[Fwd: [isworld] CFP for 2nd Intl workshop on the Layout of Software Engineering Diagrams, LED 08]
by Gustaf Neumann 23 Apr '08

23 Apr '08

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CFP for 2nd Intl workshop on the Layout of Software Engineering Diagrams, LED 08 Datum: Wed, 23 Apr 2008 17:26:45 +0100 Von: Andrew.Fish(a)bton.ac.uk Antwort an: Andrew.Fish(a)bton.ac.uk An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> ======================================================================== CALL FOR WORKSHOP PAPERS Second International Workshop on LAYOUT OF (SOFTWARE) ENGINEERING DIAGRAMS (LED'08) This workshop is associated with the 2008 IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages and Human-Centric Computing (VL/HCC'08) and co-located with Diagrams'08 and Software Visualisation'08 (SoftVis'08) ======================================================================== Workshop Date: September 15th 2008 Location: Herrsching am Ammersee, Germany LED Homepage: http://www.cmis.brighton.ac.uk/led2008/ VLHCC Homepage: http://vlhcc08.cs.unibw.de/ ======================================================================== IMPORTANT DATES ---------------------------------------------------------------------- * 16 Jun 2008: Initial Submissions * 14 Jul 2008: Notification of Authors * 18 Aug 2008: Camera-ready Papers THEMES AND TOPICS ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Traditionally, diagrams play an important role in many disciplines such as electrical engineering (e.g. Karnaugh-diagrams), civil and mechanical engineering (construction plans), geography (maps), etc. In Software Engineering today, diagrammatic languages like IDEF, UML or ARIS are commonplace, and with the rise of model driven development and domain specific languages, the use of such languages will become even more widespread in the future. All in all, diagrams play an important role in communication between engineers. Given the visual nature of diagrams, it is obvious that the quality of diagram layout greatly contributes to the quality of communication based on these diagrams. However, creating task-adequate layouts is surprisingly hard, and the cognitive factors involved are not very well understood. Furthermore, tool support is rarely satisfactory (e.g. consider the sorry state of automatic layout support in UML tools). We solicit submissions in the following areas. - Layout algorithms, guidelines and patterns - Visual language theory - Quality attributes related to layout - Layout styles and modeling purposes - Surveys of layouts in specific areas - Diagrammatic reasoning - Visualisation constraints, algorithms, and tools - Cognitive aspects of diagram layout - Knowledge representation and diagram layout - Empirical research on layouts Submissions in other, related areas are also welcome. GOALS ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The workshop aims to bring together and consolidate the community, survey the state of the art, and identify current research trends and future challenges. We hope to initiate an ongoing process to advance both the scientific knowledge and the industrial state of the art. TARGETED ATTENDEES ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Practitioners from industry faced with layout-related problems in their work - Researchers working on visualisation, layout and related subjects - Researchers with an interest in cognitive psychology and mental representations - (prospective) PhD students looking for attractive thesis subjects WORKSHOP FORMAT ---------------------------------------------------------------------- LED'08 is intended as a discussion- and interaction-oriented workshop. Paper presentations will be used to provoke discussion. At the end of the day, there will be a plenary session where the results of the workshops and future research directions will be summarised. SUBMISSION AND EVALUATION ---------------------------------------------------------------------- We solicit the submission of position papers (6-8 pages) and full papers (14-16 pages). Position papers are short papers, stating the position of the author(s) on any of the topics within the scope of the workshop. For example, position papers could describe work in progress with a particular tool, algorithm, conceptual approach or visualisation method. Position papers will be evaluated based on their potential for generating discussion, and on the originality of the positions expressed. Full papers may be describing experiences of comparative evaluations, controlled experiments, industrial case studies with visualisation or layout techniques, or report on a substantial implementation effort or theoretical contribution. Also, conceptual papers aiming at classifying approaches and surveying existing work will be of interest. Full papers will be evaluated based on their contribution and impact to the state of the art or the building of the community. All papers must conform to the ECEASST format. All papers must be submitted electronically in the PDF format via the EasyChair submission system. Submitters are kindly asked to indicate the type of submission (position paper or full paper). Every submission will be reviewed by 2-3 different reviewers, one of which will be from an industrial affiliation. SUPPORT AND PUBLICATION ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The workshop will be supported by the German Chapter of the ACM. The workshop proceedings will be published by the ECEASST. Electronic and hard copies will be made available for attendees at the workshop. A selection of the best papers may be invited to submit extended versions for journal publication.

