-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] CFP: Visual Languages and Computing 2007 Datum: Sat, 31 Mar 2007 13:51:42 -0500 (CDT) Von: Kang Zhang <kzhang(a)utdallas.edu> Organisation: "OptimaNumerics" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.optimanumerics.com> ________________________________________ | | | VLC'2007 - International Workshop on | | Visual Languages and Computing | |______________________________________| DEADLINE: 10 April 2007 Hotel Sofitel, San Francisco Bay 6-8 September 2007 Organized by Knowledge Systems Institute Digital Arts and Sciences Lab, UF Visual Computing Lab, UT-Dallas SCOPE AND TOPICS ================ Visual computing involves theory, methods and application of enhancing the visual space, along with human interaction, within the field of computing. One may visualize unstructured data, simple information structures, and more complicated structures such as automata, programs, and databases. Moreover, visual computing is a field that involves representation of artifacts and their behaviors or executions. Thus, it is possible to visualize heaps, their execution or entire programs in which the heap plays an algorithmic role. The ways in which the human interacts with the heap through pure visualization, touch, or sound becomes a relevant issue. The concept of transformation is integral to visual computing, where it is often convenient to transform one type of object into another sometimes for a specific group or individual. Aspects of visual computing are multi-facetted in goals that are to be achieved during information or language design. The following represents a short list of qualities that are of importance to the study within visual computing: efficiency, aesthetics, pleasure, emotion, engagement, immersion, collaboration, and culture. Aspects of art, engineering, and science play key roles where certain practitioners focus on design and engineering of visual interactions whereas others analyze and study these interactions (i.e., science). The International Workshop on Visual Languages and Computing will explore these issues, and will be held in conjunction with the 2007 International Conference of Distributed Multimedia Systems (http://www.ksi.edu/seke/dms07.html) to be held in San Francisco Bay Area, USA. 6-8 September 2007. Papers on all aspects and approaches to visual languages and computing are solicited, including interactive visual computing, computer-empowered visual computing, human-empowered visual computing, transformation algorithms for visual computing, and visual languages for visual computing. The following topics are of special interest: o Visual Languages o Visual Programming o Visual and Spatial/Temporal Reasoning o Visual Computing for Expert Communities o Visual Computing on Sensed Data o Gestural Computing o Aesthetic Computing o Ambient Information Interaction o Visual Computing in Bioinformatics and Systems o Fusion of Vision with Audio and Other Modalities o Human-Machine Interface Design o Human Vision Systems and Models o Visualization of Computational Processes o Large-Scale Scientific Visualization o Parallel/Distributed/Neural Computing and Representations for Visual Information o Pictorial Databases and Information Systems o Biomedical Imagery o Computer-Assisted Visual Art and Design PAPER SUBMISSION ================ Submissions that address research and development on the above and other related topics are strongly encouraged. All the submitted papers will be reviewed by the international Program Committee members. Accepted papers will be published in the Proceedings of DMS2007. A selection of the best papers will be invited for subsequent publication in a special issue of the Journal of Visual Languages and Computing. Papers of up to six (6) IEEE double-column pages should be submitted electronically. Detailed information on electronic submission will be provided at the VLC'2007 web site: http://www.ksi.edu/seke/vlc07.html.

