CALL FOR WORKSHOPS PROPOSALS
Fourth IEEE International Conference on Mobile Ad-Hoc and Sensor Systems
MASS 2007
(http://cnd.iit.cnr.it/mass2007/)
Pisa, Italy, October 8-11, 2007
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --
**** Workshop Proposals Deadline --- February 9, 2007 ****
Sponsored by
IEEE and IEEE Computer Society
Co-sponsored by the IEEE TCCC and the IEEE TCPP
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --
IEEE MASS 2007 will be the fourth annual conference on the rapidly expanding
area of multi-hop wireless computing and sensor networking, and will provide
an exciting platform for discussing research vision of a digitally networked
wireless environment.
The MASS Organizing Committee invites proposals for one-day workshops
affiliated with the conference.
The workshops will be held prior to, or after, the main conference.
The purpose of these workshops is to provide a platform for presenting novel
ideas and more specific research areas in a less formal and possibly more
focused way than at the conference itself.
Please visit http://www.cse.fau.edu/mass2006/workshops.html to view
information on workshops held last year at MASS 2006.
Workshops Proposals are solicited in all areas and topics pertaining to
ad-hoc wireless and sensor networking research and applications, including,
but not limited to, theoretical performance bounds for ad-hoc networks,
sensor and wireless network and application security/privacy, mesh networks,
middleware platforms and applications of specific techniques (e.g., control
theory or biological networks) to wireless networks.
We expect all selected workshops to adhere to a common paper submission and
reviewing schedule outlined below. All papers included in the MASS 2007
workshops will appear in the MASS 2007 Proceedings published by IEEE.
-------------------------------
Proposal Submission Guidelines:
