FEATURE TOPIC: ENABLING MOBILE AND WIRELESS TECHNOLOGIES FOR SMART CITIES URL: http://www.comsoc.org/commag/cfp/enabling-mobile-and-wireless-technologies-… CALL FOR PAPERS Due to advancements in communication and computing technologies, smart cities have become main innovation agenda of research organizations, technology vendors, and governments. To make a city smart, a strong communication infrastructure is required for connecting smart objects, people, and sensors together. Smart city communication involves multiple aggregation and access networks that can be either public or private. The rapid progress in smart cities research is posing enormous challenges in terms of significance, scope, and problem domain. Smart cities rely on wireless and mobile technologies for providing services such as healthcare assistance, security and safety, real-time traffic monitoring, and managing the environment, to name a few. Such applications have been a main driving force in development of smart cities. These mobile and wireless technologies enable several new services that result into better decision making and actions made by enterprises and governments.! Without the appropriate communication networks, it is really difficult for a city to facilitate its citizens in sustainable, efficient, and safer manner/environment. Considering the significance of mobile and wireless technologies for realizing the vision of smart cities, there is a need for conducting research to further investigate the standardization efforts and explore different issues/challenges in the wireless technologies, mobile computing and smart environments. This FT focuses on the crossroads between scientists, industry practitioners, and researchers from different domains in the wireless technologies, mobile computing and smart environments.

It is in fact a common opinion that, in the near future, our cities will be populated by a potentially higher number of devices that actively participate to the execution of pervasive and advanced services. Being massively distributed into the environment, such devices may generate, collect, exchange and process big data, provide distributed services, offer computational resources, and cooperate to perform some tasks locally, as well as to delegate the their execution to more powerful nodes in the infrastructure or at the network edge. At the same time, end-user mobile devices are becoming more and more pervasive. In many countries, the number of mobile cellular subscriptions greatly overcomes the current population (even more than +150%). Furthermore today’s smartphones/devices are provided with increasing sensing/communication/computation capabilities and they are capable to produce fine-grained context-information by properly analysing/mining the data produced by embedded sensors, such as accelerometer, gyroscope, microphone, etc. In this futuristic scenario the citizens with their smartphones, tablets and portable devices, will assume the very special role of information prosumers (PROducers and conSUMERS). In fact, they will be constantly connected with whatever surroundings them and they will be formidable information consumers. At the same time, citizens roaming around the city may be considered as mobile probes that, by making uses of cyber and physical data accessible by smartphones, will analyze the situation and will produce reports to the community. Furthermore the citizen’s smartphones will actively contribute in creating the communication infrastructure by forwarding data coming from surrounding devices thus partially relieving the communication infrastructure from the heavy burden of the huge amount of data produced in the envisioned scenario. All in all, cities are going to become a new complex ecosystem which has the potentiality to offer many amazing features and support innovative application. Unfortunately, fully exploiting, managing and accessing that ecosystem are still far to be fully viable and their fulfillment surely poses a formidable challenge. The CoWPER workshop aims to solicit contributions on novel algorithms, methodological studies and experimentations on how to enable the formerly described ecosystem. Specifically, on how devise a city-wide networking infrastructure capable to efficiently guarantee communication in the new envisaged ecosystem, to manage the complexity of heterogeneous devices and access technologies, and to guarantee robust, ubiquitous, and secure connectivity over the urban environments. In line with such objectives, original contributions are solicited in topics of interest including, but not limited to, the following: • Models of network components’ interactions on a smart-city • Self-organizing wireless networks for pervasive urban access; • Distributed Sensing and Control in Smart Cities; • Mobile-aware cloud computing models, infrastructures, and approaches for smart cities • Smartphone-based sensing systems, tools, applications in Smart City environments; • Smartphone and mobile systems and applications; • Cyber-physical interactions with smartphones; • Crowd sourcing in smart cities; • IoT architectures and middleware for smart cities; • Novel communication protocols for M2M Communications; • Device-2-Device Communications (D2D); • Dynamic trust management models for Smartphone based networks and applications; • Cooperation incentive models for Smartphone based networks and applications; • Reliability, Security, Privacy and Trust in smart cities ecosystems; • Business model to promote users collaboration and resources sharing in smart cities ecosystems; • Testbed demonstrating the feasibility of Smartphone based networks and interaction with Cyber physical Systems; • Applications, Business, Standards, and Social Issue; • Cooperative Smart Objects supporting Wireless Networks Interoperability and Management *All accepted papers will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Conference Publishing Services and IEEE Xplore Digital Library*. *Submission Instructions*: Prospective authors are invited to submit original technical paper by the deadline of *27th March 2016*.