In Grid Computing systems heterogeneous networked resources are utilized. Computational resources, storage, memory and bandwidth are complemented with content-oriented input from databases and web services. Hence such systems may operate in predefined and centrally organized ways, or coordination may be conducted in a self-organized, decentral manner. Although there are plenty of idle computing resources available on the internet, only a small percentage of these are actually utilized. One of the reasons for this could be a lack of reliability, availability, quality of service and security. Substantial work has been done on protocols, middleware, and services for security, discovery, sharing, management etc., of computing, storage, data and other resources within dynamic, distributed computing systems. Little attention has been dedicated to the economically efficient allocation of such resources, the embedding of common pricing and business schemes with content provision, as well as the generation of business models based on Grid utilization. Lately, several initiatives have started in order to generate substantial approaches in this area. The topic has emerged to become a key research topic in the domain of applying Grid technology in commercial applications such as service oriented architectures (SOA) and web services. Such approaches are fostering a wider commercial adoption of existing research-grade Grid computing systems in the services domain and enable completely novel business models in future. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Topics for this special issue include, but are not limited to: - Grid Economics o Engineering of Grid markets and Grid architectures o Economic resource allocation in Grid scenarios o Resource allocation in Grid scenarios o Environment descriptions and economic metrics for Grids o Simulation of Grid markets o Economics of Grid standardization o Grid systems¹ economy, its operation and deployment - Business Models for Grids and Utility Computing o Automated negotiation for Grid resource allocation o Pricing, charging and accounting issues of Grid resources o Suggestion for commercialization strategies for Grid approaches o Business application development for Grid services o Economic and business mechanisms in national computational Grid systems o Agent-based simulation of Grid environments and markets - Service Science o Engineering of eOrganizations o Computational and content services in Web 2.0 o Multi-tier offers: Computing and web services o Pricing and billing in service oriented architectures (SOA) o Evaluation of dynamic pricing and trading mechanisms for Grid and content resources o Generation of knowledge in complex decision situations in Grid allocation ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Manuscripts formatted along the guidelines for authors of the Journal of Grid Computing (http://www.springer.com/journal/10723/) must be submitted online under http://www.editorialmanager.com/grid/ before March 31st 2007 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Special Issue Editor: Daniel Veit University of Mannheim, Germany veit(a)uni-mannheim.de Special Issue Co-Editor: Wolfgang Gentzsch D-Grid Initiative, Germany Duke University, North Carolina, USA wgentzsch(a)d-grid.de ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Editors, Journal of Grid Computing : Péter Kacsuk and Ian Foster ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Prof. Dr. Daniel Veit Chair of Business Administration and Information Systems - E-Business and E-Government - Director of International Affairs Business School University of Mannheim, Germany Phone: +49-621-181-3321 http://veit.bwl.uni-mannheim.de/

After the success of the first two editions for the one day workshop in 2005 and 2006, we decided to propose a third edition in Vienna, 2007. Since the mid nineties and the emergence of Grids, many research activities have been initiated in relation to data management in these dynamic, heterogeneous and cross-organisational environments. The database community can offer her unique expertise in the management of very large, widely distributed databases. Conversely, Grids offer a novel and very exciting field of research for database scientists both in terms of application domains and fundamental research. This workshop is intended to bring together these two communities, and thus to offer a unique workspace for researchers to discuss and exchange ideas about the emerging challenges and opportunities offered by Data Grids. The first workshops raised interesting questions on the data management, and its particularities in a Grid. Relevant topics for the workshop include all aspects related to the management of data in a Grid (non-exhaustive list) : Data Access Data Interoperability Semantic Grids Mediation / Negotiation Security: access control, policy, privacy Data Placement: replication, migration Data Streams Metadata Management Indexing Query processing Caching Data Warehouses Unique identification of data entities Data Definition/Model Management Data De-identification Data scheduler and data-aware scheduling Information sharing Information dissemination Applications dealing with large databases Data management in Pervasive Grids Submission ---------- Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers that are not being considered for publication elsewhere. Manuscripts should be submitted electronically as PDF files via email to : pierson(a)irit.fr Research papers should not exceed 10 pages in length. They should be formatted using the camera-ready templates of Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science (http://www.springer.de/ comp/lncs/authors.html). At least one author will be required to register for the workshop and present the work. The proceedings of the 1st workshop in 2005 was published by LNCS, and a selection of the best papers of the 2nd edition in 2006 are published by the Journal 'Concurrency and Communication: Practices and Experiences'. We plan to publish on the same way the papers in 2007 (agreements pending).

