SCOPE AND TOPICS

----------------------------------------------

ALGOSENSORS is an international symposium dedicated to the algorithmic aspects of wireless networks. Originally focused on sensor networks, it now covers algorithmic issues arising in wireless networks of all types of computational entities, static or mobile, including sensor networks, sensor-actuator networks, autonomous robots. The focus is on the design and analysis of algorithms, models of computation, and experimental analysis.

This year ALGOSENSORS has three tracks:
Distributed & Mobile
Experiments & Applications
Wireless & Geometry

Each paper must be submitted to a single track that fits the topic of the paper best. While the tracks Distributed & Mobile and Wireless & Geometry deal primarily with algorithmic and theoretical results, the Experiments & Applications track covers papers where the evaluation is of more practical nature (tests, simulations, experiments, position papers).
Topics include, but are not limited to:
Approximation Algorithms
Communication Protocols
Complexity and Computability
Computational Models
Cryptography, Security and Trust
Cyber Physical Systems
Data Aggregation and Fusion
Deployment
Energy Management
Error Correcting Codes
Experimental Analysis
Fault Tolerance and Dependability
Game Theoretic Aspects
Infrastructure Discovery
Localization
Medium Access Control
Mobility & Dynamics
Obstacle Avoidance
Pattern Formation
Performance Evaluation
Power Saving Schemes
Randomized Algorithms
Resource Efficiency
RFID Algorithms
Routing and Data Propagation
Self-stabilization, Self-* Properties
Swarm Computing
Systems and Testbeds
Time Synchronization
Topology Control
Tracking
Virtual Infrastructures

PROCEEDINGS
----------------------------------------------

As in previous years, the proceedings of ALGOSENSORS will be published by Springer-Verlag as a volume of the LNCS series. Selected papers will be invited to a special issue of the Journal Theoretical Computer Science.


----------------------------------------------
SUBMISSION
----------------------------------------------

Full papers are to be submitted electronically using the EasyChair server at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=algosensors2015. Original research papers must contain results that have not previously appeared and have not been concurrently submitted to a journal or conference with published proceedings. Each paper should select one of the three tracks (Distributed & Mobile, Experiments & Applications, or Wireless & Geometry) for submission. Authors need to ensure that for each accepted paper at least one author will register and attend the symposium. Submissions are limited to twelve (12) single-column pages in the LNCS format (see LNCS author guidelines at http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0). This includes figures, but excludes references and an optional appendix (to be read at the program committee's discretion).


By submitting a paper the authors acknowledge that in case of acceptance at least one of the authors must register at ALGO 2015 or ALGOSENSORS2015, attend the conference, and present the paper.
