Sinz <elmar.sinz(a)uni-bamberg.de> An: <wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de>, <wkwi(a)seda.wiai.uni-bamberg.de> Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, hiermit möchte ich Sie nochmals auf den Call for Papers für Track 16 (Beschreibung siehe unten) der 9. Internationalen Tagung Wirtschaftsinformatik aufmerksam machen. Die WI 2009 wird vom 25.-27. Februar 2009 in Wien auf Einladung der Kollegen Hansen und Karagiannis stattfinden. Das Track-Leitungsgremium würde sich freuen, wenn Sie oder Ihre Arbeitsgruppe einen Beitrag einreichen würde. Einreichungsschluss ist der 31. Juli 2008. Nähere Informationen finden Sie unter http://www.wi2009.de/ http://www.wi2009.de/track16.html Mit den besten Grüßen Elmar Sinz ================================================================= Datenmodelle für Business Services Die Datenmodellierung stellt seit Jahrzehnten eines der zentralen methodischen Hilfsmittel der Systementwicklung dar. Im Kontext von serviceorientierten Unternehmensarchitekturen werden Datenmodelle auf der Businessebene insbesondere zur konzeptuellen Modellierung von Geschäftsdomänen und betrieblichen Leistungen eingesetzt, auf IT-Ebene zur Spezifikation der Datensichten von Services im Rahmen von serviceorientierten Architekturen (SOA). Im Gegensatz zu den unternehmensweiten Datenschemata früherer Jahre kommt bei SOA insbesondere Fragen der Modularisierung, der (semantischen) Kopplung, der Wiederverwendung und der Skalierung von Datenschemata eine besondere Bedeutung zu. Zudem stellen datenintensive Services neue technologische Anforderungen an die (verteilte) Datenhaltung. Für den Track werden Beiträge zu aktuellen methodischen und technologischen Fragen der Datenmodellierung und Datenhaltung von Business Services erbeten. Mögliche Themen sind: - Entwurf von (verteilten) Datenschemata für Business Services - Konzeptuelle Datenmodelle und fortgeschrittene Datenbankmodelle für Business Services (z.B. objektorientiert, objektrelational oder semistrukturiert) - Kontextbezogene Datentypen für Business Service Schemata (z.B. User, Profile, VCard) - Behandlung unstrukturierter Daten - Semantische Konzepte für die Modellierung von Datenschemata - Modellierung von Nachrichten und Service-Schnittstellen - Datenmanagement datenintensiver Business Services - Nutzungsformen und Qualität datenintensiver Business Services Leitungsgremium: Prof. Dr. Thomas Myrach, Universität Bern Prof. Dr. Elmar Sinz, Otto-Friedrich-Universität Bamberg (Federführender) Prof. Dr. Gottfried Vossen, Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster Kontakt: track16(a)wi2009.at ------------------------------------------------ Univ.-Prof. Dr. Elmar J.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CfP: The First International Symposium on Services Science (ISSS 2009) Datum: Wed, 16 Jul 2008 11:48:21 +0200 Von: Volker Schmelich <Schmelich(a)wifa.uni-leipzig.de> Antwort an: Volker Schmelich <Schmelich(a)wifa.uni-leipzig.de> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> Dear colleagues, Apologies if you receive this more than once. We would like to draw your attention to our call for papers for the International Symposium on Services Science, which will take place in Leipzig, Germany (Leipzig University) between March 23rd and 25th, 2009. The CfP is attached below. Please feel free to forward this e-mail to interested colleagues. If questions regarding the submission deadline or potential topics please contact isss(a)sabre-conference.com. Best regards, Volker Schmelich --- The First International Symposium on Services Science (ISSS 2009), Leipzig, Germany, 23rd - 25th March 2009 Hosted by * University of Leipzig, Department of Computer Science and Information Systems Institute, * Institute of Applied Informatics (InfAI) e.V. * Leipziger Informatik-Verbund (LIV) With a keynote by Martin Jetter, Chairman IBM Germany Important Dates --------------- * Submission of symposium papers 15 Oct 2008 * Author Notification 30 Nov 2008 * Publication-ready version 31 Dec 2008 Symposium dates * Mon, March 23, 2009 until Wed, March 25, 2009 Services Science has emerged as a new research discipline that receives growing attention both in academia and practice. It combines research from various disciplines which have evolved more or less separately. While theories from organizational and marketing science usually capture the nature of these products, engineering disciplines focus on shaping and developing these information goods, and the information systems field on integrating services which are perceived as encapsulated application functionalities with standardized (XML) interfaces. These research streams converge in the new interdisciplinary area of Services Science which integrates the principles, design, and management of economic and technical services. The "First International Symposium on Services Science" will take place in Leipzig between March 23rd and 25th, 2009 as a part of the