CALL FOR PAPERS
PWSN 2013
5th International Workshop on Performance Control in Wireless Sensor Networks
http://www.netrl.cs.ucy.ac.cy/pwsn2013/  

May 23 2012, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA

In conjunction with the 9th IEEE International Conference on Distributed 
Computing in Sensor Systems (DCOSS '13)
=========================================================================

Most existing wireless sensor network (WSN) installations have in common that 
they are not considered time-critical. No immediate action has to beundertaken 
as a response to the received data. However, many emerging WSN applications 
such as plant automation and control, smart cities or health care applications 
require immediate and guaranteed actions. In such environments, data has to be 
transported reliably and in time through the sensor network. In some scenarios, 
data even has to travel through the sensor network and the Internet to reach 
the destination. In this situation the overall system spanning the Internet and 
sensor networks must providetogether the required performance characteristics. 
Due to the lack of appropriate models, components and protocols, it is 
currently very difficult to construct and operate a WSN with performance 
guarantees. Thus, the commercial success of wireless sensor networks in many 
application areas is unsure unless this particular problem is understood and 
solved.

The PWSN workshop aims at bringing together researchers and 
practitionersdesigning and deploying sensor networks that have to meet specific 
performance targets.

Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:
--------------------------------------------------

    Communication protocols with deterministic performance
    Network resilience, fault tolerance, network survivability
    Sensor data quality, integrity, and availability
    Performance-aware middleware
    Real-time operating systems for sensor networks
    Actuation and control
    Programming abstractions for deterministic sensor networks
    Impact of security features on network performance
    Experience with real-world deployments and applications
    Performance management of deployed sensor networks
    Timely data storage, retrieval, and processing
    Performance modelling and performance evaluation
    Configuration and installation support
    Performance debugging and performance optimization

Important dates:
----------------
