-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: ACM MobiSys Workshop LocNet 2018: extended submission deadline Datum: Wed, 7 Mar 2018 22:58:55 +0100 Von: Joerg Widmer <joerg.widmer(a)IMDEA.ORG> Antwort an: Mailing List der GI FG 3.3.1 "Kommunikation und Verteilte Systeme" <KUVS-L(a)LISTSERV.UNI-HEIDELBERG.DE> An: KUVS-L(a)LISTSERV.UNI-HEIDELBERG.DE ======================================================================== *Call for Papers* Workshop on Location Systems for Management and Control of Mobile and Wireless Networks (LocNet) at ACM MobiSys 2018, Munich, Germany *Submission deadline extended to March 23, 2018* ======================================================================== Wireless location systems have been studied extensively in recent years and are advancing at a rapid pace. State-of-the-art location systems now achieve very high levels of accuracy down to the decimeter-level and below, even without dedicated positioning hardware. Positioning data can bring dramatic benefits to mobile networks, not just for conventional data analytics and location-based services running over the network, but for the management and control of the network itself. Location information can be used to optimize resource allocation and network control decisions as networks become denser and support high-order MIMO and wider bandwidths, which allows devices to accurately measure the wireless environment. It is particularly relevant for emerging technologies such as millimeter-wave communication systems, where the antenna configuration, availability of paths, access points to associate with, and the data rate strongly depend on the location of the devices and on reflectors and obstacles in the environment. Location information can also be used, for example, for anticipatory networking mechanisms in mobile networks, where resource allocation decisions are based on the predicted future state of the network and users. Localizing terminals, people and things accurately and reliably allows to better deploy, provision, and manage mobile and wireless networks, thus increasing their reliability and scalability. The goal of the workshop is to bring together researchers from academia and industry to present and discuss the latest developments in wireless location systems, their impact on network management and control to enhance the efficiency of communication networks, and the inherent technical challenges. The program seeks original and unpublished work not currently under review by another technical journal/magazine/conference. Topics include, but are not limited to: - Location and positioning algorithms - Positioning in mobile networks - Millimeter-wave location systems - Visible light location systems - Anticipatory networking mechanisms based on location information - Network management and control based on location information - Network architectures and localization protocols to support use of location data - Localization and network optimization for IoT devices (including LoRa) - Joint millimeter-wave communication and radar - Wi-Fi, RFID, and other types of positioning systems - Backscatter localization - Location data fusion of cellular, WiFi and other technologies - Fusion with inertial sensors - Positioning systems with joint use of time, angle, and other observations - Location error modeling and measurement - Signal processing for location systems - Scalability of location systems - Energy efficiency of location systems - Experience from measurements and experimental results - Open testbeds for experimentation - Open-source location system implementations - Open-source location-based network management systems *Important dates* Paper submissions due: March 23, 2018 Notification of acceptance: April 18, 2018 Camera ready papers due: May 4, 2018 Workshops date: June 10/June 15, 2018 *Submission guidelines* The workshop solicits technical papers with a maximum length of 6 pages, and extended abstracts of 2 pages for posters and demos.

