[Our apologies for cross-mailing list posting] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Call for Papers The Fifth International Workshop on Sensor Networks (SN 2012) in conjunction with ICCCN 2012, July 30 - August 2, 2012, Munich, Germany http://sest.vsu.edu/~hchen/conference/ICCCN_SN12/ ========================================================================
Overview As computing is gradually integrated with every aspect of our lives and activities, sensing technology is becoming pervasive. Sensing devices integrated with networking and computing components can provide continuous inputs from monitoring their surroundings and even internals. Actuating devices can also be integrated and become new output devices. The advancing of sensing and networking technology has created enormous opportunity for developing new computer systems and applications of societal importance. Thus, it is not a surprise that sensor networks have attracted many researchers and practitioners in recent years. Nevertheless, we believe the sensor networking and their systems and applications have become a significant force that will reshape the landscape of computing. We are motivated to set up a forum for researchers and practitioners to exchange ideas in development of sensor networks and their applications. The Fifth International Workshop on Sensor Networks (SN 2012) will be held in conjunction with the International Conference on Computer Communication Networks (ICCCN 2012). The workshop welcomes researchers, practitioners, and students to join us in the workshop. The areas of interests include but are not limited to the following: - Media access control - Topology discovery and management - Localization - Routing - Network and battery lifetime - Network coverage and connectivity - Network scalability - Security and privacy - Quality of service - Mobility management - Self-organization - Robustness, faculty-tolerance, self-healing, and reliability - Two-dimensional and three-dimensional sensor deployment - Integration of wireless sensor networks and the Internet - Modeling and simulation - Sensor network testbed design and development - Data transportation, aggregation, and visualization - Network monitoring - MAC, PHY, routing, and applications of Underwater/Acoustic sensor networks - MAC, PHY, routing, and applications of Body sensor networks Highlights: - The proceedings of the workshop will be published by IEEE CS Press, included in the IEEE Xplore digital library, and indexed by the EI. - Extended versions of selected best papers will be recommended for possible publication in the International Journal of Sensor Networks (IJSNet) Important Dates: Paper submission opens: March 1, 2012 Paper submission deadline: March 16, 2012 Acceptance Notification: April 25, 2012 Camera Ready Papers due: May 10, 2012 General Co-Chair David Hung-Chang Du - University of Minnesota, USA Yang Xiao, University of Alabama, USA Technical Program Committee Co-Chair Ming Li, California State University, Fresno, USA Hui Chen, Virginia State University, USA You are welcome to contact us ( [email protected] and [email protected]) for issues regarding the workshop. _______________________________________________ IEEE Communications Society Tech.
