It is our great pleasure to welcome you to The First ACM Annual International Workshop on Mission-Oriented Wireless Sensor Networking -- ACM MiSeNet'12. The first edition of this year's workshop is the premier forum for presentation of research results and experience reports on leading edge issues of mission-oriented wireless sensor networks, including models, systems, applications, and theory. The mission of the workshop is to understand the major technical and application challenges as well as exchange and discuss scientific and engineering ideas related to architecture, protocols, algorithms, and application design in mission-oriented wireless sensor networks, and identify new directions for future research and development. ACM MiSeNet gives researchers and practitioners a unique opportunity to share their perspectives with others interested in the various aspects of mission-oriented wireless sensor networking.
The call for papers attracted 18 submissions from Africa, Asia, Europe, South America, and the United States. The program committee accepted 9 papers that cover a variety of topics, including mobility models in participatory sensing, architecture design for highly-scalable and low duty-cycle sensor networks, middleware for resource and mission oriented sensor networks, and fault tolerance. In addition, the program includes a keynote speech by Professor Sajal K. Das on the challenges and future directions of cyber-physical and networked sensor systems. We hope that these proceedings will serve as a valuable reference for researchers and developers in the area of missionoriented wireless sensor networking.

Evaluating mobility models in participatory sensing
Pervasive wireless sensor networks offer many mission oriented opportunities. In this paper we evaluate the potential benefits of combining fixed and mobile sensor nodes as part of a mission-oriented, participatory sensor network deployed on an urban ...
Socially-aware market mechanism for participatory sensing
By using personal mobile devices, participatory sensing provides an alternative to deploying dedicated mobile nodes to perform data acquisition tasks in areas where human carriers are already present. However, this application comes with some unique ...
Could human intelligence enhance communication opportunities in mission-oriented opportunistic networks?
Mission-oriented networks change the network communications paradigm with the involvement of human beings in the network. In a mission-oriented network, nodes may exhibit purposeful mobility in order to achieve mission goals. Additionally, human beings, ...
An effective approach for tolerating simultaneous failures in wireless sensor and actor networks
Wireless Sensor and Actor Networks (WSANs) engage mobile nodes with actuators to respond to certain events in inhospitable environments. The harsh surroundings make actors susceptible to failure. Tolerating occasional actor failure is very important to ...
Collaborating with correlation for energy efficient WSN
This paper describes a novel approach for collaboration in WSN that substantially reduces energy expenditure in the network by exploiting spatial correlation among nodes. The idea behind the scheme is that the whole range of measurements is partitioned ...
On the optimal allocation of adversarial resources
Security is important for mission-critical wireless sensor networks (WSNs). This is especially so because powerful adversaries could compromise and control a significant fraction of the network nodes. A plethora of schemes has been developed to secure ...
Ripple-2: a non-collaborative; asynchronous; and open architecture for highly-scalable and low duty-cycle WSNs
The design of Ripple-2, a wireless in-situ soil moisture sensing system is presented in this paper. The main objective of such system is to collect high fidelity and fine grained data both spatially and temporally compared to radar remote sensing, which ...
Using public online information to facilitate message forwarding in opportunistic networks
Message forwarding in opportunistic networks, is a challenging problem owing to the high dynamics of the embedded network. Different from most of the work targeting at this problem, instead of inferring people's movement from context or social knowledge,...
MARINE: MiddlewAre for resource and mission oriented sensor networks
There is a wide range of potential applications for wireless sensor networks (WSNs), each one with different features and requirements and defining a different mission for the sensor nodes to accomplish. In order to achieve the best network performance, ...
