-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Zhuozhao Li <zl5uq(a)VIRGINIA.EDU> Gesendet: 18. Oktober 2021 04:23:34 MESZ An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [CFP] The 6th IEEE International Conference on Fog and Edge Computing (ICFEC 2022) [Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP] ============================================================================ ======= The 6th IEEE International Conference on Fog and Edge Computing (ICFEC 2022) May 16, 2022, Taormina (Messina), Italy in conjunction with IEEE/ACM CCGrid 2022 URL: https://icfec2022.eecis.udel.edu/ ============================================================================ ======= We are delighted to invite you to the 6th IEEE International Conference on Fog and Edge Computing to be held in Taormina (Messina), Italy. INTRODUCTION The number of Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices is predicted to reach 38.6 billion by 2025. These connected devices, ranging from user devices to more complex systems, such as vehicles and power grids, are equipped with sensing, actuating, communication, processing, and storage capabilities, and they generate huge amounts of data of various types. However, the need to operate the scale of heterogeneous IoT devices while being performance-efficient in real-time is challenging. Typically, the data generated by the IoT devices are transferred to and processed centrally by services hosted on geographically distant clouds. This is untenable given the communication latency incurred and the ingress bandwidth demand. A new and disruptive paradigm spear-headed by academics and industry experts is taking shape so that applications can leverage resources located at the edge of the network and along the continuum between the cloud and the edge. These edge resources may be geographically or in the network topology closer to IoT devices, such as home routers, gateways, or more substantial micro data centers. Edge resources may be used to offload selected services from the cloud to accelerate an application or to host edge-native applications. The paradigm within which the edge is harnessed is referred to as "Fog/Edge computing". The Fog/Edge computing paradigm is expected to improve the agility of service deployments, to allow the usage of opportunistic and cheap computing, and to leverage the network latency and bandwidth diversities between these resources. Numerous challenges arise when using edge resources, which require the re-examination of operating systems, virtualization and containers, and middleware techniques for fabric management. New abstractions and extensions to current programming and storage models are necessary to allow developers to design novel applications that can benefit from massively distributed and data-driven edge systems. Addressing security, privacy, and trust of the edge resources is of paramount importance while managing the resources and context of mobile, transient and hardware-constrained resources. The integration of edge computing and 5G will also bring new opportunities and unique challenges. Enabling machine/deep learning at the edge is critical for many applications. Lastly, emerging domains like autonomous vehicles and smart health need to be supported by fog and edge resources. CALL FOR PAPERS The conference seeks to attract high-quality contributions covering both theory and practice over systems research and emerging domain-specific applications related to next-generation distributed systems that use the edge and the fog. Some representative topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Data centers and infrastructures for fog/edge computing * Mobility management in fog/edge computing * Distributed and federated machine learning in the fog and on the edge * 5G and fog/edge computing * Middleware and runtime systems for fog/edge infrastructures * Programming models for fog/edge computing * Storage and data management platforms for fog/edge computing * Scheduling and resource management for fog/edge infrastructures * Security, privacy, trust and provenance issues in fog/edge computing * Distributed consensus and blockchains at the edge and in the fog * Modeling and simulation of fog/edge environments * Performance monitoring and metering of fog/edge infrastructures * Innovative, latency-sensitive and locality-critical applications of fog/edge computing SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS We invite original manuscripts that have neither been published elsewhere nor are under review at a different venue.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] IEEE TNSM - Special Issue on “Design Reliable Communication Networks” - Deadline Approaching (Nov. 1st) Datum: Sun, 17 Oct 2021 15:13:29 +0000 Von: Massimo Tornatore <massimo.tornatore(a)POLIMI.IT> Antwort an: Massimo Tornatore <massimo.tornatore(a)POLIMI.IT> An: tccc-announce(a)comsoc.org Sorry for multiple postings! IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management Special Issue on “Recent Advances in the Design and Management of Reliable Communication Networks” Reliability of communication infrastructures is a top priority for network operators. To ensure reliable network operation, new design and management techniques must be constantly devised to respond to the rapid network and service evolution. As a recent and relevant example, deployments of 5G communication networks will soon enter their second phase, during which the network infrastructure will require upgrades to support new Ultra-Reliable services with availability of up to 6 nines. Similarly, disaster resiliency in communication networks is now attracting the attention of media, governments and industry as never before (consider, e.g., the worldwide network traffic deluge to support remote working during the current COVID19-pandemic!). Luckily, several new technical directions can be leveraged to provide new solutions for network reliability such as for example: increased network reconfigurability enabled by Software Defined Networking (SDN); integration/convergence of multiple technologies (optical, wireless, satellite, datacenter networks); enhanced forms of data/service replication, supported by, e.g., edge computing; network slicing, used to carve highly-reliable logical partitions of network, computing and storage resources. These, and many other technological transformations can enable next-generation high-reliability networks. Given the strong interest in both industry and academia towards reliability of telecom networks and cloud-computing infrastructures, we organize this IEEE TNSM Special Issue as a second Special Issue as part of a Series on Design and Management of Reliable Networks. in IEEE Transactions on Network and Service Management, with the first issue published in September 2021. The Special Issue aims at the timely publication of recent and innovative research results on this important topic. This Special Issue is organized in collaboration with the International Conference on the Design of Reliable Communication Networks (DRCN), which was held in April this year. DRCN is a well-established forum for scientists from both industry and academy who have interest in reliability and availability of communication networks.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] Call For Papers - IEEE ICC 2022 Workshop on Synergies of communication, localization, and sensing towards 6G Datum: Fri, 8 Oct 2021 16:28:48 +0000 Von: Henk Wymeersch <henkw(a)CHALMERS.SE> Antwort an: Henk Wymeersch <henkw(a)CHALMERS.SE> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Apologies for cross-posting 1st Call For Papers IEEE ICC 2022 Workshop on Synergies of communication, localization, and sensing towards 6G Scope Research on 6G is now well underway and several large initiatives have been launched around the globe to define what this new generation of wireless networks will be. These definitions are supported by a wide variety of technological enablers, ranging from access in the THz spectrum, which bring massive bandwidths and laser-like beamforming capabilities, to the introduction of new antenna technologies and intelligent metasurfaces, which provide massive apertures and new ways of shaping the propagation medium. Due to the wide variety of envisioned use cases, 6G will not lead to a one-size-fits-all solution, but rather inspire a rich diversity in terms of devices, spectrum usage, and technologies. Common among many emerging services in need of 6G is the requirement for localization and sensing to be an integral part of 6G. The ability of 6G to locate and track active users as well as passive objects will be part of the core communications functionality and will enable and enrich a wide variety of futuristic services, including immersive augmented reality, robot collaboration, and environment/earth monitoring. These services will lead to a more inclusive and sustainable 6G ecosystem. The overarching vision of this workshop is that the synergies among localization, sensing, and communications within the 6G ecosystem require a common venue, not focusing on any specific technological enabler, but rather support a broad and diverse set of viewpoints, including those from industry (telecom and radar industries) and academia (communications, signal processing, and circuits communities). Topics We seek original completed and unpublished work not currently under review by any other journal/magazine/conference. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: · Use cases and applications of communication, localization, and sensing in a 6G context · 6G communication, localization, and sensing in the millimeter-wave and THz bands · Location-based network management and analytics · Communication, localization, and sensing with reconfigurable intelligent surfaces · Full duplex schemes for simultaneous communication and localization and/or sensing · Air interface and waveform design for integrated communication, localization, and sensing · Protocols for integrated communication, localization, and sensing · Signal processing techniques (including machine learning, AI, and beamspace processing) for integrated communications, localization, and sensing · Modeling of hardware, antennas, channels or propagation for joint communication and sensing · Localization and sensing at different frequency bands · Coexistence, coordination, and cooperation between radar and communication in 6G · Communication and positioning with energy-neutral devices and massive IoT · Energy-efficient, scalable (network and/or transceiver hardware) architectures and strategies for joint communication and sensing · Location-aware ultra-reliable communications · Context-aware localization systems · THz imaging, positioning/localization, THz spectroscopy in 6G General Co-chairs · Henk Wymeersch, Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden · Stefania Bartoletti, CNR and CNIT, Italy · Liesbet Van der Perre, KU Leuven, Belgium · Angeliki Alexiou, University of Piraeus, Greece · George C.

-------- Ursprüngliche Nachricht -------- Von: Kapal Dev <kapal.dev(a)IEEE.ORG> Gesendet: 6. Oktober 2021 22:46:44 MESZ An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] [CFP] - IEEE Transactions on Green Communications and Networking *** Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP *** Dear colleagues, You are cordially invited to submit your latest research results to *IEEE Transactions on Green Communications and Networking, * *Special Issue on Green Communication and Networking for Connected and Autonomous Vehicles* With the advancements in Internet of Things (IoT) and communication technologies (5G beyond/6G), Connected and Autonomous Vehicles (CAV) is eventually being realized and will make a major contribution to the development of smart mobility systems in the pursuit of green and sustainable economies. Cooperative driving features allowed by CAVs will dramatically reduce CO2 emissions, allowing for more environmentally friendly intelligent, smart and sustainable transportation. More sophisticated green communication and networking computation technologies are needed for CAVs environments due to the heterogeneity of networking organizations, strict implementation specifications, and restricted resources. Future CAVs networks would have a greater range of sensors and multi-access edge settings, allowing for more effective use of various modes of frequency spectrum. Simultaneously, novel services reduced travel time, cooperative autonomous driving, reduced maintenance and infrastructure costs, improved energy efficiency, etc. all require unparalleled high precision and reliability, ultra-low latency, and wide bandwidth. Even though Green communication for CAVs is a potential disruptive research direction that can revolutionize