[Fwd: [isworld] CFP: IJBIDM Special Issue on "OLAP Intelligence"]
by Gustaf Neumann 23 Apr '08

23 Apr '08

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CFP: IJBIDM Special Issue on "OLAP Intelligence" Datum: Wed, 23 Apr 2008 06:19:21 -0400 Von: Alfredo Cuzzocrea <cuzzocrea(a)si.deis.unical.it> Antwort an: Alfredo Cuzzocrea <cuzzocrea(a)si.deis.unical.it> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> International Journal of Business Intelligence and Data Mining Special Issue on �OLAP Intelligence: Meaningfully Coupling OLAP and Data Mining Tools and Algorithms� http://si.deis.unical.it/~cuzzocrea/IJBIDM2008/ Aim and Scope ------------- Nowadays, it is widely recognized that OLAP technology provides powerful analysis tools for extracting useful knowledge from large amounts of data stored in different and highly-heterogeneous formats, and very often distributed across networked settings ranging from conventional wired environments to innovative wireless and P2P networks. Several advantages confirm the benefits coming from such an analysis model: (i) the amenity of �naturally� representing real-life data sets that are multi-level, multidimensional, and highly-correlated in nature; (ii) the amenity of analyzing multidimensional data according to a multi-resolution vision; (iii) the rich availability of a wide class of powerful OLAP operators (such as roll-up, drill-down, slice-&-dice etc) and queries (e.g., range-, top-k, iceberg and gradient queries); (iv) the integration of OLAP with more complex analysis tools coming from statistics, time series analysis, and Data Mining. An elegant and successful solution in this line of research consists in coupling OLAP and Data Mining tools and algorithms, which is the basis of the so-called OLAM � OnLine Analytical Mining model, proposed by Jiawei Han in his seminal paper in 1997. Basically, this proposal consists in meaningfully combining the powerful of OLAP with the effectiveness of Data Mining tools and algorithms capable of discovering interesting knowledge from large amounts of data (e.g., the data cell set of a given OLAP data cube) by means of clustering, classification, association rule discovery, frequent item set mining, and so forth. During the last decade, researchers have devoted their attention on the issue of meaningfully coupling OLAP and Data Mining tools and algorithms, leading to the term �OLAP Intelligence�, which can be reasonable considered as one of the emerging research topics of next years in the context of knowledge discovery methodologies. This great interest is essentially due to both exciting theoretical perspectives, such as complexity issues of executing time-consuming Data Mining routines over very large OLAP data cubes, and relevant application issues, which have a great impact in a plethora of real-life scenarios ranging from conventional distributed database management systems and cooperative information systems to innovative data stream management systems and sensor network data analysis tools. Despite these efforts, many aspects need to be further investigated in order to achieve a reliable convergence between OLAP and Data Mining, thus making this technology a reference for next-generation data-intensive analysis tools. Among those, we recall: - Data Warehouse Support for OLAM Architectures - Database Support for OLAM Architectures - Complex Knowledge Representation Models for Data Cubes in OLAM - Complex Knowledge Reasoning Models for Data Cubes in OLAM - OLAP Data Cube Integration - Advanced Clustering Algorithms for Very Large OLAP Data Cubes - Advanced Classification Algorithms for Very Large OLAP Data Cubes - Advanced Association Rule Discovery Algorithms for Very Large OLAP Data Cubes - Advanced Frequent Item Set Mining Algorithms for Very Large OLAP Data Cubes - OLAM over Multiple Data Sources - OLAM over Highly-Heterogeneous Data Sources - OLAM over High-Dimensional Datasets - Multi-Cube Mining Algorithms - Multi-Layer Mining Algorithms for OLAP Data Cubes - Mixture Models in OLAM - OLAM over Imprecise/Incomplete Data Sources - Statistical Tools for Very Large OLAP Data Cubes - Probabilistic Tools for Very Large OLAP Data Cubes - Privacy Preserving OLAP - OLAP Visualization - Intelligent Clustering Methodologies for Large Sets of OLAP Data Cells - Feature Selection for Data Mining Algorithms on OLAP Data Cubes - Data-Mining-Aided OLAP Browsing - Data-Mining-Aided OLAP Exploration - Data-Mining-Aided Interactive Analysis of Very Large OLAP Data Cubes - Machine Learning for OLAP - Ensemble Analysis of Mining Results Extracted From Very Large OLAP Data Cubes - Intelligent Interpretation of OLAM Results - Constraint-based OLAM - Performance Issues for OLAP (e.g., Data Cube Compression Algorithms) - Query Languages for OLAM - Query Evaluation Plans for Complex OLAM Procedures - Integration of SQL with OLAM Procedures - Novel OLAM Paradigms - OLAM in Specialized Context: Web, XML, RDF, Ontology Bases, Data Stream, Sensor Network Data, RFID, Peer-To-Peer, Process-Log Repositories, Workflow Management Systems, E-Commerce, B2B, B2C etc The Special Issue �OLAP Intelligence: Meaningfully Coupling OLAP and Data Mining Tools and Algorithms� of the International Journal of Business Intelligence and Data Mining, InderScience Publishers, will explore these research themes and will be focused on theoretical foundations as well as innovative models, techniques, algorithms and applications of OLAP Intelligence.

