Special Issue of Sensors & Transducers Journal: All authors of a paper published in the Proceedings of the 2008 edition of the IEEE International Workshop on Robotic and Sensors Environments (ROSE 2008) are invited to submit an extended version of their paper to be considered for publication in a special issue of the Sensors & Transducers Journal to be released in 2009. Manuscripts to be considered for this special issue should be based on a paper published in the ROSE 2008 Proceedings, and should be significantly extended beyond the scope of the workshop paper (both in terms of research results and methodology). In order to avoid any technical delays, authors are strongly encouraged to follow the preparation and formatting instructions that can be found here: http://www.sensorsportal.com/HTML/DIGEST/Submition.htm The maximum number of pages per article is not restricted. Authors are invited to submit their manuscript both in MS Word (doc) and Acrobat (PDF) formats by e-mail to ppayeur@site.uottawa.ca with a clear indication that it is a submission for the Special Issue for ROSE 2008. The deadline for extended manuscripts submission is January 30, 2009.