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] Last Call - ECAL2007 - Workshop - Machine Epigenesis 2007 Datum: Thu, 29 Mar 2007 09:41:31 -0700 Von: William R. Buckley <wrb(a)wrbuckley.com> Antwort an: <wrb(a)wrbuckley.com> Organisation: "OptimaNumerics" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.optimanumerics.com> [[[[ LAST CALL FOR PAPERS ]]]] ECAL 2007 Workshop on Machine Epigenesis Lisbon, Portugal September 10, 2007 [[Motivation]] Creating a machine that exhibits life-like behavior has been the very core motivation of Artificial Life since its onset. Self-replication has remained the prime study since von Neumann, however, biological systems show a far wider range of generative hehavior, including differentiation and morphogenesis of multicellular structures from a single zygote, and adaptive de-differentiation and regeneration of parts in case of system failure. These characters remain largely missing in manmade, engineered systems, as well indicated by the late John Maynard-Smith in his writing: "One reason why we find it so hard to understand the development of form may be that we do not make machines that develop: often we understand biological phenomena only when we have invented machines with similar properties... [and] we do not make 'embryo' machines ..." - John Maynard-Smith, The Problems of Biology (1986) [[Workshop]] The Workshop on Machine Epigenesis aims to address this issue -- the means, methods and models of machine epigenesis. It is expected to establish a field of research on any constructional and epigenetic processes of machines and to initiate a collective effort of formalization of models of such epigenetic machines. Here a "machine" is broadly construed to include abstract automata, electro-mechanical devices, molecular structures, and any other physical or informational instantiation. Topics to be covered in the workshop include (but are not limited to): - Formal theories and abstract models of machine epigenesis - Theories of universal and non-universal constructors - Physical implementation of epigenetic machines - Self-replicating and self-repairing machines - Self-organization in modular and swarm robots - Biological analogs relevant to the realization of machine epigenesis - Philosophical and ethical issues in creating epigenetic machines - Extending the mechanist model of living systems - philosophy [[Format]] The workshop will be organized to provide an open opportunity for participation by any person engaged in relevant research, or who may have relevant opinion, all presented within the framework of an open forum discussion. During the discussion each submitted paper will be briefly presented in an informal setting (typically in 5~10 minutes) and then examined and debated. While the debate will take place between those researchers who submit papers, audience participation will be facilitated, primarily through comments and questions. [[paper Submission]] Readers are invited to submit a paper on original research or discussion on any aspect of machine epigenesis. Papers should be formatted following the guidelines for the ECAL 2007 proceedings (http://www.ecal2007.org/submissions.htm). Papers should not exceed 10 pages in length and must be made in PDF format. Papers should be submitted electronically by email addressed to both the program chairs. Submitted papers will be reviewed and judged by the Programme Committee members based on their relevance to the workshop and conference, originality, clarity of the presentation, and overall quality. [[Important Dates]] Paper submission deadline: April 9, 2007 Notification of acceptance: May 14, 2007 Camera-ready submissions: May 31, 2007 [[Proceedings]] Accepted papers will be included in the Workshop Proceedings CD-ROM that will be distributed to all ECAL 2007 attendees. It is also expected that workshop participants shall have the opportunity to publish a paper in a special issue of the International Journal of Unconventional Computing. Confirmation from the journal is pending. [[Program Chairs]] William R.

This year's feature: Visualization of Non-Trivial Data Structures With the advancement of numerical simulations beyond uniform grids, visualization methods are also challenged to cope with the more complex data structures. We intend to discuss which data structures are out there (e.g., amr, multiblock, multipatches), what visualization methods already exist, and what the highest demands and needs for yet unsolved issues are. Focus is intended to be on topological issues of complex data sets, leading to possible overlap among feature extraction, numerical algorithms and access methods to topologically non-trivial data itself. This workshop is inter-disciplinary by nature, and as every year we also encourage contributions that are outside the focus topic. TOPICS OF INTEREST * Visualization concepts for non-trivial spacetimes * Generic data structures for visualization purposes * Applicability of GPU's, emerging hardware like cell processors or physics cards * Application areas, in particular interdisciplinary work with domain experts * Numerical models on adaptive meshes or multiblocks and resulting specific demands for visualization * Existing visualization frameworks (e.g., VTK, Amira, Chombovis) and their support for such data * Extending commonly used visualization techniques such as isosurfaces and raycasting to cover complex data structures * Demands and constraints on parallel rendering strategies and grid-based environments from non-regular domain decomposition, including (but not limited to) workflow managements, brokering, performance-modeling etc. * Utilizing modern rendering, display and interaction device, e.g. high-resolution, high-dynamic range, multitiled screens, for examining complex data structures * Grid technologies and parallelization techniques ** IMPORTANT DATES ** Abstracts due March 29 Full paper due April 16 Notification of acceptance April 30 Camera-ready version due May 7 Workshop June 16th - 22nd 2007 ** SUBMISSION AND PROCEEDINGS ** Accepted papers will be appear in an A5 booklet published by LOB (Lehmanns Online Bookshop - www.lob.de), who will also take care of online distribution and on-demand printing of future issues.
