Recherche Profile
=================
The Computer Science Laboratory of Paris-North University (LIPN) has
been associated with CNRS since january 1992 and is a mixed research
unit since january 2001 (UMR 7030). Research at LIPN is carried out in
its major areas of expertise, in particular Combinatorics, Combinatorial
Optimisation, Algorithmics, Logic, Software, Natural Language, Machine
Learning. The laboratory is structured into five teams: A3, AOC, CALIN,
LCR and RCLN.
Successful candidates will hold a PhD in Operations Research or
Mathematical Programming, and will join the Algorithms and Combinatorial
Optimization (AOC) research team
(http://www-lipn.univ-paris13.fr/AOC/):
The AOC team is organized along three axes: Optimization on graphs,
Mathematical Programming and Parallel and Distributed Computing. These
three research axes are strongly linked together. The first one mainly
deals with optimization problems in graphs with focus on complexity,
Polyedral theory and Approximation.
The second axis of the AOC team (i.e., Mathematical Programming) deals
with the design and analysis (both theoretical and empirical) of
mathematical programming approaches and algorithms. Both exact and
heuristic approaches for solving hard combinatorial optimization
problems are developed. Among these approaches there are: branch and
cut, branch and price, methods of decomposition and relaxation.
Moreover, both MILP (mixed integer linear programming) and MINLP (mixed
integer non linear programming) are studied. The third axis deals with
problems intersecting three strongly linked domains: distributed
middleware and architecture, distributed programming and distributed
algorithms.
An interesting characteristic of the AOC team is that our expertise
covers a broad spectrum of topics either horizontal (from graph theory
to heuristics) or vertical (from algorithm design to detailed
implementation). The theoretical and methodological work is complete by
an industrial transfers.
The second axis is particularly interested in solving hard
combinatorial optimization problems by exact and matheuristic
approaches. The "maître de conférences" recruited will integrate the AOC
team LIPN on a mathematical programming profile. Expertise around
reformulation and decomposition methods will be appreciated.
Key words: combinatorial optimization, discrete applied mathematics,
mathematical programming.

[DMANET] research internship @ Xerox Research Centre Europe
An open internship position on a mix of string algorithms, grammatical
inference and statistical machine learning
*Description*
We are looking for a motivated intern for a project involving the use
of sequential patterns for the inference of grammars.
The Smallest Grammar Problem is the problem of finding the smallest
context-free grammars that generates exactly one given sequence. We
plan to generalize this in order to find grammars which generate a set
of natural language documents with a strong but hidden structure. This
structure will then be converted into additional features (through
tree kernels for example) in our analytics pipeline or alternatively
as a starting template for existing multilingual authoring tools.
*Requirements*
Research-oriented master student or PhD candidate in computer science
Knowledge of standard text algorithms and data structures
Knowledge of formal grammars (a course covering the Hopcroft & Ullman
book or equivalent for example)
Knowledge in statistical machine learning applied to text is a strong plus
Fluency in either C, C++ or Java is a plus
The intern will work closely with researchers in a very international
environment, and will be strongly encouraged to produce scientific
publications.
*Duration*: 5-6 months
*Start Date*: March-April 2014
*Application instructions*
Informal inquiries are welcome and can be made at
matthias.galle@xrce.xerox.com .
To submit an application, please send your CV and cover letter to both
xrce-candidates@xrce.xerox.com and matthias.galle@xrce.xerox.com .
Ideally, you will also include in your CV people we can contact for
letters of recommendation.

