-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] ICAC'07 CFP Datum: Thu, 28 Dec 2006 00:03:48 +0100 Von: Beniamino Di Martino <beniamino.dimartino(a)unina.it> Organisation: "OptimaNumerics" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.optimanumerics.com> The 4th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Autonomic Computing (ICAC-07) Call for Papers 11 - 15 June, 2007, Jacksonville, Florida, USA WWW: http://www.autonomic-conference.org E-mail: icac(a)caip.rutgers.edu Sponsored by: IEEE IEEE Computer Society ACM Cooperation with: AAAI (approval pending) ********************************************* Title/Abstract submissions: 10:00 PM PST, Jan 5, 2007 Full paper submissions: 10:00 PM PST, Jan 10, 200 ********************************************* To deal with the increasing complexity of large-scale computing systems, computers and applications must learn to manage themselves, in accordance with high-level guidance from humans -- a vision that has been referred to as ``autonomic computing". Meeting the grand challenges of autonomic computing requires scientific and technological advances in a wide variety of fields, as well as new software and system architectures that support the effective integration of the constituent technologies. The purpose of the 4th International Conference on Autonomic Computing is to bring together researchers and practitioners addressing aspects of self-management in computing systems, thereby developing and nurturing a community that can work together to realize the vision of large-scale self-managing systems. Papers are solicited on a broad array of topics of relevance to autonomic computing; particularly those that bear on connections and relationships among different areas of research or report on prototype systems or experiences. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: o Autonomic computing systems or prototype systems that exhibit self-monitoring, self-configuration, self-optimization, self-healing, and/or self-protection. o Specific self-managing components, such as server, storage, network, data center or specific application elements. Emphasis should be placed on techniques or lessons that may generalize to other components. o Management topics, such as specification and modeling of business level policies and their mapping to runtime management, including service-level agreements, negotiation or conversation support, and behavior enforcement, design processes, tie in with IT governance, and interaction with legacy systems. o Fundamental science of self-managing systems: understanding, controlling, or exploiting emergent behavior, fault-tolerance, machine learning, control theory, predictive methods and their use to automate manual operations and enforce behavior. o Software architectures for self-managing systems, based on interoperable Grid Services, agent-based systems, Web Services, model-based systems or novel paradigms such as biological, economic or social. o System-level technologies, middleware or services that entail interactions among two or more components of self-managing systems (e.g., health monitoring and performance understanding, dependency analysis, problem localization or remediation, workload management, and provisioning). o Operating system support for autonomic systems, including virtualization, migration, and distributed systems technologies. o Interfaces to autonomic systems, including user interfaces, interfaces for monitoring and controlling behavior, techniques for defining, distributing, and understanding policies. o Toolkits, environments, models, languages, runtime and compiler technologies for building self-managing components, systems or applications. o Experiences with autonomic system or component prototypes: measurements, evaluations, or analyses of system behavior, user studies, or experiences with large-scale deployments of self-managing systems or applications. PAPER/POSTER SUBMISSIONS AND PUBLICATION ======================================== Full papers (a maximum of 10 pages in length) and posters (2 pages) are invited on a wide variety of topics relating to autonomic computing as indicated above. All manuscripts will be reviewed and judged on merits including correctness, originality, technical strength, quality of presentation, and relevance to the conference themes.

