Apologies for multiple receptions of this Call for Papers. ------------------------------------------------------------------------

9th IEEE International Conference on Distributed Computing in Sensor Systems (IEEE DCOSS) Cambridge, Massachusetts, May 20-23, 2013 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 and applications. The focus of the IEEE DCOSS conference is on distributed computing issues in large scale networked sensor systems (including algorithms and applications, system design techniques and tools, and in-network signal and information processing). The conference normally features three tracks on Algorithms, Systems, and Signal Processing. In addition, a new “Track of the Year” is introduced; this track focuses on emerging topics in sensing. In DCOSS 2013, the focus topic is “Social Networks and Crowdsensing.”

Authors are invited to submit original unpublished manuscripts that demonstrate current research on computational aspects of distributed sensor systems.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
