Special Issue on Mobile Crowd Sensing (MCS)
http://www.comsoc.org/files/Publications/Magazines/ci/cfp/cfpcommag0814.html
/Introduction/
Successful city management relies on urban dynamics and social event
monitoring to provide essential information for decision making. In
traditional sensing techniques such as wireless sensor networks (WSNs),
distributed sensors are leveraged to acquire real world conditions.
However, static sensing is affected by several conditions, such as
insufficient node coverage, high installation/maintenance cost, and lack
of scalability. Mobile Crowd Sensing (MCS) presents a new sensing
paradigm based on the power of various mobile devices/objects (e.g.,
smartphones, wearable devices, sensor-equipped vehicles, etc.). The
sheer number of mobile device users and their inherent mobility enables
a new and fast-growing sensing paradigm: the ability to acquire local
knowledge through sensor-enhanced mobile devices ®C e.g., location,
personal and surrounding context, noise level, traffic conditions, and
in the future more specialized information such as pollution ®C and the
possibility to share this knowledge within the social sphere,
practitioners, health care providers, and utility providers such as
municipalities for example. The information collected by the mobile
devices on the ground combined with the support of the cloud where data
fusion takes place, make mobile sensing a versatile platform that can
often replace static sensing infrastructures, and enabling a broad range
of applications from urban dynamic mining, public safety, environment
monitoring, just to name a few. Numerous and unique research challenges
arise from the mobile crowd sensing paradigm ranging from participatory
and opportunistic data collection, proper incentive mechanisms,
transient network communication, and big data processing. By having
human participation in the loop, several other issues regarding to the
privacy and security of data (e.g., sensitive information such as human
voice, location may be revealed), quality/trust of the data contributed
(e.g., there might be fake or malicious nodes involved) should also be
addressed.
This feature topic issue provides the opportunity for researchers,
practitioners, and application developers to review and discuss the
state-of-the-art and trends of MCS techniques and applications or
propose new solutions.
In the light of the above, the main purpose of this feature topic on
Mobile Crowd Sensing is threefold:
-to promote unprecedented approaches and techniques in participatory and
opportunistic data collection, communication, analysis, and visualization;
-to identify open issues which remain a challenge towards the
convergence of information and communication technologies, privacy
protection methods, social and psychological theories in MCS;
-to exploit novel application areas and demonstrate the benefits of MCS
in contrast with more traditional static sensing approaches.
Topics may include (but are not limited to):
- Architecture/Framework Design
- Participatory Data Collection (node selection, data sampling,

SCOPE
-----
In recent years, Internet has become increasingly ubiquitous. Besides
allowing people to connect anytime and everywhere, the Internet is evolving
into the communication medium for objects that are embedded in the physical
world. The coupling between such objects and a worldwide standard-based
communication infrastructure constitutes the Internet of Things (IoT) and is
characterized by machine-to-machine (M2M) communications. The IoT enables a
detailed characterization of the physical environment, as well as a rich set
of interactions with the physical world. As such, the IoT has the potential
to revolutionize pervasive computing and its applications. Indeed, the
realization of a ubiquitous IoT poses several challenges about seamless
integration, heterogeneity, scalability, mobility, and many others.
This special issue solicits high-quality papers presenting original research
results on the IoT that are tightly related to pervasive and ubiquitous
scenarios. Submissions could consist of theoretical and applied research in
topics including, but not limited to:
* System architectures for the IoT targeted to pervasive scenarios
* Adaptive and autonomic computing in the IoT
* Middleware and service platforms for ubiquitous IoT applications
* Security and privacy in pervasive IoT scenarios
* Ubiquitous computing solutions exploiting the M2M paradigm
* Context awareness in the IoT
* Mobility management in the IoT and in M2M communications
* Experiences in building ubiquitous IoT platforms
* Pervasive applications built on top of the IoT
* Enabling technologies and standards for the IoT and M2M communications
* Sustainable design and solutions for the IoT
All submissions must be prepared according to the Guide for Authors as
published by the Pervasive and Mobile Computing journal
(http://www.elsevier.com/locate/pmc). Authors should select the SI: Internet
of Things, from the pull-down menu during the submission process. All
contributions must not have been previously published or be under
consideration for publication elsewhere. A submission based on one or more
conference papers that appeared elsewhere must have major value-added
extensions over what appeared previously (at least 30% new material). In
this case, authors are requested to submit their relevant previously
published articles and a summary document explaining the enhancements made
in the journal version.

