WETICE 2009: Collaboration & Cloud Computing: Call for Workshop Papers
by Rao Mikkilineni 22 Jan '09

22 Jan '09

Workshop Announcement: WETICE2009 is announcing its workshops for participation in Gronigen, Netherlands, (June 29 - July 1st) www.WETICE.org It's first workshop in collaboration and cloud computing will focus on emerging excitement in Cloud Computing www.workshop.kawaobjects.com While current advances in cloud computing are commercially motivated and initiated by various service providers that different from conventional telecom or IP service providers, there is a body of experience from the academia, traditional telecommunications and IP service providers that can accelerate cloud deployment. We would like to solicit participation from not only current cloud computing pioneers but also challenge the academics and traditional computing and communications industry participants to bring their expertise and know-how to suggest innovative and open approach that can benefit cloud evolution. It is our belief that the telecommunication network and the Internet which are globally scalable and interoperable were made possible with collaboration from academics, industry and the creation of global standard bodies such as ITU and ITEF. Just as the telecommunication network connected billions of people to communicate with each other, and the Internet connected millions of computers, PCs and mobile devices to exchange multimedia content, the next generation clouds will enable social networks allowing hundreds of thousands of developers to create millions of services to reach billion of users. For the clouds to be interoperable and globally scalable, new innovation is necessary that brings new distributed computing models that are network centric and incorporates FCAPS management. Many lessons learned in many disciplines need to be brought together to accelerate the cloud evolution with open, vendor independent and technology agnostic collaboration frameworks. This workshop will sow the seed for the collaboration required. Papers reporting original work, work-in-progress, doctoral research proposals, descriptions of systems, and review papers are solicited from the academia, and the computer and telecommunication industries. All papers will be refereed by at least two experts in the area. For more information about Collaboration & Cloud Computing, see: http://www.workshop.kawaobjects.com For more information about the complete conference, see: http://www.wetice.org Important Dates: Deadline for paper submission: February 20, 2009 Decision to Authors: March 13, 2009 Final papers in PDF format to IEEE: April 10, 2009 Conference: June 29 - July 1, 2009 You can submit your papers to workshop(a)kawaobjects.com To unsubscribe from this IEEE Communications Society Meetings and Conferences mailing list send a blank email message to Call_For_WorkshopProposals09-remove(a)comsocconferences.org.

[Fwd: [Mycolleagues] JCM Special Issue on Delay Tolerant Networks, Architecture and Applications]
by Lars Wolf 21 Jan '09

21 Jan '09

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Mycolleagues] JCM Special Issue on Delay Tolerant Networks, Architecture and Applications Datum: Wed, 14 Jan 2009 00:13:24 +0000 Von: Joel Rodrigues <joeljr(a)ieee.org> An: Mycolleagues(a)grid.lrg.ufsc.br CALL FOR PAPERS Journal of Communications (JCM, ISSN 1796-2021) Special Issue on Delay Tolerant Networks, Architecture, and Applications Delay-tolerant networks (DTNs) are designed to address networks that exhibit intermittent connectivity. In general DTN architecture can be defined by one or more of the following characteristics: (a) sparse connectivity (i. e., end-to-end route between source and destination may not even exist); (b) long or variable delay; (c) asymmetric data rate; and (d) high error rate. Such characteristics can be results of various factors, including sever power fluctuations, wireless range, network partitioning, catastrophic disasters, or malicious attacks. Consequently, applications of DTNs are highly diverse and can be expanded to a wide variety of areas. Examples of such areas are interplanetary networks for deep space communications, sensor networks for ecological monitoring, transient networks to benefit developing communities, ad hoc networks to disseminate information in tactical or roadway environments, and disaster recovery networks to restore communications following a natural disaster. Diversity of network environments and inherent uncertainty about network conditions make design of DTNs highly challenging in terms of architecture, protocol designs, interoperability, security, management, and stability. We hope this special issue can address some of these issues and further stimulate activity in the research community. The goal of this special issue is to bring together the state-of-the- art research contributions that address the various aspects of delay/disruption tolerant communications, networks, architecture, and applications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Multicasting and broadcasting * Routing protocols for stochastic and deterministic time evolving networks * Integration with other systems and networks, such as free-space optical communications systems, MANET, VANET, C2C, Deep space, Acoustic Underwater, ad hoc, sensor/actuator networks * Models for rural connectivity and disconnected ad hoc networks * Multimedia and web searching * Hybrid DTN * Security, stability, survivability, and interoperability * Wireless DTN technologies, including RF, UWB, free-space optical, and acoustic * Network architecture and design, including link technology and node design * Applications, testbeds, and implementations * Management, configuration, QoS, and authentication * User mobility support, naming, and addressing * Protocols and overlay architecture * Delay tolerant networks and energy efficiency * Economic models and feasibility SUBMISSION PROCEDURE: Papers should be submitted as PDF format electronically to joeljr(a)ieee.org with a Subject of SI/JCM. All submitted papers will be reviewed by at least three experts following the standard review process of the Journal of Communications to ensure the high quality of the special issue of the journal. Further information on Journal of Communications can be found at: http://www.academypublisher.com/jcm/ .

