Deadline extended to June 17 !!! *** CALL FOR PAPERS *** The 4th ACM International Conference on Information Technology for Social Good (GoodIT 2024) is a premier international forum for researchers, practitioners, and educators to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends and concerns, as well as practical challenges encountered and solutions adopted in the fields of data and technology for addressing Social Good and the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Within the context of the conference, we are organizing a special track ''Avoiding an Internet of Trash'', focused on a sustainable Internet of Things. We are witnessing an ever-increasing number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices with predictions of between 50 and 125 billion IoT devices by 2030. There is currently no information about how long these devices will be used. If one goes by the lifetime of smartphones or laptops, this could be in the order of 4 to 6 years. Without any action, this situation could produce a large amount of electronic waste. Many factors contribute to this situation, including issues of planned obsolescence of devices, software maintenance, volatile businesses, poor battery capacity, and unnecessary gadgets. This challenge is further compounded by the fact that there is often limited interoperability between devices and little reuse as well as limited recycling of unused IoT devices. This special track aims at creating a forum for discussion on how to address all these issues. We welcome submissions on a wide range of topics, including but not limited to: - Sustainable powering of IoT devices and energy harvesting; - Sustainable electronics for IoT devices; - Methods and frameworks for reprogramming of IoT devices; - Modular and reconfigurable IoT device architectures; - Interoperability of IoT devices, protocols, and frameworks; - Environmental impact of IoT devices; - Sustainable deployment of IoT applications; - Analysis of the usefulness of IoT devices and applications; - IoT applications for sustainability; - Behavioural and societal aspects in the sustainable use of IoT devices and resources. *** SUBMISSION GUIDELINES *** Papers submitted to this special track must be unpublished original works. Submitted papers must satisfy the same criteria in terms of paper length and formatting requirements as papers submitted to the main conference (more details are provided at https://blogs.uni-bremen.de/goodit2024/submission-of-papers/). Accepted papers must follow the formatting instructions of the main conference. At least one of the authors of all accepted papers must register and present the work at the conference on site; otherwise, the paper will not be published in the proceedings. All accepted and presented papers will be included in the conference proceedings published in the ACM Digital Library. *** IMPORTANT DATES *** - Paper submission deadline: June 17, 2024 - Notification of acceptance: July 8, 2024 - Camera-ready deadline: July 19, 2024 *** ORGANIZERS OF THE SPECIAL TRACK *** - Dirk Pesch (University College Cork, Ireland) - Carlo Alberto Boano (Graz University of Technology, Austria) *** TPC MEMBERS *** - Michael Baddeley (TII, United Arab Emirates) - Anna Förster (University of Bremen, Germany) - Daniela Iacopino (Tyndall National Institute, Ireland) - Oana Iova (INSA Lyon, France) - Ramona Marfievici (Digital Catapult, United Kingdom) - Brendan O’Flynn (Tyndall National Institute, Ireland) - Michael Stead (Lancaster University, United Kingdom) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Our sincere apologies if you receive multiple copies of the call ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

They play a crucial role in facilitating communication, enabling access to information, and powering the unseen minutiae of everyday life. Securing these networks and devices is of utmost importance to ensure the safety and privacy of individuals, businesses, and governments. However, despite significant recent progress recognizing the need for security in such systems, it is often still an afterthought. Furthermore, emerging communication technologies such as 6G, cloud computing, and the inexorable rise of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning present new security threats and privacy issues that require innovative solutions. Moreover, unconventional threats and vulnerabilities can circumvent established security and privacy dogmas, exposing key weaknesses in critical systems. The Workshop on Security and Privacy in Connected Embedded Systems (SPICES) aims to address these challenges and foster interdisciplinary collaboration to explore innovative solutions for securing wireless and embedded systems. The workshop provides a platform for researchers, practitioners, and industry experts to discuss the latest topics and challenges in wireless and embedded systems security and privacy – not only on how existing systems shouldbe secured but also exploring important security aspects (or lack of) in current research trends.We welcome submissions with unusual takes on existing