AIMS & SCOPE
Building on the success of the nine previous editions (1998-2007), a
special track on coordination models, languages and applications will be
held at SAC 2008. Over the last decade, we have witnessed the emergence
of models, formalisms and mechanisms to describe concurrent and
distributed computations and systems based on the concept of
coordination. The purpose of a coordination model is to enable the
integration of a number of, possibly heterogeneous, components
(processes, objects, agents) in such a way that the resulting ensemble
can execute as a whole, forming a software system with desired
characteristics and functionalities which possibly takes advantage of
parallel and distributed systems. The coordination paradigm is closely
related to other contemporary software engineering approaches such as
multi-agent systems, service-oriented architectures, component-based
systems and related middleware platforms. Furthermore, the concept of
coordination exists in many other Computer Science areas such as
workflow systems, cooperative information systems, distributed
artificial intelligence, and internet technologies.
After more than a decade of research, the coordination paradigm is
gaining increased momentum in state-of-the-art engineering paradigms
such as multi-agent systems and service-oriented architectures: in the
first case, coordination abstractions are perceived as essential to
design and support the working activities of agent societies; in the
latter case, service coordination, orchestration, and choreography are
going to be essential aspects of the next generations of systems based
on Web services.
The Special Track on Coordination Models, Languages and Applications
takes a deliberately a broad view of what constitutes coordination.
Accordingly, major topics of interest this year will include:
- Novel models, languages, programming and implementation techniques
- Applications of coordination technologies
- Industrial points of view: experiences, applications, open issues
- Internet- and Web-based coordinated systems
- Coordination of multi-agent systems, including mobile agents,
intelligent agents, and agent-based simulations
- Coordination in Service-oriented architectures and Web Services
- Languages for service description and composition
- Models, frameworks and tools for Group Decision Making
- Modern Workflow Management Systems and Case-Handling
- Coordination in Computer Supported Cooperative Work
- Software architectures and software engineering techniques
- Configuration and Architecture Description Languages
- Coordination Middleware and Infrastructures
- Coordination in GRID systems
- Emergent Coordination: Swam based, Stigmergy
- Coordination technologies, systems and infrastructures
- Relationship with other computational models such as object oriented,
declarative (functional, logic, constraint), programming or their
extensions with coordination capabilities
- Formal aspects (semantics, reasoning, verification)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
PROCEEDINGS AND POST-PROCEEDINGS
Papers accepted for the Special Track on Coordination Models, Languages
and Applications will be published by ACM both in the SAC 2008
proceedings and in the Digital Library.
Selected papers will be published in a Journal's special issue.

Recent advances in electronic and computer technologies
have paved the way for the proliferation of ubiquitous
computing. The combination of mobile and ubiquitous
computing is emerging as a promising new paradigm with
the goal to provide computing and communication
services all the time, everywhere, transparently and
invisibly to the user, using devices embedded in the
surrounding physical environment. In this context, the
communication devices, the objects with which they
interact, or both may be mobile. The implementation of
such a paradigm requires advances in wireless network
technologies and devices, development of infrastructures
supporting cognitive environments, and discovery and
identification of ubiquitous computing applications and
services.
We are seeking research papers, technical reports,
dissertation etc for these interdisciplinary areas. The
goal of the UBICC journal is to publish the most recent
results in the development of system aspects of ubiquitous
computing. Researchers and practitioners working in this
area are expected to take this opportunity to discuss and
express their views on the current trends, challenges, and
state of the art solutions addressing various issues in
this area.

