IFIP Networking 2006 - CFP Workshop

von Jorge Sá Silva

Call for Papers -------------------------------------------------- Performance Control in Wireless Sensor Networks, a Workshop at the 2006 IFIP Networking Conference. -------------------------------------------------- Please apologise cross/multiple posting, and please feel free to distribute this CfP further. Networking 2006 will take place at the University of Coimbra, Portugal, between May 15 and May 19. Detailed information ==================== http://www.cs.ucc.ie/~ur1/networking2006/ http://networking2006.dei.uc.pt/workshops.htm Important Dates =============== March 17th, 2006 Papers due April 10th, 2006 Notification of acceptance April 17th, 2006 Camera ready papers due Goal and Overview ================== The Performance Control in WirelessSensor Networks Workshop will be a half-day, peer-reviewed workshop on Friday, May 19, 2006. The aim of the workshop is to bring together professionals from academia and industry to discuss performance issues in wireless sensor networks. The focus of the workshop will be on work in progress. Call for Papers =============== Wireless sensor networks are currently the subject of intense research and many prototype installations are currently investigated. These existing sensor network installations have in common that they are not considered time critical. No immediate action has to be undertaken as a response to the received data. However, many future application areas of wireless sensor networks such as plant automation and control, traffic management or medical applications require this feature. In such environments, data has to be transported reliable and in time through the sensor network. In other words, performance guarantees regarding a variety of network parameters are required. Due to the lack of appropriate models, components and protocols it is currently very difficult to construct and operate a wireless sensor network with a controlled performance. Thus, the commercial success of wireless sensor networks in many application areas is unsure unless this particular problem is understood and solved. Topics of Interest Include: =========================== This workshop intends to bring together researchers and practitioners, working on performance issues within wireless sensor networks. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: * Models: Traffic models, channel models, mathematical models to balance performance parameters in the network. * MAC protocols: MAC protocols with deterministic behavior, MAC protocols to balance forwarding performance and energy consumption. * Routing and topology control: Methods to stabilize network topology, topology robustness. * Data transport: Control of data transport delay and reliability, methods to improve data forwarding performance in sensor networks. * Operating systems: Performance optimization and control of sensor network operating systems. * Middleware and frameworks: Middleware/frameworks providing performance guarantees for sensor network applications. * Security: The impact of security features on network performance. Paper Submissions: ================== The paper can report on work in progress. The size of the paper should not exceed 8 pages (Please adhere to the formatting standard for a manuscript of the Springer-Verlag LNCS). The cover page must contain an abstract of about 150 words 3-5 keywords, name and affiliation of author(s) as well as the corresponding author's e-mail and postal address. Authors of accepted papers are expected to register and present the paper at the Workshop.

DCOSS '06 Call for Papers-- Feb. 8 abstract submission deadline

von Wendi Heinzelman

========================================= IEEE International Conference on Distributed Computing in Sensor Systems June 18 - 20, 2006 San Francisco, California, USA ========================================= WWW.DCOSS.ORG The 2006 International Conference on Distributed Computing in Sensor Systems (DCOSS '06) will take place in San Francisco during June 18 - 20, 2006. DCOSS '06 will represent a merger of the DCOSS conference series and the IEEE International Workshops on Algorithms for Wireless, Mobile, Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks (WMAN). The first DCOSS conference, held at Marina del Rey on June 30-July 1, 2005, featured high quality research papers and interesting invited and contributed poster/presentation sessions. DCOSS '06 is intended to cover several aspects of distributed computing in sensor systems such as high level abstractions, computational models, systematic design methodologies, algorithms, analysis and applications. The conference will be co-located with several closely related workshops, and will provide a forum for researchers and practitioners to present their contributions related to the above high-level aspects of distributed sensor systems. In addition to contributed papers, the meeting will also include keynote addresses by leading researchers, a panel discussion, and a poster/presentation session. SPONSORED BY IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Parallel Processing (TCPP) IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Distributed Processing (TCDP) Held in co-operation with ACM SIGARCH ACM SIGBED European Association for Theoretical Computer Science (EATCS) IFIP WG 10.3 MEETING INFORMATION The advance program will be available in April 2006. Check http://www.dcoss.org/ for updated information. IMPORTANT DATES (firm deadlines) February 08, 2006 Paper Abstract Submission Due February 15, 2006 Paper Submission Due March 15, 2006 Poster Abstract Submission Due April 01, 2006 Notification of Acceptance/Rejection April 16, 2006 Camera-Ready Paper Due ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ============================== CALL FOR PARTICIPATION ============================== CALL FOR PAPERS Distributed sensor systems have become a highly active research area due to their potential for providing diverse new capabilities. Such systems allow intelligent dense monitoring of physical environments, which makes them immensely useful for data collection and analysis. While much ongoing research has addressed networking, communication and low-level self-configuration issues in such systems, there are also significant challenges pertaining to systematic design, algorithm development and analysis, and abstract modeling in order to achieve efficient and robust realizations of large-scale distributed sensor systems. The large number of sensor devices involved, severe power, computational and memory limitations, resource heterogeneity, dense deployment and frequent failures pose novel challenges to design, algorithms, analysis and implementation. The focus of the conference is on distributed computing issues in large-scale networked sensor systems (including algorithms, applications, and systematic design techniques and tools), but networking-related contributions that support high level abstractions are also welcome. Authors are invited to submit original unpublished manuscripts that demonstrate current research on computational aspects of distributed sensor systems. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Computation and programming models - Energy models, minimization, awareness - Distributed algorithms for collaborative information processing - Theoretical performance analysis: complexity, correctness, scalability, fault-tolerance - Abstractions for modular design - Languages, operating systems - Task allocation, reprogramming and reconfiguration - Dynamic resource management - Scalable, heterogeneous architectures (node and system-level) - Middleware interfaces, communication and processing primitives - Design, simulation and optimization tools for deployment and operation - Design automation and application synthesis techniques - Case studies: lessons from real world deployments PAPER SUBMISSION Submitted manuscripts may not exceed 12 single-spaced pages using 12-point size font on 8.5x11 inch pages, including figures and tables. References may be included in addition to the 12 pages. Submissions will be judged on correctness, originality, technical strength, significance, quality of presentation, and interest and relevance to the conference attendees. Submitted papers may not have appeared in or be under consideration for another conference or a journal. Submission procedures will be available via Web access at http://www.dcoss.org/ All manuscripts will be reviewed. Manuscripts must be received by February 15, 2006, by 5 p.m. U.S. Pacific Coast Time. This is a final deadline; to ensure fairness, no extensions will be given. Notification of review decisions will be mailed by April 1, 2006. Camera-ready papers will be due April 16, 2006. DCOSS '06 Proceedings will be distributed at the Conference.
