-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] IEEE International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing and Applications (SOCA 2007) (Call for Papers) Datum: Sat, 16 Dec 2006 23:47:47 +0800 Von: Yue Zhang <yuez(a)uci.edu> Organisation: "OptimaNumerics" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.optimanumerics.com> Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this announcement. Conference website: http://linux.ece.uci.edu/soca07/ IEEE International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing and Applications (SOCA 2007) June 19-20, 2007, Newport Beach, California Important Dates * Paper submission: Jan 7, 2006 * Paper decision: Mar 1, 2007 * Final version: April 10, 2007 * Conference date: June 19-20, 2007 Aims and scope Service-oriented computing has emerged as a major software architecture in the past few years. SOC using Web services is based on the open Internet standard protocols and is easier for enterprises to support. The success of service-oriented systems also relies on the wide adoption of the core technologies from all interconnected business partners and computing environments. Many researchers therefore are developing new models, technologies, and platforms for SOC. They also build flexible and adaptive infrastructures for services developments and management in order to facilitate the dynamic integration and composition of services across different platforms and organizations. While computer and engineering sciences have laid the foundation for service-oriented computing, the study produces more then just the tools to automate transactions and/or system integration. Indeed, by employing appropriate information and knowledge, service-oriented computing promises an unprecedented opportunity to rethink fundamental assumptions about markets and economic efficacy through electronic markets and virtual organizations, and open a whole range of new research questions. This conference provides a forum for researchers who are interested in the issues and practices related to the development of service-oriented computing, design and technology, including theoretical foundations, service infrastructures, and their applications and experiences. We welcome innovative service research from both academic and industry communities. The proceedings of SOCA conference 2007 will be published by IEEE. The best papers from the proceedings will be selected for publication in the new Springer Journal on Service-Oriented Computing and Applications (SOCA), to be inaugurated in March 2007, as well as special issues in many other journals. Topics covered by the conference include, but are not limited to, the following topics: * Service-Oriented Architecture o services analysis, design, development, and test o service orchestration and composition o business process integration and management o quality and reliability of web services * Service-Oriented Software Engineering o formal methods for services analysis, design, development, and test o SOA solution patterns o services matching and policy o verification and validation of SOA systems * Service System Technology o Service brokering and service integration o platform support for web services o QoS and end-to-end performance o Security, trust and privacy * Service-Oriented Semantic Computing o service representation and knowledge o software agent and service discovery o semantic web and ontological engineering o service evolutionary approaches * Service-Oriented Applications o e-business e-commerce and m-commerce o e-entertainment o e-government o e-health Conference website: http://linux.ece.uci.edu/soca07/ -- Yue Zhang Ph.D. Candidate The Henry Samueli School of Engineering University of California, Irvine University of California, Irvine Irvine, CA 92697-2700 yuez(a)uci.edu http://link.ece.uci.edu/~yuez/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: computational.science-unsubscribe(a)lists.optimanumerics.com For additional commands, e-mail: computational.science-help(a)lists.optimanumerics.com Computational Science mailing list hosting is provided by OptimaNumerics (http://www.OptimaNumerics.com) ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Event-based systems have been established in industry and research for many years. They are now gaining increasing momentum as witnessed by current efforts in areas including event-driven architectures, business process management and modeling, Grid computing, Web services notifications, and message-oriented middleware. Events represent asynchronous state transitions in the environment and event-based computing refers to the computational support and abstractions required to adequately manage and process events. Continuing DEBS as an independent conference aims to satisfy this growing and interdisciplinary interest in event-based computing. The objectives of the DEBS Conference are to provide a forum dedicated to the dissemination of original research, the discussion of practical insights, and the reporting on relevant experience relating to event-based computing previously scattered across several communities. The scope of the conference covers all topics relevant to event-based computing ranging from those discussed in related disciplines (e.g., coordination, software engineering, peer-to-peer systems, Grid computing, and streaming databases), over domain-specific topics of event-based computing (e.g., workflow management systems, mobile computing, pervasive and ubiquitous computing, sensor networks, user interfaces, component integration, Web services, and embedded systems), to enterprise related topics (e.g., enterprise application