On

"Collaborative Wireless Sensor Networks: Architectures, Algorithms and

Applications"

The Information Fusion Journal is planning a special issue on Collaborative

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). WSNs are collections of tiny devices

capable of sensing, computation and wireless communication operating in

domain-specific environments to monitor and control events of interest in a

distributed manner and collectively react to critical situations. WSN

applications span various domains such as environmental and building

monitoring and surveillance, pollution monitoring, agriculture, health

care, home-automation, energy management, earthquake and eruption

monitoring. Notably, through collaboration WSNs can organize efficiently,

prolong system lifetime, handle dynamics, detect and correct errors, all

with the final goal of eventually executing reliably single or multiple

user applications. This special issue specifically focuses on exploring

recent advances in architectures, algorithms, and applications for

collaborative WSNs to make WSN-based applications more reliable,

intelligent, effective and easy-to-use in academic- and industry-related

scenarios.

Manuscripts (which should be original and not previously published either

in full or in part or presented even in a more or less similar form at any

other forum) covering methods, architectures, algorithms and applications

for collaborative wireless sensor networks are invited. Absolutely no cut

and pastes from prior publications (of text and/or figures or tables or

other illustrations) will be permitted. All such reproduced material should

be excluded by generous use of citations to the relevant prior publications

wherever necessary within the text of the Journal submission. The

manuscript will be judged solely on the basis of new contributions

excluding the contributions made in earlier publications. Contributions

should be described in sufficient detail to be reproducible on the basis of

the material presented in the paper and the references cited therein.

Topics appropriate for this special issue include, but are not necessarily

limited to:

- WSN architectures, protocols, and algorithms;

- Localization in WSNs, including algorithms and techniques for sensor

localization and tracking;

- Data management in WSNs, including distributed storage, distributed

processing, query, manipulation, data fusion, and data mining;

- Credibility management in WSNs, including credibility model,

certification and evaluation;

- Cooperative signal and information processing in WSNs;

- Collaboration between WSNs and other systems;

- Collaborative Body Sensor Networks;

- WSN applications.

Manuscripts should be submitted electronically online at

http://ees.elsevier.com/inffus

The corresponding author will have to create a user profile if one has not

been established before at Elsevier.

The Guest Editor(s) for this proposed special issue are:
