=================================================== Call-For-Papers: 13th DCOSS 2017 Ottawa, Canada, June 5 - 7, 2017 http://www.dcoss.org/ ==================================================== IMPORTANT: Paper Submission (Extended): January 20th, 2017 =================================================== ------ DCOSS 2017 is the 13th International Conference on Distributed Computing in Sensor Systems to be hosted in Ottawa, Canada in June 5-7, 2017. Due to their potential of impacting an entire host of application areas, distributed sensor systems have become a highly visible research area. The focus of DCOSS series of conferences is on distributed computing issues in large scale networked sensor systems, including, but not limited to, algorithms and applications, systems design techniques and tools, and in-network signal and information processing. DCOSS puts together a highly selective program where it primes for quality and innovation on works. Potential authors are invited to submit original unpublished manuscripts that demonstrate current research on computational aspects of distributed sensor systems. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: Social networks and applications Sensors for smart grid systems, green networks and sustainability Computation and programming models Energy models, minimization, awareness Distributed collaborative information processing Detection and tracking Theoretical performance analysis: complexity, correctness, scalability Abstractions for modular design Fault tolerance and security Task allocation, reprogramming and reconfiguration Dynamic resource management Scalable, heterogeneous architectures (node and system-level) Middleware interfaces, communication and processing primitives Design, simulation and optimization tools for deployment and operation Design automation and application synthesis techniques Closed-loop control for sensing and actuation Case studies: lessons from real world deployments Network coding and compression Paper Submission and Publication: High-quality original papers are solicited. Papers must be unpublished and must not be submitted for publication elsewhere. All papers will be reviewed by Technical Program Committee members and other experts active in the field to ensure high quality and relevance to the conference. Please submit your paper through EDAS link ( https://edas.info/N23046 ).
