First European TinyOS Technology Exchange (ETTX)
|
|
By pal, Section Events Thu Dec 11th, 2008 at 05:47:44 PM PST
|
The TinyOS Technology Exchange (TTX) is a yearly venue where developers, users, and companies involved in low-power wireless sensing get together to talk about recent developments and future directions of the TinyOS platform and the related technologies.
The TTX has been traditionally held in the USA. To foster a broader European TinyOS community, we are launching a companion event In Europe with the same format.
The First European TinyOS Technology Exchange (ETTX 2009) will take place in Cork, Ireland, on February 10, 2009, collocated with EWSN 2009, the largest sensor networks conference in Europe.

INSS 2009 is the sixth annual conference in the series, and features a highly selective technical program. We invite outstanding research papers from the field of sensor technology, wireless networking, or application of networked sensor systems. The conference especially encourages submissions that investigate research issues shared between all three areas. Submission of regular, short, and industry papers are invited. All submissions will be peer-reviewed and evaluated on the basis of originality, significance of contribution, technical correctness, and presentation. All accepted papers will be published from the Society of Instrument and Control Engineers (SICE), and also from IEEE Explore.
Full Paper Due: January 9th, 2009
Notification of Acceptance: April 1st, 2009
Conference Dates: June 17 - 19, 2009

CFP: BodyNets 2009
|
|
By hackmann, Section Events Thu Oct 16th, 2008 at 07:13:01 AM PST

Networks of sensing, computing, and communication devices are increasingly being deployed as wearable, and even implantable, systems to form Body Area Networks (BodyNets). BodyNets allow for unidirectional (monitoring) and even bidirectional (effecting) interactions with subjects. BodyNets are now appearing in diverse applications, including physiological monitoring for diagnosing, treating, tracking, and studying diseases and disorders; biokinetic monitoring for improving physical medicine and rehabilitation; human-computer interactions; and education and entertainment through interactive games. This conference will explore and explain the scope and challenges of designing, building, and deploying BodyNets. This will also include sessions devoted to presenting applications that are creating new business opportunities as well as compelling research challenges. In this regard, the BodyNets conference, now in its third year, aims to establish a forum for convening research professionals from diverse fields, including computer science and electrical engineering, biomedical engineering, medicine, and other disciplines in both academia and industry to address the technical, social, and application opportunities being driven by BodyNets.
Abstract Due: December 1, 2008 by 11:59pm PST
Full Paper Due: December 8, 2008 by 11:59pm PST
Notification of Acceptance: January 26, 2009

PermaSense Matterhorn Deployment Online
|
|
By beutel, Section News Thu Oct 2nd, 2008 at 02:01:31 AM PST
|
|
PermaSense observes physical parameters related to permafrost in steep high-alpine terrain over a period of multiple years. Live sensor network data is transmitted from the Matterhorn, Switzerland field site at 3450 m.
Currently, there are 15 nodes sampling at 2 min intervals and relaying the data back home in real time. Estimated lifetime is 3 years and the sensor network is built on TinyNodes, Dozer and TinyOS-1.x (still). Check out the live data here.
There is some background information in some recent slides available here.