# Scope of Special Issue #
The Internet is becoming more and more ubiquitous. One central element
of this trend is the existence of a massive network of interconnected
wired/wireless physical objects/things/sensors/devices, which can
interact in a rich set of manners through a worldwide communication and
information infrastructure and provide value added services. The vision
of such an Internet of Things (IoT) system, supported by industrial
companies and governments globally, has the potential to mark an
evolution that will surely have a great impact on our environments and
our lives. Yet, the realization of a ubiquitous IoT also poses a number
of challenges where security is among the top concerns. The globally
interconnected physical objects inevitably result in a potentially
enormous attack surface that can be easily exploited if without adequate
protection. To enable strong security foundations for the ubiquitous
IoT, plenty of factors need to be taken into account. Examples are data
security, privacy, access control, information assurance, trust
management, secure services interoperability, seamless integration,
system heterogeneity, scalability, and mobility. This special issue
solicits high-quality original research results about IoT that pertain
to state-of-the-art security and privacy issues in various pervasive and
ubiquitous scenarios. We encourage submissions on theoretical,
practical, as well as experimental studies, from both academia and
industry, related to all aspects of security for IoT. Topics of
interests include (but are not limited to) the following categories:
- Secure IoT architecture
- IoT access control and key management
- Identification and privacy for IoT
- Smart phone enabled secure smart systems
- New cryptographic primitives for IoT
- Manage trust for IoT service interoperability
- Security on heterogeneous ecosystems
- Context-aware security design
- Data security and privacy in the IoT
- Intrusion detection and defense for IoT
- Joint security&privacy aware protocol design
- Failure detection, prediction, and recovery
- Secure data management within IoT

*PERVASIVE AIMS:*
PervasiveHealth is a premier international forum with specific focus on
technologies and human factors related to the use of ubiquitous
computing in healthcare and wellbeing. The overall goal of the Pervasive
Health Conference is to take a multidisciplinary approach to Pervasive
Healthcare Technology research and development.
The Pervasive Healthcare Community is addressing a broad scope of
research topics and concerns:
* identify and understand problems from a technological, social, and
medical perspective (with a particular emphasis on understanding and
supporting patient needs);
* design, implementation, and evaluation of supporting hardware and
software infrastructures, algorithms, and applications; and
* organisational strategies that facilitate integration of Pervasive
Healthcare Technology into the healthcare enterprise.
Traditional healthcare environments are extremely complex and
challenging to manage, as they are required to cope with an assortment
of patient conditions under various circumstances with a number of
resource constraints. Pervasive healthcare technologies seek to respond
to a variety of these pressures by successfully integrating them within
existing health care environments. Technologies, standards and
procedures on their own provide little and or no meaningful service. It
is essential that pervasive healthcare environments, through a combined
approach of data collection, data correlation and data presentation,
assist health care professionals in delivering high levels of patient
care, and empower individuals and their families for self-care and
health management.
The Pervasive Healthcare conference in Oldenburg aims to gather
technology experts, practitioners, industry and international
authorities contributing towards the assessment, development and
deployment of pervasive medical based technologies, standards and
procedures.
We welcome contributions from the following fields:Sensing Technologies
and Pervasive Computing
* Medicine, Nursing, and Allied Health Professions
* Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Computer Supported Cooperative
Work (CSCW)

