HotEMNETS 2010 - 6th Workshop on Hot Topics in Embedded Networked Sensors

The Sixth Workshop on Hot Topics in Embedded Networked Sensors (HotEmNets 2010) brings together wireless sensor network researchers from academic and industrial backgrounds to present groundbreaking results that will shed light on present and future research challenges. The workshop emphasizes results from experiments or deployments that quantify the challenges in the wireless sensor systems of today as well as early results from new ideas that introduce promising approaches that will define the challenges in the wireless sensor systems of tomorrow. We especially welcome papers reporting on results that refute common assumptions, deployment experiences, novel and original approaches, and, more generally, papers that will help inform and guide research.

HotEmNets 2010 will be invitations only. Authors of accepted papers, TPC and SC members as well as other distinguished members of the community will be invited to enable a focused and productive discussion.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
  • Validation/refutation of prior results
  • Applications beyond data collection
  • Application experiences: measurements, lessons learned
  • Future applications: requirements and challenges
  • Integration of sensor networks and IP networks
  • Hardware platforms, tradeoffs, and trends
  • Data and network storage
  • Delay-tolerant networking
  • Management, debugging, and troubleshooting
  • Network and software reliability
  • Network and system architectures
  • Software bug detection and tools
  • Energy sources, scavenging, and low-power operation
  • Human-Computer interfaces for sensor nets

Papers should be submitted in Adobe PDF format.
No longer than five pages in US letter or A4 paper size
