**** ACM SenSys 2014 ****
Memphis, TN, USA
November 3-6, 2014
http://sensys.acm.org/2014/workshops/
=====================================================
The 12th ACM Conference on Embedded Networked Sensor Systems (SenSys 2014) is a highly selective, single-track forum for research on systems issues of networked sensing and actuation, broadly defined. Systems of smart sensors and actuators will revolutionize a wide array of application areas by providing an unprecedented density and fidelity of instrumentation. They also present systems challenges because of resource constraints, uncertainty, irregularity, mobility, and scale. This conference provides an ideal venue to address research challenges facing the design, development, deployment, use, and fundamental limits of these systems. Sensing and actuation systems require contributions from many fields, from wireless communication and networking, embedded systems and hardware, energy harvesting and management, distributed systems and algorithms, data management, and applications, so we welcome cross-disciplinary work.
Workshops will be held on Thursday, Nov 6, 2014.
The ideal workshop proposal should focus on a specific emerging research area that is of strategic and long-term interest to the Embedded Networked Sensor Systems community. Interdisciplinary efforts that can leverage the expertise in the SenSys community while reaching out to new application domains, emerging technologies, and data analytics expertise to solve real-world sensing problems, are particularly encouraged. Workshops could have a combination of relevant invited talks from experts in a field, together with research papers and demos in the area.
The proposal should be no longer than three pages, and should clearly provide the following information:
. name of workshop
. theme of workshop
. topic areas of interest (to define scope)
. name(s) and affiliation(s) of main organizer(s)/program chair(s)
. the name of the organizing committee member who will be the main point of contact
. names of potential program committee members
. tentative call for papers with workshop deadlines
. expected number of submissions and participants
The proposal should also specify if it will be a full-day or half-day workshop, and any logistical needs (demos/audio/video projection, etc). If the workshop has been held before, also include its history (number of submissions, number of accepted papers, and number of attendees).
Note that selection priority will be given to proposals arising from previously successful co-located workshops.
Please send proposals in PDF format to the Workshop Chair (davidboyleimperial.ac.uk) by 31 March, 2014.

CALL FOR PAPERS
Slowly but steadily the Internet of Things (IoT) is penetrating and
transforming our lives. The first stage of the IoT evolution consisted
in the deployment of RFID tags for facilitating routing, taking
inventory and loss prevention of goods. After that we witnessed the
first wave of RFID and sensor network integration toward
vertical-market applications. Nowadays, new generations of RFID tags,
in particular active RFID tags, often include built-in sensing
capabilities. Whereas, applications based on sensor networks often
require means for unique identification and discovery of objects,
which are monitored by the sensor network. The convergence of sensing
and identification technologies, together with communication and
computation systems, enables us to gain impressive awareness about the
state of the real world and will drastically change the way we
interact with our environment. Urban planning, smart cities,
intelligent shopping, smart meters, home automation, security and
surveillance, industrial applications like process industry
automation, supply chain, smart product management and agricultural
applications are examples of potential applications for real-world
systems. Even though the advent of the IPv6/6LoWPAN protocol suite
solved several technical issues, many challenges are still open in
the research and development communities concerning the choice of
communication paradigms, architectures and technology.
The main focus of this workshop is on technologies, applications and
paradigms of the IoT that are already deployed or are under
investigation and that belong to the second stage of the IoT
evolution.
The next step in the evolution of the IoT is its characterization as
the underlying technological layer needed to shape and substantiate
higher layer concepts such as semantic web and personalization. In
fact, the IoT is the enabling technology to allow virtual and physical
worlds to converge in what has already been defined as Web 3.0. If,
currently, the IoT is the most suited companion of blogging,
podcasting, tagging and social networking, we can imagine that its
evolution will foster the rise of statistical, machine-constructed
semantic tags and algorithms through the construction and exploitation
of semantic databases empowered by distributed and cloud computing.
The integration of the IoT with semantic databases, capable of
delivering accurate information about the nature and the state of
every physical object will introduce a staggering amount of new
applications opportunities as well as potentially lead to an ultimate
?Big brother scenario?. Therefore, a particular interest will have to
be given to appropriate security and privacy control mechanisms.
The secondary focus of this workshop is on IoT vision and perspective
towards Web 3.0.
IoTIP features two tracks:
- Current ideas: for technical works currently under investigation;
- Future perspectives: for vision papers envisaging possible future
technologies, paradigms and applications for IoT.
Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to:
- IoT paradigms, architectures, applications and technologies
- IoT systems and components
- IoT for semantic web and personalization
- Tools for developing IoT applications
- Blogging, Podcasting, Tagging and Social networking through the
IoT
- Cloud vs distributed computing for the IoT
- Security and privacy control mechanisms
- Performance assessment and management (QoS, scalability,
reliability, etc)
- PHY layer, Spectrum management for IoT radio communications
- MAC protocols (e.g., scheduling, power control etc.) for IoT
- Mobility management
- Naming, address management and End-to-End Addressability
- Object, device and service management
- RFID, sensors, actuator technologies
- Middleware
- Sustainable design and technologies (e.g. energy-efficiency)
- Test-beds and field trials
- Standardization and regulatory issues