Integration von Produkten und Dienstleistungen - Hybride Wertschöpfung
Teilkonferenz der Multikonferenz Wirtschaftsinformatik 2008 (MKWI?08)
München, 26.-28. Februar 2008
Einreichungsfrist für Beiträge:
30. September 2007
Details unter: <http://srvmatthes6.in.tum.de/hybride_wertschoepfung.html>
Der industrielle Wettbewerb steht im Zeichen eines Paradigmenwechsels. Immer stärker verwischen gegenwärtig die Grenzen zwischen Sach- und Dienstleistungen. Gewinnmargen liegen bei Produktherstellern immer weniger im materiellen Produkt als bei dazugehörigen Dienstleistungen. Dienstleistungsunternehmen stehen ebenfalls in zunehmendem Wettbewerb. Als Reaktion hierauf werden materielle Produkte, Software und Dienstleistungen immer stärker miteinander verwoben angeboten. Charakteristisch für solche hybriden Lösungen ist dabei die intelligente Verzahnung zwischen materiellem Produkt, Software und Dienstleistung, die hierfür bereits bei der Konzeption und Entwicklung eng miteinander verbunden werden und deren Komponenten nur noch schwer voneinander entkoppelt werden können.
Der aktuelle Stand der Produkt-, Software- und Dienstleistungsforschung verdeutlicht jedoch im Bereich hybrider Lösungen sowohl eine Empirie- als auch eine Modelllücke. Es fehlen empirische Grundlagen der hybriden Wertschöpfung insgesamt sowie adäquate, fundierte Methoden, Modelle und Werkzeuge zu Gestaltung, Erbringung, Vermarktung und zum Life Cycle Management kombinierter Produkt- und Dienstleistungsbündel.
Das Ziel dieser Teilkonferenz ist es, einen fundierten Überblick über den State-of-the-Art bei der Produkt-Dienstleistungskombination zu geben. Dabei sollen Probleme und Grenzen ebenso angesprochen werden wie Potenziale sowie neue Vorgehensmodelle.
Beiträge aus Forschung und Praxis sind u. a. zu folgenden Themenfeldern erwünscht:
* Theoretische und empirische Grundlagen hybrider Wertschöpfung
* Methoden, (Referenz-)Modelle und Werkzeuge für hybride Wertschöpfung
* Ökonomische Bedeutung hybrider Lösungen
* Strategien für hybride Wertschöpfung
* Leistungen und Architekturen hybrider Wertschöpfung
* Hybride Wertschöpfungsnetze, Wertschöpfungssysteme
* Technische und organisatorische Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten hybrider Lösungen
* Erfolgs- und Misserfolgsfaktoren von Produkt-Dienstleistungsbündeln
* Anwenderakzeptanz hybrider Lösungen für unterschiedliche Branchen und Lösungen
* Vorgehensmodelle für hybride Wertschöpfung
* Die Rolle von Standardisierung für hybride Wertschöpfung

**************** Overview ****************
Almost everyone nowadays access the Internet, whether it be for
communication, work, business, leisure, entertainment, or simply
curiosity. Web applications open a new era having the
characteristics, which were not exist in the traditional, non web-
based computer systems. The large number of users, the enormous
amount of information on the web, and the complexity of the
applications require complex and specific treatments to deal with the
methodology and techniques for information sharing, modelling, and
system implementation through the Internet. Correspondingly, web
information systems feature in three dimensions: the user dimension,
the content dimension, and the system dimension, each of which
reflect the three main components of human-web interactions.
**************** Mission ****************
The International Journal of Web Information Systems (IJWIS) is a
premium journal, which publishes high quality papers and disseminates
knowledge on an international basis in the wide and challenging areas
of web information systems. It serves as an excellent channel for
communicating and exchanging ideas among researchers, academics, and
practitioners who work, teach, study, and research in web technology
and systems. The journal is devoted to the publications of
outstanding papers on theoretical developments and practical
applications in web information systems. Original research papers,
state-of-the-art reviews, case studies, practical experiences and
technical notes are invited for publications. It is an essential
reading for those needing to keep up-to-date of the issues and
practices in web information systems.
**************** Coverage ****************
While IJWIS covers a broad range of topics, we are soliciting papers
that provide a perspective on all aspects of the Web information
systems: Web semantics and Web dynamics, Web mining and searching,
Web databases and Web data integration, Web-based commerce and e-
business, Web collaboration and distributed computing, Internet
computing and networks, Performance of Web applications, and Web
multimedia services and Web-based education. Topics of particular
interest for this issue are, but not limited to, the list below:
• Metadata and Ontologies
• Web semantics architectures, applications and standards
• Language and representation issues of Web semantics
• Migrating existing information
• Web mining
• Web search and information extraction
• Web structure/linkage mining
• Applications of Web mining and searching