[DMANET] First CfP: 4th International Workshop on Euler Diagrams (July 2014)
Dear colleague, apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ED 2014 Call For Papers: 4th International Workshop on Euler Diagrams,
July 28, 2014
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**Co-Located with Diagrams 2014 and VL/HCC 2014 in Melbourne, Australia **
ED 2014: http://www.diagrams-conference.org/2014/ED2014
Diagrams 2014: http://www.diagrams-conference.org/2014
VL/HCC 2014: https://sites.google.com/site/vlhcc2014/
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Euler diagrams represent relationships between sets, including
intersection, containment, and disjointness. These diagrams have become
the foundations of various visual languages and have notably facilitated
the modelling of, and logical reasoning about, complex systems. Over the
years, they have been extensively used in areas such as biosciences,
business, criminology and national security to intuitively visualize
relationships and relative cardinalities of sets. This widespread
adoption has allowed analysis of complex collections of data.
The workshop will cover all aspects of Euler diagram research,
including, but not limited to:
Theoretical Advances: drawability, layouts, logic, reasoning,
Software Support: diagram generation, automated reasoning, data
exploration,
Real-World Applications: system modelling, information visualization,
education,
Cognition and Perceptual Principles: readability, aesthetics and
evaluation, including comparison to other representations.
Recently, there have been significant advances in all of the above
areas. This workshop of peer-reviewed submissions will afford the
growing Euler diagrams community the opportunity to present and discuss
new research, and share multi-interdisciplinary expertise. We envisage
that this will stimulate collaborations on current and future research
needs. This will be the second time the workshop has run as part of the
Diagrams conference series and the fourth Euler diagrams workshop (after
successful workshops in 2012, 2004 and 2005). The workshop will bring
together researchers with diverse backgrounds, from both academia and
industry including those with expertise in mathematic, computer science,
artificial intelligence, information design, visualization,
human-computer interaction, as well as end-users from various
application area.
We solicit submissions on the topics mentioned above, in the following
forms:
full papers (15 pages), consisting of:
- original research
- surveys
short papers (7 pages), consisting of:
- systems descriptions
- software demonstrations
- position statements
- original research contributions
All submissions should be in Springer's LNCS format. The proceedings
will be published by CEUR. We plan to organise a special issue of a
journal for extended versions of the best papers.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
IMPORTANT DATES
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Abstract submission (optional): April 21st
Paper submission: April 28th
Notification: May 27th
Although abstract submission is optional, authors are strongly

Call for papers:
Slowly but steadily the Internet of Things (IoT) is penetrating and transforming our lives. The first stage of the IoT evolution consisted in the deployment of RFID tags for facilitating routing, taking inventory and loss prevention of goods. After that we witnessed the first wave of RFID and sensor network integration toward vertical-market applications. Nowadays, new generations of RFID tags, in particular active RFID tags, often include built-in sensing capabilities. Whereas, applications based on sensor networks often require means for unique identification and discovery of objects, which are monitored by the sensor network. The convergence of sensing and identification technologies, together with communication and computation systems, enables us to gain impressive awareness about the state of the real world and will drastically change the way we interact with our environment. Urban planning, smart cities, intelligent shopping, smart meters, home automation, security and surveillance, industrial applications like process industry automation, supply chain, smart product management and agricultural applications are examples of potential applications for real-world systems. Even though the advent of the IPv6/6LoWPAN protocol suite solved several technical issues, many challenges are still open in the research and development communities concerning the choice of communication paradigms, architectures and technology.
The main focus of this workshop is on technologies, applications and paradigms of the IoT that are already deployed or are under investigation and that belong to the second stage of the IoT evolution.
The next step in the evolution of the IoT is its characterization as the underlying technological layer needed to shape and substantiate higher layer concepts such as semantic web and personalization. In fact, the IoT is the enabling technology to allow virtual and physical worlds to converge in what has already been defined as Web 3.0. If, currently, the IoT is the most suited companion of blogging, podcasting, tagging and social networking, we can imagine that its evolution will foster the rise of statistical, machine-constructed semantic tags and algorithms through the construction and exploitation of semantic databases empowered by distributed and cloud computing. The integration of the IoT with semantic databases, capable of delivering accurate information about the nature and the state of every physical object will introduce a staggering amount of new applications opportunities as well as potentially lead to an ultimate "Big brother scenario". Therefore, a particular interest will have to be given to appropriate security and privacy control mechanisms.
The secondary focus of this workshop is on IoT vision and perspective towards Web 3.0.
IoTIP features two tracks:
- Current ideas: for technical works currently under investigation;
- Future perspectives: for vision papers envisaging possible future technologies, paradigms and applications for IoT.
Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to:
- IoT paradigms, architectures, applications and technologies
- IoT systems and components
- IoT for semantic web and personalization
- Tools for developing IoT applications
- Blogging, Podcasting, Tagging and Social networking through the IoT
- Cloud vs distributed computing for the IoT
- Security and privacy control mechanisms
- Performance assessment and management (QoS, scalability, reliability, etc)
- PHY layer, Spectrum management for IoT radio communications
- MAC protocols (e.g., scheduling, power control etc.) for IoT
- Mobility management
- Naming, address management and End-to-End Addressability
- Object, device and service management
- RFID, sensors, actuator technologies
- Middleware
- Sustainable design and technologies (e.g. energy-efficiency)
- Test-beds and field trials
- Standardization and regulatory issues
Submission guidelines :
Authors are invited to submit original unpublished manuscripts that demonstrate current research on IoTIP research topics. Standard IEEE conference templates for LaTeX/Word formats can be found at: http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html .
The submission link will be available soon on the website of the workshop: http://iotip2014.hds.utc.fr
All submissions should be written in English using 10 point font and be six (8) printed pages long maximum using 10 point font and including figures and tables. The papers should be submitted to one of the two tracks:
- Current ideas: for technical works currently under investigation;
- Future perspectives: for vision papers envisaging possible future technologies, paradigms and applications for IoT.
Authors must suggest their preferred track for their paper at the time of submission. The workshop chairs, however, reserve the right to switch papers between tracks if they deem them a better fit for another track.
Extended versions of selected papers will be considered for publication in IEEE IoT Journal ( http://iot.ieee.org/journal )
Please note that the proceedings of this workshop will appear in IEEEXplore and will be included in DCOSS conference proceedings.

