[Boon-Chong Seet]

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2nd International Workshop on Sensor Networks and Ambient Intelligence 
(SeNAmI)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In conjunction with PDCAT'09
http://www.cs.hiroshima-u.ac.jp/pdcat09/
December 8-11, 2009, Hiroshima, Japan

Call for Posters and Demos
In addition to full-length papers, SeNAmI 2009 welcomes submissions in the 
form of posters and demos that feature late-breaking results, innovative 
work in progress, preliminary research findings, or any interesting early 
ideas and visions, in areas of relevance to sensor-based ambient 
intelligence systems. Demonstrations are intended to showcase the practical 
implementation of novel new technologies, applications, techniques, and 
research prototypes or testbeds among others.

We are particularly interested to see emerging young researchers in this 
field, applying their creativity and skills to innovate new technologies 
that could make a real difference by solving some of the most challenging 
issues facing our world today. We welcome both academic and industrial 
submissions.

Abstract submission
Poster and Demo abstracts should be in single-column format and not exceed 
one page, including figures and references. The abstract should be prepared 
using the template provided on the website, and submitted as a Word document 
to: senami at aut.ac.nz

The information fields for the contact author and type of presentation 
(poster or demo) on second page of the abstract template should be completed 
as appropriate. For demo authors, please further specify any space 
requirements and/or any other equipment-specific requirements.

The abstracts of accepted posters and demos would be distributed to all 
conference participants through the USB memory version of the proceedings, 
but they would not be published by IEEE Computer Society. However, they 
would be published online with citable DOI (Digital Object Identifiers) and 
permanently archived by the Frontiers Research Foundation (a Swiss-based 
non-profit academic publisher).

Special registration fee
A special registration fee of 35,000 JPY has been planned for poster and 
demo authors. If an author has already registered for a paper in the main 
conference (PDCAT) or any of its workshops, a reimbursement of 10,000 JPY 
for each registered poster/demo paper can be arranged at the conference 
site. At least one of the authors must register and present their work in 
the workshop. All registrations shall go through the main conference (PDCAT) 
registration website.

Best Poster and Demo award
A selection panel will convene to select the recipients for the Best Poster 
and Best Demo awards, courtesy of the Global COE (Centers of Excellence) 
Program for Founding Ambient Information Society Infrastructure of Graduate 
School of Information Science and Technology, Osaka University.
