Included in this email are the following: * Multimedia 2005 Conference Submission Deadline reminder * CFP Multimedia 2005 Video Program * Letter from Larry Rowe about ACM TOMCAP Journal http://acmmm05.comp.nus.edu.sg/ Please help us publicize this conference by forwarding this email to any interested colleagues. ************************************************************************ ******* SUBMISSION DEADLINES FOR MULTIMEDIA 2005 November 6-12, SINGAPORE 16 May 2005 Abstract Registration for Full Papers 23 May 2005 Submission deadline for Full Papers, Arts Exhibits for Interactive Arts Program, and Videos for Video Program 20 Jun 2005 Submission deadline for Short Papers, Short Papers for Interactive Arts Program, and Short Videos for Video Program 20 Jun 2005 Proposals for Panel due 29 Jul 2005 Submission deadline for Workshop, Open Source Software Competition, Technical Demonstration, and Doctoral Symposium Papers The full conference CFP can be found at: http://acmmm05.comp.nus.edu.sg/ Details for subscribing/unsubscribing from this list can be found below. ************************************************************************ ******* -- MULTIMEDIA 2005 VIDEO PROGRAM -- Call for Video Demonstrations We invite you to make a video for ACM Multimedia 2005. This forum is an ideal way to demonstrate your tool, system, application or brave new idea without having to bring the equipment for a "live" demo. Even if you have never made a video before, we encourage you to consider this opportunity for Video Submissions at ACM Multimedia 2005. Video Submissions Category There are three categories of video submissions: + Video demonstrations (8 minutes) - gives a self-explanatory demo of a tool, system, or application. In addition we would like to encourage media artists to submit work that exemplifies new trends in video art or describes an interactive multimedia art application. + Video visions (8 minutes) - describes a new brave idea of multimedia technology. + Video figures (3 minutes) - accompanies a regular or short paper submission and serves as an illustration. Accepted video demonstrations and video visions are presented during the video demonstration session, whereas video figures are presented together with the paper during the allocated session. Videos will be published on a dedicated web site at the SIGMM website (see http://www.sigmm.org/apache/video2004/ - for previous years). The best video demonstration and video vision will get a special podium. Submission details and information: http://acmmm05.comp.nus.edu.sg/videoprogram.html ************************************************************************ ******* -- Letter from Larry Rowe -- An Open Letter to the SIGMM Community: I am writing this message to ask for your help with the new ACM Transactions on Multimedia Computing, Communications, and Applications (TOMCCAP). Many of you know that the community was unhappy that the Springer-Verlag MMS Journal was not included in the ACM Digital Library and that it did not incorporate networking and applications specifically in it's topic area. As a result, a recommendation was made at the SIGMM Retreat at Multimedia 2003 that we create our own journal to be published by ACM. Professor Nicolas Georganas generously agreed to undertake the task of creating the journal, which just published its first issue - see http://www.acm.org/tomccap/ The transactions will be published four times per year. We need your support to make this an outstanding publication. Please consider submitting papers and agreeing to review papers sent to you by members of the editorial board. At the very least, I think 20%-30% of the papers published in our annual conference should appear in the transactions. The ACM rules on prior publication require that the journal paper be at least 25% different than the prior publication. We all know that the limitation on pages imposed by the conference proceedings constrains our ability to explain all of the algorithms, experiments, and nuances in a research project. Consequently, it should be easy to modify a conference publication for the transactions. Another way you could support the transactions would be to consider editing a special issue on an important topic. I suspect each of the workshops at the Multimedia Conference could identify and shepard 3-4 important papers that reflect the important ideas in the area. Having been a guest editor, I know this is a lot of work. But, please consider doing it as the contribution you will be making is both valuable and, dare I say, good for your career. To submit a paper or investigate other issues related to the transactions, just go to the TOMCCAP website listed above. Best wishes, Larry Rowe TOMCAP web site - http://www.acm.org/tomccap/

The security research community has mainly focused on securing routing and is only recently widening its scope of analysis to other security areas. The cryptography research community has mainly focused on standard networks, like the Internet; however, cryptographic protocols for the Internet face serious challenges to be adapted to the ad-hoc, partial-connectivity, mobile, and infrastructureless nature of ad-hoc networks. The aim of this workshop is to help bridging this gap, towards a more comprehensive investigation of security and cryptographic tools, analysis and modeling methodologies over (mobile) ad hoc networks, by bringing together the cryptography, network security, and wireless networking communities. We seek submissions containing original research on all aspects of cryptology in wireless ad hoc networks. Short surveys of sub-areas are also encouraged. Main topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following: Ad Hoc Networks and Resources Modeling Secure Routing Security Bootstrapping Trust Establishment Distributed Public-Key Infrastructures Key Agreement, Management and (Pre)Distribution over Ad Hoc Networks Resource-Constrained Cryptography over Ad Hoc Networks Threshold Cryptography over Ad Hoc Networks Identity-Based Cryptography over Ad Hoc Networks Policy-Based Cryptography over Ad Hoc Networks Secure Multi-Party Protocols over Ad Hoc Networks Security in Distributed Algorithms and Protocols Important Dates: Submission Deadline: April 31, 2005 Notification of Acceptance: May 13, 2005 Camera-Ready Papers: May 20, 2005 Program Chair: Giovanni Di Crescenzo, Telcordia, NJ, USA. giovanni(a)research.telcordia.com Program Committee: Mike Burmester (Florida State University) David Carman (Johns Hopkins AP Lab), Giovanni Di Crescenzo (Telcordia), Renwei Ge (University of Delaware), Jonathan Katz (University of Maryland), David Naccache (Gemplus), Giuseppe Persiano (University of Salerno), Zulfikar Ramzan (Docomo Labs), Raj Rajagopalan (Hewlett Packard Labs), Ravi Sundaram (Northeastern University), Doug Tygar (UC Berkeley), Serge Vaudenay (Swiss Federal Institute of Technologies).

