-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Mattia Campana <mattia.campana(a)IIT.CNR.IT> Gesendet: 14. November 2023 17:59:41 MEZ An: KUVS-L(a)LISTSERV.UNI-HEIDELBERG.DE Betreff: [CFP] 4th workshop on Human-Centered Computational Sensing (HCCS’24) - EXTENDED DEADLINE Dec. 1st 2023 * Call for Papers * Fourth Workshop on Human-Centered Computational Sensing (HCCS’24) co-located with the 22nd IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing and Communications (PerCom 2024), March 11-15, 2022 - Biarritz, France. https://sites.google.com/view/hccs24/home The fourth edition of the Human-Centered Computational Sensing (HCCS’24) Workshop at PerCom 2024 aims to advance and promote research about how unobtrusive observations of human beings’ cognitive, behavioral, physiological, and contextual data is increasingly enabling new computing experiences. The workshop will additionally stimulate dialog about the implications of computational sensing for society. Traditionally, sensors have been understood narrowly as physiological measurements often captured with wearable devices. This workshop adopts a broader, human-focused view, envisioning sensing as time-evolving measurable data directly linked to individuals and, by extension, to their communities. With this understanding, sensing involves human reactions and interactions observed in spoken, written, or signed language, eye gaze, facial and bodily expressions, social networks, geospatial patterns, and other such human-generated data. Advances in multimodal human data acquisition and fusion have the potential to significantly impact all areas of human life - productivity, health and well-being, training and education, human-computer interaction, accessibility, safety and security, as well as gaming, sports, and entertainment. * Relevant topics include but are not limited to: - Novel methodologies for collecting and processing multimodal human sensing data, including remote/online data collection - Co-sensing of multiple individuals, groups, or communities - Detection and analysis of human social interactions, behaviour and habits - Localization and proximity-detection systems - User acceptance, quality of experience, and social impact studies - Accessibility of human sensing technologies - New interventions acting on human-centered computational sensing - Fusion of multifaceted, heterogeneous, and/or incommensurable human sensing data - Artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms for responsible behavioral analysis with human sensing data - Interactive machine learning guided by humans, with sensing technologies - Edge and fog computing architectures for human sensing - Applications of human-centered computational sensing - Innovative Human-Computer Interactions based on sensing - Innovative visualizations and representations of human sensing data - Evaluation metrics and methodologies - Experimental analysis with human sensing data from real-world applications - Human-centered sensing for healthcare, industry, and social good - Educational insights from teaching human sensing technologies - Experiences and lessons learned from research projects focused on human-centered computational sensing - Privacy and ethical considerations for human-centered computational sensing - Design of human computation sensing promoting diversity. Organizers will consider the possibility of inviting authors of selected papers accepted to HCCS’24 to submit an extended work to a Special Issue of an international journal. * Submission and Registration: Authors are invited to submit technical or theoretical papers for presentation at the workshop, describing original, previously unpublished work, which is not currently under review by another workshop, conference, or journal. Papers should present novel perspectives within the general scope of the workshop. Accepted workshop papers will be included and indexed in the IEEE digital libraries (Xplore). Papers may be no more than 6 pages in length. Authors can purchase one additional page for the camera-ready version. Papers in excess of the page limits will not be considered for review or publication. All papers must be typeset in double-column IEEE format using 10pt fonts on US letter paper, with all fonts embedded. The IEEE LaTeX and Microsoft Word templates, as well as related information, can be found at the IEEE website. Submission must be made via EDAS using https://edas.info/N31320. It is a requirement that all the authors listed in the submitted paper are also listed in EDAS. The author section of EDAS will be locked after the workshop submission deadline to ensure that conflict-of-interest can be properly enforced during the review process.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [InternetTC] CALL FOR PAPERS: IEEE WoWMoM 2024 Datum: Thu, 9 Nov 2023 16:28:07 +0000 Von: Bo Wei <weibo053(a)GMAIL.COM> An: itc(a)COMSOC.ORG # CALL FOR PAPERS: IEEE WoWMoM 2024 Perth, Australia 4-7 June 2024 Web: https://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~wowmom/2024/index.html <https://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~wowmom/2024/index.html> ===== We apologize if you receive multiple copies of this CFPs. ===== ## IMPORTANT NOTE WoWMoM 2024 will adopt a double-blind review process. Refer to the details under Paper Submission for the requirements to double-blind submissions. ## SCOPE AND OVERVIEW IEEE WoWMoM 2024 is soliciting original and previously unpublished papers addressing research challenges and advances in the areas of wireless, mobile, and multimedia networking as well as ubiquitous and pervasive systems and applications. Wireless networking technologies are continuously evolving and have become a critical part of modern life, be it for communication services, media distribution, or sensing and actuation services within the Internet of Things (IoT). Appropriate resource management, application design, and architectural networking paradigms are necessary to provide users with high quality experience in multimedia communication and services. Edge computing, machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) techniques are becoming essential tools to cope with the increasing diversity of connected devices and the plethora of new data-intensive and latency-sensitive applications. At the same time, the interoperability among IoT