5th IEEE International Workshop on Smart Communication Protocols and Algorithms (SCPA 2017)
May 21-25, 2017. Paris, France
In conjunction with IEEE ICC 2017
http://scpa.it.ubi.pt/2017/
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Selected papers will be invited to the Special Issue on Smart Protocols and Algorithms of the International Journal Network Protocols and Algorithms (ISSN: 1943-3581) or to the Special Issue on Recent Advances on Communications and Networking Technology Journal (ISSN: 2215-082X (Online); ISSN: 2215-0811 (Print)).
Communication protocols and algorithms are needed to communicate network devices and exchange data between them. The appearance of new technologies usually comes with a protocol procedure and communication rules that allows data communication while taking profit of this new technology. Recent advances in hardware and communication mediums allow proposing new rules, conventions and data structures which could be used by network devices to communicate across the network. Moreover, devices with higher processing capacity let us include more complex algorithms that can be used by the network device to enhance the communication procedure.
Smart communication protocols and algorithms make use of several methods and techniques (such as machine learning techniques, decision making techniques, knowledge representation, network management, network optimization, problem solution techniques, and so on), to communicate the network devices to transfer data between them. They can be used to perceive the network conditions, or the user behavior, in order to dynamically plan, adapt, decide, take the appropriate actions, and learn from the consequences of its actions. The algorithms can make use of the information gathered from the protocol in order to sense the environment, plan actions according to the input, take consciousness of what is happening in the environment, and take the appropriate decisions using a reasoning engine. Goals such as decide which scenario fits best its end-to-end purpose, or environment prediction, can be achieved with smart protocols and algorithms. Moreover, they could learn from the pas!
t and use this knowledge to improve
future decisions.
In this workshop, researchers are encouraged to submit papers focused on the design, development, analysis or optimization of smart communication protocols or algorithms at any communication layer. Algorithms and protocols based on artificial intelligence techniques for network management, network monitoring, quality of service enhancement, performance optimization and network secure are included in the workshop.
We welcome technical papers presenting analytical research, simulations, practical results, position papers addressing the pros and cons of specific proposals, and papers addressing the key problems and solutions. The topics suggested by the conference can be discussed in term of concepts, state of the art, standards, deployments, implementations, running experiments and applications.

*10.00: *Refreshments and networking
*10.30: *Rob Morris (IMPA) - The sharp threshold for making squares
Many of the fastest known algorithms for factoring large integers rely
on finding subsequences of randomly generated sequences of integers
whose product is a perfect square. Motivated by this, at the 1994 ICM
Pomerance posed the problem of determining the threshold of the event
that a random sequence of /N/ integers, each chosen uniformly from the
set /{1,...,x}/, contains a subsequence, the product of whose elements
is a perfect square. In 1996, Pomerance gave good bounds on this
threshold and also conjectured that it is /sharp/.
A few years ago, in a major breakthrough, Croot, Granville, Pemantle and
Tetali significantly improved these bounds, and stated a conjecture as
to the location of this sharp threshold. In the talk we will discuss a
proof of their conjecture, which combines techniques from number theory
and probabilistic combinatorics. In particular, at the heart of the
proof lies a self-correcting random process of non-uniform hypergraphs.
*11.40: *Stefanie Gerke (RHUL) - Matchings in random bipartite graphs
We consider maximum matchings in random bipartite graphs with a fixed
degree distribution. We then introduce an adversary and show for a
simplified model under which conditions a matching exists that covers
the smaller partition class.

The Faculty of Computer Science at the University of Koblenz-Landau, Campus
Koblenz, Computer Networks Group, is inviting applications for a
PhD Position (research fellow)
(3 years, full time)
for working within the DFG priority program "Cyber-Physical Networking
(SPP 1914)". The position is to be filled as soon as possible, limited to 3
years and is subject to the German law on fixed-term contracts in science
(WissZeitVG). Salary will be according to the German public service salary
scale TV-L EGr. 13.
Topic:
The prospective research assistant will be responsible for the project
"analysis and synthesis of combined cooperative control and topology control
over wireless network models". This is a joint project between the Computer
Networks Group at the University of Koblenz-Landau and the Institute of
Control Systems at the Hamburg-Harburg Technical University. At both sites
one PhD student is supposed to work in this project context. The PhD student
employed at the University of Koblenz-Landau will research appropriate
adaptation of the time-varying wireless communication graph in multi-agent
systems. Such multi-agent systems are for example autonomous AUV or UAV
robot swarms. Of particular interest are topology control schemes to
maintain the highest level of algebraic connectivity (a condition for
performance and robustness of cooperative control) while reducing the number
of message losses due to interference (modeled in this project with the SINR
model). Focus is on distributed and local solutions with the goal to support
any system scale.
The effectiveness of the developed topology control schemes and their
interaction with distributed control will be evaluated by simulation studies
on some selected distributed control scenarios (e.g. distributed source
seeking based on robot swarms).
Requirements:
We expect:
- An above-average completed scientific university study, preferably in the
area of computer science or mathematics (M.Sc or Diploma).
- Ability to carry out independent scientific work
- Skills to mathematically proof theoretical claims
- Interests to do research in the area of algorithms and graphs
- Very good proficiency in written and spoken English
It is the policy of the University Koblenz-Landau to increase the percentage
of female employees. If equally qualified, preference will be given to
female applicants in fields where they are underrepresented. Disabled
candidates are given priority, if equally qualified. International
candidates are highly encouraged to apply.
Applicants should send their documents (curriculum vitae, qualifications
etc.) quoting the reference number Ko-44/2016, before Jan-31-2017 either by
regular mail to Universität Koblenz-Landau, Ref. K 21 Personal,
Organisation, Wahlen, Universitätsstr. 1, 56070 Koblenz or by email to
bewerbung-fb4@uni-koblenz.de. Applications after the deadline will be
considered as long as the position is not filled.
We do not send a confirmation of receipt. In accordance to the protection of
data privacy all documents will be destroyed after the application
procedure.
