 Abstract:
 Today, we have grown from a need based society to a society that 
              demands our comforts. No longer are we at the mercy of the speed 
              and memory of our computers, but desire the computers to work 
              for us for our convenience. No longer are we satisfied with key 
              boards and mouse, but we need more interactive computers that 
              can realize our commands and feelings, even if inaccurate- we 
              want our computers to be our Jeeves. This, coupled with the need 
              for security and safety of people working in difficult environments 
              has fuelled the need for improved and more versatile human computer 
              interface systems, and brought computer engineers closer to sensor 
              scientists and biomedical engineers.
 
 Researchers who work on this complex topic belong to diverse backgrounds 
              and the aim of this workshop is to assemble such researchers together 
              to discuss their ideas and solutions. The topics that will be 
              covered include:
 1. Design of Biosensors.
 2. Biosensor networks.
 3. Biosensor data fusion and localization.
 4. Software systems for managing diverse sensor inputs.
 5. Biomedical equipment designers.
 6. Signal Processing for multiple sensors
 7. Source identification for biosignals.
 8. Source identification for audio commands.
 9. Source separation for audio and video data
 10. Video data analysis for command actions.
 11. Video and audio segmentation.
 12. Image analysis for human command gestures.
 13. Biosignal acquisition techniques
 14. Biosignal analysis and classification techniques.
 15. Unimodal dedicated and multimodal systems
 16. Wireless transmission of biosignals
 17. Biometric systems
 18. Gait analysis and biosignals.
 19. ICA for biosignals.
 20. Issues of safety and reliability of biosignals.
 21. Issues of biosignals and artifacts.
 22. Determining the quality of biosignal recordings.
