Multiple industries are progressively investing in environmental sustainability initiatives and technologies to improve quality of life while safeguarding natural resources. For example, the Internet of Things could be a game-changer for sustainability, as reported by the World Economic Forum, which indicated that 84% of IoT deployments are currently addressing, or have the potential to handle, some of the 17 SDGs. Different challenges need to be addressed, from designing "better" sensing objects, i.e., energy-efficient, low power, and able to communicate via wide-area networks, to turning to the general public for deploying such systems and crowdsourcing data using social sensing or citizen science. With the "Networked sensing systems for a sustainable society" (NET4us) workshop, we aim to present and showcase the latest advances in sustainable networked sensing systems to monitor different urban and rural conditions to improve both people's quality of life and reduce climate change. Therefore, we seek original, unpublished papers addressing key issues and challenges in this growing area.

In all these applications, UAVs may coexist with ground Internet of Things (IoT) devices. For example, UAVs autonomously perform remote sensing relaying the collected data by the sensors. Moreover, single or multiple UAVs can cooperatively collaborate providing services that require efficient protocols where multiple objectives and constraints should be accounted for. For this workshop, we seek papers that combine the design of algorithms and testbed implementations to develop the theoretical foundations for UAVs as well as the synergies with IoT devices. The numerous emergent applications raised by IoT may require an interdisciplinary approach, involving techniques from algorithm foundations and different areas, such as computer networks, artificial intelligence, concurrent, parallel and distributed computing, security, digital signal, image and sound processing. Topics of Interest - Autonomous sensing via UAVs - Topology monitoring with UAVs - Remote sensing networks via UAVs - Communication protocols of UAVs over IoT - Modeling and analysis of UAVs over IoT - Precision agriculture and UAVs - Crops monitoring in agriculture - Bugs monitoring in agriculture - UAVs for environmental monitoring - Autopilot and UAS autonomy - UAVs path planning and scheduling - Parcel delivery using UAVs - Cellular networks and UAVs - Constrained and multi-objectives problems - Sensors localization with UAVs - UAVs tracking techniques - Cooperative control of multiple UAVs - Cyber-security communications and UAVs - Optimal UAV deployment strategies - Test-beds and experimental results for UAVs - Single UAV applications - Multi-UAV applications - Energy-efficient UAV communications - Machine learning for UAV communications Important dates - Paper Submission: *March 18, 2022* - Acceptance Notification: April 15, 2022 - Camera Ready: April 22, 2022 Submission Authors are invited to submit original unpublished manuscripts that demonstrate current research on distributed sensor systems related to WiDroIt topics of interest.
