DCOSS '06 CALL FOR POSTERS
--------------------------------------

****  Note that the deadline for Poster submission has been extended to ****
****                                 March 17, 2006                                             ****

The 2006 International Conference on Distributed Computing in Sensor Systems
(DCOSS '06) will take place in San Francisco during June 18 - June 20, 2006.
DCOSS '06 is intended to cover high-level aspects of distributed computing
in sensor systems such as high-level abstractions, computational models,
systematic design methodologies, algorithms, analysis and applications.

DCOSS '06 solicits posters that report on recent original results
or ongoing research in the area of wireless sensor networks.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:

       - Computation and programming models
       - Energy models, minimization, awareness
       - Distributed algorithms for collaborative information processing
       - Theoretical performance analysis: complexity, correctness,
              scalability, fault-tolerance
       - Abstractions for modular design
       - Languages, operating systems
       - Task allocation, reprogramming and reconfiguration
       - Dynamic resource management
       - Scalable, heterogeneous architectures (node and system-level)
       - Middleware interfaces, communication and processing primitives
       - Design, simulation and optimization tools for deployment
              and operation
       - Design automation and application synthesis techniques
       - Case studies: lessons from real world deployments

All posters will be reviewed and judged based on their originality,
technical contribution and, particularly, their potential to
generate interesting exchanges of ideas.

Poster proposals must be submitted as a single pdf file not exceeding
6 single-spaced, single-column pages with a 12-point font. Proposals MUST
be received by March 17, 2006. Notification of acceptance or rejection will
be made by April 1, 2006.

The poster abstract will be included in the Springer Verlag/LNCS DCOSS '06
Proceedings. In addition, a separate hardcopy poster proceedings volume will
be produced and distributed during the conference.

+=============================================+
|            Call for (Short) Papers
|          Satellite Workshop: MSWSN
|   Mobility and Scalability in Wireless Sensor Networks

|       http://www.upb.de/cs/mswsn-06.html
+=============================================+
|        Satellite Workshop of DCOSS 2006
|         International Conference on
|    Distributed Computing in Sensor Systems
|             http://www.dcoss.org/
+=============================================+

 In the recent years wireless sensor networks have advanced from a pure academic
 research to industry serving the market's demand for numerous application
 scenarios. This workshop gives a podium for new concepts and algorithms.
 Interesting examples are the use of sensor networks in mobile scenarios, the
 use of hybrid sensor networks in commercial solutions (e.g. sensor networks
 combined with ad hoc networks), and the use of smart or directed antennae,
 multiple frequencies, or other transmission media.

 This workshop presents recent developments in the context of Wireless Sensor
 Networks with special (yet not exclusive) focus on algorithmic aspects
 concerning

 + Mobility
 + Scalability
 + Lifetime
 + Heterogeneity

 in wireless sensor networks.

 The workshops consists of invited talks of renown researchers (t.b.a.) in the
 field of wireless sensor networks and short papers (two pages) containing
 concept papers and announcements.

 This workshop will be held as a one-day satellite workshop of the 2006
 International Conference on Distributed Computing in Sensor Systems
 (DCOSS '06) and will take place in the Sir Francis Drake Hotel, Union Square,
 San Francisco during June 18 - 20, 2006.

 Accepted short papers for the DCOSS satellite workshops are included in a
 separate proceedings in full text.
