AIM:

SSTiC 2014 is the second edition in a series started in 2013. For the
previous event, see http://grammars.grlmc.com/SSTiC2013/

SSTiC 2014 will be a research training event mainly addressed to PhD
students and PhD holders in the first steps of their academic career. It
intends to update them about the most recent developments in the diverse
branches of computer science and its neighbouring areas. To that purpose,
renowned scholars will lecture and will be available for interaction with
the audience.

SSTiC 2014 will cover the whole spectrum of computer science through 6
keynote lectures and 24 six-hour courses dealing with some of the most
lively topics in the field. The organizers share the idea that outstanding
speakers will really attract the brightest students.

ADDRESSED TO:

Graduate students from around the world. There are no formal pre-requisites
in terms of the academic degree the attendee must hold. However, since there
will be several levels among the courses, reference may be made to specific
knowledge background in the description of some of them.

SSTiC 2014 is also appropriate for more senior people who want to keep
themselves updated on developments in their own field or in other branches
of computer science. They will surely find it fruitful to listen and discuss
with scholars who are main references in computing nowadays.

REGIME:

In addition to keynotes, 3 parallel sessions will be held during the whole
event. Participants will be able to freely choose the courses they will be
willing to attend as well as to move from one to another.

VENUE:

SSTiC 2014 will take place in Tarragona, located 90 kms. to the south of
Barcelona. The venue will be:

Campus Catalunya

ORGANIZING COMMITTEE:

Adrian Horia Dediu (Tarragona)
Carlos Mart?n-Vide (Tarragona, chair)
Florentina Lilica Voicu (Tarragona)

REGISTRATION:

It has to be done at

http://grammars.grlmc.com/sstic2014/registration.php

The selection of up to 8 courses requested in the registration template is
only tentative and non-binding. For the sake of organization, it will be
helpful to have an approximation of the respective demand for each course.

Since the capacity of the venue is limited, registration requests will be
processed on a first come first served basis. The registration period will
be closed when the capacity of the venue will be complete. It is very
convenient to register prior to the event.

FEES:

As far as possible, participants are expected to attend for the whole (or
most of the) week (full-time). Fees are a flat rate allowing one to
participate to all courses. They vary depending on the registration
deadline.

ACCOMMODATION:

Information about accommodation is available on the website of the School.

CERTIFICATE:

Participants will be delivered a certificate of attendance.

SWANSITY 2014 Self-organizing Wireless Access Networks for Smart cITY

-----In conjuction with IEEE-SECON 2014-------

==============================================
June 30th, 2014 Singapore

https://sites.google.com/site/swansity2014


Important dates
Submission deadline: April 7th, 2014 (EXTENDED)
Notification of acceptance:April 30th, 2014
Camera Ready: May 12th, 2014
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.
All submissions must be written in English and be at most six (6) printed
pages in length, including figures.
