International Journal of Distributed Sensor Networks (IJDSN)
Special Issue "Wireless Sensor Networks for Measuring the Impact of Human Activities over Different Environments"

Deadline for manuscript submissions: January 29, 2016
----------------------------------------------------
=== SPECIAL ISSUE - CALL FOR PAPERS ===
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are nowadays used in a wide variety of applications, such as military surveillance, scientific exploration, structural monitoring, and environmental monitoring applications, among others. These sorts of networks are complex systems whose correct operation mainly depends on the integration of physical sensors, computation processes, and communication between devices. Advances in smart device and sensor networks will drive innovation in important sectors such as energy efficiency, city/building design, healthcare, agriculture, transportation, and manufacturing.
Moreover, human actions motivated by achieving various purposes cause side effects on our environment. While the intended effects are usually positive, at least for those who promote action, side effects can be positive but very often are negative. Some most basic actions of how we do our day-to-day routines are the following: the way people move around the city, how people get rid of your waste, excessive cultivation or exploitation of natural resources, misuse of electrical appliances, or celebrating holidays with music and pyrotechnics, among others, which can have a significant impact on our environment, whether natural, social environments, or on our heritage.
For these reasons and taking into account the advantages that WSNs offer, this special issue aims to focus on new proposals and developments of WSNs for monitoring and evaluating the impact of human activity on the environments that surround us. Authors are invited to submit their original and unpublished research contributions to this special issue in relevant areas of WSNs, proposing new design concepts, architectures, and applications versus resource constraints and energy conservation.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- WSN issues and technologies for monitoring the effects of human behaviors on the environment
- Design of energy-efficient WSNs, hardware, software, and systems for monitoring sensitive environments
- Real-world case studies of WSNs where the effects of human behaviors are analyzed
- WSNs data management
- Prototyping of experimental WSNs and its test bench
- Evaluation of WSNs in sensitive scenarios
- WSNs for emergency response in natural/man-made disasters
- New proposals of WSNs architectures
- Efficient communication for WSNs architectures
- WSN for sustainable human behaviors
- Sustainable WSN for environmental sustainability
Authors can submit their manuscripts via the Manuscript Tracking System at:

Abstract
Cars have changed significantly over the last years, and will do so in the near future. Especially the integration of more and more sensors, such as camera or radar, and communication technologies opens up a whole new design space for in-vehicle applications. It is expected a different kind of automotive experience, where city streets will teem with small, driverless cars whose wireless capabilities direct traffic flow smoothly, so that to make traffic lights unnecessary. Furthermore, the use of cloud computing technology will enable passengers to work or play games during their commutes, while listening to their favorite music, as chosen by the car based on user profile. Vehicular communications can be considered as the "first social network for automobiles", since each driver can share data with other neighbors. As an instance, heavy traffic is a common occurrence in some areas on the roads (e.g., at intersections, taxi loading/unloading areas, and so on); as a consequence, roads become a popular social place for vehicles to connect to each other. Social characteristics and human behavior largely impact on vehicular ad hoc networks, and this arises to the vehicular social networks, which are formed when vehicles (individuals) "socialize" and share common interests.
The goal of this book is to provide the main features of Vehicular Social Networks (VSNs), from novel emerging technologies to social aspects used for mobile applications, as well as main issues and challenges. VSNs are described as decentralized opportunistic communication networks formed among vehicles. They exploit mobility aspects, and basics of traditional social networks, in order to create novel approaches of message exchange through the detection of dynamic social structures. Particular interest will be given to social aspects that are exploited in vehicular communications for both safety and entertainment applications. Indeed, vehicular communications can be considered as the "first social network for automobiles," because each driver can share data with other neighbors.
Selected topics that are covered in this book are related to: social networking techniques, social-based routing techniques applied to vehicular networks, data dissemination in VSNs, architectures for VSNs, as well as novel trends and challenges in VSNs. The book aims to provide significant technical and practical insights in different aspects, starting from a basic background on social networking, the inter-related technologies and applications to vehicular ad-hoc networks, the technical challenges, implementation and future trends.
Chapters dealing with the following aspects (but not limited to) are welcome:
* Part I: Basics on Social Networking
* Introduction to social networking technologies
* Traditional online social networks
* Security aspects in social networks
* Cooperative aspects in social networks
* Part II: From Social Networking to Vehicular Networks
* Introduction to VSNs
* Sociability aspects in routing for VSNs
* Data dissemination in VSNs
* Peer-to-peer architectures for VSNs
* Resource management in VSNs
* Cooperative communications in VSNs
* QoS support in VSNs
* Data fusion and aggregation in VSNs
* Part III: Applications for VSNs
* Social-based applications for VSNs
* Infotainment in VSNs
* Crowdsourcing applications for VSNs
* Security, privacy and trust in VSNs
* Gaming in vehicular social networks
* Incentives and other economic aspects of VSNs

CALL FOR PAPERS
EvoMUSART 2016
http://www.evostar.org/2016/cfp_evomusart.php
5th International Conference on Evolutionary and Biologically Inspired
Music, Sound, Art and Design
30 March - 1 April 2016
Part of evo* 2016
evo*: http://www.evostar.org
Following the success of previous events and the importance of the
field of evolutionary and biologically inspired (artificial neural
network, swarm, alife) music, sound, art and design, evomusart has
become an evo* conference with independent proceedings since 2012.
Thus, evomusart 2016 is the fifth International Conference on
Evolutionary and Biologically Inspired Music, Sound, Art and Design.
The use of biologically inspired techniques for the development of
artistic systems is a recent, exciting and significant area of
research. There is a growing interest in the application of these
techniques in fields such as: visual art and music generation,
analysis, and interpretation; sound synthesis; architecture; video;
poetry; design; and other creative tasks.
The main goal of evomusart 2016 is to bring together researchers who
are using biologically inspired computer techniques for artistic
tasks, providing the opportunity to promote, present and discuss
ongoing work in the area.
The event will be held in April, 2016 in Porto, Portugal, as part of
the evo* event.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Important Dates
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Submission: 1 November 2015
Notification to authors: 04 January 2016
Camera-ready deadline: 18 January 2016
Evo*: 30 March - 1 April 2016
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Publication Details
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Submissions will be rigorously reviewed for scientific and artistic
merit. Accepted papers will be presented orally or as posters at the
event and included in the evomusart proceedings, published by Springer
Verlag in a dedicated volume of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science
(LNCS) series. The papers which receive the best reviews will be
nominated for the Best Paper Award. The acceptance rate at EvoMUSART
2015 was 27.9% for papers accepted for oral presentation, and 25.6%
for poster presentation.
Submitters are strongly encouraged to provide in all papers a link for
