An emerging trend is the collaboration of miniature devices to achieve a common goal. Representative examples include wireless sensor networks, pervasive computing and embedded systems. Along this trend, the notion of Cooperating Objects collectively refers to embedded computing devices equipped with communication as well as sensing or actuation capabilities, able to cooperate and organize themselves autonomously into networks to achieve a common task. As such, Cooperating Objects envision a single, coherent system formed by a wide range of devices, including those from the areas mentioned above. The complexity germane to the interaction inside and across networks of Cooperating Objects presents a rich set of research questions, and entails a wide range of scientific disciplines, such as networking, software engineering, and control theory. CONET 2011 will provide a discussion forum for researchers, aimed at fostering synergy and convergence of complementary areas towards the vision of networks of Cooperating Objects. Work-in-progress systems, provocative ideas, and position papers paving the road towards such synergy and convergence are particularly welcome. Topics of Interest Authors are invited to submit papers for presentation at the workshop. The topics of interest include theoretical and empirical work in, but not limited to: - Resource management of Cooperating Objects - Quality-of-Service in networks of Cooperating Objects - Hardware platforms for Cooperating Objects - Mobile and distributed sensing - Hybrid cooperation of static and mobile nodes - Communication and control of mobile Cooperating Objects - Distributed control and estimation over networks - Decentralized algorithms for control over wireless sensor networks - Decentralized, distributed, and cooperative optimization - Applications of control of Cooperating Objects - Real-time aspects of Cooperation Objects - System software for Cooperating Objects - Communication support for Cooperating Objects - Real-world deployments of Cooperating Objects - Applications of Cooperating Objects to Body Area Networks - Cooperating Objects in Complex Systems - Security and Privacy in Cooperating Objects - Enterprise Integration of Cooperating Objects - Application of wireless sensor networks on Pervasive computing - Closed-loop applications of pervasive computing Paper Submission A paper must be original material that has neither been previously published nor is currently under review by another conference or journal.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] IWPCM : 2nd call for paper Datum: Tue, 7 Dec 2010 14:42:50 +0100 Von: Jean-Marie Gorce <jean-marie.gorce(a)insa-lyon.fr> Organisation: INSA-Lyon An: <tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu> This is the second call. We apologize for multiple copies ! ---SUBMISSION IS NOW OPEN ON THE WEBSITE --- International Workshop on Propagation and Channel Models for Next Generation Wireless Systems, March 2-4, 2011, Lyon, France More information: http://iwpcm.conf.citi-lab.fr The wireless access networks deployment during the last decades was assisted by specific tools devoted to planning and optimization. The accuracy and effectiveness of such software rely for an important part on the quality of the radio channel prediction. Up to now, cellular networks exploited dedicated radio resources and were deployed under thorough design and planning procedures. Due to the radio spectrum scarcity, two fundamental changes are anticipated. Firstly, the strict reservation of a specific band for a unique standard could evolve toward a priority policy allowing the co-existence of secondary users in a band allocated to a primary system. Secondly, a strong densification of actual cellular networks is expected by combining small outdoor cells and indoor femtocells (Home eNodeB) together with actual systems. This evolution is accompanied with the emergence of cognitive radio that becomes a reality in terminals and the development of self-organization capabilities together with distributed cooperative behaviours. Therefore, the aim of this new workshop is to give new solutions in order to efficiently study the performance of next generation mobile networks, with a particular focus on propagation and channel models. The workshop will feature keynote addresses by: Dr Chia-Chin Chong (NTT Docomo, USA), Prof Luis Correia (Technical University of Lisbon), Prof Thomas Kürner (Technische Universität Braunschweig), Dr Su-Khiong Yong (Marvell Semiconductor) and others to be confirmed Main Topics Academic and industrial researchers are encouraged to submit papers identifying and discussing all the recent issues related to propagation and channel modeling for future wireless systems. Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following: - Deterministic versus statistical channel models, - Outdoor to indoor channel modeling, - Indoor to outdoor channel modeling, - Characterization of relay channels, - Space and time correlated models for shadowing and/or fading, - Non-Gaussian MIMO channel simulation and modeling, - Radio propagation for heterogeneous networking, - Propagation simulation tools for femto/pico/macro cells, - Propagation models for next generation systems, - Indoor/outdoor radio propagation models and scenarios, - Simulation and measurements comparison, - Diversity characterization in space/polarization/time or frequency, The workshop accepts only novel, previously unpublished papers. Prospective authors are encouraged to submit a 4-5 pages standard IEEE conference style paper to this workshop. Accepted papers must be presented at the workshop. Extended versions of some selected papers will be proposed for publication in the EURASIP Journal on Wireless Communications and Networking, special issue on Radio Propagation, Channel Modeling and Wireless Channel Simulation tools for Heterogeneous Networking Evaluation.