The Fourth IEEE PerCom International Workshop on Sensor Networks and
Systems for Pervasive Computing (PerSeNS 2008)

http://www.ing.unipi.it/persens/

in conjunction with IEEE PerCom 2008 (http://www.percom.org/) March
17-21, 2008, Hong Kong

---------------------------------------------------------------------

CALL FOR PAPERS

Thanks to wireless sensor networks, pervasive computing environments are
becoming a reality. Wireless sensor networks are aggregates of sensor
nodes into sophisticated sensing, computational and communication
infrastructures. These new networks are having a significant impact (and
promises to have even more) on a wide array of applications ranging from
military, to scientific, to industrial, to health-care, to domestic,
establishing ubiquitous computing that will pervade society and redefine
the way in which we live and work.

The goal of this workshop is to provide a forum to exchange ideas,
discuss solutions, and share experiences among researchers,
professionals, and application developers both from industry and
academia. Original papers addressing both theoretical and practical
aspects of sensor networks are solicited. Papers describing prototype
and experimental implementations and deployment of sensor networks and
systems are particularly welcome.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

   - Sensor-based systems and applications

   - Operating systems

   - Middleware and software tools

   - Networking architectures and protocols

   - Data gathering, aggregation and dissemination

   - Topology control

   - Power management and energy-efficient design

   - Time synchronization

   - Location management

   - Sensor networks with mobile elements

   - Cross-layer architectures

   - Intelligent sensor nodes

   - Security and dependability issues

   - Modelling and performance evaluation

   - Measurements

PAPER SUBMISSION

Papers should contain original material and not be previously published,
or currently submitted for consideration elsewhere. Manuscripts must be
limited to 6 pages in IEEE 8.5x11 conference format, and formatted in
accordance with the IEEE Computer Society author guidelines
(ftp://pubftp.computer.org/Press/Outgoing/proceedings/INSTRUCT.HTM).

All submissions will be handled electronically. Authors should prepare a
PDF file and submit it according to the submission instructions that
will be made available at the workshop website. Accepted papers will be
published by the IEEE Computer Society in the combined PerCom 2008
workshops proceedings.
