[Mycolleagues] The 6th International Conference on Autonomic Computing and Communications

(Apology for multiple copies)

 

The 6th International Conference on Autonomic Computing and Communications

Barcelona, Spain, June 15–19, 2009

 

Sponsored by IEEE CS (Pending) and in cooperation with ACM (Pending

 

http://icac2009.acis.ufl.edu/

 

Call for papers

 

SCOPE

 

To deal with the increasing complexity of large-scale computing systems,

computers and applications must learn to manage themselves in accordance

with high-level guidance from humans – a vision that has been referred to

as autonomic computing.  Meeting the grand challenges of autonomic computing

requires scientific and technological advances in a wide variety of fields,

as well as new software and system architectures that support the effective

integration of the constituent technologies. The purpose of the 6th

International Conference on Autonomic Computing and Communications (ICAC-09)

is to bring together researchers and practitioners addressing all aspects of

self-management in computing systems and applications. In doing so, we hope

to further build and nurture a community that can work together to realize

the vision of large-scale self-managing systems. The conference builds on

previous highly influential meetings in New York, Seattle, Dublin,

Jacksonville and Chicago.

 

Papers are solicited on a broad array of topics of relevance to autonomic

computing, particularly those that bear on connections and relationships

among different areas of research or report on prototype systems or

experiences. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

 

     * Autonomic computing systems or prototype systems that exhibit

       self-monitoring, self-configuration, self-optimization, self-healing,

       and/or self-protection.

     * Fundamental science of self-managing systems: understanding,

       controlling, or exploiting emergent behavior, fault-tolerance, machine

       learning, control theory, predictive methods and their use to automate

       manual operations and enforce behavior.

     * Software engineering principles and architectures for self-managing

       systems, based on interoperable Grid Services, agent-based systems,

       Web Services, model-based systems or novel paradigms such as biological,

       economic or social.

     * System-level technologies, middleware or services that entail

       interactions among two or more components of self-managing systems in

       standalone, distributed, cluster, and Grid computing environments (e.g.,

       health monitoring, dependency analysis, problem localization or

       remediation, workload management, and provisioning).

     * Toolkits, environments, models, languages, runtime and compiler

       technologies for building self-managing components, systems or

       applications.

     * Specific self-managing components, such as server, storage, network,

       data center or specific application elements. Emphasis should be placed

       on techniques or lessons that may generalize to other components.

     * Management topics, such as specification and modeling of service-level

       agreements, negotiation/conversation support, behavior enforcement,

       etc., tie in with IT governance, and interaction with legacy systems.

     * Interfaces to autonomic systems, including user interfaces, interfaces

       for monitoring and controlling behavior, techniques for defining,

       distributing, and understanding policies.

     * Experiences with autonomic system or component prototypes: measurements,

       evaluations, or analyses of system behavior, user studies, experiences

       with large-scale deployments of self-managing systems or applications.

     * Applications of autonomics to real and complex problems in science,

       engineering, business and society.

 

 

PAPER/POSTER SUBMISSIONS AND PUBLICATION

 

Full papers (a maximum of 10 pages in length) and posters (2 pages) are invited

on a wide variety of topics relating to autonomic computing as indicated above.

All manuscripts will be reviewed and judged on merits including correctness,

originality, technical strength, quality of presentation, and relevance to the

conference themes. Submitted papers must include original work, and may not be

under consideration for another conference or journal. They should also not be

under review or be submitted to another forum during the ICAC-09 review process.

Authors should submit full papers or posters electronically (PDF or postscript)

via EDAS using the link on the ICAC-09 conference web site. Formatting

instructions will also be posted at the web site. Accepted papers and posters

will appear in proceedings published by IEEE Computer Society (to be

confirmed), which will be distributed at the conference. Authors of accepted

papers/poster are expected to present their work at the conference.

 

 

WORKSHOPS, DEMONSTRATIONS AND EXHIBITION

 

ICAC-09 welcomes proposals for co-located workshops on specific topics of

general interest to the autonomic computing community. Workshops are expected

to publish proceedings, and should cover areas that may not be properly

addressed in the main scientific program. ICAC-09 will also feature a

demonstration and exhibition session consisting of prototypes and technology

artifacts such as demonstrating autonomic software or autonomic computing

principles. Entries will be judged by a separate subcommittee led by the

demo/exhibit chair.