Grid Computing started as a generalization of Cluster Computing, promising to deliver large scale levels of parallelism to high-performance applications by crossing administrative boundaries. Moreover, the use of computational and data resources in high-performance applications, undertaken over Grid infrastructure, have started to now become a reality. Today we face the huge challenge of making on-demand access to any computational service. CCGrid 2008 provides researchers and practitioners with an excellent opportunity to share their research and experience at the cross-roads of Cluster and Grid Technology. With expert keynotes, 65 accepted papers, workshops related to Grid and cluster technologies, tutorials, panel, posters, doctoral symposium and Scalable Computing Challenge, CCGrid 2008 will be the perfect and exciting place to exchange and meet academics and industrial from all the world. Advance Registration deadline has been extended to April 28. So register today to benefit for early registration prices !

[Fwd: [isworld] CFP : QoS in Self-healing Web Services]

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CFP : QoS in Self-healing Web Services Datum: Wed, 23 Apr 2008 07:44:16 +0200 Von: Khalil DRIRA <khalil(a)laas.fr> Antwort an: Khalil DRIRA <khalil(a)laas.fr> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> QoS in Self-healing Web Services September 1st, 2008 Milano, Italy http://qsws08.dei.polimi.it in conjunction with BPM 2008 6th International Conference on Business Process Management September 1-4 2008 Milano, Italy http://emma.polimi.it/emma/showEvent.do?page=303&idEvent=22 Background and motivation The development of composite services poses very interesting challenges concerning their Quality of Service (QoS) characteristics. On the one hand, a composite Web Service depends on the QoS properties of its own Web Service suppliers in order to provide a satisfactory service to the user. On the other hand, the main issues for the fulfillment of QoS and service level agreements are concerned with Web service performance variability. Indeed, the QoS of a Web Service may evolve relatively frequently, either because of internal changes or because of workload fluctuations. The performance of the composite Web service may be significantly improved by monitoring the execution of the component Web Services and by flexibly reacting to faults and anomalies in a timely fashion. The concept of self-healing Web Service has been introduced in order to describe services which exhibit such properties. A self-healing Web Service can repair itself if any execution problems occur, in order to successfully complete its own execution, while respecting QoS agreements. In the design of a self-healing WS, several aspects have to be considered. For instance, the service should be able to detect failures as soon as possible and to enact suitable recovery actions. Moreover, different QoS service levels might be considered in order to complete the service execution in case of error, possibly with degraded performance. ********** Call for papers ************ For this workshop, we will consider contributions devoted to Web Services, QoS management, diagnosis and autonomic services. Specifically, the relevant topics include, but are not limited to: * Distributed and centralized solutions for the diagnosis and repair of choreographed and/or orchestrated Web Services * Design for the diagnosability and repairability of Web Services * QoS management in choreographed and/or orchestrated Web Services * Monitoring simple and composite Web Services * Ontologies for QoS * Dynamic reconfiguration of Web Services * Predictive QoS management for Web Services * Autonomic services Workshop format The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners, both from the Academia and from the Industry, working in the areas of Web Service composition, QoS management and diagnosis, who investigate concepts, methods, techniques, and tools to design and manage self-healing Web Services. All contributions will be made available in a Web site before the main conference, so that participants can read them in advance. Morever, a CD including the contributions and pre-proceedings will be distributed at the conference. After the workshop, post-proceedings will be prepared and published in a volume edited by Springer (the post-proceedings will include the papers presented at all the BPM 2008 workshops and reviewed on the basis of the discussion). Moreover, the best paper of each workshop will be invited to a special issue of the "Software Process Improvement and Practice" Journal: best papers will undergo a further peer revision process in order to select the subset to be published in the special issue. Important Dates: o Paper submission deadline: 23 May 2008 o Notification of acceptance: 27 June 2008 o Camera ready: 5 July 2008 o Workshop day: 1 September 2008 o Post-proceeding version of the paper: 23 September 2008 Submission instructions: The following types of submission are solicited: * Long paper submissions, describing substantial contributions of novel ongoing work. Long papers should be at most 12 pages long. * Short paper submissions, describing work in progress. These papers should be at most 6 pages long. * There is no possibility to buy additional pages. All the submissions should be formatted as follows: * The first page should include the title, author's name(s), affiliation, mailing address, e-mail, the abstract of the paper and up to five keywords. * Papers should be submitted in the new Springer LNBIP format: Suitable templates can be retrieved from the LNCS Web site at the following URL: http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-7-487211-0. * Papers should be submitted exclusively as PDF files.
