The 2nd International Workshop on
Adaptation in Wireless Sensor Networks (AWSN-09)

http://tweb.ing.unipi.it/awsn09

In Conjunction with
The 7th IEEE/IFIP International Conference on
Embedded and Ubiquitous Computing (EUC 2009)

Vancouver, Canada, August 29-31, 2009
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
CALL FOR PAPERS

Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are networked embedded systems that rely
on wireless communication. WSNs are supposed to run long-lived
applications. During operation, applications are likely to experience
unpredictable environment conditions that require to dynamically
change their behavior. With current reprogramming technology, such an
adaptation is still an open issue, as it can be achieved either at the
expense of significant energy consumption or through software
complexity. The challenge is to achieve WSN systems that not only embed
intelligence into environments, but also have embedded intelligence for
reprogramming themselves after their deployment.

The workshop aims at stimulating researchers and practitioners in
embedded and ubiquitous computing, autonomic computing, ad-hoc
networking and all other relevant areas to present their ideas and work
in progress for advancing the technologies that enable adaptive WSN
applications.

* Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Re-configurable, adaptive applications
* Context-awareness
* Self-healing, self-protection, self-configuration, self-optimization
* Agents and distributed computing
* Embedded Virtual machines
* Viral programming
* Opportunistic computing
* Intelligent power management and coverage
* Adaptive wireless communication and networks
* Security and fault-tolerance

PAPER SUBMISSION

The program committee encourage original, high-quality submissions from
researchers and practitioners from academia and industry. All papers
will be reviewed according to their originality, significance,
correctness, presentation and relevance.

Accepted papers will be published by the IEEE Computer Society. Selected
papers of the workshop will be considered for a special issue in
International Journal of Autonomous and Adaptive Communications Systems
(IJAACS, www.inderscience.com/ijaacs)

Please follow the submission instructions that will be made available
at the workshop's website (http://tweb.ing.unipi.it/awsn09)
