I'd like to encourage you to consider attending IPSN'07 (http://ipsn.acm.org) and several co-located
events on the MIT campus (Cambridge, MA) next month. The organizers of the conference
has done a wonderful job in putting together a top notch and very exciting program
for Wednesday-Friday April 25-27. Here are a few other highlights:
·
Bob Metcalfe, inventor of Ethernet, will give a
keynote on "Ethernet is the Answer; What is the question?" Wednesday
afternoon.
·
Continuing the tradition, there will be a demo
session, together with the poster session, for students and practitioners to
showcase the latest experimental systems.
·
An open "Extreme Sensing Competition"
will be held next to the demo area. The goal is for participating teams to test
people sensing/detection algorithms on the noisy demo floor. And the winner
will get one of the latest gaming console!
·
Two workshops, one on "Wireless sensor
network architecture", and another on "Data sharing and
interoperability on world wide sensor web", will be held on Tuesday, right
before the main conference.
·
A hands-on tutorial on acoustic and seismic sensing
will be offered on Tuesday, and another on SensorMap for wide-area sensornet on
Saturday.
·
The 4th International TinyOS Technology Exchange
(TTX4) will also co-locate with IPSN on Saturday, April 28.
As a reminder, the early registration deadline is April 3.
I hope to see many of you in Cambridge!

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
The Sixth International Conference on
Information Processing in Sensor Networks (IPSN̵7;07)
April 25 - 27, 2007 – Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA
The sixth International Conference on Information
Processing in
Sensor Networks (IPSN 2007) will continue the success of
previous
five symposia to bring together researchers from
academia, industry,
and government to present and discuss recent work in
sensor network
research and applications. IPSN draws upon many
disciplines including
signal and image processing, information and coding
theory, networking
and protocols, distributed algorithms, wireless
communications,
machine learning, embedded systems design, and databases
and information
management.
To further foster the collaboration between theory and
practice,
this conference will feature two interleaving tracks:
IPSN, focusing
more on information processing algorithms,and SPOTS,
focusing on
platform tools and design methods for network embedded
sensors.
In addition, IPSN'07 will feature a competition; details
for rules
and participation will be announced in the IPSN'07
competition website
http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~whitehouse/ipsn07competition/.
Topics covered in IPSN sessions include, but are not
limited to,
the following:
- Distributed & collaborative signal processing
- Network protocols for sensor networks
- Coding, compression & information theory
- Distributed query processing
- Detection, classification, estimation, tracking
- Sensor tasking and control
- Networked sensing and control
- In-network processing and aggregation
- Distributed control & actuation
- Distributed inference & fusion
- Fault tolerance
- Network coverage, connectivity & longevity
- Data storage in sensor networks
- Location and time services
- Energy and resource management
- Programming models and languages
- Real-time scheduling
- Security
- Application & demonstration of sensor networks
Topics covered in SPOTS sessions include, but are not
limited to,
the following:
- Embedded networked sensor system platforms, platform
modeling
and analysis tools
- Architectural design, modeling and optimization tools
for sensor
nodes and networks
- Sensor node components and interfaces, middleware and
system services
- Applications of embedded networked sensing with actual
field deployments
that highlight new themes in the design and operation of
these complete
systems.
