CALL FOR PAPER

The Third International Workshop on Cyber-Physical Networking Systems (CPNS 2013) In conjunction with IEEE ICDCS 2013 8-11 July 2013, Philadelphia, USA

http://www.site.uottawa.ca/~zhuan045/CPNS2013.html

CONFERENCE THEME Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) are integrations of computation, communication, and control processes. Networked computing at multiple scales plays a crucial rule in CPSs as such systems use computation and communication deeply embedded in and interacting with physical processes to drive the cyber-physical coupling. Research advances in cyber-physical networking systems promise to transform our world with networked systems that will far exceed those of today in terms of: effectiveness, adaptability, energy efficiency, precision, reliability, safety, usability, scalability, stability and user-centric applicability.

This workshop is a forum to bring together people from academia and industry to explore research issues and challenges related to Cyber-Physical Networking Systems (CPNSs) and discuss innovative ideas and promising cutting-edge solutions (methodologies, techniques and approaches) on diverse CPNS-related topics. This forum aims to help researchers from academia and industry understand the broad, novel scope of CPNSs and grasp new thinking, challenges, and approaches underlying the issues, technologies, and solutions exchanged from mutual communities. Specifically, this workshop will address CPNS methodologies, modeling, theory, protocols, systems, architectures, and implementations and emerging CPNS technologies. The presentations will also feature industry representatives from prestigious R&D labs who will provide diverse views to facilitate collaboration between academia and industry.

Typical topics include (but not limited to):

Architectural framework for distributed CPNS Resource Management in large scale CPNS Smart Grid Technologies Security, privacy, scalability, and reliability issues Design and cross-layer optimizations Vehicular CPNS and intelligent transportation systems Wireless sensor networking in CPNSs Evaluations and filed trials of CPNS and solutions Novel monitoring applications with sensors, actuators, smart phones, robots, and other wireless mobile

IMPORTANT DATES Submission Deadline: February 10, 2013 Authors Notification: March 10, 2013 Final Manuscript Due: March 25, 2013

SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS Papers must be written in English and in PDF format. The complete manuscript should be no more than 6 pages following IEEE conference proceedings style and guidelines. All paper submissions will be handled electronically by the EasyChair conference management system. Papers should be submitted via the EasyChair CPNS 2013 page: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cpns2013 Authors are expected to present their paper at the workshop. At least one author of each paper must register for ICDCS to be included in the workshop program.