*** Deadline Extension *** : The QPLIB2014 submission deadline has been extended to May 1, 2014.
Quadratic programming problems have received an increasing amount of attention in recent years, both from theoretical and practical points of view. However, a library specifically conceived for this class of problems does not exist yet. For this reason we feel the need to define a standard test set to compare the performance of different generic quadratic optimization software and to evaluate the computational performance of newly developed algorithms and solution techniques. We are looking for interesting and challenging problems from all fields of Global Optimization, Operations Research and Combinatorial Optimization, ideally those which have been built to model real life problems.
We are interested in benchmarking instances with the following characteristics:
* Generic Quadratic objective function.
* Binary, integer and continuous variables.
* Generic Quadratic and/or linear constraints.
Please submit by email to the following address: QPlib2014@gmail.com
The submitted instances must be in one of the following formats: GAMS/AMPL/LP/MPS. The submission of instances should be accompanied by a few lines of description with the following information:
* authors/institution/company providing the instance
* references (optional)
* optimum value or upper and lower bounds (optional)
* any additional relevant information (optional)
Please find the QPlib2014 web page here:
http://www.lamsade.dauphine.fr/QPlib2014/
The submission deadline is: 1st May 2014.
Please feel free to contact us for any questions, doubts or additional information.
We are looking forward to your contribution!

PRIVACY IN STATISTICAL DATABASES 2014 (PSD 2014)
================================================
***FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS: HARD SUBMISSION DEADLINE MAY 11, 2014***
Eivissa, Balearic Islands, Sep. 17-19, 2014
http://unescoprivacychair.urv.cat/psd2014
1. AIMS AND GOALS
-----------------
Privacy in statistical databases is about finding tradeoffs to the
tension between the increasing societal and economical demand for
accurate information and the legal and ethical obligation to protect
the privacy of individuals and enterprises which are the respondents
providing the statistical data. In the case of statistical databases,
the motivation for respondent privacy is one of survival: statistical
agencies or survey institutes cannot expect to collect accurate
information from individual or corporate respondents unless these feel
the privacy of their responses is guaranteed.
Beyond respondent privacy, there are two additional privacy dimensions
to be considered: privacy for the data owners (organizations owning or
gathering the data, who would not like to share the data they have
collected at great expense) and privacy for the users (those who
submit queries to the database and would like their analyses to stay
private).
"Privacy in Statistical Databases 2014" (PSD 2014) is a conference
sponsored and organized by the UNESCO Chair in Data Privacy
(http://unescoprivacychair.urv.cat) with proceedings published by
Springer-Verlag in Lecture Notes in Computer Science. It purpose is to
attract world-wide, high-level research in statistical database
privacy.
PSD 2014 is a successor to PSD 2012 (Palermo, Sep. 26-28, 2012,
http://unescoprivacychair.urv.cat/psd2012), PSD 2010 (Corfu, Sep.
22-24, 2010, http://unescoprivacychair.urv.cat/psd2010), PSD 2008
(Istanbul, Sep. 24-26, 2008,
http://unescoprivacychair.urv.cat/psd2008), PSD 2006 (Rome, Dec.
13-15, 2006, http://crises-deim.urv.cat/psd2006) and PSD 2004
(Barcelona, June 9-11, 2004, http://crises-deim.urv.cat/psd2004), all
with proceedings published by Springer in LNCS 7556, LNCS 6344, LNCS
5262, LNCS 4302 and LNCS 3050, respectively. Those six PSD conferences
follow a tradition of high-quality technical conferences on SDC which
started with "Statistical Data Protection-SDP'98", held in Lisbon in
1998 and with proceedings published by OPOCE, and continued with the
AMRADS project SDC Workshop, held in Luxemburg in 2001 and with
proceedings published in Springer LNCS 2316.
Like the aforementioned preceding conferences, PSD 2014 originates in
Europe, but wishes to stay a worldwide event in database privacy and
SDC. Thus, contributions and attendees from overseas are welcome.
