-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP: Elsevier/SIMPAT: Special Issue on Simulation-based Performance Evaluation of Infrastructures for the Internet of Things: Connectivity and resource considerations in the mobility Era Datum: Tue, 29 Nov 2011 23:15:15 +0200 Von: Constandinos X. Mavromoustakis <mavromoustakis.c(a)unic.ac.cy> Organisation: University of Nicosia An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu Our apology if you receive multiple copies of this message. Simulation Modelling Practice and Theory/Elsevier Special Issue on Simulation-based Performance Evaluation of Infrastructures for the Internet of Things: Connectivity and resource considerations in the mobility Era Call for Papers ---------------- Smart wireless devices that are configured to communicate in a Mobile Peer-to-Peer (MP2P) manner will be soon able to have integrated features hosting all kinds of daily needs’ applications, in a 3A (Anything, Anytime, Anywhere) reliable configuration, and interact with one another using multiplatform applications. These advancements create the need of the development of a supportive infrastructure and network architecture that will enable the realization of the Internet of Things (IoT) which will be able to host real-time applications in a resource and energy efficient reliable way. The IoT realizes its potential in the context of a global communications platform that can be used by millions of independent devices co-operating together in large or small combinations, and in shared or separated federations. It involves connected embedded-devices such as sensors, home appliances, weather stations and even movable objects (such as toys, wearable devices-objects etc) to Internet Protocol (IP)-based networks. This Special Issue addresses the trend in both science and industry for smart embedded devices (smart objects) to become IP-enabled, as well as the latest frontier of the Internet, consisting of wireless low-power embedded devices-called the Wireless Embedded Internet. It also targets the development and implementation of new fundamental architectures for the efficient support of IoT technologies, where many resource limitations can be faced and various network mechanisms will be optimized by providing new middleware architectures that will face application-specific issues. Additionally the Special Issue aims to present novel middleware architectures and techniques for optimizing the power consumption, connectivity and reliability aspects, as well as aims to propose new models for capacity and data flow management for providing sufficient end-to-end resource management. Performance evaluation can be performed using simulation in order to evaluate the performance under different efficiency angles. With modeling and simulation the dynamically changing IoT environments, can be further analyzed and explored by utilizing computational and mathematical techniques, while creating a model construct of a conceptual framework that describes an IoT system. Topics ------- The list of topics for this special issue includes: -Network and system architectures of IoT -IoT infrastructures -Reflective and flexible application specific middleware for the IoT -Short-range Communications for IoT -Sensor networking technologies for IoT -Access network technologies for IoT -Cross-layer optimization for supportive IoT efficient resource sharing -Energy efficiency issues and schemes -Resource Management for the IoT support systems -Middleware supportive architectures -Design and evaluation of new IoT processes and/or Algorithms. -Performance improvement of existing IoT algorithms and/or reliability techniques and configurations -Semantic resource management Algorithms and techniques -Information processing, management, and distribution in IoT -IPv6 over low-power wireless area networks (6LoWPAN) support in the IoT domain -Embedded Architectures, Techniques and Algorithms that face the scarceness and availability of wireless resources -Data-synchronisation for offline support and resource availability -Application-specific resource management (RFID implementation, MP2P resource availability) -Smart Grid and the IoT infrastructures -Theoretical aspects of modelling and simulation the IoT including modelling new techniques for performance-oriented design methods -Novel techniques in computer system simulation for the IoT -Cloud Computing and IoT convergence -IoT and the Grid and any supportive concept for a future architecture of the Internet of Things Guest Editors ---------------- Prof. Helen Karatza Department of Informatics Aristotle University of Thessaloniki 54124 Thessaloniki Greece Tel. : +30 (2310) 997974 Fax : +30 (2310) 998419 Email: karatza(a)csd.auth.gr Dr. Constandinos X.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] SUBMISSION DEADLINE EXTENDED TO DECEMBER 15, 2011: CFP - Elsevier Computer Communications Journal - Special Issue on Reactive Sensor Networks Datum: Tue, 29 Nov 2011 21:11:39 +0200 Von: Charalampos Konstantopoulos <konstant(a)unipi.gr> An: <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> THE NEW SUBMISSION DEADLINE: DECEMBER 15, 2011. Call for Papers Elsevier Computer Communications Journal (http://www.elsevier.com/locate/comcom) Special Issue on Reactive Sensor Networks Scope A common assumption in Wireless Sensor Networks is that they comprise resource-constrained static nodes which sense their environment and then send their measurements to a central base station through mutihop routing. Soon, it was realized that this network organization leads to rapid energy exhaustion of sensors around the base station since these nodes should relay all the traffic destined for the base station. In addition, the passive nature of static sensors which can only sense and are unable to move is not always helpful in target-tracking scenarios or in cases where real-time action is necessary for handling emergency situations. Apparently, a reactive (dynamic) behavior from these networks would be effective for dealing with a number of changing operational conditions (e.g. node failures, energy exhaustion in some nodes) or with real-time events. This Special Issue will focus on all forms of reactive behavior that can be incorporated in the functionality of a Wireless Sensor Network and will also identify new possibilities, opportunities and challenges deriving from this new paradigm. