SCOPE ------------------------------------------------------------- With recent advances in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), their practical applications in general sensing and monitoring are rapidly broadening. Although originally conceived for wide area environment or process monitoring, WSNs are increasingly being used in human computer interaction, gaming, and interactive digital art as well as in healthcare and patient monitoring. Despite the recent technological developments in the fields of sensing, embedded electronics, and sensor networking, several challenging issues need to be addressed. In particular, technological scaling, wireless communication and networking, sensor data processing and presentation are key aspects that need to be investigated in an integrated fashion for enabling visionary applications in the above areas of WSN.

PAPER SUBMISSION ------------------------------------------------------------- The aim of this conference is to bring researchers in WSN to address the following technical and application issues:

* Wireless Communication and Networking Protocols: キ 的n-body・networks キ 哲ear-body・networks * Applications キ Interactive Virtual Reality and Gaming キ WSN based Interactive Digital Art キ Human Computer Interaction キ Entertainment キ Ambient intelligence キ Smart Spaces, Personalization キ Healthcare and patient monitoring * Server side information processing: キ Data querying キ Event detection, classification,tracking * Middleware * Quality of service, security and fault tolerance issues * Enabling technologies: キ Novel sensors and materials キ Transceivers キ Microcontrollers キ Hardware platform * In Network information processing: キ Data aggregation and fusion algorithms * Tools and test beds * Performance evaluation * Internetworking with heterogeneous networks

Authors are invited to submit full papers of up to 8 pages, including references, figures and tables, formatted according to the IEEE 8.5" x 11" proceedings format. Submission instructions are available on the website: www.bodynets.org.
