CFP: FSMD2013 - IEEE MDM2013 Workshop on Field Speech and Mobile Data
by Koji Zettsu 27 Dec '12

27 Dec '12

日本データベース学会の皆様 NICTの是津です。 2013年6月にミラノで開催されますIEEE MDM2013 Workshop on Field Speech and Mobile Data (FSMD2013)のCFPをお送りさせて頂きます。モバイル端末における音声インタフェースやCyber-Physical技術をテーマとしたワークショップです。論文投稿締切は2013年1月31日です。皆様からのご投稿をお待ちしております。 **************************************************************************** ***** Call for Papers Workshop on Field Speech and Mobile Data (FSMD 2013) http://www2.nict.go.jp/univ-com/isp/fsmd2013/index.html in conjunction with The 14th International Conference on Mobile Data Management Milan, Italy, June 3-6, 2013 Date of Workshop: June 3, 2013 **************************************************************************** ***** Workshop General Co-Chairs: Yutaka Kidawara, NICT, Japan Sung Hyon Myaeng, KAIST, Korea Scope and Theme: Advances of speech recognition technologies for mobile devices like smart phones has made "speech data" an integral part of mobile data management. More and more attentions from both academics and industries are paid to voice user interfaces (VUI), multilingual translation, audio-video transcription, and even speech-to-blogging for mobile devices. Hereafter, management of real-world "field" speech data will be crucial for searching, analyzing, sharing, and delivering them in mobile service networks. With special emphasis on management of real-world "field" speech data, a new ICT platform integrating speech communication and cyber-physical systems will be introduced. On this platform, we can expect novel applications harnessing mobile speech data management, such as knowledge discovery form speech log data, situation awareness in real-world human communication, hands-free interaction using head-mounted display with speech input augmented by linguistic and sensory data. In this workshop we aim to provide a venue for academic and industrial discussions on "cross-cutting" technologies and open problems on speech data management and their applications for mobile devices. The list of topics includes but is not limited to: * Field speech data processing * Speech recognition for mobile devices * Speech-to-speech translation * Spoken dialog systems * Voice user interfaces * Speech data mining * Spoken document retrieval * Cyber-physical systems * Internet of Things * Security and privacy for mobile speech data management * Spatio-temporal databases * Audio and video transcriptions for mobile multimedia * Multimodal processing * Data engineering and information management * Social networks * Smart-X services * Service computing & Cloud computing with speech data Important Dates: Submission deadline: January 31, 2013 Notification of acceptance: March 6, 2013 Final manuscript due: March 13, 2013 Workshop date: June 3, 2013 Submission Guidelines: FSMD 2013 adopts the standard peer review procedure, hence submissions should not be anonymized. Our paper submission website will be open for papers (up to 10 pages, following the same guidelines as the IEEE MDM 2013 full papers) until January 31, 2013, 11:59 pm PST. In addition to the full-length papers, the Program Committee may accept some as short papers which will be requested to be shortened. Submission instructions will be available at our website: http://www2.nict.go.jp/univ-com/isp/fsmd2013/submission.html Contact: For questions, please contact the FSMD2013 organizing committee at the following e-mail address: fsmd2013-contact(a)khn.nict.go.jp ------------------------------ 是津耕司　（Koji Zettsu) 独立行政法人情報通信研究機構ユニバーサルコミュニケーション研究所 E-mail: <mailto:zettsu@nict.go.jp> zettsu(a)nict.go.jp

CFP: ComCom Special Issue on Opportunistic Networking
by Valerio Arnaboldi 25 Dec '12

25 Dec '12

*** Our Sincere Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message *** -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS Elsevier - Computer Communications Journal Special Issue on Opportunistic Networking Submission Deadline: February 10, 2013 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The widespread availability of mobile portable devices enriched with a variety of sensing capabilities, coupled with the impelling need of communication anytime and anywhere, has rapidly raised the interest towards new approaches to communications between users. Opportunistic networks are an instance of the delay tolerant paradigm applied to networks made up of users' portable devices (such as smartphones and tablets). As such, they are able to cope with challenged network conditions that are often present in real life, such as high node mobility, variable connectivity, and disconnections, which would impair communications in traditional Mobile Ad Hoc Networks. In this scenario, user mobility becomes one of the main drivers to enable message delivery. In fact, according to the store-carry-and-forward paradigm, user devices store messages and carry them around while they move in the network, exchanging them upon encounter with other nodes, and eventually delivering them to their destination or to interested users. This new communication paradigm enables legacy applications in challenged scenarios, as well as it paves the way to innovative solutions. While opportunistic networks initially received attention to support communication where an infrastructure is not available (for disaster recovery or in rural areas), nowadays a number of applications can be envisaged ranging from content sharing, through mobile social networking, to participatory and urban sensing. All these applications rely on data forwarding amongst devices. As a consequence, two aspects become relevant, that is, the need for mechanisms guaranteeing trusted and secure communications while preserving users' privacy (in the absence of infrastructure and sometimes even end-to-end connectivity), and incentive mechanisms able to boost the participation in the network. This Special Issue of Computer Communications seeks contributions pushing the state of the art in Opportunistic Networking. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) the following: - Mobility measurements and models, mobility trace analysis - Measurements, models, and analysis for user behaviors on mobile devices - Unicast and multicast routing - Transport, congestion control, and reliability issues - Content dissemination, content caching, service composition, opportunistic computing - Trust, security & privacy in opportunistic forwarding, incentive mechanisms, reputation systems, and key management - Application support and middleware for opportunistic networks - New applications and services relying on opportunistic networking - Systems and experience for real-world deployments Schedule -------- Submission deadline: February 10, 2013 Author notification: May 24, 2013 Revised paper due: June 30, 2013 Final author notification: September 16, 2013 Publication: TBD Guest Editors ------------- Chiara Boldrini, IIT-CNR, Italy Kyunghan Lee, Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST), Korea Melek Onen, EURECOM, France Joerg Ott, Aalto University, Finland Elena Pagani, Universita' degli Studi di Milano, Italy Instructions for submission --------------------------- Manuscripts must not have been previously published nor currently under review by other journals or conferences. If the paper was published in a conference, the submitted manuscript should be a substantial extension of the conference paper. In this case, authors are also required to submit their published conference articles and a summary document explaining the enhancements made in the journal version. Papers must be submitted through the Computer Communications website at http://ees.elsevier.com/comcom, where guidelines for manuscript preparation can also be found. To ensure that all manuscripts are correctly identified for consideration by the Special Issue, the authors should select "Special Issue: Opp-Net" when they reach the "Article Type" step in the submission process. For further information, please contact the guest editors at comcomsi_oppnet(a)iit.cnr.it
