-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Mitglieder-info] Call for Contributions: Capacity Sharing Workshop 2011 Datum: Tue, 05 Jul 2011 09:11:57 +0000 Von: Dirk Kutscher <Dirk.Kutscher(a)neclab.eu> An: mitglieder-info(a)kuvs.de <mitglieder-info(a)kuvs.de> Liebe KuVS-Mitglieder, anbei noch einmal der Call for Contributions fuer unseren Capacity-Sharing-Workshop im Oktober zur Erinnerung. Viele Gruesse, Dirk Kutscher -- Dr. Dirk Kutscher NEC Laboratories Europe Kurfuerstenanlage 36 69115 Heidelberg, Germany email: dirk.kutscher(a)neclab.eu Tel. +49 6221 4342 203 Fax. +49 6221 4342 155 NEC Europe Limited | Registered Office: NEC House, 1 Victoria Road, London W3 6BL | Registered in England 2832014 [Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this.] Call for Contributions ---------------------- NEC Laboratories Europe and the Institute of Communication Networks and Computer Engineering (IKR) of the University of Stuttgart invite you to a one-day workshop on the topic Capacity Sharing ---------------- With the increasing amount of IP traffic in fixed and mobile access networks, the question how to share the available resources in a fair, efficient and demand-oriented way becomes more and more prevalent. With the variety of services one can find in today's Internet, the requirements in rate, data volume and latency differ strongly. To maximize resource utilization and, at the same time, provide satisfying performance to all users, application layer knowledge is needed. As different resource allocation and adaptation mechanisms already exist in MAC, transport and application layer, an integral consideration of the problem space is required. In wireless networks, the problem is particularly relevant due to the inherently limited resources, which render a simple "throwing bandwidth at the problem" solution impossible. Because large over-provisioning factors are economically unfeasibly, similar questions on capacity sharing also arise in fixed access networks, such as high bandwidth passive optical networks or cable networks. The objective of this workshop is to bring together stakeholders of mobile and fixed access networks, the classic Internet world and of the application and transport community. We solicit presentations on the state-of-the-art, results of ongoing research, open issues, trends and new ideas. We are especially looking forward to (possibly provocative) visionary presentations to foster a lively discussion about how to face the upcoming challenges in the future mobile Internet. Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to * Application-layer adaption for mobile services * Transport layer solutions and possible interactions with cellular/fixed access networks * Context-aware resource allocation & cross-layer adaptation * QoE and fairness definitions, metrics and evaluation * Data traffic characteristics in fixed and mobile Internet * Economic aspects on capacity sharing and business models * Similarities and differences of capacity sharing in mobile and fixed access networks * Related standardization activities and projects Submission Information ---------------------- Please inform the workshop organizers by email to CapacitySharingWS(a)ikr.uni-stuttgart.de about title and abstract (max. 1 page) of your planned presentation. The number of slots is limited. Important Dates --------------- Deadline for contributions is July 15, 2011. Registration to the workshop is open until September 15, 2011. The workshop takes place in Stuttgart on Thursday, October 13, 2011.

Without the introduction of alternative solutions to reduce the cost of conventional systems such as hospitalization and specialized institutions, the system will most likely collapse. For a long time, information and communications technologies (ICT) have been recognized as part of the solution to create new cost-effective solutions to reduce the cost of healthcare. For example, the Ubiquitous (U) Health Smart Home, a home equipped with ICT to support people directly in their home, has been identified by governments and medical institutions, as an important step towards financial savings, as well as a technologically and socially acceptable solution to maintain the current health welfare system. ____ The aim of the Ubiquitous Health smart home is to allow elderly and disabled persons to continue to live a more independent life as long as possible in their own home while receiving the required medical and safety assistance. Doctors and other Healthcare providers can continuously access their health status or situation to detect as early as possible through a flexible remote access any anomaly so they can immediately intervene. With the help of the U-Health smart home, doctors, nurses and other health-related personnel do not need being physically close to the patients and reversely reducing therefore the load on hospitals and specialized institutions while ensuring the safety of the patients.____ While this concept had some difficulties to be fully realized, in recent years, tremendous advances in low-power electronics, nano/bio sensor technologies along with development of wired and wireless network technologies are facilitating the development of such solutions which are more and more requested by our societies. These advances have led to the development of small-sized wireless medical and environmental sensors that are capable of very efficiently monitoring physiological parameters of humans as well at the living environment. Further, advances in sensing and communication technologies, along with advances software engineering, make it possible today to build homes where healthcare providers could deploy novel health and safety applications. These solutions not only will improve the well-being and quality of health of people in their own home but could also benefit other places where the same technologies can be deployed such as smart spaces and smart hospitals.____ This special issue aims to gather the latest results in this area of Ubiquitous Healthcare Smarthome, by providing a fresh snapshot of the current state-of-the-art in the design, implementation and evaluation of supporting design, hardware, software, algorithms, protocols and applications. Practical experiences, extensive experimentation, and lessons learned from deployment of real prototype systems, along with field trials, are welcome.