 

 

INDUSTRY SESSION

 

A singular value of ICAC is the confluence of top researchers and practitioners

from both academia and industry. ICAC-09 will provide a readout of various

technologies currently in play from product perspectives. Among the areas to be

addressed are core enablers for autonomic capabilities to be realized, such as

frameworks, protocols and autonomic engines in production systems. The industry

session also will address current areas of difficulty that present direct

opportunities for both academic and corporate research. Topics will be relevant

to entrepreneurs, product developers, architects, managers, marketers and end

users. Papers and posters reflecting such industry perspectives are especially

encouraged and can be submitted as described above.

 

 

STUDENT AWARDS

 

A student best paper award will be presented, consisting of a commemorative

plaque, complimentary student registration to the conference and an honorarium

that will partially cover travel & hotel costs. (A student paper is defined as

one in which the principal (not sole) author is a student.) The student will be

required to present the paper to receive the award.

[Mycolleagues] Call for Papers: 6th IEEE International Workshop onManagement of Ubiquitous Communications and Services (MUCS 2009)

We apologize if you receive multiple copies of this CFP.
 
=====================================================================
6th IEEE International Workshop on
Management of Ubiquitous Communications and Services (MUCS 2009) -
http://www.ubiquitous-management.org/mucs/index.php

Date and Venue: June 15, 2009 in Barcelona, Spain, as part
of 6th IEEE International Computing and Communications - ICAC 2009.

Submission: February 6th 2009
=====================================================================


Scope of the MUCS Workshop
---------------------------

Smart space applications, present significant management challenges for
successful delivery of highly adaptive services across heterogeneous
networks, mobile networks, ad-hoc networks, middleware, applications and
devices. Such challenges include: managing user centric services and
context services, extreme distribution and scalability, extensive  
system &
network & semantic heterogeneity, ad hoc formation and disassociation of
systems and services, intelligent support for user centric applications.

To address these issues, new and innovative management solutions need to
be realized. Such approaches need to support greater levels of autonomy
within the management of systems, services and networks. However such
new-style management needs to be informed by and operate within the  
scope
of business, operational and environmental constraints and policies. A  
key
element of greater acceptance and impact of pervasive management across
application domains will be the degree of user empowerment they offer,
balanced against the ever increasing need for greater management
automation.

Since 2003, the MUCS workshop (both independently and aligned with major
conferences) has provided a very successful forum for researchers and
practitioners to explore the theoretic, technological and organizational
challenges, and to present advances in management techniques and
technologies, for pervasive computing and smart space applications.

The workshop provides a single-track scientific programme containing a
blend of keynote presentations from leaders in research in this area,
peer-reviewed papers and a small selection of invited presentations.

[Mycolleagues] First CfP: QEST 2009 in Budapest

[ Apologies for multiple copies ]

Call for Papers
6th International Conference on Quantitative Evaluation of SysTems
QEST 2009

Technical University of Budapest, Department of Telecommunications
13th-16th September, 2009

*** co-located with the 6th International Conference on ***
*** FORmal Modelling and Analysis of Timed Systems ***


Deadlines:

Abstract submission by 16 March, 2009
Paper and tool submission by 23 March, 2009
Tutorial submission by 27 April, 2009
Author notification by 25 May, 2009
Camera ready version b 15 June, 2009


Scope and Topics:

The International Conference on Quantitative Evaluation of SysTems (QEST)
is the leading forum on evaluation and verification of computer systems and
networks, through stochastic models and measurements. QEST has a broad range
of interest - the common thread is that the evaluation be quantitative. The
range of performance metrics of interest spans classical measures involving
performance and reliability, as well as quantification of properties that
are classically qualitative, such as safety, correctness, and security.
QEST welcomes measurement-based studies as well as analytic studies. QEST
welcomes diversity in the model formalisms and methodologies employed, as
well as development of new formalisms and methodologies. QEST is keenly
interested in case studies that highlight the role of quantitative
evaluation
in the design of "systems", where the notion of system is broad. Systems of
interest include computer hardware and software architectures, communication
systems, embedded systems and biological systems. Moreover, tools for
supporting the practical application of research results in all of the
above areas are of special interest, and therefore tool papers are sought.
In short, QEST aims to create a sound methodological basis for assessing
and designing systems using quantitative means.


Evaluation of Papers:

All submitted papers will be thoroughly judged by at least three reviewers
on the basis of their originality, technical quality, scientific or
practical
contribution to the state of the art, methodology, clarity, and adequacy of
references.

