Current developments show that in the near future the wide availability of
low cost, short range radio technology, along with 

advances in wireless networking, will enable wireless adhoc sensor networks
to become commonly deployed. In these networks, each 

node may be equipped with a variety of sensors, such as acoustic, seismic,
infrared, motion, biomedical and chemical sensors 

with higher level of information inference associated with identification,
embedded signal processing and networking of the 

data. This conference intends to be the meeting point of researchers and
practitioners share experience and ideas on innovative 

developments in any aspect of sensor networks, including Hardware of Sensor
Networks, Wireless Communication Protocols, Sensor 

Networks Software and Architectures, Wireless Information Networks, Data
Manipulation, Signal Processing, Localization and 

Object Tracking through Sensor Networks, Obstacles, Applications and Uses.

 

 

Papers describing original work are invited in any of the areas listed
below. Accepted papers, presented at the conference by 

one of the authors, will be published in the proceedings of SENSORNETS.
Acceptance will be based on quality, relevance and 

originality. There will be both oral and poster sessions.

 

 

Special sessions, dedicated to case-studies and commercial presentations, as
well as technical tutorials, dedicated to 

technical/scientific topics, are also envisaged: companies interested in
presenting their products/methodologies or researchers 

interested in presenting a demo or lecturing a tutorial are invited to
contact the conference secretariat.