There is growing interest in using V2V or V2I communications to enable ITS (Intelligent Transport System) services which can range from time-critical safety services, traffic management, to infotainment and local advertising services. How to effectively and efficiently disseminate information in a timely and reliable manner is critical to ITS services. However, the unique characteristics of vehicle networks present challenges in achieving service performance. Applicable information dissemination technologies may include delay tolerant approaches, data aggregation methods and routing schemes to mitigate congestion on the wireless medium, maintain network connectivity and improve overall communication performance. The impact and significance of such technologies for varying degrees of V2V and V2I connectivity and for varying deployment scenarios are also critical. This session seeks to provide a forum to present and discuss original relevant research results. Authors are invited to submit regular technical papers or position papers. The position papers should present novel technologies at an early stage of development or share future vision. All the submissions should describe original, previously unpublished research, not currently under review by another conference or journal. Please submit the paper through EDAS. Submissions deadline: Aug 15, 2011 Submissions for the Special Sessions are subject to the same rules, guidelines and peer review as all other papers.

There are only 10 days until the submission deadline. Best regards matthias [Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CfP] CALL FOR PAPERS ** 2nd Workshop on Pervasive Group Communication (IEEE PerGroup) ** URL: http://pergroup.realmv6.org Houston, TX, USA, December, 2011, held in conjunction with IEEE GLOBECOM 2011, and co-sponsored by the German Chapter of the IEEE CE Society, G-Lab, and The unbelievable Machine Company Group communications have passed from research to deployment and back to a research issue. Newly deployed services, in particular IPTV, P2P content distribution, and collaborative applications, are stimulating current research on multicast, broadcast, concast, and anycast. Emerging design issues for a future multi-service Internet combined with the dynamic development of wireless access techonologies challenge the community to rethink the position of group communications along the stack. The PerGroup workshop invites the community to share efforts in search of seamless, pervasive group services, and to discuss directions on a human-centric multi-service Inter-networking architecture. We welcome contributions that design new solutions or analyze existing deployments, but also those that present striking problem statements or early conceptual work. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: System Design & Methodology: - Architectures and protocols for fixed, wireless and ad hoc networks - Protocols and interfaces for intuitive group communications - Intra- and Inter-domain group communication - Native, overlay (including P2P) and hybrid multicast - Topology analysis & measuring, mining and modeling of - media-rich social networks - Measurement, simulation and analytical studies as well as deployment experiences Supporting Technologies: - Multipath routing / extension of emerging routing schemes - Cooperative relaying and network coding - Service placement and service location - Security and privacy issues for multicast, anycast, and broadcast - Real-time and QoS aspects Applications: - Adaptive content distribution, e.g., video broadcasting - Application-layer traffic optimization and provider interaction - Multicast & anycast in a future multi-service Internet - New data distribution models to facilitate group communication - Frameworks for human centric based group communications You will find detailed information about the very successful last year's PerGroup at http://pergroup.realmv6.org/2010/. --------------- IMPORTANT DATES --------------- Full paper: July 7, 2011 Notification: August 15, 2011 Final version: August 31, 2011 ---------------------- ORGANIZATION COMMITTEE ---------------------- Workshop Co-Chairs: - Thomas C.
