[Fwd: [computational.science] EDA-PS'06 Call for papers. Note deadline is approaching]

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] EDA-PS'06 Call for papers. Note deadline is approaching Datum: Fri, 21 Apr 2006 19:52:51 +0300 Von: Opher Etzion <OPHER(a)il.ibm.com> Organisation: "OptimaNumerics" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.optimanumerics.com> CALL FOR PAPERS The First International Workshop on Event-driven Architecture, Processing and Systems (EDA-PS’06) http://edaps06.cc.gatech.edu/EDA-PS-cfp.htm September 18 2006, Chicago, USA In conjunction with ICWS 2006 / SCC 2006 Submission Deadline: April 25, 2006 One of the emerging styles of service interactions is the event-driven style. Event-Driven Architecture (EDA) is emerging as a variant of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) that is being supported by multiple vendors. EDA systems are widely used in enterprise integration applications, ranging from time-critical systems, agile process integration systems, managements of services and processes, delivery of information services, and awareness to business situations. There is a range of event processing middleware capabilities, including publish-subscribe services, which have been incorporated into standards such as CORBA and JMS, and into commercial systems, mediation services such as event transformation, aggregation, split and composition, and event pattern detection (complex event processing). Furthermore, the use of EDA systems continues to evolve and expand. Many applications today require event-based monitoring capabilities, ranging from digital data streaming systems, continuous query systems, system monitoring and management tools, to event-driven workflow engines, to name a few. There is a wide and growing interest in event processing techniques both for extending the capabilities and for improving the performance and ease of use of such EDA systems. This proposed workshop is to establish a forum that not only brings together researchers and practitioners from academia and industry to look at various aspects of event-driven processing and its relations to service oriented computing, functionality, implementation and applications, but also encourages and provides cross-fertilization between researchers and practitioners in all types of event processing. The workshop will contain papers and panel discussions on hot topics in EDA processing, systems, and applications, including, but are not limited to, the following topics: * Event-driven Architectures and relations to service-oriented architecture. * Event-driven business process management. * Event mediations and Enterprise Service Bus. * Information delivery services and implementation of “publish/subscribe” protocols. * Event processing languages and tools. * Event stream processing. * Event pattern detection. * Implementation infrastructure issues. * User experience, requirements, Use cases, and applications of event-driven systems. * Non-Functional requirements: scalability, high-availability, quality of service. * Security and privacy issues in event-based systems and applications. Duration: 1 Day. Important Dates: Paper Submission: April 25, 2006 Author Notification: May 25, 2006 Camera Ready Copy: June 15, 2006 Workshop day: September 18, 2006 Workshop Chairs: Prof. Dr. Ling Liu Georgia Institute of Technology Email: lingliu AT cc.gatech.edu Dr. Opher Etzion IBM Email: opher AT il.ibm.com Program Committee * Asaf Adi, IBM Research , Israel * Jose Alferes, Universidade Nova de Lisboa * Mikael Berndtsson , University of Skovde, Sweden * David Buttler, LLNL, USA * Antonio Carzaniga University of Colorado, USA * Ugur Cetintemel, Brown University, USA * Mani Chandy, Cal Tech, USA * Sharma Chakravarthy, university of Texas Arlington, USA * Norman Cohen , IBM Research, USA * Juergen Dingel , Queens University, Canada * Suzanne W.