QEST considers five types of papers with additional reviewing criteria
(in no particular order):

1. Theoretical: advance our understanding, apply to non-trivial problems and
be mathematically rigorous.

2. Methodological and technical: describe situations that require the
development and proposal of new analysis processes and techniques.
Process structure and the individual steps should be clearly described.
If the methodology has already been evaluated with applications, a
brief description of the lessons learned would be very helpful.

3. Application: describe a non-trivial application, and provide a comparison
with previous results, if previously analyzed.

4. Tools: should motivate the development of the new tools and the
formalisms they support. Tool papers need not discuss the theoretical
properties of the formalisms they are based on, nor details of the
algorithms used. Instead, they should focus on the architecture of the
software and discuss its practical capabilities with particular
reference
to the size and type of model it can handle within reasonable time and
space limits.

5. Tool demonstration: 2-page papers that describe a relevant tool, as well
as its features, evaluation, or any other information that may
demonstrate the merits of the tool.


Submissions:

We invite submissions of original papers related to the topics of the
conference. Submissions must be in English, IEEE double-column format,
and must indicate the above paper type. Electronic submission instructions
may be found at www.qest.org. Submitted papers should not exceed 10 pages
(2 for tool demonstrations). Additional material for the aid of the
reviewers (e.g., proofs) can be sent in a clearly marked appendix. Papers
must be unpublished and must not be submitted for publication elsewhere.
All accepted papers (including tool demonstrations) will appear in the
Conference Proceedings published by the IEEE Computer Society Press, and
must be presented at the conference by one of the authors. A best-paper
award will be presented at the conference. Selected papers will appear in
a special issue of a major journal. Submissions will be handled by the
EasyChair system (go to EasyChair/QEST2009).


Tool presentations:

Sessions will be arranged to present and demonstrate tools relevant to
any conference topic. Accepted tool descriptions will appear in the
conference proceedings.


Tutorials:

There will be one day of tutorials at the start of the conference.
Tutorial proposals (up to 4 pages) should be sent to the Tutorial Chair.

Associated Workshop of IFIP NETWORKING 2009
May 15th, 2009, Aachen, Germany

Scope

IP-based Next Generation Networks have gradually become reality,
creating numerous challenges for all stakeholders in the ICT sector.
While future business models and regulatory frameworks are still under
discussion, the provision of efficient charging support for the variety
of upcoming network technologies, including fixed networks, wireless
access networks, and mobile user support, has become of paramount
importance for realizing the economic potential of future convergent
architectures and services.

The resulting combination of technical and economic perspectives drives
many relevant research topics for application developers, business
architects, network and service providers, and customers. Especially the
identification of novel service charging solutions, the investigation
and evaluation of their technical feasibility, and the consolidation of
technical and economic mechanisms for enabling a fast, guaranteed, and
efficient charging of services is of fundamental importance for the
future evolution of the Internet and the telecommunications business in
general, and as such the central focus of the international ICQT

[Mycolleagues] Call for papers: First Workshop on Integrating Solid-state Memory Into the Storage Hierarchy (WISH 2009) - held with ASPLOS 2009

Dear colleague,

(Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this email).

*************************************************************

FIRST WORKSHOP ON INTEGRATING SOLID-STATE MEMORY INTO THE STORAGE
HIERARCHY (WISH 2009)

Co-located with ACM ASPLOS 2009
March 2009,
Washington, DC, USA

Web site: http://www.cse.psu.edu/~tak/wish2009.html

CALL FOR PAPERS

The goal of this workshop is to promote new ideas and research on
solid-state devices and systems. The emergence of solid-state storage
devices provides opportunities to address performance and power challenges
in computer systems. Hybrid storage systems might employ solid-state
memory in a variety of ways, such as capacity extensions to traditional
DRAM-based main memory, caches or buffers that retain data over longer
time scales, devices that complement or replace hard disk drives, or some
combination of these approaches. Utilizing solid-state technology
effectively requires close interaction between computer architects,
systems software designers, and application developers. The objective of
this first WISH workshop is to create a forum for such interaction. We
solicit papers that present new research results, describe works in
progress, or propose new directions of research. We also welcome position
papers from industry.

[Mycolleagues] The Second International Workshop on Specialized Ad Hoc Networks and Systems (SAHNS 2009) - In conjunction with ICDCS'09

******************************************************************************
 We apologize in advance if you receive multiple copies of this CFP.

