-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] Call For Chapters: Autonomic Communication(Springer) Datum: Sun, 16 Sep 2007 16:46:35 +0300 Von: Thanos Vasilakos <vasilako(a)ath.forthnet.gr> Organisation: "OptimaNumerics" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.optimanumerics.com> Autonomic Communication (Edited Volume: To be published by Springer Science-Business Media, estimated publication summer 2008) Editors: Athanasios V. Vasilakos, University of Western Macedonia, Greece Manish Parashar, Rutgers University, USA Stamatis Karnouskos, SAP Research, Germany Witold Pedrycz, University of Alberta, Canada Introduction: The emerging world is pervasive and strives towards integrating people, technology, environment and knowledge. This emerging vision is moving towards approaches that set the user at the centre of attention, while technology becomes invisible, hidden in the natural surrounding, but still functional, autonomous, self-adaptive, present when needed and interactive. Achieving this vision requires innovative network architectures and services. Communication/networking approaches should become task- and knowledge-driven, enabling a service oriented, requirement and trust driven development of communication networks. The growing complexity of control requires increasingly distributed and self-organizing structures, relying on simple and dependable elements that are able to collaborate to produce sophisticated behaviors and that can adapt to an evolving situation, in which new resources can become available, administrative domains can change and economic models can vary accordingly. The networking and seamless integration of concepts, technologies, devices in a dynamically changing environment sets many challenges to the research community, including interoperability, programmability, management, openness, reliability, performance, context awareness, intelligence, autonomy, security, privacy, safety, semantics, etc. This edited volume explores the challenges in technologies that will help realize the vision where devices and applications seamlessly interconnect, intelligently cooperate and autonomously manage themselves, and as a result, the borders of virtual and real world will vanish or become significantly blurred. Topics of Interest: Specific areas of interest include (but are not limited to) the following: . Autonomic Communication vision . Architectures and models of Autonomic Communication systems . Semantics, languages and programming systems for Autonomic Communication . Network technologies and services for Autonomic Communication . Autonomic Communication for embedded and real-time systems . Interdisciplinary approaches to Autonomic Communication . Security, trust and survivability for Autonomic Communication . Deployments, testbeds and demonstrations of Autonomic Communication . Autonomic Communication approaches in Enterprise Environments Important Dates: Submission deadline: Oct. 31, 2007 Author notification: December 01, 2007 Final manuscript due: March, 01, 2008 Target publication date: Summer, 2008 Submission Guidelines: Prospective authors are invited to submit an electronic version of their manuscript (maximum 30 pages, 12pt font, double spaced) by September 01, 2007. The manuscript should be submitted by email (PDF format preferred) to acbook(a)caip.rutgers.edu.

Behavioral modeling reproduces the social behavior, and allows for experimenting, scenario planning, and deep understanding of behavior, patterns, and potential outcomes. The pervasive use of computer and Internet technologies provides an unprecedented environment of various social activities. Social computing facilitates behavioral modeling in model building, analysis, pattern mining, and prediction. Numerous interdisciplinary and interdependent systems are created and used to represent the various social and physical systems for investigating the interactions between groups, communities, or nation-states. This requires joint efforts to take advantage of the state-of-the-art research from multiple disciplines, social computing, and behavioral modeling in order to document lessons learned and develop novel theories, experiments, and methodologies in terms of social, physical, psychological, and governmental mechanisms. The goal is to enable us to experiment, create, and recreate an operational environment with a better understanding of the contributions from each individual discipline, forging joint interdisciplinary efforts. This workshop is interdisciplinary and provides a platform for researchers, practitioners, and graduate students from sociology, behavioral science, computer science, psychology, cultural study, information systems, operations research to share, exchange, learn, and develop preliminary results, new concepts, ideas, principles, and methodologies, aiming to advance and deepen our understanding of social and behavioral computing and evaluation in help critical decision and policy making. The program will include invited speakers from government, industry, and academia, as well as research presentations and discussions. Papers or abstracts are solicited on research issues, theories, and applications. Topics of interests include, but are not limited to, · Psycho-cultural situation awareness · Group formation and evolution · Cultural patterns and representation · Social conventions and social contexts · Causal, and non-linear relationships · Modeling, projection, and forecasting · Social network analysis and mining · Group interaction and collaboration · Group representation and profiling · Influence process and recognition · Public opinion representation · Search, data, and inference · Simulation methodology · Tools · Metrics and evaluation · Case study · Data collection and benchmarks · Model and analysis complexity * * *Paper Format and Submission* A paper or extended abstract (maximum 8 pages, shorter submissions are also welcome, in single column) should be submitted in PDF.
