Such the complexity is getting more critical along with ubiquitous permeation of embedded devices and other pervasive systems. To cope with the growing and ubiquitous complexity, autonomic computing focuses on self-manageable computing and communication systems that perform self-awareness, self-configuration, self-optimization, self-healing, self-protection and other self-ware operations to the maximum extent possible without human intervention or guidance. Any autonomic system must be trustworthy to avoid the risk of losing control and retain confidence that the system will not fail. Trust and/or distrust relationships in the Internet and pervasive infrastructure based global computing exist universally in the course of dynamic interaction and cooperation of various users, systems and services. Trusted computing targets computing and communication systems as well as services that are available, predictable, traceable, controllable, assessable, sustainable, dependable, persist-able, security/privacy protect-able, etc. A series of grand challenges exist to achieve practical self-manageable autonomic systems with truly trustworthy services. ATC-06 addresses the most innovative research and development in these challenging areas and includes all technical aspects related to autonomic and trusted computing and communication.

Taipei, Taiwan http://ins.cn.nctu.edu.tw/smc2006/ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Today’s business organizations are characterized by global, dynamic, uncertain and error-prone environments. In order to compete in such contexts, enterprises need to effectively stay adaptable to environmental and internal changes, constantly reconsider and optimize business processes, and rapidly develop new services and products to support evolving business. The adaptability in all aspects of workflow management (such as modeling, validation, and execution) becomes of a paramount importance. The research on workflow management has been around for a couple of decades, and many approaches and tools have been developed and gained certain range of practical applications. However, how to dynamically assess the constantly changing conditions and adapt workflows accordingly still remain as huge challenges in both academic and industry worlds. As workflow systems currently provide little support for such challenges, the goal of this special session is to provide researchers with an opportunity to discuss how workflow systems can better deal with these issues. We expect to draw together help identify the breadth of current work, commonalities, gaps, potential collaborations and future research directions. Relevant topics include but not limit to: • Dynamic workflow modeling, verification and assessment • Infrastructures for dynamically modifiable process models • Inter-organizational dynamic workflows • Formal methods in dynamic workflows • Methodologies for workflow management • Tool development and integration • Workflow management case study • Dynamic workflow patterns *JOURNAL SPECIAL ISSUE ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Extended and revised versions of accepted papers will be considered for a Special Issue of the International Journal of Intelligent Control and Systems (**http://www.ijics.org/**).* IMPORTANT DATES: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Feb. 20, 2006 Submission of paper information to the organizers March 1, 2006 Deadline for submission of papers May 15, 2006 Notification of acceptance July 1, 2006 Final camera-ready papers due SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interested contributors please e-mail your paper information (title, authors, abstract, and contact information) to BOTH of the following two organizers by January 25, 2006.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: PARA'06, Minisymposium on Novel Data Formats and Algorithms Datum: Sat, 11 Feb 2006 12:48:07 +0100 (MET) Von: Jerzy Wasniewski <jw(a)imm.dtu.dk> Organisation: "OptimaNumerics" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.optimanumerics.com> Minisymposium on Novel Data Formats and Algorithms for Dense Linear Algebra Computations Abstract: Recently, recursion was introduced into the area of Dense Linear Algebra with the intent of producing new algorithms as well as improving its existing algorithms. Recursion, via the divide-and-conquer paradigm, introduced variable blocking to complement the standard fixed block algorithms. In particular, new data structures for dense linear algebra became an active research area. This Mini-Symposium will focus on both new data structures and/or new or existing algorithms for high performing dense linear algebra algorithms. To be held at the PARA 2006 WORKSHOP ON STATE-OF-THE-ART IN SCIENTIFIC AND PARALLEL COMPUTING Umea, Sweden June 18-21 2006 http://www.hpc2n.umu.se/para06/ A limited number of contributed, 20 minute talks will be selected for this minisymposium. An extended abstract consisting of a pdf-file of at most 4 pages (including references) formatted according to the LNCS rules should be sent before February 15, 2006. Notice that the extended abstract should be formatted as a regular paper and also include a short abstract of at most 150 words. The short abstract must also be submitted as plain text (allowing necessary LaTeX symbols). The acceptance of the extended abstract will be send no later than March 15, 2006. Extended abstracts of accepted submissions will be provided electronically and a booklet of the short abstracts will be handed out at PARA'06. After the workshop, full original papers of at most 10 pages will be reviewed for publication in the workshop proceedings to be published in the Springer series Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS). The full papers, formatted according to the rules of the LNCS, should be submitted by September 15, 2006. Additional information will be provided in due time.
