**************************************************************

The International Conference on Embedded Wireless Systems and Networks, 
EWSN, is a highly selective single-track international conference 
focusing on the latest research results on embedded systems and wireless 
networking, which are key enablers for visionary scenarios in fields 
such as the Internet of Things and Cyber-Physical Systems.

This year’s feature topic is “unconventional communication”.

Building on the past 18 years of success, the 19th edition will be held 
in Linz, Austria. The conference will take place in hybrid format, 
meaning on-site and virtual participation is envisioned.

The conference continues its aim for broad, world-wide impact. 
Proceedings will be indexed in the ACM Digital Library, SCOPUS, and 
other prominent digital libraries.