************************************************************************
Aims & Scope
The HM Workshops are intended to be an international forum for
researchers in the area of design, analysis, and experimental
evaluation of metaheuristics. Metaheuristics, such as simulated
annealing, evolutionary algorithms, tabu search, ant colony
optimization, scatter search and iterated local search, are
considered state-of-the-art methods for many problems. In
recent years, however, it has become evident that the
concentration on a sole metaheuristic is rather restrictive. A
skilled combination of concepts from different optimization
techniques can provide a more efficient behavior and a higher
flexibility when dealing with real-world and large-scale
problems.
Hybrid Metaheuristics are such techniques for optimization that
combine different metaheuristics or integrate AI/OR techniques
into metaheuristics. Previously organized Workshops were held
in Ischia Island (HM 2013), Vienna (HM 2010), Udine (HM 2009),
Malaga (HM 2008), Dortmund (HM 2007), Gran Canaria (HM 2006),
Barcelona (HM 2005), and València (HM 2004).
HM2014 is organized as a non-profit event.
************************************************************************
Topics of Interest
Contributions solicited cover a variety of topics including but
not limited to:
- Novel combinations of components from different metaheuristics
- Hybridization of metaheuristics and AI/OR techniques
- Low-level hybridization
- High-level hybridization, portfolio techniques, expert systems
- Cooperative search
- Automated parameter tuning
- Empirical and statistical comparison
- Theoretical aspects of hybridization
- Parallelization
- Software libraries
************************************************************************
Paper Submission
Authors are invited to submit a full paper describing original,
unpublished research with at most 15 pages (in LNCS style).
Proofs omitted due to space constraints must be put into an
appendix to be read by the program committee members at their
discretion.
Electronic submissions should be formatted in pdf. Simultaneous
submission to other conferences or workshops with published
proceedings is not allowed.
The proceedings will be published in Springer's LNCS series.

