Call for Competitors
Dependability Competition at the Intl. Conf. on Embedded Wireless Systems and Networks (EWSN)
February 14-15, 2016 in Graz, Austria
www.iti.tugraz.at/EWSN2016
This year's International Conference on Embedded Wireless Systems and Networks (EWSN 2016) will host a dependability competition that aims to compare the performance of WSN and IoT communication protocols in environments rich with 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 be invited to participate in a two-days dedicated competition session and asked to deploy their software on several TelosB replicas spread in an environment with controlled radio inteference.
Solutions will be evaluated based on the reliability of transmissions, the end-to-end latency, and the energy-efficiency. A detailed description of the evaluation scenario and metrics can be found at http://www.iti.tugraz.at/EWSN2016/cms/index.php?id=8.
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: September 26, 2015 Notificaton of acceptance: October 19, 2015 Competition: February 14-15, 2016
