Scope
-----

In the last few years, MEMS technologies have pushed back the limits
further in terms of miniaturization so that it is now possible to design
complex and multifunctional MEMS in restricted spaces. Distributed MEMS
specifically considered in this Workshop integrate a high number of
elementary components (actuators, sensors). Such MEMS involve various
applications such as micromanipulation, the active control of structures
or locomotion and they raise specific issues either in the design or in
the coordination of all the components: automatic control, software,
communication networks, computing power. New solutions for MEMS design,
modelisation, distributed control, networking and information management
in MEMS have to be considered.

The objective of dMEMS is to bring together researchers and engineers
from the fields of microsystems, computer science, networking and
control in order to present, to discuss and to facilitate the sharing of
knowledge at the highest scientific and technical levels.
Inter-disciplinary experiences that connect these different fields will
be greatly appreciated. Topics of particular interest include, but are
not limited to:

-Design, implementation and technologies
* Microactuator technology
* Microactuators array
* Sensor technology
* Sensors array

* Robust control
* Optimal control
* Real-time control

-Network of distributed sensors and actuators
* Embedded hardware, hardware/software co-design, Power-aware and
energy-efficient network design, scalable architecture design
* Real-time networking, quality of service, Qos provisioning
* NoC and Soc design, routing and switching in embedded networks
* Wireless sensor networks, cross-layer design, distributed coordination
* Multimedia and data Management, data aggregation, data fusion,
distributed source coding
* Multi-agents, distributed and peer-to-peer computing, swarm
intelligence, fault tolerance, security, privacy, trust
* Distributed applications

-Modelling, simulation, verification, test and validation

Venue
-----
Besançon is the capital and main city of the Franche-Comté region in
Eastern France. Located close to the border with Switzerland, it is the
capital of the Doubs department. The city has one of the most beautiful
historical centres in any major town in France. The old town, "la
Boucle", is enclosed in a broad horse-shoe loop of the river Doubs,
which is blocked off at the neck by Vauban's imposing Citadelle. The
historical centre features a remarkable ensemble of classic stone
buildings, some dating back to the Middle Ages. The citadel, the city
walls and Fort Griffon were added to the list of UNESCO World Heritage
Sites in 2008, as part of the "Fortifications of Vauban" group.