techniques, proposals for novel security and privacy solutions, exposure of atypical weaknesses, and the application of unconventional approaches to solving next-generation wireless security challenges. We invite researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to submit papers (up to 6 pages, double-column) focusing on topics such as: - Wireless security for cyber-physical systems (e.g., factory automation). - AI / Machine Learning assisted security and privacy at the physical, MAC, or networking layers. - Generative Adversarial Networks for wireless and embedded security. - Security protocols for wireless communications and networking. - RF Jamming attacks and defenses for wireless networks. - Localization and positioning privacy (GPS, UWB, BLE 5.2, etc.). - Measurement of embedded computing privacy leakage. - Privacy-enhancing and anonymization techniques in embedded computing. - Security and privacy techniques in embedded computing. - Privacy-enhanced data analytics and storage in embedded computing. - Privacy-preservation methods on context (e.g., location, energy) changes in embedded computing. - Offensive security and side-channel attacks on IoT devices. - Security and possible weaknesses in 6G cellular networks (3GPP, ETSI, IEEE, etc.). - Testbed and experimental platforms for wireless security. - Vehicular network security (e.g., drones, automotive, avionics, autonomous driving). - Security for UAV swarms (i.e., distributed, highly mobile systems). - Communications security in satellite systems. - Cryptography primitives and lightweight protocols for embedded IoT devices. - Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS). - Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs). - Internet of the Things (IoT) security and privacy. - Smart Contracts and Blockchain for wireless communication. - Multi-factor authentication methods for embedded IoT devices. - Zero-knowledge and zero-trust techniques in embedded computing. We especially encourage submissions that aim to broaden the discussion outside of traditional security and privacy challenges and approaches. Examples could include, but are not limited to: - Bio-inspired security solutions. - Visual/movement-based security solutions. - Environment-adaptive security. - Underwater communications security. - Visual Light Communication (VLC)-based security. - Quantum-based security. Well-reasoned arguments or preliminary evaluations are sufficient for this workshop. * * **** Submission Instructions **** Submitted papers must contain at most six pages (US letter, 9pt font size, double-column format, following the ACM master article template), including all figures, tables, and references.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: 5th CFP: Special track on BLOCKCHAIN AND DECENTRALIZED TECHNOLOGIES FOR SOCIAL GOOD (BANDIT) @ ACM GoodIT 2024 Datum: Mon, 3 Jun 2024 11:08:38 +0200 Von: Michienzi Andrea <andrea.michienzi(a)DI.UNIPI.IT> Antwort an: Mailing List der GI FG 3.3.1 "Kommunikation und Verteilte Systeme" <KUVS-L(a)LISTSERV.UNI-HEIDELBERG.DE> Organisation: Università di Pisa - Department of Computer Science An: KUVS-L(a)LISTSERV.UNI-HEIDELBERG.DE ### NEW [FIRM] DEADLINE CFP: Special track on BLOCKCHAIN AND DECENTRALIZED TECHNOLOGIES FOR SOCIAL GOOD (BANDIT) @ ACM GoodIT 2024 https://sites.google.com/unipi.it/bandit2024/home 4-6 September 2024, Bremen, Germany Accepted papers will be included in the ACM Digital Library. Special issues associated with the conference are being organized. Selected papers will be invited to submit an extended version to those journals. ## MOTIVATION AND RATIONALE Social good has a big impact on society. Indeed, the term “social good” refers to something which benefits the general public, and at the same time, it is something which reflects and respects their wishes, being ‘from’ the people. The social good can be envisioned as global citizens uniting to unlock the potential of individuals through collaboration to create a positive societal impact. Much interest has been produced in the last years, and new proposals and technologies have been considered. Among them, Blockchain, distributed ledger technologies, and decentralized technologies in general, such as IPFS, have been considered to improve all the aspects of the social good. Blockchain and decentralized technologies have had a big impact on the world. In particular, Blockchain technology has been applied to several fields, such as e-health, IoT, media, etc. The big question around the definition of this track is: “How does the blockchain have a big impact on the social good? And how can decentralization improve the ICT industries?”