-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP: IEEE JSAC Special Issue on Broadband Wireless Communications for High Speed Vehicles Datum: Tue, 29 Mar 2011 11:40:55 +0800 Von: Zhou Yi Qing <yqzhou(a)eee.hku.hk> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu Apologies if you receive multiple copies. A submission system has been set up in EDAS. The acronym of this issue is BWCHST. ********************************************************************** CALL FOR PAPERS IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications Broadband Wireless Communications for High Speed Vehicles (BWCHST) With the development of mobile communication systems such as long term evolution (LTE), WiMax and International Mobile Telecommunications (IMT)-Advanced, broadband wireless multimedia services will be prevalent in the near future. Meanwhile, high speed vehicles such as airplanes and high speed trains play an increasingly important role in people’s lives, since they provide a relatively stable and spacious environment for long distance travel. As a result, there will be a strong demand for broadband wireless communications (BWC) for high speed vehicles to provide information and onboard entertainment services to passengers. BWC is also needed in vehicle control systems for operational information such as fault sensor measurements and diagnostics, video surveillance, and so on. Interesting research areas and various challenges arise when designing BWC systems for high speed vehicles. For example, a new network structure is needed since a direct transmission signal between the passenger and infrastructure-base-station experiences serious deterioration when traveling through the speeding vehicle. Distributed antenna and radio over fiber can be employed for vehicle-to-infrastructure communication. Moreover, due to the lack of accurate channel information, innovative radio resource allocation schemes are also needed at the infrastructure-base-station to assign resources to high speed vehicles. The fast movement of high speed vehicles through cellular networks causes frequent handovers and drop-offs, degrading the user experience. This prompts the need for designing fast and reliable handover and random access schemes. In addition, novel physical layer techniques of BWC in high speed mobile environments need to be considered. In particular, there is a strong need to evaluate the effect of Doppler spread and revisit the noncoherent coding, modulation and MIMO schemes. Therefore, BWC for high speed vehicles is a pressing research topic that has huge applications. It is imperative to develop the key techniques enabling BWC for high speed vehicles. The goal of this issue is to bring together the most updated research contributions in this area. We are soliciting high quality, original and unpublished work in BWC for high speed vehicles, especially those pushing the envelope in terms of vehicle speed and communication bandwidth. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Novel network architecture * Satellite communications * Drive-through Internet * Distributed antenna systems and radio over fiber for vehicle-to-infrastructure communications * High speed vehicle-to-vehicle communication * BWC for high speed vehicle control systems * Radio resource allocation to high speed vehicles * Fast and reliable handover and random access schemes * Wireless channel modeling and estimation * Effects of Doppler spread * Modulation schemes for high speed vehicles * Antenna array and MIMO * Prototype and field tests Prospective authors should prepare their manuscripts following the IEEE J-SAC format described at http://www.jsac.ucsd.edu/Guidelines/info.html. Authors should submit a PDF version of their complete manuscript to http://www.edas.info. The submission system is avaialbe now and the acronym of this issue is BWCHST. The timetable is as follows: Manuscript Submission Due: May 1, 2011 First Reviews Due: August 1, 2011 Second Reviews Due and Acceptance Notification: November 1, 2011 Final Manuscript Due: January 1, 2012 Publication: 2nd quarter 2012 Guest Editors: Prof. Yiqing Zhou, Advanced Wireless Center, ICT/CAS, China (zhouyiqing(a)ict.ac.cn) Prof. Fumiyuki Adachi, Tohoku University, Japan (adachi(a)ecei.tohoku.ac.jp) Prof. Xiaodong Wang, Columbia University, USA (wangx(a)ee.columbia.edu ) Prof. Athanassios Manikas, Imperial College, United Kingdom, (a.manikas(a)imperial.ac.uk) Prof. Xi Zhang, Texas A&M University, USA (xizhang(a)ece.tamu.edu) Prof. Wei-Ping Zhu, Concordia University, Canada (weiping(a)ece.concordia.ca) _______________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

Special Issue on "Security in Cooperative Vehicular Networks", Security and Communication Networks (Wiley Online Library, ISSN: 1939-0114, SCIE indexed journal): http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/sec.292/pdf Recent technologies of wireless cooperative vehicular networks supporting Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communications have become a cornerstone of Intelligent Transport Systems that will bring the promise of improved road safety and comfortable/infotainment driving environments with IEEE 802.11p.Wireless cooperative vehicular networking is one of the most interesting and active research topics, which is requiring vital efforts from both the industry and the academia. In particular, studies on secure broadcasting and routing for V2V and V2I communications, authenticating messages and vehicles, authorizing users to services, and location privacy of users have posed various challenges. These challenges require to develop applicable authentication approaches for messages and vehicles and authorization approaches for users as well as improved anonymous mechanisms for preventing the exposure of identity and location. Especially, IPv6 enabled V2V and V2I communications are requiring network level security mechanisms including secure binding between the permanent and temporary addresses of vehicles key distribution and location privacy with regard to IPv6 tunnel management, securing end-to-end communication, authentication in the IPv6 access network, etc. This special issue is intended to disseminate the latest research results in emergent security issues, by providing a fresh snapshot of the current state-of-the-art in wireless cooperative vehicular networking. Especially, this special issue will not only focus on security mechanisms for IEEE 802.11p based V2V and V2I communications, but also address security mechanisms for IPv6 enabled V2V and V2I communications. Accordingly, this special issue will bring together the industry and academia working on security issues related to wireless cooperative vehicular networking and highlight future directions. Main Topics of this Special Issue *Secure Broadcasting for V2V and V2I Communications *Secure Multi-hop Routing for V2V and V2I Communications *Secure Geographic Addressing and Routing (GeoNetworking) *Secure Service Discovery Mechanisms in Cooperative Vehicular Networks *Trustable Broadcasting and Multi-hop Routing for V2V and V2I Communications *Authentication and Authorization for Messages, Vehicles, and Users *Access Control for Vehicles and Users *Location Privacy Approach to Cooperative Vehicular Networks *Identity Management Approach to Cooperative Vehicular Networks *Incentive Management Approach to Cooperative Vehicular Networks *Formal Security Validation Model for Cooperative Vehicular Networks *Performance Analysis Model for Security Mechanisms for Cooperative Vehicular Networks.

