From the May/June 2012 issue of IEEE/ACM Transactions on Computational Biology and Bioinformatics This special section contains five selected papers that cover a broad range of bioinformatics topics, including medical imaging, Markov clustering, simulation, model checking, and gene networks. From the May 2012 issue of IEEE Transactions on Mobile Computing Special Section on Outstanding Papers from MobiSys 2011 This special section brings to you revised versions of highly-ranked papers from MobiSys 2011. The three papers are a diverse set, and they offer you a glimpse into what is exciting in mobile computing today, as well as the different kinds of research that are presented at MobiSys. From the May 2012 issue of IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics Special Section on the IEEE Conference on Visual Analytics Science and Technology (VAST) Visual Analytics is a relatively new and evolving field that, at its core, is directed to the science of analytical reasoning supported by highly interactive visual interfaces.This special section presents the extended versions of the best papers of IEEE VAST 2010. Collectively, the set of papers exemplify three components that are central to visual analytics as a field: attention to integration of visual interface and visualization methods with computational methods to derive insight from large volumes of data, application of methods to challenging analytical problems for which computational methods alone are unlikely to be sufficient, and attention to users and how to support them not just in seeing patterns and relationships, but in carrying out an analysis process.

Open Calls for PapersIEEE Transactions on Dependable and Secure Computing:The aim of the special issue to discuss novel ideas, taxonomies, ontologies, protocols, methods, algorithms, techniques and tools to specify, represent, evaluate and in-depth study Cloud computing features. Any contribution related to qualitative and quantitative evaluation is welcome. submission deadline: June 1, 2012 IEEE Transactions on Computers:Special Section on Adaptive Hardware and Systems (PDF) The aim of this special section is to present the latest developments in the area of adaptive hardware and systems, be it at the physical, architectural, software or system level. This includes original contributions into novel physical enabling technologies e.g. adaptive circuits and architectures; novel tools and algorithms for adaptive system design e.g. adaptation-aware compilers, adaptive data processing and communications; and novel applications of adaptive hardware and systems e.g. intelligent agent machines. submission deadline: August 15, 2012 IEEE Transactions on Computers:Special Issue on Cloud of Clouds (PDF) This special issue will focus on the theme "A Cloud of Clouds," which is viewed as the next revolution in the Cloud Computing paradigm wherein the computational and data infrastructure for handling scientific, business and enterprise applications spans across multiple clouds and data-centres. The first wave of Cloud Computing has addressed several issues ranging from actual physical infrastructure realization to providing a variety of services (PaaS, SaaS, IaaS) to the Cloud users. However, as the complexity, heterogeneity and scale of applications grows, it will be increasingly important to be able to compose federated “Cloud of Clouds” that can address requirements for heterogeneous capabilities and large scales. For example, with an anticipated growth of mobile users of Cloud services in the near future, issues related to the interoperability between Cloud service providers, Cloud technologies and users become challenging. Business ventures operating across multiple Clouds may need to set and oblige policy driven schemes, which may become prohibitively expensive for ordinary users. In addition, pricing models, trust and security based research are added issues to be addressed. submission deadline: September 15, 2012 IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems:Special Issue on Trust, Security, and Privacy in Parallel and Distributed Systems (PDF) In modern computing paradigms, most computing systems, e.g. cluster computing, grid computing, cloud computing, the Internet, telecommunication networks, Cyber Physical Systems (CPS), and Machine to Machine communication networks (M2M), are parallel and distributed systems. While providing improved expandability, manageability, efficiency, and reliability, parallel and distributed systems increase their security weaknesses to an unprecedented scale.As the system devices are widely connected, their vulnerabilities are shared by the entire system. Because tasks are allocated to, and information is exchanged among the system devices that may belong to different users, trust, security and privacy issues have yet to be resolved. The purpose of the proposed Special Issue of IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems is to publish recent advances in trust, security, and privacy for emerging parallel and distributed systems. submission deadline: September 16, 2012 IEEE Transactions on Computers:Special Section on Computational Sustainability (PDF) This special section will focus on computational sustainability which is a new emerging research field with the overall goal of studying and providing solutions to computational problems for balancing environmental, economic, and societal needs for a sustainable future. submission deadline: October 1, 2012 Click here to read IEEE Computer Society Transactions Author Information.
