IST-AWSN'10 is held in conjunction with
MoMM 2010
The 8th International Conference on Advances in
Mobile Computing & Multimedia (MoMM2010)
Recent
developments of low-cost, low-power,
multifunctional wireless sensors have
enabled the fast growth of Wireless
Sensor Network (WSN) applications, which
include security, military, agriculture,
automation, environmental and habitat
monitoring. WSNs consist of numerous
small inexpensive battery powered
sensors; each sensor has the capability
to process and store the sensor data. A
combination of the dense deployment of
numerous smart sensors, AI techniques,
and intelligent agents can provide
continuous real-time monitoring that is
precise, accurate, reliable, and
inexpensive.
This symposium aims to bring together
researchers and practitioners working on
different aspects of wireless sensor
networks and software agent technology
in an effort to highlight the
state-of-the-art and discuss the
challenges and opportunities to explore
new research directions. We strongly
welcome submissions that include results
which advance the state of the art
relating to the theme of the symposium.
The main topics
to be addressed include (but not limited
to):
• Adaptive agents
in AWSN
• Agent security and trust in AWSNs
• Agent-based architectures for AWSNs
• Agents design issues dealing with
reliability, efficiency, and fault
tolerance
• Database management systems for
AWSNs
• Distributed management systems for
AWSNs
• Intelligent data fusion and
aggregation
• Intelligent query and data
dissemination
• Intelligent systems for AWSNs
• Learning agents in AWSN
• Mobile agents in AWSNs
• Monitoring agents in AWSNs
• Peer-to-Peer systems for AWSNs
• Power management and energy-efficient
protocols
• Routing protocols for AWSNs
• Safe transmissions of data in AWSNs
• Self-organization of AWSNs
• Smart energy-efficient routing
protocols
Publication
Only original papers will be considered
that have neither been published nor
submitted for publication elsewhere,
including web publication. All
submissions will be handled
electronically. The
length of the paper is limited to 5 pages. All papers will be reviewed by
at least two independent reviewers.
Accepted papers will be published by
ACM and the Austrian Computer Society.
Submission of a paper should be regarded
as a commitment that, should the paper
be accepted, at least one of the authors
will register and attend the conference
to present the work.
Authors of high
quality papers presented in the
symposium
will be invited to submit extended
version of their papers for publication
in international journal special issues.
