FOURTH IEEE INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON PRACTICAL ISSUES IN
BUILDING SENSOR NETWORK APPLICATIONS
(in conjunction with IEEE LCN 2009)
Zurich, Switzerland
20 - 23 October 2009

CALL FOR PAPERS

Sensor nodes are tiny autonomous devices that combine sensing,
computing and wireless communication capabilities. These nodes are
deeply embedded into the physical surroundings, and gather and process
information such as temperature, humidity, light characteristics,
seismic activities or images and sound samples from the physical
world. Networked systems of such sensors are expected to be used in a
variety of applications including habitat monitoring, precision
agriculture, disaster recovery operations, healthcare and supply chain
management. Real-world sensor network deployments and prototypic
implementations are still not commonplace. However, experiences gained
in such deployments are crucial for the sensor network research
community. These results are needed to refine assumptions made when
designing hardware, software, protocols and mechanisms for sensor
networks.

This workshop aims at bringing together researchers from academia and
industry to showcase their work and obtain feedback. We expect the
workshop to act as a forum for the sensor network research community
to discuss open issues, novel solutions and the future development of
wireless sensor networks in general. We encourage contributions
describing innovative work in the realm of wireless sensor networks.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Experiences from real-world sensor network deployment and applications
Innovative sensor network applications
Participatory sensing
Middleware support for sensor networks
Programming and debugging sensor networks
Security, availability and dependability issues in sensor networks
Experiences with new sensor hardware
Practical problems in implementing localization and time synchronization
Experiences with communication protocols
Practical medium access control protocols (MACs)
Topology control and routing protocols in existing sensor network
deployments
Fault-tolerance and troubleshooting sensor networks
Antenna design and experiences with signal propagation
Experiences regarding energy management and network lifetime
Configuration and installation support
Management of large-scale sensor networks
Interconnection between IP and sensor networks

Submitted papers will be reviewed by three independent experts in the
field. Proceedings of the workshop will be published together with
those of IEEE LCN, and will be available in digital format from the
IEEE Explore Digital Library.

SUBMISSION:

FULL PAPERS: Authors are invited to submit original unpublished work,
not currently under review by another conference, workshop or journal.
Full papers should be restricted to 8 camera-ready pages (in 10 pt
font, double column, US letter size, 8.5 x 11 inches, IEEE format),
including text, figures and references. Authors should use only
standard fonts, i.e. Times Roman, Courier, Symbol, Helvetica or
equivalent.

POSTER/DEMOS: Poster papers are an opportunity to present initial
results and obtain feedback on on-going research. We also welcome
submissions for demonstrations that showcase original research,
practical implementations and realistic applications of wireless
sensor networks. Poster/demo papers must be restricted to 2 camera-
ready pages (in 10 pt font, double column, US letter size, 8.5 x 11
inches, IEEE format), including text, figures and references.

Papers must be submitted electronically via EDAS. All papers must
include title, complete contact information of all authors, abstract
and up to 5 keywords on the cover page. The corresponding author must
be clearly identified. Further information can be found at http://www.cse.unsw.edu.au/~senseapp