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [ISCC] [IEEE AOC 2011 - WoWMoM Workshop]: Call for Papers Datum: Tue, 7 Dec 2010 12:06:57 +0100 (CET) Von: Valerio Arnaboldi <valerio.arnaboldi(a)iit.cnr.it> An: iscc(a)mail.ing.unibo.it -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS Fifth IEEE WoWMoM Workshop on Autonomic and Opportunistic Communications (AOC 2011) June 20-24, 2011 - Lucca (Italy) http://cnd.iit.cnr.it/aoc2011/ jointly supported by the SOCIALNETS project funded by the FET-IST Programme under the FET proactive initiative on Pervasive Adaptation (PerAda) http://www.social-nets.eu and SCAMPI project funded by the FP7-ICT Programme under the Future Internet Research and Experimentation (FIRE) initiative http://www.ict-scampi.eu/ Fast Track on Computer Communication Journal http://www.elsevier.com/locate/comcom **** Submission Deadline --- January 31, 2011 **** -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The diffusion of lightweight, powerful portable devices, also enriched with a variety of sensing capabilities, is enabling new ways for users to communicate, and is laying the foundation for the ubiquitous networking idea to become a reality. Risen from the ashes of traditional MANETs, which failed to cope with the variability of a network solely made up from mobile users, opportunistic communications have recently stood out and gained a lot of research attention. Opportunistic networking is the enabling strategy for communications in a mobile network. The idea of opportunistically exploiting extemporary contacts among the users of the network poses new and challenging problems, as well as providing with novel and promising opportunities, to the networking research community. The AOC 2011 workshop will be a meeting point for people working in the area and it will constitute a forum to exchange ideas, discuss solutions, and share experiences among researchers, professionals, and application developers, both from industry and academia. The AOC 2011 workshop will have a primary interest in the new directions of opportunistic communications represented by mobile social networking, content-centric networking, and participatory sensing. More in general, papers tackling issues related to opportunistic networking and computing are welcome. Original papers addressing both theoretical and practical aspects of autonomic and opportunistic communications are solicited, as well as papers describing prototype implementations and deployments. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Architectures and models for autonomic and opportunistic communications * Advanced technologies for enabling autonomic and opportunistic communications * Tools and techniques for designing, analysing and building autonomic and opportunistic networks * Scaling laws and fundamental limits in autonomic and opportunistic communications * Performance modeling of autonomic and opportunistic communications * Autonomic and opportunistic communication testbeds and measurements * Algorithms, models, and architectures for opportunistic computing * Mechanisms, algorithms and testbeds for service provisioning in autonomic and opportunistic networks * Algorithms, models, and architectures for content centric autonomic and opportunistic networks * Mobile social networking in autonomic and opportunistic communications * Participatory and urban sensing in autonomic and opportunistic networks * Resource management techniques applied to autonomic and opportunistic communications * Context and social awareness in autonomic and opportunistic networks * Routing, transport, and reliability issues in autonomic and opportunistic communications * Techniques for data dissemination and replication in autonomic and opportunistic networks * Applications and middleware support for autonomic and opportunistic communications * Mobility models and statistical analysis of mobility traces * Trust, security, and reputation in autonomic and opportunistic communications * Socio-economic models for autonomic and opportunistic communications PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION -------------------------------- Papers should neither have been published elsewhere nor being currently under review by another conference or journal. Manuscripts are limited to 6 pages, single spacing, double column, and must strictly adhere to the template format. Guidelines on paper submission and formatting are available at http://cnd.iit.cnr.it/aoc2011/. Accepted papers will appear in the symposium proceedings published by IEEE. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register and present his/her work at the workshop. There will be no separate registration for workshop, but one single registration will cover both conference and workshops participation. Extended versions of workshop selected papers will be considered for possible fast track publication on the Computer Communications Journal (Elsevier).
