[Tccc] DWSAN4CIP'09: Call for papers - 40 days until deadline
by Evgeny Osipov 06 May '09

06 May '09

(Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this e-mail.) DWSAN4CIP 2009: CALL FOR PAPERS International Workshop on Dependable Wireless Sensor and Actuator Networks for Critical Infrastructure Protection http://www.wsan4cip.eu/dwsan4cip October 12 - 14, 2009, St. Petersburg, Russia Technically Sponsored by IEEE Communications Society Russia Northwest Chapter Thematically supported by EU FP7 project WSAN4CIP OVERVIEW: It is hard to overestimate the role of ICT systems in operational cycles of modern industry and life supporting infrastructures. ICT control systems are used to continuously monitor the state of industrial processes and status of critical infrastructures. Over the last few years Wireless Sensor and Actuator Networks (WSAN) technology appeared as an ideal technological building block to improve the reliability and availability of ICTs in critical operational environments. On the other hand WSANs themselves become part of a critical infrastructures and processes. Whenever another layer of complexity is added to a system, this opens new possibilities for system failures, misuse or malicious attacks. The critical prerequisite for WSANs to be adopted in performance critical applications is their dependability, i.e. the ability of a system to deliver specified services to the user. It is, however, by far not trivial to make WSANs dependable for variety of applications in different operation environments and having different performance requirements. For DWSAN workshop we solicit original contributions aiming at achieving dependability of WSAN technology on different layers. Experiences from real-life deployment of dependable WSANs, application dependent WSAN design methodologies, dependable MAC, network and transport protocols, general issues of reliability, security in dependable WSANs are some of the key research topics to be discussed during the workshop. The goal of the workshop is to present high-quality results in the field, and to provide a framework for research collaboration through focused discussions that will designate future research efforts and directions. In this context, the program committee will accept only a limited number of papers that meet the criteria of originality, presentation quality and topic relevance. Workshop Topics The workshop objectives will be pursued through highly technical sessions organized thematically and keynote talks offered by recognized experts. Topics of interest to DWSAN 2009 include (but are not limited to) the following: * Real life experience from deployment of wireless sensor networks in critical applications * Methodologies for assessment of performance requirements * Methodologies for systematic design of WSAN communication architecture * Application of control theory for cross-layer optimization of dependable communication protocols for WSAN * Dependable MAC protocols * Dependable routing protocols * Dependable transport protocols * Intelligent energy and QoS management * Fault tolerant middleware for WSANs * Operating systems for dependable WSANs * Security services Keynote speech We have a pleasure to announce that the keynote speech this year will be given by Professor Ivan Stojmenovic, SITE, University of Ottawa, Canada http://www.site.uottawa.ca/~ivan .

05 May '09

Apologies if duplicated __________________________________________________________________________________ SENSEAPP 2009 FOURTH IEEE INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON PRACTICAL ISSUES IN BUILDING SENSOR NETWORK APPLICATIONS (in conjunction with IEEE LCN 2009) Zurich, Switzerland 20 - 23 October 2009 Web: http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~senseapp CALL FOR PAPERS Sensor nodes are tiny autonomous devices that combine sensing, computing and wireless communication capabilities. These nodes are deeply embedded into the physical surroundings, and gather and process information such as temperature, humidity, light characteristics, seismic activities or images and sound samples from the physical world. Networked systems of such sensors are expected to be used in a variety of applications including habitat monitoring, precision agriculture, disaster recovery operations, healthcare and supply chain management. Real-world sensor network deployments and prototypic implementations are still not commonplace. However, experiences gained in such deployments are crucial for the sensor network research community. These results are needed to refine assumptions made when designing hardware, software, protocols and mechanisms for sensor networks. This workshop aims at bringing together researchers from academia and industry to showcase their work and obtain feedback. We expect the workshop to act as a forum for the sensor network research community to discuss open issues, novel solutions and the future development of wireless sensor networks in general. We encourage contributions describing innovative work in the realm of wireless sensor networks. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Experiences from real-world sensor network deployment and applications Innovative sensor network applications Participatory sensing Middleware support for sensor networks Programming and debugging sensor networks Security, availability and dependability issues in sensor networks Experiences with new sensor hardware Practical problems in implementing localization and time synchronization Experiences with communication protocols Practical medium access control protocols (MACs) Topology control and routing protocols in existing sensor network deployments Fault-tolerance and troubleshooting sensor networks Antenna design and experiences with signal propagation Experiences regarding energy management and network lifetime Configuration and installation support Management of large-scale sensor networks Interconnection between IP and sensor networks Submitted papers will be reviewed by three independent experts in the field. Proceedings of the workshop will be published together with those of IEEE LCN, and will be available in digital format from the IEEE Explore Digital Library. SUBMISSION: FULL PAPERS: Authors are invited to submit original unpublished work, not currently under review by another conference, workshop or journal.