 Please disseminate it to your colleagues that could be interested.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                      CALL FOR PAPERS

                         SAHNS 2009
            The Second International Workshop on
           Specialized Ad Hoc Networks and Systems
               Montreal, Canada, June 26, 2009
         http://www.cs.wmich.edu/~alfuqaha/SAHNS2009/

  In conjunction with the IEEE 29th International Conference
        on Distributed Computing Systems (ICDCS 2009)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. SCOPE

The Workshop provides a forum for engineers and scientists in
academia, industry and government to present their latest research
findings in specialized ad-hoc networks and systems.

As an alternative to one-size-fits-all general solutions in the area
of ad hoc networking and systems, we want to stimulate the
application-oriented divide-and-conquer approach to ad hoc network
and system research. The goal is to provide sound and efficient
specialized ad hoc networks and systems (SAHNS), suitable for
building solutions specific for well-defined classes of applications
or even individual applications.

We want to consider both specialized ad hoc networks and specialized
ad hoc systems. The latter can be built on top of specialized ad hoc
networks. Alternatively, they can be constructed independently of
specialized ad hoc networks, e.g., on top of general-purpose ad hoc
networks.

It should be emphasized that SAHNS is interested only in solutions
specific to specialized ad hoc networks and systems. The Workshop is
not interested in broad general-purpose solutions for all ad hoc
networks and systems, or in generic solutions for extremely broad
subclasses of ad hoc networks and systems. For example, the Workshop
is not interested in general-purpose solutions for all sensornets or
all P2P systems but is instead interested in specialized solutions
for their application-oriented subclasses.

One example of SAHNS targeted by this workshop are Incident Area
Networks (IANs), dedicated to single incidents or events. An IAN can
be pre-deployed for a planned event, such as a sporting or
"nationally significant" event, or can be dynamically deployed for
an  unplanned incident, such as a local law enforcement situation or
a natural disaster. Another example are opportunistic resource
utilization networks (e.g., oppnets), in which the network reacts to
a lack of resources by finding and incorporating "helpers" that have
needed resources or services.

Areas and topics of particular interest include, but are not limited
to:

a) Design issues for SAHNS:
   o Novel network and system architectures
   o Economically-based models and solutions
   o Operating systems and middleware
   o Customized network protocols (incl. cross-layer protocols)
   o Resource management solutions (incl. resource discovery)
   o  Algorithms and models for localization and mobility management
   o Privacy, security, and trust
   o Reliability and dependability
   o Novel hardware platforms

b) Development issues for SAHNS:
   o Development methodologies, models and tools
   o Analytical and validation models
   o Performance evaluation and modeling (incl. simulation tools)
    
c) Operation and management issues for SAHNS:
   o Topology control and management
   o Energy control and management
   o Resource and service discovery and control
   o QoS provisioning and management
   o Data management, data aggregation, data dissemination, and
     query processing
   o Assuring survivability and reliability
   o Controls for privacy, security, and trust management

d) Application issues for SAHNS:
   o Best current and future applications for SAHNS
   o Experience with SAHNS deployments and products
   o Social and business impacts of SAHNS-based applications


2. PAPER SUBMISSION

[IWCMC 2009 Cross-Layer Optimized Wireless Networks Symposium] CFP IWCMC 2009 Cross-Layer Optimized Wireless Networks Symposium

(APOLOGIES IF YOU RECEIVE MULTIPLE COPIES OF THIS CALL)

Cross-Layer Optimized Wireless Networks Symposium

IEEE/ACM* International Conference on Wireless Communications and Mobile
Computing, 21-24 June, 2009, Leipzig, Germany, http://iwcmc.com/.

*technical sponsorship pending

Symposium Background

The explosive increasing in wireless packet-data applications, such as
wireless web browsing, real-time mobile multimedia streaming, and interactive applications motivates the rapid development of the next-generation mobile wireless networks. The associated communication channels and traffic patterns in mobile wireless networks are more unpredictable than the traditional wire-line networks. On the other hand, the future multimedia applications impose stringent and diverse Quality of Service (QoS) requirements, which cannot be satisfactorily addressed through the traditional layering network-protocol architecture. Correspondingly, a cross-layer design paradigm
would be needed to achieve transmission protocol stack performance while
meeting these new challenges in QoS requirements. The cross-layer designs and protocols tend to be very essential approaches for the mobile wireless and ad hoc networks where unpredictable variables such as node mobility, node density, network dimensions make the diverse and stringent wireless QoS requirements even harder to satisfy. Cross-layer designs and protocols are the emerging research areas where some early results have recently been reported in the literatures, but the upcoming new applications and more stringent/diverse wireless QoS requirements open even more new opportunities for many interesting and comprehensive research topics targeting at concepts, methodologies, and techniques to support the future advanced mobile wireless applications. Clearly, the developments of the new schemes, mechanisms, and systems associated with the cross-layer designs and protocols will have a significant impact on the next generation of mobile wireless communications and networks.

