**************Deadline November 15******************
----------------------------------------------------------------- Special Issue of the Journal of Computer Communications on Sensor Networks
Guest Editors: Guoliang Xue (Arizona State University, USA) Hossam Hassanein (Queens University, Canada)
PUBLICATION: Fall 2004
Recent advances in micro-electro-mechanical systems technology and wireless communications have enabled the development of low-cost low-power sensors. These tiny sensor nodes, which can perform sensing, simple computation, and communication in short distances, leverage the idea of sensor networks in which the number of nodes can be a few orders of magnitude higher than the number of nodes in a traditional ad hoc network. Applications of sensor networks include military applications, environmental applications, health applications, home applications, and many other commercial applications.
This special issue of Computer Communications seeks contributions describing recent advances in all areas of sensor networks. Papers should describe original and previously unpublished, and not currently under review by another conference, workshop or journal. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Architectures and protocols * Applications * Energy management * Low-energy energy routing, including multicasting and broadcasting * Survivable routing * Data gathering * Data fusion * Positioning and tracking techniques * Reachability * Reliability and fault tolerance * Management protocols * Query and data dissemination * Network security * Performance evaluation * Scalability * Self-organization * Operating system for sensor networks
IMPORTANT DATES Deadline for submissions: November 15, 2003 Notification of acceptance: February 15, 2004 Publication: Fall 2004
