ICT and Green are two tightly related concepts. Indeed, ICT systems might support sustainability in different ways. On the one hand, the design of more efficient ICT systems can contribute in decreasing the energy consumption related to ICT that is continuously increasing. For example, in some regions of the world (e.g., US and UK) the energy consumed by the data centers is close to 10% of the total energy consumed in the area by the country. On the other hand, ICT can be used to monitor the impact of other systems (e.g., buildings, transportation) on the environmental sustainability and to support green-aware decisions. The purpose of ICGreen is to bring together researchers and practitioners that deal with the design of Green ICT systems or of ICT use for environmental sustainability.

More information on the Conference can be found at the Conference Web site:

[DMANET] Graph Drawing and Network Visualization, GD 2015 - Call for Papers

===========================================================================

Call for Papers

GD 2015

23rd International Symposium on
Graph Drawing and Network Visualization

September 24-26, 2015 - Los Angeles, CA, USA
http://www.csun.edu/gd2015/

===========================================================================

Graph Drawing is concerned with the geometric representation of graphs and
constitutes the algorithmic core of Network Visualization. Graph Drawing and
Network Visualization are motivated by applications where it is crucial to
visually analyze and interact with relational datasets. Examples of such
application areas include social sciences, Internet and Web computing,
information systems, computational biology, networking, VLSI circuit
design,
and software engineering.

The International Symposium on Graph Drawing has been the main annual event
in this area for more than twenty years. This year the Steering
Committee of
GD decided to extend the name of the conference from the "International
Symposium on Graph Drawing" to the "International Symposium on Graph
Drawing
and Network Visualization" in order to better emphasize the dual focus of
the conference on combinatorial and algorithmic aspects as well as the
design
of network visualization systems and interfaces.

The conference will be hosted by the California State University at
Northridge,
in Los Angeles, CA, from September 24 to 26, 2015. Researchers and
practitioners
working on any aspect of graph drawing and network visualization are
invited to
contribute papers and posters and to participate in the symposium and
the graph
drawing contest.

PAPERS
------

We invite authors to submit papers describing original research of
theoretical
or practical significance to graph drawing and network visualization.
Regular
papers must be submitted explicitly to one of two distinct tracks. Papers
submitted to one track will not compete with papers submitted to the
other track.

Track 1: Combinatorial and algorithmic aspects
----------------------------------------------

This track is mainly devoted to fundamental graph drawing advances, such as
combinatorial aspects and algorithm design. The range of topics for
this track
includes (but is not limited to) the following:

* Design and analysis of graph drawing algorithms
* Theory of geometric graphs
* Geometric computing
* Planarity and topological graph theory
* Optimization on graphs

Track 2: Experimental, applied, and network visualization aspects
-----------------------------------------------------------------

This track is mainly devoted to the practical aspects of graph drawing,
such as
the development of network visualization systems and interfaces in
different
application areas. The range of topics for this track includes (but is not
limited to) the following:

* Visualization of graphs and networks in application areas (e.g.,
social
sciences, biology, geography, software engineering, circuit design,
business intelligence)
* Software systems for network visualization
* The engineering of visualization systems and algorithms
* Experimental results in graph theory and graph algorithms
* Benchmarks and experimental analysis for network visualization
systems and
user interfaces
* Cognitive studies on graph drawing readability and user interaction
* Interfaces for interacting with graphs

Notes and Demos
---------------

Besides the two tracks above there will be a separate category called
"Notes
and Demos". In this category it will be possible to submit theoretical
contributions (notes) and applied papers (demos) of shorter length. Papers
in this category will be assigned a shorter time for presentation during
the
conference. In addition, the authors of demo papers will have the
opportunity
to make a demo of their software/system during the poster session.

Submission format
-----------------

All submissions must be formatted using the LaTeX style file for the
conference
series Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) provided by Springer.
The margins and font size must not be modified. Submissions that do not
comply
with this format risk being rejected. The length of regular papers is
limited
to 12 pages, while the length of notes and demos is limited to 6 pages. The
claims of the paper should be fully substantiated, including full proofs or
appropriate experimental data. If this information does not fit within
the page
limits, the authors should include it in a clearly marked appendix,
whose length
is not constrained and which the reviewers may read at their own discretion.

POSTERS
-------

Submissions of posters on graph drawing, network visualization, and related
areas are also solicited. The poster session will provide a forum for the
communication of late-breaking research results (which may also appear
elsewhere) to the graph drawing community. Authors of posters should
prepare
an abstract (up to two pages in the LNCS style) that must be submitted
together with the poster.


CONTEST
-------

Following the tradition of previous conferences, a Graph Drawing Contest
will
be held. Details about the contest will be provided on the conference
Web site.