The special sessions are the following. GNSS Railway Session conveners: Juliette Marais, IFSTTAR (FR), Omar Garcia Crespillo, DLR (DE), Cosimo Stallo Radiolabs (IT) Railways already relies on satellite-based localization systems but mostly for non-safety related applications. However, driven by economic reasons, the use of these systems for more stringent services and, in particular, in signalling system is seriously investigated today and tested all around the world. The developments have made huge progress in the past years: from global demonstration of concept to the development of elements of the systems (hybrid localization units, integrity monitoring schemes, augmentation systems). A number of technical solutions have been developed and demonstrated. Some real advances are noticed, in particular, in the ERTMS framework, considering the use of GNSS-based virtual balises. But GNSS is also investigated for other services such as train integrity. The session will present the latest results and projects dealing with the introduction of GNSS in the railways. Papers are expected to focus on technical issues for performance enhancement as well as safety demonstrations, experimental results of GNSS reception characterization or operational system demonstration. New challenges in wireless communications for Railways Session conveners: M. Berbineau, IFSTTAR (FR), Ke Guan, BJTU (CN), José Soler, DTU (DK) To increase quality, reliability, safety and security of railway systems while increasing accessibility and productivity, we observe ever increasing fluxes of information between various stakeholders, central databases and field devices widely distributed along infrastructures and inside trains. This trend is accentuated by the development of automation and driverless systems and autonomous trains. Robustness, reliability, high data rate, spectral efficiency, optimization of radio resource usages, low latency and low energy consumption are of significant interest for railway applications. Evaluating the performance and new challenges of wireless communication systems requires radio channel models for numerous propagation environments and in very different frequencies (from 1 GHz to mmW for example). Furthermore, dedicated antennas need to be developed with adequate performance and placement. Innovative solutions at network level are also needed (heterogeneous handover, new architecture, scheduling aspects, etc.) and incorporation of new paradigms such as SDN or NFV, may impact current service offer and enable new ones. Safety and security are also strong requirements for wireless communications for railways including cybersecurity. The session will present the latest results and projects addressing these challenges. Maritime communications Session conveners: Michele Fiorini, EIT (IT) The purpose of the special session is to facilitate interactions between university researchers, students, start-ups, NGOs, SMEs, industries and administrations dealing within the maritime domain. The topics relevant to the session spans from systems (CSS, EZZ protection, AIS, satellite surveillance, e-NAV etc..) to services (SAR, VTS, VDES, Single Window -Port Management-, anti-piracy, etc..) and all combinations. Innovative concepts and practical applications are particularly welcome. Reliability of vehicular communications Session conveners: Jacek Rak, Gdansk University of Technology (PL) The purpose of this special session is to enable discussions among researchers from academia and industry on reliability of vehicular communications, which still remains an extraordinary challenge especially under unfavourable conditions. Special focus of the session is put on the issue of delivery of data to intended receivers in accordance to requirements of applications. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Submission procedure: Authors are invited to submit regular papers (7 pages) or demo abstracts (2 pages), describing original, previously unpublished research or demos, not currently under review by another conference or journal. The submission is done using the <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=itst2018> Easy Chair system. All accepted papers will be included in IEEE Xplore and will be indexed by EI.

Today, the state-of-the-art in computational models that, for example, recognize a face, track user emotions, or monitor physical activities are increasingly based on deep learning principles and algorithms. Unfortunately, deep models typically exert severe demands on local device resources and this conventionally limits their adoption within mobile and embedded platforms. As a result, in far too many cases existing systems process sensor data with machine learning methods that have been superseded by deep learning years ago. Because the robustness and quality of sensory perception and reasoning is so critical to mobile computing, it is critical for this community to begin the careful study of two core technical questions. First, how should deep learning learning principles and algorithms be applied to sensor inference problems that are central to this class of computing? This includes a combination of applications of learning some of which are familiar to other domains (such as the processing image and audio), in addition to those more uniquely tied to wearable and mobile systems (e.g., activity recognition). Second, what is required for current -- and future -- deep learning innovations to be either simplified or