CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
** ACM SenSys 2011 Doctoral Colloquium **
November 1, 2011, Seattle, WA, U.S.A.
http://www.cse.ust.hk/~lingu/SenSys11DC/
The doctoral colloquium (DC) is to provide a friendly, supportive,
and constructive atmosphere where PhD students can present their
research-in-progress for an open discussion guided by a panel of
experienced researchers and practitioners. Applicants should be far
enough into their PhD to have a concrete proposal, and have initially
outlined the salient issues and proposed research methodology.
Applicants should not be planning to submit their PhD thesis or
dissertation for at least four months after the DC, so that any advice
or input may still be incorporated into the doctoral work.
The DC will be a one-day, seminar-style event, consisting of short
presentations followed by roundtable discussion. Time will be allotted
to each student not only for the presentation, but also for careful,
in-depth consideration and discussion amongst the panelists and DC
participants.
SUBMISSIONS
Topic scope is the same as that listed in the SenSys call for
papers. DC submissions should consist of a single PDF document using
the SenSys paper template. The document should contain the following:
1) Research summary (3 pages) describing the work in progress and
including a 100-word abstract. Things to consider for inclusion in the
research summary might be: the expected contribution to the field of
sensor networking; the original idea or thesis statement; the problem
domain and the specific problem addressed; a brief overview of related
work; the methodological approach; research carried out and results so
far.
2) Student biographical sketch, including the names and affiliations
of the research advisor(s), and expected date of dissertation
submission.
The submission site is
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sensys2011dc
Research summaries will be reviewed by the chair and panel members. If
the work is accepted, a student may be expected to make clarifications
and improvements to their research summary by the camera-ready
deadline. Note that the research summaries will not be formally
published, but hardcopies will be made available to colloquium
delegates.
