Based on short- and medium-range communication like DSRC or WiFi as well as long-range cellular systems, vehicular networking will enable vehicular safety applications (including collision avoidance and safety warnings), efficiency applications (e.g., real-time traffic congestion and routing information), and other commercial or public authority applications (high-speed tolling, mobile infotainment, and many others). The ACM VANET 2011 workshop intends to cover a widening range of research topics, which are related to vehicular networking applications, services, and systems. Beyond systems that are integrated into vehicles, the workshop scope includes, e.g., vehicle- or traffic-related smartphone applications. The great potential of this technology has been acknowledged with the establishment of ambitious research programs on vehicular communication systems worldwide, such as the current InteractIVe and eCoMOVE projects within the European eSafety framework, various US programs derived from USDOT projects, and the Japanese Smartway and Advanced Safety Vehicle programs. Furthermore, vehicular communication and networking also present a very active field of standardization activities worldwide, like ISO TC204, IEEE (802.11p and 1609.x), and SAE J2735 in the US, ETSI TC ITS and CEN WG278 in Europe and ARIB T-75 in Japan, as well as field trials like the large-scale Safety Pilot in the US, simTD in Germany and SCORE-F in France. The Eighth ACM International Workshop on VehiculAr Inter-NETworking (ACM VANET 2011) will cover all vehicular wireless networking aspects using a variety of wireless communication techniques (from short-range DSRC/WiFi to long-range cellular communication). The topics not only cover the design and implementation of vehicular communication systems and applications but also include the potential implications on transport efficiency and safety, liability issues, standardizations efforts, and spectrum assignment. - Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: - Channel modeling, modulation and coding - Congestion control and scalability issues - Medium access control protocols - Multi-channel organization and operation - Communication protocol design and network management - Safety and non-safety applications - Vehicle-to-vehicle/roadside/Internet communication - Simulation frameworks - Field operational testing - Security issues and countermeasures, and privacy issues - Telematics applications - Electric vehicle applications - Networking to reduce energy consumption - Wireless in-car networks - Systems that reduce driver distraction - "Reduced functionalities" DSRC systems for pedestrians, road workers, etc. - Vehicle or traffic-related smartphone apps Organizing Committee -------------------------------- General Co-Chairs: John Kenney, Toyota InfoTechnology Center, USA Marco Gruteser, Rutgers University, USA Technical Program Co-Chairs: Marc Torrent-Moreno, Barcelona Digital Centre Tecnològic, Spain Fan Bai, General Motors Research, USA Publicity/Website Chair: Jason Haas, Sandia National Laboratories, USA Please contact the General Chair or Technical Program Co-Chairs for more information. _______________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.

Ammari <Habib.M.Ammari(a)hofstra.edu> An: itc(a)comsoc.org <itc(a)COMSOC.ORG> [Apologies if you receive multiple copies.] Call for Papers for MobiCom2011 The Seventeenth Annual International Conference on Mobile Computing and Networking September 19-23, 2011, Las Vegas, NV, USA http://www.sigmobile.org/mobicom/2011/ Sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILE ACM MobiCom2011, the Annual International Conference on Mobile Computing and Networking, is the seventeenth in a series of annual conferences sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILEdedicated to addressing the challenges in the areas of mobile computing and wireless and mobile networking. The conference will be held at the Cosmopolitan Resort in Las Vegas, NV, USA, during September 19 -23, 2011. The MobiComconference series serves as a highly selective, premier international forum addressing networks, systems, algorithms, and applications that support mobile computers and wireless networks. Besides the regular conference program, MobiCom2011 will also include a set of workshops, panels, research demonstrations, and a poster session that includes the ACM Student Research Competition. More information on these activities, including submission deadlines, can be found at /http://www.sigmobile.org/mobicom/2011/. ** * * *PAPERS: *Authors are invited to submit full papers presenting new research related to the theory and practice of mobile computing and wireless networking that pertain to the layer two or above of the OSIprotocol stack. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to the following. * Architectures, protocols, and algorithms for various wireless and mobile networks, such as wireless LANs, wireless mesh networks, cellular data networks, delay-tolerant networks, mobile ad hoc networks, sensor networks, personal area networks, and vehicular networks * System design, implementation, and evaluation of wireless systems and mobile applications * Real-world measurements and characterization * Performance-oriented design and evaluation focused on networks and mobile applications * Foundational underpinnings of wireless networks * Testbeddesign and implementation * Cross-layer design for mobile and wireless networks ranging from the PHY layer to applications * Networks involving novel technologies such as UWB, MIMO, directional antennas, software radios, visible light communications and underwater networking * Architectures, algorithms and protocols for dynamic spectrum usage, white spaces, and cognitive networks * Techniques that deal with low power and energy limitations * Operating system and middleware support for mobile computing and networking * Security, privacy, and trustworthiness of mobile and wireless systems * Emerging topics, e.g., robotic swarms, 60 GHz networking, social networking and novel applications enabled by mobile and wireless networking systems MobiCom’11 will be a diverse conference and we strongly encourage the submission of mobile systems, experimental and theoretical papers. The program committee will evaluate each paper using metrics that are appropriate for the topic area. For example, a systems or experimental paper in the protocol area will be evaluated based on the innovations in the protocol design, practical implementation, and realistic evaluation, whereas a more theoretical paper may be evaluated mostly based on innovation within the design of the algorithm and its provable properties. At the same time, the evaluation of wireless and mobile networking technologies is challenging because of the significant impact