Internet social network applications such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter etc. are providing valuable social information on contacts and their relationships. Wireless and mobile devices which are capable of creating, storing, processing, forwarding and sharing content are socially connected in a new radical networking and adaptive architecture harnessing the social behavior and mobility of the users. Thus, SocNets enable the pervasive connectivity without the need to maintain fully connected always-on networks. Such SocNets communities trigger exciting research interests in collaborative systems arising from the analysis of the structure and properties of SocNets. The use of private social information provides additional avenues for new networking operations --- for example, problems that allow the exploitation of SocNets to solve network and system security vulnerabilities, and how these new social network solutions can shape the design of secured distributed systems and networks; development of cross-layered architecture for diverse pervasive applications to distribute user-generated content based on social relationships and behaviors; etc. It also requires the cross-disciplinary research integration of computer science and engineering, biology, physics, anthropology, social sciences, etc. The goal of this special session is to catalyze cross-disciplinary research discussions that are of relevance to new and novel computer networking ideas, applications and experimental results in the area of SocNets. We solicit papers covering various topics of interest that include (but are not limited to) the following: -- Implications of social networking on future network architecture -- System design for social networks -- New social science of networks -- Physical and virtual social networks -- Social-based mobility -- Mobile and pervasive social networks -- Social community-based communication -- Real world applications of social network analysis and theory -- New social-inspired content creation and distribution networks -- New aspects of trust, privacy and security systems in social networking -- Data confidentiality and integrity in social networks Important Dates -- Submission Deadline: August 15, 2009 -- Acceptance Notification: September 10, 2009 Submission Instructions Authors are invited to submit regular technical papers or position papers. The position papers should present novel technologies at an early stage of development or share future vision. All submissions should describe original, previously unpublished research, not currently under review by another conference or journal. Manuscripts should not exceed five (5) pages in double-column IEEE format. Please submit the paper through EDAS. Formatting details can be found under Submission Guidelines on the CCNC website.

[Tccc] CALL FOR PAPERS: LOCAN, 14-16, Dec. 2009, China
by Guoliang Xing 02 Aug '09

02 Aug '09

----------------------------------------------------------------------- Our apologies if you receive duplicates of this posting. Please feel free to distribute it to those who might be interested. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS LOCAN 2009 The 5th International Workshop on Localized Communication and Topology Protocols for Ad hoc Networks http://www.site.uottawa.ca/~xuli/locan2009 In conjunction with MSN, 14-16, Dec. 2009 Wu Yi Mountain, China Subject and Purpose of the Workshop ----------------------------------- This workshop covers comprehensively the algorithmic issues in the hot area of ad hoc and sensor networking. In particular, sensor networks are currently recognized as one of the priority research areas and research activities are booming recently. The workshop scope includes network layer problems like data communication (routing, QoS-routing, geocasting, multicasting, broadcasting, etc.) and topology control (neighbor discovery, power adjustment, neighbor elimination, etc.). The main paradigm shift is to apply localized (or greedy) schemes as opposed to existing protocols requiring global information. Localized algorithms are distributed algorithms where simple local node behavior achieves a desired global objective. Localized protocols provide scalable solutions, that is, solutions for wireless networks with an arbitrary number of nodes, which is the main goal of this plan. Sensor and rooftop/mesh networks, for instance, have hundreds or thousands of nodes. The objective of the workshop is to present state of the art research results on data communication and topology control in rapidly growing area of ad hoc and sensor networks, with emphasizes on localized techniques Topics of Interest ------------------ We are seeking papers that describe original and unpublished contributions addressing various aspects of ad hoc networking. Possible topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Medium access control for ad hoc networks * Analytical, mobility and validation models for ad hoc networks * Hybrid networks and wireless Internet * Security in ad hoc networks * Data management, query processing, and data delivery in sensor networks * Unicast routing, multicasting, and broadcasting in ad hoc networks * Geocasting and anycasting in ad hoc networks * Energy-efficient and bandwidth-efficient protocols for ad hoc networks * Quality of service in medium access control and routing * Topology construction and maintenance in ad hoc networks * Neighborhood discovery and mobility management in ad hoc networks * Localized protocols for duty-cycled sensor networks * Auto-configuration and network formation protocols and algorithms * Relative positioning algorithms * Lower bounds on information exchange required for localized solutions * Network graph properties supporting localized protocols * Worst and average case analysis on the deviation from optimal solutions Submissions ----------- Papers must not exceed 8 single-spaced and two-column pages using at least 10 point size type on 8.5 x 11 inches pages. See style files, author guidelines and instructions at the conference website. Accepted papers will be included in the MSN main proceedings and will be published by the IEEE Press and EI-indexed. At least one author of each accepted paper must be registered for the conference in order for that paper to appear in the proceedings and to be scheduled for presentation. Authors are requested to submit their papers (PDF format) through EasyChair "http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=locan09". For submission-related questions, please contact program co-chairs. Important Dates --------------- Manuscript Submission: September 1, 2009 Acceptance Notification: October 1, 2009 Camera Ready Manuscript Due: October 15, 2009 General Co-Chairs ----------------- David Simplot-Ryl, Univ.

However, this architecture is losing its original simplicity and transparency as new classes of applications, business models, security mechanisms, scalability enablers and operational and management requirements give rise to point solutions that extend the architecture without regards to its original design principles. Although these developments are necessary in the short term to allow the Internet to continue to operate under the present economical, technical and social conditions, in combination, they have significantly reduced the potential for longer-term evolution of the Internet architecture. This loss of flexibility is already being felt as the number of Internet nodes grows by another order of magnitude. Several substantial Future Internet initiatives are underway in Europe, the Americas and Asia, and the vendor and network operator communities are also actively discussing the limitations of the current Internet architecture as well as its potential evolution. The first solution proposals in this space have already started to be analyzed. ReArch'09 - the second instance of this workshop since its very successful debut at CONeXT 2008 - will discuss the underlying problems of the Internet architecture and protocols and debate how we might fix them in a way that regains us the original architectural simplicity and clarity of the Internet for another 30+ years. This workshop solicits original, high-quality papers that analyze and discuss ideas for a new Internet architecture, including specific improvements to current Internet protocols, especially at the internetworking, transport and application layers, new internetworking components that integrate into the existing architecture and ideas for clean-slate internetworking architectures. Topics ReArch'09 covers all aspects related to the current and future Internet architecture including, but not limited to, the following impact: * New networking paradigms * New business models * New routing architectures * New traffic engineering and congestion control mechanisms * Measurements and analyses that characterize and quantify architectural limitations * New architecture proposals and their implications for research and operations * New protocols to address specific architectural limitations * Studies of interactions between stakeholders of the Internet and the architecture itself * Design principles and interfaces to accommodate the conflicting interests of stakeholders in the architecture * Principles of evolving future architectures * Discussions on interworking with the existing Internet and deployability Papers that present interesting, fresh ideas at an early stage are more suitable for this workshop than highly polished results or incremental refinements of previous work. Submissions may include position papers that point out new directions and attempt to stimulate discussion; position papers should be clearly marked as such. Submission must be original and not already be published or submitted for publication elsewhere. The proceedings of the workshop will be published in the ACM Digital Library. Submissions Submitted papers must be at most six (6) pages long, including all figures, tables, references, appendices, etc. They must be formatted according to the standard ACM double column format *except* that *all* text must use a font size of 10 points or larger. Longer submissions will not be reviewed. The review process is single-blind. Submit papers via EDAS at http://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=7673 Submission Deadline: August 6, 2009 Notification Deadline: September 10, 2009 Camera Ready Deadline: October 1, 2009 ReArch'09: December 1, 2009 Committees Workshop Co-Chairs Lars Eggert, Nokia Research Center & TKK, Finland Tilman Wolf, University of Massachusetts, USA Technical Program Committee Bengt Ahlgren, SICS, Sweden Mark Allman, ICSI, USA Bob Briscoe, BT Group, United Kingdom Brian Carpenter, University of Auckland, New Zealand Jon Crowcroft, University of Cambridge, United Kingdom Kevin Fall, Intel Research, USA Pierre Francois, UC Louvain, Belgium James Griffioen, University of Kentucky, USA Robert Hancock, Roke Manor Research, United Kingdom Mark Handley, University College London, United Kingdom Hiroaki Harai, NICT, Japan Daniel Massey, Colorado State University, USA Martin May, Thomson Research, France Akihiro Nakao, Univeristy of Tokyo, Japan Pekka Nikander, Ericsson Research Nomadiclab, Finland Craig Partridge, BBN Technologies, USA George Rouskas, North Carolina State University, USA Peter Steenkiste, Carnegie Mellon University, USA Christian Vogt, Ericsson Research, USA Klaus Wehrle, RWTH Aachen, Germany Rolf Winter, NEC Network Labs, Germany Martina Zitterbart, University of Karlsruhe, Germany Steering Committee Marcelo Bagnulo, University Carlos III of Madrid, Spain Olivier Bonaventure, UC Louvain, Belgium Kenjiro Cho, IIJ, Japan Joe Touch, USC/ISI, USA _______________________________________________ Tccc mailing list Tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu https://lists.cs.columbia.edu/cucslists/listinfo/tccc

