[Om-announce] CICM 2015 - Call for Work-in-Progress Papers

   Call for Work-in-Progress Papers

Conference on Intelligent Computer Mathematics
  CICM 2015

   13-17 July 2015
  Washington DC, USA


Digital and  computational solutions are becoming  the prevalent means
for the generation, communication, processing, storage and curation of
mathematical  information.  Separate  communities  have  developed  to
investigate  and build  computer based  systems for  computer algebra,
automated deduction, and mathematical publishing as well as novel user
interfaces. While all of these systems excel in their own right, their
integration  can   lead  to   synergies  offering   significant  added
value.  The  Conference  on Intelligent  Computer  Mathematics  (CICM)
offers a  venue for discussing  and developing solutions to  the great
challenges posed by the integration of these diverse areas.

CICM has been held annually as a joint meeting since 2008, co-locating
related   conferences  and   workshops  to   advance  work   in  these
subjects. Previous  meetings have been  held in Birmingham  (UK 2008),
Grand Bend (Canada 2009), Paris (France 2010), Bertinoro (Italy 2011),
Bremen (Germany 2012), Bath (UK 2013), and Coimbra (Portugal 2014).

This is a (short version of  the) call for Work-in-Progress papers for
CICM 2015,  which will be held  in Washington, D.C., 13-17  July 2015.
We  solicit  for  papers  which  describe  work  in  progress,  recent
developments, and other work of interest to our communities which does
not yet have the maturity for archival proceedings.

The full version of the CFP  is available from the conference web page
at http://cicm-conference.org/2015/cicm.php

The widespread of the internet has given further opportunities for
providing new services and web-based applications. However, such
applications are often accompanied by a high complexity, and the
number of standards, to which an application must follow, is rapidly
increasing. Representing related problems as optimization problems
will often not find an exact analytical solution anymore, and the
need for advanced heuristic techniques becomes prevalent. Heuristic
techniques provide a wealth of methods to handle tasks in complex
application domains. Among such techniques we can find evolutionary
computation, tabu search, simulated annealing, as well as many
probabilistic, hybrid and ensemble approaches.
This workshop will focus on soft computing methods to tangent the
needs of modern internet-based applications and their underlying
networking layer. It is supposed to bring together researchers from
different communities with the similar need, and to provide a base
for scientific exchange of research ideas.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Network design
- Handling networking problems by graph theory
- QoS/QoE solutions
- Modeling of network-based services
- Scaling of network
- Human-machine interface
- Digital convergence
- User modeling
- Network bottleneck identification
- Efficient content delivery schemes
- Service authentication and authorization schemes
- Service scheduling
- Network security
- Service and content retrieval and ranking
- Debugging of internet-based applications


PAPER SUBMISSION
Papers are to be submitted electronically on the EDAS web site of
the conference in PDF format.

Submissions should be original and limited to 5 double-column pages,
and should follow IEEE paper templates. Paper with more pages can be
accepted however they need to be reduced to 5 pages for publication.

Accepted and presented papers will be published in the conference
proceedings and submitted to IEEE Xplore as well as other
Abstracting and Indexing (AI) databases.

Overview: WSN workshop will be a one day workshop that will be held
in conjunction with the IFIP New Technologies  Mobility (NTMS) 2015
Conference in Paris, France. Papers published in the WSN workshop
will appear in the proceedings of NTMS 2015 conference. Accepted and
presented papers will be published in the conference proceedings and
submitted to IEEE Xplore as well as other Abstracting and Indexing
(AI) databases.

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) continue to attract a lot of
attention from the academia and industry among researchers,
industrials, equipment and chip manufacturers and service providers
for promoting large-scale deployments in many applications, such as
environmental monitoring, military and medical surveillance, health
 wellness applications, intelligent traffic management and user's
tracking and identification, including human computer interaction.
With the advancement in wearable devices industry, the increasing
potential of smart homes and environments and the continuous
requirement for personalization and context-aware applications, WSNs
enter a new technological era and contribute to several new sensing
products and applications (e.g. body sensors for medical
surveillance, wireless visual sensors for environmental monitoring,
WSNs in smart roads for intelligent traffic management and roads
safety, wireless sensors in wearable devices, speed and motion
sensors in personal devices, light and noise sensors in smart phones
and tablets). In parallel, new architectures spanning the
interactions between cloud services, smart devices and distributed
sensors are evolving, which enable new business models and
deployments of sensors to enhance user benefit.

While continuous improvements are addressing specific WSN issues
spanning hardware, new devices, network protocols, WSNs deployment
architectures, operating systems, and applications, several research
areas are still emerging from new needs and challenges. To address
these issues, the NTMS'2014 Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) workshop
invites unpublished, high-quality contributions that focus on the
applications, use-cases, architectures, deployments, and recent
advances of Wireless Sensor Networks. The workshop is an opportunity
for researchers and industrials to share their ideas, experiences,
and expectations on the future of WSNs. The workshop seeks original
contributions that address the following topics, but not limited to:

- WSNs new applications and use-cases including (wearable
technologies, visual sensing technologies, smart homes and
environments, smart roads and context-aware applications)
- New architectures for WSNs
- WSNs hardware and new devices
- Low-power wireless technologies
- WSNs new protocols
- Routing and data transfer in WSNs
- Multicast communication in WSNs
- Security management in WSNs
- Power consumption optimization in WSNs
- Prototypes for new applications for WSNs
- Platforms and developments tools for WSNs
- Programming models for sensors
- Languages and operating systems of Sensors
- Multi-purpose WSNs
- WSNs trends on data gathering, processing, and communication
- Distributed smart cameras/smart camera networks
