Call for Participation

The 8th Workshop on Theory of Randomized Search Heuristic (ThRaSH 2014)
4-5 April 2014, Jena, Germany

http://www.theinf.uni-jena.de/thrash
contact: timo.koetzing@uni-jena.de

Deadline for abstract submission: 2 March, 2014
Notification about accepted talks: 5 March, 2014
Deadline for registration: 16 March, 2014

Abstract submission and registration (no fee) by e-mail to
timo.koetzing@uni-jena.de

Theory of randomized search heuristics continues to be a lively,
exciting, and important field of research. The ThRaSH workshop series
provides a forum to discuss new trends and ideas. It aims at
stimulating interactions within the research field and between people
from different disciplines. The eighth workshop of the series will
take place in Jena, Germany on the 4th and 5th of April, 2013; details
about the venue as well as all other information pertaining to the
workshop can be found on the workshop homepage
http://www.theinf.uni-jena.de/thrash.

The main topics of ThRaSH are the theory of continuous and discrete
optimization by evolutionary computation. In addition to this, this
year's ThRaSH also opens to population genetics, a branch of
theoretical biology. In the past decade, evolutionary computation and
population genetics have studied very similar concepts independently
and with orthogonal approaches. We want to bring together researchers
working in both biological and artificial evolution, inform about each
others work and give directions for future research.

We invite researchers working on theoretical aspects of randomized
search heuristics and/or population genetics who would like to present
and discuss their work to submit a short abstract (a single page,
either in plain text or pdf). As always at ThRaSH, the primary focus
is on discussing recent ideas and detecting challenging topics for
future work, rather than on the presentation of final results.

Registration for the workshop is free. However, we ask participants to
register by the registration deadline. Please indicate with your
registration if your are a vegetarian to allow for appropriate lunch
and dinner options.

CALL FOR PAPERS
Eighth IEEE WoWMoM Workshop on
Autonomic and Opportunistic Communications (AOC 2014)
June 16, 2014 - Sydney, Australia
http://aoc2014.conference.nicta.com.au
Fast Track on Computer Communication Journal
http://www.elsevier.com/locate/comcom
**** Submission Deadline --- March 7, 2014 ****
---------------------------------------------------------------------

The recent proliferation of sensor-rich portable devices is enabling
novel communication paradigms for users and contributing to the
implementation of the ubiquitous computing and networking vision.
Opportunistic networking represents a key communication paradigm for
this vision. Either as a standalone communication mode or as a
complement to infrastructure-based communication, opportunistic
networking leverages the mobility of end users to enhance their ability
to communicate in the absence of reliable end-to-end connectivity.
Opportunistic networking opens up many possibilities but also poses
countless new challenges. The goal of the AOC 2014 workshop is to serve
as a forum for researchers, professionals, application developers, and
other experts from both academia and industry to exchange new ideas,
discuss new solutions, and share their experiences. As with previous
editions, this year's workshop is particularly interested in novel
research directions, such as service composition techniques,
co-existence with infrastructure networks, and insights from game
theory, social networking analysis, and cognitive psychology. The
workshop will solicit original papers addressing theoretical and
practical aspects of autonomic and opportunistic communications as well
as papers describing prototype implementations and deployments.

Topics of interest for AOC 2014 include, but are not limited to:
* Routing, transport, and reliability issues
* Techniques for data dissemination and replication
* Applications and middleware support, mobile social networking
applications
* Mobility models and statistical analysis of mobility traces
* Context and social awareness mechanisms and algorithms
* Co-existence of opportunistic networks with infrastructure mobile
wireless networks
* Service composition in autonomic and opportunistic networks
* Cognition-driven information processing and decision making
* Performance modelling, scaling laws, and fundamental limits for
autonomic and opportunistic communications
* Game-theoretical insights to the operation of autonomic and
opportunistic networks
* Participatory and urban sensing in autonomic and opportunistic
networks
* Trust, security, and reputation
* Autonomic and opportunistic communication testbeds and prototypes,
measurement data from real experiments
* Socio-economic models for autonomic and opportunistic communications
* Mobile Social networks


PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION
================================

Papers should neither have been published elsewhere nor being currently
under review by another conference or journal. Manuscripts are limited
to 6 pages, single spacing, double column, and must strictly adhere to
the template format.

Accepted papers will appear in the symposium proceedings published by
IEEE. There will be no separate workshop registration, as one single
registration will cover both conference and workshops participation. At
least one author of each accepted

paper is required and present his/her work at the workshop. We will use
a free submission system for processing the submissions and reviews.
Extended versions of the selected workshop papers will be considered for
