As a consequence the design of these systems is not a trivial process. In order to facilitate WIS specification, WIS design methodologies propose models that describe the specific aspects of these systems. Recent advances in networking technologies made possible the WIS access using different devices (e.g., PDA, Smart Phone, PC, Black Berry, etc.). In addition to the device heterogeneity there is also a heterogeneous audience (e.g., different backgrounds, different goals, etc.) that wants to access the same system. In order to improve the user experience, these systems often need to personalize the content and its presentation based on the current user needs (e.g., user's browsing platform or user preferences). Another aspect that can influence the behavior of a WIS is the context of use (e.g., the geographical position, the temporal information, the weather conditions, etc.). Systems that are able to exploit this kind of information will further improve the application usefulness for its users. Such information is possibly made available by Web services that need to be seamlessly integrated in WIS. As the Web data is very diverse, WIS are seeking efficient and flexible approaches to provide integrated views over heterogeneous data sources. These data sources are usually autonomous (maintained by different organizations), overlapping, frequently changing, and distributed, all these characteristics making the data integration on the Web a very challenging research topic. The increased use of rich-clients applications (e.g., AJAX, OpenLaszlo) poses new demands to WIS design. The design of these applications needs to go beyond the server roundtrip paradigm by considering the new functionality added to clients, an intelligent data-push communication with the server, interactive-rich graphical interfaces, etc. Semantic Web technologies (e.g., RDF(S), OWL, etc.) can help in the representation of the different WIS design models aiming for an improved interoperability. One example of such a model is the user profile which is often described using a CC/PP vocabulary. Semantic Web representation languages prove to be useful also for describing the semantics of data and the semantics of interfaces in order to facilitate the integration of heterogeneous databases and Web services, respectively. The inference mechanisms of the Semantic Web (captured in the semantics of the representation language or in rule-based languages like RuleML and SWRL) can be used for deriving new information or building intelligent services on the Web. Over the last few years, Web services have offered new opportunities to deploy WIS. Web services are independent from specific platforms and computing paradigms and have the capacity to form composed processes, referred to as composite Web services. Web services composition fulfills user requests that require the participation of several component Web services. Several composition languages are now available (e.g., BPEL, WSFL). A research venue that is worth pursuing is the modeling of these composite Web services. Goal of the Workshop -------------------- The aim of the workshop is to provide a platform for bringing together researchers, practitioners, designers, and users of WIS and discuss how specific issues of WIS design can be addressed by means of modeling. Specifically, we will discuss how the influence of Semantic Web technology can help in a model-driven WIS development. Thus, the workshop should enable a fruitful exchange of ideas in the state-of-the-art of WIS modeling. Topics of Interest ------------------ The workshop topics include but are not limited to: * Intelligent WIS * WIS Ubiquity * WIS Personalization * Business Rules in WIS * WIS Architectures * Rich Client WIS * Semistructured Data in WIS * Methodologies for WIS Design * Semantic Web Information Systems * Web 2.0 Information Systems * Data Models in WIS * Web Metadata in WIS * Query Languages in WIS * Integration of WIS * Ontologies in WIS * Optimization Techniques for WIS * Security in WIS * Distributed WIS Paper Submission ---------------- Prospective workshop participants are invited to submit a paper related to one (or more) of the workshop topics. The page limit for workshop papers is 10 pages. Papers should be formatted according to Springer LNCS style http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html. They need to be original and not submitted or accepted for publication in any other workshop, conference, or journal. The organizers will oversee a peer-review process for the submitted papers. Manuscripts not submitted in the LNCS style or having more than 10 pages will not be reviewed and thus automatically rejected. The papers need to be original and not submitted or accepted for publication in any other workshop, conference, or journal. Papers should be submitted to wism2009(a)few.eur.nl in PDF format.

