Wireless sensor networks offer a wealth of capabilities for interfacing the physical world with applications in environmental, industrial, and medical domains. A typical wireless sensor network is expected to work without human intervention for a long time period. Hence, energy efficiency is of paramount importance in wireless sensor networks in order to achieve maximum network lifetime. Due to the energy constraints of sensor devices, communication protocols and hardware architectures for wireless sensor networks necessitate an energy-aware design to ensure the longevity of the network. While most wireless sensor networks use battery-operated computing and sensing devices, new technologies such as energy harvesting have gained much attention in the research community recently. In addition, each layer of the communication protocol stack can employ various techniques to conserve energy with consideration of the hardware's capabilities to minimize energy expenditure. WEWSN intends to bring together the researchers working on various topics in wireless sensor networks with relation to energy. It will be held as a one-day workshop in conjunction with DCOSS'09, co-located with several related workshops on special topics in wireless networking, thus providing an ideal venue for researchers to share their ideas and discuss their latest research work.
