The 1st International Workshop on Wireless Sensing Technology

(WST 2017)

IEEE ICPADS 2017

Overview

In recent years, Wireless Sensing Technology, with their primary functions such as localization and location-based services, human activity sensing, health monitoring, context-aware system and passive sensing, has found widespread applications in many areas, including both academia and industry. The adoption of wireless solutions offers various great advantages such as privacy-reserving, low-power, low-cost and ubiquitous sensing. The goal of the 2017 Wireless Sensing Technology Workshop is to bring together internationally leading academic and industrial researchers in an effort to identify and discuss the major technical challenges and recent results aimed at addressing all concerns on wireless sensing technology.

Submission Guideline

This symposium takes place in conjunction with The 23nd IEEE International Conference on Parallel and Distributed Systems. Papers must be unpublished and must not be submitted for publication elsewhere. All papers will be reviewed by Program Committee members and other experts active in the field to ensure high quality and relevance to the conference. Submissions should include author information, abstract, 5-10 keywords, and be in PDF format. Each submission must not exceed 6 pages in the IEEE 8.5" x 11" two-column format with 10 point font, including tables, figures and references. Template formatting is located at IEEE website. The final version will be limited to 4 pages in IEEE proceeding format for conference papers. Up to 2 extra pages may be purchased. Each submission should be regarded as an undertaking that, should the submission be accepted, at least one of the authors must register the paper and attend the conference to present the work in order for the accepted paper to be included into the IEEE digital library. Submission site is at EasyChair.
