Preparing the Camera Ready Version

• Implement the reviewer comments well as they will make your paper much better.
• Deadline: March 16, 2018.
• Submission via JEMS (https://jems.sbc.org.br/home.cgi?c=2940).
• You have to submit:
  • Camera ready version of your paper AS RETURNED by PDFexpress. It has to be this version as it is signed by PDFexpress. See http://noms2018.ieee-noms.org/content/authors.
    • Full Paper = 6 pages + references.

What to prepare for the Presentation in Teipei?

• Make sure you are registered for the workshops (http://noms2018.ieee-noms.org/node/12).

As author of a full paper please prepare:

• Presentation of 20 minutes + 5 minutes QnA.
• An A0 or A1 poster for the poster session to have a reminder on your talk for even more discussion. In case you do not want to take the chance to make an extra poster bring your 6 key slides printed to hang them on the board.

As author of a short paper / poster paper please prepare:

• A Presentation of your Poster in 10 minutes. We will all walk to your poster and you explain it.
• An A0 or A1 poster for the poster session.

Call for Papers

The Internet of Things (IoT) emerges as a major architectural paradigm for achieving machine-to-machine (M2M) communication. It is estimated that by 2025 there will be more than 75 billion internetworked IoT devices. The fundamental principle behind IoT is the concept of a “resource” (or a “thing”), that serves as an abstraction of a basic unit that interacts with its environment, and is capable of providing services, data and control elements to other internetworked resources. Many IoT scenarios can be characterized by lots of (small) traffic, lots of entities, strong heterogeneity in links and device capabilities, strong distribution, and highly sensitive data. Individual nodes have limited compute resources and on-device storage (e.g., consider Raspberry Pi single board computers). Their connectivity is often constrained by factors such as the presence of NATs and firewalls, power constraints, and intermittent network access. Although we already see the benefits provided by special purpose IoT devices the true potential will only be realised when we can use large numbers of distributed devices as part of a much larger federated service. Management paradigms that foster such a development are fog and edge computing.

Managing IoT-based systems requires enabling the orchestration of things by managing resources that provide a) a hardware interface connecting the IT world with the real world, and b) software services including gateways to Internet data sources, reasoning on IoT data, and running orchestration applications. Key management challenges involve provisioning, configuration, deployment, and management of federated Internet-scale systems. Though being an evolution from classical management, managing IoT things is still disruptive as classical assumptions about connectivity, compute resources, or usage patterns do not hold anymore. Management patterns that are tailored for Decentralized Orchestration and Management of Distributed Heterogeneous Things are still missing. In the DOMINOS workshop we want to address the challenges that emerge from establishing management of the IoT including:

Paper submissions must present original, unpublished research or experiences. Only original papers that have not been published or submitted for publication elsewhere can be submitted. Each submission must be written in English, accompanied by a 75 to 200 words abstract that clearly outlines the scope and contributions of the paper.

There is a length limitation of 6 pages (including title, abstract, all figures, tables, and references) for regular papers, and 4 pages for short papers describing Work in Progress (WiP). Submissions must be in IEEE 2-column style. Self-plagiarized papers will be rejected without further review. Authors should submit their papers via JEMS:

https://jems.sbc.org.br/home.cgi?c=2940.

All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed. Accepted and presented papers will be published in the conference proceedings and submitted to IEEE Xplore.

For the regular papers we plan 20 minutes presentations, for the WiP we plan to have a 10 minutes pitch in front of the paper plus a poster session directly after with lively discussions on your ongoing works.
