First International Workshop on Autonomous and Automated Sensor Networks, AASN Summary and topics Thanks to technological advances, wired and wireless sensor networks are attracting an increasing attention that promotes their large-scale deployments in many applications, such as environmental monitoring, military surveillance, and scientific exploration. Continuous improvements are motivating works in addressing specific sensor network issues spanning hardware, network protocols, architecture, operating systems, and applications. Furthermore, emergent needs to fulfill a variety of heterogeneous requirements are highlighting the importance of multidisciplinary networks that control their processing and manage their resources by means of self-organizing techniques. These techniques particularly require sharing the decision-making process over hundreds of low-power, short lifetimes sensors. The achievement of this goal is still facing an urgent and challenging question on how to provide these spatially distributed sensors with reasonable autonomy that help them in performing the right action, at the right time for the sake of fulfilling current requirements while increasing the lifetime of the entire sensor network and guaranteeing reliable and enduring pathway communications. Automating the sensor network activities is also an urgent and challenging issue especially that commonly sensing devices are operating unattended in remote and hostile areas where manual maintenance is nearly impossible. Since predefined and late decisions do not help much in improving the efficiency of networked sensing devices, automation and autonomy are very important mechanisms in addressing upcoming developments that target multi-services, collaborating, or competing sensor networks. To reach these goals, the first International Workshop on Automated and Autonomous Sensor Networks is seeking novel ideas in the following topics that include, but not limited to: Heterogeneous sensor networks Multi-service sensor networks Sensor network control Automated sensing activities Competing sensors or sensor networks Collaborating sensors and sensor networks Semantic-based management of sensor networks Resource management in sensor networks Context awareness in sensor networks Self-organization and self-adaptation in sensor networks New architectures and protocols for sensor networks New sensor network applications Sensor network maintenance Intelligent sensors and sensor networks Data management in sensor networks Data and resource sharing in sensor networks Chairs Nafaâ Jabeur (point of contact) Computer Science Department, Dhofar University Postal Code: 211 Salalah, Sultanate of Oman Email: nafaa_jabeur@du.edu.om Youssef Iraqi Computer Science Department, Dhofar University Postal Code: 211 Salalah, Sultanate of Oman Email: y_iraqi@du.edu.om Technical program committee Phil Graniero, University of Windsor, Canada Jiannong Cao, Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong Gianluca Moro, University of Bologna, Italy Stefano Avallone, University of Naples, Italy Nabil Sahli, Telematica Institute, Netherlands Athanasios Gkelias, Imperial College, UK Khalil El-Khatib, University of Ontario Institute of Technology, Canada Youssef Iraqi, Dhofar University, Oman Gregory S.