Call for papers
Wireless sensor and actor networks (WSANs) are the confluence point where the traditional fields of wireless sensor networks (WSNs), robot networks and control theory meet. In WSAN, nodes collaborate to accomplish distributed sensing and actuation tasks. Leveraged by the control and mobility of actors, the networking process and applications embrace a whole new set of possibilities. Actors may deploy, repair and relocate sensors to improve coverage, build routes and fix network partition to ensure data communication, change network topology to shape routing patterns and balance energy consumption, and respond to reported events in a timely and effective manner. The benefits are limited only by imagination. As an emerging field, WSANs are in need of new networking techniques, by which they can fully exploit their particularities and potentials. WiSARN aims to bring together state-of-the-art contributions on the design, specification and implementation of architectures, algorithms and protocols for current and future applications of WSAN.
Topic of Interest
Original, unpublished contributions are solicited in ALL aspects of WSAN and traditional wireless sensor networks, robot networks, as well as robotics and automation. Possible topics include, but are not limited to:
* Autonomous sensor networks
* Emergent behavior in WSAN
* Modeling and simulation of WSAN
* WSAN architectural and operational models
* Optimal control of networked robots
* Robot advanced motion control by WSAN
* Modeling and control of flying robots
* Autonomic and self-organizing coordination and communication
* Sensor-robot and robot-robot coordination
* Energy-efficient and real-time communication protocols
* Bandwidth-efficient and delay-tolerant communication protocols
* Distributed control and management in WSAN
* Neighborhood discovery and mobility management

[DMANET] CFP: The Second International Workshop on Vehicular Traffic Management for Smart Cities (VTM 2014)
Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Second International Workshop on Vehicular Traffic Management for Smart
Cities (VTM 2014) (http://csserver.ucd.ie/~sdjahel/VTM2014/VTM.html)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To be held in conjunction with The 2014 IEEE 79th Vehicular Technology
Conference (VTC2014-Spring), 18-21 May 2014, Seoul, Korea
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CALL FOR PAPERS
---------------
The rapid growth of the number of cars on the roads has created a
plethora of
challenges for road traffic management authorities such as, traffic
congestion, increasing number of accidents, air pollution, etc. Over the
last
decade, researchers from both industry and academia have focused their
efforts
on exploiting advances in sensing and communication technologies to make
the
existing road Traffic Management Systems (TMSs) more efficient.
Their main goal is to improve the traveler's safety, shorten the travel
time
and reduce the environmental impact.
Road traffic management for smart cities involves monitoring the actual
traffic situation in real-time (including volumes, speeds, incidents, etc.)
and then controlling or influencing the flow using that information in
order
to reduce traffic congestion, deal efficiently with incidents and provide
accurate and reliable traffic information and prediction to both drivers
and
authorities. Moreover, it is foreseen that future smart cities will provide
faster and secure emergency service delivery by granting proper traffic
privileges to emergency vehicles.
This workshop seeks to bring together researchers, scientists and engineers
from various research communities, as well as practitioners and
administrators
who face the challenges of traffic management in smart cities. They are all
welcome to present and discuss their latest research findings, ideas,
simulation tools and applications at the 2014 VTM workshop.
Topics of Interest
------------------
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
• Vehicular traffic management
• Vehicle-to-Vehicle (V2V) and Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) protocols
for smart cities
• Data sensing and gathering techniques in urban environments

• Data fusion and integration for traffic management systems
(techniques, algorithms, data types, etc.)
• Distributed simulations for large scale urban environments
• Route planning protocols and road traffic prediction mechanisms
• Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), Wireless Mesh Networks (WMNs) and VANETs

[DMANET] 15 fully funded PhD student positions in Helsinki
The Helsinki Doctoral Education Network in Information and
Communications Technology (HICT) is a collaborative doctoral education
network hosted jointly by Aalto University and the University of
Helsinki, the two leading universities within this area in Finland. The
network involves at present 55 professors and over 200 doctoral
students, and the participating units graduate altogether more than 40
new doctors each year.
The activities of HICT are structured along six research area
specific tracks:
- Algorithms and machine learning
- Creative technologies
- Life science informatics
- Networks, networked systems and services
- Software and service engineering and systems
- User centered information technology
The quality of research and education in both HICT universities is
world-class, but the education is still practically free as there are no
tuition fees in the Finnish university system. Helsinki has been ranked
as the World's Most Livable City (Monocle, 2011), and is the capital
city of Finland, which is in the top 10 of the most highly educated
nations in the world (OECD, 2013), and has been selected as the world's
best country to live in (Newsweek, 2010).
The participating units of HICT have currently 15 fully funded positions
available for exceptional doctoral students. For more information and
application instructions, see "http://www.hict.fi/".
