Networked consumer devices are equipped for personal and environmental
sensing, collection, and delivery of sensed information. The workshop
addresses a range of research issues involving networking, sensing, data collection, aggregation and processing, knowledge discovery in sensing data, security/privacy, scalability, contextual/situational adaptation and dynamics.
Papers are max 5 pages in length and conform to the IEEE conference
format. Paper submissions are via EDAS:
