-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: Call for Paper: CoMoRea'07 Datum: Thu, 24 Aug 2006 11:45:25 +0200 Von: Daniela Nicklas <nicklas(a)ipvs.uni-stuttgart.de> Antwort an: Daniela Nicklas <nicklas(a)ipvs.uni-stuttgart.de> Organisation: Universität Stuttgart An: wolf <wolf(a)ibr.cs.tu-bs.de> +--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | 4th Workshop on Context Modeling and Reasoning (CoMoRea) | | at the 5th IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing | | and Communication (PerCom'07), New York, USA. | | http://nexus.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de/COMOREA | | | | Call for Paper | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ OUR SINCERE APOLOGIES IF YOU RECEIVE MULTIPLE COPIES OF THIS ANNOUNCEMENT Workshop Scope ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Context-aware applications intelligently support user tasks by acting autonomously on behalf of users and this autonomy is based on evaluation of context information. Some models of context information already exist, however many research issues related to context information modeling are still not fully addressed. A generic approach to context modeling is needed in order to capture various features of context information, including a variety of types of context information, dependencies between context information, quality of context information and context histories. Hybrid approaches to context modeling -- such as approaches that combine ontology-based modeling with alternative modeling techniques -- also need to be explored, as many of the current solutions are too limited to capture the richness of context information and support the necessary reasoning. In addition, to ease software engineering problems encountered in programming context-aware applications, appropriate abstractions are necessary to support discovery and reuse of context information, as well as scalable methods of context processing and management. It is also necessary to increase user acceptance of autonomously adapting applications by developing methods of balancing autonomy of context-aware applications with user control. This workshop’s aim is to advance the state-of-the-art in context information modeling, reasoning and management, and in methods that balance autonomy of context-aware applications with user control. The goal is to identify concepts, theories and methods applicable to context modeling and reasoning, as well as system-oriented issues related to the design and implementation of context-aware systems. CoMoRea will provide a forum for researchers to present and discuss recent research results and ongoing work. A strong emphasis will be put on experiences with context modeling and the management of the context information. The workshop will foster exchange of experiences and collaboration among researchers. In particular, the following topics are of interest to this workshop: * Context modeling techniques * Domain-specific context models * Ontology-based approaches to context modeling and reasoning * Hybrid context models (integration of various modeling techniques) * Advanced issues in context modeling, including issues of information quality and ambiguity * Context reasoning algorithms, their complexity and accuracy * Discovery and reuse of context information * Privacy of context information * Distributed and scalable context management * Experiences with using context models to build context-aware applications * Tool support for context modeling and development of context model-based applications * Balance of autonomy with user control Publication ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Submitted papers will be refereed by the workshop Program Committee. Accepted papers will appear in the PerCom 07 Workshops proceedings published by IEEE Computer Society Press. Submissions ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Submitted papers should address at least one of the workshop topics. The papers should be in the IEEE format and should be no more than 5 pages in length. Research papers must be an original unpublished work and not under review elsewhere. Experience reports must be stated as such and a comprehensive discussion of the taken approach, experiences, and its assessment is expected. Papers should be submitted via the EasyChair CoMoRea page, http://www.easychair.org/CoMoRea07/ Important Dates ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- * Paper submissions due by: September 29, 2006 * Paper selections due by: November 25, 2006 * Final papers due to IEEE: December 22, 2006 * Workshop date: March 19 or 23, 2007 Organizers: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Co-chairs: Jadwiga Indulska, The University of Queensland, Australia Daniela Nicklas, Stuttgart University, Germany Program Committee: Jalal Al-Muhati, King Saud University, Saudi Arabia John Bateman, Bremen University, Germany Claudio Bettini, University of Milan, Italy Oliver Brdiczka, INRIA, France Jadwiga Indulska, University of Queensland, Australia Gerd Kortuem, Lancaster University, UK Ghita Kouadri Mostefaoui, University of Montréal, Canada Daniela Nicklas, Universitaet Stuttgart, Germany Gregor Schiele, Universitaet Stuttgart, Germany Thomas Strang, German Aerospace Center, Germany Anand Ranganathan, IBM T.J.

We apologize in advance if you receive multiple copies of this CFP. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS - WONS 2007 The Fourth International Conference on Wireless On-demand Network Systems and Services January 24-26, 2007. Obergurgl (Innsbruck), AUSTRIA http://wons07.uibk.ac.at ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Scope of the conference ----------------------- The world of wireless networks in the last few years has definitely turned its attention and focus more on "lightweight" networks, cheap and easily deployed, rather than the traditional, infrastructured cellular networks. The aim is providing ubiquitous connectivity and network centric services, with the important attribute of service provisioning "on demand" with minimal planning and management effort as well as with little dependency on existing network infrastructures. Even in the cellular network world, providers often point out their capacity to offer ad-hoc services that are tailored for a specific event or community, e.g. gaming on cellular networks. On the other extreme, peer2peer systems can provide innovative communication services to a community on ad-hoc networks, requiring almost no infrastructure. Ambient intelligence and ubiquitous computing are also part of this broad vision of "on demand" networking, providing services to users when they need it, albeit the final user might not even be aware if it! WONS is now at its fourth edition, and the community interest is still on the rise, providing a premier forum for high quality papers presentation and lively discussion. For this conference we request submissions of high quality research papers on "wireless on demand networks" that provide novel insights on protocol and network design, modeling and performance evaluation, pricing and profitability models, QoS models, practical implementations, service level aspects and Internet integration of wireless networks. Topics related to wireless ad hoc networks and sensor networks comprise, but are not limited to: * Architecture and Design * Analysis through simulation and experimental evaluation * Modeling * Internet integration * Social and economic aspects * Pervasive / ubiquitous computing * Localization and mobility management * Security * Energy-efficient protocols and power management * Applications and Service Support * Data dissemination and peer2peer systems Schedule -------- Paper registration deadline: September 1, 2006 Paper due: September 7, 2006 (No further extension will be granted!) Feedback to authors: October 30, 2006 Final manuscripts to publisher: November 20, 2006 (tentative) Conference: January, 24-26, 2007 Manuscript submissions ---------------------- Submitted papers must not have been published elsewhere nor currently be under review by another conference or journal. Authors are invited to submit full papers (8 pages) and short papers (4 pages). Short papers should address future research directions, ongoing work, and visionary, innovative ideas. All papers should be submitted electronically as PDF, according to the IEEE publisher format. The papers will be published in the conference proceedings published by the IEEE.

[Fwd: [Cost290] CFP - 1st IEEE International Workshop on Bandwidth on Demand (BoD 2006)]
by Lars Wolf 06 Aug '06

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Cost290] CFP - 1st IEEE International Workshop on Bandwidth on Demand (BoD 2006) Datum: Fri, 04 Aug 2006 17:09:56 +0200 Von: David Hausheer <hausheer(a)ifi.unizh.ch> An: cost290(a)cs.tut.fi Apologies for possibly receiving multiple copies of this CFP. Call for Papers 1st IEEE International Workshop on Bandwidth on Demand (BoD 2006) http://www.csg.unizh.ch/events/bod06/ In conjunction with IEEE GLOBECOM 2006 http://www.ieee-globecom.org/2006/ November 27, 2006 San Francisco, California, USA Scope Electronic marketplaces for trading bandwidth have emerged since the late 1990’s, but were seriously hit by the economic downturn in 2001. The promise of instant bandwidth availability had led to the development of market mechanisms that companies used to trade bandwidth just as other commodities. However, those trading markets all but disappeared with the bursting of the telecom bubble. Driven by the recent technical advances in telecommunications and the new potentials of emerging peer-to-peer (P2P) and next generation networks (NGN), the goal of this workshop is to take a fresh and innovative look at the concept of bandwidth on demand (BOD). Recent advances in the Internet-based communications domain, in which the support of Quality-of-Service and diverse application services become possible, require in many cases short-termed bandwidth assignments for, e.g., large sporting events or cultural open air activities. In addition, the support of bandwidth trading in a fully decentralized and secured manner, e.g., based on P2P schemes, shows further advantages in terms of reliability and scalability for large-scale systems. Topics of Interest The workshop seeks original papers in the following four areas that serve as basis for bandwidth on demand: * Economic studies and modeling of market and business models in carrier and service provider networks o Game theoretical bandwidth-on-demand models o Cost and revenue models o Bandwidth-on-demand business models o Market liquidity aspects * Technical design of scalable, reliable, and cost-effective bandwidth trading infrastructures, including market mechanisms as a way to increase efficiencies o Scalable market mechanisms o Secure and reliable market infrastructures o Bandwidth trading mechanisms o IP-based and decentralized trading mechanisms o P2P trading infrastructures, distributed markets o P2P auctions * Legislative and regulatory issues related to the Telecom Act and in comparison to other commodities markets such as the electric grid o Telecom legislation o Telecom regulation o Commodities markets * Industrial developments of new technologies that facilitate or create impediments to bandwidth on demand o Network management aspects o Technical improvements in transport and data networks Paper Submissions Papers are solicited as full papers (in English), of no more than 8 single-spaced pages, each of which will be subject to a full review process. Submissions must be in PDF and will be handled using the JEMS system. Please refer to http://www.csg.unizh.ch/events/bod06/ for further submission instructions or contact bod06(a)ifi.unizh.ch for additional information. Those papers accepted will be published in proceedings with an ISBN number.