Multi-Conference SABRE - Software, Agents and Services for Business, Research and E-Sciences. The goals of the symposium are to present the current state of the art in research and industry regarding the Services Science, to establish a platform for the exchange of interested experts from various disciplines. The symposium welcomes both scientific contribution and best practices from practitioners. The program will be completed by keynotes. The organizing committee aims at balancing theory and practice. Leipzig University is located at the heart of Germany and will celebrate its 600 years anniversary in 2009. TOPICS ====== The topics of the ISSS 2009 include but are not limited to: - Services design & engineering - Services modeling & simulation - Industrialization und standardization of services - Configuration and evaluation of business services - Services systems and service components - Services platforms for orchestrating and maintaining services - Basic services technologies and architectures - Customer Integration in Service Design, Delivery and Operation - Services innovation & management (key success factors, service types e.g. systems integration, professional services, self services) - Services marketing (e.g. brand building) - Service business models (e.g. Services pricing, revenue strategies and organization) and their evolution - Services governance and organizational transformation - Management and customizing/localization of services - Services operation and service offshoring - Risk Management for services - Legal aspects of services (assets, intellectual property building, property rights, branding) - Service excellence and service productivity - Service export and internationalization of services - Other services related topics ISSS 2009 seeks two types of contributions: * Full research papers (english) 10 pages, * Industrial experience papers (english) 6 pages All submitted papers will undergo a rigorous double blind peer review process.

[Fwd: [computational.science] CfP: International Grid Interoperability and Interoperation Workshop2008 (IGIIW2008) @ e-science 2008]
by Gustaf Neumann 16 Jul '08

16 Jul '08

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] CfP: International Grid Interoperability and Interoperation Workshop2008 (IGIIW2008) @ e-science 2008 Datum: Tue, 15 Jul 2008 13:56:45 +0200 Von: Achim Streit <a.streit(a)fz-juelich.de> Organisation: "OptimaNumerics" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.optimanumerics.com> ############## Call for Paper ############## International Grid Interoperability and Interoperation Workshop 2008 (IGIIW 2008) in conjunction with 4th IEEE International Conference on e-Science (e-Science 2008) December 7-12, Indianapolis, Indiana, USA Organizer: Morris Riedel (co-chair of OGF Grid Interoperation Now Community Group) Description Significant international and broader interdisciplinary research is increasingly carried out by global collaborations that use next generation infrastructures such as Grids as a base to enable enhanced science (e-science). Many e-science applications take advantage of these infrastructures to simulate phenomena related to a specific scientific or engineering domain on advanced (parallel) computer architectures. In addition, more and more commercial players adopt the concepts of next generation infrastructures to enable new kinds of economic applications and flexible resource usage models. More recently, increasing complexity of e-science applications that embrace multiple physical models (i.e. multi-physics) and consider a larger range of scales (i.e. multi-scale) is creating a steadily growing demand of compute power and storage capabilities. This leads to the demand of world-wide interoperable infrastructures that allow for new innovative types of e-science by using, for example, high throughput computing (HTC) infrastructures and high performance computing (HPC) resources together for complex e-science application workflows. Thus the only option left to satisfy increasing e-science application demands is to harness a united federation of world-wide Grids, which provides access to different kinds of resources and services. Scope The workshop will discuss the interoperability and interoperation aspects of current Grid and Web technologies, production Grids in general, and the interoperability through emerging open standards and well designed interfaces in particular. In the context of this workshop, the difference between interoperability and interoperation is as follows: Interoperation is specifically defined as what needs to be done to get production Grids (e.g. DEISA, EGEE, TeraGrid) to work together as a fast short-term achievement using as much existing technologies as available today. Hence, this is not the perfect solution and different than interoperability that is defined as the native ability of Grids and Grid middleware (UNICORE, gLite, Globus Toolkit, and others) to interact