[Tccc] CFP: Wireless Sensor Network for Infrastructural Monitoring (ITSC'09, Deadline: June 30)

(Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of the CFP)

Call for Papers for

*******************************************************************************
Special Session on Intelligent Structural Health and Safety Monitoring for
the

12th International IEEE Conference on Intelligent Transportation Systems
********************************************************************************

October 4-7, 2009 in St. Louis, Missouri, U.S.A.

Deadline Extended: June 30, 2009 (No further extension will be given)

Using advanced sensor and wireless communication technology, the health and
safety of much of today's critical infrastructure (e.g., bridges, roads,
tunnels, and buildings) can be continuously, autonomously, and remotely
monitored to streamline maintenance efforts and provide early warning of
pending hazards (e.g., structural fatigue, icing conditions, floods, and
fire). These cost-effective systems allow for long-term continuous
monitoring, instead of occasional human inspection, thus providing immediate
detection of potential problems before they become major catastrophes. This
workshop will provide an overview of ongoing research in this emerging area,
including, but not limited to, the development of intelligent sensors,
instrumentation and devices for infrastructure monitoring, wireless sensor
networks, energy harvesting systems, structure reliability analysis, and
modeling, simulation, and implementation of infrastructure monitoring
systems.
