— SUBMISSION DEADLINES EXTENDED —
Complementing the topics of ACM SenSys 2014, this workshop brings together international researchers to explore the challenges, issues, and opportunities in the research, design, and engineering of energy-harvesting and energy-neutral sensing systems. These are a technological cornerstone for future applications in smart energy, future transportation, environmental monitoring, and smart cities.
High-quality original technical articles are solicited, describing advances in energy-aware sensing systems, including those which describe practical deployments and implementation experiences. Attendees will benefit from ENSSys’ co-location with SenSys 2014, widely regarded as one of the most prestigious conferences on sensor network research.
WORKSHOP SCOPE
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
– Power management algorithms for energy-neutrality
– Power management circuits and systems
– Approaches to enable interoperability between energy-neutral networks
– OS-support for energy harvesting sensing systems
– Network-wide distributed energy management
– Online measurement of energy intake and consumption
– Online prediction of energy intake and consumption
– Reliable operation in energy harvesting sensor systems
– Modelling, simulation and tools for effective design of energy-neutral sensing systems
– Architectures and standards
– Internet of (energy-neutral) things
– Innovative applications
– Experiences from real-world deployments
– Networking support for energy-neutral and energy-harvesting sensing systems
– Event-powered sensing systems and networks
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
We solicit three types of paper submission: technical papers (6 pages), demo papers (2 pages, presented at the workshop as interactive demonstrations), and poster papers (2 pages, presented at the workshop as a poster). Submissions should be previously unpublished, and not under review by another conference or journal. Papers should be submitted for consideration via the workshop website, prior to the submission deadline, and must adhere to the provided formatting guidelines. Papers will undergo double-blind review; authors are asked to remove names and other identifying statements from submissions. Submissions will be reviewed for novelty, relevance, and quality. All accepted papers will be available on the ACM Digital Library.
