<div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Calibri,sans-serif">---------------</font></div>
<div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Calibri,sans-serif">During the past years, the International Conference on Networked Sensing Systems (INSS) has established itself as a scientific event where academic and industrial experts from the areas of next generation
sensor systems, sensor network applications, and measurement and control engineering come together. The INSS provides a forum to hear about the latest developments in these areas, to exchange ideas, and to start up collaborations within these fields and between
industry and academia.</font></div>
<div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Calibri,sans-serif"><br>
</font></div>
<div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Calibri,sans-serif">INSS 2012 is the ninth annual conference in the series, and features a highly selective technical program. We invite outstanding research papers from the field of sensor technology, wireless networking,
or applications of networked sensor systems. The conference especially encourages submissions that investigate research issues shared between all the three areas.</font></div>
<div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Calibri,sans-serif"><br>
</font></div>
<div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Calibri,sans-serif">INSS 2012 invites the submission of regular, short, and industry papers. All submissions will be peer-reviewed and evaluated on the basis of originality, significance of contribution, technical correctness,
and presentation. Papers submitted must not be under simultaneous review for any other conference, journal, workshop, or other publication. All accepted papers will be published at IEEE Xplore digital library. Authors are required to attend the conference
to present their work.</font></div>

industrial network applications, networks for safety related systems and applications, different security aspects in networks fault tolerant and redundant networks and many others. This session focuses on innovative, new and interesting network applications
and research results for industries or developments which will be important in the near future. The industry track intends to provide discussion for practitioners, developers, and researchers in order to examine practical issues.?Industry papers are suitable
for industry researchers to present not only technical, but also practical issues surrounding production, deployment, and commercialisation of networked sensing technology. Industry papers must be 2-4 pages long (two-column format) and include an abstract
of 100-150 words. Papers should be formatted according to the IEEE transactions format. The submitted industry papers will be reviewed by industry track TPC members and accepted papers will be presented in the main conference's industry track session. The
industry track aims at providing a forum among practitioners, developers, and researchers to discuss practical issues including but not limited to:</font></div>
