- Workshop: Nov 04, 2024
Complementing the topics of ACM SenSys 2024, this workshop will bring researchers together to explore the challenges, issues, and opportunities in the research, design, and engineering of energy-harvesting, energy-neutral and intermittent sensing systems for the IoT. These are enabling technologies for future sustainable applications in smart energy, transportation, environmental monitoring, and smart cities. Innovative solutions in hardware and software for energy scavenging, adaptive algorithms, and power management policies are needed to enable either uninterrupted or intermittent operation, promoting environmental sustainability alongside widespread use of sensing technology.
High-quality technical articles are solicited, describing advances in sensing systems powered by energy harvesting, as well as those which describe practical deployments and implementation experiences. ENSsys also offers a platform for innovative future directions by soliciting position papers.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Power management concepts, algorithms and circuits for energy-harvesting sensing systems
- Hardware and software concepts, algorithms and circuits for intermittent computing
- Resource management and operating system support for energy-harvesting sensing systems
- Network-wide distributed energy management (e.g. routing, adaptive duty cycling, etc.)
- Artificial intelligence for battery-free systems
- Communication in intermittent-power domain
- Online measurement of energy intake and consumption
- Predicting energy intake and consumption
- Ensuring reliable operation in energy-harvesting sensor systems
- Modelling, simulation and tools for effective design of future energy harvesting sensing systems
- Architectures and standards for energy-neutral, power-neutral or intermittent sensing systems
- Internet of (battery-less) Things
- Hardware/Software codesign for sustainable and intermittent TinyML
- Experience with real-world deployments and innovative applications
- Sustainability, circularity, and life-cycle assessment of sensor systems
We solicit three types of paper submission:
- Technical Papers: up to 6 pages (including everything except references), reporting on novel research, to be presented at the workshop as an oral presentation;
- Position Papers up to 3 pages (including everything), reporting on new research directions and/or a controversial debate of past research, to be presented at the workshop as a short pitch with interactive discussion;
- Demo/Poster Papers up to 2 pages (including everything), to be presented at the workshop as an interactive demonstration or poster respectively.
Submissions should be previously unpublished, and not currently under review by another conference or journal. Papers should be submitted for consideration via the workshop website, prior to the submission deadline, and must adhere to the provided formatting guidelines. Papers will undergo double-blind review, authors are asked to remove their names and other identifying statements from submissions by:
- using the 'anonymous' option for the class, and
- using 'anonsuppress' section where appropriate.
Submissions will be reviewed for novelty, relevance and quality. Accepted papers will be available on the ACM Digital Library on the first day of the conference.
All papers should be submitted through HotCRP
