-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CFP : MobiArch 2018 in conjunction with MobiSys 2018 - deadline March, 11 Datum: Wed, 31 Jan 2018 13:43:33 +0000 Von: Emmanuel Bertin <emmanuel.bertin(a)ORANGE.COM> Antwort an: emmanuel.bertin(a)ORANGE.COM An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG MobiArch 2018 Workshop on Mobility in the Evolving Internet Architecture To be held in conjunction with MobiSys 2018, June 10th, Munich, Germany www.sigmobile.org/mobisys/2018/ Call for Papers Recent years have witnessed not only mobile devices surpassing stationary Internet hosts in numbers, but also exponential growth of mobile data traffic due to ubiquitous penetration of portable devices, Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communications, user-generated content sharing, and user-centric applications such as augmented/virtual reality. In the meantime, mobile devices continue to increase in their computing power, as well as the network infrastructure is in the process of transforming from a hardware-dominated landscape to an increasingly virtualized and software-defined system with computing moving to the cloud, edge, and the fog to alleviate the processing load on the mobile devices. The increasing ability to collect and process large amounts of data pertaining to network, devices, and users is posing new challenges to network design, in which, for example, resources are provisioned in either centralized global data centers or local servers close to the network edge, or both interacting with one another. As these trends continue, a reexamination of the architecture of the mobile-centric Internet is imperative. Particularly, given new opportunities and challenges resulting from the need to support massive amounts of shared contents and processing, software defined architectures, dynamic/mobile virtualized network functions, computational/storage support from cloud and edge/fog computing, and the emerging spectrum access techniques. MobiArch 2018 has mobile Internet architectures evolving toward full exploitation of virtualization and edge/fog computing as the central theme, a new rising and challenging networking environment that mixes the design of virtualized infrastructures and application components for mobile networks/services with the mobility of users/devices and the challenging analysis of huge data volumes generated by mobile networks, devices, M2M communications, and applications. The emergence of cloud-dependent mobile services, the widespread growth of user-generated data, and the ever increasing use of cellular and wireless technologies, are leading to the collection of a vast amount of user mobility data as well as measurements of network states and service provisioning elements. In this context, various networking challenges arise, such as seamless IP mobility management, algorithm design to correlate user mobility and application usages, the online or offline exploitation of large amount of mobility and usage data from the access network and user devices, investigating possibility of offloading computing/storage tasks from mobile hosts to the cloud but also to edge nodes and both, algorithm design to correlate traffic offloading to content offloading and application offloading as a consequence of mobile data analysis, pattern inference and estimation, and multi-connectivity technology exploitation for QoS, and extreme reliability and low-latency in challenged scenarios. To tackle these challenges, various issues need to be addressed, such as efficient mobility management and optimization, multi-homing, efficient transport over heterogeneous wireless access options, users' incentives to reduce network congestion, incentives for network providers to deploy new/alternative mobile Internet infrastructures, incentives for service developers/providers to define new mobile services, efficient and quality-aware mobile multimedia content distribution, information-centric and mobility-aware networking solutions, collection and management of mobile M2M data in 3-layers infrastructures with edge/fog computing and the cloud, new business models for mobile data, security and privacy, as well as related operational concerns and legal issues. MobiArch 2018 welcomes submissions from both researchers and practitioners from academia and industry that explore challenges and advances in architectures, algorithms, protocols, middleware, and technologies in the current Internet or in the future clean-slate Internet. We also encourage work-in-progress and position papers that describe highly original ideas, present new directions, or have the potential to generate insightful provocative discussions. MobiArch uses a single blind review policy for paper review. All papers will be published in the ACM Digital Library. Topics of Interest All aspects around architectural issues and system support for mobility in the evolving Internet (e.g., towards content-centric, information-centric, edge/fog computing, and network softwarization), including but not limited to: * Architectures and protocols for mobility support at all layers (including cross-layer) of the IP stack * Architectures and protocols for mobile edge/fog computing * Architectures and protocols for efficient integration of cyber-physical sensors/actuators, edge nodes, and the cloud, with offloading opportunities in the different layers * Future Internet architecture for efficient mobility support * Mobile network management and architecture design with data analysis and learning, in particular with reference to the technical challenges of big and M2M data * Mobility in 5G (network slicing, mobility across access networks and in 5G-core, etc.) * Software defined and/or cloud-assisted mobile networking * Network virtualization in mobile Internet architecture * Connected vehicles architecture (and associated Vehicle-to-Vehicle/Vehicle-to-Infrastructure communications) * Impact of M2M communications (e.g., WiFi Direct, LTE Direct, etc.) on Internet architecture design * Mobile data sensing and fusion, in particular with reference to the technical challenges of big and M2M data * Impact of Information-Centric Networking on mobile and wireless networks * Cognitive networks design for mobile systems and applications * Seamless mobility and mobility-prediction-enhanced techniques in heterogeneous networks * Location management, positioning, and data management for wireless and mobility * Accounting, access control, security, and privacy issues, and novel technologies such as block-chains * Social, economic, scalability, and deployment issues * Large-scale pilots, deployment experiences, experimentation, and quantitative performance assessment of innovative mobile Internet architectures Workshop Co-Chairs Thomas Magedanz, Fraunhofer Institute FOKUS in Berlin, Germany Satyajayant "Jay" Misra, New Mexico State University (NMSU), USA Best Paper Award All papers will be considered for the Best Paper award. The program committee will select a number of candidates for the award among accepted papers, and select one or more award papers prior to the conference.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: CFP ADHOCNETS 2018 - deadline April, 20th 2018 Datum: Mon, 22 Jan 2018 21:05:13 +0100 Von: Nathalie Mitton <nathalie.mitton(a)inria.fr> [Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message] ========================================================================================= The 10th EAI International Conference on Ad Hoc Networks (ADHOCNETS 2018) Cains, Australia, Sept. 20-23, 2018 http://www.adhocnets.org/ CALL FOR PAPERS Paper submission deadline: April 20, 2018 OVERVIEW: The annual International Conference on Ad Hoc Networks (AdHocNets) focuses on ad hoc networking technologies and their applications. An ad hoc network is a wireless system, in which nodes (mobile or static) are connected using wireless links and cooperate to self-organize into a network without the requirement for any infrastructures such as access points or base stations. In recent years, ad hoc networks have been attracting an increased attention from the research and engineering communities. The distributed and multi-hop nature of ad hoc networking as well as the highly dynamic topology of ad hoc networks due to node mobility has introduced many formidable challenges such as scalability, quality of service, reliability and security, and energy constrained operations for the networks. Ad hoc networking covers a variety of network paradigms including mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), sensor networks, vehicular networks, underwater networks, airborne networks, underground networks, personal area networks, device-to-device (D2D) communications in 5G cellular networks, and home networks etc. It promises a wide range of applications in civilian, commercial, and military areas. The aim of the annual AdHocNets conference is to provide a forum that brings together researchers and engineers from academia, government laboratories as well as industry to meet, network, exchange ideas and present their recent research work, and discuss future directions on all aspects of ad hoc networks.

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 1, 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.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Communication for Connected and Cooperative Driving workshop of the 29th IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium Datum: Wed, 24 Jan 2018 15:05:32 +0100 Von: Benoit HILT <benoit.hilt(a)UHA.FR> Antwort an: Benoit HILT <benoit.hilt(a)UHA.FR> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Apologies for multiple reception Please consider to submit a paper to the Communication for Connected and Cooperative Driving <http://www.2018iv.org/WS24.html> workshop of the 29th IEEE Intelligent Vehicles Symposium <http://www.2018iv.org/Program.html> Scope and Goal This workshop is dedicated to the requirements, recent advances and prospective work in communication technologies aiming to make cooperative driving possible. Nowadays intelligent vehicles sense their neighboring environment exclusively with onboard sensors. Due to intrinsic (range) or external (obstruction by static or dynamic obstacles) limitations, the area and the accuracy of this sensing are limited. The exchange of locally sensed information between several communicating nodes (i.e. vehicles, infrastructure) can help to overcome temporary blindness or extend the perception area. However, candidate communication technologies (Cellular (4G, 5G), WiFi, etc.) have to be adapted to the use cases of cooperative driving and intelligent transportation systems. The goal of this workshop is to gather and discuss scientific work about communication technologies suited for V2X communication in the constrained area of cooperative collaborating vehicles. Also, security issues which come up with the online connectivity of vehicles, shall be discussed. Topics of Interest 4G, 5G, Wifi, Light-based V2X communication for cooperative driving Use case definitions for intelligent vehicles Security issues in communication for cooperative driving V2X communication performance test and evaluation (packet loss, latency, drop out, etc. Paper submission will be done through IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Society (ITSS) Conference Management System <http://its.papercept.net/conferences/scripts/start.pl> with code 27iv2 (see linked Call for Paper <http://www.2018iv.org/images/CFP_LAUFFENBURGER_Communication%20for%20Connec…>for more details). ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Call For Papers Datum: Tue, 23 Jan 2018 01:23:25 +0800 Von: Yuanfang Chen <callforpaper2018(a)GMAIL.COM> Antwort an: Yuanfang Chen <callforpaper2018(a)GMAIL.COM> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG ========================================================================= Special Issue on Mobile Edge Computing for Vehicular Networks IEEE Vehicular Technology Magazine Special Issue ========================================================================= Call For Papers: Driven by the “connected vehicles” vision, smart vehicles are on the road equipped with advanced computation units, multiple communications technologies, intelligent sensing platforms, and human computer interaction devices. With the aid of these equipment and technologies, vehicles can offer many new applications and services, such as active driving safety assistance, self-driving cars, smart parking, road traffic monitoring, and fleet management. In addition, there are new content-centric applications for drivers and passengers. These applications typically require intensive computation and demand low-delay data processing, e.g., video analytics with real-time interaction, image-aided navigation, natural language processing, and interactive gaming. Such applications pose great challenges to the existing vehicular terminals and networks, especially