. The track manages the possible application of decentralized technologies in research fields included in the global scope of the social good. These address sectors such as agriculture, supply chain traceability, energy, health, property rights and digital identities, ranging from a global to a local scope. More recently in the realm of civic participation, civil society initiatives and social economies, blockchains are being tested to implement collaborative models: social finance and local currency schemes, peer-to-peer production and exchanges, decentralized organizations management and decision-making, purpose-driven tokens that incentivize pro-social behaviors, etc. Examples of applications involving considerable experimentation and innovation are complementary and community currency systems. These systems aim to support humanitarian aid initiatives, self-organizing local community development and basic income projects. These involve novel tokenization mechanisms based on smart contracts that necessitate further investigation and discussion. While the revolutionary potential of blockchains has been largely tested (in the financial domain in particular), its possible applications in social domains and to address sustainability challenges have been explored far less. This special track aims to explore and debate the main concepts and implications of blockchain technology, how it can be a driver of innovation and its positive effects on our societies, industry, legal systems and economic/financial systems. Also, the risks and uncertainties that blockchain arrows are welcome to be debated in this section, as regards: conflicts arising from the introduction, in mutable social interactions, of logics based on tokenization, automation, and trustlessness; energy consumption and environmental impacts; technical accessibility and digital skill divides. This special track will provide both academic and industry researchers with a forum to discuss the impact, future, and limitations of blockchain technology regarding its effect across specific industries, economics, finance, law, civil society initiatives, social economies, the not-for-profit sector, etc. ## TOPICS * Blockchain and decentralized architectures and algorithms * Protocols for management and access using blockchain * Consensus and mining algorithms suited for Social Good * NFT and Web3 for Social Good * Security and privacy in Blockchains and decentralized platforms * Blockchain application in civic participation initiatives in local communities * Blockchain application in social and collaborative economies in local communities * Blockchain-based local currencies for financial inclusion * Tokenomics and collaborative incentives models for local communities * Decentralized Autonomous Organizations for smart communities * Voting and opinion formation systems * Blockchain applications for environmental sustainability * Blockchain applications for public administration * Blockchain applications in IoT * Blockchain applications in healthcare * Blockchain applications in business * Blockchain applications in supply-chain management and certification * Blockchain applications in the industry * Blockchain applications in mobile communications and wireless networks * Decentralized Technology for Social Media * Blockchain in Social Networking * AI for blockchain ## IMPORTANT DATES * Papers submission: 17th June 2024 * Notification of acceptance: 8th July 2024 * Camera-ready paper due: 19th July 2024

I4.0 fosters a deep change in the rigid organization model of the factory. The multiple implications of the “connected factory" concept will lead the production environments to unexpected developments, impacting both OT and IT layers. Connected and interacting objects will populate the factories of the future. In the prospected landscape, a progressive and decisive integration of the IT and OT layers is expected to occur, which practitioners are used to refer to as IT/OT convergence, stressing the shortening of the gap (both physical and conceptual) between the manufacturing processes running at the OT layer, and storage, networking, computing resources, and business-oriented software suites populating the IT layer. In this context, emergent paradigms, approaches, and technologies like artificial intelligence (AI), privacy-enhancing technologies (PET), cybersecurity, blockchain (BC), Cloud Continuum, Zero Defect Manufacturing (ZDM), Zero Waste Manufacturing, Industrial Sustainability, IIoT Platforms, Advanced Service Orchestration in industrial deployments, 5G/6G communication, Digital Twins (DT), and metaverse are key enablers shaping the development of an IT/OT convergent smart factory. The focus of SITE is on the convergence of IT and OT layers within the modern Industry 4/5.0 compliant factories, and the systems and technologies that ease or enable this revolutionary integration. