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 Authors are invited to submit original unpublished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 5, 2007, by 5 p.m. U.S. Pacific Coast Time. Notification of
review decisions will be mailed by April 2, 2007. Camera-ready papers
will be due April 16, 2007.
DCOSS '07 Proceedings will be distributed at the Conference.

CALL FOR PAPER
26th IEEE International Performance Computing and Communications
Conference (IPCCC 2007) (http://www.ipccc.org/)
April 11-13, 2007 - New Orleans, Louisiana, USA
The International Performance, Computing, and Communications Conference
(IPCCC) is the premier IEEE conference presenting research in the
performance of computer and communication systems. For more than two
decades, IPCCC has been a research forum for academic, industrial, and
government researchers. The lively interactions among the researchers from
these emerging new fields provide a stimulating environment rich with new
ideas.
We encourage submission of high-quality papers reporting original
work in both theoretical and experimental research areas. Topics of
interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
Network Protocols Performance Evaluation & Modeling
Network Information Assurance Performance Tools & Techniques
Wireless Mobile Networking Processor architectures
Sensor & Ad-hoc Networking Processor & Memory Performance
Network Security Power-Aware Architectures
Network Management Workload Characterization and its
Internet Service impact on Architecture Design
Storage System Grid Computing
Embedded System High Performance Computing
In addition, proposals for panel sessions and workshops on relevant
topics are welcome. Workshops may be for a full day or half a day.
Workshop papers will be published in the conference proceedings.

All papers will be reviewed by the program committee They will be judged
with respect to their quality, originality, and relevance. All accepted
papers will be published in the conference proceedings, conditional upon
the author's advance registration. Note that one full (non-student)
registration fee must be paid for each paper published in the proceedings,
and that submission of a paper entails a professional obligation to attend
and present your paper at the conference if it is accepted.
Authors MUST submit their papers electronically using EDAS
(http://edas.info). The submission process involves the following three
steps:
(1) Creation of a personal account on EDAS (if the author does not already
have one)
(2) Registration of the paper (requiring a title and short abstract of up
to 150 words)
(3) Upload of the paper. The only permitted submission format is pdf
format.

WSW'2006 Workshop Program
First Workshop on World-Sensor-Web: Mobile Device Centric Sensory
Networks and Applications
Held in conjunction with ACM SenSys 2006
October 31, 2006
Boulder, Colorado, USA
http://www.sensorplanet.org/wsw2006/
The global use of mobile phones on a scale never seen before enables
the development of new types of application scenarios. Furthermore, a
mobile device centric approach to large-scale sensory networks
provides a challenging platform for research purposes. Additionally,
connecting sensory networks to the Internet creates endless
opportunities for applications and services, new emerging models of
operation.
The workshop aims to address these aspects, beside traditional
sensory network topics such as power management, communication
issues, topology management, distributed architectures, peer-to-peer
scenarios, etc. Demonstrations and initial ideas are welcome as well.
