Purpose and Scope

 

SenSys 2004 introduces a high caliber forum for research on systems issues in the emerging area of embedded, networked sensors.  These distributed systems of numerous smart sensors and actuators will revolutionize a wide array of application areas by providing an unprecedented density and fidelity of instrumentation. They also present novel systems challenges because of resource constraints, uncertainty, irregularity, and scale.  SenSys design issues span multiple disciplines, including wireless communication, networking, operating systems, architecture, low-power circuits, distributed algorithms, data processing, scheduling, sensors, energy harvesting, and signal processing. SenSys seeks to provide a cross-disciplinary venue for researchers addressing these networked sensor system design issues. SenSys 2004 is the second in a series of annual meetings with a highly selective single-track technical program and a hands-on research exhibition.

 

Technical papers describing original, previously unpublished research are solicited. In general this conference is interested in papers that address system issues in embedded networked systems. Specific topics of interest include the following:

 

- Network protocols for sensor networks

- Operating system and middleware for sensor networks

- Applications of distributed sensor networks

- Sensor network testbed measurements and benchmarks

- Distributed database processing in sensor networks

- Distributed algorithms for sensor networks

- Novel sensor node hardware and software platforms

- Sensor network planning and deployment

- Energy management in sensor networks

- Adaptive topology management

- In-network processing and aggregation

- Data storage in sensor networks

- Distributed and collaborative signal processing

- Distributed actuation, control, and coordination

- Localization in time and space

- Distributed calibration in sensor networks

- Simulation and optimization tools

- Security

- Fundamental limits and tradeoffs

- Robustness

- Algorithms for self-configuration, maintenance, stabilization

- Programming and validation methodology
