[Our apologizes if you receive multiple copies of this CFC] [CFP] Call for Chapters on Localization in Wireless Sensor Networks
Book Title: Localization Algorithms and Strategies for Wireless Sensor Networks: Monitoring and Surveillance Techniques for Target Tracking Book webpage: http://www.ee.usyd.edu.au/~guoqiang/Research/BookOnLocalizationAlgorithms.htm Editors: Guoqiang Mao and Baris Fidan Publishing Details: This book will be published by IGI Global http://www.igi-pub.com/ in 2008. Introduction Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) constitute a significant technology of today, attracting considerable research interest from various disciplines. Self-localization capability is a highly desirable characteristic of wireless sensor networks. In environmental monitoring applications such as bush fire surveillance, water quality monitoring and precision agriculture, the measurement data are meaningless without knowing the location from where the data are obtained. Moreover, location estimation may enable a myriad of applications such as inventory management, intrusion detection, road traffic monitoring, health monitoring, reconnaissance and surveillance. This book intends to cover the fundamental theories, the state-of-the-art research findings, and experimental studies and applications of WSN localization techniques. We expect the book to serve as a valuable and comprehensive reference for students, educators, researchers, and engineers who work in this rapidly evolving field. Recommended topics (not limited to) Measurements techniques used in WSN localization WSN localization algorithms Fundamental theories in WSN localization Graph theoretical analysis of characteristics of WSNs and application of such analysis to WSN localization Monitoring and surveillance techniques Experimental studies Applications of WSN localization techniques Invitation Prospective chapter authors are invited to submit, initially, a 1-2 page single column, single space proposal describing the proposed chapter in MS Word or RTF format. The proposal should include the title, the abstract, the chapter organization, number of pages of the final manuscript intended to be submitted and contact authors. Each chapter is planned to fit 15-25 letter-size pages (single column, single space, 12 pt font). However, (only) fundamental chapter proposals of comprehensive review/survey style will be allowed to be up to 40 pages. Chapter templates will be provided once the proposals are submitted and acceptance decisions are made. Important Dates Submission of Chapter Proposals: September 15, 2007 Notification of Proposal Acceptance: October 15, 2007 Full Chapter Submission: March 15, 2008 Review Reports Due: May 15, 2008 Final Version Submission: July 15, 2008 Contact ========================== Please make correspondence and proposal submissions to: Dr Guoqiang Mao School of Electrical and Information Engineering The University of Sydney NSW 2006, Australia Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Dr Baris Fidan National ICT Australia Locked Bag 8001 Canberra ACT 2601, Australia Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Tinyos-users mailing list [email protected] https://mail.millennium.berkeley.edu/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tinyos-users
