Call for Papers IEEE INFOCOM 2019 Workshop on Ultra-Low Latency in Wireless Networks (ULLWN) Paris, France April 29, 2019
In order to handle the ever-increasing traffic load, existing wireless networks have typically been designed and planned with a focus on improving throughput and increasing coverage. Achieving ultra-low latencies – often together with unprecedented levels of reliability, has not been in the mainstream in most wireless networks, due to the focus on human-centric communications and delay-tolerant content. However, a plethora of socially useful applications and new uses of wireless communication are envisioned in areas such as augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR), industrial control, automated driving or flying, mission-critical IoT, remote robotics, smart grid and tactile Internet. In response, new releases of mobile cellular networks (mainly focusing on 5G new radio and beyond) are envisaged to support scenarios with extremely strict requirements in terms of latency (ranging from 1 ms and below to few milliseconds end-to-end latency depending on the use cases). Low latency communication poses significant theoretical and practical challenges, requiring a departure from throughput-oriented system design towards a holistic view (network architecture, control, and data) for guaranteed and reliable end-to-end latency. Cooperative networking can maintain the robustness of network connectivity, since in cooperation, wireless nodes assist each other for improved connectivity and increased diversity. Most present systems employ centralized resource allocation, which is inappropriate for such applications though, as it relies on a significant control-layer overhead and incurs severe latency.
The ULWWN workshop will be held in Paris on April 29, 2019, in conjunction with IEEE INFOCOM 2019. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
* Low latency communication in mission-critical and emergency applications * Cooperative networks for achieving ultra-low latencies * Buffer-aided cooperative networks with stringent delay constraints * Fundamental limits, performance analysis, network theoretic approaches (e.g. stochastic network calculus, timely throughput) * Anticipatory network models for low-latency networking * Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence for achieving ultra-low latencies * Edge caching and content replication for low latency * Network slicing and network function virtualization * Applications * Factory automation and industrial control * Tactile Internet * Industry 4.0 * Intelligent transportation * V2X communications * Remote robotics * Smart grid * eHealth * Mobile edge cloud computing * Safety-critical avionics
The proposed workshop will provide a forum where researchers, technical experts, and practitioners could share the latest results and insights on how to achieve ultra-low latencies in wireless networks. In addition to presenting key and emerging results, the workshop (through its keynote, panel and regular sessions) is expected to identify new challenges and opportunities in this area.
Submission Guidelines The ULLWN Workshop calls for original and unpublished papers no longer than 6 pages. The review process is single blind. The manuscripts should be formatted in standard IEEE camera-ready format (double-column, 10-pt font) and be submitted as PDF files (formatted for 8.5x11 inch paper). Manuscripts should be submitted as PDF files through the EDAS website.
Important dates Submission: December 30th, 2018 Decisions: February 22nd, 2019 Camera ready: March 10th, 2019
Workshop Organizers Prof. Nikolaos Pappas (Linkoping University, Sweden) Prof. Themistoklis Charalambous (Aalto University, Finland) Dr. Marios Kountouris (Huawei Technologies, France)
