ACM SenSys2021

    Call For Papers
The ACM Conference on Embedded Networked Sensor Systems (SenSys 2021) is
the premier computer systems conference focused on the architecture,
design, implementation, and performance of networked sensing systems,
sensor-oriented data modeling and analytics, and sensor-enabled
applications. ACM SenSys brings together academic, industry, and government
professionals to a single-track, highly selective forum that takes a broad
view on the areas of computing relevant to the future of networked embedded
sensor systems. Topics of interests include, but are not limited to, the
following:


- New platforms and hardware designs for networked sensor systems

- New communication paradigms for ubiquitous connectivity

- Low-power wireless media access control, network, and transport protocol
designs

- Systems software, including operating systems, network stacks, and
programming

- System services such as time and location estimation

- Low-power operation, energy harvesting, and energy management

- Resource-efficient machine learning for embedded and mobile platforms

- Mobile and pervasive systems with elements of networked sensing

- Data management and analytics, including quality, integrity, and
trustworthiness

- Learning algorithms and models for perception, understanding, and
adaptation

- Heterogeneous collaborative sensing, including human-robot sensor systems

- Security and privacy in networked sensor applications and systems

- Fault-tolerance, dependability, and verification

- Applications and deployment experiences


We invite technical papers describing original ideas, groundbreaking
results, and real-world experiences involving innovative networked embedded
sensor systems. Successful submissions will explain why the topic is
relevant to a vision of the future of sensing systems. Submissions will be
judged on originality, significance, clarity, relevance, and correctness.


Important Dates


Paper Registration and Abstract:

Paper Submission:

June 4, 2021, 23:59 AoE


Notification of Paper Acceptance:

September 8, 2021


Submission Guidelines


Submitted papers must be unpublished and must not be currently under review
for any other publication. Submissions must be full papers, at most 12
single-spaced 8.5” x 11” pages with 9-pt font size in two-column format,
including figures and tables. As for references, submissions may include as
many pages as needed. All submissions must use the LaTeX (preferred) or
Word styles found here. LaTeX submissions should use the acmart.cls
template (sigconf option), with the default 9-pt font. This format will be
used also for the camera-ready version of accepted papers. Authors must
make a good faith effort to anonymize their submissions. Papers that do not
meet the size, formatting, and anonymization requirements will not be
reviewed. We require each paper to be in Adobe Portable Document Format
(PDF) and submitted through the conference submission system.


Papers that describe experiments on human subjects, or that analyze
nonpublic data derived from human subjects (even anonymized data), should
briefly describe how the research protocol addresses ethical considerations
and whether their work was vetted by an ethics review (e.g., IRB approval).
We expect authors to follow the rules of their host institutions around
data collection and experiments with human subjects.


Accepted submissions will be available on the ACM digital library at most
two weeks before the conference.
