Intelligent computing is generally known to be computationally intensive from the point of view of resources required: time, memory, bandwidth. As this is usually thought to be a drawback, distributed computing is expected to give an impetus to its practical applications. Moreover, intelligent techniques have also proved their usefulness to core distributed computing technologies like: planning & scheduling, load balancing, replication, resource allocation and management, etc. Therefore, the emergent field of intelligent and distributed computing is expected to pose new challenges of adaptation and fruitful combination of both areas. The aim of this symposium is to bring together researchers involved in intelligent and distributed computing to allow cross-fertilization and synergy of ideas and to enable advancement of researches in the field. The symposium welcomes submissions of original papers concerning all aspects of intelligent and distributed computing ranging from concepts and theoretical developments to advanced technologies and innovative applications. Papers acceptance and publication will be judged based on their relevance to the symposium theme, clarity of presentation, originality and accuracy of results and proposed solutions. Topics include, but are not limited to, broadly understood: - Intelligent service composition and orchestration - E-service and Web intelligence - Multi-agent systems - Information extraction and retrieval in distributed environments - Data mining and knowledge discovery in distributed environments - Semantic and knowledge grids - Intelligent integration of data and processes - Distributed problem solving - Ontologies and meta-data for describing heterogeneous resources and services - Autonomic and adaptive distributed computing - Intelligence in mobile and ubiquitous computing - Intelligence in cooperative information systems, groupware and workflows, virtual enterprises, social networks - Intelligent applications in e-business/e-commerce, e-learning, e-health, e-science, e-government - Self-organising and adaptive distributed systems - Intelligence in Peer-to-Peer systems - Emerging behaviours in complex distributed systems - Modelling and simulation of intelligent distributed systems Paper Submission and Publication ================================ All accepted papers will be included in the Symposium Proceedings, which will be published by Springer as part of their series Studies in Computational Intelligence.

[Fwd: CFP: PRO-VE'08, 9th IFIP Working conference on Virtual Enterprises]
by Gustaf Neumann 11 Feb '08

11 Feb '08

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: CFP: PRO-VE'08, 9th IFIP Working conference on Virtual Enterprises Datum: Mon, 11 Feb 2008 14:11:33 +0100 Von: Willy Picard <picard(a)kti.ae.poznan.pl> An: gustaf.neumann(a)wu-wien.ac.at [Our Apologies if you get multiple copies of this message] PRELIMINARY CALL FOR PAPERS PRO-VEâ08 9th IFIP Working Conference on VIRTUAL ENTERPRISES Poznan, POLAND. 8 - 10 September 2008 SCOPE âPervasive Collaborative Networksâ Collaborative Networks (CN) correspond to a very active and steadily growing area. Virtual enterprises / virtual organizations (VE/VO) are already supported by a large research and business practice community. Also, Professional Virtual Communities (PVC) suggest new ways of work and put the emphasis on collaborative networks of human actors. Further to these main lines, other collaborative forms and patterns of collaborative behavior are emerging. This is not only in industry, but also in service sector, as well as governmental and non-governmental social organizations, e.g. the collaborative networks for rescue missions in disaster situations, time bank organizations, virtual labs, grid manufacturing, elderly care, etc. The concept of breeding environment is now understood as a fundamental entity to enable the formation of dynamic collaborative organizations. Recent research and developments emphasize the need for better understanding and characterization of the basic principles and mechanisms for planning and operation of collaborative networks. Building a sounder foundation, namely in terms of proper theoretical principles, ontology, and formal models capturing the concepts, entities, behavior, and operations of the CNs, continues as an important challenge. Understanding and being able to measure the benefits and risks of collaboration is another challenge. New value systems, adequate performance assessment methods and trust establishment approaches are needed in order to support value creation through collaborative networks. PRO-VE, as the most focused scientific / technical conference in the area, offers a major opportunity for the presentation and discussion of both the latest research developments and industrial practice case studies. Following the IFIP vision, PRO-VE offers a forum for collaboration among different regions of the world. This conference continues a series of successful conferences of PRO-VEâ99 (held in Porto, Portugal), PRO-VE 2000 (FlorianÃ³polis, Brazil), PRO-VEâ02 (Sesimbra, Portugal), PRO-VEâ03 (Lugano, Switzerland), PRO-VEâ04 (Toulouse, France), PRO-VEâ05 (Valencia, Spain), PRO-VEâ06 (Helsinki, Finland), and PRO-VEâ07 (GuimarÃ£es, Portugal). Topics - Affective computing in collaborative networks - Ambient intelligence, Virtual Labs - Awareness in collaborative systems - Breeding environments and brokerage - Business ecosystems & emerging collaboration forms - Business models in collaborative systems - Case studies: Manufacturing, Construction, Elderly care, Health Care, Emergency and Disaster Response, Bio-technology, Tourism, NGOs, etc. - Collaboration enabling technologies - Collaborative logistics and transportation systems - Collaborative machines and sensor networks - Dynamic Virtual Organizations - E-Contracting, Contracts management, Legal frameworks and Negotiation in CNs - e-Marketplaces and Communities - e-Services and service markets - Formal models and theories for CNs - ICT infrastructures, Architectures and Design of Collaborative Systems - Innovation and risk management - New value systems and performance measurement; benchmarking - Ontology and knowledge management - Professional Virtual Communities - Reference models and modelling approaches - Social network analysis for CNs - Societal impacts of CNs - Training and education on CNs - Trust modelling and building processes - VO inheritance and data mining The conference will include technical papers and discussion panels. Proposals for organizing associated events, namely by project consortia focused on the area of Collaborative Networks are welcome. Proceedings to be published by Springer. Special issues of journals will be published with selected papers. DEADLINES - Abstracts submission: 21 Jan 08 - Full paper submission: 18 Feb 08 - Acceptance notice: 31 Mar 08 - Camera ready submission: 28 Apr 08 Acceptance of papers is based on the full paper (up to 8 pages). Each paper will be evaluated by three members of the International Program Committee. However, prospective authors should submit a short abstract in advance, in order to check if the proposed topic fits within the conference scope.