Scope of Contributions

The focuses of the papers to be published in the Cross-Layer Optimized
Wireless Networks Symposium of IWCMC 2009 will concentrate on
state-of-the-art research in various aspects of cross-layer designs and
protocols for next-generation mobile wireless communications networks. We solicit the original papers covering various topics of interest that include, but are not limited to:

* Methodologies for cross-layer protocol design in mobile wireless networks
* Cross-layer error and delay control
* Cross-Layer optimization for energy, network lifetime, and capacity
* Complexity and scalability issues in cross-layer design
* Physical layer information for medium access control and radio link control
* Signaling for cross-layer protocol interaction
* QoS and radio resource management in layered networks
* Channel access algorithms for cross-layered wireless communication networks
* Performance optimization for cross-layer design of wireless network
* Cross-Layer optimized routing wireless networks
* Software defined radio and dynamic wireless networks
* Architectures issues for cross-layer protocol design in mobile wireless
networks
* Cross-Layer design issues for quality of service provisioning in wireless
networks
* Signal processing for cross-layer design
* Cross-layer strategies in wireless sensor and actuator networks
* Interactions between routing/mobility management and congestion control
* Application layer adaptation based on cross-layer notifications
* Design, implementation and test-bed/experimental results
* Overview/survey of the special undergoing/planned projects
* Standardization issues and status reports from various standards
organizations

[Mycolleagues] CFP: Multimedia Tools and Applications (Springer), Special Issue on Data Semantics for Multimedia Systems

We apologize if you received multiple copies of this Call for Papers   

**************************************************************************************************************

CALL FOR PAPERS

Multimedia Tools and Applications (Springer)
Special Issue on Data Semantics for Multimedia Systems
Manuscript due: December 15, 2008

http://www.springer.com/computer/information+systems/journal/11042 (the second one in the listing)
http://www.springer.com/cda/content/document/cda_downloaddocument/CFP_11042_20080814.pdf?SGWID=0-0-45-600098-p35538244

In the last decade, substantial progress has been made in content-based analysis and multimedia streaming to facilitate the development of large-scale multimedia information systems. Together with the recent progress on semantic web, it is now possible to build a new generation of multimedia applications that enable large-scale semantic representation, analysis, and delivery of multimedia data from heterogeneous data sources.  However, there is still a long way to go for mature solutions of multimedia database systems that are capable of processing semantics-rich, large-volume multimedia data. It could be even more challenging if such systems are under stringent functional and non-functional (e.g., QoS) requirements.

The goal of this special issue is to bring the semantic web community and multimedia processing & computing community together and provide a forum for multidisciplinary research opportunities, with a focus on how to apply the semantic technologies to the acquisition, generation, transmission, storage, processing, and retrieval of multimedia information. Discussions on future challenges in multimedia information manipulation, as well as practical solutions for the design and implementation of multimedia database software systems are also encouraged.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to practical areas that span both semantic technologies and multimedia processing & computing:
•    Automatic generation of multimedia presentations
•    Semantic multimedia metadata extraction
•    Annotation tools and methods for multimedia semantics
•    Media ontology generation/learning/reasoning
•    Content-based multimedia analysis
•    Multimedia indexing, searching, and retrieving
•    Multimedia streaming
•    Semantic-based QoS control and scheduling
•    Semantic-based Internet data streaming and delivery
•    Multimedia standards (e.g., MPEG-7 and XMP) and Semantic Web
•    Semantics  enabled  multimedia  applications  (including  annotation,  browsing, storage, retrieval, and visualization)
•    Semantics  enabled  networking  and  middleware  for  multimedia applications


Submission Details

Papers must be original and not submitted to or accepted by any other conference or journal.

