Wi-DroIT 2019 – 1st International Workshop on Wireless Drones over Internet of Things Santorini Island, Greece May 29 - 31, 2019

Link: https://widroit2019.loria.frhttps://widroit2019.loria.fr/

in conjunction with the: 15th International Conference on Distributed Computing in Sensor Systems (DCOSS 2019)

Workshop papers will get 8 pages in the IEEE proceedings, in the same volume with the DCOSS papers. Few selected papers will be invited to the special issue "UAV-Based Applications in the Internet of Things (IoT)" of Sensors – Open Access Journal (Impact factor: 2.475)

Important Dates Abstract Submission: 1st March Paper Submission: 8th March Acceptance Notification: 1st April Camera Ready: 15th April Early Registration: 10th April

Scope For this workshop, we search for papers that combine design of algorithms, optimization, and test-bed to develop the theoretical foundations for the drone systems operating in symbiosis with WSN in IoT applications. The numerous emergent applications nurtured by IoT may require an interdisciplinary approach, involving techniques from algorithm foundations as well as different areas, like robotics, artificial intelligence, mathematical modeling. Applications in complex domains lead to situations where multiple optimization objectives should be accounted in the proposed solutions. Decentralized and distributed, robust and secure algorithms are searched for drones systems that operate in rapidly-changing, uncertain, and potentially adversarial environments.

Topics (Not limited to) Autonomous WSN via Drones Topology monitoring of WSN with Drones Build Remote Sensing Networks in emergency context via Drones Communication architectures and protocols of Drones over IoT Modeling and analysis of Drone systems over IoT Theoretical foundations for communication routing beyond line-of-sight of Drones Communication and networking aspects of cyber-physical systems Theoretical foundations for parcel delivery using Drones Drones/UAVS for monitoring network properties (coverage, connectivity) in emergency Drones for detecting or discovering events Facility location problem and Resource Management for Drone systems 4G-5G networks and UAVs UAV assisted networks Drones for environment (crop/forest) monitoring Constraints and multi-objective optimization problems in UAVs Localization, navigation, and dynamic path planning of UAVs over IoT Ground Localization with Drones Cooperative control of multiple UAVs UAV secure communication techniques Optimal UAV deployment strategies High-accuracy navigation techniques Real-time surveillance techniques Performance, scalability, energy, and reliability in Drones' systems Anomaly detection, network monitoring and forecasting Trust, security, and privacy Experimental results, simulators and test beds for drone networks Cooperative Rendezvous for secure drone to drone communications Secure communication between the drone and the ground networks
