Dear Colleagues, [Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message] -----------------Call for Papers———————————————— Workshop on Networking protocols and standards for mobility (NPSM) Co-located with ICNP 2024 at Charleroi, Belgium October 28, 2024 https://icnp24.cs.ucr.edu/assets/markdown/NPSM.html ------------------------------------------------------------------- The workshop on Networking protocols and standards for mobility (NPSM) Co-organized by: IEEE ICNP'24: The 32st IEEE International Conference on Network Protocols<https://icnp24.cs.ucr.edu/> The papers will be published in IEEE Xplore as part of the ICNP proceedings Overview The emergence of vehicular networks has revolutionized the transportation sector, promising enhanced safety, efficiency, and connectivity. However, as the deployment of these networks becomes more widespread, it brings forth a myriad of challenges and opportunities in terms of communication protocols. Hence, we propose a workshop focusing on network protocols for vehicles, aimed at fostering collaboration between industrial stakeholders and academic researchers. This workshop will serve as a platform for industrial experts to elucidate the requirements and challenges encountered during the deployment of new standards in vehicular networks. Additionally, the workshop will provide a forum for academic researchers to showcase their latest advancements in the field, offering innovative solutions to address the identified challenges. By facilitating dialogue and knowledge exchange between these two communities, the workshop aims to accelerate the development and adoption of robust and efficient network protocols tailored for vehicular environments. Call for Papers We welcome submissions of original research, work-in-progress, and proof of concepts describing original ideas and presenting new directions, covering a broad spectrum of topics related to vehicular network protocols, including, but not limited to: * Evolution of communication technologies for vehicular networks (including in-vehicle communications); * Transition from legacy systems to next-generation protocols in vehicular networks; * Architectures and protocols for Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), including traffic management, collision avoidance, and cooperative driving; * Coexistence and interference mitigation strategies between different radio systems within vehicular networks; * Network as sensors: Utilization of vehicular networks as a sensor network for environmental monitoring, traffic management, and infrastructure health monitoring, for example; * Satellite networks: Integration of satellite communication technologies into vehicular networks for global coverage and seamless connectivity; * Resilient connectivity, dependable, and real-time communications: Techniques and protocols to ensure reliable and low-latency communication in challenging vehicular environments; * Trust and privacy: Security mechanisms and privacy-preserving techniques for safeguarding vehicular communication and data exchange; * Energy requirements of communications: Energy-efficient communication protocols and strategies for reducing the energy consumption of vehicular networks; * Transport protocols for vehicular networks: Design and optimization of transport layer protocols tailored for vehicular communication scenarios.

Dear Colleagues, [Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message] -----------------Call for Papers-------------------------------- The 10th International Symposium on IoT and Cloud Continuum (IoT2C) Vienna, Austria [Hybrid], 19-21 August 2024 http://ficloud.org/iot2c2024/ ---------------------------------------------------------------- Call for Papers: Cloud continuum enables a seamless integration of distinct cloud services and models in order to encapsulate the growing adoption of cloud computing by businesses and organizations. The services and capabilities of cloud continuum are unified and supported by advances in communication networks (e.g., 5G network). They offer edge services for IoT devices such as smart sensors that generate large volume of data and that require connectivity with low latency. The objectives are to simplify the integration and development of modern cloud-enabled IoT applications; e.g., share resources, support extreme workload, efficiently process big data and place data and compute power closer to places where they are needed more. The symposium aims to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners in order to discuss ideas and share knowledge on various issues related to IoT and cloud continuum. Topics of the symposium include (but not limited to): - IoT and cloud continuum models - Integration and collaboration - Network models and design - Software systems and microservices - Big data processing and management - AI and machine learning applications - Network communication protocols - 5G and SDN services - Fault tolerance and reliability - Performance evaluation and modelling - Edge, Fog and IoT continuum - SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS models - Ecosystem: IoT, Edge,Fog, Cloud - QoS in IoT and cloud continuum - Security, trust and privacy - Service selection and provisioning - Continuum benchmarking - Modelling and simulation - Business models and standards - Service level agreements - Applications and case studies - Legal and ethical aspects Important Dates: Submission Deadline: 31 May 2024 Authors Notification: 10 June 2024 Final Manuscript Due: 20 June 2024 Submission Guidelines: Authors are requested to submit papers reporting original research results and experience.

Routine Monitoring of Source Address Validation Deployment by Operators
by Brandon 26 Apr '24

26 Apr '24

Dear MANRS and RIPE members, My name is Gaoxing Zhang, and I am a computer enthusiast from the High School Competition Team at Hangzhou Dongfang High School. Recently, I've observed that although MANRS requirements mandate Source Address Validation(SAV) for its members, some operators have not fully implemented this practice in their networks. Therefore, I propose to routinely monitor the deployment status of SAV across ASNs to ensure compliance with MANRS guidelines and enhance network security. I am currently unaware of any existing projects with a similar focus. It has come to my attention that operators at IXP facilities, even including major entities like Google, fail to enable SAV. This issue also persists in-home broadband services obtained through PPPoE, which could lead to Infected Home Routers becoming sources of DDoS Attacks and Are Difficult to Trace. In my tests, I announced my IP thought tunnel on a different operator’s network and configured the Next-hop Address to a home broadband gateway obtained via PPPoE. The results indicated that Source Address Validation by China Telecom’s home broadband is only partially implemented in Mainland China, with most IP addresses from the region being accessible through this method. Here are some methods I have considered for ongoing monitoring: 1. Announce a new IP block upstream to receive inbound traffic. 2. Deploy a tunnel on the device connected to the ISP being tested, which will link to the upstream receiving the inbound traffic. 3. The IP block will not be announced to the ISP being tested but only to the upstream used to receive inbound traffic. Check the connectivity to major public DNS servers when the Next-hop address is set to the ISP being tested. 4. If it is reachable, it indicates that the ISP’s device lacks Source Address Validation. I plan to deploy test equipment at major IXPs (currently seeking equipment sponsors) and access points for some residential ISPs (with the assistance of volunteers). The testing environment will be a Linux-based VM, utilizing Python to switch Next-hop based on test targets and assess the accessibility to major public DNS servers, as well as to upload data to a backend system. I would really appreciate it if you could share your valuable suggestions or feedback on this initiative.
