The realization of WSNs require intensive technical research efforts especially on energy efficient scalable wireless ad hoc communication protocols due to their unusual application requirements and unique constraints. Additionally, WSNs are further evolving from simple data transportation networks to functionally rich distributed systems such that the tasks of event sensing and acting upon the phenomenon can be collectively realized in an autonomous manner by sensor and actuator nodes. The objective of this workshop is to bring together researchers from different backgrounds ranging from hardware to applications, to create a forum where cross-layer integration, novel solutions for specific problems, and the future development of WSN functionalities can be discussed. We encourage contributions describing innovative work on WSN. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: * Hardware for WSN: transceiver concepts, wakeup radio, antenna design, system integration, process and cost of manufacturing, battery technology, energy scavenging * Communication protocols: MAC and link layer problems, routing and transport protocols tailored for WSN, redundancy, data aggregation, and mobility support; gateways to fixed Internet; providing functionalities like localization and synchronization * Source coding techniques appropriate for WSN to support data fusion * Middleware for WSN: Configuration and installation support, lookup of available functionalities, group communication, distributed algorithms in WSN, harmonizing node-centric and data-centric addressing, integrating WSN in middleware architectures like .NET * Security: primitives for appropriate cryptographic protocols, secure system engineering * Applications of WSN: novel applications and their requirements such as medicine, environment control, etc.; experiences with real-world applications * What part will WSNs play in realizing the visions of ubiquitous computing & communication and Ambient Intelligence. * Prototypes, field studies, and testbeds: novel sensor node prototypes, measurements within sensor network testbeds * Modeling of WSN: models for WSN load/applications, mobility or channel models For further information, please contact the co-chairs via: info(a)ewsn2005.org Important Dates: ================ Submission deadline: September 3, 2004 Notification of acceptance: December 6, 2004 Camera-ready version: December 24, 2004 EWSN 2005 Conference: January 31 - February 2, 2005 Submission Details: =================== The workshop will only accept for review original papers that have not been previously published and are not currently under review by another conference or journal.

CFP: 1st IEEE International Workshop on Networked Entertainment - @ GLOBECOM 04

von Giovanni Pau

Our Sincere apologies if you receive multiple copies. Regards Giovanni Pau, Marco Roccetti & S.S. Lee ==================== CALL FOR PAPERS ==================================== 1st IEEE International Workshop on Networking Issues in Multimedia Entertainment (NIME'04) http://nime04.csr.unibo.it/nime04 GLOBECOM 2004 - Satellite Workshop November 29th 2004 Dallas, TX, USA Submission Deadline June 25th 2004 ============================== The growing availability of digital contents and the simultaneous cost reductions in storage, processing, and networking is driving the growth of the entertainment technology. Many of the technologies pioneered in emerging entertainment applications have also found use in a large spectrum of more serious settings, ranging from telemedicine to in-home, in-car, in-flight multimedia distribution platforms. The success of the entertainment technology is confirmed by several facts. Take, for example, the two following cases: in 2003 the revenues generated by games have yet again surpassed those provided by the movie industry; the Apple iTunes online music service has hit a record share of almost 20% in the MP3 player market in the last semester of 2003. Further, while in the past entertainment technology traditionally offered predominantly passive experiences (e.g., video on demand), continual advances in network and computer technologies are providing tools for implementing greater interactivity and for enabling consumers to enjoy more exciting experiences, such as, for example, interactive digital TV, interactive theatre and orchestrated music and sound design. Simply put, today's entertainment technology is able to create "entertainment spaces" in which people experience a world where games, movies, songs, plus news, sport events and shows, are all made available for instant enjoyment with just one click. Another beneficial aspect of high- tech entertainment is that this phenomenon is pulling together an extremely diverse group of experts specializing in different technical areas, such as networking, computer graphics, games, animation, multimedia design, human-computer interaction, educational media and software engineering. Even though high-tech entertainment promotes interdisciplinary fusion, however, only the ubiquity of wireless/wired communication is considered suitable for accepting the challenge of building a "large interactive environment" for the delivery of the maximum entertainment value to millions of consumers worldwide. In this respect, there is a great hope that the wired and wireless Internet (along with its protocols, architectures, programming styles and technological solutions) may take over this complex scenario for fulfilling the consumer expectations. The first IEEE International Workshop on Networking Issues in Multimedia Entertainment provides an open forum for researchers, engineers and academia to exchange the latest technical information and research findings on Next-Generation Multimedia Networking concepts, technologies, systems, and applications for entertainment covering existing deployments, current developments and future evolution. Authors are solicited to submit complete unpublished papers in the following, but not limited to, topic areas: Networked Technologies for Entertainment - Architectures, Platforms and Protocols for Networked Games - Internetworking, Vertical Roaming and Session - Handoffs for Entertainment (Internet to WLAN, to 3G/BT/...) - Home LANs, Body and Personal Area Networks for Entertainment - Media and Device Adaptation - Music and Movie Distribution - Next Generation Wireless Technologies for Entertainment (IEEE802.11n, UWB and Beyond) - Opportunistic Multi-hopping and Opportunistic Networks for Entertainment - QoS and Security Support for Entertainment - Resource and Service Discovery Technologies (P2P, LDAP, …) - Technologies for Networked In-Home/Car/Flight/Train Entertainment - TV-Centric and Broadcast Networks for Entertainment Emerging Entertainment Applications - Agent-based Entertainment - Augmented, Virtual and Mixed Reality - Evolutionary Entertainment - Field Trials - Interactive Television and Theater - Massive Multiplayer Games - Mobile and Wireless Entertainment - Networked Entertainment - Networked Narrative and Digital Interactive Storytelling - Networked Video, Music and Sound Design - Pervasive Entertainment - Personalized and User-Adapted Television - Sport, News and Entertainment - Virtual Technology and Virtual Environments for Entertainment - Wearable Entertainment - Wireless and Mobile Gaming - Testbed and Performance Evaluations Guidelines for Paper Submission Original papers from the above mentioned topics or related areas will be considered. Each submitted paper will be fully refereed and undergo a blind review process. The accepted papers will be published in the IEEE-sponsored workshop proceedings. Submission guidelines should be strictly followed. 1. Submit an electronic copy of the paper in a .pdf or .ps format through the EDAS paper submission site (hhtp://edas.info). 2.