PUBLICATION
-----------

Accepted papers (regular ones, notes and demos) will appear in the
conference
proceedings, published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science
series. Twelve pages will be allocated for regular papers and six for notes
and demos. Abstracts of accepted posters will also appear in the conference
proceedings (two pages), but will not be made available for indexing.
Selected papers will be invited for submission to a special issue of the
Journal of Graph Algorithms and Applications.

AWARDS
------

For each of the two tracks, the Program Committee of GD 2015 will give a
Best Paper Award. In addition, to recognize the effort of participants to
present their work in a clear and elegant way, there will be a Best
Presentation
Award voted on by the GD 2015 attendees.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Framework for Random Metric Spaces

Large-scale optimization problems show up in many domains, such as
engineering, scheduling, economics, but also, e.g., in the sciences.
Unfortunately, finding optimal solutions within reasonable time is often
impossible because the problems that have to be solved are
computationally intractable. Because of this, optimization problems are
nowadays often attacked using ad-hoc heuristics. Many such heuristics
show a remarkable performance, but their theoretical (worst-case)
performance is poor - worst-case analysis is often too pessimistic to
reflect the performance observed. In order to explain the performance of
heuristics, probabilistic analysis is the method of choice, where
performance is analyzed with respect to random instances.

The instances of many optimization problems involve, implicitly or
explicitly, a metric space. This can be physical distances, but also,
e.g., costs for travel or transportation. Up to now, however,
probabilistic analysis of algorithms is almost exclusively restricted to
Euclidean instances or the distances are drawn independently,
disregarding the metric nature. Both approaches fall short of explaining
the average-case performance of heuristics on general metric instances.

Our goal is to develop and apply a framework for random metric spaces.
We want to develop models for random metric spaces, study their
properties, and apply these findings to explain the observed performance
of heuristics for optimization problems. The goal is to obtain more
conclusive insights about performance than with the traditionally used
models, and to use the insights obtained to design better algorithms.

[DMANET] CFP: SWANSITY 2015 (in conjunction with SECON), deadline April 1

=========================================
CFP: SWANSITY 2015 - 2nd Workshop on Smart Wireless Access Networks for
Smart cITY
>>>>> In conjunction with SECON 2015 <<<<<
=========================================
22 June 2015, SEATTLE - USA

www.ieee-secon.org/swansity

Important dates
Submission deadline: April 1st, 2015
Notification of acceptance: April 20th, 2015
Camera Ready: May 11th, 2015
Program: June 1st, 2015
Accepted papers will be published on IEEE Xplore

Scope
The main goals of a smart-city are to improve sustainability and
livability, to ease city government and organization, and to increase
services to the citizens. The primary role of ICT in enabling this
vision is to keep the decision makers, the stake holders and the citizen
constantly updated with fresh information collected around the city.

To accomplish this task, next generation cities, will be populated with
billion of heterogeneous devices ranging from tiny communicating objects
(e.g., actuators, sensors, tags) able to interact with the surrounding
environment and remote systems, to high-end nodes (e.g., data centers,
workstations) capable of complex operations and to process an huge
amount of information. In this futuristic scenario a very special role
is played by citizens with their smartphones, tablets and portable
devices. They are constantly connected with whatever surroundings them
and they are formidable information consumers. At the same time,
citizens roaming around the city may be considered as mobile probes
which, by making uses of cyber and physical data accessible by
smartphones, can analyze the situation and produce reports to the
community. Furthermore smartphones can actively contributing in creating
the communication infrastructure by forwarding data coming from
surrounding devices.

All in all, cities are going to become a new complex ecosystem which has
the potentiality to offer many amazing features and support innovative
application. Unfortunately, fully exploiting, managing and accessing
that ecosystem are still far to be fully viable and their fulfillment
surely poses a formidable challenge.

The SWANSITY workshop aims to solicit contributions on novel algorithms,
methodological studies and experimentations on how to enable the
formerly described ecosystem. Specifically, on how devise a city-wide
networking infrastructure capable to efficiently guarantee communication
in the new envisaged ecosystem, to manage the complexity of
heterogeneous devices and access technologies, and to guarantee robust,
ubiquitous, and secure connectivity over the urban environments.
In line with such objectives, original contributions are solicited in
topics of interest including, but not limited to, the following:

- Models of network componentsí interactions on a smart-city
- Enabling wireless and mobile technologies for smart cities
- Novel communication protocols for M2M Communications;
- Device-2-Device Communications (D2D);
- IoT architectures and middleware for smart cities;
- Self-organizing wireless networks for pervasive urban access;
- Network virtualization for heterogeneous wireless networks;
- Distributed Sensing and Control in Smart Cities;
- Mobile-aware cloud computing models, infrastructures, and approaches
for smart cities
- Smartphone-based sensing systems, tools, applications in Smart City
environments;
- Smartphone and mobile systems and applications;
- Cyber-physical interactions with smartphones;
- Crowd sourcing in smart cities;
- Dynamic trust management models for Smartphone based networks and
applications;
- Cooperation incentive models for Smartphone based networks and
applications;
- Reliability, Security, Privacy and Trust in smart cities ecosystems;
- Business model to promote users collaboration and resources sharing in
smart cities ecosystems;
- Testbed demonstrating the feasibility of Smartphone based networks and
interaction with Cyber physical Systems;
- Applications, Business, Standards, and Social Issue;
- Security models to promote Smartphone collaboration and resources sharing
- Cooperative Smart Objects supporting Wireless Networks
Interoperability and Management

All accepted papers will be published by the IEEE Computer Society
Conference Publishing Services and IEEE Xplore Digital Library.

Submission Instructions:
Prospective authors are invited to submit original technical paper by
the deadline of 1st April 2015. Submissions will be accepted through

Description
-----------

The OPTIMIZATION-BASED DESIGN OF ENERGY SYSTEMS generally leads to
mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problems. In recent years, a
surge of interest in (non-convex) MINLP problems in the mathematical
optimization community produced remarkable algorithmic progress and
triggered new developments, in particular new implementations.

To benefit most from these advances, ENGINEERS AND MATHEMATICIANS should
tie up, each contributing their own expertise. Aim of this workshop is
to bring together researchers from both fields to learn about the latest
work and to foster collaborations.

The workshop consists of INVITED TALKS on recent work, complemented by
THREE KEYNOTES delivered by the following distinguished speakers.

[DMANET] CG Week Multimedia Exposition - Second Call for Submissions

Video and multimedia contributions are sought for the 24th Multimedia
Exposition in Computational Geometry, a part of CG Week 2015. This
event showcases the use of visualization in computational geometry
for exposition and education, for visual exploration of geometry in
research, and as an interface and a debugging tool in software
development. Algorithm animations, visual explanations of structural
theorems, descriptions of applications of computational geometry,
demonstrations of software systems, and games that illustrate
concepts from computational geometry are all appropriate. There are
no limitations on creativity, anything that leverages the
possibilities of multimedia to enlighten and entertain the viewer
while learning about computational geometry will do. This includes
rendered animation, films with narrators and/or actors, and
interactive stories.

We seek submissions of high quality, judged by how well they exploit
the creative possibilities of their respective formats. That is, a
screencast of static slides with some voice-over will hardly do.


QUALITY ISSUES

For videos, a length of three to five minutes is usually ideal; ten
minutes is the upper limit. For the final version, we require video
in 720P or better, using H.264. The embedded audio stream should be
AAC of at least 128kBit/s. Telephone-sounding audio (limited
frequency range, noise) or live rooms, as often recorded with cheap
headsets, must be avoided, as well as speakers with too heavy accent.

There are no general guidelines for other content. Interactive
applications (e.g., HTML5, Flash, AIR, Java, etc.) should have a
"demo" mode where the algorithm runs on its own. They should be
submitted as a distributable package.

To conserve resources, please try to keep your submission at a
reasonable size. The program committee may recode the submission at a
lower quality to reduce the space requirements. Authors are free to
post higher quality versions on their own web sites, and we will
include links in the electronic proceedings to their version, in
addition to the official version archived on
www.computational-geometry.org

It is strongly encouraged to contact the PC well in advance
to 1) discuss the quality of a video submission (based on sample
files) or 2) to present your non-video idea and how it could be
reviewed, presented, and distributed.


SUBMISSION

Submissions should be deposited online where they are accessible
through the web or via FTP. A video submission should play
trouble-free on programs like VLC Media Player. For ease of sharing
and viewing, we encourage (but do not require) that each video
submission be uploaded to YouTube (not necessarly publicly visible),
and that the corresponding URL be included with the submission.

Each submission should include a three-page description of the
material shown in the presentation, and where applicable, the
techniques used in the implementation. This three-page description
must be formatted according to the guidelines for the conference
proceedings, using the LIPIcs format. LIPIcs typesetting instructions
can be found at http://www.dagstuhl.de/en/publications/lipics and
the lipics.cls LaTeX style file at
http://drops.dagstuhl.de/styles/lipics/lipics-authors.tgz.

Send a mail to the committee chair, Wolfgang Mulzer
(mulzer@inf.fu-berlin.de) by February 13, 2015, 23:59 (UTC-12), with
the following information:
- the names and institutions of the authors
- the email address of the corresponding author
- instructions for downloading the submission
- if available: the link to the YouTube video
- and the PDF abstract.

We explicitly encourage video/multimedia submissions that support
papers submitted to the Symposium on Computational Geometry.
However, submitted papers and associated video/multimedia
