*** GreenComNet 2013: International Summer School on Green Communication and Networking: ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR APPLICATIONS *** Greetings! We are delighted to announce the GreenComNet International Summer School on Green Communication and Networking. The school will be held at Northeastern University (http://www.northeastern.edu/), Boston campus, from May 28 to May 31 2013. The event is sponsored by the U.S.A. NSF/India DeItY GENIUS project (Green Sensor Networks for Air Quality Support). The event aims at educating post-graduate and doctoral students by providing a forum for discussion and technical presentations on the emerging algorithms and applications of sensor networks for sustainable monitoring purposes. The focus on cyber-physical applications aims at providing insight into the future of sensor technology, and at identifying possible scenarios that might translate into new directions for research. The focus on the algorithmic aspects of sensor networking aims at overcoming the current issues related to energy and resource management that are necessary to tackle the practical implementation of such systems. World-renowned experts will lecture on topics covering sensor device architectures, network protocols and application scenarios. Speakers include Deepak Ganesan (UMass Ahmerst), Jim Kurose (UMass Ahmerst), Tommaso Melodia (The State University of New York, Buffalo), Joshua Smith (UWashington, Seattle), Ashish Sha (Analog Devices), Gil Zussman (Columbia University) and the members of the GENIUS team, Stefano Basagni (Northeastern University), Kaushik R. Chowdhury (Northeastern University), Swades De (IIT Delhi), Wendi Heinzelman (University of Rochester) and Soumya Jana (IIT, Hyderabad). For further information on the event and location of the Summer School, and to apply to the school, please go to this link: http://www.coe.neu.edu/Events/GeniusSchool/. Application: The school is open to students that at the time of the school are either enrolled or have been admitted to a graduate program. Up to seven graduate students from American institutions will be supported for travel (tickets on American carriers for up to $500) and lodging at Northeastern University. They will also receive vouchers for daily meals. Students that are interested in applying for support should send their current CV and a one-page statement on why attending this summer school would benefit them in their current research and future career. A letter of endorsement from a supervising faculty or advisor is also requested for the application. The school is also open to any other graduate students who can participate self-supported. These students should also apply as described above, admission being limited to no more than 20 students. Please, submit your application, or address any question regarding the application, via e-mail at [email protected] with subject: "GreenComNet 2013 Application: Your Last Name." We look forward to your participation!
