Scope:
------

Networked Embedded Systems for 'Every Application’ (NESEA) aims to gather the best expertise in the field and to promote the use of networked embedded systems in diverse applications. Target specializations of networked embedded systems include: Wireless Sensor Networks, Cyber-Physical Systems, Ubiquitous Computing, Pervasive Computing and Mobile Computing. This year we particularly welcome papers that tackle the integration of heterogeneous embedded systems such as sensor nodes and mobile phones in the diverse areas of energy monitoring, conservation and physiological monitoring. Topics of Interest include, but are not limited to:


The proceedings of the IEEE NESEA conference series are published by the IEEE Computer Society and indexed in IEEE Xplore and DBLP.
