| Description |
The recent advances in sensors,sensor technologies and their networking techniques have been powered by high speed and low cost
electronic circuits, novel signal processing methods and innovative advances in manufacturing technologies. The revolution taking place in these areas have significant
impact on a broad range of applications, relating to health care, environment, energy systems, automative engineering, food safety,
national security and manufacturing. Present R & D activities are focusing on more sensitive and powerful Sensor Systems with increased performance and functionality.
In addition, the advances in the niaturization, low power circuit designs, low power wireless communication systems and other networking techniques have enabled a new technological vision of advanced wireless sensor networks and other integrated networking possible. Research, academia and industry from various disciplines are converging and cooperating to develop and deploy the various types of wireless sensor networks and optical fiber based networking for various applications ranging from forest fire detection, chemical (toxic), early warning systems to power plant monitoring and defence applications.
For wireless sensor networks, real time applications, quality of service, reliability, integrity, robustness and fault tolerance have become key issues.
Considering the developments taking place in the vital areas of sensors and related networking, an International Conference on Sensors and related Networks “SENNET ’07” is being organized at Vellore Institute of Technology, Vellore during December 12-14, 2007. The conference is being jointly organized
by VIT, Vellore and Indian Nuclear Society, (Kalpakkam Chapter) in association with University of Applied Sciences, Karlsruhe,
Germany.
The Conference intends to bring together the Academia, Industry and R & D Organizations working in these fields, around the world, to share their innovative ideas, research
experience and establish collaboration for further developmental activities in these areas.
SENNET’07 will have key note addresses by Eminent personalities in the field, which will be embedded with plenary sessions and plenary
talks where distinguished speakers will discuss issues of interest. In addition, there will be renowned invited speakers who will address issues of specific interest on sensors
and related networking issues to the conferees. The conference is aiming at large number of contributory paper presentation sessions.
Pre Conference tutorials on ‘Sensor Technology’, and ‘Wireless Sensor Networks’ will be conducted,” on December 10,11, 2007 at VIT, Vellore.
