Call for Papers for ISWC On-Body Sensing Workshop
=20
This half-day workshop is focused on new ideas in on-body sensing.
Participants will be selected based on a two-page position paper. Topics
for the workshop include (but are not limited to):
=20
* new sensor technologies: =20
What new sensors are being created that may be useful for =20
wearables? Sensor-on-chip MEMS technology is bringing us tiny sensors
for acceleration, pressure, humidity and chemicals; how can these be
used on the body?
* novel uses of existing technology: =20
A lot has been done with sensors over the years; what =20
unconventional uses can existing sensors be put to?
* new applications for on-body sensors: =20
The most common applications for on-body sensors is context =20
recognition. What else can we use them for? Possibilites include health
and fitness monitoring, games, biometrics, art....
* novel algorithms and architectures: =20
What algorithms work best for dealing with wearable sensors? Many =20
sensors are high-resolution, high-sampling rate; how can we deal
effectively with such a flood of data?
* data collection strategies: =20
What hardware and software can help in collection of sensor data? =20
Where should sensors be placed on the body?
* dealing with data: =20
Long-term data collection from sensors often yields huge =20
quantities of data; how best to deal with it through visualization or
other methods?
=20
The emphasis of this workshop is on new, possibly crazy ideas rather
than old and established practice. To participate, submit a two-page
position paper in PDF format to 
.
