******************************** 
CALL FOR PAPERS

We seek technical papers describing original ideas, ground-breaking results 
and/or quantified system experiences involving sensor systems. SenSys takes a 
broad view of sensor systems to include any distributed system that interacts 
with the physical world.  Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, 
the following:

•        Experience with real-world deployments and applications
•        Resource management and OS support for sensing systems
•        Energy management and harvesting for long-term operation
•        Wireless communication systems and protocols for sensor networks
•        Sensor network measurement and characterization
•        Programming paradigms and models for distributed sensing
•        Sensor network debugging, fault-tolerance and reliability
•        Sensing, actuation and control in cyber-physical systems
•        Sensor systems leveraging mobile phones, RFIDs, robots, etc.
•        Distributed sensor data storage, retrieval, processing and management
•        Approaches to sensor network architecture
•        Sensor data quality, integrity, and trustworthiness
•        In-network data reduction, inference, and signal processing
•        Security and privacy in sensor networks
•        Time and location estimation and management

Submissions will be judged on originality, significance, clarity, relevance, 
and correctness. In addition to citing relevant, published work, authors must 
relate their submissions to relevant submissions of their own that are 
simultaneously under review for this or other venues.

Paper Submission Guidelines:
Submissions must be full papers, at most 14 single-spaced 8.5" x 11" pages, 
including figures, tables, and references, two-column format, using 10-point 
type on 12-point (single-spaced) leading, with a maximum text block of 7" wide 
x 9" deep with an intercolumn spacing of .25". Authors must make a good faith 
effort to anonymize their submissions. Papers that do not meet the size, 
formatting, and anonymization requirements will not be reviewed. The conference 
submission site will provide further details.
Accepted submissions will be available on the ACM digital library at least one 
week before the conference.

KEY DATES:
•        Paper Registration and Abstract:               April 1st, 2011, 11:59 
pm EST.
•        Paper Submission Deadline:                      April 8th, 2011, 11:59 
pm EST.
•        Notification of Paper Acceptance:              July 15th, 2011.

These are hard deadlines – no extensions will be granted.

**************************
CALL FOR POSTERS
The poster session at SenSys provides a forum for researchers to present their 
work and receive feedback from experts attending the conference. The areas of 
interest are the same of the main track (see the call for papers for details). 
We explicitly encourage submissions from students.
Two-page poster abstracts will appear in the conference proceedings.
Best Poster Award:
As with previous editions of SenSys, the best poster will receive an award.
Poster Submission Guidelines:
Posters must be submitted as a single PDF containing no more than 3 pages. The 
first two pages should contain an abstract describing the research content of 
the poster, along with title, authors, institutional affiliations and contact 
information. The title must start with “Poster Abstract:”. The third page 
should contain a thumbnail draft of the poster's contents. The submission link 
will be available on the SenSys 2011 website.

KEY DATES:
•        Poster submission deadline:                     August 1st, 2011, 
11:59pm EST,
•        Notification of acceptance:                         August 15th, 2011
•        Camera-ready abstract:                              August 29th, 2011

***************************
CALL FOR DEMOS
Sensys 2011 solicits demonstrations showing innovative research and 
applications. Demos which demonstrate working systems, new platforms and tools, 
innovative applications, path breaking ideas, and other revolutionary concepts 
related to SenSys are welcome. Submissions from both industry and universities 
are encouraged. Demos will be evaluated based on technical merit and innovation 
as well as their potential to stimulate interesting discussions and exchange of 
ideas.
 
Two-page demo abstracts will appear in the conference proceedings.
Best Demo Award(s)
During the conference, all demos will be evaluated based on technical merit, 
innovation, implementation completeness, and presentation quality to select the 
best demo(s). The selected demos will receive awards that will be announced 
during the conference.
Demo Submission Guidelines:
Demo abstracts have a two-page limit and must be formatted according to the 
guidelines provided for full paper submissions. The title of the submission 
should start with “Demo Abstract:.” The submission link will be available on 
the  SenSys 2011 website.

****************************
CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS
SenSys 2011 will host a small number of workshops. Workshops can either be full 
day or half day events, on the first day of the conference. The ideal workshop 
should focus on a specific area, be of current interest, and be able to attract 
a number of high-quality submissions.
Proposal Submission Guidelines:
The proposal should be no longer than three pages and should clearly identify 
the name of the workshop, theme of the workshop, topic areas of interest to 
define the scope, names and affiliation of main organizers/program chairs and 
potential program committee members, a tentative call for papers with workshop 
deadlines and expected number of submissions and participants. The proposal 
should also specify if this will be a full-day or half-day workshop, and any 
logistical needs (demos/audio/video projection etc).  If this workshop has been 
held before, also include its history (number of submissions, number of 
accepted papers, and number of attendees).
Please send proposals in PDF format by February 25th, 2011, 12:00 midnight EST, 
to the workshop chair, Kamin Whitehouse at [email protected]
KEY DATES:
•        Proposal submission deadline:                    February 25th, 2011