Venue
PervasiveHealth 2014 will be conducted in Oldenburg, a medium-sized city
in northwestern Germany, in the middle between Hamburg (D) and Amsterdam
(NL). Embedded in a beautiful, unspoiled natural landscape the former
residence of counts, dukes and grand dukes is now home to 160,000 people
and a vibrant, modern city - a university city with 4 universities and
more than 20,000 students. Going to Oldenburg is easy: Bremen airport is
only 45 minutes away and is just one hop from the major international
airport hubs Frankfurt, Amsterdam and Paris. Other major airports in
easy reach are in Hamburg, Hanover and Münster/Osnabrück.
Submissions
The conference invites the submission of original work through the Confy
paper submission system (http://confy.eai.eu
<http://eai.mailmta.com/nl/l.jsp?uH.6X.XyF.Ho.B-.ejM1>) in one or more
of the following formats: full and short papers, workshops,
posters, interactive demonstrations. Pervasive Health 2014 will accept
submissions in the following categories:
*Full papers* (up to 8 pages submissions) - Full papers are submissions
describing results and original research work not submitted or published
elsewhere in one of the four main categories listed below. Full papers
should properly place the work within the field, cite related work, and
clearly indicate the innovative aspects of the work and its contribution
to the field.
*Short Papers and Posters* (up to 4 pages submissions): short papers are
envisioned as submissions describing original research that is much more
focused and smaller in scope than full research papers. Short papers are
not expected to provide all the details on the research, but rather
focus on the most innovative and salient aspects. In addition, short
papers are not expected to include a comprehensive review of related
work. Short papers will be presented during the main track of the
conference. Poster category combines submissions reporting on the
progress of ongoing research and insights into the lessons learned from
current (industrial, practitioners, government, etc.) pervasive
healthcare practice.
*Medical Perspective Abstracts* (1-2 pages submissions) - Authors are
invited to submit work in traditional medicine whose results are
interesting to Pervasive Health audience. This track will give Pervasive
Health attendees a way to learn about ongoing research initiatives, both
in medicine and technology, and will provide presenters with an
excellent opportunity to receive invaluable direct feedback from experts.
*Demos* (2 pages submissions) - The demos track will showcase the latest
developments and prototypes related to the topics of interest of the
conference. The expected demo submissions should describe the technical
details of the demo alongside its contribution to the healthcare domain.
*Workshop proposals* (2 pages submissions) - Several workshops will be
run in conjunction with the conference. The purpose of these workshops
is to discuss work in progress and explore opportunities for new
research related to pervasive healthcare.
*Doctoral Colloquium* (4 pages) – This event will enable doctoral
students to present and reflect on their work alongside other doctoral
students and a panel of experts. Submissions should include a
description of work done, intended future work, alongside a specific
research question or challenge that you would like to be discussed at
the colloquium.
*Publication:*
Each paper will be blind, peer-reviewed by members of the Pervasive
Health 2014 program committee with additional expert reviewers drawn
from relevant research domains. Submissions will be evaluated based on
their originality, significance of the contribution to the field,
technical correctness and presentation. The paper should make explicit
how the work offers unique and substantial contribution beyond what has
already been published or submitted. All accepted submissions will be
published in IEEE Xplore Digital Library
<http://eai.mailmta.com/nl/l.jsp?uH.6Y.XyF.Ho.B-.ejM1> . Authors will
also be invited to submit their camera-ready papers in ACM format, to be

over the last five to ten years and have become in many cases the lion's
share of wireless businesses. Such networks are now well known as the
primal channels for communication between people, means for increasing
marketing potentials, tools for enabling social research, and forums for
affecting political trends, all of which eventually indicate a more than
ever increasing penetration and exploitation of wireless and mobile
networks in human lives.
The proposed workshop (DySON) will mainly cover the technical aspects
of the interplay between social and wireless mobile networks, and more
specifically will focus on original contributions regarding topics, such
as structure, behavior, and optimization of social and mobile wireless
networks. DySON aspires to raise holistically the awareness of the
research and industrial communities in the area of social wireless
mobile networks from diverse and broad perspectives and provide a venue
for the presentation and dissemination of the latest novel advances in
the corresponding field of science. Emphasis will be placed on the
interplay between social and mobile wireless networks, aiming at
identifying commonalities and complementarities between them, with the
final objective of highlighting approaches, properties and features that
can be used in order to simultaneously improve their design and
operation. Such interplay between social and mobile wireless networks
has been lately addressed in the field of Complex Network Analysis
(CNA), and DySON, aspires to receive and present the highest quality
contributions regarding analysis, control and optimization from the
perspective of CNA, thus achieving diversity of application domains
(mobile/online social and wireless networks) and promoting the most
interesting interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary analytical
methodologies.
The workshop will be centered both on formal methods, as well as on
noteworthy technical contributions of more practical flavor. Concepts
and knowledge from several fields need to be jointly considered to
address the corresponding challenges, while opening new frontiers and
opportunities in relevant research. CNA and utility maximization already
applied in the field of complex networks and socio-aware information
networks exhibiting the tight interplay between wireless and social
networks, along with the design of communication protocols and
respective algorithms are just few indicative examples. DySON aims for
papers following the above approach and will be devoted to the
presentation of the highest quality ones, thus contributing to creating
critical mass in the corresponding literature and further steaming the
locomotive of control and optimization in social and mobile wireless
networks.
The DySON workshop welcomes contributions that will be mainly involved,
but not limited to the following list of topics:
* Interplay between online social networks and wireless communications
* Network Utility Maximization (NUM) for mobile social and wireless
networks
* Complex network structure analysis and optimization
* Graph theoretic analysis for mobile complex (social and wireless)
networks
* Game theoretic and economic analysis
* Structure of social networks and their influence to the design of
advanced wireless networks
* Primal-dual decomposition for complex network algorithms
* Stochastic network optimization
* Cross-layer network optimization
* Topology Control for complex networks
* Social relationship graphs of mobile devices
* Adaptive algorithms for evolving online social and wireless networks
* Resilience and fault-tolerant network optimization
* Social-aware network solutions in wireless communications
* Complexity and approximation of social/mobile network optimization
and control techniques
* Optimal content dissemination in complex networks
* Mobile cyber-physical systems
