-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Cost290] U-NET 2010: CFP for the Workshop on User-provided Networking (collocated with Globecom 2010) Datum: Fri, 23 Apr 2010 15:43:13 +0100 Von: Paulo Mendes <pmendes(a)inescporto.pt> An: cost290(a)cs.tut.fi (Appologies if you get this twice) INESC Porto is delighted to invite you to attend and participate in the second edition of the workshop on User-provided Networking (U-NET 2010). The second edition is co-located with IEEE GLOBECOM 2010, and will take place in Miami,USA, December 6th 2010. The workshop encompasses peer-review paper submission and a discussion panel with representatives from Ericsson Research USA, Huawei Research Germany and University College of London. Further details below. Dates * Paper submissions due: July 2nd 2010 * Paper accept notifications: August 13th 2010 * Camera ready due: August 31st 2010 URL:http://ian.inescporto.pt/unet2010/ *Motivation* Wireless technologies are heavily being used as last-hop of fixed networks, as well as starting to be applied to the backhaul. Such flexibility, inherent to wireless technologies, is giving rise to new types of networks which are spread by means of the end-user. Their potential is not explored in terms of new Internet horizons, potential business opportunities, nor in terms of social interaction: user-centric wireless networking models, where cooperation is the key topic, can contribute to the intensification of the phenomenon that is today the core of the so-called Web2.0. The second edition of the U-NET workshop aims at promoting a debate on opportunities and challenges related with user-provided networks, both in technical and in business terms. Such debate is highly relevant as of today since user-provided networking seems to have the potential to provide a paradigm shift in Internet communication models, given that: i) such novel functionality allows local-loop networks to operate in a completely autonomic way; ii) the end-user becomes a provider of Internet services (e.g. connectivity) based upon cooperation incentives or rewards, as well as based upon his/her own mobility patterns and social behavior. The workshop program will include presentations of peer-reviewed papers and a discussion panel with guests from industry and academia. We envision U-NET as a forum aiming to ignite a debate concerning technical challenges and impact (negatively or positively) that user-provided networking may have on Internet communication models. *Topics* Topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Modeling user incentives * Impact on Internet design * UPN challenges and opportunities for access providers * Trust models, incentives to share broadband access * Social mobility modelling * User-centric mobility management * Self-organization * Wireless cooperation *Organization* Program Committee Organizers Paulo Mendes INESC Porto, Portugal Olivier Marcé Alcatel-Lucent Bell Labs, France Rute Sofia (TPC Chair) INESC Porto, Portugal Technical Program Committee (tentative): Rute Sofia INESC Porto, Portugal André Zúquete University of Aveiro, Portugal Vassilis Kostakos University of Madeira, Portugal Jon Crowcroft University of Cambridge, United Kingdom Cecilia Mascolo University of Cambridge, United Kingdom Eiko Yoneki University of Cambridge, United Kingdom Dirk Trossen University of Cambridge, United Kingdom Prosper Chemouil France Telecom, France Martin May Thomson Paris Research Laboratory, France Karen Sollins MIT, USA Lixia Zhang UCLA, USA James Kempf Ericsson Research, USA Roch Guerin Pennsylvania University, USA Shivendra Panwar Polytechnic Institute of New York University, USA George Polyzos Athens University of Economics and Business, Greece Maria Papadopouli FORTH/University of Creete, Greece Anand Prasad NEC, Japan Gunnar Karlsson KTH, Sweden Marcus Brunner NEC, Germany Petri Mähönen RWTH Aachen University, Germany Pan Hui Deutsche Telekom Laboratories, Germany Regards, Paulo Mendes, Olivier Marcé and Rute Sofia, U-NET'10 Organization Chairs -- ------------------------------------------ Paulo Mendes, Ph.D Area Leader, Internet Architectures and Networking Telecommunication and Multimedia Unit INESC Porto Tel. +351 22 209 4264 Fax. +351 22 209 4050 http://ian.inescporto.pt _______________________________________________ Cost290 mailing list Cost290(a)cs.tut.fi https://mailman.cs.tut.fi/mailman/listinfo/cost290