The Sixth International Symposium on Neural Networks (ISNN 2009) will be held in Wuhan, following the successes of previous events. Composed of three parts (Wuchang, Hankou, and Hanyang), Wuhan is the capital of Hubei Province in central China with a long history and rich heritages. During the warrior-states period (481-221 BC), Wuhan is a part in Chu Kingdom It began to prosper as a commercial town about two-thousand years ago, when it was called Yingwuzhou (Parrot beach). During the Song Dynasty (960-1279 AD), the region became one of the most prosperous commercial centers along the Yangtze River. By the end of the Ming Dynasty (1368-164 AD), Hankou was one of the four most famous cities in China. Today, Wuhan is an educational and industrial center and a hub of water and rail transportation in China.

 

ISNN 2009 aims to provide a high-level international forum for scientists, engineers, and educators to present the state of the art of neural network research and applications in related fields. The symposium will feature plenary speeches given by world renowned scholars, regular sessions with broad coverage, and special sessions focusing on popular topics.

***************************************************************************************************
Recently, wireless mesh networking is attracting significant interest from academia,
industry, and standard organizations. With several favorable characteristics, such
as dynamic self-organization, self-configuration, self-healing, easy maintenance,
high scalability and reliable services, wireless mesh networks have been advocated
as a cost-effective approach to support high-speed last mile connectivity and
ubiquitous broadband access in the context of home networking, enterprise networking,
or community networking. Despite recent advances, and the technical accumulations
from more than a decade's research effort in mobile ad hoc networks, many research
issues remain in all protocol layers of wireless mesh networks. For example, the
introducing of mixed (infrastructure and ad hoc) architecture, multi-radio,
multi-channel, and multi-antenna, have brought new challenges in the design of
physical, MAC, and routing protocols. New application scenarios, such as all-wireless
office, are urging researchers to address enhanced QoS support and various security
issues in the design of different protocol layers for wireless mesh networks.

This workshop aims to bring together the technologies and researchers who share
interest in the area of wireless mesh and ad hoc networks. The main purpose is to
promote discussions of research and relevant activities in the design of architectures,
protocols, algorithms, services, and applications for wireless networks. It also aims
at increasing the synergy between academic and industry professionals working in this
area. We plan to seek papers that address theoretical, experimental, and work in-progress
at the all layers of wireless mesh and ad hoc networks, from application layer to the
physical layer.

Topics covered by the workshop will include, but are not limited to, the following:

- Multi-radio and multi-channel wireless mesh networking
- Multi-hop wireless communications and ad hoc networking
- MAC protocols (IEEE 802.11, 802.15, 802.16, 802.20, and beyond)
- Routing, scheduling, and channel assignment protocols
- Quality of Services provisioning
- Multimedia communications over mesh and ad hoc networks
- Network deployment, localization, and synchronization
- Topology construction and maintenance
- Modeling and performance evaluations
- Cross layer optimizations
- Power-aware and energy-efficient protocols and algorithms
- Intelligent system techniques for mesh and ad hoc networks
- Testbed, prototype, and practical systems
- Novel applications of mesh and ad hoc networks
- Vehicular mesh and ad hoc networks
- Wireless sensor networks
- Self-adaptive and self-organizing wireless networking systems

CALL FOR PAPERS

The next generation satellite services will cater the demands of personal services by bringing the satellite terminals directly to the hands of the user hence providing satellite personal services directly to the user. Technological advances in satellite communications have made it possible to bring such value added satellite services directly to the user by reducing the overall cost as well as addressing many technological challenges such as achieving mobility, having miniaturized antennas and terminal sizes, and providing high data rate links. With the unique broadcast nature and ubiquitous coverage of satellite networks, the synergy between satellite
and terrestrial networks provides immense opportunities for disseminating wideband multimedia services to a wide range of audiences over large numbers of geographically dispersed people. It is evident that the satellite will play a complementary, but essential, role in delivering multimedia and telecommunication services to infrastructure-less region where the terrestrial high-bandwidth communication infrastructures are practically unreachable. In such a context we introduce a new
category claimed to be defined as Personal Satellite Services (PSATS) by means of extending the satellite services directly to the user for personal services such as communications, multimedia and location identification. Such opportunities are also currently fueling accelerated research in PSATS enabled systems which we cover in this conference. The services enabled by PSATS not only cover the requirements of an ordinary citizen but also provide defense personal services such as tracking, visualization and virtualization in a highly secure communication environment.

The conference will explore such techniques, and aims to serve as a premier
international forum for discussions, bringing together academic and industrial researchers, practitioners, and students interested in future techniques relating to the satellite communications, networking, technology, systems, and applications.

