* SCOPE: Building on the success of previous years, IEEE ?SECON ?2012
provides a unique forum to exchange innovative research ideas, recent
results, and share experiences among researchers and practitioners in the
field of sensor, mesh, and ad hoc networks and systems. ?IEEE SECON grew
out of the IEEE INFOCOM conference in 2004, in order to create an event
that focused on the important and exciting topics of Sensor, Mesh and Ad
Hoc Communications Networks. In addition to the traditional topics
published in SECON, this year the conference especially brings papers in
emerging applications and services, involving sensor, mesh and ad-hoc
communications, such as green technologies, smart grids, urban sensing
systems, the Internet of Things, social networking, etc.

* KEYNOTE TALKS: ?1)Dr. Yoonchae Cheong (Senior Vice President at the
Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology, Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd.).
Talk titled "Digital Space Expansion through Smartphone" and 2) Dr. Kang G.
Shin (Professor at the University of Michigan. Talk titled "Is Dynamic
Spectrum Access a Blessing or Curse?". Speaker bio and talk abstracts can
be found at http://www.ieee-secon.org/keynote.html




      * TECHNICAL ?PROGRAM: ?67 ?papers ?have ?been ?accepted ?for
      presentation ? and ?for ? publication ? in ?the ? conference
      proceedings. The complete list of accepted papers can be found
      on-line at the conference web page:

      * PANEL: ?The panel, moderated by Prof. Sunghyun Choi (Seoul National
      University, Korea),??will provide discussion on ?M2M/D2D toward
      Beyond 4G Wireless? and will be held on June 20th, 2012.

      * Workshops: IEEE SECON 2012 features two workshops to be held on
      June 18, 2012:
      1. The IEEE Workshop on Enabling Technologies for Smartphone and
      Internet of Things (ETSIoT) 2012 aims to provide a forum for academic
      researchers and industrial experts possessing the vision of IoT with
      smartphones.

      2. The IEEE Workshop on Vehicular Communications, Sensing, and
      Computing (VCSC) 2012 aims to cover all related topics of
      intra/inter-vehicular communications, sensing on the road, and
      computing to support safer and more efficient driving.

      * POSTERS/DEMOS: IEEE SECON 2012 includes poster and demostration
      sessions providing a forum to present and discuss works in progress,
      industry demonstrations of new applications and techniques, practical
      implementations, industrial and commercial developments, research
      testbeds and demonstrations, recent research/implementation results,
      upcoming research challenges, future directions, and novel approaches
      in the fields of sensor, mesh and ad hoc communications and networks.
      This year IEEE SECON is also running a best poster and best demo
      award competition. Awards will be based on the novelty and the
      potentials of the poster/demo to drive further research.

      * STUDENT ?TRAVEL ?GRANTS: The ?IEEE ?SECON 2012 ?organizing
