Call for Participation

ASCI Springschool on Wireless Sensor Networks

30 March - 4 April 2008, Hotel Zonne, Noordwijk

The design of embedded systems is a major challenge for both academia and
industry. Complexity

of embedded applications as well as performance, cost, power consumption,
and time-to-market constraints

are ever growing. The Dutch graduate school ASCI organizes a springschool
that addresses

the issues related to embedded systems design. The central topic of the 2008
Springschool is Wireless

Sensor Networks, a rapidly evolving research area holding the promise of
taking embedded systems

to another level by employing them at large scale (i.e. thousands of small,
networked nodes collaborating

on a common application). The springschool will take a broad perspective and
cover issues like

resource limitations (energy!), in-network data processing,
reliability/dependability, MEMS technology,

localization, time synchronization, and low-power wireless communications,
to name a few.

 

The program of the springschool will consist of lectures by national and
international recognized

experts as well as a half-day, hands-on tutorial working with sensor node
technology developed at

ETH Zurich (BTnodes). 

 

The first day of the springschool (Monday) will be reserved for the GNARP

workshop. This workshop acts as a low-threshold forum where PhD students can
rehearse their presentations

and receive feedback on their research by other PhD students and regular
ASCI staff.

Further announcements on GNARP workshop (the Graduat Network of Applied
Research in Parallel Systems and ASCI)
will soon follow!

ASCI PhD students and staff members

We aim at limiting the overlap with the winterschools of 2004 and 2006 as
much as possible. This

implies that ASCI PhD students who participated in those winterschools may
participate in the 2008

springschool as well, but in the case of too many registrations, debuting
PhD students will be given

precedence. ASCI staff members are always very welcome to participate in the
springschool and share

their expertise with the PhD students enrolled.

 

Note: In contrast to regular ASCI courses, the springschool is not free of
charge. The fee for ASCI

PhD students amounts to ¤200 and covers all accommodation and food expenses
for the entire week.

Non-ASCI participants

 

The springschool is also open to non-ASCI PhD students from Dutch
universities as well as to other

interested researchers (both national and international). The participation
fee for non-ASCI PhD

students is¤500. The fee for other non-ASCI attendees is¤1000. These fees
include accommodation

and food expenses for the entire week.