We apologize in advance if you receive multiple copies of this CFP. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- SANPA 2004 Second International Workshop on Sensor and Actor Network Protocols and Applications August 22, 2004 Boston, Massachusetts, USA in Conjunction with MobiQuitous 2004 Submission Deadline: MAY 31, 2004 http://www.sanpa.org Call For Papers ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Scope: Wireless Sensor and Actor Networks (WSANs) are fast emerging as a new sensing paradigm based on the collaborative effort of large number of sensors deployed close to or inside the phenomenon to be observed, and have the potential of providing diverse services to numerous applications. The realization of WSANs require intensive technical research efforts especially in power aware scalable wireless ad hoc communications protocols due to their unusual application requirements and unique constraints such as the following: - WSANs are generally composed of large number of sensor nodes that have limited computational and storage capacity. - In many applications, sensor nodes can be randomly scattered in unreachable regions. - The sensed phenomenon must be acted on by the actor nodes in field in a timely and accurate manner. - The lifetime of a sensor network is generally limited to the battery lifetime of sensor nodes. SANPA 2004 is intended to provide a forum for researchers to present their contributions as technical papers related to communication protocols for WSANs, data management, access, aggregation and fusion techniques, and sensor network applications. SANPA 2004 will continue and build upon the success of SNPA 2003 (held in conjunction with ICC 2003). The papers solicited in SANPA 2004 cover a variety of topics including but not limited to: - Communication protocols for Wireless Sensor and Actor Networks at all layers - Novel sensor/actor network applications and services - Self organizing and scalable sensor/actor network architectures - Software platforms and tools for sensor/actor network application development - Energy efficient medium access control, error control, and traffic management protocols - Energy efficient system services such as localization and time synchronization - Robust distributed algorithms for collaborative processing - Mechanisms, protocols and algorithms for authenticated, secure communication - Application specific network and system services, including data-centric routing, attribute based addressing and location management - Data querying and dissemination - Data compression, association, aggregation and fusion Submission Instructions: The papers should confirm with the MobiQuitous paper format (www.mobiquitous.org) and can be up to 11 pages long.

Meeting 2004/1 attendance

von Otto Spaniol

Dear all, until now a percect number of delegates have confirmed their attendance, namely 28 (see annex). Comment: A number is called perfect if the sum of its integer factors (excluding itself, of course) is equal to the number. 28 is one of the few perfect numbers since 28 = 1 + 2 + 4 + 7 + 14. Other perfect numbers are 6 and 496. There are not very many of them and I don't really know whether there is another one. However, it is unknown (as far as I know) whether the the total number of them is finite or infinite. There are still some answers missing (from Australia, France, India,... and a few others). A nonperfect number of attendees would be even better and maybe the largest attendance in TC6 history. Thus I wait for some positive answers. Best regards Otto
