WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION AND TOPICS
-------------------------------

Cloud computing is an excellent way to offload significant amounts of 
computation and data from both data centers and terminal devices, due to 
its flexibility, scalability and significant economic savings. However, 
not all applications may be offloaded to the cloud such as those that 
require real time latency and response, those geographically distributed 
and those that require mobility support. Smart cities, smart connected 
vehicles and transportation systems, smart grid, pervasive ICT 
infrastructures, and applications and services that fold under the 
umbrella of the Internet of Things offer a number of rich use cases.

This one day workshop co-located with ICC 2013, Budapest (Hungary) 
targets the area of new localized and interconnected versions of the 
cloud that moves (part of) data storage and computation toward the edge 
of the network, close to the physical world.

The FOG workshop is looking at the fields of networks, computation and 
storage, guaranteeing a global standard of quality and system integrity. 
The workshop welcomes contributions on architecting and orchestrating 
highly distributed cloud deployments, workload splitting among 
edge-based and cloud-based components, hierarchical partitioning of 
computation and data, distributed algorithms for data and computation 
placement, security and privacy issues in such a multi-tenant 
environment, network-based computing and storage.

The FOG workshop aims at bringing together researchers from Academia and 
Industry, to identify and discuss technical challenges, exchange novel 
ideas, explore enabling technologies, and report latest research efforts 
that cover a variety of topics including, but not limited to:

- Applications for the FOG Environment
- Security, Privacy and System Integrity in the FOG Environment
- Cloud-based Architectures for Distributed Data Integration
- Network as a Computing and Storage Platform
- Mobile Cloud Networking
- FOG Computing Economics
- Models for Performance-aware Optimizations
- Modeling and Composition of Data Services
- Scalability, Reliability and other Quality Assurance
- Service Abstraction and Virtualization
- Real-time Integration and Processing of Large-scale Sensor Data
- Internet of Things, Architecture, Sensors and Actuator Technologies
- Distributed Real-time Analytics
- Data-flow Modeling and Management in FOG
- Virtualization of Wireless Equipment
- Unified User and Machine Mobility Management
- Content and Service Distribution
- Interoperability and Inter-cooperative Protocols



SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
---------------------

Papers should be written in English with a standard length of five (5) 
printed pages (10-point font) including figures, without incurring 
additional page charges (maximum 1 additional page with extra charge if 
accepted). You may use the standard IEEE Transactions templates for 
Microsoft Word or LaTeX formats found at 
http://www.ieee.org/portal/pages/pubs/transactions/stylesheets.html. 
Alternatively you can follow the sample instructions in template.pdf at 
http://www.comsoc.org/confs/globecom/2008/template.pdf. Only PDF files 
are accepted for paper review.
To submit a paper, please use the following link on the EDAS submission 
server: http://edas.info/N13435

Your submitted PDF file and registered EDAS account of a paper must list 
the same author(s), title and abstract (minor wording differences in the 
abstract are ok). Papers where the PDF and EDAS account do not match the 
author(s), title, and/or abstract will be withdrawn by the Technical 
Program Co-Chairs or Symposium Co-Chairs.

IEEE reserves the right to exclude a paper from distribution after the 
conference (e.g. removal from IEEE Xplore) if the paper is not presented 
at the conference. For additional information, please contact the 
Technical Program Co-Chairs.
