-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] PriMo Workshop 2nd Call for Papers Datum: Tue, 12 Apr 2011 11:28:34 +0100 Von: Wishart, Ryan <r.wishart(a)imperial.ac.uk> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> 2nd Call for Papers PriMo 2011<http://www.open.ac.uk/blogs/PriMo2011/>: First International Workshop on Privacy Management in Mobile Application (27th of June 2011, Copenhagen - in conjunction with IFIPTM 2011<http://www.ifiptm.org/IFIPTM11/IFIPTM.html>) Providing appropriate solutions to the privacy issues raised by mobile and ubiquitous technology is increasingly important, but mobile privacy remains difficult to study and address, partly because privacy is a socially sensitive and context-dependent problem, partly because mobility introduces continuous contextual shifts, interactional constraints and monitoring obstacles. Different research methods may yield contradictory findings, design solutions may not account for critical socio-cultural factors or afford adequate usability, and management policies may not have the flexibility that mobile users require. This workshop is organised with the support of the PRiMMA<http://primma.open.ac.uk/> Project and aims to promote an open exchange between researchers investigating privacy management issues in mobile applications. It will provide an exciting opportunity for researchers to discuss and evaluate research approaches and achievements within the field. In particular, we invite authors to submit extended abstracts addressing one or more of the following key areas: · Privacy research methods for mobile systems · Design solutions to address user privacy in mobile systems · Policy-based privacy management Topics may include but are not restricted to: o Empirical studies of mobile privacy users and systems o Methods and techniques for eliciting and analysing mobile privacy requirements o User evaluation of privacy-enabled mobile interactive technologies o Machine learning approaches to mobile privacy management o Usability issues in the design of privacy-enabled mobile systems o Privacy policies for mobile applications o Online presence and privacy management o Privacy aware adaptive systems o Mobile privacy and social relations Abstracts will be peer-reviewed by the workshop Programme Committee. Accepted abstracts will be presented at the workshop and then published both on the PRiMMA<http://primma.open.ac.uk/> website and conference’s workshop proceedings. Additionally, a full version of selected abstracts will be invited for inclusion in an edited book. Submission Information Submissions to the workshop must be in LNCS format and must not exceed 4 pages.

Fwd: [Tccc] CFP: ExtremeCom 2011; The 3rd Extreme Conference on Communication - The Amazon Expedition

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP: ExtremeCom 2011; The 3rd Extreme Conference on Communication - The Amazon Expedition Datum: Fri, 8 Apr 2011 10:53:23 +0200 Von: Anders Lindgren <dugdale(a)gmail.com> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu * Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP * ***************************************************************************** Call for Papers and Demos for The 3rd Extreme Conference on Communication - The Amazon Expedition (ExtremeCom 2011) http://extremecom.org/ The Extreme Conference on Communication (ExtremeCom) intends to bring together researchers and practitioners in areas related to delay tolerant networks and other networking paradigms for rural and remote areas, in order to gain experience and insight into the challenges that such environments pose for the network and the users. Following on from the success of ExtremeCom 2009 - The Midnight Sun Expedition in Laponia, Sweden, and ExtremeCom 2010 - The Himalayan Expedition in Dharamsala, India, we now offer ExtremeCom 2011 - The Amazon Expedition. In this edition, we aim to explore the challenges of the deep Amazon Rainforest in Brazil. Located 21 miles (34 km) from Manaus. The chosen spot is known as Praia do Tupé (Tupé beach), a beautiful and remote beach accessed only by boat through the waters of the Black River. The population is composed by natives living in little communities spread around the jungle and also on the river shore. These people experience constant communication interruptions and most of them do not have any access to the Internet, which makes this area a great field of experiments to DTN systems. Hosted by Federal University Of Amazonas (UFAM) the conference will start with 3 days of immersion into the jungle where the conference participants will aid in setting up and deploying an extension of a DTN system in this area in order to provide connectivity to a new community. During this time the participants will have the chance to hike around the trails, interact with the locals and also know some natural phenomenons like the “meeting of the waters”, where the black waters of the Negro River meet the brown waters of the Solimões River, flowing side by side without mixing for about 9 km. The immersion will not only give a better idea of both the technical and user requirements of such a system, but it will also give many opportunities for informal research discussions between the participants. Participants that have their own software for scenarios like this will also, to as great an extent as possible, be encouraged to test and demonstrate it within this environment. Upon reaching the end of the “field experience”, there will be two days of paper presentations and demos in a more traditional conference venue at UFAM's facilities in Manaus. Focus will still be on informal research discussions, with the hope that the field experience will give participants the ability to discuss the topics in a new light. Participants should submit 6 page papers about ideas and visions about the topics of the conference or demo proposals to be shown during the conference. Visionary and thought-provoking papers that are likely to generate much discussion during the conference are especially solicited. The aim of the conference is to maintain an informal environment, where new research ideas can be discussed and developed. We also hope to have a demo session where participants can show their implementations and systems. If you want to show a demo, please submit a 2 page demo proposal using the same submission system as for conference papers. Topics for the conference include, but are not limited to: * Testbeds for large-scale sustainable testing of DTN systems * Real deployments of networks in extreme environments * Business and service models for networks in rural, remote, and other challenging environments * User experience research * Delay tolerant networking * Low-power and intermittent-power protocols * Mechanisms for emergency and urgent communications * Networked applications and services Due to logistics and the need to conduct the conference in harmony with the local population and the environment, the number of participants may be limited. Priority will be given to authors of papers. ***************************************************************************** Important dates --------------- Conference dates: September 26-30, 2011 Field experience and network deployment: September 26-28 Technical sessions: September 29-30 Submission deadline: June 6, 2011 Notification of acceptance: July 1, 2011 ***************************************************************************** Organizers ---------- General co-chairs: Anders Lindgren, Swedish Institute of Computer Science, Sweden Pan Hui, Deutsche Telekom Laboratories and TU Berlin, Germany Local arrangement committee: Edjair Mota, UFAM, Brazil JB Pinto Neto, UFAM, Brazil Alfredo Gold, University of Sao Paolo, Brazil Aline Carneiro Viara Iannonne, TU Berlin, Germany / INRIA, France Publicity chair: TBC Sponsorship chair: TBC Publication chair: TBC Web chair: Fehmi Ben Abdesslem, University of St. Andrews, UK Technical Program Committee: Yahel Ben-David, University of California - Berkeley, USA Elwyn Davies, Folly Consulting, UK Avri Doria, US Stephen Farrell, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland Tristan Henderson, University of St. Andrews, UK Jörg Ott, TKK, Helsinki, Finland Aaditeshwar Seth, IIT Delhi, India more to be confirmed Steering Committee: Jon Crowcroft, University of Cambridge, UK Avri Doria, Luleå University of Technology, Sweden Tristan Henderson, University of St. Andrews, UK Pan Hui, Deutsche Telekom Laboratories and TU Berlin, Germany Anders Lindgren, Swedish Institute of Computer Science, Sweden ***************************************************************************** _______________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.
