Paper categories
There are two categories of submission – full papers and exploratory
papers. Full papers should report more complete and denser research,
while the later submission deadline for exploratory papers allows quick
reporting of recent discoveries, work-in-progress and/or partial
results. Submissions in the full paper category are refereed and
selected by the program committee. Papers in the exploratory category
go through a less rigorous evaluation process.
Submission
Authors are invited to submit extended abstracts of no more than 14
pages (for full papers) or 8 pages (for exploratory papers) via the
EasyChair system at
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=automata2016
Submissions should contain original research that has not previously
been published. Concurrent submissions to other conferences/journals is
not permitted. Supplementary material that exceeds the above mentioned
page limits may be included as an appendix and will be considered at
the committee's discretion (note that appendices will not be published
in the proceedings). Submission must be formatted in LaTeX using the
LNCS format (see http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs/lncs+authors)
and submitted in Portable Document Format (PDF). Papers authored or co
-authored by PC members are also welcome and will follow a specific
evaluation process.
Proceedings
Accepted full papers will appear in the proceedings published by
Springer in the LNCS series and will be available at the conference.
Exploratory papers will not be included in the LNCS proceedings;
however, they will be printed locally and given to conference
participants.

PhD Studentships - Theoretical Analysis of Evolutionary Processes
Applications are invited for PhD studentships funded by the
School of Computer Science, University of Nottingham.
Studentships are available from October 2016 for a period of
three years and include a stipend of £14,057 per year and tuition
fees, and are available to students of any
nationality. Applicants are expected to have a first-class
Masters or Bachelors degree in Computer Science or related
discipline, and must obtain support from a potential
supervisor. I will support strong applicants interested in the
following topic.
Evolutionary algorithms and other randomised search heuristics
have been successfully applied to various industrial optimisation
domains. However, the theoretical understanding of these methods
has been limited. Recently, there has been significant progress
in analysing the runtime (also called optimisation time) of
randomised search heuristics using rigorous techniques from
probability theory and theoretical computer science including
analysis of randomised algorithm. Results about the runtime give
insights into how the behaviour of a randomised search heuristic
depends on its parameter-settings and on the characteristics of
the underlying optimisation problem.
The successful candidate(s) will contribute to this exciting
research area, which lies at the interface between probability
theory and theoretical computer science. The aim is to develop
theory that aids in predicting and controlling the behaviour of
evolutionary processes, both natural processes as well as
evolutionary algorithms.
The topic is mathematically challenging and requires an excellent
degree in mathematics or computer science. In particular, the
candidate should have a strong background in probability theory,
discrete mathematics, and/or theoretical computer science.
The research will be carried out in the context of the EU-funded
project Speed of Adaptation in Population Genetics and
Evolutionary Computation (SAGE) which brings together researchers
from population genetics and evolutionary computation. The
studentship is locally associated with the Automated Scheduling,
OptimisAtion and Planning (ASAP) research group, one of the
Research Groups within the School of Computer Science at
Nottingham.

CALL FOR PAPERS
Tenth IEEE WoWMoM Workshop on
Autonomic and Opportunistic Communications (AOC 2016)
June 21, 2016 - Coimbra, Portugal
http://cnd.iit.cnr.it/aoc2016
in conjunction with IEEE WoWMoM, 2016
http://wowmom2016.uc.pt/
**** Submission Deadline --- March 10, 2016 ****
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SCOPE AND OVERVIEW
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 2016 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 such solutions based on fog or edge computing, and insights from complex network analysis applied to autonomic and opportunistic communications.
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 2016 include, but are not limited to:
- Techniques for data dissemination and replication
- Context and social awareness mechanisms and algorithms
- Autonomous and self-adaptive systems for smart cities
- Autonomous solutions for IoT and cyber-physical systems
- Solutions based on fog or edge computing
- Big data for autonomic and opportunistic systems
- Mobile social networking algorithms and applications
- Co-existence of opportunistic networks with infrastructure mobile wireless networks
- Mobility models and statistical analysis of mobility traces
- 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
- Participatory and urban sensing in autonomic and opportunistic networks
- Game-theoretic insights to the operation of 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
- SNA and graph modeling for autonomic and opportunistic networks
- Autonomic and opportunistic solutions for mobile cloud applications
- Applications and middleware support
- Routing, transport, and reliability issues
PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION
--------------------------------
Submission will be managed electronically through EDAS (https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=21826).
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 must register to the workshop and present his/her work.
