Fourth International Conference on Networked Sensing Systems (INSS 2007) June 6-8, 2007 Braunschweig, Germany http://www.inss-conf.org

Sponsored by Transducer Research Foundation ********************************************************************************

During the past years the INSS is established as THE scientific event where academic and industrial experts from the areas of sensor, networks and applications on sensor networks come together. The INSS provides a forum to hear about the hottest developments in these areas, to exchange ideas and to start up collaborations within these fields and between industry and academia. INSS 2007 is the fourth annual conference with a selective single-track technical programs.

The International Conference on Networked Sensing Systems invites outstanding research papers from the field of sensor technology, wireless networking or application of networked sensor systems. The conference especially encourages submissions that are suitable and should be of interest for the researchers from all three fields.

Topics include but are not limited to:

- Applications of Networked Sensing Systems - Prototypes, field studies, and testbeds for Networked Sensing Systems - Security for Networked Sensing Systems - Data management for Networked Sensing Systems - Middleware for Networked Sensing Systems - Communication protocols - Sensor Phenomena and Modeling - Sensing Systems - Sensors - Sensors Materials and Fabrication

INSS 2007 invites the submission of both regular and BOF papers. Regular papers must be no more than 8 two-column pages (minimum 4 pages) long and include an abstract of 100 - 150 words. Birds-of-Feather (BoF) papers must be no more than 4 two-column pages long and include an abstract of 100 -150 words.
