Wireless sensor networks are potentially the most important technology of this century. The advancement of Internet technology and abundance sensor deployment has enabled to gather real-time information from anywhere. Since the need of the information varies from user to user, querying and publishing relevant information from heterogeneous data sources across various spatio-temporal scales is a challenging task. This is one of the hindrances for macro scale sensing. Sensor Web is a concept that supports macroscale sensing with web-enabled heterogeneous sensors. The agent paradigm may play a key role to scale the localised wireless sensor network to the sensor web. However, there are some challenges that need to be addressed from both the wireless sensor networks and sensor web perspective to make it a reality. Researchers and practitioners have identified applications like environmental monitoring, health monitoring and urban scale pollution control as key applications for sensor web, we have yet to see the promise of interoperable applications to really make intelligent sensor web a reality.
IASNW 2009 is the international workshop on advances in theory, systems, and applications of agent techniques in sensor networks to make sensor web a reality. It is a full day workshop run in conjunction with the 2009 International Conference on Principles of Practice in Multi-Agent Systems (PRIMA 2009) in Nagoya, Japan. The aim of this workshop is to encourage activities in this field, and to bring together world-wide researchers from academia, industry and government agencies with an interest to apply agent technology in wireless sensor networks and sensor web.
Topics of the workshop
The workshop is interdisciplinary in nature, and will address but is not limited to the following major topics:
Use of intelligent agents in sensor webs
Agent-based architecture for wireless sensor networks
Interoperability issues using an agent paradigm
Agent paradigm for managing sensor data in a sensor web
Agent based context and situation awareness systems
Agent-based middleware for sensor networks
Agent based resource management and energy efficient design
Agent framework for intelligent decision support system
The Call for papers is available in pdf format for distribution
Paper submission
Authors are invited to submit papers that are original and unpublished in areas of agent technologies to enable sensor web. The paper should be written in English and format should comply with PRIMA 2009 submission guidelines. The paper should be submitted electronically through EasyChair system (http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=iasnw2009 <http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=iasnw2009> ). Each paper will be reviewed by at least two reviewers and feedback will be provided for all the submitted papers.