ICST - ROBOCOMM 2009 - Call for Papers - Deadline Extension

(Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this Call)

=============================================================

ROBOCOMM 2009 - Call for Papers - Deadline Extension

31 March -- 2 April 2009, Odense, Denmark

http://www.robocomm.org

Sponsored by ICST

===============================================================

Extended paper submission deadline: 23rd November 2009

===============================================================

Dear colleague

We invite you to submit a paper or a proposal for a half-day or full-day tutorial and workshop to the Second International Conference on Robot Communication and Coordination RoboComm 2009, to be held in Odense Denmark on 31 March--2 April 2009.

Scope


The Second International Conference on Robot Communication and Coordination targets the convergence of robotics and communications, acting as a common forum for the two communities. The event will promote cross-pollination of these two areas, adding to our understanding of the interaction between these two exciting computer science research areas.

Robotics is an interdisciplinary field, having benefited greatly from interactions with mechanics, control theory, and electronics. Lately, with the unprecedented growth of wireless communication technologies, the growing attention devoted to sensor networks and ad-hoc networks, and the emergence of commodity robotics platforms, networked robotics represents an exciting new research direction.

Networked robotics offers a framework for coordination of complex mobile systems, thus providing the natural common ground for convergence of information processing, communication theory and control theory. It poses significant challenges, requiring the integration of communication theory, software engineering, distributed sensing and control into a common framework. Furthermore, robots are unique in that their motion and tasking control systems are co-located with the communications mechanisms. This allows the co-exploitation of individual subsystems to provide completely new kinds of networked or distributed autonomy.

Thematic Areas

ROBOCOMM is a leading-edge conference where prominent researchers with different backgrounds can exchange ideas for a common framework that will enable new applications based on large scale networks of mobile or modular robots. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Robotic interactions with sensors
* Communication protocols for tele-operatated and tele-reflexive robots
* Intra-sensor communications within individual robots
* Communication protocols for flocks and swarms of networked robots
* Distributed coordination of modular robots or mobile robots
* Situated and embodied communication
* Biologically inspired or biomimetic robot communication
* Exploiting the interactions betweeen communications and autonomy
* Localization and tracking using robotic communications
* Industrial applications of networked robotics
* Real-time software for mobile robots or modular robots
* Wired networking for robots
* Advanced communication systems for single tele-operated robots

ROBOCOMM will encompass the above mentioned aspects and will encourage the largest possible involvement of industrial partners who are involved in networked robotics and controls. This will provide a dialog between the academic and the industrial communities that will promote the growth of networked robotics.

Submission Instructions:

Please visit www.robocomm.org for instructions of how to submit your paper/proposal.

[MCN'08] JSAC CFP: Special Issue on Mission Critical Networking

Our apology if you receive multiple posts of this announcement.
==============================================
JSAC CALL FOR PAPERS

Special Issue on Mission Critical Networking

Mission-Critical Networking (MCN) refers to networking for
application domains where life or livelihood may be at risk. Typical
application domains for MCN include critical infrastructure
protection and operation, emergency and crisis intervention,
healthcare services, and military operations. Such networking is
essential for safety, security and economic vitality in our complex
world characterized by uncertainty, heterogeneity, emergent
behaviors, and the need for reliable and timely response. MCN should
comprise networking technology, infrastructures and services that
may alleviate the risk and directly enable and enhance connectivity
for mission-critical information exchange among diverse,
widely-dispersed, mobile users. A primary challenge to MCN is to
deploy and dynamically configure and evolve communication networks
that are dependable, autonomic, secure, adaptive, and rapidly
deployable to support critical missions and their priorities. In
order to operate effectively, the deployed networks should support
services such as location determination of both authorized and
unauthorized entities, quality-of-service aware audio and video
communication, emergency calling and alerting, and in-situ and
remote sensing and control in a secure and dependable manner. In
addition, efficient operation of such networks that typically
include numerous resource-constrained components may benefit from
cross-layer optimization, cognition, resource engineering, on-demand
federation, and service-oriented architecture. Also important is the
integration of MCN with the Internet to reduce cost of deployment
and maintenance and to enhance reachability and ubiquity. This
special issue of the Journal on Selected Areas in Communications
solicits high quality technical contributions in mission-critical
networking including, but not limited to:

- Architecture and design of MCN and next-generation emergency calling
and alerting
- Rapidly and dynamically deployable services and networks
- Evolving "elastic" networking with decentralized and peer-to-peer
resource management and allocation
- Federation and policy management for heterogeneous networks and
protocols
- Trust, security, dependability, privacy, QoS and performance
awareness and management for MCN
- Sensor and actuator networks for critical information gathering,
tracking and real-time control
- MCN traffic and mobility analysis
- Formal methodology for cognitive, autonomic, and context-aware
protocols and network management
- Spectrum management and access
- Testbeds, benchmarks, performance and experimental studies


** Paper Submission

Manuscripts should describe original, previously unpublished work,
not currently under review. Argument justifying contribution specific
to the unique features of MCN must be provided. Prospective authors
should follow the IEEE JSAC manuscript format described in the
Information for Authors at:

Sponsored by ICST

http://www.onit-ws.org http://www.tridentcom.org

-----------------------------------------------------------------------


Telecommunications research has changed in recent years due to network convergence in Next Generation Networks (NGN) and the influence of internet technologies. Time to market and innovation speed of network technologies
have increased and are heavily influenced by the focus on services and service delivery platforms. Additionally, the change of the value chain towards applications and content is driven by emerging internet technology.

The increasing competition in international research and development requires an early evaluation of ideas, concepts and principles in terms of prototyping and testing. In contrast to closed vendor testbeds, open IP
Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) and NGN testbeds can efficiently realize prototype scenarios and professional test setups with reasonable effort, time and cost. They are seen as catalysts for development in industry and academia as well as for their important role in ensuring solid open standards interfaces between components. The IMS plays a central role as common service signalling middleware in face of multiple access networks and their convergence. In this context, we can witness an increasing number of testbeds promoting an open IMS infrastructure to implement new seamless multimedia applications.

The Open NGN and IMS Testbeds Workshop 2009 (ONIT 2009) will give insight into the state of the art concerning open NGN and IMS testbeds at an international scale. The objective is to evaluate the quality and impact of such testbeds in order to improve current offerings and position them for future challenges. Especially, the role of open source software such as open source IMS implementations for testbeds shall be discussed in depth and how such infrastructures can be provided as outsourced services in line with Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) concepts.

Areas of interest for scientific papers include but are not limited to:

- Open Source software as a driver for cost efficient testbeds
- Open Source IMS Core development
- Application development based on open testbeds
- Experimental results using reference Open Source IMS components
- Tools and tests for open NGN and IMS testbeds
- Advances in NGN, IMS and SOA testbeds
- Virtualization for testbeds
- IaaS concepts for testbeds and testing outsourcing
- SOA principles applied to testbeds
- Testbed management
- Operational aspects
- Deployment and governance issues in testbeds
- Resource description and data models for testbeds
- Semantic description techniques and ontologies in the testbed domain
- Experiences and advantages of vendor-specific and closed testbeds
environments

Important Dates:
Papers due (to be received by): December 1, 2008
Notification of acceptance: January 15, 2009
Submission of camera-ready papers: February 15, 2009

802.11x, etc.)
* Disruptive network paradigms (bio-inspired, autonomic, opportunistic
networking, etc.)
* Multi-layer network architectures
* Cross-layer simulation
* End-to-end simulation of heterogeneous, mobile, multi-domain networks
* Fluid-flow simulation for assessing QoS in large scale networks
* New and emerging services and applications
* QoS and service chain negotiation, and Service Level Agreements
* QoS components (scheduling algorithms, admission control schemes,
QoS routing and traffic engineering schemes, etc.)
* Scalability analysis
* Traffic modeling

==================================================================

The DASFAA PhD workshop aims to bring together PhD students working on topics

related to the DASFAA conference series. The workshop will offer PhD students

the opportunity to present, discuss, and receive feedback on their research

in a constructive and international atmosphere.

We encourage PhD students to submit short papers describing their doctorial

work to this workshop. The paper should clearly formulate the research problem,

detail the current solutions to this problem, explain why the existing work is

not sufficient and the proposed work is significant in the field of research,

and give some indication of new solutions the student is proposing. The work

does not need to be complete, and PhD students at all stages are welcome.

The submission is expected to be significantly different from any other

submissions by the authors. The first author of the submission must be a student,

and the expected duration of the PhD thesis and the current stage of the work have

to be indicated in the submission.

The first author of an accepted paper is expected to attend the workshop, present

the paper and lead the discussion
