As a result, there will be a strong demand for wireless communications and networking to provide information as well as onboard entertainment services to passengers and driver. Vehicular communication is expected to implement a variety of wired and wireless technologies for Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle-to-Roadside (V2R) communications. In Vehicular Ad-hoc Networks (VANETs) for V2V systems, communication may experience serious deterioration due to the lack of accurate channel state information and advanced radio-resource-allocation schemes to assign wireless resources to high-speed vehicles. Moreover, communication among high-speed vehicles through cellular communication networks causes frequent handovers and drop-offs resulting in degradation in overall system performance. This motivates researchers to design innovative resource allocation techniques and robust, as well as, fast handover schemes for dynamically changing topologies of VANETs. In VANETs for V2V communications, trust, security, privacy, and reliable routing are major concerns since the network topology changes constantly. Furthermore, physical layer design issues for wireless communications in high-speed mobile environments are also of vital importance to realize its full potential for ITS. All in all, vehicular communications with dynamically changing topologies is a demanding research topic. The goal of this issue is to bring together the state of the art research contributions that focus on vehicular communications and networking. In particular, the topics of interest include but are not limited to · Physical Layer and Propagation Models. · Radio Resource and Interference Management. · Medium Access Control and Routing Protocols. · Information Aggregation and Dissemination. · Positioning and Location Technologies. · Sensor Technologies for VANETs. · Drive-Through Internet and Roadside Infrastructures. · Incident Detection for VANETs. · Trust, Security, and Privacy Issues. · Fast and Reliable Handover and Mobility Management · Vehicle Traffic Models. · Heterogeneous Networking. · Cellular and Satellite Communications for Vehicular Networking. · Cross-Layer Designs and Architectures. · Game Theory Based Protocols and Algorithms. · Green Vehicular Communications and Networking. · Cloud-Based Vehicular Communications and Networking. · Standardization and Development, such as WAVE/DSRC/802.11p · Applications, Case Studies, and Real-World Test Beds. · Business Models and Policies. -------------------------------------------- Submission Format and Guideline: ----------------------------------------------- All submitted papers must be written in English and contain only original work, which has not been published by or is not currently under review for any other journal or conference.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP: The Third IEEE International Workshop on Vehicular Networking (VON-12) Datum: Sat, 22 Oct 2011 01:05:58 +0800 Von: C.-M. Chou (Jensen) <jensen0915(a)gmail.com> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu ================================================================== Call for Papers The Third IEEE International Workshop on Vehicular Networking (VON-12) http://lens.csie.ncku.edu.tw/VON12/index.html to be held in conjunction with the AINA 2012 Conference that will be held in Fukuoka, Japan, March 26-29, 2012. ================================================================== Aims and Scope --------------- The goal of this workshop is to present and discuss recent advances in the development of wireless vehicular networking technologies. Based on short- to medium-range communication systems (vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-roadside), vehicular networks will enable vehicular safety applications including collision and other safety warnings as well as non-safety applications like real-time traffic congestion and routing information, high-speed tolling, mobile infotainment, and many others. The creation of high-performance, highly reliable, highly scalable, and secure vehicular networks technologies, though, presents an extraordinary challenge to the wireless research community: a high degree of communication reliability is needed under unfavorable channel conditions. Clearly, the specificity of vehicular networks in terms of mobility behavior and applications scenarios and requirements makes vehicular networks research an exciting and demanding application- and purpose-driven sub-discipline of wireless networking. Topics of Interest ----------------- Original papers addressing applications and architecture, systems and protocols design, development and analysis, in all areas related to Vehicular Networking are solicited. Papers that bring out interesting and novel ideas at an early stage are favored over highly-polish journal-style results.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] Computer Communications Journal, Special Issue on Reliable Network-based Services Datum: Mon, 17 Oct 2011 16:25:25 +0200 Von: Piotr Cholda <cholda(a)agh.edu.pl> Antwort an: piotr.cholda(a)agh.edu.pl Organisation: AGH University of Science and Technology An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu [Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message] ************************************************************************* * * * Call for Papers * * * * COMPUTER COMMUNICATIONS [Elsevier] * * * * Special Issue on Reliable Network-based Services * * * ************************************************************************* SCOPE In the today's provision of network services, a rapid development of many new technologies (like virtualization or cloud computing) and applications (e.g., social networking) can be seen. They have a considerable engineering, commercial and societal impact and pose numerous challenges to designers. One class of issues is the continuous offering of services in spite of various types of failures that are everyday events in networks. The increasing complexity, the participation of many different autonomous entities in the service provision, the lack of information, coordinated actions as well as governance makes this challenge increasingly difficult. In addition to a design of reliable network segments, server clusters etc., new technological issues like stability and failure management across heterogeneous autonomous systems arise. They also involve novel fields at the border of technology, business and society, like risk-awareness or influence of public policy. The goal of this issue is to present state of the art research contributions that focus on the reliable network-based services (RNS) provisioning. Contributions are invited from prospective authors with interests in the indicated special issue topics and related areas of application. All contributions should be of high quality, original, unpublished, and not submitted for publication elsewhere. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Network and service resilience: + reliability requirements and metrics for individual users, business, and the society + service differentiation based on recovery methods + dependability of networked applications and network-based services + application and service-specific survivability techniques - Commercial and societal context: + telecommunication networks as an element of critical national infrastructures + network resilience combined with economics and business issues + risk and reliability in the Internet and enterprise networks - Operational aspects: + resilience of multi-domain connections in the Internet + reliability of emerging technologies (e.g., network virtualization, thin client architectures) + network dependability in cloud computing + interaction between fault management and traffic handling - Theory and modeling + reliability analysis + methods and theory for survivable networks and systems + simulation techniques for network and service resilience SCHEDULE Manuscript submission deadline: December 1, 2011 First notification: March 1, 2012 Submission of revised paper: May 1, 2012 Notification of acceptance: July 1, 2012 GUEST EDITORS Piotr Cholda, AGH University of Science and Technology, Poland, piotr.cholda(a)agh.edu.pl Bjarne E.