the typical transportation system, it is not being fully realized as several challenges in CAVs are yet to be addressed. Some of the critical challenges in the realization of CAVs are data storage, privacy and security issues, energy optimization of the IoT sensors in the vehicles, regulatory uncertainties, real time analytics of the big data generated from CAVs, etc. This Special Issue solicits high-quality research works from researchers from academia and industry to propose innovative ideas to address the issue of energy optimization in CAV networks. Theoretical, experimental studies, and case studies on energy optimization/green communication in CAV are welcome. We solicit papers covering various topics of interest that include, but are not limited to, the following topics: - Resource Optimization for green communication and networking in CAVs - Machine, federated, Transfer and deep learning-based models for green communication and networking in CAVs - Edge assisted green communication and networking for CAVs - Edge AI for green communication and networking for CAVs - Digital Twin for green communication and networking for CAVs - Intent-based Networking for green communication and networking for CAVs - Applications of meta-heuristic algorithms for green communication and networking in CAV - Energy optimization for 5G and beyond enabled CAVs - Blockchain/Smart Contracts for energy optimization in CAV - Efficient routing protocols for energy optimization in CAVs - Test beds for green communication systems for CAVs - SDN, VNF, NS for green communication systems for CAVs - Optimization techniques (Harris Hawk, search and rescue, etc.) for green communication systems for CAVs *Submission Guidelines* Authors need to follow the manuscript format and an allowable number of pages described at the IEEE TGCN Information for Authors <https://www.comsoc.org/publications/journals/ieee-tgcn/information-authors> page.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [TCCC-ANNOUNCE] CfP - IEEE/IFIP WONS 2022 @ Oppdal, Norway Datum: Tue, 5 Oct 2021 08:45:46 +0000 Von: Peyman Teymoori <peymant(a)IFI.UIO.NO> Antwort an: Peyman Teymoori <peymant(a)IFI.UIO.NO> An: tccc-announce(a)COMSOC.ORG [Apologies in advance if you receive multiple copies of this email.] Dear Colleagues, 17th IEEE/IFIP Wireless On-demand Network systems and Services Conference (WONS) will be held on 30 March - 1 April 2022, in Oppdal, Norway. Please see the Call for Papers below and consider submitting your novel research papers. The paper submission deadline is Nov 19, 2021. Webpage: http://2022.wons-conference.org/ CALL FOR PAPERS Wireless on-demand network systems and services have become pivotal in shaping our future networked world. Starting as a niche application over Wi-Fi, they can now be found in mainstream technologies like Bluetooth LE, LTE Direct and Wireless LANs, and have become the cornerstone of upcoming networking paradigms including mesh and sensor networks, cloud networks, vehicular networks, disruption tolerant and opportunistic networks, and in-body networks. The challenges of this exciting research field are numerous. Examples include how to make smart use of these novel technologies when multiple technologies or a mix of permanent services and on-demand networking opportunities are available to a network node, how to provide robust services in highly dynamic environments, how to efficiently employ and operate heavily resource-constrained devices, and how to develop robust and lightweight algorithms for self-organization and adaptation. IEEE/IFIP WONS, now numbering seventeen editions, has established itself as a high quality forum to address these and related challenges. WONS’22 is able to continue to provide a global platform for rich interactions between experts in their fields, discussing innovative contributions in a stimulating environment. This announcement solicits original contributions of high-quality research providing novel insights on all aspects of wireless on-demand networks and systems; from protocol and network design, modeling, performance evaluation, profitability models, energy efficiency, QoS models and mechanisms, practical implementations, service level aspects, application use-cases, to the integration of multiple wireless network technologies. Topics of interest comprise, but are not limited to: 5G and 6G networks Cognitive radio networks Cross-layer design Data analytics and ML/AI driven network systems Green wireless networks Heterogeneous wireless networks Implementations and testbeds Internet of Things Intra-body and biomedical on-demand systems Localization and mobility management Middleware aspects Mobile computing and services Network and service management Novel architectures and protocols Novel applications and services Open source software, open source hardware and open data Performance evaluation through simulations, emulations and real-world experiments Pervasive and ubiquitous computing Quantum computing and networking Security, privacy, and trust Social and economic aspects Theoretical and data driven modeling and optimization Vehicular networks WONS 2022 is Technically Co-Sponsored by IFIP TC6 and the IEEE Computer Society's Technical Committee on Computer Communications (TCCC). Accepted and presented papers will appear in the conference proceedings published in the IFIP Open Access Digital Library and the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. REVIEW PROCESS We will have at least 3 reviews per paper and we count on the TPC members to do the reviews themselves in order to ensure high quality and comprehensive reviews. After the reviews, TPC members will discuss the paper and will reach one of the following decisions: ‘Accept’, ‘Revise’ or ‘Reject’. The papers in the ‘Revise’ category will be assigned a shepherd. The shepherd will oversee the revision process (which will take around 3-4 weeks) and ultimately decide on whether the paper will be accepted or not. We will assign the shepherds among the program committee on a voluntary basis. With the introduction of the shepherding to the review process this year, our goal is to further improve the paper quality at WONS’22. IMPORTANT DATES Paper registration: Nov 12, 2021 Paper submission: Nov 19, 2021 Acceptance notification: Jan 17, 2022 Camera ready: Feb 25, 2022 ______________________________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.
