CALL FOR POSTERS and DEMOS
*Deadline: 4/15/2007, 5 pm EDT (Extended)*
IEEE SECON 2007 The Fourth IEEE International Conference on Sensors, Mesh and Ad Hoc Communications and Networks
Merged with IEEE International Workshop on Wireless Ad-hoc
and Sensor Networks (IWWAN)
http://www.ieee-secon.org/2007/
Sponsored by IEEE Communications Society (www.comsoc.org)
Corporate Patrons: NOKIA, France Telecom, Motorola, Cal(IT)2 and Coronis Systems
June 18-21, 2007
San Diego, California, USA
************************************************************************
To provide a forum for discussion and personal interaction between
presenter and participants, IEEE SECON 2007 will include poster and
demonstration sessions: works in progress, industry demonstrations of
new applications and techniques, practical implementations, military,
industrial and commercial developments, research testbeds and
demonstrations, recent research/implementation results, upcoming
research challenges, future directions, and novel approaches in the
fields of sensor, mesh and ad hoc communications and networks. One of
the key goals of this conference is to foster collaboration between
industry, government agencies and academia. Hence, participation of
researchers/developers from industry or governement agencies and
posters/demonstrations reporting joint work are especially encouraged.
Topics considered for posters and demo include but are not limited
to:
* New architectures and
protocols to support
communication, localization,
time synchronization,
routing, data dissemination,
and other distributed
services in heterogeneous,
large-scale distributed,
mesh networks and sensor networks
* Novel algorithms and
theories for management,
supervisory control, and monitoring of
distributed ad
hoc networks, and techniques for
the interpretation
and use of sensor data in decision-making
processes
* Modeling and performance evaluation of
large-scale
distributed ad hoc and sensor
networks, practical
implementations and
deployments, and real-world
experiences
* Theories and models on fundamental
information and
communication aspects of
wireless mesh and sensor
networks
* Mechanisms for authenticated, secure communication and
data dissemination in sensor and mesh networks
* Algorithms and protocols to support quality of service
in mesh and sensor
networks, including admission
control, resource allocation
and fairness, and
capacity planning
* Integration of sensors into
engineered systems,
including novel techniques for
on-sensor renewable
power sources,
mechanisms for on-sensor
self-calibration and
self-testing, and efficient
schemes to maximize accuracy and minimize false
alarms
* Hardware platforms incorporating multiple
sensors,
computation, actuation, and wireless interfaces
* Software platforms, middleware, and tools for mesh and
sensor network applications
development, deployment,
and management
Submissions should be in the form of an abstract describing the main
contributions of the poster/demo. If available, preliminary results
can also be included. Abstracts will be evaluated mainly based on
their potential to stimulate interesting discussions, exchange of
ideas and promote collaborations. Accepted abstracts will be
published in IEEE Xplore.
Up to three best posters will be given the opportunity to be presented
at the main conference. There will also be a best demo award and
a best poster award judged by a panel of academic and/or venture
capital participants.
Submissions should not be more than three pages (preferably IEEE
conference format, 2-column) in length. Demonstration submissions
should include the space requirements and/or any other
equipment-specific requirements. The documents must contain the
authors' names, affiliations, and contact information and the
designated corresponding author.
Accepted authors of posters/demos will have a space in the poster/demo
session room to display their posters or exhibit their demos and
describe their work in discussions with interested attendees.
IEEE Communications Society policy states that all accepted SECON 2007
posters/demos must have at least one registration at the regular
rate. For authors co-authoring multiple posters/demos, one regular
registration is valid for up to three presentations. In addition,
there needs to be at least one person per poster/demo registered for
one day by 6/4/2007 in order for the abstract to appear in IEEE Xplore.
Submission will be accepted until 3/29/2007, 5 pm EDT for
demos and for posters. Please send the submission material to the
poster/demo chairs in pdf format, and make sure to include the first
author name and either POSTER or DEMO in the name of the pdf file:
