The workshop will be held in conjunction with ARCS (Architecture of Computing Systems) on Wednesday, 20 February, 2013 at Hotel DAP, Vítězné nám. 684/4, 160 00 Prague, Czech Republic.
Description
Ultra-low power sensor networks have gained importance these last few years due to a vast set of applications e.g. in automotive systems, in smart buildings and health-care monitoring. Sensor networks often need to operate autonomously without wired connection for long periods of time. To allow long maintenance cycles, two main strategies are common: Firstly, they should be able to operate on a long-lived battery or other means of energy sources, e.g. energy harvesting strategies. Secondly, ultra-low power approaches are used to consume as little energy as possible. The workshop is intended to give a good overview of current work in this area and problems and solutions in specific industry use cases.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Design methodologies for ultra-low power embedded systems
- Power consumption estimation techniques
- Energy harvesting: technologies and models
- Simulation frameworks for wireless sensor networks
- Power manager
- Wake-up radio technologies
- Low-power radio front ends
- Energy-efficient communication protocols
- Cross layer techniques
- Applications of ultra-low power sensor networks: building automation, smart homes, smart cities, etc.
Industry submissions showing current state of the art are especially welcome.
Paper length should be between 4 and 6 pages. Papers must be submitted using the upload system at https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wups2013
For ARCS 2013 participants the workshop is included in the conference fee; for participation in the workshop alone, there will be a reduced fee.
Important dates
- Paper submission deadline: 10.12.2012
- Acceptance notification: 11.01.2013
- Camera-ready deadline: 18.01.2013
