This is a final reminder that the abstract and the paper submission deadlines
for the ?8th International Workshop on Data Management for Sensor Networks?
(DMSN'11) are due on Monday, May 9, 2011.

8th International Workshop on Data Management for Sensor Networks (DMSN'11)
in conjunction with VLDB 2011
August 29, 2011
The Westin, Seattle, WA, USA

WORKSHOP AIM
The scope of the workshop includes all important aspects of sensor data
management, including data acquisition, processing, and storage in remote
wireless networks; the handling of uncertain sensor data; and the management of
heterogeneous and sometimes sensitive sensor data in databases. The
resource-constrained, lossy, noisy, distributed, and remote nature of wireless
sensor networks implies that traditional database techniques often cannot be
applied without significant retooling. Challenges associated with acquiring,
processing, and archiving large-scale, heterogeneous sets of live sensor data
also call for novel data management techniques. The inherently incomplete and
noisy nature of sensor data further calls for techniques for data cleaning,
inference, and approximation. Finally, in many applications, the collecting of
sensor data raises important privacy and security concerns that require new
protection and anonymization techniques.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
We solicit papers that address important aspects of sensor data management.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- database languages for sensor tasking
- distributed sensor data storage and indexing
- data replication and consistency in noisy and lossy sensor networks
- energy-efficient data acquisition and dissemination
- in-network query processing
- networking support for data processing
- model-based sensor data processing
- query optimization and deployment planning in sensor networks
- managing loss, noise, and ambiguity in sensor data streams and sensor
databases
- integration of live and stored sensor data
- challenges and techniques for new types of sensor data: e.g., RFID, images and
videos, data from scientific and medical instruments
- integration of sensor data of different modalities and from different sources
- personal, ubiquitous applications of sensor-based infrastructures
- techniques for secure sensor data collection and processing
- privacy protection techniques for sensor data
- collecting and publishing of large sensor data sets
- data stream management
- complex event detection and processing
- systems issues as they relate to the main topics of the workshop
- social and people-centric sensor networks using smartphones
- adhoc and mobile sensor networks
- experiences with real-world large-scale sensor applications
- semantic sensor web
Submitted papers must not have been published or currently be under
consideration for publication at another venue.
We are particularly interested in position papers, vision papers, system
designs, and papers that address new challenges for sensor data management.
Furthermore, this year we are also planning to organize a special poster & demo
session at DMSN.
IMPORTANT DATES
Abstract submission: Mon, May 09, 2011
Paper submission: Mon, May 09, 2011
Notification: Mon, Jul 11, 2011
Camera-ready copy due: Mon, Aug 01, 2011
Workshop: Mon, Aug 29, 2011
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
All submissions will be handled electronically using the Conference Management
System made available to us by Microsoft Research. Detailed submission
instructions are posted on the DMSN'11 web site:
http://www.softnet.tuc.gr/dmsn11/
Full papers and poster/demo proposals in PDF format must be submitted by May
9th, 2011. Papers should be in the ACM Proceedings camera-ready format and must
be at most 6 pages long for regular papers, and at most 2 pages long for
poster/demo proposals.
Questions about the submission process should be directed to the program
co-chairs at: sumann at microsoft.com.
WORKSHOP FORMAT
Our goal is to bridge communities by bringing together interested researchers
from different communities to identify future research challenges and
opportunities. As such, the workshop will be organized in a way to foster
interaction and exchange of ideas among the participants. We expect to have
longer than usual question-and-answer periods after paper presentations, one
keynote speech, and an interactive poster & demo session.