Research on environments recognizes the environment as a first-class abstraction in multiagent systems. On the one hand, the environment is an essential part of any multiagent system, it is the part of the world in with which the agents interact and in which the effects of the agents will be observed and evaluated. On the other hand, the environment can also be used creatively in the design of multiagent systems. Agents can exploit the environment to share information and coordinate their behavior. A clean separation of agent and environment concerns helps to manage the huge complexity of engineering complex real-world applications. FOCUS OF THE SPECIAL ISSUE The focus of this special issue is on the engineering of environments in multiagent systems (MAS). Topics include but are not limited to: - Responsibilities of environments in MAS - Modularization of environments - Software architecture and patterns for environments in MAS - Agent architecture versus environment architecture - Design and implementation of environment infrastructure for perception, interaction, and communication - Environment support for social structures (organizations, roles...) - Design and implementation of indirect interaction and stigmergic approaches (use of marks, digital pheromones, field-based approaches, overhearing, tag-based interaction, etc.) - Topology and distribution of environments - Middleware and environments for MAS - Aspect-oriented software development for environments in MAS - Environments for emergence and self-organizing systems - Environments for MAS and autonomic properties (self-configuration, self-tuning, self-healing, etc.) - Engineering of electronic institutions - Engineering of law governed interaction - Environment support for service-oriented agent systems - Environment support for mobile and ad-hoc agent systems - Environments in MAS simulation - Experiences with developing MAS applications in which the environment plays a central role SUBMISSIONS We welcome the submission of original research papers that are not under review for a workshop, conference or other journal. We seek theoretical, experimental, methodological as well as application papers. Submissions will be peer reviewed by at least three reviewers. Selection criteria include: relevance, technical correctness, originality of the contribution and quality of exposition. The submission should be 15-18 pages in length, including figures and references. The paper must be formatted according to the MAGS style (http://www.iospress.nl/html/15741702_ita.html). Submissions must be sent in PDF format to mags-e4mas(a)cs.kuleuven.be.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] CfP CoMA Workshop at IEEE WETICE-07 Datum: Wed, 20 Dec 2006 11:19:07 +0100 Von: Manfred Bortenschlager <manfred.bortenschlager(a)salzburgresearch.at> Organisation: "OptimaNumerics" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.optimanumerics.com> ======================================================================== C A L L F O R P A P E R S ======================================================================== International IEEE Workshop on Interdisciplinary Aspects of Coordination Applied to Pervasive Environments: Models and Applications (CoMA) Web: http://mowi.salzburgresearch.at/wetice At the 16th IEEE International Workshops on Enabling Technologies: Infrastructures for Collaborative Enterprises (WETICE) Web: http://www.wetice.org June 18-20, 2007 Institut National des Telecommunications INT, Paris, France ======================================================================== WORKSHOP INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES ==================================== Coordination is significantly responsible for the effectiveness, performance and quality of complex systems and as a concept it is not restricted to computer-based systems. An explicit handling and a careful integration of accurate coordination mechanisms enables an enhancement of the overall system behaviour and contributes to improvements in terms of flexibility, adaptability, maintenance, and exchangeability. The concept is cross-sectional and a great impact may be reached in different application areas if effective methods and models can be designed, implemented, validated, and deployed. Coordination, moreover, is an essential prerequisite for collaborative and telecooperative applications, which are of prime interest to the WETICE series. The CoMA workshop aims at the interdisciplinary aspects of coordination in general, and examines their application to ubiquitous and pervasive environments in particular. The overall goal is to support the users' collaborative intentions in such environments as effectively, imperceptibly, and unobtrusively as possible. An incorporation of appropriate coordination mechanisms shall deliver the improvements stated above to pervasive systems. The goal of this workshop is to bring together on the one hand, scientists who are either conducting research directly on pervasive computing systems, coordination science, or indirectly in related fields such as artificial intelligence, collaborative systems, CSCW, systems research, complexity management, or process management. On the other hand, this workshop particularly welcomes the contributions of researchers and/or practitioners who concentrate on concrete applications where a combination of coordination and pervasive systems appears to be beneficial, such as emergency management or health care systems, and can report on that. The workshop particularly focuses on discussions about coordination and pervasiveness, the current state of research efforts, and practical experiences with the clear vision of generating mutual benefits for the participants. To support this, opportunities for showcases, demonstrations, and in-depth discussions will be provided. Eventually, interdisciplinary and joint efforts shall be fostered and future co-operations on research activities shall be triggered. TOPICS AND APPLICATIONS ======================= All topics related to the interdisciplinary aspects of coordination are welcome as soon as these are in some way relevant for or applicable to ubiquitous and pervasive systems. The following incomprehensive listing gives examples of such potential topics: * Theoretical coordination models and foundations for pervasive systems * Coordination middleware (such as space- or event-based approaches) * Coordination mechanisms in service-oriented architectures * Distributed and P2P-based coordination * Coordination in embedded and real-time systems * Coordination issues in sensor networks * Coordination dependent on context * Strategies to cope with heterogeneity, dynamics, mobility and/or pervasiveness * Distributed constraint satisfaction * Location-based coordination models * Coordination in multi-agent systems * Improved intuitive usage through integrated coordination * Case studies, evaluations and assessments about the benefits of coordination * Interdisciplinary aspects of coordination Coordination and contained topics are multidisciplinary and, hence, can be viewed as orthogonal to a multitude of pervasive application areas which shall be explored in this workshop, too. Examples include but are not limited to: # Coordinative aspects in collaborative applications like CSCW, groupware, or games # Emergency management systems # Health care systems # Decision-support systems # Geo-Collaboration # Operations research # Complexity-, constraint-, conflict-, and workflow management # Special-purpose coordination languages and tools IMPORTANT DATES =============== Full paper submission: February 15, 2007 Authors Notification: April 13, 2007 Camera-ready versions: May 12, 2007 WETICE advanced registration with discount: June 1, 2007 WETICE workshops and on-site registration: June 18-20, 2007 Deadline for final reports by workshop Chairs: July 9, 2007 SUBMISSION AND PROCEEDINGS ========================== Papers up to six pages (including figures, tables and references) can be submitted. Submitted papers have to follow the IEEE Proceedings Format, which is singlespaced, two columns, 10pt Times Roman font.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] IJCIR Special Issue on Particle Swarm Optimization Datum: Tue, 19 Dec 2006 10:11:31 +0100 Von: Patrick SIARRY <siarry(a)univ-paris12.fr> Organisation: "OptimaNumerics" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.optimanumerics.com> Call for papers Int. Journal of Computational Intelligence Research (IJCIR) Feature Issue on Particle Swarm Optimization Guest editors: Maurice Clerc, James Kennedy and Patrick Siarry Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is a stochastic, population-based optimization algorithm introduced in 1995 by James Kennedy and Russel Eberhart. Many variants of PSO have been developed since, including constrained, multiobjective, and discrete or combinatorial versions, and applications have been developed using PSO in many fields. An international three-year project, XPS (eXtended Particle Swarms Project http://xps-swarm.essex.ac.uk/) involving five universities, was launched in October 2004. Instead of competition/selection, like say in Evolutionary Computation, PSO makes use of cooperation, according to a paradigm sometimes called "swarm intelligence". Such systems are typically made up of a population of simple interacting agents without any centralized control, and inspired by examples that can be found in nature (ant colonies, bird flocking, animal herding, bacteria molding, fish schooling, etc.) We take the opportunity of the second French-speaking PSO seminar OEP'2007 in April 2007 in Paris (http://www.particleswarm.info/oep_2007) to prepare a special issue of IJCIR about this method (that issue will include the extended versions of some communications presented at OEP2007, but all contributions outside the frame of the seminar are welcome). The goal is to collect state of-the-art research papers that discuss recent developments in that area and to highlight some general ideas. Therefore, authors are invited to submit their original and unpublished works including, but not limited to, the following: Modelling and analysis of PSO variations. Works about easy to use methods adaptive or even parameter-less ones would be particularly welcome Theoretical optimization studies applicable to PSO Comparisons with some other methods Hybrid methods that make use of PSO Real life applications Important dates Deadline for submissions: April 30th, 2007 Date of completion of the reviewing process: June 30th, 2007 Submission process We encourage authors to send submissions via email in PDF or Postscript format to Maurice.Clerc(a)WriteMe.com. The length of the camera-ready papers (if accepted) will be limited to 8 IJCIR style (use link http://www.padath.net/ to access LaTeX and Word styles) pages. Alternatively four hard copies could be sent by mail to: Patrick Siarry University of Paris 12, LiSSi 61, avenue du Général de Gaulle, 94010 Créteil, FRANCE

Intelligent computing is generally known to be computationally intensive from the point of view of resources required: time, memory, bandwidth. As this is usually thought to be a drawback, distributed computing is expected to give an impetus to its practical applications. Moreover, intelligent techniques have also proved their usefulness to core distributed computing technologies like: planning & scheduling, load balancing, replication, resource allocation and management, etc. Therefore, the emergent field of intelligent and distributed computing is expected to pose new challenges of adaptation and fruitful combination of both areas. The aim of this symposium is to bring together researchers involved in intelligent and distributed computing to allow cross-fertilization and synergy of ideas and to enable advancement of researches in the field. The symposium welcomes submissions of original papers concerning all aspects of intelligent and distributed computing ranging from concepts and theoretical developments to advanced technologies and innovative applications. Papers acceptance and publication will be judged based on their relevance to the symposium theme, clarity of presentation, originality and accuracy of results and proposed solutions. Topics include, but are not limited to, broadly understood: - Intelligent service composition and orchestration - E-service and Web intelligence - Multi-agent systems - Information extraction and retrieval in distributed and environments - Data mining and knowledge discovery in distributed environments - Semantic and knowledge grids - Intelligent integration of data and processes - Distributed problem solving - Ontologies for describing resources and services - Autonomic and adaptive computing - Intelligence in mobile and ubiquitous computing - Intelligence in cooperative information systems, groupware and workflows, virtual enterprizes - Intelligent applications in e-business/e-commerce, e-learning, e-health, e-science, e-government, ..... - Your Topic Paper Submission and Publication ================================ All accepted papers will be included in the Symposium (Post-)Proceedings, which will be published by Springer as part of one of their series Studies in Computational Intelligence or Studies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing. Papers should have at most 10 pages length and must be formatted according to Springer format. Submissions and reviews will be automatically handled by a system provided by the organizers.
