-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: MOBIMEDIA 2010 - Call for Papers Datum: Mon, 21 Dec 2009 13:13:24 +0100 Von: Maria Morozova <maria.morozova(a)icst.org> Organisation: ICST An: wolf(a)ibr.cs.tu-bs.de *MOBIMEDIA 2010* 6th International Mobile Multimedia Communications Conference * 6-8 September May 2010, Lisboa, Portugal* http://www.mobimedia.org/ *CALL FOR PAPERS* *SPONSORS* Sponsored by ICST <http://www.icst.org> Technically co-sponsored by CREATE-NET <http://www.create-net.org/> *** *SCOPE* The focus of MOBIMEDIA 2010 is future internet for green and pervasive media. The promise of a truly pervasive experience is to have the freedom to roam around anywhere and not be bound to a single location, however, the energy required to keep mobile devices connected to the network over extended periods of time quickly dissipates. In fact, energy is a critical resource in the design of wireless networks since wireless devices are usually powered by batteries. >From the mobile manufacturer’s perspective the energy consumption problem is critical, not only technically but also taking into account the market expectations from a newly introduced technology. In fact there exists a continuously growing gap between the energy consumption of emerging radio systems and what can be achieved by Battery technology evolution; Scaling and circuit design progress; System level architecture progress; and Thermal and cooling techniques. Without new approaches for energy saving, there is a significant threat that the 4G mobile users will be searching for power outlets rather than network access, and becoming once again bound to a single location. There is added momentum from the European stage for green radio to globally reduce the electromagnetic radiation levels to have a better coexistence of wireless system (less interference) as well as a reduced human exposure to radiation leading to the so called Green Wireless technologies. Hence, there is a clear need for disruptive strategies to address all aspects of power efficiency from the user devices through to the core infrastructure of the network and how these devices and equipment interact with each other. In this framework, Mobimedia will provide an international forum where industry, researchers and academia will be able to interact and exchange experiences, ideas, and research results surrounding all aspects on power saving to envisage a environmentally friendly internet of the future. *** *TOPICS* Prospective authors are invited to submit original and unpublished technical papers on the following research topics, but not limited to: * Cooperative communications * Cognitive radio networks * Software defined radio approaches * Shortr-ange communications * Energy efficient radio resource management and routing * QoE multimedia for Future Internet * P2P multimedia for autonomic wireless infrastructures. * Energy efficient reconfigurable radio transceivers * Network coding * Internet of things * Cross-layer and Cross-System optimization strategies for wireless multimedia * User and device location in next generation networks * Security mechanisms and schemes in cooperative networks * Resource and mobility management in cooperative network * Dynamic resource management and bandwidth assignment for multimedia in heterogeneous wireless networks. * IMS for Multimedia services in next generation networks *** ***SUBMISSION* For submission guidelines, please visit http://www.mobimedia.org/submission.shtml *** *IMPORTANT DATES* Papers due: *23 April 2010* Notification of paper acceptance: *28 May 2010* Submission of camera-ready papers: *25 June 2010* *** *ORGANIZING COMMITTEE* *General Chair* Jonathan Rodriguez, Instituto de Telecomunicações, Portugal *Program Committee Co-Chairs* Rahim Tafazolli, University of Surrey, UK Christos Verikoukis, CTTC, Spain For a complete list of committee and board members, please visit http://www.mobimedia.org/committees.shtml *** / <mailto:unsubscribe@icst.org>Please, feel free to share the information about the conference and forward this Call for Papers to people that are interested in the topic.

