[BlackSeaCom] The 1st International Black Sea Conference on Communications and Networking - Batumi, Georgia

As the name suggests, the BlackSeaCom series of conferences will be held in the countries surrounding the Black Sea. The goal of BlackSeaCom is to bring together visionaries in academia, research labs and industry from all over the world to the shores of the Black Sea. Here they will address many of the outstanding grand challenges that exist in the areas of communication and networking while having an opportunity to explore this exciting and dynamic region that has a rich history.

The first edition of the conference will take place at the Sheraton Hotel on July 3, 4 and 5, 2013 in Batumi, Georgia--a beautiful major port city on the Eurasian Crossroad. The theme of the conference, Communication and Networking in the Land of the Golden Fleece, is fitting for the chosen venue (Georgia) to set the goal of discovery and value in our field paralleling the ancient myth of the "Golden Fleece".

We seek original completed and unpublished work not currently under review by any other journal/magazine/conference. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
  • Information theoretic analysis of wireless networks
  • Communication protocols (transport, routing, link, and physical layers)
  • Cross-layer design and optimization
  • Theoretical analysis frameworks
  • Resource management
  • Energy efficiency, resiliency, reliability, and robustness
  • Deployment scenarios and experiences
  • Infrastructures, Platforms, test beds, and software
  • Wireless networks, Ad hoc and mesh networks, Wireless sensor networks
  • Cognitive radio networks
  • Communication in challenging environments (underwater, underground, tunnels/mines, space, disasters)
  • Internet of things
  • Nano-scale networks
  • Integration of heterogeneous networks

[ADCOM] The 18th International Conference on Advanced Computing and Communications - Bangalore, India

ACCS, a partner society of the IEEE Computer Society, is a registered scientific society in India founded to provide a forum to individuals, institutions and industry to promote and disseminate their innovative and pioneering work in Computing and Communications Sciences. ADCOM, the flagship Systems Conference of the ACCS, is a major annual international meeting that attracts professionals from industry, academia and governments across the world. ADCOM is a very successful and a highly rated event that draws leading scientists and researchers in computational engineering. ADCOM 2012 focuses on the growing importance of Large Scale Systems Engineering and Virtualization will be the main theme. Virtualization emphasizes reducing and optimizing resource consumption in the march towards sustainable computing and is one of the pillars of today’s System design and deployment. The concept of Virtualization is very broad and is applied to devices, hardware platforms, operating systems, servers...

The 6th International Symposium on Wireless and Pervasive Computing (ISWPC 2011) - Hong Kong, China

Wireless pervasive computing is a rapidly growing area that has attracted significant attention due to its potential impact on the quality of life. To enable wireless pervasive computing, it is necessary to integrate technologies from the fields of distributed computing, networking, communications and signal processing. The aim of this symposium is to provide a platform for researchers in the area of wireless pervasive computing and related areas to showcase their results, launch new ideas, as well as to interact with other researchers.

[C3] The 1st International Workshop on Cognitive Coputing and Communications - California, USA

"Cognitive" design has become one of the most important features in pervasive computing fields. Typically it is based on the utilization of machine learning and artificial intelligence algorithms. Today, the sensors have been designed with smart, compressive sampling in order to reduce sensor samples even before reaching the CPU processing phase; the sensor networks have been made highly intelligent through the use of distributed machine learning mechanisms; the wireless networks have been made cognitive through cognitive radios; and many other examples. This international workshop is part of IEEE Percom 2013. It aims to bring the researchers together to exchange ideas on cognitive computing and communications (C3). We emphasize the pervasive computing applications of C3 for cognitive radios, biomedical systems, structure health monitoring, smart grid, robots, GENI, and other systems. The workshop will include around 15 presentations, posters, demos, and other res...
