/_*CALL FOR PAPERS*_/

/The International Teletraffic Congress (ITC) 35, to be held October
3-5, 2023 at Politecnico di Torino, Italy, is the 35th edition of this
international flagship congress in the field of networking science and
practice. ITC was founded back in 1955 by enthusiastic scientists and
engineers who were willing to deploy networks in a holistic way. Since
then, it has established a multi-decade tradition as the primary forum
for presenting and discussing the latest technical advances in the broad
areas of teletraffic models, network systems, and measurements.
ITC 35 solicits cutting-edge papers spanning both theory and
experimentation in all areas of networking, ranging from traffic
engineering and control with application also to emerging
softwarized/virtualized network paradigms, up to innovative wireless
scenarios brought about by the emergence of B5G and IoT systems. ITC 35
especially encourages original contributions which bridge the gap
between performance modeling and real-life operational aspects,
including works which leverage measurement data to provide a better
understanding of the wired and wireless networks' operation under
realistic conditions. A selection of the best papers presented at the
conference will be fast tracked to Performance Evaluation and Computer
Networks journals after the conference.
ITC 35 will offer a number of _*student travel grants*_ to support
full-time students for attending._*

SCOPE
======

DPM is an annual international workshop covering research in data
privacy management. Organizations are increasingly concerned
about the privacy of information that they manage (as witnessed,
for example, by lawsuits filed against organizations for
violating the privacy of customer's data). Thus, the management
of privacy-sensitive information is very critical and important
for every organization.

This poses several challenging problems, such as how to translate the
high-level business goals into system-level privacy policies,
administration of privacy-sensitive data, privacy preserving data
integration and engineering, privacy preserving access control
mechanisms, information-oriented security, and query execution on
privacy-sensitive data for partial answers. Starting from these
observations, the aim of DPM is to discuss and exchange ideas related
to data privacy management. We invite papers from researchers and
practitioners working in privacy, security, trustworthy data systems
and related areas to submit their original papers in this workshop.
Submissions by PhD students as well as controversial ideas are
encouraged. Case studies (successful or not) are also encouraged.

TOPICS
========

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

- Privacy in Machine Learning
- Privacy Information Management
- Privacy Policy-based Infrastructures and Architectures
- Privacy-oriented Access Control Languages and Models
- Privacy in Trust Management
- Privacy in Cryptocurrencies
- Privacy Data Integration
- Privacy Risk Assessment and Assurance
- Privacy Services
- Privacy Policy Analysis
- Data Protection Regulations in Practice
- Cryptographic Protocols for Privacy
- Query Execution over Privacy Sensitive Data
- Privacy Preserving Data Mining

[DMANET] [Scheduling seminar] Vikram Tiwari (Vanderbilt Uni) | June 7 | Surgery Scheduling: Research and Practice

Dear scheduling researcher,

We are delighted to announce the talk given by Vikram Tiwari (Vanderbilt
University).
The title is "Surgery Scheduling: Research and Practice".

The seminar will take place on Zoom on Wednesday, June 7 at 13:00 UTC.
Join Zoom Meeting
https://cesnet.zoom.us/j/96890046173?pwd=bjYzLzkzSUJMU1ZCMWhka2h4RjRqdz09
Meeting ID: 968 9004 6173
Passcode: 999261

You can follow the seminar online or offline on our Youtube channel as well:
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUoCNnaAfw5NAntItILFn4A

The abstract follows.
Scheduling of surgeries is a complex process that involves simultaneous
scheduling of not only several resources (staff, room, equipment,
supplies, instruments), but also building flexibility in
capacity-reservation policies to accommodate most types of patient
classes. In the case of trauma centers this complexity increases even
more due to the need for dynamic rescheduling of elective surgeries as
emergency surgeries arrive randomly. In practice, these issues are
tackled every day in a 'non-optimal / heuristic' way. Recent research in
this area has shown the potential of implementing modified priority
rules. In contrast to trauma centers, ambulatory surgery centers only
perform elective surgeries and have a lower cost structure. Their
profitability is therefore dependent upon efficient use of capacity.
Recent research has modeled these as Hybrid Flow Shops and solved the
capacity planning problem using easy to implement heuristics. This talk
will also discuss some new avenues of operating room scheduling that
have not yet been researched by academics.

The next talk in our series will be:
Tami Tamir (Reichman Uni) | June 21 | Scheduling with Machine-Dependent
Priority Lists.

*Keywords:*Combinatorial optimization, production planning,
decomposition approaches, semiconductor manufacturing.

