The Third International Conference on Sensor Technologies and Applications
The SENSORCOMM 2009 (The Third International Conference on Sensor Technologies and Applications) is a multi-track event covering related topics on theory and practice on wired and wireless sensors and sensor networks.
Sensors and sensor networks have become a highly active research area because of their potential of providing diverse services to broad range of applications, not only on science and engineering, but equally importantly on issues related to critical infrastructure protection and security, health care, the environment, energy, food safety, and the potential impact on the quality of all areas of life.
As a multi-track event, SENSORCOMM 2009 will serve as a forum for researchers from the academia and the industry, professionals, standard developers, policy makers and practitioners to exchange ideas. The topics could be on techniques and applications, best practices, awareness and experiences as well as future trends and needs (both in research and practices) related to all aspects of information security, security systems and technologies.
Sensor networks and sensor-based systems support many applications today on the ground. Underwateroperations and applications are quite limited by comparison. Most applications refer to remotely controlled submersibles and wide-area data collection systems at a coarse granularity.
The conference has the following independents tracks:
- APASN: Architectures, protocols and algorithms of sensor networks
- MECSN: Energy, management and control of sensor networks
- RASQOFT: Resource allocation, services, QoS and fault tolerance in sensor networks
- PESMOSN: Performance, simulation and modelling of sensor networks
- SEMOSN: Security and monitoring of sensor networks
- SECSED: Sensor circuits and sensor devices
- RIWISN: Radio issues in wireless sensor networks
- SAPSN: Software, applications and programming of sensor networks
- DAIPSN: Data allocation and information in sensor networks
- DISN: Deployments and implementations of sensor networks
We welcome technical papers presenting research and practical results, position papers addressing the pros and cons of specific proposals, such as those being discussed in the standard fora or in industry consortia, survey papers addressing the key problems and solutions on any of the above topics short papers on work in progress, and panel proposals.
The topics suggested by the conference can be discussed in term of concepts, state of the art, standards, implementations, running experiments and applications. Authors are invited to submit complete unpublished papers, which are not under review in any other conference or journal in the following, but not limited topic areas. Industrial presentations are not subject to these constraints. Tutorials on specific related topics and panels on challenging areas are encouraged.
