*The 16th IEEE International Conference on Advanced and Trusted Computing (IEEE ATC-19)* August 19th-23rd 2019, Leicester, UK Website: http://www.smart-world.org/2019/atc *Introduction* Computing systems are growing in capability and complexity including hardware, software, communications, networks, platforms, services, etc. Advanced computing aims to discover, develop, and deploy novel computing and networking systems. At the same time, computing must be trustworthy to engender confidence that systems will remain secure and available. Trust/distrust relationships embedded in computing systems and networks are key factors to enable dynamic interactions and cooperation of various users and services. Trusted computing aims at making these systems and services available, predictable, accountable, controllable, assessable, sustainable, dependable, persistent, and secure. ATC conferences have taken a leading role in addressing these challenges and achieving practical advanced computing systems with truly trustworthy services. Started in 2005, the series of ATC conferences have been held at Nagasaki (Japan), Vienna (Austria), Three Gorges (China), Hong Kong (China), Oslo (Norway), Brisbane (Australia), Xi‚Äôan (China), Banff (Canada), Fukuoka (Japan), Vietri sul Mare (Italy), Bali (Indonesia), Beijing (China), Toulouse (France), San Francisco Bay Area (USA), and Guangzhou (China).

CFP- 6G special issue - IEEE Vehicular Technology Magazine
by Gozalvez Sempere, Javier Manuel 18 Nov '18

CALL FOR PAPERS - Special Issue on 6G: What is Next? - IEEE Vehicular Technology Magazine (Impact Factor: 6.038) We are undoubtedly witnessing the transition into the 4th industrial revolution. Societies are becoming ever more data- centric and data-dependent. The increasing data-dependence of future economies poses a severe challenge on mitigating the digital divide to avoid an unequal distribution of wealth. Radical automation of industrial manufacturing processes will drive productivity. Autonomous systems are hitting our roads, oceans and air space. Millions of sensors will be embedded into cities, homes and food production environments, and new systems operated by artificial intelligence which often will reside in new local 'clouds' and 'fog' environments will create a plethora of new applications. Communications networks resemble the nervous system of these new smart system paradigms. 5G made a significant step towards developing a low latency tactile access network, and by providing new additional wireless nerve tracts, i.e., data pipes. With the increase of large autonomy of systems, the protection of 'nervous system' against malicious attacks becomes increasing important. Moreover, the system autonomy and the large number of distributed sensor systems demand the simultaneous integration of new energy harvesting concepts. The move from personalized communication to machine-type communication demands radically new communication network architectures. The objective of this special issue is to define the framework of the 6th generation of communication networks, its services and break-through technologies. We are soliciting original contributions that have not been published and are not currently under consideration by any other journals. Particular emphasis is placed on radically new concepts and ideas which are not just an evolution of 5G technologies. The topics of interest include, but not limited to: - Key drivers and 6G requirements - New wireless backhaul and fronthaul solutions - New security concepts - Integration of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning into new wireless systems solutions and applications innovative applications - New network architectures - Concepts and technologies to harness new spectrum - New energy harvesting technologies, and integration into mobile network architectures - Techniques to improve energy efficiency - New approaches to simultaneously increase peak data rates and data density not only in urban environments - New system architectures stemming from the combination of computing, communication and storage. - Breakthrough technologies and concepts Submissions should clearly identify how they relate to topics under consideration in this special issue. Contributions describing an overall working system and reporting real world deployment experiences are particularly of interest. Submitted papers should contain state-of-the-art research material presented in a tutorial or survey style. Manuscript format must adhere to the IEEE VT Magazine submission guidelines: http://www.ieeevtc.org/vtmagazine/submission.php Authors should submit a PDF version of their complete manuscripts to http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/vtm-ieee Submission Deadline: 15 Dec 2018 Guest Editors: Harald Haas (h.haas(a)ed.ac.uk) The University of Edinburgh, U.K. Xiaohu You (xhyu(a)seu.edu.cn) Southeast University, China Jaafar Elmirghani (J.M.H.Elmirghani(a)leeds.ac.uk) University of Leeds, U.K. Klaus David (david(a)uni-kassel.de) Kassel University, Germany Editor in Chief: Javier Gozalvez (j.gozalvez(a)umh.es) Universidad Miguel Hernandez de Elche, Spain

Call For Paper: a Special Issue of Information Sciences on Big Data Privacy

Call For Paper: a Special Issue of Information Sciences on Big Data Privacy The massive deployment of networking, communications and computing technologies has brought us into the era of big data. Huge volumes of data are today generated and collected due to human-computer interaction, device-device communications, data outsourcing, environment sensing and behavior monitoring. Many such data often encode privacy-sensitive information related to individuals and support the inference of a large variety of privacy-sensitive information through the use of data analytics, data mining and machine learning. Thus, preserving privacy in the context of big data is a critical requirement in cyber-space. Obviously, preserving privacy of big data is even more challenging when dealing with many emerging technologies, e.g., Internet of Things (IoT), cloud computing, edge computing, crowdsourcing and crowdsensing, social net-working, and next generation communication systems. Although technologies and theories are widely studied and applied to ensure data privacy in recent years, existing solutions are still inef-ficient, especially for big data. Preserving privacy of big data introduces additional challenges with regard to computational complexity, efficiency, adaptability, personality, flexibility, fi-ne-graininess and scalability. Big data privacy promises many novel solutions and at the same time, many challenges should also be overcome. This special issue aims to bring together researchers and practitioners to discuss various aspects of big data privacy, explore key theories, investigate significant algorithms, protocols and schemes and innovate new solutions for overcoming major challenges in this significant research area. Topics include but are not limited to: •Theoretical aspects of big data privacy •Privacy-preserving computing models and techniques •Fine-grained and personalized privacy preservation •Privacy auditing and provenance management on big data •Adaptive privacy preservation on big data •Scalability of big data privacy protection •Big data privacy protection based on blockchain •Secure big data computation and verification •Privacy-preserving big data search and query •Privacy preservation in big data fusion •Privacy-preserving machine learning and data mining •Privacy digitalization and computation •Economic studies on big data privacy Important Dates Paper submission due:December 1st, 2018 (extended) Notification of decision:February 1st, 2019 Revision due:May 1st, 2019 Acceptance notification:July 1st, 2019 Approximate publication date:Late 2019, subject to journal publication schedules Submission Format Author guidelines for preparation of manuscript can be found at www.elsevier.com/locate/ins Submission Guidelines All manuscripts and any supplementary material should be submitted through Elsevier Editorial System (EES).