Such a network consists of many small sensor nodes with sensing, computing, communicating, and control capabilities. The wireless sensor networks have a broad spectrum applications ranging from wild life monitoring, battlefield surveillance, to border control and disaster relief, and have attracted significant interests from both academy and industry. A wireless sensor node generally has limited communication and computation capabilities, as well as severely-constrained power supplies, and the networks often operate in harsh unattended environments. Successful design and deployment of wireless sensor networks thus call for technology advances and integrations in diverse fields, including embedded hardware design, data processing, and wireless communications and networking across all layers. One of the key challenges in WSNs is to develop sustainable and scalable system that achieves longer network lifetime. Nodes capable of harvesting environmental energy have been designed and used in many WSN systems. The benefits of using rechargeable batteries by harvesting environmental energy to prolong sensor network lifetime have been well recognized. This special issue aims to summarize the latest development of hardware and software for WSNs, as well as deployment experiences. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: ? Novel transport, network, and MAC protocol design ? Smart in-network processing and control ? Disruption-tolerant/opportunistic mobile sensor networking ? Cross layer design and optimization, duty cycle management ? Channel and network modeling and performance evaluation ? Measurements and experience from experimental systems and test-beds ? New and novel methods for harvesting environment energy ? Hardware design ? Novel applications and architectures We solicit original unpublished research papers only. Papers previously published in conference/workshop proceedings can be considered, but should be substantially extended.

21 Apr '10

Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this Call-for-Papers __________________________________________________________________ Call for Papers: 4th Workshop on Adaptive and DependAble Mobile Ubiquitous Systems ADAMUS 2010 In conjunction with the ACM International Conference on Pervasive Services (ICPS'10), to be held in Berlin, Germany, July 13-16, 2010 ICPS '10 web site : http://www.dai-labor.de/icps/ ADAMUS web site : http://www.adamus.ua.ac.be/ ADAMUS 2010 Best Papers will be invited to extend for possible publication in a special issue of the International Journal of Adaptive, Resilient, and Autonomic Systems (IJARAS, www.igi-global.com/IJARAS) WORKSHOP SCOPE __________________________________________________________________ The vision of mobile and ubiquitous systems is becoming a reality thanks to the recent advances in wireless communication and device miniaturization. The wide-spread industrial uptake of these sy- stems is however compromised by the abrupt changes and challenging dependability requirements imposed by the highly error-prone and heterogeneous mobile provisioning environment. To overcome the intrinsic limitations of mobile devices and envi- ronments, a variety of research studies have produced supporting methods, proof-of-concept prototypes, and disciplines. However, it is still unclear whether current solutions can satisfy the chal- lenging adaptability and dependability requirements of the emer- ging mobile ubiquitous services, such as mobile social networks, smart urban mobility, wireless control of robots, and healthcare. The ambition and mission of ADAMUS is to put on the foreground all above issues and to foster the exchange of ideas and lively discussion in order: to propose mechanisms to model, design, and develop mobile ubiquitous systems; to devise conceptual models and paradigms for change tolerance; to provide analytical and simula- tion tools to measure system ability to withstand faults and to optimally re-adjust to new environments; to develop scalable, maintainable, cost-effective middleware infrastructures able to support and ease the development of adaptive and dependable mobile ubiquitous services. Building on the success of the last three editions, ADAMUS 2010 aims at serving as a meeting ground and common platform of discus- sion for research and industrial bodies in the field of adaptive and dependable mobile ubiquitous systems. Researchers and practitioners are encouraged to participate with high quality papers able to identify open issues, to discuss the limits and/or advantages of existing solutions, or to propose ori- ginal and innovative techniques for adaptive and dependable appli- cations over mobile environments. The main topics of the Workshop include, but are not limited to the following: - Dependability & adaptation requirements, and open issues for mobile ubiquitous systems; - Design principles, models, and techniques for realizing dependa- ble and adaptive mobile ubiquitous systems; - Context data provisioning and modelling, and context-based in- frastructures; - Context-aware service adaptation for mobile clients; - Frameworks and techniques enabling advanced/demanding applica- tions on mobile ubiquitous systems; - Human-machine interaction and usability; - Multi-device and highly heterogeneous ubiquitous systems; - Cross-layer adaptation techniques; - End-to-end approaches to the quality of experience of mobile services; - Autonomous systems for adaptation and dependability; - Mobile-enabled middleware architectures and mechanisms for heterogeneous wireless networks; - Dependability and scalability of web technologies to ubiquitous systems; - Architectures for resource and network monitoring and adaptation to networks conditions; - Dependability measurement of mobile systems and services; - Experience on real-world applications or prototypes of mobile ubiquitous systems.