Call For Papers

The intersection of water scarcity and rapid urbanization, exacerbated by climate change and aging infrastructure, poses significant challenges to global water supply. However, the proliferation of sensor technology, IoT, and advancements in machine learning and edge computing provide us with powerful tools to monitor, assess, and manage our water resources more effectively.

This workshop invites research papers that delve into the innovative use of sensor networks and IoT in water distribution management. We are particularly interested in papers that explore the deployment of sensor devices, energy assessment, radio coverage, energy consumption, and novel techniques for water monitoring. We encourage contributions that investigate novel algorithms in edge and serverless computing, and the cloud-edge continuum. We also welcome experimental work that evaluates contemporary serverless and edge approaches and their applications. The workshop's focus extends to machine learning techniques for processing data at the edge or in a serverless manner.

We are especially interested in papers that address leakage detection, utility clustering, energy assessment, graph analysis, and machine learning. Papers applying network sensing in assessing and monitoring water quality, quantity, availability, and management to ensure water leakage detection via serverless and edge processing are particularly encouraged.

We welcome papers that explore innovative remote sensing and modeling techniques for water resource management. This could include detecting, quantifying, and monitoring water supply systems, identifying potential threats, and other themes related to water resources and environmental management at various spatial scales.

We look forward to receiving papers that span a wide range of innovative technologies, policies, and emerging systems analysis approaches, applications, and practices for improved monitoring, modeling, digitalization, and management of water resources and infrastructure.

This workshop will be held exclusively in-person.
