*Call for Papers*
The ACM/IEEE International Conference on Information Processing in Sensor
Networks (IPSN) is the leading annual forum on research at the intersection
of networked embedded sensing, control, and systems design. Now in its 22nd
year, IPSN has been at the forefront of the development of today’s "smart"
systems. IPSN brings together researchers from academia, industry, and
government to present and discuss recent advances in both theoretical and
experimental research on all aspects of networked systems of sensors and
actuators. Its scope includes signal and image processing, information and
coding theory, databases and information management, distributed
algorithms, networks and protocols, wireless communications, collaborative
objects, the Internet of Things (IoT), machine learning, mobile and social
sensing, and embedded systems design. Of special interest are contributions
at the confluence of multiple of these areas.

IPSN 2023 is part of the CPS-IoT Week, the premier venue for research and
development of cyber-physical systems. IPSN is co-sponsored by both the ACM
and IEEE, and it continues to emphasize research that bridges multiple
research communities. IPSN is interested in all aspects of sensor networks,
ranging from traditional topics such as networking to more recent
developments such as embedded machine learning, RF sensing and computer
vision.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* Systems, Architectures, and Tools
   * Sensor data storage, retrieval, processing
   * Network and system architectures and protocols
   * IoT gateway platform architecture and services
   * Programming models, languages, and systems
   * Programming models for IoT ensembles
   * Modeling, simulation, and measurement tools
   * Operating systems and runtime environments
   * Discovery, coordination, and use of IoT services
   * IoT reliability, adaptability, and dependability
   * Technical assessment of emerging IoT standards
* Algorithms, Data, and Theory
   * Localization, synchronization, RFID, and RF sensing
   * VLC and visible light based sensing
   * Data related issues, such as methods, tools, and analysis
   * Coding, compression, and information theory
   * Theoretical foundations and fundamental bounds
* Applications
   * Applications in health, wellness & sustainability
   * Applications in smart cities and urban health
   * Experiences, challenges, comparisons of platforms
   * Sensor-enabled drone / autonomous vehicle platforms and algorithms
   * Outdoor, wide-area, or crowdsourced sensing systems
   * Wearable systems and data processing algorithms
   * Sensor data processing for augmented and virtual reality applications
* Security and Privacy
   * Security and privacy
   * Fairness, equity, and transparency issues in IoT and CPS
* Machine Learning
   * Machine learning, deep, federated and multimodal learning on sensor
data
   * New hardware and system design to enable machine learning on sensor
data
   * Computer vision/RF sensing/visible light based sensing for
resource-constrained and mobile platforms
   * Novel embedded machine learning algorithms

In addition to the established Best Paper Award, IPSN 2023 will provide a
Best Research Artifact Award to the authors who have contributed the
research artifact that is judged to be the most novel, easy to use, well
documented, and useful to advance research. Research artifacts, such as
code, data sets, and tools, are highly encouraged to be submitted or made
available simultaneously with paper submission.

IPSN 2023 accepts double-blind paper submissions which have not been
previously published. Posted technical reports (ArXiv or similar) do not
count as prior publication and do not violate the double-blind requirement.
Submitted manuscripts are up to 12 single-spaced 8.5" x 11" pages with 9-pt
font size in two-column format, inclusive of figures, tables, and
references, following the ACM primary article template (
https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template). LaTeX submissions
should use the acmart.cls template (sigconf option), with the default 9-pt
font. Papers are to be submitted at https://ipsn2023.hotcrp.com/. During
the review process, the reviewers may anonymously communicate with the
authors for clarifying questions.

Selected outstanding papers (up to 10) may be fast-tracked as a special
section of ACM Transactions on Sensor Networks.

IPSN collaborates closely with the IoTDI conference (
https://conferences.computer.org/iotDI/2023/), given the proximity in
research themes (both related to IoT) and the co-location in CPS-IoT Week.
We provide submission guidelines (
https://ipsn.acm.org/joint_statement_IoTDI.html) to aid prospective authors
with the conference venue selection. In the meantime, we would like to make
explicit that double submission remains prohibited under ACM's policy
of Prior Publication and Simultaneous Submissions (
https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/simultaneous-submissions). To
foster a closer joint community, following the practice in recent years, we
would invite quality submissions to switch between IoTDI and IPSN, in case
we find fit and the authors agree.

Best,