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP: ACM VANET 2010 Datum: Tue, 20 Apr 2010 20:27:59 -0700 (PDT) Von: Fan Bai <fan_bai(a)yahoo.com> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu ======================== ACM VANET 2010 Vehicle to Vehicle -- Vehicle to Roadside -- Vehicle to Internet The Seventh ACM International Workshop on VehiculAr Inter-NETworking In conjunction with ACM MobiCom 2010 Date: September 24, 2010 Chicago, IL, USA Sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILE http://winlab.rutgers.edu/~fanbai/vanet2010/ 　 Important Dates: Paper Submission Deadline: April 23, 2010 Notification of Acceptance: June 25, 2010 Camera-Ready Deadline: July 15, 2010 The goal of this workshop is to present and discuss recent advances in the development of vehicular inter-networking (VANET) technologies. Apart from new and original technical research results, this year we welcome papers on organizational and economic models. Based on short- and medium-range communication as well as on cellular systems, vehicular inter- 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 creation of high-performance, highly reliable, highly scalable, secure, and privacy-preserving VANET technologies presents an extraordinary challenge for the wireless research community. Clearly, the specificity of vehicular inter-networking in terms of mobility behavior, applications scenarios, and application requirements makes VANET research an exciting and demanding application- and purpose-driven sub-discipline of wireless networking. Furthermore, VANET present a very active field of research, development, standardization, and field trials. Throughout the world, there are many national and international projects in government, industry, and academia devoted to VANET. These include research programs like the ones on cooperative systems within the eSafety framework of the European Union, the Intellidrive initiative in the US, Smartway, DSSS (Driving Safety Support System) and ASV (Advanced Safety Vehicle) in Japan, simTD in Germany and SCOREF in France. Standardization is well under way with the activities worldwide in ISO TC204 and IEEE (802.11p and 1609.x), SAE J2735 in the US, ETSI TC ITS and CEN WG278 in Europe and ARIB T-75 in Japan. Authors are invited to submit papers presenting new research related to the theory or practice of vehicular inter-networking (VANET). All submissions must describe original research results, not published or currently under review for another workshop, conference, or journal. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: - Channel modeling - Modulation and coding - Power control and scalability issues - Medium access control protocols - Multi-channel organization and operation - Communication protocol design - Safety, efficiency and commercial applications - Vehicle-to-vehicle/roadside/Internet communication - Simulation frameworks - Field operational testing - Test methodologies - Impact assessment - Network management - Security issues and countermeasures - Privacy issues - Organisational and economic models 　 Submission Instructions All paper submissions will be handled electronically. Papers must be in PDF format, no longer than 10 pages, use the ACM SIG Proceedings Templates (http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates) and must fit properly on US Letter-sized paper (8.5 inch x 11 inch) with reasonable margins. Submitted papers will be judged based on their quality through a double-blind review process, where the identities of the authors are withheld from the reviewers. We also encourage the submission of position papers with a maximum length of 6 pages (following the ACM SIG Proceedings Templates above). Position papers will generally include preliminary results and are expected to describe highly original ideas, discuss new directions, or generate insightful discussion at the workshop. Position papers can be a good way to obtain early feedback before submitting complete work to highly selective venues such as ACM MobiCom. Detailed instructions for paper submission will be posted on the VANET 2010 web page at: http://winlab.rutgers.edu/~fanbai/vanet2010/. 　 Organizing Committee General Co-Chairs: Timo Kosch, BMW, Germany Andre Weimerskirch, escrypt Inc., USA Technical Program Co-Chairs: Marc Torrent-Moreno, Barcelona Digital Centre Tecnològic, Spain Marco Gruteser, Rutgers University, USA Publicity Chair: Fan Bai, General Motors Research, USA 　 Technical Program Committee Fan Bai, General Motors Research, USA Eylem Ekici, Ohio State University, USA Tamer ElBatt, Nile University, Egypt Andreas Festag, NEC Europe Ltd, Germany Hannes Hartenstein, University of Karlsruhe, Germany Daniel Jiang, Mercedes-Benz Research & Development North America,Inc., USA Frank Kargl, University of Twente, The Netherlands Timo Kosch, BMW, Germany P.

Cyber-physical systems are tight integrations of computation, networking, and physical objects, in which embedded devices are networked to sense, monitor and control the physical world. It is believed that CPS will transform how we interact with the physical world just like the Internet transformed how we interact with one another. In particular, there is a trend to build CPS upon wireless and mobile networks as a consequence of unprecedented proliferation of these technologies in recent years. In addition to wireless sensors and actuators, the number of mobile devices that can support wirelessly networked cyber-physical applications has exploded. Some usual examples include smartphones, PDAs, autonomous robots, wearable computers, among others. Ubiquitous applications and services enabled by mobile CPS are opening up great opportunities for improving the quality of our daily life. To fully explore the potential of mobile CPS, however, significant challenges are yet to be overcome. MobiCPS 2010 is an international forum for researchers and practitioners to present innovative ideas and results on all aspects of mobile cyber-physical systems, including theoretical foundations, techniques and methods, tools and platforms, prototypes, and practical applications. Besides research papers, the workshop will feature Invited Talks and a Panel Discussion session. The workshop will be held in Xi'an, China in October 2010, in conjunction with the 7th International Conference on Ubiquitous Intelligence and Computing (UIC2010) (http://www.nwpu.edu.cn/uic2010/). Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Theoretical foundations of CPS - Modeling and analysis of cyber-physical interaction - Sensing and actuation policies - Distributed computing and control - Architectures, design methodologies and tools for mobile CPS - Mobile devices and embedded software platforms for cyber-physical computing - Mobile cyber-physical applications and services - Energy-efficient (green) computing and communications - Wireless networking and mobile communications - Wireless sensor networks - Mobile and participatory sensing - Location-based services - Internet of things - Information consensus - Trust, security, and privacy - Validation, testing, and certification - Prototypes, testbeds, practical experiences, and case studies - Emerging applications in healthcare, transportation, automation, environment, etc. IMPORTANT DATES --------------- Paper submissions due: 30 May 2010 Notification of acceptance: 15 July 2010 Camera ready version due: 30 July 2010 Workshop date: TBA SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS ----------------------- Authors are invited to submit original papers that must not have been submitted to or published in any other workshop, conference, or journal.

INTRODUCTION Computing and communication systems play key roles in modern IT infrastructure, affecting every aspect of life, including services related to health, banking, commerce, defense, education and entertainment. It has been viewed that there are tremendously increasing demands for computing, communication and storage systems since last decades. To fulfill such requirements, modern IT infrastructures have been extended and scaled, which brings various "green" related issues, such as energy consumption, heat dissemination, greenhouse emission and resource total cost of ownership. To make the fully efficient use of computing and communication systems and reduce their environmental and social impact, green computing and communication research has increasingly become a hot topic of interest for the computer research and industry. The study of green computing and communication attempts to alleviate this problem by delivering both high performance and reduced power consumption, effectively maximizing total system efficiency.
