Call for Competitors 2nd Dependability Competition at the
Intl. Conf. on Embedded Wireless Systems and Networks (EWSN)
February 18-19, 2017 - Uppsala, Sweden http://www.ewsn2017.org/dependability-competition.html
Following the success of last year's edition, the International Conference on Embedded Wireless Systems and Networks (EWSN 2017) will host also this year a dependability competition to compare the performance of WSN and IoT communication protocols in environments rich of radio interference.
Contestants must first submit an abstract describing their approach in detail by the contest registration deadline. The authors of the selected abstracts will then be invited to participate in a two-days dedicated competition session and asked to deploy their software on TelosB replicas deployed in an environment with controlled radio interference.
EVALUATION SCENARIO: The competition rules and evaluation scenario will hence resemble the ones of last year's edition. A complete description can be found on: http://www.ewsn2017.org/dependability-competition.html Please notice that, due to several requests, and in order to allow the contestants to prepare by testing their protocols on most public WSN testbeds, also this year the EWSN dependability competition will be carried out using TelosB-like nodes.
CATEGORIES AND PRIZE: Depending on the nature and number of submissions, multiple categories may be defined and cash awards will be given to the winners in each category. Accepted abstract will appear in the ACM digital library (upon approval of the authors) and the top-classified contestants in each category will also be invited to present their approach in a dedicated session at the conference.
ELIGIBILITY Both academia and industry submissions are encouraged. All communication protocols used in low-power wireless sensor networks are welcome, and there is no restriction on the operating system used to program the sensor nodes.
IMPORTANT DATES: Contest Registration and Abstract Deadline: November 20, 2016. Notificaton of acceptance: December 1, 2016. Competition: February 18-19, 2017.
