Welcome to the 6th edition of the International Workshop on Data Management for Sensor Networks, a.k.a., DMSN'09! The program of this year's workshop spans a variety of themes within the DMSN domain, including systems-oriented and application-oriented approaches, coming from research teams from Europe, North America, and Asia.
DMSN'09 received 16 submissions for research papers, out of those we were able to accept 6 papers, yielding a healthy acceptance rate of about 38%. In addition to the traditional track of research papers, this year we also invited submissions for demos and/or short papers. We received 4 submissions in that category, and decided to accept one of those, plus 3 papers that were originally submitted as research papers but that the Program Committee considered that they could be presented as short papers during the workshop.
Despite the economically hard times we were very fortunate to count on Olsonet, Inc. (Canada), Arch Rock Corporation (USA), and the Swiss National Center for Mobile Information and Communication Systems (NCCRMICS) (Switzerland), who have kindly served as sponsors to DMSN'09. Arch Rock and NCCR-MICS have also agreed to participate at the workshop giving talks and demos (Olsonet was unfortunately unable to participate due to schedule conflicts). We are particularly pleased with this as it will provide the opportunity for close, and much needed, interaction between researchers and industry.

Using XML as a standardized data exchange format in wireless sensor networks is a means to support more complex data management and heterogeneous networks. Moreover, XML is a key feature towards service-oriented sensor networks. Recent work has shown ...
Extracting tennis statistics from wireless sensing environments
Creating statistics from sporting events is now widespread with most efforts to automate this process using various sensor devices. The problem with many of these statistical applications is that they require proprietary applications to process the ...
Adaptive random sensor selection for field reconstruction in wireless sensor networks
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) allow for the sampling of a physical phenomenon over long periods of time and across extended geographical areas [1]. Once reported to a central collecting unit, the samples may be used to reconstruct the developing of ...
Quality aware query scheduling in wireless sensor networks
We study query scheduling in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) with a focus on two important metrics: Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of Data (QoD). The motivation comes from our observation that most WSN scheduling techniques ignore the quality ...
Validated cost models for sensor network queries
Generating a good execution plan for a declarative query has long been a central problem in data management research. With the rise in interest in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) as query processing platforms, it was quickly noticed that the ...

Wireless sensor networks link the physical and digital worlds enabling both surveillance as well as scientific exploration. In both cases, on-line detection of interesting events can be accomplished with continuous queries (CQs) in a Data Stream ...
FSort: external sorting on flash-based sensor devices
In long-term deployments of Wireless Sensor Networks, it is often more efficient to store sensor readings locally at each device and transmit those readings to the user only when requested (i.e., in response to a user query). Many of the techniques that ...
