BEST PAPER AWARD INLCUDED
Advances in technology have made deployment of miniature sensors a realistic proposition. Low-power, inexpensive smart devices with multiple on-board sensors are connected through wireless links so as to form a collaborative sensor network to perform a
specific task. As a result, it opens up a new paradigm of ubiquitous computing and enables a range of applications that are previously unrealizable or too costly to be realized. However, given the limitation of on-board hardware, one of the key areas
towards achieving superior performance is through software implementation. The workshop is intended to bring together industry experts and researchers to share novel techniques, algorithms and software implementation for sensor networks, and to discuss
the current status, technical challenges, standards, fundamental issues, and future services and applications in the form of panels and technical presentation. Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following:
1. Operating System
2. Efficient algorithms
3. Protocol design considerations
4. Performance analysis
5. Performance related issues
6. Cross-layered design considerations
7. Sensor applications and their impact on sensor network architectures
8. Deployment issues and scenarios
9. Middleware
10. Sensor network security
11. Sensor network design and modeling

SCOPE
------------------------------------------------------
Telecommunication infrastructures play a vital role in modern society. Advances in the range of network service
offerings, performance, quality of service, security, and ubiquity continue to flourish, despite global economy
fluctuations. Access to experimental infrastructures for real-life applications by specific user communities benefits all of the stakeholders involved: the end users,
because of the first-hand evaluation of the provided services, the researchers and infrastructure experimenters, because of the knowledge gained from hands-on study and
analysis, and the service providers, because of the business exploitation of the network. The goal of
TridentCom is to create a forum where telecommunication networks researchers, vendors, providers and users can
exchange ideas on past experience, requirements, needs, and visions for future establishment of such infrastructures.
It showcases experimental activities, such as testing, verification, integration, measurement, and deployment,
which are pivotal to achieving next generation communications.
PAPER SUBMISSION
------------------------------------------------------
Prospective authors are invited to submit high quality
papers as well as demonstration proposals reporting on all
aspects of test bed and research infrastructure operation and management, including, but not limited to:
* Next Generation Internet Test beds
* Next Generation Wireless Network Test beds
* Next Generation Optical Network Test beds
* Ubiquitous Network Test beds
* Wireless Sensor Test beds

ABOUT ITA
Brazil's most selective Engineering school, ITA accepts
yearly only about 150 students out of more than 8000 applicants.
ITA is one of the few schools in Brazil that recruits students
nationally and offers a residential campus where most students
and faculty live. All students receive full scholarship from the
Brazilian government. ITA's rigorous undergraduate programs are
5 years long and lead directly to professional degrees in
Aeronautical, Electronics, Computer, Mechanical, or Civil
Engineering. Average scores of ITA Electronics and Computer
Engineering students in national comprehensive examinations
for graduating engineers have consistently been the highest
in Brazil.
ITA was founded in 1950 as the initial institute in Brazil's
Aerospace Technical Center (CTA), Latin America's largest
research center. CTA's planner and ITA's first provost was
Richard H. Smith, who previously headed the Aeronautics department
at MIT. ITA was the first institution to offer Aeronautical and
Electronics Engineering degrees and post-graduate degrees in
Brazil. Embraer, now the world's leading regional-jet manufacturer,
was spun off from ITA in 1969. ITA/CTA research in the 1970s is
also behind Brazil's highly successful renewable-energy program.
A majority of cars now sold in Brazil can use ethanol as fuel.
ITA pioneered Computer Science in Brazil with the construction
of the first computer in 1961 and Tercio Pacitti's best-selling
books on numerical methods in the 1960s and 1970s (he would
become ITA's provost in 1982). Computer Engineering was
organized as an independent ITA department in 1989.
