CALL FOR PAPERS The Second International Workshop on Computing and Networking for Internet of Things (CoMNet-IoT 2013)
Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai, January 3-6, 2013 http://www.comnet-iot.org in conjunction with ICDCN 2013 Internet of Things (IoT) has been considered as an innovative and imminent information infrastructure enabling to ubiquitously network various machines, physical devices, and objects, denoted as things, for environment sensing, information sharing and collaboration in intelligent and autonomous manner. IoT poses a number of new challenges and opportunities for computing, networking, data management and analytics due to the large scale and complexity of such systems, and heterogeneity of the things and networks, constrained by limited resources of the things and the network. Encouraged by the great success of ComNet-IoT 2012 in conjunction with ICDCN 2012, the goal of CoMNet-IoT 2013 is to provide a platform to exchange ideas, present results, share experience, stimulate new research, and foster collaborations among researchers, professionals, and application developers on the various aspects of computing, networking, information and distributed systems technologies for IoT, including back-end infrastructure such as the Cloud. Topics of interests include but are not limited to the following issues related to IoT: - System and network architectures, e.g., service oriented architecture (SOA) - Middleware for heterogeneous sensors, devices and protocols - Quality of service (QoS) provisioning - Localization and tracking - RFID and RFID based track and trace - Wireless networking protocols, e.g., RFID collision avoidance, MAC, routing, etc. - Energy harvesting and energy management - Data management and analytics: data-stream, sharing, mining, semantic interoperability, etc. - Back-end (cloud based) infrastructure - Security issues: Data confidentiality, integrity, network resilience, etc. - Novel application developments and case studies, e.g., smart grid, green building, healthcare, intelligent transportation/city, analytics driven decision support systems, etc. - Test-beds and field trials Paper Submissions The workshop papers will be published in ACM Digital Library. Submitted papers must be in ACM Proceedings format and should not exceed 6 pages including title, abstract, figures and references. The paper should not be previously published or currently under review elsewhere. All submissions will be peer-reviewed and selected based on their originality, merit, and relevance to the workshop. Selected papers with high quality will be invited to submit an extended version to a Journal special issue. Important Dates Paper Submission: October 20, 2012 (Extended) Paper Acceptance: November 10, 2012 Camera-Ready Due: December 1, 2012 Workshop: January 3-6, 2013 General Chair: Sajal K. Das, The University of Texas at Arlington, USA Program Co-Chairs: Wendong Xiao, University of Science and Technology Beijing, China Anwitaman Datta, Professor, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore _______________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.
