| Synopsis: |
| The Fourth Workshop on Embedded Networked Sensors (EmNets 2007) brings together wireless sensor network researchers from academic and industrial backgrounds to shed light on present and future research challenges. The workshop emphasises results from experiments or deployments that quantify the challenges in the wireless sensor systems of today as well as early results from new ideas that introduce promising approaches that will define the challenges in the wireless sensor systems of tomorrow. We especially welcome papers reporting on results that refute common assumptions, deployment experiences, novel and original approaches, and, more generally, papers that will guide future research. |

MobiEval 2007 | |
| Title: | MobiEval : System Evaluation for Mobile Platforms - Metrics, Methods, Tools and Platforms |
| Submission Deadline: | 2007-03-15 |
| Webpage: | http://mesl.ucsd.edu/MobiEval/ |
| Dates: | June, 11, 2007 |
| Location: | Puerto Rico, USA |
| Contact Email: | mobieval@cs.ucsd.edu |
| Synopsis: |
| A core aspect of any engineering systems research is evaluation: What are the metrics and methods to determine if the system is behaving as expected. In mobile systems, this task becomes more challenging due to considerations imposed by the mobile aspect of the system. This workshop aims to bring together systems researchers to explore the basic question of evaluating mobile systems. Specifically we will examine challenges and advances made in the metrics, tools, methods, and the platforms used to evaluate mobile systems effectively. Areas include : * Reproducibility and Consistency * Experimental Design * Power Considerations * Metrics * Applications * Dynamic environments * Form factor * Platforms/Test-beds * Simulation |

In the spirit of FCRC, the workshop combines two successful workshops from previous years: the workshop on the Economics of Networked Systems (NetEcon) and the Workshop on Incentive-Based Computing (IBC). |
NEW THIS MONTH! | WISEST 2007 |
| Title: | ACM Workshop on Integrating System Environments into Software Testing (co-located with ACM ISSTA 2007) |
| Submission Deadline: | 2007-04-20 |
| Webpage: | http://cs.allegheny.edu/wisest2007/ |
| Dates: | 07/9/2007 |
| Location: | London, UK |
| Contact Email: | gkapfham@allegheny.edu |
| Synopsis: |
| The Workshop on Integrating System Environments into Software Testing (WISEST 2007) establishes the first forum for the discussion of software testing and analysis techniques that explicitly incorporate the environment of a software system. Since a modern software application often interacts with a diverse execution environment in a complicated and unpredictable manner, there is a clear need for approaches that test an application, an application's execution environment, and the interaction between the software application and its environment. |

PLOS 2007 | |
| Title: | Fourth Workshop on Programming Languages and Operating Systems (PLOS 2007) |
| Submission Deadline: | 2007-06-29 |
| Webpage: | http://plosworkshop.org/2007/ |
| Dates: | October 18, 2007 |
| Location: | Skamania Lodge, Stevenson, WA, USA |
| Contact Email: | eeide@cs.utah.edu |
| Synopsis: |
| Historically, operating system development and programming language development went hand-in-hand. Today, although the systems community at large retains an iron grip on C, many people continue to explore novel approaches to OS construction based on new programming language ideas. This workshop will bring together researchers and developers from the programming language and operating system domains to discuss recent work at the intersection of these fields. It will be a platform for discussing new visions, challenges, experiences, problems, and solutions arising from the application of advanced programming and software engineering concepts to operating systems construction, and vice versa. |
