ISSNIP 2009 - The Fifth International Conference on Intelligent Sensors, Sensor Networks and Information Processing ISSNIP 2009

The Fifth International Conference on Intelligent Sensors, Sensor Networks and Information Processing ISSNIP 2009 held under the umbrella of the ARC Research Network on ISSNIP is an annual forum for sensor network research.

The ISSNIP PhD/ECR Forum, taking place within the ISSNIP 2009 conference, is an opportunity for PhD students and early career researchers (ECR - five or fewer years post PhD) to present preliminary results and works in progress to a conference audience of leading international researchers. This is a valuable opportunity to seek feedback on outstanding research questions, generate exposure for current research programs and establish new collaborative research links.

The forum will feature a poster session, a demonstration session and a panel session:

Poster session: The poster session enables participants to display their work to an international conference audience.

Demos: Provides an opportunity for participants to present working demonstrations of their current research.

Panel session: A panel session will be held as part of the forum, looking into the issues, challenges and benefits of collaborative research and how to develop and sustain such links.

Posters and demos addressing the following areas (but not limited to) are invited:

Intelligent Sensors:
Micro, nanosensors, MEMS and other novel senor technologies.
Other sensor networks embedded technologies.
Sensor Networks:
Sensor Network Security and Intrusion Detection.
Network Scheduling and Optimization.
