[ecoop-info] ACM SenSys 2013 - Call for Workshops

[SenSys'12 Publicity]

*************** Call for Workshop Proposals ***********************
ACM SenSys 2013, Roma, Italy
November 11-15, 2013

http://sensys.acm.org/2013/

The 11th ACM Conference on Embedded Networked Sensor Systems (SenSys
2013) is a highly selective, single-track forum for the presentation
of research results on systems issues in the area of embedded,
networked sensors. Distributed systems based on networked sensors and
actuators with embedded computation capabilities allow for an
instrumentation of the physical world at an unprecedented scale and
density, thus enabling a new generation of monitoring and control
applications. SenSys provides a cross disciplinary venue for
researchers addressing the rich space of networked sensor system
design issues to interact, present and exchange research results, and
demonstrate their work in a hands-on research exhibition.

The ideal workshop proposal should focus on a specific emerging
research  area that is of strategic and long-term interest to the
sensor systems community. Interdisciplinary efforts that  can leverage
the considerable sensor systems expertise in the SenSys community
while reaching out to  new application domains, emerging
technologies(e.g. energy harvesting, M2M communication), and data
analytics expertise to solve real-world sensing problems  are
particularly encouraged.  Workshops could have a combination  of
relevant invited talks from experts  in a field together with research
 papers and demos in the area.

The proposal should be no longer than three pages and should clearly
identify the name of the workshop, theme of the workshop, topic areas
of interest to define the scope, names and affiliation of main
organizers/program chairs and potential program committee members, the
name of the organizing committee member who will be the main point of
contact,  a tentative call for papers with workshop deadlines and
expected number of submissions and participants. The proposal should
also specify if this will be a full-day or half-day  workshop, and any
logistical needs (demos/audio/video projection etc).  If this workshop
has been held before, also include its history (number of submissions,
number of accepted papers, and number of attendees).

Please send proposals in PDF format by April 1st, 2013, 12:00 midnight
EST,  to the workshop chairs, Deepak Ganesan at cs.umass.edu  and Luca
Benini at unibo.it
