Meeting dates
by Otto Spaniol 23 Mar '06

23 Mar '06

Dear all, since several of you have asked in the past about the dates and the locations of the next meetings I append the corresponding part of the meeting minutes 2005/2 (the delegates' questions were another proof for the observation that nobody reads any minutes ;-) ). The locations in 2007 and 2008 are still for further discussion. However, a connection of the first meeting per year with the NetworkingXX conference is strongly recommended. The meeting in Coimbra should be started Friday around noon and it should end Saturday evening. Best regards Otto -------------------------------------------------------------------- Future TC6 meetings 2006/1 To be held in Coimbra, Portugal, Friday 19th and Saturday 20th May. 2006/2 - Please note the change of location and date for meeting 2006/2 This was originally agreed to be held in Santiago, Chile, in association with the WCC. For a variety of reasons, it has been agreed that it would be better to hold the full Autumn TC6 meeting in Paris on Friday 29th and Saturday 30th September. There will be a special (one day) TC6 meeting in Santiago de Chile concerning developing country questions; probably on Friday, 25th August 2006. 2007/1 To be held in Atlanta, United States, dates to be confirmed. 2007/2 To be held in South Africa, location and dates to be confirmed. 2008/1 To be held in the United Kingdom in May, location and precise dates to be confirmed.

ACM REALWSN'06: Deadline extended
by Thiemo Voigt 20 Mar '06

20 Mar '06

Dear colleagues, note that the deadline for the ACM Workshop on Real-World Wireless Sensor Networks (REALWSN'06) held in Uppsala, Sweden, June 19, in conjunction with ACM MobiSys has been extended to March 30, 9 AM (local Swedish time, MEST). Please find attached the call for papers. On behalf of the REALWSN'06 organizers Thiemo Voigt CALL FOR PAPERS ACM Workshop on Real-World Wireless Sensor Networks REALWSN'06 http://www.sics.se/realwsn06 June 19, 2006 Uppsala, Sweden In conjunction with ACM MobiSys 2006 Sponsored by ACM, ACM SIGMOBILE, VINNOVA, SICS and E-NEXT The purpose of the second Workshop on Real-World Wireless Sensor Networks is to bring together researchers and practitioners working in the area of sensor networks, with focus on real-world experiments or deployments of wireless sensor networks. When working with real-world experiments or deployments, many new issues arise: the network environment may be composed of a variety of different technologies, leading to very heterogeneous network structures; software development for large scale networks poses new types of problems; prototype networks may differ significantly from the deployed system; actual sensor network deployments may need a complex combination of autonomous and manual configuration. Authors are invited to submit papers (5 pages, double column) for presentation at the workshop. Papers will be selected based on originality, technical merit and relevance. All topics pertaining to real-world wireless sensor networks are of interest, including but not limited to: * Experiences with real-world deployments * Self-organization and self-management * Debugging, testing, and management * Deployment and configuration * Applications in medicine, industry, science, environmental monitoring, etc. * Security and trust * Scalability in practice * Development and prototyping platforms * Operating systems and programmability * Sensor network programming paradigms and languages * Middleware for heterogeneous networks * Real-time and dependability issues * Hardware support for real-world sensor networks * Robustness at all levels: communication, software, hardware * Energy efficient protocols * Methods for measuring and assessing energy consumption Important dates: Submission deadline (extended): March 30, 2006, 9 AM (local Swedish time,MEST) Notification of acceptance: April 20, 2006 Camera-ready copy due: May 1, 2006 Workshop: June 19, 2006 Workshop Chair: Bengt Ahlgren, Swedish Institute of Computer Science Technical program committee chairs: Pedro José Marron, University of Stuttgart, Germany Thiemo Voigt, Swedish Institute of Computer Science Local organization: Christian Rohner, Uppsala University, Sweden Technical program committee: Tarek Abdelzaher, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA Muneeb Ali, LUMS, Pakistan Leif Axelsson, Ericsson Microwave Systems, Sweden Sebnem Baydere, Yeditepe University, Turkey Zinaida Benenson, Uppsala University, Sweden Torsten Braun, University of Bern, Switzerland Mats Björkman, Mälardalen University, Sweden Jerker Delsing, Luleå University of Technology, Sweden Adam Dunkels, Swedish Institute of Computer Science, Sweden Per Gunningberg, Uppsala University, Sweden Holger Karl, University of Paderborn, Germany Chenyang Lu, Washington University in St. Louis, USA Fergus O'Reilly, Cork Institute of Technology, Ireland Hartmut Ritter, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany Christian Rohner, Uppsala University, Sweden Kay Römer, ETH Zürich, Switzerland Umar Saif, MIT, USA Jochen Schiller, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany Aruna Seneviratne, NICTA, Australia Cormac Sreenan, University College Cork, Ireland Ivan Stojmenovic, University of Ottawa, Canada Andras Veres, Ericsson Research, Hungary
