This Workshop focuses on advancing technical and engineering solutions for seamless data exchange across space-based, terrestrial, and planetary networks. The workshop emphasizes research in Delay-/Disruption-Tolerant Networking (DTN) architectures and protocols, including the Bundle Protocol (BP), Licklider Transmission Protocol (LTP), and related technologies.

Topics of Interest: We invite submissions on topics including, but not limited to:

    • Solar System Internet and Interplanetary Networking
    • Lunar and Mars Communications
    • Satellite IoT Integration and Emergency Communications
    • DTN Architectures and Applications
    • BPv7, BPSec, and Bundle Routing Protocols
    • Time-Variant Routing and Delay-Tolerant Network Management
    • Key Management Strategies and Security Contexts for DTNs
    • Naming and Addressing in Space Networks
    • Machine Learning and Optimization for Space-Terrestrial Networking

Paper Submission Format:

Authors are encouraged to submit full research papers formatted according to IEEE WiSEE conference templates. All submissions will be peer-reviewed based on originality, technical merit, and relevance to the workshop themes. Accepted papers will be included in IEEE proceedings.

Presentation Format:

The workshop will feature a mix of keynote talks, technical paper presentations, panel discussions, and interactive sessions such as hackathons or live demonstrations.

1. Keynotes and Invited Talks: Delivered by experts from academia, industry, and space agencies.
2. Paper Presentations: 15-20 minute presentations followed by Q&A.
3. Panels: Moderated discussions on thematic challenges and opportunities in space-terrestrial networking.
4. Interactive Sessions: Hands-on activities and demonstrations showcasing innovative tools and techniques

Participation:

The workshop is open to researchers, engineers, and practitioners from academia, industry, and space agencies. In-person participation is strongly encouraged, with remote options available for a reduced registration fee.

SPONSORS

Passive Wireless Sensor Technology (PWST)

Workshop Chair: Darren Boyd ([email protected])

The workshop aims to bring Passive Wireless Sensor (PWS) technology developers, manufacturers, and potential industry end-users together to understand the larger market drivers that will drive costs down and applications up. We will concentrate on Aerospace applications at this workshop, so capability that helps the aerospace manufacturing, mission, and maintenance will be a priority.

Objectives:

    • Understand various PWS technologies, actual & potential uses, and maturity.
    • Share future applications/advantages/limitations PWST in various industries and agencies.
    • Precipitate individual & group “next step” thinking to further develop/apply PWST.
    • Continue building an accessible library of PWST Workshop publicly released presentations

Paper Submission Format:

Selected speakers will present for 25 min followed by 5 min for questions and answers.
Presenters are required to register for the WiSEE conference and attend in person.
Presenters are encouraged, but not required, to submit technical papers to the WiSEE general technical tracks.
