The International Conference on Embedded Wireless Systems and Networks,
EWSN, is a highly selective single-track international conference
focusing on the latest research results on embedded systems and wireless
networking, which are key enablers for visionary scenarios in fields
such as the Internet of Things and Cyber-Physical Systems.

This year’s feature topic is “unconventional communication”.

Building on the past 18 years of success, the 19th edition will be held
in Linz, Austria. The conference will take place in hybrid format,

Proceedings will be indexed in the ACM Digital Library, SCOPUS, and
other prominent digital libraries.
