Dear Colleagues,

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are commonly used in pervasive and ubiquitous applications. WSNs are developed using both static (motes) and mobile (e.g. smart phone) sensor nodes for various applications such as smart homes, telehealth, surveillance, metering, and industry automation. In this special issue, we invite researchers and practitioners to submit their latest results and developments for the following topics:

• Applications using mobile phones and static sensors
• Algorithms and techniques for energy efficient communication
• Robustness and fault tolerance in WSNs
• Intelligent techniques and datamining for WSNs
• Query processing for data streams in WSNs
• Security and privacy issues in WSNs
• Telehealth services for elderly and chronic patients using WSNs
• Body area sensor networks

Submission

Sensors is a highly rated journal with a 1.870 impact factor in 2008. Sensors is indexed and abstracted very quickly by Chemical Abstracts, Analytical Abstracts, Science Citation Index Expanded, Chemistry Citation Index, Scopus and Google Scholar.

All papers should be submitted to sensors@mdpi.org with copy to the guest editors. To be published continuously until the deadline and papers will be listed together at the special websites.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a paper. Article Processing Charges (APC) are 1050 CHF per paper and additional English correction fees (250 CHF) will be added in certain cases (1300 CHF per paper for those papers that require extensive additional formatting and/or English corrections) for paper submitted before 31 December 2009. Starting 1 January 2010, Article Processing Charges are of 1600 CHF per accepted article for Sensors.
