[Naercio Magaia]

Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this WSensing 2021 Last Call for Papers (CFPs) Sep 19, 2021 (hard deadline).

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1st Workshop on Security, Privacy and Reliability on Wireless Sensing Networks
www.inf.unioeste.br/eventos/wsensing21

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, LADC 2021 will be an online-only event!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

* Contribution submissions
Current wireless sensing networks are widely used in a range of applications, such as agriculture, healthcare, and smart cities. The evolution of new physical and virtual wireless networks brings new challenges with the emergence of Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) and Cyber Human Systems (CHS), especially in the context of the industry 4.0 leverage, including environmental, power and motion monitoring. Such solutions generate massive amounts of data through the sensing provided by the various systems, which need to be transmitted over the networks, many of which support real-time decisions under dense environments. In this context, these systems need to be reliable and provide security and privacy in their services.
The WSensing workshop aims to bring together leading researchers and practitioners from academia and industry, to advance the state-of-the-art and to identify open challenges on Security, Privacy and Reliability in the range of the Wireless Sensing Networks.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Wireless Networks:
-Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN)
-Internet of Things (IoT)
-Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANET)
-Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)
-Mobile Networks
-Opportunistic Networks
-Mobile Edge Computing
-5G e B5G Networks and Services

Technicals/Approaches/Methods:  
-Security/Privacy Policies
