Subject and Purpose of the Workshop
We lately witness a tremendous development in the wireless sensor networking (WSN), which
make it possible to monitor, unobtrusively and for long periods of time the physical environment and
to collect the relevant data. For many applications, the sensor networks cannot operate in complete
isolation. There must be a way enabling a monitoring entity or some end-users to gain access to the
data produced by the sensor network, and even to interact with a particular sensor mote to
activate/deactivate it, read the sensed value instantaneously, fix some inner parameters, make dynamic
code loading into the mote, etc. By connecting the sensor network to an existing network
infrastructure such as a local-area network, a private intranet, mobile smart networks, and notably the
global internet, gaining remote access to the sensor network would be straightforward. However, many
questions need answers, and many challenges must be tackled before such interconnection become
effective. Suitability of IP standards must be investigated, as well as the connection architecture. Is it
more effective to use fixed gateways? Or is it better to employ a dynamic ad hoc mode where all nodes
(or several nodes) cooperatively and alternatively act as gateways. By openly connect a sensor
network to other networks new vulnerabilities will take place. An intruder would not need to gain
physical access to the network anymore, but it might remotely launch attacks. Security is thus a very
important aspect that must be considered. Routing, QoS, and interoperability are also important and
challenging issues in the new heterogeneous systems. This workshop is a forum for researchers,
academics, and industrials to debate the different issues related to the interconnection of wireless
sensor networks, and discuss relevant theoretical and practical solutions.
Topics
Topics of the workshop consist of all aspects related to the interconnection and integration of WSN to
other networks, including but not limited to:
- Interconnection architecture aspects