integration, real time enterprises, and Web services notifications). ================ Conference Scope ================ The topics addressed by the conference include, but are not limited to: Models, Architectures, and Paradigms * Event-driven architectures * Complex event processing * Basic interaction models (publish/subscribe, register/notify, hybrids etc.) * Event schemas and type systems * Languages for event correlation and patterns, streaming and continuous queries, and data fusion * Performance modeling and prediction based on analytic approaches * Design and programming methodologies (e.g., MDA-based approaches) * Event-based business process management and modeling * Experimental methodologies (e.g., design of simulations and experiments) * Models for static and dynamic environments (e.g., client mobility models, distribution of clients and their behavior) Middleware Infrastructures for Event-Based Computing * Federated event-based systems (e.g., scoping and transforming) * Middleware for actuator and sensor networks * Algorithms and protocols (e.g., data diffusion, content-based routing, subscription merging, matching, pattern detection, etc.) * Event dissemination based on peer-to-peer routing substrates * Implementations of streaming queries, transformations, or correlation engines * Fault-tolerance, reliability, availability, and recovery * Security issues (e.g., confidentiality, integrity, privacy, trust) * (Self-)Management (e.g., reconfiguration, adaptation, and organization) * Context and location awareness * Mobility and resource-constrained device support Applications, Experiences, and Requirements * Use cases and applications of event-based systems * Real-world application deployments using event-based middleware * Domain-specific deployments of event-based systems * Real-world data characterizing event-based applications * Benchmarks, performance evaluations, and testbeds * Seamless integration of event-based mechanisms into middleware platforms * Application requirements for next-generation event-based solutions * Relation to other architectures such as SOA * Enterprise application integration * Event-driven business process management (e.g., using RFID in logistics and healthcare) * Information logistics =============== Important Dates =============== Paper Submission: March 14, 2007 Author Notification: May 7, 2007 Final Manuscript due: May 28, 2007 DEBS Conference: June 20-22, 2007 =================== Conference Location =================== The conference will be held at the University of Toronto, Canada. ================= Program Committee ================= Jean M.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] Call for Papers Datum: Mon, 11 Dec 2006 16:15:09 +0000 Von: Peter Milligan <p.milligan(a)qub.ac.uk> Antwort an: p.milligan(a)qub.ac.uk Organisation: "OptimaNumerics" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.optimanumerics.com> Call for Papers for a special issue in the international journal Artificial Intelligence Review Title: Artificial Intelligence and the Grid Guest Editors: R. H. Perrott, P. Milligan and P. P. Sage Queen’s University Belfast The concept of the grid can be regarded as a facility with a number of layered components. The first layer is the computational grid which will provide the raw computing power, high speed bandwidth interconnection and associate data storage. The second layer, which is superimposed on top of the computational grid, is known as the information grid which will allow easily accessible connections to major sources of information and tools for its analysis and visualisation. The next layer is the knowledge grid which involves special techniques that give added value to the information and also provide intelligent guidance for decision-makers. This Call for Papers is concerned mainly with this last layer. Artificial intelligence has been a main stream research area for many years and the resulting numerous AI tools and techniques have been deployed in a wide variety of application areas. For example, expert systems and neural networks have been used in the various processes associated with autoparallelisation.

FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS ====================== Submissions should contain recent original research relevant to the topics of the conference. There are two possible modes of submission: * Full papers with complete proofs. In this case also an abstract of two to four pages is requested. * Extended abstracts of at least four pages containing full results, an outline of the proofs and all of the main ideas. If the result should be published, a full paper must be handed in later. MEGA is the acronym for Effective Methods in Algebraic Geometry (and its equivalent in Italian, French, Spanish, German, Russian etc.), a series of roughly biannual conferences on computational and application aspects of Algebraic Geometry and related topics, with very high standards. Previous meetings were held in 1990 (Castiglioncello, Italy), 1992 (Nice, France), 1994 (Santander, Spain), 1996 (Eindhoven, Nederlands), 1998 (Malo, France), 2000 (Bath, UK), 2003 (Kaiserslautern, Germany) and 2005 (Alghero, Italy). Proceedings containing a selection of the papers and invited talks presented at previous conferences have been published by Birkhaeuser in the series Progress in Mathematics (volumes 94, 109, 143), by the Journal of Pure and Applied Algebra (volumes 117, 118, 139, 164), and by the Journal of Symbolic Computation (volume 39/3-4 and one double issue to appear). We plan to publish selected papers from the conference in a special issue of the Journal of Symbolic Computation.
