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 (IPSN'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.
