Important dates

Program: June 1st, 2014


Scope

The SWANSITY workshop aims to solicit contributions on novel algorithms, methodological studies and experimentations on how to make a city-wide network infrastructure able to self-adapt to the dynamic requirements posed by the users and by the applications, to manage the complexity of heterogeneous devices and access technologies, and to guarantee robust, ubiquitous, and secure connectivity over the urban environments. At the same time, beside studying the issues of the city-wide infrastructure deployment, the workshop aims to investigate the potential provided by the end-users devices (e.g. smartphones, tablets) when augmented with self-organization capabilities, in order to turn them into active components of the smart-city network, instead of mere connection end-points. Such a potential includes the possibility to extend the network access in a pervasive way, to provide ubiquitous computing services, and to favor the emergence of ?collectivity intelligence behaviors? !
through collaboration and direct communication among devices.
In line with such objectives, original contributions are solicited in topics of interest including, but not limited to, the following:

- Models of network components? interactions on a smart-city
- Techniques and tools for modeling self-organizing wireless networks on large-scale urban environments
- Self-organizing wireless networks for pervasive urban access
- Self-organizing and self-repairing wireless networks for disaster recovery
- Dynamic resource allocation schemes for urban environments
- Evolutionary design of wireless network components and devices
- Enabling technologies and algorithms for self-configuring wireless nodes
- Self-organizing femtocell and cognitive radio networks
- Cooperative Smart Objects supporting Wireless Networks Interoperability
- Decision making strategies for software defined radio devices
- Emerging collective intelligence in self-organizing wireless networks
- Network virtualization for heterogeneous wireless networks
- Bio-inspired models for self-organizing wireless networks
- Controlled mobility algorithms for self-placing wireless networks
- Self-organizing networks through Device-2-Device technology (D2D)
- Business model to promote users collaboration and resources sharing
- Security, Privacy and Trust issues in Self-organizing wireless networks


Prospective authors are invited to submit original technical paper by the deadline of 31 March 2014. Submissions will be accepted through EDAS ( http://edas.info/N16973 ). All submissions must be written in English and be at most six (6) printed pages in length, including figures.

Subject: [DMANET] NetworKit 3.0 released
Message-ID: <53271962.50602@kit.edu>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-15"; format=flowed

We announce NetworKit 3.0 [1], the next major release of our open-source
tookit for high-performance network analysis. NetworKit is a hybrid
which provides C++/OpenMP kernels through a Python interface. Since the
last release in November, NetworKit has received several improvements
under the hood as well as an extension of the feature set.

More detailed information can be found in the accompanying publication
[2]. This being an open-source project, we are very interested in
incorporating feedback from data analysts and algorithm engineers.

Dear DMANET colleagues,

Please feel free to forward this to anyone you think might be interested. The PhD position will be based at the Department of Knowledge Engineering (DKE) at Maastricht University, in the Netherlands. It
is funded by an NWO TOP grant.

Kind regards,

Steven Kelk

* PhD position: Phylogenetic incongruence at the limits of algorithmic graph theory
https://www.academictransfer.com/employer/UM/vacancy/22172/lang/en/

Phylogenetics is the science of inferring plausible evolutionary histories, often modelled as trees but also (increasingly) as directed acyclic graphs, from partial data. This gives rise to formidable combinatorial optimization problems. Due to their fundamental character, successfully resolving these problems is likely to have a wider impact in algorithmic graph theory. The research will include themes such as approximation algorithms, fixed parameter tractability and exponential-time algorithms.

The PhD fellow should have a strong MSc-level background in mathematics, computer science, operations research or a related discipline. Candidates with expertise in any/all of the following topics are particularly welcome: combinatorial optimization, (algorithmic) graph theory, discrete mathematics, theoretical computer science. Knowledge of computational biology is not necessary, although affinity with this field will be appreciated. Candidates must be comfortable with writing and speaking in English.

For full instructions on how to apply, and on conditions, please follow the Academic Transfer link shown above.

Deadline is April 7th.
