The 13th ACM/IEEE International Conference on Information Processing in Sensor
Networks (IPSN 2014) draws upon many disciplines including networking, signal
and image processing, information and coding theory, databases,
information management, distributed algorithms,embedded systems, wireless
communications, and machine learning. In addition to full-length technical
papers, IPSN welcomes exciting demonstrations of novel sensor network
technology, applications, and hardware as well as posters showing promising
early work. IPSN seeks participation from both industry and academia for
demonstrations and posters.<br>
<br>
Selection of demonstration and posters will be based on a short abstract,
evaluated based on technical merit and innovation as well as the potential to
stimulate interesting discussions and exchange of ideas at the conference.
Accepted abstracts will appear in the regular conference proceedings. At least
one author of every accepted demonstration or poster abstract is required to
register and attend the conference.<br>
<br>
Demonstration abstracts should be at most 2 pages in length, and submitted in
PDF format by following the IPSN regular-paper formatting guidelines.
Abstracts need not be anonymous. Please refer to the IPSN regular-paper
submission instructions for additional details. Poster abstracts should follow
the same format but should include a thumbnail of the planned poster as a third
page.<br>
<br>
Due to the short interval between the notification of acceptance and the
camera-ready deadline, we strongly encourage authors to follow the camera-ready
formatting guidelines as close as possible even for the initial abstract
submission.<br>
<br>

IMPORTANT DATES<br>
------------------------------<br>
<br>
Poster and demo submission deadline: ***********<br>
January 30, 2014 (11.59 PM, US PDT)************* EXTENDED!<br>
Notification of acceptance: February 4, 2014<br>
Camera-ready abstracts due: February 9, 2014<br>
<br>
------------------------------<br>
DEMOS<br>
------------------------------<br>
<br>
Demo abstracts should describe both the technology being showcased as well as
the user experience of the demo. Tables, power, and wireless connectivity will
be provided. If a demo requires additional special arrangements, please
describe them clearly in your submission using a separate third page (not part
of the technical content of the abstract). The authors of the accepted
demos will be invited to submit an optional short video together with the
camera-ready version of the abstract. The videos will be linked from the
conference program on the IPSN 2014 home page. If you have any questions,
please contact the demo co-chairs: Vlado Handziski (<a href="mailto:handziski@tkn.tu-berlin.de" target="_blank"><span style="color:blue">handziski@tkn.tu-berlin.de</span></a>) and Roozbeh Jafari (<a href="mailto:rjafari@utdallas.edu" target="_blank"><span style="color:blue">rjafari@utdallas.edu</span></a>).<br>
<br>
------------------------------<br>
POSTERS<br>
------------------------------<br>
<br>
Poster abstracts should report on research work where at least some preliminary
results are available, but they need not necessarily describe completed work.
An easel will be provided for all posters. If you have any questions, please
contact the poster co-chairs: Tommaso Melodia (<a href="mailto:tmelodia@eng.buffalo.edu" target="_blank"><span style="color:blue">tmelodia@eng.buffalo.edu</span></a>)

PHD FORUM - CALL FOR EXTENDED ABSTRACTS<br>
------------------------------<br>
<br>
IPSN 2014 - the 13th ACM/IEEE Int. Conference on Information Processing in
Sensor Network (co-located with CPSWEEK 2014) - will host a PhD Forum on Sensor
Network Research. The Forum will provide an opportunity for PhD students to
present their dissertation research, including work in progress, to the sensor
network community and obtain individual feedback from leading researchers in
the field. The Forum will be structured as a series of short presentations by
the students, followed by individual discussions, feedback, and advise.
Participating students will also have the opportunity to present a poster
during the main conference to leverage further interaction with CPSWEEK
attendees.<br>
<br>
Current PhD students in the early stages of their career are encouraged to
submit a 2-page extended abstract about their dissertation research in sensor
networking to be considered for the PhD Forum. The abstract shall also include
a one-paragraph bio of the student, along with information on how long he/she
has been in PhD school and the expected time until graduation. The student
should be the sole author, although contributions of the advisor and others
should be acknowledged. Submissions will be reviewed by the PhD Forum committee
to ensure quality, relevance, and potential benefit from attendance to the
Forum. Authors of accepted submissions are expected to participate in person to
the Forum and to present a poster both at the Forum and at the main conference.