in terms of their computational resources. To meet the ever-increasing computation demand in vehicular networks, Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) is emerging as a very promising solution. With the dramatically enhanced capacity, MEC is expected to bring a variety of benefits to vehicular networks, including ultra-low latency between smart devices/vehicles and edge cloud for real-time, interactive, and mission-critical applications; privacy and security in local communications to access mobile edge cloud, and big data analytics at the point of capture for novel safety-oriented applications. Despite the potentially significant benefits of MEC, many challenges need to be addressed in this new paradigm. A typical challenge is related to computation offloading which should consider mobility-awareness and incentive in MEC for vehicular networks. In addition, various computation tasks may have different resource requirements, including the computation resources for task execution and the communication resources for task transmission. In this case, a joint optimization problem should consider both communications, computation and control dimensions. The objective of this special issue is to present the latest results, insights, and perspectives on the new area of mobile edge computing for vehicular networks. We are soliciting original contributions that have not been published and are not currently under consideration by any other journals. The topics of interest include, but not limited to: · New concepts, architecture, and principles · Cloud-edge integration and techniques for vehicular networks · Software defined vehicular networks with mobile edge computing · Edge computing supporting big data analytics for novel applications and services (e.g., traffic, surveillance, infrastructure planning) · Edge computing supporting machine learning, deep learning for self-driving cars · Communications, computation and storage resource management and optimization · Computation offloading, traffic offloading · Communications, computation, control convergence · Edge caching for content sharing in vehicular networks · Energy management, energy efficiency and greenness-performance tradeoff · Security and privacy · QoS/QoE provision · Use cases/applications highlighting the potential of mobile edge computing for vehicular networks Submissions should clearly identify how they relate to topics under consideration in this special issue. Contributions describing an overall working system and reporting real world deployment experiences are particularly of interest. Submitted papers should contain state-of-the-art research material presented in a tutorial or survey style. Manuscript format must adhere to the IEEE VT Magazine submission guidelines. Articles should be about 3,000 to 4,000 words long with 5-10 figures and 10-15 references. The use of mathematical equations should be limited to three. Submit papers using ScholarOne Manuscripts™: http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/vtm-ieee Important Dates Submission Deadline: 1 June 2018 First Editorial Decision: 1 September 2018 Acceptance Notification: 1 November 2018 Final Manuscript Due: 1 December 2018 Publication: Spring 2019 ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Cfp Special Issue on Recent Advances on Social Internet of Vehicles (IEEE Internet of Things Journal) Datum: Mon, 22 Jan 2018 12:53:30 +0000 Von: Anna Maria Vegni <annamaria.vegni(a)UNIROMA3.IT> Antwort an: Anna Maria Vegni <annamaria.vegni(a)UNIROMA3.IT> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG ========================================================= Special Issue on Recent Advances on Social Internet of Vehicles http://ieee-iotj.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/SI_-IoTJ_CFP_Social-Interne… IEEE Internet of Things Journal ========================================================= Call for papers: Recently, Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications have been moving towards a network of intelligent objects with social capabilities, defined as the Social Internet of Things (SIoT). Different types of relationships exist among things, thus forming social connections such as parental-object relationship, co-work-object relationship, co-location-object relationship, ownership-object relationship, and so on. The definition of Internet of Vehicles (IoV) applies to an interconnected set of vehicles providing information for common services such as traffic management and road safety. The Social IoV (SIoV) is an extension to the concept of IoV, where the social networking concepts of SioT are applied to IoV. In SIoV, smart vehicles build social relationships with other social objects they might come into contact, including other vehicles and Road Side Units, with the intent of creating an overlay social network to be exploited for information search and dissemination for vehicular applications. In SIoV scenario, several challenges are worth to be investigated. SIoV paradigm is still in its infancy but there is a concrete interest by the research community, automotive industry and social application providers to develop SIoV applications. The special issue on Recent Advances on Social Internet of Vehicles accepts papers dealing with the following topics of interest (but not limited to): * Data dissemination mechanisms in SIoV * Social-based network protocols for SIoV * Privacy, trust, and security issues in SIoV * Autonomic service discovery in SIoV * Data management, big data processing and analytics in SIoV * Integration of SIoV and cloud/edge/fog/on-board computing environment * SIoV in 5G and vehicular network environments * Test-bed and simulation tools for SIoV * New Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) and services based on SIoV Important dates: Manuscript Submission: March 1, 2018 1st Reviews Due: May 15, 2018 Revision Due: June 15, 2018 2nd Reviews Due/Notification: July 15, 2018 Final Manuscript Due: August 15, 2018 Publication Date: 2018 Submission: All original manuscripts must be submitted electronically through IEEE Manuscript Central, https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/iot All manuscripts will be peer reviewed and must follow the standard guidelines for manuscript preparation and submission available at http://iotjournal.weebly.com/guidelines-for-authors.html Select the “Recent Advances on Social Internet of Vehicles” special issue, when uploading your manuscript.
