*CFP: The 8th IEEE International Conference on Distributed Computing in
Sensor Systems (DCOSS'12)*

http://www.dcoss.org/

May 16 – 18, 2012, Hangzhou, China.

IMPORTANT DATES:

*All Submissions:    February 1, 2012 (11:59 PM EST)*

*Notification:          March 20, 2012*

*Camera Ready:     April 4, 2012 (11:59 PM EST)*

Distributed sensor systems have become a highly active research area due to
their potential for providing diverse new capabilities. Such systems allow
intelligent dense monitoring of physical environments. The focus of this
conference is on distributed computing issues in largescale networked
sensor systems (including algorithms, applications, systematic design
techniques and tools, and in-network signal and information processing).

Authors are invited to submit original unpublished manuscripts that
demonstrate current research on computational aspects of distributed sensor
systems. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

•   Machine-to-Machine

•   Sensors in Smart Grid Systems

•   Green Networks and Systems

•   Computation and programming models

•   Energy models, minimization, awareness

•   Distributed collaborative information processing

•   Detection and tracking

•   Theoretical performance analysis: complexity, correctness, scalability

•   Abstractions for modular design

•   Fault tolerance and security

•   Languages, operating systems

•   Task allocation, reprogramming and reconfiguration

•   Dynamic resource management

•   Scalable, heterogeneous architectures (node and system-level)

•   Middleware interfaces, communication and processing primitives

•   Design, simulation and optimization tools for deployment and operation

•   Design automation and application synthesis techniques

•   Closed-loop control for sensing and actuation

•   Case studies: lessons from real world deployments

•   Network coding and compression