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] IEEE PerHealth 2010: Call for Papers Datum: Thu, 30 Jul 2009 18:24:28 +0200 (CEST) Von: Eleonora Borgia <eleonora.borgia(a)iit.cnr.it> An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu Our sincere apologies if you receive multiple copies of this announcement. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS PerHealth 2010 - The First IEEE PerCom Workshop on Pervasive Healthcare (http://cnd.iit.cnr.it/perhealth2010/) in conjunction with the Eighth IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing and Communications - PerCom 2010 (http//www.percom.org/) Mannheim, Germany March 29, 2010 (tentative) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- **** Paper Submission Deadline --- October 18, 2009 **** Sponsored by IEEE, IEEE Computer Society --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Pervasive Healthcare constitutes one of the most promising and technically challenging application domains for pervasive computing. It involves many research areas, from wearable computing and ubiquitous connectivity to context-awareness, sensor data fusion, artificial intelligence, expert systems, medical analytics, databases and user-friendly interfaces. While significant technological progress has been achieved in the past few years, further work is needed to develop complete systems that can really improve the patient quality of life and reduce medical errors and costs. First of all, an efficient, reliable, and complete pervasive healthcare system must satisfy both medical and patient requirements in terms of accuracy, reliability, unobtrusiveness and user acceptance. To do this, a multidisciplinary approach is necessary starting from the integration of new wearable technologies in a single Body Area Network to the design and development of system architectures and middleware solutions able to support efficient and dependable services like continuous remote monitoring, patient tracking, and ambient assistance. The IEEE PerHealth workshop will provide a forum where researchers in the area of Pervasive Healthcare can discuss current results in the field and possible hints for future work. Original contributions are solicited related to all areas involved in the design of pervasive healthcare systems. TOPICS Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: - Wearable and Implantable sensors for healthcare - Pervasive communications in healthcare - Service and device discovery - Data fusion and context elaboration - Privacy and security issues in healthcare - Middleware for pervasive healthcare - Energy Efficiency in health monitoring - Artificial intelligence and expert systems - User interface, usability and acceptability of pervasive healthcare systems - Home monitoring and ambient assisted applications for healthcare - Healthcare applications for clinicians - Business Models of Pervasive Health Delivery - Standards and frameworks SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Papers should contain original material and not be previously published or currently submitted elsewhere. Manuscripts must be limited to 6 pages including text, figures, references and appendices, organized following the IEEE 8.5x11 conference format, and formatted in accordance with the IEEE Computer Society author guidelines. The link for the templates can be found at: http://www2.computer.org/portal/web/cscps/formatting . All submissions will be handled via EDAS. Accepted papers will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press in the PerCom 2010 Workshops Proceedings and will appear on IEEE Xplore. At least one author of each accepted paper must register and attend the workshop to present the paper. There is no workshop-only registration. An oral presentation at the workshop is strictly required. No-shows of accepted papers at the workshop will result in those papers NOT being included in the IEEE Digital Library. Extended versions of selected papers with special merit will be considered for a possible fast track publication on Pervasive and Mobile Computing Journal (Elsevier). IMPORTANT DATES Paper submission: Oct. 18, 2009 Author notification: Dec. 21, 2009 Camera-ready due: Jan. 29, 2010 For further information, please contact the workshop chairs at perhealth2010-chairs(a)iit.cnr.it or visit the workshop website (http://cnd.iit.cnr.it/perhealth2010/).
