(sorry for cross postings) ************************************* NUMTA Special Session on High Performance Computing in Modelling and Simulation (NUMTA2019-HPCMS) TH Le Castella Village Le Castella - Isola Capo Rizzuto Crotone, Italy DEADLINE (strict) for One-page Abstract submission: March 18, 2019 ************************************* CFP Model development for the simulation of the evolution of artificial and natural systems is essential for the advancement of Science. The increasing power of computers has allowed to considerably extend the application of computing methodologies in research and industry, but also to the quantitative study of complex phenomena. This has permitted a broad application of numerical methods for differential equation systems (e.g., FEM, FDM, etc.) on one hand, and the application of alternative computational paradigms, such as Cellular Automata, Genetic Algorithms, Neural networks, Swarm Intelligence, etc., on the other. These latter have demonstrated their effectiveness for modelling purposes when traditional simulation methodologies have proven to be impracticable. An important mission of the HPCMS Special Session within the NUMTA 2019 3rd International Conference and Summer School is to provide a platform for a multidisciplinary community composed of scholars, researchers, developers, educators, practitioners and experts from world leading Universities, Institutions, Agencies and Companies in Computational Science, and thus in the High Performance Computing for Modelling and Simulation field. The session intent is to offer an opportunity to express and confront views on trends, challenges, and state-of-the art in diverse application fields, such as engineering, physics, chemistry, biology, geology, hydrology, medicine, ecology, traffic control, economy, etc. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: - High-performance computing in computational science: intra-disciplinary and multi-disciplinary research applications - Complex systems modelling and simulation - Cellular Automata, Genetic Algorithms, Neural networks, Swarm Intelligence implementations - Integrated approach to optimization and simulation - MPI, OpenMP, GPGPU applications in Computational Science - Optimization algorithms, modelling techniques related to optimization in Computational Science - High-performance Software developed to solve science (e.g., biological, physical, earth science and social), engineering, medicine, and humanities problems - Hardware approaches of high performance computing in modeling and simulation Submission The authors are invited to submit their one-page abstract before March 18, 2019 directly to the organizers of the special session (William Spataro spataro(a)unical.it) (please include "HPCMS - NUMTA abstract submission" in the email subject header). The abstract should be also submitted EasyChair system https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=numta2019 (please follow the EasyChair hints for the HPCMS session to correctly prepare and submit your abstract). In case of acceptance, the authors can submit their full papers (end of May) as reported on the NUMTA main web page ( http://si.dimes.unical.it/~yaro/numta2019/index.php) Accepted papers will be published in a LNCS volume after the Conference.

02 Mar '19

[Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this Call for Paper (CFP).] ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ IEEE EdgeCom2019 - The 5th IEEE International Conference on Edge Computing and Scalable Cloud - June 21–23, 2019 Paris, France http://www.cloud-conf.net/cscloud/2019/ssc/index.html +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ INTRODUCTION With edge devices (e.g. mobile phones, wearable devices, and IoT devices) are universally used and become more powerful, edge computing has evolved to a new computing paradigm where computing tasks are completed closer to data sources (i.e. at edge) rather than in a centralized location (e.g. in cloud). Compared with cloud computing, edge computing has many advantages: 1) Services can be done without network access. 2) Users can choose not to upload private data in exchange of cloud services. 3) Real-time service with extremely low latency is possible without the overhead of moving data to the cloud. However, the restricted resources (e.g., computation, DRAM space, and battery) of edge devices bring many new challenges to edge computing as well. IEEE Edgecom 2019 provides a forum for researchers and engineers from academia and industry to present innovative research and best practices in edge computing, discuss the opportunities and challenges that arise from rethinking cloud computing architectures and embracing edge computing. TOPIC IEEE Edgecom 2019 welcomes contributions from diverse perspectives of edge computing, which include (but are not limited to) the following topics: - Edge computing in IoT - Security and fault tolerance for embedded or ubiquitous systems - Privacy protection in edge computing - Software/Algorithm optimization for edge computing - Cyber security in mobile embedded systems - Edge computing infrastructure - Workload characterization and analysis of applications running on edge devices - Digital forensics and privacy issues in cloud computing - Cyber monitoring approaches - Case studies of real-world edge computing applications - Monitoring and diagnosis tools for edge computing - Social engineering, insider threats, advance spear phishing - On-device artificial intelligence - Heterogeneous clouds and vulnerabilities - Secure methods for heterogeneous cloud resource sharing - Architecture support for edge computing - Cloud-based audio/video streaming techniques - Energy efficient edge computing - Case studies for cyber security applications - Cloud-based real-time multimedia techniques - New attack methods and applications - Green cloud computing - Quality of Service (QoS) improvements techniques - Edge-Cloud coordinated computing - Cloud-based sensor network and security issues PAPER SUBMISSION Prospective authors are invited to submit papers via Easychair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ieeeedgecom2019) The submissions should be formatted with the IEEE 8.5 x 11 inches two-column format with 10-12 point font. Detailed formatting and submission instructions are available at the conference website (http://www.cloud-conf.net/cscloud/2019/ssc/submission.html) IMPORTANT DATES Paper submission: March 15, 2019 (extended) Notification of acceptance: April 15, 2019 Final manuscript submission: May 15, 2019 For further information, please contact: han.qiu(a)telecom-paristech.fr.
