[Tccc] CFP: Workshop on Energy in Wireless Sensor Networks (WEWSN 2009)-Extended Submission Deadline on April 6, 2009

Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP.
===================================================
Workshop on
Energy in Wireless Sensor Networks (WEWSN 2009)
http://cone.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/wewsn09/
In conjuction with DCOSS 2009
Marina Del Rey, California, 10 June 2009
===================================================

Wireless sensor networks offer a wealth of capabilities for interfacing
the physical world with applications in environmental, industrial, and
medical domains. A typical wireless sensor network is expected to work
without human intervention for a long time period. Hence, energy
efficiency is of paramount importance in wireless sensor networks in
order to achieve maximum network lifetime. Due to the energy constraints
of sensor devices, communication protocols and hardware architectures
for wireless sensor networks necessitate an energy-aware design to
ensure the longevity of the network. While most wireless sensor networks
use battery-operated computing and sensing devices, new technologies
such as energy harvesting have gained much attention in the research
community recently. In addition, each layer of the communication
protocol stack can employ various techniques to conserve energy with
consideration of the hardware's capabilities to minimize energy
expenditure.
WEWSN intends to bring together the researchers working on various
topics in wireless sensor networks with relation to energy. It will be
held as a one-day workshop in conjunction with DCOSS'09, co-located with
several related workshops on special topics in wireless networking, thus
providing an ideal venue for researchers to share their ideas and
discuss their latest research work.

Scope
Authors are invited to submit original, previously unpublished
manuscripts that demonstrate current research related to energy in
wireless sensor networks. Topics of interest include, but are not
limited to the following featured topics:

* Architectures and protocols for energy management
* Energy-aware data gathering and routing protocols
* Wake-up scheduling algorithms
* Duty cycle management
* Data aggregation, conservation, optimization
* Energy models for analysis and simulation
* Resource management
* Energy scavenging, energy harvesting
* Coverage and connectivity algorithms
* Cross-layer optimization
* Energy and bandwidth efficient distributed signal processing
* Medium access control and topology control
* Error control protocols and fault-tolerance
* Traffic management and congestion control
* Energy-efficient system services (e.g. localization, time
synchronization)
* WSN hardware and operating systems


Paper Submission Instructions
We only accept original papers that have neither been published nor
submitted for publication elsewhere. Papers must be submitted in PDF
format. Submitted papers must conform to the IEEE-Transactions format
and should not exceed 8 pages. All submissions will be handled
electronically via EasyChair. The use of LaTeX typesetting is highly
recommended. It is your responsibility to make sure that the manuscript
is free of printing problem. At least one of the authors of each
accepted paper must attend the workshop and present the paper.

Important Dates
Paper submission: April 6, 2009
Notification of acceptance: April 27, 2009
Camera-ready version: May 3, 2009

CALL-FOR-PAPERS
-------------------------------------------------------------
15th Eunice International Workshop
"The Internet of the Future"
September 7 - 9, 2009, Barcelona, Catalunya, Spain
http://nets.upf.edu/eunice09
-------------------------------------------------------------

Ten years ago, the 5th edition of the Eunice workshop took place in
Barcelona with the motto "Broadband for all". This year, with the
broadband promise already fulfilled in the city, the international
workshop comes back to Barcelona in its 15th edition focused on "The
Internet of the future".

The Internet is shaping the twenty-first century information society. It
has deeply transformed the way we learn, work and interact. All kinds of
institutions, from universities to businesses, have been shaken by the
wave of digital innovation. Leisure and social networks also have their
place in the virtual world, and the younger generations cannot imagine a
time when they could not be in permanent contact with friends around the
globe, interchanging messages and multimedia content. The challenge of
classifying, ranking and interpreting the massive amounts of information
that are being generated is breathtaking. Furthermore, the Internet is
moving beyond the computer to reach the mobile phones, smart gadgets and
sensor networks. The pervasiveness of the Internet had fundamentally
changed existing business models, and the business models themselves are
driving the evolution of the Internet. In this scenario of relentless
change, our aim is to foresee and design the networks and applications
of the future.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Future Internet Architectures and Mobility:
- Evolution of current IP-based architectures
- Disruptive proposals for Internet upcoming architectures
- Next Generation Networks Security and Management
- IP Mobility issues

Web-based applications and contents:
- New applications and services for social communities
- Search and mining advances in the future Internet
- Network vs. contents: neutrality issues
- Location-based services

Multimedia Services:
- Massive multimedia and video content deployment
- Image and video processing
- Networked video gaming
- Skinning user interfaces

Traffic Engineering for Internet:
- Performance evaluation

Pervasive Wireless Networks and Protocols
- QoS and radio resource management.
- MIMO and smart antennas.
- Novel MAC and routing protocols for cognitive, adaptive and
reconfigurable networks.
- Cross-Layer design.

Fixed and Optical Networks:
- Optical end-to-end transport
- New Switching and routing paradigms
- Self-configuring optical networks
- Next Generation Access networks

Future Internet Regulatory and business issues:

Venue: The international workshop will take place in the burgeoning 22@
innovation district in Barcelona. Its centric location, combined with
the high density of universities, research institutes and
technology-oriented companies, makes this the ideal spot for the event.
The neighborhood has nice promenades and beaches to relax after
technical sessions and it is also one of the main clubbing areas in the
city.

Authors are encouraged to submit full papers describing original
research or extended abstracts presenting early results. Full papers
will be considered for oral presentation while extended abstracts will