[Tccc] IJCNDS Special Issue on Scalable Wireless Networks
by Marcello Caleffi 04 May '09

04 May '09

------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------- Please forward to anyone you believe may be interested. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------- ======================================================================== ======== Call For Papers Special Issue on "Scalable Wireless Networks" http://www.inderscience.com/browse/callpaper.php?callID=1179 International Journal of Communication Networks and Distributed Systems (IJCNDS) http://www.inderscience.com/browse/index.php? journalCODE=ijcnds ======================================================================== ======== Aims and Scope: ------------------------------ With the explosive proliferation of mobile communications and wireless computing devices, the scalability property is becoming an increasingly popular and important issue in wireless communication research, as it has been recognized as one of the key features for supporting pervasive networking scenarios. The scalability concept involves several dimensions, like the node number, the data load, the user/application number, etc, and it is the basis to break up the cellular concept enriching it by multi-hop communications. Nevertheless, many aspects of scalable wireless communications are still open problems and, furthermore, some of the scalable solutions for wireless networks proposed so far are based on ideal assumptions not always justified in the practical applications. The aim of this special issue is to bring together the state-of-the- art research contributions that address the major opportunities and challenges of scalable wireless communication and networking, with emphasis on the design, the analysis and the evaluation of new techniques and novel application scenarios. Topics of Interest: ------------------------------ Original, unpublished contributions addressing application and architectures, systems and protocols design, development and analysis, in all areas related to scalable wireless networks are solicited. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - congestion, scheduling and admission control - MAC and data link algorithms - routing, broadcasting and multicasting protocols - transport-layer protocols - data transportation, dissemination, aggregation, replication and management - resource allocation, discovery and management - context and location-aware services - power-aware architectures, algorithms and protocols design - security and privacy - Quality of Service (QoS) and fairness provisioning - cross-layer design and optimization - information theoretic aspects of large scale wireless networks - innovative modulation and coding techniques - wireless sensor networks - mobile, mesh and vehicular ad hoc networks - opportunism and cooperation for scalable communications - scalable peer-to-peer and delay-tolerant networks - modeling and simulation methodologies for large scale wireless networks - practical issues, prototypes and test beds design to investigate scalability - challenges arising from new technologies (UWB, MIMO, beam forming, Cognitive Radio, etc.) Important dates: ------------------------------ Paper submission due: October 1, 2009 Notification of acceptance: January 15, 2010 Camera-ready version due: March 1, 2010 Submissions: ------------------------------ Authors are invited to submit full papers describing original research, unpublished and not currently under review by another conference or journal. Papers previously appeared in proceedings of conferences could be submitted to this special issue if they are substantially revised or improved from their earlier versions with at least 30% of new materials.

[Tccc] Last CFP: International Workshop on Adaptation in Wireless Sensor Networks (AWSN-09)
by Marco Avvenuti 04 May '09

04 May '09

************************************************* * SUBMISSION DEADLINE EXTENDED to MAY 10 2009 * ************************************************* [Apologies for possible multiple copies] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The 2nd International Workshop on Adaptation in Wireless Sensor Networks (AWSN-09) http://tweb.ing.unipi.it/awsn09 In Conjunction with The 7th IEEE/IFIP International Conference on Embedded and Ubiquitous Computing (EUC 2009) Vancouver, Canada, August 29-31, 2009 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are networked embedded systems that rely on wireless communication. WSNs are supposed to run long-lived applications. During operation, applications are likely to experience unpredictable environment conditions that require to dynamically change their behavior. With current reprogramming technology, such an adaptation is still an open issue, as it can be achieved either at the expense of significant energy consumption or through software complexity. The challenge is to achieve WSN systems that not only embed intelligence into environments, but also have embedded intelligence for reprogramming themselves after their deployment. The workshop aims at stimulating researchers and practitioners in embedded and ubiquitous computing, autonomic computing, ad-hoc networking and all other relevant areas to present their ideas and work in progress for advancing the technologies that enable adaptive WSN applications. * Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Re-configurable, adaptive applications * Context-awareness * Self-healing, self-protection, self-configuration, self-optimization * Agents and distributed computing * Embedded Virtual machines * Viral programming * Opportunistic computing * Intelligent power management and coverage * Adaptive wireless communication and networks * Security and fault-tolerance ----------------------------------------------------------------------- PAPER SUBMISSION The program committee encourage original, high-quality submissions from researchers and practitioners from academia and industry. All papers will be reviewed according to their originality, significance, correctness, presentation and relevance. Accepted papers will be published by the IEEE Computer Society. Selected papers of the workshop will be considered for a special issue in International Journal of Autonomous and Adaptive Communications Systems (IJAACS, www.inderscience.com/ijaacs) Please follow the submission instructions that will be made available at the workshop's website (http://tweb.ing.unipi.it/awsn09) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- IMPORTANT DATES Submission Deadline (EXTENDED): May 10, 2009 Authors Notification: June 1, 2009 Camera-ready Paper due: June 15, 2009 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- WORKSHOP CHAIRS Marco Avvenuti, University of Pisa, Italy (m.avvenuti(a)iet.unipi.it) Alessio Vecchio, University of Pisa, Italy (a.vecchio(a)iet.unipi.it) PROGRAM COMMITTEE Rachel Cardell-Oliver, The University of Western Australia, Australia Mario Giovanni C.A.
