CALL FOR PAPERS
*2^nd MONAMI SmaRT Workshop*
Workshop on Smart objects Resource managemenT
*26 September 2012*
Hamburg University of Technology, Germany
In the context of Future Networks, the term "smart objects" is used to
refer to everyday objects of all kinds that are enhanced with
computational intelligence and the capability to communicate with each
other and with online services. They are essential elements of
cyber-physical systems enabling multifaceted applications in fields such
as logistics, smart buildings, intelligent transport, and smart city
applications.
The MONAMI SmaRT Workshop is complementary to the main conference. The
workshop will look into the opportunities that smart objects create for
infrastructure and infrastructure-less networks and how new services can
be deployed and managed. Smart objects incorporate monitoring and
control functions and need to communicate with each other and with
gateways. In many cases, communication is based on wireless sensor
networks integrated with an object, such as parts of a building,
logistic goods, vehicles or environmental sensors and actuators. In
other cases, communication is based on a hybrid approach where part of
the network is infrastructure-based and the rest is self-organized.
Managing such smart objects requires algorithms and approaches based, in
part, on general concepts discussed in MONAMI. However, the workshop
will go one step further and consider, in particular:
- Energy-efficient, self-organized access and routing schemes for smart
object systems
- Testbeds and experimental evaluation of services based on smart objects
- Service and application management platforms for a variety of
applications, e.g. smart cities
- Autonomic network monitoring and management for smart object networks
- Future Internet Architectures with smart objects
Accepted papers of exceptional merit will be considered for inclusion in
the ACM/Springer Mobile Networks and Applications (MONET) Special Issue
on Smart Object Applications and Management.
*Paper Submission*
We encourage submissions of high-quality technical papers reporting
original research that has not been previously published, and is not
currently submitted for consideration elsewhere. Full Papers should not
exceed *10 pages* in the Springer Lecture Notes of ICST (LNICST) format.
Full paper submission details are available at
http://mon-ami.org/cfp_smart.shtml
All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed by at least three MONAMI TPC
members, including a Workshop Chair, to ensure high quality and
relevance to the topics of the workshop. All accepted papers will be
published in the Springer LNICST series and then be included in major
article indexing services.
*Important Dates*
Paper Submission Deadline: 15 July 2012 (firm deadline; no extensions
will be given)