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: - Application of Industrial Cloud Continuum. - IIoT Platforms and Service Orchestration. - 5G/6G communication for industrial deployments. - Computing continuum for smart cities services. - Digital Twins for industrial process or product monitoring. - Edge data center deployment in industrial environments. - ML- and AI-based approaches cloud/edge-based smart city applications. - AI-driven models, architectures, and frameworks for edge computing. - Reliable communication protocols in industrial production lines. - Design and evaluation tools for scalability and efficient resource allocation in Industry 4/5.0. - ML-evaluation for automatic road anomaly detection and predictive maintenance. - Models and paradigms for the management of cloud/MEC services within/between industrial data. - Blockchain solutions for secure and reliable transactions between counterparts in data sharing/trading. - Security and privacy techniques for IT/OT convergence in smart factory applications. - Post-quantum security and privacy for Industrial applications. - Zero Waste/Defect Manufacturing. - IIoT for the sustainability of modern industrial production plants. - Green Manufacturing in Industry 5.0 deployments. - Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Networks in Industry 5.0 environments. - Interoperability of Digital Twins in the manufacturing industrial process. *Submission Guidelines* Authors are invited to submit original technical papers for publication in SITE 2024.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [InternetTC] [CFP] Sensing and Data Platforms: what is ahead of us (Special Session 11), IEEE MetroAgriFor Workshop Datum: Mon, 27 May 2024 12:43:58 +0000 Von: Lorenzo Palazzetti <000002891733877c-dmarc-request(a)COMSOC-LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG> An: itc(a)COMSOC.ORG [Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message] Dear Researchers/Authors, You are invited to submit your high-quality research findings to the Special Session 11: "Sensing and Data Platforms: what is ahead of us" of the 2024 IEEE International Workshop on Metrology for Agriculture and Forestry (MetroAgriFor). October 29-31, 2024 - Padua, Italy Website: https://www.metroagrifor.org/special-session-11 <https://www.metroagrifor.org/special-session-11> Aims and Scope The role of sensing, including in-situ, proximity and remote, is increasingly crucial for agriculture and forestry. Huge investments have been made in this field - consider for instance satellite constellations for remote sensing, the thriving UAV sector, and the dawning sector of terrestrial rovers - and benefits are evident in several application areas. The other side of the coin is represented by the data platforms used to collect, store, and process the huge amount of data coming from sensing platforms. Such data platforms should, among others, provide interoperable data through open interfaces (APIs) to different classes of users, but such functionality has not yet reached its full potential. In Europe, there have been several recent initiatives focused on enhancing data sharing and processing. One key effort is the European Strategy for Data, which introduces the concept of a Common European Data Space and includes actions to deploy Agriculture and Green Deal sectorial data spaces. Additionally, the Horizon Europe framework is providing funding for the establishment of European Partnerships that bring together the European Commission with private and/or public partners to address pressing challenges through collaborative research and innovation projects. One such partnership, the European Partnership for Agriculture of Data, aims to support sustainable agriculture in the EU and improve policy monitoring and implementation by leveraging digital and data technologies for environmental observation. The goal of this special session is to investigate the potential and the challenges of both sensing and data platforms, looking to future developments, and also considering economic and legal aspects to be carefully taken into consideration. Contributions are expected to contribute to, but are not limited to, the following topics: - sensing systems, both local and remote, and recent developments; - state of the art of data platforms linked to sensing systems, standards, interoperability enablers, and sustainability of their business model; - GEOSS Data Sharing and Management Principles, FAIR principles, and other interoperable solutions with the potential to further push the use of sensing data; - economic and legal aspects that can fuel or limit the use of such systems. Important dates - Extended Abstract Submission: June 10, 2024 - Extended Abstract Notification: September 1, 2024 - Final Paper Submission: September 20, 2024 Submission Instruction Authors should prepare an Extended Abstract (4-5 pages) that clearly indicates the originality of the contribution and the relevance of the work. The Extended Abstract should include the title of the paper, names and affiliations of the authors, an abstract, keywords, an introduction describing the nature of the problem and the state of the art in the field of interest, a description of the contribution, the results achieved and their applicability, conclusions, and references. When the review process has been completed, authors receive a notification of either acceptance or rejection of the submission. If the paper has been accepted, the authors can prepare a final paper that incorporates the reviewers' suggestions. The format for the final paper is identical to the format for the extended abstract except for the number of pages: the full paper has a required minimum length of five (5) pages and a maximum of six (6) pages.
