Call for Papers for the 3rd International Workshop on Wireless Sensor, Actuator and Robot Networks (WiSARN 2011)http://www.site.uottawa.ca/~xuli/WiSARN2011/To be held in conjunction with theThe 30th IEEE International Conference on Computer Communications (IEEE INFOCOM 2011)April 10-15, 2011, Shanghai, China.Wireless sensor and actor networks (WSAN) are the confluence point where the traditional fields of wireless sensor networks (WSN), robot networks and control theory meet. In WSAN, nodes collaborate to accomplish distributed sensing and actuation tasks. Leveraged by the control and mobility of actors, the networking process and applications embrace a whole new set of possibilities. Actors may deploy, repair and relocate sensors to improve coverage, build routes and fix network partition to ensure data communication, change network topology to shape routing patterns and balance energy consumption, and respond to reported events in a timely and effective manner. The benefits are limited only by imagination. As an emerging field, WSAN are in need of new networking techniques, by which they can fully exploit their particularities and potentials. WiSARN aims to bring together state-of-the-art contributions on the design, specification and implementation of architectures, algorithms and protocols for current and future applications of WSAN. Original, unpublished contributions are solicited in ALL aspects of WSAN, WSN, robot networks, and robotics and automation. Possible topics include, but are not limited to: * Autonomous sensor networks* Emergent behavior in WSAN* Modeling and simulation of WSAN * WSAN architectural and operational models* Autonomic and self-organizing coordination and communication * Sensor-actor (robot) and actor-actor coordination * Energy-efficient and real-time communication protocols* Bandwidth-efficient and delay-tolerant communication protocols * Distributed control and management in WSAN* Neighborhood discovery and mobility management* Communication protocols for swarms of mobile actors (robots)* Map exploration and pattern formation of mobile robots* Actor (robot) task assignment* Biologically inspired communication * Ecological systems * Architectures and topology control * Localization in WSAN* Probabilistic integration in WSAN* Quality of service, security and robustness issues* Applications and prototypes * Hybrid networks and wireless Internet* Data management, gathering, aggregation and query processingPapers must not exceed 6 single-spaced and two-column pages using at least 10 point size type on 8.5 x 11 inches pages, and must be formated in strict accordance with the IEEE author guidelines. Submissions are being considered with the understanding that they describe original research, neither published nor under review elsewhere. Accepted papers will be published in the IEEE Digital Library after the conference and included in INFOCOM 2012 proceedings. Selected best papers will be invited to a special issue of Ad Hoc & Sensor Wireless Networks: an international journal (SCIE).
