-- Deadline Extension -- ============================================== Dear Colleagues,
The deadline for papers for the FAILSAFE workshop has been extended by one week to the 22nd of August, 2017. This workshop will be held concurrently with SenSys 2017.
Please see below the Call for Papers for ACM FAILSAFE 2017.
http://wp.doc.ic.ac.uk/failsafe/
We look forward to your submissions describing the challenges and struggles that you have faced and during real WSN deployments.
Unique to this workshop, we will ask for submissions reporting the *failure* of actual embedded sensing system deployments complete with data where possible that can shed insight as to how the problems affected such sensor based systems and their goals. We want the failures, problems and glitches that wasted hours of researcher time; head scratching whilst trying to diagnose and fix subtle or unexpected bugs etc. This workshop focuses on the point at which the simulations and tests done in the lab are taken out into the field, and the previous assumptions fail. The overarching aim is to establish a process that encourages the refinement and development of a new science of sensor systems to enable reliable, maintainable deployments that last the life-times expected of them.
The topic is important as the scientific problems that we face with IoT systems strike hard against the limits of our knowledge about how to organise, analyse, and adapt large, loosely-coupled, intercommunicating, and increasingly autonomous, distributed systems. This topic is timely because there is mounting pressure from various industries and government bodies to be able to place their trust in sensing based infrastructures for decision-making. This contention is supported by industry research showing the potential growth of the IoT sector.
In this workshop we wish to:
Share experiences of real IoT developments “in the wild”.
Understand the differences between the theoretical performance of results and real +experiences.
Map failure to causes and to explore the more and less obvious causalities.
Produce a list of research findings and areas to prioritise for further investigation.
The workshop scope includes:
Real WSN/IOT etc. deployments that either experienced some, or ended in, failure, complete with data to show what failed and a detailed analysis of the causes of the failure and the lessons learned.
Examples of a WSN or other sensor deployments that where either hacked or attacked in a nefarious way, with as much data and details as can be provided.
Any practices or tools, along with methodology and description,that have evolved out of sensor system deployment failures that are used to prevent further problems and that can be shown to improve the success rate of Sensor System deployments.
Privacy Issues:
The organisers of FAILSAFE recognise that some information from deployments may have a sensitive nature or be under a non-disclosure agreement. In these cases, it is acceptable to anonymise any information as long as it does not inhibit the point or issues being presented in the work. If you have any queries about this at all, please contact the program chair Michael Breza (mjb04@doc.ic.ac.uk) for further advise and clarification.