efficiently integrated into a variety of mobile resource-constrained systems? At heart, this MobiSys 2018 co-located workshop aims to consider these two broad themes; more specific topics of interest, include, but are not limited to: = Compression of Deep Model Architectures = Neural-based Approaches for Modeling User Activities and Behavior = Quantized and Low-precision Neural Networks (including Binary Networks) = Mobile Vision supported by Convolutional and Deep Networks = Optimizing Commodity Processors (GPUs, DSPs etc.) for Deep Models = Audio Analysis and Understanding through Recurrent and Deep Architectures = Hardware Accelerators for Deep Neural Networks = Distributed Deep Model Training Approaches = Applications of Deep Neural Networks with Real-time Requirements = Deep Models of Speech and Dialog Interaction or Mobile Devices = Partitioned Networks for Improved Cloud- and Processor-Offloading = Operating System Support for Resource Management at Inference-time FULL PAPER SUBMISSIONS Solicited submissions include: full technical workshop papers, descriptions of work-in-progress, and white position papers. Maximum length of such submissions is 6 pages, and if accepted they will be published by ACM and appear in the ACM Digital Library. Submission Deadline: April 2nd, 2018 – 11:59PM AOE [extended deadline] Author Notification: April 20th, 2018 POSTER/DEMO SUBMISSIONS Poster/demo abstracts are also welcome and encouraged. Abstracts will be limited to 2 pages but will only be published on the workshop website (not the ACM DL). Deadlines for poster/demo submissions will remain open until the early registration deadline for the MobiSys 2018 conference closes.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [CFP] LocNet Workshop at ACM MobiSys'18 Datum: Mon, 5 Mar 2018 10:48:51 +0100 Von: Claudio Fiandrino <claudio.fiandrino(a)IMDEA.ORG> Antwort an: Claudio Fiandrino <claudio.fiandrino(a)IMDEA.ORG> Organisation: IMDEA NETWORKS Institute An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG *[Our sincere apologies if you receive multiple copies of this announcement]* ======================================================================== *Call for Papers* Workshop on Location Systems for Management and Control of Mobile and Wireless Networks (LocNet) at ACM MobiSys, June 15, 2018, Munich, Germany Proceedings will appear in the ACM Digital Library ======================================================================== https://www.sigmobile.org/mobisys/2018/workshops/locnet18/ Wireless location systems have been studied extensively in recent years and are advancing at a rapid pace. State-of-the-art location systems now achieve very high levels of accuracy down to the decimeter-level and below, even without dedicated positioning hardware. Positioning data can bring dramatic benefits to mobile networks, not just for conventional data analytics and location-based services running over the network, but for the management and control of the network itself. Location information can be used to optimize resource allocation and network control decisions as networks become denser and support high-order MIMO and wider bandwidths, which allows devices to accurately measure the wireless environment. It is particularly relevant for emerging technologies such as millimeter-wave communication systems, where the antenna configuration, availability of paths, access points to associate with, and the data rate strongly depend on the location of the devices and on reflectors and obstacles in the environment. Location information can also be used, for example, for anticipatory networking mechanisms in mobile networks, where resource allocation decisions are based on the predicted future state of the network and users. Localizing terminals, people and things accurately and reliably allows to better deploy, provision, and manage mobile and wireless networks, thus increasing their reliability and scalability. The goal of the workshop is to bring together researchers from academia and industry to present and discuss the latest developments in wireless location systems, their impact on network management and control to enhance the efficiency of communication networks, and the inherent technical challenges. The program seeks original and unpublished work not currently under review by another technical journal/magazine/conference. Topics include, but are not limited to: - Location and positioning algorithms - Positioning in mobile networks - Millimeter-wave location systems - Visible light location systems - Anticipatory networking mechanisms based on location information - Network management and control based on location information - Network architectures and localization protocols to support use of location data - Localization and network optimization for IoT devices (including LoRa) - Joint millimeter-wave communication and radar - Wi-Fi, RFID, and other types of positioning systems - Backscatter localization - Location data fusion of cellular, WiFi and other technologies - Fusion with inertial sensors - Positioning systems with joint use of time, angle, and other observations - Location error modeling and measurement - Signal processing for location systems - Scalability of location systems - Energy efficiency of location systems - Experience from measurements and experimental results - Open testbeds for experimentation - Open-source location system implementations - Open-source location-based network management systems *Submission Instructions* The workshop solicits technical papers with a maximum length of 6 pages, and extended abstracts of 2 pages for posters and demos.