Inf. Sys., Integror.Net An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> --------------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS --------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1st Workshop on Service Discovery and Selection in SOA Ecosystems (SDS-SOA 2009) in conjunction with 12th International Conference on Business Information Systems (BIS 2009) Poznan, Poland April 27, 28 or 29, 2008 http://bis.kie.ae.poznan.pl/12th_bis/wscfp.php?i=11&ws=sedss2009 =========================================================================== Deadline for submissions: February 1, 2009 =========================================================================== Taking into consideration the development of SOA and growing number of available Web services, it is reasonable to start perceiving services as real goods and not only as programmatic tools that facilitate the integration of IT systems. This perception is a first step to create SOA ecosystems with Web service markets that link requesters and providers, and support them in their transactions. Outsourcing of IT services to external vendors causes dependency and introduces new challenges. In particular, this applies to the quality of outsourced services. If a mission-critical service is sourced out to an external vendor, the provisioning of the required service and its quality is beyond immediate control of the service customer. The success of the companies depends heavily on the ability to discover and select the right service (meaning the best possible in the given market condition and clients' requirements i.e. given context) for the needs of business processes taking into account both functional and non-functional characteristic of a service. This suggests also a need for defining Web service quality models that may assure the requirements of service users and service providers. Providing correct and up-to-date service descriptions that can be matched against fine-grained search requests is essential for automated service discovery and selection, but it is not always feasible. A single service may provide quite broad, frequently changing, functionality. Describing all aspects of such a service may produce large descriptions that quickly become outdated and where frequent re-publishing may be not feasible. On the other hand, the intricacies of service functionality may depend on the customer at hand, the actual request and current business conditions. Moreover, service providers might not want to disclose some of the details of their functionality due to its sensitive character (e.g., pricing policy). In case of dynamic and customer dependent service, aspects like availability, price, delivery time and lead time cannot be statically described. Functionality offered by such services can be non-deterministic and cannot be generalized into static service descriptions which would be detailed enough for matching against fine grained search requests. Dynamic services call for the discovery and service model that would encompass information dynamism. Two possible directions can be pointed out: (1) user data dependence in service description, (2) support for information provisioning by interacting with a service during the discovery process. Strategies and service models utilizing dynamic information in service discovery and selection process should be further investigated. This workshop aims at gathering researchers and practitioners who present their original work in the topics of service interactions in service ecosystems with a special focus on the interactions mentioned above i.e. (dynamic) service discovery and selection. TOPICS OF INTEREST * Service description * Non-functional properties * Models and testing of quality of service * Service dynamic properties and user data dependence * Data structures for the needs of service ecosystems/marketplaces * Service discovery * Service matching * Dynamic discovery of services * Methods of service differentiation * Service selection * Optimal service selection * Context-aware service selection * Business rules-based service selection * Service ecosystems * Business models of service ecosystems * Web services marketplaces * Semantics in service ecosystems SUBMISSION * Long papers: max. 12 pages * Work-in-progress reports: max. 6 pages * Demo papers: max. 4 pages Papers must be submitted in PDF format according to Springer LNBIP template available from http://www.springer.com/east/home/computer/lncs?SGWID=5-164-7-487211-0.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] CFP: Workshop on Cloud Computing @ ICSE Datum: Mon, 15 Dec 2008 13:31:44 +0100 Von: Martin Bichler <martin.bichler(a)in.tum.de> An: wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de Workshop on Software Engineering Challenges of Cloud Computing in conjunction with the 31st International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE) May 23rd, 2009, Vancouver, Canada http://www.icse-cloud09.org Overview: ------------- Cloud Computing has emerged as a new paradigm for deploying, managing and offering services through a shared infrastructure. The projected benefits of cloud computing are very compelling both from a cloud consumer as well as a cloud services provider perspective: ease of deployment of services; low capital expenses and constant operational expenses leading to variable pricing schemes and reduced opportunity costs; leveraging the economies of scale for both services providers and users of the cloud. However, the actual realization of these perceived benefits are far from being well-achieved and pose a broad range of interesting questions. Call for papers: Our goal is to bring together researchers and practitioners to facilitate stimulating discussions on the following three aspects: 1. Programming Models: To avoid the pitfalls of heterogeneous programming paradigms, what are the software engineering challenges that developers face when targeting the cloud as their production environment to offer services? 2. Service Management: How is cloud computing going to address the challenges around soaring service management costs? 3. Cloud Services: What are the new business models for services that could optimally leverage cloud economies of scale? We are soliciting contributions from both academia and practitioners on these three topics. We are encouraging contributions of short vision papers or practical experiences (6 Pages) and full papers (max 14 pages) with high quality research contributions and experimental results. All papers should be in the two-column IEEE format, as required for the ICSE (seehttp://www.cs.uoregon.edu/events/icse2009/calls/format/). Papers must be submitted in PDF format, using the EasyChair website at: https://www.easychair.org/login.cgi?conf=icsecloud09 Important Dates: ---------------------- Submission deadline: 26th Jan 2009 Notification: 9th Feb 2009 Camera Ready: 18th Feb 2009 Workshop: 23rd May 2009 Workshop Organizers: ------------------------------ Kamal Bhattacharya, IBM T.