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Tccc] CFP: ACM VANET 2005 Date: Fri, 22 Apr 2005 21:03:39 -0700 From: Chen-Nee Chuah <chuah(a)ece.ucdavis.edu> To: <tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu> [Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP, but please forward to anyone you believe may be interested -- thanks!] CALL FOR PAPERS VANET 2005 The Second ACM International Workshop on Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks In conjunction with ACM MobiCom 2005 Sponsored by ACM SIGMOBILE September 2, 2005 Cologne, Germany Web site: http://www.sigmobile.org/workshops/vanet2005/ Important Dates: Paper Submission Deadline: May 9, 2005 Notification of Acceptance: June 20, 2005 Camera-Ready Deadline: July 13, 2005 The goal of this workshop is to explore the development of wireless vehicular ad hoc networking (VANET) technologies. Enabled by short- to medium-range communication systems (vehicle-vehicle or vehicle-roadside), the VANET vision includes vehicular realtime and safety applications, sharing the wireless channel with mobile applications from a large, decentralized array of commercial service providers. VANET safety applications include collision and other safety warnings. Non-safety applications include real-time traffic congestion and routing information, high-speed tolling, mobile infotainment, and many others. Following the success of VANET 2004 held last year in Philadelphia, VANET 2005, the Second ACM International Workshop on Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks, will be held in Cologne, Germany, September 2, 2005, in conjunction with MobiCom 2005. Authors are invited to submit papers presenting new research related to the theory or practice of vehicular ad hoc networks (VANET). All submissions must describe original research, not published or currently under review for another workshop, conference, or journal. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: * Safety and commercial applications * Protocol design (including low-power, cross-layer, etc.) * Security and privacy * Power control * Multi-channel organization and operation * Network management * Modulation and coding * Channel modeling The opportunities for VANET are growing rapidly. In December 2003, the U.S. FCC approved 75 MHz of spectrum for Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC), and the resulting DSRC system is expected to be the first wide-scale VANET in North America. In Japan, two DSRC standards have been adopted (the ARIB STD-T75 in 2001, the ARIB STD-T88 in 2004), and Japanese auto manufactures are working with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, and Transportation in the third phase of an ambitious Advanced Safety Vehicle project. The German Ministry of Education and Research has sponsored the Fleetnet and Network on Wheels projects. Throughout the world, there are many national/international projects in government, industry, and academia devoted to VANETs. Creating high-performance, highly scalable, and secure VANET technologies presents an extraordinary challenge to the wireless research community. Yet, certain limitations commonly assumed in ad hoc networks are mitigated in VANET. For example, VANET may marshal ample computational and power resources. Mobility patterns are constrained by road paths and driving speed restrictions. As opposed to sensor networks, VANET represents high resource/performance wireless technologies. Submission Instructions All paper submissions will be handled electronically. Papers must be in PDF format, no longer than 10 pages (single- or double-column), in font no smaller than 11 points, and must fit properly on US Letter-sized paper (8.5 inch × 11 inch) with reasonable margins. Submitted papers will be judged based on their quality through a double-blind review process, where the identities of the authors are withheld from the reviewers. Detailed instructions for paper submission will be posted on the VANET 2005 web page at http://www.sigmobile.org/workshops/vanet2005/ Please email questions related to paper submission or the technical program to vanet2005-pc-chairs(a)monarch.cs.rice.edu . Please email general questions about VANET 2005 to vanet(a)path.berkeley.edu.