environments (including wearable computing and sensors), the network edge, and the cloud are evolving towards an IoT-edge-cloud continuum that is expected to support a wide range of application domains and services in a seamless and efficient manner. In this context, providing rich sets of measurements for characterizing and understanding the behavior of such complex systems is of paramount importance. IEEE WoWMoM 2024 takes a broad view and seeks papers describing innovative research contributions to the field of mobile and wireless networking and applications. We solicit papers that present original work, validated by experimentation, simulation, or analysis. We also welcome practical experiences and experimental efforts from both industry and academia, duly documenting the lessons learned from testbeds, field trials, or real deployments. ## SPECIFIC AREAS OF INTEREST * 5G/6G networks for mobile and multimedia services * AI-assisted and data-driven networking in wireless, mobile, and multimedia networks * Authentication, authorization, accounting for wireless, mobile, and multimedia networks * Behavior-aware human-centric multimedia networks * Content-centric architectures for wireless, mobile, and multimedia networks * Context-awareness in wireless, mobile, and multimedia networks * Resource management and QoS/QoE provisioning * Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) enabled multimedia networks * Seamless inter-networking and self-organization * Software-Defined Networking, Network Function Virtualization, and slicing for wireless and mobile networks * IoT-edge-cloud continuum for wireless, mobile, and multimedia networking and services * Communication technologies and services for M2M communications * Dependability and survivability issues for wireless, mobile, and multimedia networks * Energy characterization, modeling, and efficiency for wireless, mobile, and multimedia networks * Localization, tracking, and mobility management and services * Trust and privacy issues for wireless, mobile, and multimedia networks * Modeling, analysis, and performance evaluation of wireless, mobile, and multimedia networks * Network traffic characterization and measurements * System prototypes, measurements, real-world deployment, and experiences * Mobile social networks * Connected mobility, including vehicles, vulnerable road users, etc: networking issues and services * Participatory, opportunistic, mobile, and urban sensing * Wearable Computing ## PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION Authors are invited to submit papers describing original, previously unpublished work not currently under review by another conference, workshop, or journal. Authors must make a good faith effort to anonymize their submissions. Specifically, the authors should not identify themselves in any content within the paper either directly or indirectly (e.g., through references). Where relevant, authors must refer to their previous work in the third person write as if it was written by a third party. However, authors should ensure that any anonymization of their work is not destructive. For instance, omission of references to papers just because they are the authors’ previous work should be avoided, as this could prevent reviewers from finding that related paper for the purpose of the review. Submissions violating anonymization rules will not be considered for review. Although submission is double-blind, non-anonymous preprints (on arXiv or other preprint servers) will not lead to the rejection of your paper. Reviewers will be instructed not to actively look for such preprints before completing a first read of your paper, but encountering them will not constitute a conflict of interest. Only PDF files will be accepted for the review process, and all submissions must be made electronically through EDAS. Visit <https://edas.info/N30195 <https://edas.info/N30195>> to register your paper now! Authors can submit regular or work-in-progress papers (appropriate category to be selected upon submission). ## REGULAR PAPERS Regular papers submissions may be up to 10 pages in length (including figures and references), formatted in two-column IEEE conference style with font size 10 points or greater. See <https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html <https://www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html>> for IEEE Manuscript Templates for Conference Proceedings. ## WORK IN PROGRESS PAPERS WIP (Work-in-progress) papers provide a peer-reviewed forum for late-breaking or preliminary research results, giving an opportunity for researchers and practitioners to present and demonstrate their recent research and obtain feedback from their peers in a poster session. Work-in-progress papers submissions may be up to 4 pages in length (including figures and references) and must have the prefix "WIP:" in the paper's title. ## IMPORTANT DATES: * Papers due: December 1, 2023 * Acceptance notification: February 19, 2024 * Camera-ready version due: April 14, 2024 ## ACCEPTED PAPERS An author of an accepted paper is required to register for the conference at the full (member or non-member) rate. The paper must be presented by an author of that paper at the conference. Exceptions can be granted if compelling reasons are sent to the TPC Co-Chairs with a written request indicating an adequate substitute presenter before the conference. Accepted papers (both regular and WIP) will be included in the proceedings of IEEE WoWMoM 2024 which will be published through the IEEE Xplore digital library. All conference proceedings must meet IEEE's quality standards, and IEEE reserves the right not to publish any proceedings that do not meet these standards. Furthermore, IEEE reserves the right to remove papers from IEEE Xplore that are not presented at the conference, for unjustified reasons. ## BEST PAPER AWARD All accepted regular papers will be considered for the Best Paper Award. A committee will select three best paper candidates based on the reviews received and also the quality of presentation. The winner will be announced during the conference. For any additional information, please contact the PC Co-chairs. ## PC CO-CHAIRS * Andreas Reinhardt (TU Clausthal, Germany) * Raja Jurdak (Queensland University of Technology, Australia) ====== Thanks and Best regards, Dr Bo Wei Senior Lecturer (Associate Professor) School of Computing Newcastle University, UK Email: bo.wei(a)newcastle.ac.uk <mailto:bo.wei@newcastle.ac.uk> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the itc list, click the following link: https://comsoc-listserv.ieee.org/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=itc&A=1

