SCOPE:
Wireless ad-hoc sensor networks have
become a very important research subject due to their potential
of providing diverse services to numerous applications.
The realization of sensor networks requires
intensive technical research and development efforts especially
in power aware scalable wireless ad hoc communications protocols
due to their unusual application requirements and constraints.
On the other hand, a solid theoretical
background seems necessary for sensor networks to achieve
their full potential. It is an algorithmic challenge to
achieve efficient and robust realizations of such large,
highly-dynamic, complex, non-conventional networking environments.
Features including the huge number of sensor devices involved,
the severe power, computational and memory limitations,
their dense deployment and frequent failures, pose new design,
analysis and implementation challenges.
This workshop
is intended to provide a forum for researchers and practicioners
to present their contributions related to all aspects of
sensor networks.
TOPICS:
Contributions solicited cover a variety
