CALL FOR POSTERS
IEEE International Conference on Distributed Computing in Sensor Systems (DCOSS) June 30 - July 1, 2005 Marina del Rey, California, USA
www.dcoss.org
The 2005 International Conference on Distributed Computing in Sensor Systems (DCOSS '05) will take place in Marina del Rey during June 30 - July 1, 2005.
DCOSS '05 is intended to cover several aspects of distributed computing in sensor systems such as high level abstractions, computational models, systematic design methodologies, algorithms, analysis and applications. The conference will provide a forum for researchers and practitioners to present their contributions related to the above high-level aspects of distributed sensor systems.
DCOSS 05 received 85 high quality submissions, of which 26 were accepted, as a result of a thorough review by the Program Committee. The list of accepted papers and the tentative program can be found at the DCOSS WEB page (http://www.dcoss.org/dcoss05/).
-------------------------------------------------------------------- POSTER SUBMISSION DEADLINE: March 29, 2004 --------------------------------------------------------------------
The IEEE International Conference on Distributed Computing in Sensor Systems (DCOSS 05) solicits posters that report on recent original results or on-going research in the area of wireless sensor networks.
Authors are encouraged to submit interesting results on all aspects of wireless sensor networks, including algorithms, systems and applications. 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
Poster presentations will provide authors with early feedback on their research work and enable them to exchange ideas during the Conference.
All posters will be reviewed.
Accepted Posters will be included in the Springer Verlag/Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) DCOSS 05 Proceedings (1 page per poster). Also, a separate hardcopy Poster Proceedings volume published by CTI Press and Ellinika Grammata, that will be distributed during the Conference, will include 10 pages per poster.
Posters will be on display during the Conference. Displayed posters should consist of (more or less) no more than 8 A4 pages or 4 A3 pages.
A quick overview of the posters will be given during Poster Sessions I and II in the Conference Program.
At specific times during the Conference an author of a poster paper must be present to answer questions about their posters.
Submission Instructions: -------------------------------
Poster proposals must be submitted as a single pdf file not exceeding 6 single-spaced and single-column pages using 12-point size font. Authors can put additional material at a clearly marked Appendix. Submitted papers must follow the general IEEE conference page format (the corresponding LATEX style file can be found at http://www.isit2005.org/IEEEtran.cls).
All submitted posters will be judged based on their originality, technical contribution and, particularly, their potential to generate interesting exchange of ideas.
The deadline for poster submissions is March 29, 2005. Authors will be notified of acceptance/rejection by April 7, 2005.
Posters should be submitted under the assumption that, if accepted, at least one of the authors will register for the meeting and present the poster.
Please submit your poster paper pdf file as an email attachment to the Poster Chair Prof. Sotiris Nikoletseas at the address:
dcoss05-posters@cti.gr
before the deadline.
