ACM SenSys 2006: Call for Papers
The 4th ACM Conference on Embedded Networked Sensor Systems
November 1-3, 2006
Boulder, Colorado, USA
http://www.isi.edu/sensys2006/
Sponsored by ACM SIGCOMM, SIGMOBILE, SIGARCH, SIGOPS, SIGMETRICS and SIGBED; with support from NSF.
The 4th ACM Conference on Embedded Networked Sensor Systems (SenSys) is a highly selective, single-track forum for the presentation of research results on systems issues in the area of embedded, networked sensors. Distributed systems based on networked sensors and actuators with embedded computation capabilities allow for an instrumentation of the physical world at an unprecedented scale and density, thus enabling a new generation of monitoring and control applications. This conference provides an ideal venue to address the research challenges facing the design, deployment, use, and fundamental limits of these systems. Sensor networks require contributions from many fields, from wireless communication and networking, embedded systems and hardware, distributed systems, data management, and applications, so we welcome cross-disciplinary work.
We seek technical papers describing original, previously unpublished research results. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, new research results in the following areas for sensor networks:
-Sensor network architecture and protocols -Distributed coordination algorithms such as localization, time synchronization, clustering, and topology control -Failure resilience and fault isolation -Energy management -Operating systems -Data, information, and signal processing -Data storage and management -Distributed actuation and control -Programming methodology -Security and privacy -Sensor network planning, provisioning, calibration and deployment -Operational experience and testbeds -Experimental methodology, including measurement, simulation, and emulation infrastructure -Analysis of real-world systems and fundamental limits -Applications -Sensor networks in unusual environments -Integration with back-end systems such as web-based information systems, process control, and enterprise software
Important dates:
Paper Registration and Abstract: March 30, 2006, midnight US Eastern Time Paper Submission Deadline: April 6, 2006, midnight US Eastern Time Notification of Paper Acceptance: June 29, 2006 Camera Ready Paper Copy: August 22, 2006
All deadlines are firm; we will not honor extensions. Papers must be original, unpublished work not under consideration elsewhere. For submission details, see the conference web site. Selected papers from the conference will be forwarded to the ACM Transactions on Sensor Networks for possible publication. For the first time SenSys 2006 will present a best paper/presentation award.
Demos:
Demonstrations showing innovative research and applications are solicited. SenSys is very interested in demonstrations of technology, platforms, and applications of wireless sensor networks. Abstracts of accepted demos will be published in the SenSys conference proceedings. Submissions from both industries and universities are encouraged. For the first time SenSys 2006 will present a best demo award for the best student demo. For submission details, see the conference web site. A call for demos with submission dates, etc., will be posted at a later point.
Posters:
Posters showing exiting early work on sensor networks are solicited. Areas of interest are the same as those listed in the technical call for papers. While the poster need not describe completed work, it should report on research for which at least preliminary results are available. We especially encourage submissions by students (that is, for which a student is the first author on the poster). For submission details, see the conference web site. A call for posters with submission dates, etc., will be posted at a later point.
