			      REALWSN'05
		    http://www.sics.se/realwsn05/
				   
			   June 20-21, 2005
			  Stockholm, Sweden
	     Submission deadline: 9 April 2005, 1600 EST


The purpose of the Workshop on Real-World Wireless Sensor Networks is
to bring together researchers and practitioners working in the area of
sensor networks, with focus on real-world experiments or deployments
of wireless sensor networks.
			  
When working with real-world experiments or deployments, many new
issues arise: the network environment may be composed of a variety of
different technologies, leading to very heterogeneous network
structures; software development for large scale networks poses new
types of problems; prototype networks may differ significantly from
the deployed system; actual sensor network deployments may need a
complex combination of autonomous and manual configuration.

Authors are invited to submit papers (5 pages, double column) or
poster abstracts (2 pages) for presentation at the workshop. Papers
will be selected based on originality, technical merit and relevance.

All topics pertaining to real-world wireless sensor networks are of
interest, including but not limited to:

 * Experiences with real-world deployments
 * Self-organization and self-management
 * Debugging, testing, and management
 * Deployment and configuration
 * Applications in medicine, industry, science, environmental
   monitoring, etc.
 * Security and trust
 * Scalability in practice
 * Development and prototyping platforms 
 * Operating systems and programmability 
 * Sensor network programming paradigms and languages
 * Middleware for heterogeneous networks
 * Real-time and dependability issues
 * Hardware support for real-world sensor networks
 * Robustness at all levels: communication, software, hardware
 * Energy efficient protocols
 * Methods for measuring and assessing energy consumption
