CALL FOR PAPERS

3rd International Workshop on Distributed Collaborative Sensors Networks

in conjonction with the 2010 International Symposium on Collaborative Technologies and Systems (CTS 2010) May 17-21, 2010 The Westin Lombard Yorktown Center Chicago, Illinois, USA

http://cisedu.us/cis/cts/10/main/callForPapers.jsp

Submission Deadline: January 7, 2010

SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES

The 3rd International Workshop on Distributed Collaborative Sensors Networks aims at providing opportunities to present the most recent advances and future challenges in the field of distributed, wireless and mobile communications in sensors networks as they relate to collaboration.

Wireless Sensors Networks are a significant current technology, attracting considerable research interest from various disciplines. Indeed, wireless sensor technology is employed in emerging areas with high potential for scientific research, and is used for biomedical, environmental or industrial applications. These applications generally require intelligent dense environment monitoring which generates important data volumes. Data collection and analysis need to deal with cooperation and coordination topics in order to prolong network lifetime and to provide useful, synthesized information for automation, decision making and support. Topology control, by means of clusters or groups, is another applied technique to overcome these challenging problems.

The 3^rd International Workshop on Distributed Collaborative Sensors Networks will focus on the research of developing collaboration infrastructures and solutions in the context of wireless sensors networks, aiming to bring together researchers and practitioners in these fields. In addition, the workshop will highlight recent innovative research results which will strengthen the formal foundation of this emerging area. This workshop is to be held as part of the 2010 International Symposium on Collaborative Technologies and Systems (CTS10).

Topics of Interest include (but are not limited to): · Data and Resource Sharing in Sensors Networks · Collaborative Data Management on Large Scale · Distributed Sensors Architectures · Protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks · Interfacing with Wireless/Mobile Systems · Routing and Data Transport in Wireless Sensor Networks · Group Collaboration in Sensor Networks · Visualization Techniques and Visual Languages for Collaborative Sensor Networks · Multi-sensor Data Fusion · Methods for Ad Hoc Deployment · Algorithms for Sensor Localization and Tracking of Mobile Users · Energy Issues and In-Situ Calibration Methods · Performance Evaluation of Distributed Sensor Networks · Multimedia Sensor Networks · Trust and Security Issues in Distributed Collaborative Sensor Systems · Intelligent Sensor Technologies and Applications · Applications Enabled by Collaborative Sensor Network Architectures

SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

We invite researchers in academia and industry to submit papers reporting original and unpublished research work on the above or any other related topics. Submission should include a cover page with authors' names, affiliations, addresses, fax and phone numbers, and email addresses. Also include an abstract of no more than 300 words along with a short list of keywords.

Please submit an electronic copy of your full draft manuscript (not exceeding 10 pages in IEEE format, single-spaced, double-column, including figures, tables and references). Electronic submissions will be accepted only in PDF format, sent by email to the organizers. Instructions for final manuscript format and requirements will be posted on the Symposium's web site later. Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper, if accepted. All accepted papers are required to be presented and will be included in the conference proceedings.

All submitted papers and posters will be rigorously reviewed by at least three of the technical program committee members and the reviewers they invite. Papers will be selected based on their originality, timeliness, significance, relevance, and clarity of presentation. Initial selection will be based on full papers.

The accepted papers will be published in the CTS 2010 proceedings which is expected to be included in the IEEE Xplore. Selected papers, after peer review, will be published on a special issue of International Journal on Information and Communication Technologies (www.ieee.ma/IJICT).
