Statistics + history
by Otto Spaniol 16 Sep '05

16 Sep '05

Dear all, our attendance statistics for meeting 2005/2 has improved: already 21 delegates promised to attend (see attachment). I'm still waiting for responses from some of you; see below. We might or should expect some 10 more attendees out of this sublist, in particular from the different Working Groups(!). Concerning our meeting location, namely Wroclaw (a really wonderful city, you'll be delighted!), I found a really interesting comment in my absolutely favoured travel guide, i.e. the Lonely Planet, who describes one of Wroclaw's hotels (namely the hotel Monopol - this is not our hotel for the meeting) as follows: "Wroclaw's oldest hotel has seen quite a few famous faces in its century-plus lifetime, not least a certain Herr Hitler, who used to rant from the balcony during the German occupation." ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ "During the German occupation" of a town who came 1741 to Prussia after having been in the Habsburg empire for more than two centuries..." Who said that history can be interpreted differently depending on the viewpoint of the historian? ;-) ;-) ;-) Best wishes Otto -------------------------------------------------------------- No answers yet received concerning participation from: Theorode Apostolopoulos Greece Javier Diaz Argentina Hong Doan Australia Imad Sabooni Syria Raouf Boutaba WG 6.6 Lyman Chapin USA, ACM Dominique Gaiti WG 6.7 Elie Najm WG 6.1 Guy Omidyar WG 6.8 Giancarlo Prati Italy Guy Pujolle WG 6.2 Ioannis Stavrakakis WG 6.3 Samir Tohmé France Janez Bester Slovenia John Derrick WG 6.1 Villy Baek Iversen Denmark Dipak Khakhar Sweden Miquel Nicolau i Vila Andorra Harry Perros WG 6.10 Boon Sain Yeo Singapore

CFP -- SensorWare 2006 (Dates changed)
by Yeo Boon Sain 15 Sep '05

15 Sep '05

(My apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message) *********************************************************** 1st International Workshop on Software for Sensor Networks (SensorWare) CFP *********************************************************** Welcome to the 1st International Workshop on Software for Sensor Networks (SensorWare) to be held on the 8 January 2006. The workshop is held in conjunction with COMSWARE 2006 in the beautiful and historical city of New Delhi. Advances in technology have made deployment of miniature sensors a realistic proposition. These sensors are low-power, inexpensive, smart devices with multiple on-board sensors, and 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 the software implementation. The workshop is intended for the presentation and discussion of novel algorithms and software implementation for sensor networks. This workshop, intends to bring together engineering experts and academicians 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: Operating System Efficient algorithms Protocol design Performance analysis Performance related issues Sensor applications Deployment issues and scenarios Middleware Sensor security Sensor network design and modeling Workshop co-chairs: Nirmala Shenoy (ns(a)rit.edu), RIT, USA Boon Sain Yeo (boonyeo(a)ieee.org), Institute for Infocomm Research, Singapore TPC Members: Holger Karl, University of Paderborn, Germany, Ling-Jyh Chen, Academia Sinica, Taiwan Kui Wu, University of Victoria, Canada, Daeyoung Kim, ICU, Korea Leonard Barolli, Fukuoka Institute of Technology, Japan, Wei-Peng, Fujitsu Labs of America, USA Jason Redi, BBN Technologies, USA Biao Chen, Syracuse University, USA Hairong Qi, University of Tennessee, USA Xiaojun Cao, Rochester Institute of Technology, USA Xin Wang, University of Buffalo, USA James Minseok Kwon, RIT, USA Wenye Wang, North Carolina State University, USA Fei Hu, RIT, USA Robin Chellappa, Deakin Univeristy, Australia Technical Papers has to be submitted to the co-chairs at boonyeo(a)ieee.org. Papers should be written in English and should preferably follow the instructions in template.pdf. Preferred maximum paper length is 6 printed pages (10-point font) including figures. Important Dates: Paper Submission Deadline: 1 Oct 2005 Notification Acceptance/Rejection: 1 Nov 2005 Final Camera-Ready Paper Submission: 1 Dec 2005 Please visit the workshop website at http://www.sensorware.org for more info.
