Call for Papers

The Third International Conference on Intelligent Sensors, Sensor Networks and Information Processing (ISSNIP) 2007 will be held in Melbourne during the period December 3-6, 2007. This event is running under the umbrella of ARC Research Network on Sensor Networks (www.sensornetworks.net.au). The conference will focus on both theory and applications of intelligent sensors and smart systems. All accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings and IEEE Xplore. The conference is now calling for papers on the following topics (but not limited to):

Sensor Networks: Topics of interest in this area include modeling of specific sensor networks and sensor arrays, methods for ad hoc deployment, algorithms for sensor localization and tracking of mobile users, energy issues and in-situ calibration methods. Also, current sensor network architectures such as Dynamic sensor networks, Hierarchical clustering architectures, Attribute-based named nets, routing protocols, media access control and distributed and collaborative signal processing. Last but not least, intelligent sensor technologies and applications.

Sensor Fusion and Tracking: Areas of general interest include but are not limited to Multi-sensor fusion, Target detection and tracking, Target recognition, Data association, Sensor registration, Situation assessment, Image or sensor data fusion, Distributed inference and fusion, Sensor tasking and control, Sensor scheduling and optimization.

Intelligent Information Processing: Machine Intelligence methods such as Adaptive Learning and Neural Networks, Support Vector Machines, Genetic algorithms, Hybrid intelligent systems, Multi-agent systems such as reinforcement learning, Intelligent control with possible applications to sensor technology. Other topics of interest include hardware implementations, new coding and compression techniques, new online monitoring and data collection methods.

Symposia: Based on previous success, the conference committee is planning a number of symposiums which will focus on particular areas of sensor networks. Those interested in organizing a symposium are invited to visit the conference website to obtain the guidelines. Successful proposals will be displayed on the website as they become available. The following symposia are currently planned for ISSNIP 2007:

• Symposium on Middleware for Sensor Networks (MiSS'07).
• Symposium on Autonomous Configurability and Control in Dynamic Wireless Networks.
• Symposium on Machine Learning and Applications.
• Symposium on Environmental Sensor Networks.
• Symposium on Sensor Fusion, Intelligent Sensors and Applications.
• Symposium on Bio-signal Processing and Networked Sensors in Healthcare.
• Symposium on Sensor Networks.
• Symposium on Information Processing in Sensor Networks.
• Workshop on Optimization in Sensor Networks.
• Symposium on Sensor Network Security.
• Symposium on Computational Intelligence for Sensor Networks.
• The First International Symposium on RFID Technology.

Paper submission: Prospective authors are invited to submit full papers of up to 6 pages in length, using electronic submission via the conference web site. Papers will be fully refereed and accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings.
