CALL FOR PAPERS

SCOPE:

----------------------

The advancement in sensing, embedded computing, and wireless communication has accelerated the progress of Body Area Networks (BodyNets). BodyNetsintegrate and deploy wireless sensors, RFID tags, and other pervasive devices within and around human bodies for constructing diverse and practical systems for smart health and wellbeing, human computer interaction, and provision of entertainment. This conference will explore the challenges and technical approaches to designing, building, and deploying BodyNets. The conference aims to establish a forum to exchange ideas, discuss practices, raise awareness, and to share cutting edge technology and experiences among researchers and practitioners in the field of computer science, biomedical engineering, medicine, and other disciplines in both academia and industry.

TOPICS:

-----------------------

The conference invites original technical papers that were not previously published and are not currently under review for publication elsewhere.

Topics covers all aspects of BodyNets including, but are not limited to:

- Embedded Medical Devices

- Systems, Applications, Case Studies

- Wearable Computing

- Signal Processing in BodyNets

- Networking and Communications

- Privacy and Security

- Software Design and Support

- Hardware Design and Architectures

- Sensors and Actuators

- Integrating BodyNets into healthcare

- Medical Device Plug-and-Play

PAPER SUBMISSIONS:
