IGF 2019 First Open Consultations and MAG Meeting Registration

by Adam Burns

https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/igf-2019-first-open-consul… I was hoping to attend in person, but circumstances have changed where I may not be able to even attend on-line. Is anyone else able to attend to promote this group's agenda and perhaps to report back here on proceedings? Best Wishes to all, Adam.

Open Letter on 5G risks for Health

by Luca Belli

Hi all, I have seen the open letter below, circulating in a couple of mailing lists 5gspaceappeal.org<http://5gspaceappeal.org> I have to confess I have never considered the arguments raised in the letter before. Has anyone worked on the issue here? Best Luca Executive summary Telecommunications companies worldwide, with the support of governments, are poised within the next two years to roll out the fifth-generation wireless network (5G). This is set to deliver what is acknowledged to be unprecedented societal change on a global scale. We will have "smart" homes, "smart" businesses, "smart" highways, "smart" cities and self-driving cars. Virtually everything we own and buy, from refrigerators and washing machines to milk cartons, hairbrushes and infants' diapers, will contain antennas and microchips and will be connected wirelessly to the Internet. Every person on Earth will have instant access to super-high-speed, low- latency wireless communications from any point on the planet, even in rainforests, mid-ocean and the Antarctic. What is not widely acknowledged is that this will also result in unprecedented environmental change on a global scale. The planned density of radio frequency transmitters is impossible to envisage. In addition to millions of new 5G base stations on Earth and 20,000 new satellites in space, 200 billion transmitting objects, according to estimates, will be part of the Internet of Things by 2020, and one trillion objects a few years later. Commercial 5G at lower frequencies and slower speeds was deployed in Qatar, Finland and Estonia in mid-2018. The rollout of 5G at extremely high (millimetre wave) frequencies is planned to begin at the end of 2018. Despite widespread denial, the evidence that radio frequency (RF) radiation is harmful to life is already overwhelming. The accumulated clinical evidence of sick and injured human beings, experimental evidence of damage to DNA, cells and organ systems in a wide variety of plants and animals, and epidemiological evidence that the major diseases of modern civilization-cancer, heart disease and diabetes-are in large part caused by electromagnetic pollution, forms a literature base of well over 10,000 peer-reviewed studies. If the telecommunications industry's plans for 5G come to fruition, no person, no animal, no bird, no insect and no plant on Earth will be able to avoid exposure, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, to levels of RF radiation that are tens to hundreds of times greater than what exists today, without any possibility of escape anywhere on the planet. These 5G plans threaten to provoke serious, irreversible effects on humans and permanent damage to all of the Earth's ecosystems. Immediate measures must be taken to protect humanity and the environment, in accordance with ethical imperatives and international agreements.

Fwd: CFP: ACM SIGCAS Conference on Computing and Sustainable Societies (COMPASS) --- July 3 – 5, 2019 --- Accra, Ghana

by Kurtis Heimerl

---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Jay Chen <jay.chen(a)nyu.edu> Date: Sun, Jan 6, 2019 at 9:22 AM Subject: CFP: ACM SIGCAS Conference on Computing and Sustainable Societies (COMPASS) --- July 3 – 5, 2019 --- Accra, Ghana To: Undisclosed recipients <jay.chen(a)nyu.edu> ***Apologies for cross-posting*** Computing and Sustainable Societies 2019 Accra, Ghana | July 3 – 5, 2019 https://acmcompass.org/ The second annual ACM SIGCAS Conference on Computing and Sustainable Societies (COMPASS 2019) invites submissions for the conference to be hosted at Accra, Ghana, July 3 – 5, 2019. COMPASS began as ACM DEV, which was held annually between 2010 and 2016. The COMPASS conference, now in its second year, aims to advance the state-of-the-art in developing sustainable technologies for regions around the world. Researchers at the conference have broad technical expertise, spanning artificial intelligence, human-computer interaction, networking, systems, speech and language processing, computer security, data mining, and computer vision. They seek to apply this expertise to diverse problems in sustainable development, spanning health, accessibility, education, agriculture, financial services, and governance. Call for Papers The second annual ACM SIGCAS Conference on Computing and Sustainable Societies (COMPASS 2019) invites submissions for the conference. The program <https://acmcompass.org/2018/program> from last year showcases the types of topics typically relevant to the conference. COMPASS broadly includes papers from four general “areas”: Systems, HCI, Data Science/AI, and Deployment Experiences. *Systems: *The Systems area focuses on computational innovations. Relevant topics may include networking; data collection toolkits; *HCI: *The HCI area focuses on socio-technical systems. Relevant topics may include gender equity; social forces influencing wireless network access; the landlord/tenant information economy; *Data Science/AI: *The Data Science/AI area focuses on analysis, collection of large scale data sets as well as models and algorithms for developing and studying AI based systems. AI applications not deployed are also considered in this area. *Deployment Experiences: *The Deployment Experiences area focuses on reporting experiences with field deployments or results from long-term studies that can provide valuable insights into how our tools perform (or fail) in real-world applications. Tracks COMPASS 2019 will have two tracks. To help facilitate global representativeness, COMPASS provides mentoring to support potential authors who need guidance in creating these papers. The* Papers* track will represent archival journal-type submissions, with a length of between 4 to 10 pages plus references. Papers submitted to this track should represent polished, significant contributions. Authors are encouraged to submit a paper of length proportional to its contribution. In addition, COMPASS 2019 will have a *Posters *track for preliminary projects or late-breaking results. Posters will not be archival and are intended to allow presenters to share their latest results or get early feedback on projects. Poster submissions will be limited to 2 pages plus references. There are two poster submission deadlines (March 15 and May 15) to allow for earlier travel planning as well as late-breaking work. Important dates Feb 1, 2019: Requests for mentorship due March 15, 2019: Submission of Papers and Posters (first round) due April 1, 2019: Notification of Posters (first round) acceptances May 1, 2019: Notification of decisions for Papers May 15, 2019: Submission of Posters (second round) due May 30, 2019: Notification of Posters (second round) acceptances June 15, 2019: Camera-ready of Papers due All submission are due 11:59 pm UTC. General Conference Chair Richard Anderson, University of Washington Program Chairs Jennifer Mankoff, University of Washington Carla Gomes, Cornell University Jay Chen, NYU Abu Dhabi Local Arrangement Chairs Ayorkor Korsah, Angela Ansah, and Nathan Amanquah, Asheshi University *CSG Steering Committee* Richard Anderson, University of Washington Nicola Dell, Cornell Tech Melissa Densmore, University of Cape Town Carla Gomes, Cornell University Jennifer Mankoff, University of Washington Aaditeshwar Seth, Indian Institute of Technology Delhi Lakshmi Subramanian, New York University Miland Tambe, University of Southern California Bill Thies, Microsoft Research New England Ellen Zegura, Georgia Tech *Program Committee* TBA -- Public Key: https://flowcrypt.com/pub/kheimerl@cs.washington.edu