*Objectives of the PhD thesis :*

In semiconductor manufacturing, operational production planning is the
bridge between tactical production planning, which defines the delivery
and production start plans, and local scheduling decisions. Operational
production planning considers the detailed characteristics of the
manufacturing facility (product routes, machines, operation eligibility,
etc.) to define production targets to manage control flows. This
function is currently provided by a homemade tool, whose heuristic
approach is running out of steam. A recent PhD thesis with Mines
Saint-Etienne proposed a novel optimization approach, and recent studies
have shown the possibility of extending this approach to industrial data
from the Crolles300 manufacturing facility. The objective of the thesis
is to build on this work to propose a new production planning approach
to provide production plans that consider the constraints and optimize
various indicators such as the linearity of the fab, the control of the
cycle times, the respect of the delivery dates, the use of the machines,
the satisfaction  of time constraints, etc.

*Candidate profile:*

Applicants must have a Master Degree (or equivalent) in Operations
Research, Applied Mathematics, Computer Sciences or any related
discipline. Applicants should demonstrate good programming skills and a
deep knowledge in combinatorial optimization and integer programming.

*Application procedure: *

Please send your application electronically (preferably as a single pdf
file) including a detailed curriculum vitae and examination results,
plus, if available, a list of reference letters and copies of diploma,
to: Nabil ABSI (absi@emse.fr). The position will remain open until
fulfilled.

[DMANET] BigDat 2023 Summer: early registration June 19

***********************************************

7th INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL ON BIG DATA

BigDat 2023 Summer

Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain

July 17-21, 2023

https://bigdat.irdta.eu/2023su

***********************************************

Co-organized by:

University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria

Institute for Research Development, Training and Advice - IRDTA
Brussels/London

***********************************************

Early registration: June 19, 2023

***********************************************

FRAMEWORK:

BigDat 2023 Summer is part of a multi-event called Deep&Big 2023 consisting=
also of DeepLearn 2023 Summer. BigDat 2023 Summer participants will have t=
he opportunity to attend lectures in the program of DeepLearn 2023 Summer a=
s well if they are interested.

SCOPE:

BigDat 2023 Summer will be a research training event with a global scope ai=
ming at updating participants on the most recent advances in the critical a=
nd fast developing area of big data. Previous events were held in Tarragona=
, Bilbao, Bari, Timisoara, Cambridge and Ancona.

Big data is a broad field covering a large spectrum of current exciting res=
earch and industrial innovation with an extraordinary potential for a huge =
impact on scientific discoveries, health, engineering, business models, and=
society itself. Renowned academics and industry pioneers will lecture and =
share their views with the audience.

Most big data subareas will be displayed, namely foundations, infrastructur=
e, management, search and mining, analytics, security and privacy, as well =
as applications to biology and medicine, business, finance, transportation,=
online social networks, etc. Major challenges of analytics, management and=
storage of big data will be identified through 14 four-hour and a half cou=
rses and 1 keynote lecture, which will tackle the most active and promising=
topics. The organizers are convinced that outstanding speakers will attrac=
t the brightest and most motivated students. Face to face interaction and n=
etworking will be main ingredients of the event. It will be also possible t=
o fully participate in vivo remotely.

An open session will give participants the opportunity to present their own=
work in progress in 5 minutes. Moreover, there will be two special session=
s with industrial and employment profiles.

ADDRESSED TO:

Graduate students, postgraduate students and industry practitioners will be=
typical profiles of participants. However, there are no formal pre-requisi=
tes for attendance in terms of academic degrees, so people less or more adv=
anced in their career will be welcome as well. Since there will be a variet=
y of levels, specific knowledge background may be assumed for some of the c=
ourses. Overall, BigDat 2023 Summer is addressed to students, researchers a=
nd practitioners who want to keep themselves updated about recent developme=
nts and future trends. All will surely find it fruitful to listen to and di=
scuss with major researchers, industry leaders and innovators.

VENUE:

BigDat 2023 Summer will take place in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, on the At=
lantic Ocean, with a mild climate throughout the year, sandy beaches and a =
renowned carnival. The venue will be:

Instituci=C3=B3n Ferial de Canarias
Avenida de la Feria, 1
35012 Las Palmas de Gran Canaria

https://www.infecar.es/

STRUCTURE:

2 courses will run in parallel during the whole event. Participants will be=
able to freely choose the courses they wish to attend as well as to move f=
rom one to another.

Also, if interested, participants will be able to attend courses developed =
in DeepLearn 2023 Summer, which will be held in parallel and at the same ve=
nue.

Full live online participation will be possible. The organizers highlight, =
however, the importance of face to face interaction and networking in this =
kind of research training event.