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] CFP: ACM NOSSDAV 2009 --- Submission site is up! Datum: Tue, 20 Jan 2009 09:49:48 +0800 Von: Kuan-Ta (Sheng-Wei) Chen <swc(a)iis.sinica.edu.tw> Antwort an: swc(a)iis.sinica.edu.tw Organisation: Academia Sinica An: tccc(a)lists.cs.columbia.edu [Apologies if you receive this more than once] === [ ACM NOSSDAV 2009 ] === The 19th International Workshop on Network and Operating Systems Support for Digital Audio and Video Williamsburg, Virginia June 3-5, 2009 http://www.nossdav.org/2009/ SPONSORED BY: ACM SIGMM in cooperation with ACM SIGCOMM and ACM SIGOPS * Important Dates Paper Deadline: 9 February, 2009 Notification: 20 March, 2009 Camera Ready: 6 April, 2009 * About NOSSDAV NOSSDAV 2009 will continue the workshop's long tradition of focusing on emerging topics, controversial ideas, and future research directions in the area of multimedia systems research, held in a setting that stimulates lively discussions among the senior and junior participants. It is also an established practice for NOSSDAV to encourage experimental research based on real systems and data sets. Public availability of source code and data sets is highly encouraged. The scope of NOSSDAV has evolved over the years. For NOSSDAV 2009, we would like especially highlight two new topics of interest: unconventional use of GPU for multimedia and multi-core processors support for multimedia. NOSSDAV 2009 continues to welcome submissions in the traditional topics of networked multimedia systems, operating system support for multimedia, and multimedia security and rights management. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * OS, middleware and network support for multimedia * Overlay networks for multimedia * Media streaming, distribution and storage * Web 2.0 systems and social networks for multimedia * Wireless and mobile multimedia systems * Media sensor and ad hoc networks * Grid/cloud computing support for multimedia * Embedded systems for multimedia * Multicore architecture support for multimedia * GPU for multimedia * Network processor support for multimedia * Tele-immersion and mixed-reality systems * Networked graphics and virtual environments * Networked games * Multimedia communications and system security * Digital rights management A broad view will be taken in deciding what topics are within scope. Please contact the workshop co-chairs if you are unsure and wish to check if a particular topic is within the scope of NOSSDAV. Submissions should be at most SIX pages in length using standard ACM proceedings style. We expect these submissions to be the kernel of what will eventually lead to full-length papers at high-quality conferences or journals. Authors of selected, high quality papers from NOSSDAV 2009 will be invited to submit an extended version of their papers to a special issue of ACM/Springer Multimedia Systems Journal (MMSJ).
