Call for Papers
The 2nd International Workshop on
Information Processing in Sensor Networks (IPSN'03)
Sponsored by:
NSF, DARPA, PARC
Technically co-sponsored by:
IEEE Signal Processing Society
IEEE Circuits and Systems Society
IEEE Computer Society (pending)
April 22-23, 2003
Palo Alto Research Center (PARC), Palo Alto, California, USA
http://www.parc.com/ecca/ipsn03
* Submission Deadline: December 2, 2002 *
Following the successful first Workshop on Collaborative Signal and
Information Processing in Sensor Networks (www.parc.com/cosense/csp),
this new workshop will bring together researchers from academia,
industry, and government to present and discuss recent work on
information processing techniques and applications for sensor
networks.
Information processing in sensor networks is an interdisciplinary
research area with deep connections to signal processing, networking
and protocols, data bases and information management, as well as
distributed algorithms. Because of advances in MEMS micro-sensors,
wireless networking, and embedded processing, ad-hoc networks of
sensors are becoming increasingly available for commercial and
military applications such as environmental monitoring (e.g., traffic,
habitat, security), industrial sensing and diagnostics (e.g., factory,
appliances), infrastructures (e.g., power grids, water distribution,
waste disposal), and battlefield awareness (e.g., multi-target
tracking).
From the engineering and computing point of view, sensor networks
become a rich source of problems in communication protocols, sensor
tasking and control, sensor fusion, distributed data bases,
probabilistic reasoning, algorithmic design, system/software
architecture, and design methodologies. This workshop will take a
systemic approach to address cross-layer issues, from the physical
sensor layer, to the sensor signal processing and networking levels,
and then all the way to the applications. It will bring together
experts working on various aspects of sensor networks such as
information organization, querying, routing, and self-organization,
with an emphasis on the high-level information processing tasks that
these networks are designed to perform.
Topical areas of sensor networks include, but not limited to:
* Array signal processing
* Coding and information theory
* Detection, classification, and estimation
* Distributed networked sensing and control
* Embedded architectures and tools
* Energy and resource management
* In-network processing and routing
* Programming models and languages
* Query processing and optimization
* Real-time resource scheduling
* Security
* Sensor tasking and control
* Sensor fusion
* Simulation tools and environments
* Target tracking
* Applications (e.g., automotive, battlefield, biology,
construction, disaster recovery, environmental, medical,
security)
In addition to contributed papers, invited speakers from key areas
will cover fundamental research issues and applications for sensor
network information processing.