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: -Sink mobility in Wireless Sensor Networks -Wireless Sensor Actuator Networks -Wireless Sensor Networks with mobile sensors -Re-tasking in Wireless Sensor Networks -Mobile agent based solutions in Wireless Sensor Networks -Node redeployment techniques in Wireless Sensor Networks for improved connectivity and/or coverage -Re-clustering techniques in Wireless Sensor Networks -Dynamic MAC and routing protocols in Wireless Sensor Networks for increased network lifetime -Reactive methods in Underwater Wireless Sensor Networks -Reactive methods for target tracking in Wireless Sensor Networks -Dynamic techniques for data aggregation/fusion in Wireless Sensor Networks - Security, trust and privacy in Reactive Sensor Networks Tentative Schedule Manuscript submission deadline: December 15, 2011 First Notification: March 10, 2012 Submission of revised paper: April 20, 2012 Notification of acceptance: May 31, 2012 Guest Editors Dr. Charalampos Konstantopoulos Department of Informatics University of Piraeus, Greece (konstant(a)unipi.gr) Prof. Paolo Bellavista Dipartimento di Informatica, Elettronica e Sistemistica Universita di Bologna, Italy (paolo.bellavista(a)unibo.it) Prof. Damla Turgut Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science University of Central Florida, USA (turgut(a)cs.ucf.edu) Prof. Chi-Fu Huang Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering National Chung Cheng University, Taiwan (cfhuang(a)cs.ccu.edu.tw) Instructions for submission: The submission website for this journal is located at http://ees.elsevier.com/comcom.To ensure that all manuscripts are correctly identified for inclusion into the Special Issue, the authors have to select "Special Issue: Reactive WSN" when they reach the "Article Type" step in the submission process. _______________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] Third Greenet Workshop Datum: Mon, 28 Nov 2011 12:55:47 +0000 Von: Friderikos, Vasilis <vasilis.friderikos(a)kcl.ac.uk> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> ------------------------------------------------------------------- Third Green Wireless Communications and Networks Workshop (GreeNet) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Co-located with IEEE VTC Spring 2012, Yokohama, Japan 6th-9th May 2012 Important Dates: ---------------- Paper Deadline: 16 Dec 2011 Notification: 13 Jan 2012 Camera Ready Deadline: 6 Feb 2012 Website: -------- http://vtc2012workshops.trackchair.com/track/983 Overview -------- Broadband wireless mobile communications data traffic is rapidly growing to provide data services for devices such as tablets, smartphones and laptops. However, for many operators, growth in traffic is not match by the same growth in revenue. There is an increasing awareness of the environmental impact of both wireless networks and the Internet in general. Many operators have thus made commitments to reduce the Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions associated with their networks. The objective of this workshop is to build on the success of the first two Greenet workshops to discuss these issues in detail. One major area where advances may be made is in moving towards more energy efficient network deployments which employ a mix of network components, such as macro-cell base stations, relays, picocells and femtocells to provide coverage and support high traffic demands. A second important avenue of research relates to new technologies and algorithms that can be deployed within the radio of each device to reduce energy consumption. This workshop particularly encourages contributions with blue sky thinking on how future technologies can be substantially more energy efficient than current systems. We invite five page paper submissions not previously published and are not currently under review for publication from researchers and practitioners active in the field of Green Wireless Communications and Networks covering (but not limited to) the following topics: 1. Energy Efficient Network design - Efficient network architectures - Heterogeneous networks - Network traffic engineering and QoS support - Network operation and management 2. Enabling technologies - Physical layer techniques - MAC protocols - Cross-layer optimization - Cognitive networks 3. Network components and devices - Low power devices - User terminal designs - Base station hardware architectures - Power management for user terminals and network devices 4. Applications and services of wireless technologies - Wireless smart grid and energy management concepts - Wireless networking for home working/smart office - Machine-to-machine communications - Regulatory issues - New topics for standardisation Workshop Organisers ------------------- John Thompson, University of Edinburgh Timothy O'Farrell, University of Sheffield Vasilis Friderikos, Kings College London _______________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

The first e-Energy conference was held in April 2010, in Passau (Germany), and the second took place in May/June 2011 at Columbia University, in New York City (USA). e-Energy 2012 invites submission of two categories of paper: full papers and discussion papers. Full papers should be no longer than 10 pages and discussion papers should be no longer than 4 pages. All papers must present original theoretical and/or experimental research that has not been previously published, accepted for publication, or is not currently under review by another conference or journal. Submissions must be in PDF-format using the double-column ACM format given at http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates Further submission information can be accessed via http://events.networks.imdea.org/content/e-energy-2012/paper-submission Proceedings will be published by ACM and appear in the ACM Digital Library. Full papers should include a detailed description of research either in progress or completed. A discussion paper describes innovative and novel ideas that have not yet been fully explored, but have the potential to influence the research community. A discussion paper could, for example, expose a new problem, advocate a new approach, re-frame or debunk existing work, report unexpected results from a deployment, or propose new evaluation methodologies.