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CfP ACM MobiCom 2016 Datum: Tue, 9 Feb 2016 09:02:43 +0100 Von: Falko Dressler <dressler(a)CCS-LABS.ORG> Antwort an: Falko Dressler <dressler(a)CCS-LABS.ORG> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG ACM MobiCom 2016 Call for Papers http://www.sigmobile.org/mobicom/2016/ As the premier conference on mobile computing and wireless networking, MobiCom 2016 solicits full papers (limited to 12 pages excluding references) that focus on the theory, system, practice, and challenge of providing users with an enriched and ubiquitous mobile or wireless experience. At its core, we solicit papers that address important challenges in access/communication, energy, computing, security and user experience as it applies to wireless networking and mobile computing. We strongly encourage papers on emerging mobile/wireless topics including but not limited to next generation (5G) mobile networks, Internet of things, machine-to-machine communications, visible light communication, novel access paradigms/modalities, smart devices, wearable computing, and mobile data science/analysis. We also invite papers that integrate mobile/wireless research with innovations in cloud computing and software defined networking. Successful papers will address real research challenges through theoretical analysis, novel system design, and/or real-world measurement and deployment of mobile networks, systems and applications. The program committee will evaluate each paper using metrics that are appropriate for the topic area. The accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings. All submissions must describe original research, not published or currently under review for another conference or journal. In addition to regular, full research papers, the conference also invites submission in the following categories: Experience Papers The conference invites submission of short papers (limited to 8 pages excluding references) that present extensive experiences with implementation, deployment, and operations of mobile systems and wireless networks. Desirable papers are expected to contain real data as well as description of the practical lessons learned. The experiences papers will be evaluated by the MobiCom technical program committee, primarily for (i) the richness of their data or experiences, (ii) inferences drawn or lessons learned, (iii) discovery of new problems, and (iv) their impact on current and future mobile systems and wireless networks as well as on the society. Note that a paper that builds a system and presents a limited experimental evaluation is not suitable as an experience paper. The selected experience papers will be a part of the MobiCom technical program and will be published in the conference proceedings. They should be submitted using the same submission procedure adopted for the f! ull papers. The title of these papers must have the prefix "Experience:". Challenge Papers The conference also invites submission of short papers (limited to 8 pages excluding references) that present revolutionary new ideas or that challenge existing assumptions prevalent among the wireless research community. These "challenges papers" should provide stimulating ideas or visions that may open up exciting avenues and/or influence the direction of future research. Descriptions of new products or evolution of existing work are not appropriate topics for papers in this category. While an exhaustive evaluation of the proposed ideas is not necessary, insight and in-depth understanding of the issues is expected. Challenges papers will be reviewed by the MobiCom technical program committee and will be part of the technical program and published in the MobiCom proceedings. They should be submitted using the same submission procedure adopted for the full papers. The title of these papers must have the prefix "Challenge:". Paper Submission Instructions All paper submissions will be handled electronically. Authors should prepare a PDF version of their full paper. Any papers that do not adhere to the following guidelines will be immediately rejected: • Full papers - Maximum of 12 pages excluding references (i.e. submissions may include as many additional pages as needed for references) • Experience/Challenge Papers - Maximum of 8 pages excluding references • Font size no smaller than 10 points • Double column format with each column having dimensions 9.25 inches x 3.33 inches, a space of 0.33 inches between the two columns, and with no more than 55 lines of text per column • Fit properly on US letter-sized paper (8.5 inches x 11 inches) • Authors' names must not appear anywhere in the paper or in the PDF file. The PDF file must also not contain any hyper-links. All submitted papers would be evaluated through a double-blind reviewing process, with the identities of the authors withheld from the reviewers. Please direct any questions about the paper submission process to the Program Co-Chairs (at mobicom2016 "dot" tpcchairs "at" gmail "dot" com). Awards All accepted regular papers will be considered for the Best Paper Award. The program committee will select a number of candidates for the award among accepted regular papers. The winner will be selected at the conference, taking into consideration both the paper and the presentation. We will also have an award called the Best Community Paper Award. Among all accepted regular papers, the program committee will select one that contributes the most to the broader research community in terms of real data or new software/hardware or artifacts. Video Presentation The authors of each accepted paper will be asked to submit a short 1-minute video to introduce the research presented in their paper to the general public. These videos will be placed on the conference website up to two weeks before the conference, and will be played during the conference. A selected set will be featured by the social media channels related to the conference. A Best Video Award will be given at the conference.
