<p class=MsoNormal>Call for Papers: Workshop on Applications, Systems, and
Algorithms for<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Image Sensing<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Deadline: August 25th<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>November 4, 2008, Raleigh, North Carolina, USA<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Held in conjunction with ACM SenSys 2008<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The improving performance of small form factor and low power
image<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>sensing technologies is constantly expanding the sensing
capabilities of<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>embedded, wireless, and mobile platforms, thereby enabling
new<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>applications. Effective design and deployment of such
applications<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>involves addressing many research issues ranging from
efficient platform<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>design; in-situ event extraction; storage, processing and
communication<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>of large amounts of image data; and privacy issues inherent
to image<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>sensing.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>This workshop hopes to provide a forum to discuss the latest
research,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>future directions, challenges, and novel ideas for realizing
the<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>potential of image sensor networks. Researchers coming from
the multiple<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>related fields of imaging technology, image interpretation,
embedded<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>application design, wireless and low power networking, and
image data<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>management will have an opportunity to interact and
synergize.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
