[Mycolleagues] Extended Deadline: First Workshop on Global Sensor Networks (GSN 09)

Extended deadline for paper submissions: 09/11/2008

CALL FOR PAPERS:
First Workshop on Global Sensor Networks (GSN 09)
Collocated with KiVS 09 in Kassel, Germany
http://ipvs.informatik.uni-stuttgart.de/vs/gsn09
March 6th, 2009


WORKSHOP SCOPE

Global sensor networks (GSN) are an emergent research area aiming to
offer applications easy and efficient access to sensor data at the scale
of billions of sensing devices. While a single sensor network typically
provides access to information of a limited geographical area and
selected types of sensor data, a GSN provides an application with
uniform and transparent access to a multitude of individual sensor
networks that may be geographically dispersed, aggregating and
correlating different types of data as appropriate for the application.
The challenges imposed by global sensor networks are relevant to many
fields in computer communications and distributed systems such as sensor
networks, complex event and stream processing, pervasive computing, and
P2P overlays. This workshop intends to bring together researchers and
practitioners working in relevant fields in order to share ideas,
challenges and visions on Global Sensor Networks as well as to foster
new cooperation.


WORKSHOP TOPICS

GSN'09 is looking for contributions related but not limited to the
following list of topics in the domain of Global Sensor Networks:
- Sensor network protocols
- Complex event processing
- Distributed stream processing
- P2P overlays
- Middleware
- Security
- Query processing and optimization
- Quality of service
- Applications


SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

Papers should be submitted in PDF format via the workshop page.
Contributions may present
i) novel and possibly preliminary research results (full papers 12
pages, short papers 6 pages) ,
ii) position papers describing major challenges (6 pages),
iii) new trends from the industry (2 pages).
Each submission will be reviewed by three members of the program
committee and are selected according to their originality, quality,
and relevance to the workshop topics. Accepted papers will appear in
the KIVS Workshop proceedings. For accepted papers at least one author
must register with the workshop and give a presentation at the workshop.
Submissions must follow the KIVS formatting guidelines and must not
exceed the given page limits. Note that contributions in English as
well as in German are welcome.