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] The 8th ACM MobiHoc 2018 Workshop on Pervasive Wireless Healthcare (MobileHealth 2018) Datum: Sat, 3 Mar 2018 17:19:10 -0500 Von: Sa ïd Yahiaoui <syahiaoui(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Sa ïd Yahiaoui <syahiaoui(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG CALL FOR PAPERS 8th ACM MobiHoc Workshop on Pervasive Wireless Healthcare (MobileHealth 2018) June 25, 2018, Los Angeles, USA Health cost represents a considerable ratio in the economic budget of developed countries, and certain tendency studies are not optimistic about an improvement in the situation. Average age of the population tends to increase and the number of people requiring more or less care intensive medical monitoring is not small. This increases overall cost of medical care. No doubt, using socio-medical establishments to place people at risk under surveillance is impractical for cost reasons, but also for reasons of quality of life. Many of these people are fully autonomous, though weakened. Their psychological confinement due to the presence of nursing staff would be a breach of their freedom. Therefore, partially replacing the assistance of nursing staff by small health surveillance and communication equipment like sensors, networks, monitoring software could be cost effective and would increase life standard. The objective is to develop and implement innovative solutions based on information technologies and wireless communication for the benefit of those needing medical permanence. Recent Advances in technology has led to the development of small, intelligent, wearable sensors capable of remotely performing critical health monitoring tasks and then transmitting patient’s data back to health care centres over wireless medium. Such wireless health monitoring platforms aim to continuously monitor mobile patients needing permanent surveillance. Patients benefit from continuous ambulatory monitoring as a part of a diagnostic procedure, optimal maintenance of a chronic condition or during supervised recovery from an acute event or surgical procedure. However, to set up such platforms several issues along the communication chain should be resolved. The acquisition of medical information via a set of wireless sensors embedded in the patient himself, the treatment and use of this information either by a local contractor equipment or offset after transfer in 3G/4G/5G and/or WiFi/HEW connection to a data server, the access to the collected data, ...etc. are some of the important challenges that we have to consider. Each level represents a complex subsystem with a local hierarchy employed to ensure efficiency, portability, security, and reduced cost. MobileHealth workshop aims to provide a forum for the interaction of these multiple areas as an important chance to discuss and understand what aspects have to be considered to provide effective pervasive wireless healthcare systems. The theme of the 2018 edition of MobileHealth is Improving the Smart Cities Citizens Healthcare. The Technical program topics include, but are not limited to: * Mobile devices for healthcare * Wearable and Implantable * Wireless sensors for healthcare * Communications and computing infrastructure for mobile healthcare apps * Protocols for wireless healthcare * Big data analytics * Realizations and Platforms * Scalability, performance and reliability of mobile healthcare apps * Pervasive Wireless communications in healthcare * Service and device discovery * Data fusion and context elaboration * Wireless monitoring and ambient assisted applications for healthcare * Standards for mobile healthcare * Energy Efficiency in wireless health monitoring * Pervasive healthcare systems and services * Authentication and sensors monitoring * Confidentiality and data security * Mobile interfaces for data visualisation GENERAL CO-CHAIRS Soufiene Djahel, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK Syed Hassan Ahmed, University of Central Florida, USA TECHNICAL PROGRAM CO-CHAIRS Mahasweta Sarkar, San Diego State University, USA Zilong Ye, California State University, Los Angeles, USA STEERING COMMITTEE Saadi Boudjit, University of Paris 13, France Philippe Jacquet, Bell Labs Alcatel-Lucent, France Anis Laouiti, Telecom Sud Paris, France Paul Muhlethaler, Telecom Sud Paris, France Majid Sarrafzadeh, UCLA Wireless Health Institute, USA PUBLICITY CO-CHAIRS Youcef Begriche, Telecom Paris-Tech, France Said Yahiaoui, Cerist Research Center, Algeria TECHNICAL PROGRAM COMMITTEE Marwen Abdennebi, University of Paris 13, France Sasan Adibi, Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, Australia Saadi Boudjit,, University of Paris 13, France Syin Chan, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore Zainul Charbiwala, IBM Research, India Mooi Choo Chuah, Lehigh University, USA Avik Ghose Tata Consultancy Services, India Roozbeh Jafari, University of Texas at Dallas, USA Anis Laouiti, Telecom SudParis, France Gustavo Marfia, University of Bologna, Italy Hassine Moungla, Paris Descartes University, France Ertan Onur, Delft University of Technology, The Netherlands Amir Qayyum, CUST, Islamabad, Pakistan Kevin Stanley, University of Saskatchewan, Canada Sim-Hui Tee, Multimedia University, Malaysia Apinun Tunpsan, Asian Institute of Technology, Thailand Egon L.