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [InternetTC] IEEE TNSM - Deadline Extension to Nov 20th 2023 (firm) - Special Issue on "Robust and Resilient Future Communication Networks" Datum: Tue, 31 Oct 2023 16:44:32 +0000 Von: Massimo Tornatore <000000158533b4e2-dmarc-request(a)COMSOC-LISTSERV.IEEE.ORG> An: itc(a)COMSOC.ORG *IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management* *Special Issue on * *Robust and Resilient Future Communication Networks* Robustness and resilience of communication infrastructures is a top priority for network operators. To ensure reliable network operation, new design and management techniques must be constantly devised to respond to the rapid network and service evolution. As a recent and relevant example, deployments of 5G communication networks will soon enter the next phases, during which the network infrastructure will require upgrades to support new ultra-reliable services with availability of up to 9 nines. Similarly, disaster resiliency in communication networks is now attracting the attention of media, governments, and industry as never before (consider, e.g., the worldwide network traffic deluge to support remote working during the recent COVID19-pandemic!). Fortunately, several new technical directions can be leveraged to provide new solutions for network reliability that includes increased network reconfigurability enabled by softwarized networks (e.g., Software Defined Networking (SDN)); integration/convergence of multiple technologies (optical, wireless, satellite, datacenter networks); enhanced forms of data/service replication that is supported by edge computing; network slicing used to carve highly-reliable logical partitions of network, computing and storage resources. These, and many other technological transformations can enable next-generation high-reliability networks. Given the strong interest in both industry and academia towards reliability of telecom networks and cloud-computing infrastructures, we organize this fourth IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management (TNSM) Special Issue on Robust and Resilient Future Communication Networks (the first issue published in September 2021). This Special Issue aims at the timely publication of recent and innovative research results on this important topic. This Special Issue is organized in collaboration with the International Conference on the Design of Reliable Communication Networks (DRCN), a well-established forum for scientists from both industry and academy who have interest in reliability and availability of communication networks. We welcome submissions addressing important challenges (see the list of topics below) and presenting novel research or experimentation results. Survey papers that offer a perspective on related work and identify key challenges for future research will be considered as well. /We look forward to your submissions!/ ** *About the special issue * Topics of interest for this special issue, include, but are not limited to the following: * Resilience in 5G-advanced and 6G networks and services * Survivable network of networks * Ultra-Reliable Low Latency Communications (URLLC) * Design of resilient and reliable IoT systems * Resilience in Software-Defined Networking (SDN) * Secure and reliable quantum communication * Resilient communication networks for the smart grid * Reliable Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) architectures * Resilience in satellite communication networks * Reliable Airspace and Non-Terrestrial Networks * High-availability for Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) infrastructures * Reliability issues in softwarized networks * Dependability and reliability of cloud/wireless/cellular/mobile/datacenter networks * Resilience in Free-Space Optics/Visible Light Communications (FSO/VLC) communications * Survivability and traffic engineering for optical, IP and multi-layer/multi-domain networks * Recovery of overlay and peer-to-peer networks * Risk and reliability in the Internet and enterprise networks * Communication reliability for smart city applications and intelligent transport systems * Methods for survivable network and systems design, analysis and operation * Planning and optimization of reliable networks, systems, and services * Machine learning for reliable design of communication networks * Reliable Federated Learning * Trust and explainability of Machine Learning solutions for reliable networking * Reliable autonomous driving and intelligent transportation * Security of cyber physical and networked control systems * Reliable design of networked control systems * Data analytics and Machine Learning for fault diagnosis * Network coding techniques to improve resilience * Quality of Experience (QoE) and network service availability assessments * Resilience of networked critical infrastructures * Network robustness to natural disasters * Robust network design for hostile environments * Integration of satellite services for critical situations * Network dependability and energy consumption trade-offs * Network resilience combined with economics and commercial issues * Public policy issues for survivability and resilience * Supply chain reliability * Reliability aspects in blockchains and distributed ledgers * Technological sovereignty * Deterministic and time sensitive networking * Resilience towards business continuity * Reliability requirements and metrics for users, businesses, and the society * Robust network design for hostile and/or pandemic environments * Security and safety issues in networks and their relation to survivability * Standardization of network resilience and reliability * Design and test of reliable operational technology (OT) networks * Network reconfiguration and reinforcement *Submission format * Papers will be evaluated based on their originality, presentation, relevance and contribution to the field of design and management of reliable communication networks, as well as their overall quality and suitability for the special issue.
