We believe that this interesting workshop fits your current research efforts. The call for papers is attached with this email. The deadline for paper submissions is September 3, 2005. On behalf of the EWSN 2006 organizers Nirupama Bulusu and Thiemo Voigt EWSN 2006 publicity co-chairs We apologize in advance if you receive multiple copies of this CFP ********************************************************************* * EWSN 2006 * * * * 3rd European Workshop on Wireless Sensor Networks (EWSN) * * * * ETH Zurich, Switzerland * * February 13 - 15, 2006 * * * * http://www.ewsn.org * * * * Call For Papers * ********************************************************************* Scope of EWSN 2006: =================== Wireless sensor networks (WSN) - networks of tiny, autonomous sensor devices equipped with wireless communication - are a topic of active research in a number of different research communities, ranging from hardware to applications. WSNs are characterized by a need to carefully integrate functionalities traditionally considered to be separate in order to achieve maximum efficiency, especially with respect to energy consumption and management. Hence, a close interaction of research from different backgrounds is required. Additionally, WSNs are evolving from simple data transportation networks to functionally rich distributed systems, e.g., because actuators in the network have to be supported. The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers from different backgrounds, from hardware to applications, to create a forum where cross-layer integration, novel solutions for specific problems, and the future development of WSN functionalities can be discussed. We encourage contributions describing innovative work on WSN. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: * Hardware for WSN: transceiver concepts, wakeup radio, antenna design, system integration, process and cost of manufacturing, battery technology, energy scavenging, miniaturization * Communication protocols: MAC and link layer problems, routing and transport protocols tailored for WSN, redundancy, data aggregation, mobility support, gateways to fixed Internet, providing functionalities like localization and synchronization * Operating systems and programming abstractions: novel concepts and tools for programming and debugging sensor nodes, high-level programming abstractions * Middleware and service infrastructures: configuration and installation support, lookup of available functionalities, group communication, QoS support, localization and synchronization services, integrating WSN in existing middleware architectures * Information processing: querying, coding, compression, fusion, aggregation, event detection, classification, tracking * Security: primitives for appropriate cryptographic protocols, secure system engineering * Novel applications: requirements, experiences with real-world applications; the role of WSNs in realizing the visions of Ubiquitous Computing and Ambient Intelligence * Prototypes, field studies, and testbeds: novel sensor node prototypes, measurements within sensor network testbeds, debugging and testing * Models: energy and resource consumption, applications, mobility, and communication For further information, please visit the workshop website (http://www.ewsn.org) or contact the program chairs at <pcchairs(a)ewsn.org>.

[Fwd: [Tccc] CFP: ACM Multimedia Service Composition (MSC 05)]

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Tccc] CFP: ACM Multimedia Service Composition (MSC 05) Date: Fri, 15 Jul 2005 11:26:30 -0400 From: Xiaohui Gu <xiaohui(a)us.ibm.com> To: tccc(a)cs.columbia.edu Call for Papers 1st International Workshop on Multimedia Service Composition (MSC05) Singapore, November 13, 2005 http://www.l3s.de/msc05/index.html AIMS AND SCOPE -------------------------- Service-oriented architectures promise to introduce a maximum of flexibility and reus-ability of components into multimedia applications. Since most multimedia applications consist of several complex steps, the composition of basic services to achieve more com-plex goals is a mission critical problem. Moreover, important parameters for QoS have to be closely monitored and aggregated along the service chains to predict or guarantee certain values for the execution of complex workflows. Service composition is also a concept strongly discussed and researched in the Web community today. Web services are expected to take over an essential part of everydays responsibilities and their composition is necessary to extend their benefits to even com-plex tasks and value chains. However, most of these Web-based concepts and constructs today suffer from being generally invariant to data types including the new datatypes that are being heavily explored in the multimedia community. Using these well-understood and standardized datatypes the efficient provisioning and improved reusability of compo-nents becomes feasible. Thus, the move from data-driven to service-driven architectures promises to open up a whole new field of value adding multimedia applications dynami-cally built on top of basic components. MSC05 provides a forum for presenting new challenges and research results in multime-dia service composition. Its predecessor was held in the framework of the Brave New Topics (see www.mm2004.org/acm_mm04_braveMMservice.htm) at ACM Multimedia Conference 2004 in New York, USA. We invite researchers, and industrial practitioners to participate and share their knowledge in this forum. We solicit the following types of papers: * Research papers (up to 10 pages) * Application/experience papers (up to 10 pages) All accepted papers will be published by the ACM within a dedicated volume for the workshops of ACM Multimedia 2005. TOPICS OF INTEREST --------------------------------- Papers should address specific challenges for service composition in multimedia systems, and propose or evaluate methods, architectures and techniques to overcome these chal-lenges. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - integration of web and multimedia service composition frameworks - system integration aspects in service composition - service composition support in middleware systems - session management for service compositions - service routing and aspects of distribution - role of service discovery in dynamic composition - semantic enhancements for service discovery /selection - service composition and meta-data representation - semantic distances between advertised service capabilities - ontology-based service capability descriptions (e.g. OWL-S) - service interoperability, interface design and impact on QoS - service level agreements and QoS guarantees of service chains - multimedia service personalization and customization - multimedia application decomposition and service modeling - multimedia process workflows and service composition lifecycle PAPER SUBMISSION AND IMPORTANT DATES --------------------------------------------------------------------- Authors are invited to submit original, previously unpublished papers. Submissions should be formatted according to the ACM guidelines and have up to 10 pages. Submis-sions have to be sent by July, 29th 2005 to the workshop chairs 29 Jul 2005 Workshop papers due 22 Aug 2005 Notice of acceptance for workshop papers 29 Aug 2005 Camera ready papers due ORGANIZING COMMITTEE ------------------------------------------ Co-Chairs: Klara Nahrstedt (University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, USA) Wolf-Tilo Balke (L3S Research Center, University of Hannover, Germany) PC members: Christian Becker (University of Stuttgart, Germany) Hao-Hua Chu (National Taiwan University, Taiwan) Peter Dolog (University of Hannover, Germany) Xiaohui Gu (IBM T.
