-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Tccc] IEEE SECON 2007: Call for posters and demos Datum: Mon, 26 Feb 2007 16:36:25 -0500 (EST) Von: Vijay Raghunathan vr@ecn.purdue.edu An: tccc@cs.columbia.edu
(Apologies if you receive this call multiple times.) *********************************************************************** CALL FOR POSTERS and DEMOS
*Deadline: 3/29/2007, 5 pm EDT*
IEEE SECON 2007 The Fourth IEEE International Conference on Sensors, Mesh and Ad Hoc Communications and Networks Merged with IEEE International Workshop on Wireless Ad-hoc and Sensor Networks (IWWAN)
http://www.ieee-secon.org/2007/
Sponsored by IEEE Communications Society (www.comsoc.org) NOKIA and France Telecom
June 18-21, 2007 San Diego, California, USA ************************************************************************
To provide a forum for discussion and personal interaction between presenter and participants, IEEE SECON 2007 will include poster and demonstration sessions: works in progress, industry demonstrations of new applications and techniques, practical implementations, military, industrial and commercial developments, research testbeds and demonstrations, recent research/implementation results, upcoming research challenges, future directions, and novel approaches in the fields of sensor, mesh and ad hoc communications and networks. One of the key goals of this conference is to foster collaboration between industry, government agencies and academia. Hence, participation of researchers/developers from industry or governement agencies and posters/demonstrations reporting joint work are especially encouraged.
Topics considered for posters and demo include but are not limited to:
* New architectures and protocols to support communication, localization, time synchronization, routing, data dissemination, and other distributed services in heterogeneous, large-scale distributed, mesh networks and sensor networks
* Novel algorithms and theories for management, supervisory control, and monitoring of distributed ad hoc networks, and techniques for the interpretation and use of sensor data in decision-making processes
* Modeling and performance evaluation of large-scale distributed ad hoc and sensor networks, practical implementations and deployments, and real-world experiences
* Theories and models on fundamental information and communication aspects of wireless mesh and sensor networks
* Mechanisms for authenticated, secure communication and data dissemination in sensor and mesh networks
* Algorithms and protocols to support quality of service in mesh and sensor networks, including admission control, resource allocation and fairness, and capacity planning
* Integration of sensors into engineered systems, including novel techniques for on-sensor renewable power sources, mechanisms for on-sensor self-calibration and self-testing, and efficient schemes to maximize accuracy and minimize false alarms
* Hardware platforms incorporating multiple sensors, computation, actuation, and wireless interfaces
* Software platforms, middleware, and tools for mesh and sensor network applications development, deployment, and management
Submissions should be in the form of an abstract describing the main contributions of the poster/demo. If available, preliminary results can also be included. Abstracts will be evaluated mainly based on their potential to stimulate interesting discussions, exchange of ideas and promote collaborations. Accepted abstracts will be published in IEEE Xplore.
Up to three best posters will be given the opportunity to be presented at the main conference. There will also be a best demo award and a best poster award judged by a panel of academic and/or venture capital participants.
Submissions should not be more than three pages (preferably IEEE conference format, 2-column) in length. Demonstration submissions should include the space requirements and/or any other equipment-specific requirements. The documents must contain the authors' names, affiliations, and contact information and the designated corresponding author.
Accepted authors of posters/demos will have a space in the poster/demo session room to display their posters or exhibit their demos and describe their work in discussions with interested attendees.
IEEE Communications Society policy states that all accepted SECON 2007 posters/demos must have at least one registration at the regular rate. For authors co-authoring multiple posters/demos, one regular registration is valid for up to three presentations.
Submission will be accepted until 3/29/2007, 5 pm EDT for demos and for posters. Please send the submission material to the poster/demo chairs in pdf format, and make sure to include the first author name and either POSTER or DEMO in the name of the pdf file:
Mingyan Liu Jie Liu University of Michigan Microsoft Research mingyan@eecs.umich.edu Jie.Liu@microsoft.com
IMPORTANT DATES: Abstract submission due on: 3/29/2007 Acceptance notification: 4/27/2007 Final abstract due on: 7/5/2007 (two weeks after the conference) ************************************************************************
