Call for paper--Sepcial session of IE'07
by Zhiwen Yu 22 Jan '07

22 Jan '07

-------------------- Call for Papers -------------------- Special Session: Data Dissemination and Communication Protocols in Sensor Networks The Third IET International Conference on Intelligent Environments (IE'07), the University of Ulm, Germany, September 24-25, 2007. Website - http://www.uni-ulm.de/ie07/ (Special Sessions, Session #1) ------------- Description ------------- Sensor networks are used in various pervasive and ubiquitous applications. These networks usually consist of a large number of sensors that are deployed at remote and inaccessible places. As most of the sensors are wireless, energy-efficient data dissemination and communication protocols are needed; otherwise, batteries will rapidly drain and network connectivity and coverage will become unacceptable. On one hand, we want the sensor nodes to be active and monitor the environment. On the other hand, we want the sensor nodes to conserve their energy by sleeping significant amount of time. Further, depending on the application, robustness and responsiveness can be very critical. The objective of this special session is to provide an opportunity for academic researchers and industry practitioners to present and discuss experiences, emerging applications, and research results for data dissemination and communication protocols in sensor networks. --------- Topics --------- Topics include but not are limited to the following: - Energy-efficient data dissemination - Databases and query optimization - Routing protocols - Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols - Connectivity and coverage - Topology and Sleep Scheduling - Robustness - Security, privacy, and trust - Smart homes - Software design and architectures - Intelligent agent architectures - Machine learning and distributed data mining - Pervasive and ubiquitous systems and services - Industrial experience and emerging applications - Instructions for Manuscripts ------------ Submission ------------ Authors are requested to submit a PDF file for their manuscript following the submission guideline available at http://www.uni-ulm.de/ie07/. All manuscripts should be submitted through the conference submission system and choosing the area of the special session. The papers should also be emailed to the special session organizer for reference. 03-15-2007 - Paper Submission Deadline 05-15-2007 - Notification of acceptance/rejection 06-15-2007 - Camera ready papers due 07-15-2007 - Deadline for early bird registration --------- Contact --------- For more information please contact: Peter Graham, pgraham(a)cs.umanitoba.ca, University of Manitoba, Canada; Sajid Hussain, sajid.hussain(a)acadiau.ca, Acadia University, Canada --------------------------- Dr. Zhiwen YU Information Technology Center, Nagoya University Furo-cho, Chikusa-ku, Nagoya 464-8601, Japan Tel: (+81)052-789-5910 Mobile: (+81)090-9891-1552 Email: zhiwen(a)itc.nagoya-u.ac.jp http://www.ulan.jp/~zhiwen/ ---------------------------

================================================================= Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this Call for Papers ================================================================= IMPORTANT DATES: Paper registration deadline: April 2, 2007 Paper submission deadline: April 9, 2007 ================================================================= LCN 2007 The 32nd Annual IEEE Conference on Local Computer Networks (LCN) http://www.ieeelcn.org Sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society (pending) with support from the Telecommunications Software & Systems Group (TSSG)/ Waterford Institute of Technology Dublin, Ireland October 15-18, 2007 CALL FOR PAPERS LCN invites you to Europe for the second time in its history! The IEEE LCN conference is the premier conference on the leading edge of practical computer networking. LCN is a highly interactive conference that enables an effective interchange of results and ideas among researchers, users, and product developers. During 32 years of this conference, major developments from high-speed local networks to the global Internet to specialized sensor networks have been reported at this conference. We encourage you to submit original papers describing research results or practical solutions in leading edge topics. Paper topics include, but are not limited to: Ad hoc and sensor networks Adaptive applications Embedded networks Authentication, authorization, accounting High-speed access networks Congestion and flow control Home and SOHO networks Context-aware network services IPv6 networks IPv6 deployment and migration Local area networks Mobility management Optical networks Multimedia and real-time communication Overlay networks Network management Peer-to-peer networks Network reliability and security Personal and wearable networks Network traffic characterization Storage area networks Performance evaluation/engineering Ubiquitous networking Performance measurement and tuning Wireless networks Quality-of-Service provisioning Authors are invited to submit full or short papers for presentation at the conference. Full papers (no more than 8 camera-ready pages, 10 pt font in IEEE transactions format) should present novel perspectives within the general scope of the conference. Short papers are an opportunity to present preliminary or interim results and are limited to 2 camera-ready pages in length. Short papers will be presented in a poster format and are published in the proceedings. All papers must include title, complete contact information for all authors, abstract, and keywords on the cover page. PAPER SUBMISSION: Papers must be submitted electronically in PDF. All submission instructions will be posted on the conference website.
