The 10th IEEE International Conference on Distributed Computing in Sensor Systems (IEEE DCOSS) Marina Del Rey, California May 25 - 27, 2014 www.dcoss.org

CALL FOR PAPERS

Distributed sensor systems have become a highly active research area due to their potential for providing diverse new capabilities applications. The focus of the IEEE DCOSS conference is on distributed computing issues in large scale networked sensor systems (including algorithms and applications, systems design techniques and tools, and in-network signal and information processing). The conference normally features three tracks on Algorithms, Systems, and Signal Processing. In DCOSS 2014, the special track is "Social Networks and Crowdsensing". All accepted papers will be included in the symposium proceedings, which will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Conference Publishing Services and submitted to the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. Authors are invited to submit original unpublished manuscripts that demonstrate current research on computational aspects of distributed sensor systems.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Social networks and crowdsensing * Sensors for Smart Grid systems, green networks and sustainability * Computation and programming models * Energy models, minimization, awareness * Distributed collaborative information processing * Detection and tracking * Theoretical performance analysis: complexity, correctness, scalability * Abstractions for modular design * Fault tolerance and security * Languages, operating systems * Task allocation, reprogramming and reconfiguration * Dynamic resource management * Scalable, heterogeneous architectures (node and system-level) * Middleware interfaces, communication and processing primitives * Design, simulation and optimization tools for deployment and operation * Design automation and application synthesis techniques * Closed-loop control for sensing and actuation * Case studies: lessons from real world deployments * Network coding and compression

Important Dates --------------- Abstract Registration Deadline: January 31, 2014 Paper Submission Deadline: February 7, 2014 Acceptance Notification: April 2, 2014 Camera Ready Deadline: April 16, 2014 Early Registration Deadline: April 29, 2014

Paper Submission ---------------- Authors are invited to submit original unpublished manuscripts that demonstrate current research on distributed sensor systems related to IEEE DCOSS topics of interest.

All submissions should be written in English with a minimum paper length of six (6) and maximum of eight (8) printed pages including figures. Overlength of 2 pages is allowed at an extra charge of $100/page. Thus, the maximum length is ten (10) pages with fees.

Note that IEEE DCOSS 2014 has four tracks and authors must suggest their preferred track for their paper at the time of submission. The conference chairs, however, reserve the right to switch papers between tracks if they deem them a better fit for another track.

The paper submission will be through EDAS. For more info, including templates, please visit http://www.dcoss.org/submission.php
