[Fwd: 2nd CFP: ACM SAC Special Track on Coordination Models, Languages and Architectures]

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: 2nd CFP: ACM SAC Special Track on Coordination Models, Languages and Architectures Datum: Tue, 24 Jul 2007 15:54:21 +0200 Von: Michael Ignaz Schumacher - CM at ACM SAC08 <michael.schumacher(a)epfl.ch> An: Michael Ignaz Schumacher - CM at ACM SAC08 <michael.schumacher(a)epfl.ch> [Apologies if you receive multiple copies] 2nd CFP: ACM SAC Special Track on Coordination Models, Languages and Architectures ----------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Coordination Models, Languages and Applications Special Track of the 23rd ACM Symposium on Applied Computing (SAC08) March 16 - 20, 2008, Fortaleza, Brazil http://ii.hevs.ch/sac2008 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- IMPORTANT DATES * Submission deadline: 7 September 2007 * Author notification: 15 October 2007 * Camera ready: 30 October 2007 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 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. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- PAPER SUBMISSION Original papers from the above-mentioned or other related areas will be considered. This includes three categories of submissions: 1) original and unpublished research; 2) reports of innovative computing applications in the arts, sciences, engineering, business, government, education and industry; and 3) reports of successful technology transfer to new problem domains. Each submitted paper will be fully refereed and undergo a blind review process by at least three referees. The accepted papers in all categories will be published in the ACM SAC 2008 proceedings. Format: Submit your paper electronically in either PDF or postscript format. Please note: neither hardcopy nor fax submissions will be accepted. Submissions should be printable on a standard printer on common paper formats such as letter and DIN A4. Please use a Postscript previewer such as Ghostview to check the portability of Postscript documents. The author(s) name(s) and address(es) must not appear in the body of the paper, and self reference should be in the third person. This is to facilitate blind review. The body of the paper should not exceed 4,000 words. Accepted full papers should not exceed 5 pages in a double column format (with the option, at additional expense, to add three more pages). Accepted poster papers will be published as extended 2-page abstracts in the symposium proceedings.

While these building blocks are now firmly in place, a number of challenges are still to be met for Web services and GRID nodes to be fully secured and trusted, providing for secure communications between cross-platform and cross-language Web services. Also, the current trend toward representing Web services orchestration and choreography via advanced business process metadata is fostering a further evolution of current security models and languages, whose key issues include setting and managing security policies, inter-organizational (trusted partner) security issues and the implementation of high level business policies in a Web services environment. The SWS workshop explores these challenges, ranging from the advancement and best practices of building block technologies such as XML and Web services security protocols to higher level issues such as advanced metadata, general security policies, trust establishment, risk management, and service assurance. The workshop provides a forum for presenting research results, practical experiences, and innovative ideas in web services security. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: * Web services and GRID computing security * Authentication and authorization * Frameworks for managing, establishing and assessing inter-organizational trust relationships * Web services exploitation of Trusted Computing * Semantics-aware Web service security and Semantic Web Secure orchestration of Web services * Privacy and digital identities support Important Dates * Paper submissions due: August 2nd, 2007 * Acceptance notifications: August 21th, 2007 * Camera-ready papers due: August 30th, 2007 CCS General Chair Peng Ning, NC State University, USA.

VORTE 2007 is the third workshop associated with an EDOC conference that intends to bring together researchers and practitioners in areas such as philosophical ontology, enterprise modelling, information systems, Semantic Web, Model-Driven Architecture (MDA), business rules, and business processes. The goal of the workshop is to discuss the role that foundational and domain ontologies play in the conceptual development and implementation of next generation tools for enterprise computing. Since enterprise vocabularies and ontologies, as well as business rules do not exist in isolation but serve to support business processes, THIS YEAR WE ARE PLANNING TO PUT SPECIAL EMPHASIS ON BUSINESS PROCESS MODELLING AND MANAGEMENT. THEMES AND TOPICS The workshop contributions will be organized along four major thematic areas, under which the following topics of interest will be included, but not limited to: * Conceptual Modelling - Business Vocabularies, Terminologies, and Taxonomies - Ontological Approaches to Content and Knowledge Management - Enterprise Information Integration and Interoperability - Service Taxonomies and Service Registries (for example, UDDI-related research) - Ontological Foundations for Conceptual Modelling - Languages for Conceptual Modelling (for example, OWL and UML) - Agent-Oriented Conceptual Modelling * Business Rules and Business Process Semantics - Semantic Web Services - Service Ontologies (for example, research related to OWL-S) - Business Rule Languages and Components - Rule-based Approaches to Web Service Policies and Choreographies - Ontologies for Business Process Management - Agent-based Business Rule and Process Management - Business Process Modelling and Execution Languages (for example, BPMN and BPML) * Ontologies for Enterprise Computing - Foundational Ontologies and Enterprise Computing - Ontological Evaluation of Enterprise Systems - Ontologies for Interoperability of Enterprise Systems - Ontology-based Enterprise Architectures - Ontology-based Software Engineering for Enterprises - Enterprise Components’ Modelling * Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) approaches to Enterprise Computing - Modelling and Architecture Frameworks - Domain Engineering - Domain-specific Business Information and System Engineering - Transformation between MDA layers SUBMISSION GUIDELINES All submissions will be peer reviewed by at least three members of the program committee. Submissions should be 6 to 8 pages long and MUST use the two-column format of IEEE conference proceedings, which is referenced on the workshop's web site, and include the authors’ name, affiliation, and contact details. Papers must be submitted in the PDF format using EasyChair at http://www.easychair.org/VORTE2007. Authors will be notified about the decision by the program committee by the 11th of August 2007. At least one author of each accepted paper must participate in the workshop. The papers accepted for the EDOC 2007 Workshops will be published after the workshop with its own ISBN in the IEEE Digital Library (pending approval by IEEE), which is accessible by IEEE Xplore. JOURNAL SPECIAL ISSUE A selection of the best papers accepted to the workshop and presented there will be invited to the special issue of Elsevier ISI-indexed Information Systems journal (subject to the second round of peer-review).
