<p class=MsoNormal>*************************************************************<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The 6th ACM Conference on Embedded Networked Sensor Systems
(SenSys) is<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>a highly selective, single-track forum for the presentation
of research<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>results on systems issues in the area of embedded, networked
sensors.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Distributed systems based on networked sensors and actuators
with<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>embedded computation capabilities enable an instrumentation
of the<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>physical world at an unprecedented scale and density, thus
enabling a<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>new generation of monitoring and control applications. This
conference<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>provides an ideal venue to address the research challenges facing
the<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>design, deployment, use, and fundamental limits of these
systems. Sensor<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>networks require contributions from many fields, from
wireless<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>communication and networking, embedded systems and hardware,
distributed<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>systems, data management, and applications, so we welcome<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>cross-disciplinary work.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>We particularly encourage papers that extend the scope of
the conference<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>beyond wireless mote-class sensor networks and we seek
contributions<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>from a broad range of sensing-related fields, such as
actuator networks,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>RFID applications, mobile ad-hoc networks, camera networks,
and others.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>We seek technical papers describing original, previously
unpublished<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>research results. Topics of interest include, but are not
limited to,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>the following:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>- Rich sensor systems leveraging RFID, mobile devices (e.g.,
cell<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> phones), cameras, robotics, etc.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>- Failure resilience and fault isolation<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>- Analysis of real-world systems and fundamental limits<o:p></o:p></p>

and emulation<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> infrastructure<o:p></o:p></p>