that the physical environment has on performance. For this reason, all papers must carefully describe and justify the evaluation methodology that is used and identify its strengths and weaknesses. The program committee will referee all papers, and accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings. Selected outstanding papers will be fast-tracked for publication in a special section of the IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing. ** *CHALLENGES PAPERS: *The conference strongly encourages the submission of short papers in the field of mobile computing and wireless networking that present revolutionary new ideas or that challenge existing assumptions prevalent among the research community. These challenges papers should provide stimulating ideas or visions that may open up exciting avenues and influence the direction of future research. Descriptions of new products or evolution of existing work are not appropriate topics for papers in this category. While an exhaustive evaluation of the proposed ideas is not necessary, insight and in-depth understanding of the issues is expected. Challenges papers will be reviewed by the MobiComprogram committee and will be part of the technical program and published in ACM MobiComproceedings. They should be submitted using the same submission procedure adopted for the full papers. The title of these papers must start with the word "Challenge:" i.e., "Challenge: Rest of the Title." ** * * *SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS: *All paper submissions will be handled electronically. Authors should prepare a PDF version of their full paper. Papers must /(i) /be no longer than 12 pages (8 pages for "Challenges" papers), /(ii) /be in font size no smaller than 10 points, /(iii) /have pages in double column format with each column having dimensions 9.25” X 3.33”, a space of 0.33” between the two columns, and with no more than 55 lines of text per column, and /(iv) /fit properly on US letter-sized paper (8.5” X 11”). More detailed instructions will be available in the conference web pages.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CfP: 4th IEEE WiVEC 2011 || San Francisco - Sept. 5-6,2011 Datum: Tue, 22 Feb 2011 07:16:00 -0800 Von: Yaser P. Fallah <yaserpf(a)berkeley.edu> An: <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> [Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP.] ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4th IEEE International Symposium on Wireless Vehicular Communications IEEE WiVEC’2011 Sep. 5-6 2011, Hilton Hotel, San Francisco, USA http://www.ieeevtc.org/wivec2011/ Sponsored by the IEEE Vehicular Technology Society (VTS) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wireless vehicular communications has been identified as a key technology for increasing road safety and transport efficiency, and providing Internet access on the move to ensure wireless ubiquitous connectivity. The potential of this technology has been acknowledged with the establishment of ambitious research programs worldwide in Europe, US and Asia. The IEEE Vehicular Technology Society (VTS) currently covers through its areas of interest (Mobile Radio, Transportation Systems and Automotive Electronics) all technical aspects needed to make wireless vehicular communications a reality. As a result, the IEEE VTS society decided to establish a technical symposium on wireless vehicular communications co-located with the reputed IEEE VTC conferences. The IEEE International Symposium on Wireless Vehicular Communications (WiVEC) will cover all vehicular wireless communications aspects of Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V), Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) and Vehicle-to-Person (V2P) communications, including implications on transport efficiency and safety, implications on automotive electronics, liability issues, standardizations efforts and spectrum assignment. After the past successful WiVEC editions in 2007, 2008, and 2010, the fourth IEEE WiVEC symposium will be co-located with the 74th IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference 2011 Fall, and will take place at the Hilton Hotel in San Francisco on the 5th and 6th of September 2011. Combined registrations packages will be offered for WiVEC and VTC events. All accepted papers (full length and demo papers) will be included in the VTC 2011-Fall conference proceedings and will be published on the IEEE Xplore database. Note: VTC Fall editions are traditionally located in North America, while VTC Spring is located in other areas of the world. Since WiVEC was originally launched co-located with VTC Fall editions, the IEEE Vehicular Technology Society decided that WiVEC would take place every year and a half in order to ensure that the conference is alternatively co-located with VTC Fall and Spring editions. This resulted in that there was no WiVEC edition in 2009. Topics of Interest ------------------ The WiVEC Symposium seeks original papers - not published or currently under review for another workshop, conference, or journal - in the area of vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V), vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I), and vehicle-to-person (V2P) wireless communications. Vehicular communication areas of interest include, but are not limited to: * RF technologies, antenna design, physical layer and propagation models * Radio resource management and interference management * Spectrum assignment and EMC regulations * Vehicular Networking Architectures * Networking protocols (including ad-hoc communication, routing, geocasting, etc.) and their evaluation * Data aggregation and dissemination strategies * Simulation of Vehicular Communication Systems * Scalability issues in vehicular networks. * QoS and cross-layer optimization design * Security, liability and privacy * Testbeds, testing support, and field testing results * Interworking with sensor network technologies * In-car electronics and embedded integration of wireless vehicular communications * Roadside infrastructure * Mobility management, mobility and vehicle traffic models * Digital maps and location technologies * Human-Machine Interface * Applications (eCall, eTolling, traffic information systems, safety applications, wireless diagnosis, etc.) * Standards development, business models, policies * Assessment of impact on transport efficiency and safety Submissions ----------- Authors are encouraged to submit full length papers (maximum 5 pages) or demo papers (maximum 2 pages) following the submission guidelines provided at http://www.ieeevtc.org/wivec2011/ Submission website: http://wivec2011.trackchair.com Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings published by the IEEE and will be included in the IEEE Xplore digital library.
