First
International Workshop on
Algorithmic Aspects of Wireless Sensor Networks
July 16, 2004, Turku, Finland
To be held in conjunction with ICALP 2004
http://www.algosensors.org/algosensors04/
SCOPE
Wireless ad-hoc sensor networks have become
a very important research subject due to their potential
of providing diverse services to numerous applications.
The realization of sensor networks requires intensive technical
research and development efforts especially in power aware
scalable wireless ad hoc communications protocols due to
their unusual application requirements and constraints.
On the other hand, a solid theoretical background
seems necessary for sensor networks to achieve their full
potential. It is an algorithmic challenge to achieve efficient
and robust realizations of such large, highly-dynamic, complex,
non-conventional networking environments. Features including
the huge number of sensor devices involved, the severe power,
computational and memory limitations, their dense deployment
and frequent failures, pose new design, analysis and implementation
challenges.
This workshop is intended to provide a forum
for researchers and practicioners to present their contributions
related to all aspects of sensor networks.
