Overview and
Scope
The first international workshop
on Sensor Networks and Applications (SNA'08) will be held in Hainan
Island, China, December 13 ~ 15, 2008 (in conjunction with FGCN'08). The
workshop interest focuses on sensor networks and their applications, and
includes the following three research scopes: Wireless Sensor Network
(WSN), Underwater Sensor Network (UWSN), and Semantic Sensor Network
(SSN). This workshop will support an opportunity for industry and
academic professionals to discuss the latest issues and progress. The
workshop will publish high quality papers which are closely related to the
various theories and practical applications in SNA. Furthermore, we hope
that this workshop will provide us with a good chance to share creative
ideas regarding SNA with other researchers and engineers from institutions
around the world.

communications ? Network architecture design for
UW-ASN ? Medium access control and Routing and
forwarding ? Security and robustness and Power
management scheme ? Localization and
synchronization ? Practical hardware and software
platform including data storage and management ?
UW-ASN modeling and simulations ? New techniques for
aquatic applications ? New applications for
underwater networks ? Other Related Issues on
Underwater Sensor Network
(3) Semantic Sensor Network (SSN) ? Semantic-based query