You are invited to submit papers via http://acnlab.csie.ncu.edu.tw/IJAHUC-SI. Best regards, Jehn-Ruey Jiang Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering National Central University Jhongli City, Taoyuan, 320, Taiwan **Please help distribute the CFP** **We apologize if you received multiple copies of this CFP** ************************************************* Call for Papers *International Journal of Ad Hoc and Ubiquitous Computing (IJAHUC)* *Special Issue on: "The Smart Digital Home"* *Guest Editors:* *Prof. Prof. Shing-Tsaan Huang, National Central University, Taiwan, R.O.C. * *Dr. Fong Pong, Broadcom Corporation, California, USA * *Assoc. Prof. Jehn-Ruey Jiang, National Central University, Taiwan, R.O.C.* A smart digital home refers to a living space with devices that are connected through wired or wireless networks. The connected devices may be sensors, actors, consumer electronics, appliances, mobile and PC devices that cooperate transparently for facilitating living and improving usability in the home. Sensors can capture the and/or detect physical phenomena, like temperature, humidity, illumination, etc., of living environments and notify other devices of the phenomena; actors and other devices can then act according to the phenomena to provide context aware services. Home care of the old, the young, the sick and the disabled can benefit from smart digital home technologies, by which carers are able to acquire the states of the home and the residents anytime, anywhere and to take proper actions immediately. By the technologies, proper actions can also be triggered automatically in the presence of specific events, such as resident falling, and stove catching fire, etc. Smart digital home technologies enable working from home, remote education, network shopping, online gaming, etc. High speed broadband network access and all-IP technologies enabled by frameworks of IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem), SDP (Service Delivery Platforms), DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance), and so on, offer new communication capabilities. We can foresee that innovative smart digital home applications benefiting from high network capabilities will be blooming in the near future. Since a variety of devices presents in a smart digital home, convergent (across all the screens of TVs, PCs, appliances and mobile devices) and personalized user experience is evidently the key for the success of new residential applications. *Subject Coverage* The goal of this special issue is to bring together the researchers from academia and industry as well as practitioners to share ideas, problems and solutions relating to the multifaceted aspects of the smart digital home.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [InternetTC] CFP: The Fourth IEEE International Workshop on Wireless Mesh and Ad Hoc Networks (WiMAN 2010) Datum: Sat, 19 Dec 2009 07:32:51 -0500 Von: Habib Ammari <Habib.M.Ammari(a)hofstra.edu> An: <itc(a)comsoc.org> The Fourth IEEE International Workshop on Wireless Mesh and Ad Hoc Networks (WiMAN 2010) http://people.hofstra.edu/Habib_M_Ammari/WiMAN_Workshop2010.html In conjunction with ICCCN 2010 Zurich, Switzerland, August 2-5, 2010 CALL FOR PAPERS Workshop Objectives Recently, wireless mesh and ad hoc networking is attracting significant interest from academia, industry, and standard organizations. With several favorable characteristics, such as dynamic self-organization, self-configuration, self-healing, easy maintenance, high scalability and reliable services, wireless mesh networks have been advocated as a cost-effective approach to support high-speed last mile connectivity and ubiquitous broadband access in the context of home networking, enterprise networking, or community networking. Despite recent advances, and the technical accumulations from more than a decade of research efforts in mobile ad hoc networks, many research issues remain in all protocol layers of wireless mesh networks. For example, the introduction of mixed (infrastructure and ad hoc) architecture, multi-radio, multi-channel, and multi-antenna, have brought new challenges in the design of physical, MAC, and routing protocols. New application scenarios, such as all-wireless office, are urging researchers to address enhanced QoS support and various security issues in the design of different protocol layers for wireless mesh networks. This workshop aims to bring together the technologies and researchers who share interest in the area of wireless mesh and ad hoc networks. Its main purpose is to promote discussions of research and relevant activities in the design of architectures, protocols, algorithms, services, and applications for wireless mesh and ad hoc networks. Also, this workshop aims at increasing the synergy between academic and industry professionals working in this area. We seek papers that address theoretical, experimental, and work in-progress at the all layers of wireless mesh and ad hoc networks, from application layer to the physical layer. Topics covered in this workshop will include, but will not be limited to, the following: • Multi-radio and multi-channel wireless mesh networking • Wireless LAN, PAN, MAN and WAN • Multi-hop wireless communications and ad hoc networking • MAC protocols (IEEE 802.11, 802.15, 802.16, 802.20, and beyond) • Routing, scheduling, and channel assignment protocols • Implications of smart antennas on MAC and routing protocols • Quality of Services provisioning • Multimedia communications over mesh and ad hoc networks • Network deployment, localization, and synchronization • Topology construction and maintenance • Methods and tools for mesh and ad hoc networks simulation • Modeling and performance evaluations • Physical layer techniques • Cross layer optimizations • Power-aware and energy-efficient protocols and algorithms • Self-organization, self-configuration network architectures • Intelligent system techniques for mesh and ad hoc networks • Security-related issues in mesh and ad hoc networks • Novel applications of mesh and ad hoc networks • Wireless sensor networks and RFID • Test beds, prototypes, and practical systems Submission Guidelines Authors are invited to submit manuscripts reporting original unpublished research and recent developments in the topics related to the workshop. Submissions should include an abstract, key words, and the e-mail address of the corresponding author. The length of the papers should be limited to 6 pages in standard IEEE camera-ready format (double-column, 10-pt font). Detailed submission instructions will be posted on the workshop webpage. Submission of a paper should be regarded as an undertaking that, should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register and attend the workshop to present the work.

The integration of heterogeneous networks is revolutionizing the ICT area, introducing new opportunities, better communication channels and an enhanced quality of provided applications and services. In this environment, a user is able to connect to a number of heterogeneous RATs (Radio Access Technologies), either covering the same, or complementing geographical areas. These networks can be macro-cellular, WLANs, femto-cellular or even ad-hoc. In this environment, seamless mobility is coupled according to user preferences, enabling mobile users to be "Always Best Connected" (ABC) so that Quality of Experience is optimised and maintained. Furthermore, communication security is required at both communication and service layer. One of the goals of the workshop is to exchange of ideas and interaction among the different European Projects on the topic in question, with a special focus on FP7 projects related to mobility management systems. European technology platforms are also invited to present their views in the area. EUMOBILE 2010 will give researchers the opportunity to present their latest results on this topic.