Due to many requests we are extending the submission deadline for HotPlanet'11 workshop until the 7th of April 2011. Please note that the paper registration deadline is extended until the 31st of March 2011. ========================================================================= CALL FOR PAPERS The 3rd ACM Workshop on Hot Topics in Planet-scale Measurement HOT PLANET 2011 Co-located with ACM MobiSys 2011, 28 June 2011, Washington DC USA http://www.hotplanetconf.net/ ========================================================================= It is well-known that successfully researching, designing and building new mobile, ad-hoc, mesh and opportunistic networking systems and algorithms requires access to large-scale data on human mobility, encounter, and social network patterns. Unfortunately, the wireless and mobile research communities lack such data, with typical human contact traces consisting of less than 100 nodes. We believe that large-scale datasets are important, not only in communication network design, but also for fundamental study in other academic disciplines, e.g., epidemiology, urban planning, and social science. Complex networks research has flourished since 1989 when the first large Internet (and later WWW) datasets became available. To achieve similar improvements in mobile networking and related fields, large-scale, and ideally planet-scale, datasets must be collected and made available. Following two successful editions of the workshop at ACM MobiSys 2009 and 2010, the third HotPlanet workshop will not only challenge the community to collect large-scale human mobility traces but also to propose novel mobility data processing and knowledge discovery techniques. Mobility Data Contest sponsored by Google ----------------------------------------- To make the whole event even more interesting, we will hold a competition for all the participants of the MobiSys conference and the associated workshops. The contest is sponsored by Google and you can find more details about it on the workshop website (http://www.hotplanetconf.net) under the 'Contest' section. The ceremony for the winners will take place during the last day of the ACM MobiSys conference.

These evolutions have come about as a result of relentless research and development efforts across all layers of the network hierarchy. Continuing this trend, many new challenges and opportunities are emerging in the broader area of next-generation networking. In particular, some of the key focus areas include network heterogeneity, scalability, virtualization, services and applications, security, manageability, dependability, and performance predictability. Moreover, the next-generation wireless networks are introducing even more niche problems in mobility management, content distribution, and self-organization. Along these lines, the planned Next-Generation Networking (NGN) Symposium at IEEE GLOBECOM 2011 will hope to provide a forum for many of these exciting new focus areas. This symposium will solicit participation from both academic and industry researchers working in the area of next-generation networking technologies, services, architectures, and protocols. The overall goal is to present a latest snapshot of the ongoing work as well as to shed further light on future directions in this space. The symposium will encourage the submission of novel technical studies as well as broader position and vision papers comprising hypothetical/speculative scenarios. Main Topics of Interest The planned symposium topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: Future Internet and next-generation networking architectures Heterogeneous multi-layer and multi-domain networks, wireless-wireline internetworking Overlay networks and peer-to-peer networking Network virtualization, virtual private networks (VPN), and services Provisioning, monitoring, and management of IP services: traffic engineering, mobility support,etc. Flow management: resource sharing, congestion control, etc. Routing: unicast, multicast, anycast, etc (wireless, wireline) Multihoming, network planning and optimization Addressing and naming, especially in the presence of mobility and portability Operational and research issues with IPv6 VoIP protocols and services Self-protecting networking Switch and router architectures, performance, control, buffer management, packet scheduling Network management methodologies and control plane design Internet survivability and network resilience strategies Mechanisms for self-organisation and autonomous networking Traffic measurement, analysis, modelling, visualization, and engineering Anomaly, intrusion, and attack detection/prevention Policy based mechanisms and high-speed firewall technology Packet classification and forwarding mechanisms at ultra-high link rates (terabits) High speed and parallel processing architectures for next generation routers Connecting mobile/wireless devices to the Internet Converged networks and applications, including NGN telecom networks Content-based networking: caching, distribution, load balancing, resiliency Mobile/wireless content distribution Internet applications including interactive media, voice and video, games, immersive applications Internet signalling and service enabling protocols, including SIP, NSIS, HTTP, RTSP/RTP, etc Privacy and/or security issues and intrusion detection/prevention in the Internet Design methodologies for Internet services Internet economics, pricing models, accounting, Internet growth modelling IP multimedia subsystem: architecture and design Next-Generation access networking Symposium Co-Chairs Yuanyuan Yang, SUNY at Stony Brook, USA Anwar Walid, Bell Laboratories, USA Zhenghao Zhang, Florida State University, USA Qun Li, College of William and Mary, USA _______________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.