directly via well defined interfaces and common open standards. This will enable cross-Grid use cases and applications from a growing range of domains in industry and science, taking also recent technologies such as Clouds or Web 2.0 into account. The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners working in the area of interoperability and interoperation within distributed environments such as Grids or Clouds, to exchange and share their experiences, new ideas, and latest research results as well as open problems. Enough time for intensive discussions will be provided and outcomes of the workshop will be summarized in the session. Topics of Interest Topics of interest for the workshop include, but are not limited to: # Cross-Grid scientific and business applications # Grid system components that enable interoperability/interoperation # Boundaries and open problems related to interoperability/interoperation # Scientific/business scenarios for Grid interoperability/interoperation # Security challenges and solutions for interoperability/interoperation of Grids # Cross-Grid brokering and workflows, semantics and languages # Management of interoperable/interoperating Grids # Visualizations that cover applications of more than one Grid environment # Grid middleware interoperability/interoperation # Roadmaps of Grid technologies that enhance interoperability/interoperation # Performance evaluation of interoperable/interoperating Grid components # Reliability, fault-tolerance, and autonomy in Grid interoperability/interoperation # Experiences with Grid information interoperability (XML, RDF, etc.) # Cross-Grid requirements and challenges # Interoperability of digital repositories and data storage technologies in Grids/Clouds # Challenges and solutions in interoperability between Clouds and Grids Proceedings Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings. More information can be found at http://escience2008.iu.edu/participation/papers.shtml Paper submissions Authors are invited to submit manuscripts reporting original, unpublished research and recent developments/theoretical considerations in the topics related to the workshop.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] Last CfP: 1st International Conference on Software Language Engineering (SLE 2008) Datum: Mon, 14 Jul 2008 16:02:27 -0600 Von: Dragan Gasevic <dgasevic(a)acm.org> Antwort an: Dragan Gasevic <dgasevic(a)acm.org> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> ___________________________________________________________________ 2nd Call for Papers - SLE 2008 1st International Conference on Software Language Engineering http://planet-sl.org/sle2008/ Toulouse, France, September 29-30, 2008 ___________________________________________________________________ Co-located with 11th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Model-Driven Engineering Languages and Systems (MODELS 2008) Conference proceedings will be published in Springer's LNCS series. The 1st International Conference on Software Language Engineering (SLE) is devoted to topics related to artificial languages in software engineering. SLE is an international research forum that aims to bring together researchers and practitioners from both industry and academia to expand the frontiers of software language engineering. Historically, SLE emerged from two established workshop series: LDTA, Language Descriptions, Tools, and Applications, which has been a satellite event at ETAPS for the last 8 years, and ATEM which has been co-located with MODELS and WCRE for the last 5 years. These, as well as several other conferences and workshops, have investigated various aspects of language design, implementation, and evolution but from different perspectives. SLE's foremost mission is to encourage and organize communication between communities that have traditionally looked at software languages from different, more specialized, and yet complementary perspectives. SLE emphasizes the fundamental notion of languages as opposed to any realization in specific "technical spaces". Scope ----- The term "software language" comprises all sorts of artificial languages used in software development including general purpose programming languages, domain-specific languages, modeling and metamodeling languages, data models, and ontologies. We use this term in its broadest sense. Thus, for example, modeling languages include UML and UML-based languages, synchronous languages used in safety critical applications, business process modeling languages, and web application modeling languages, to name a few. Perhaps less obviously, the term "software language" also comprises APIs and collections of design patterns that are indeed implicitly defined languages. Software language engineering is the application of a systematic, disciplined, quantifiable approach to the development, use, and maintenance of these languages. Thus, the SLE conference is concerned with all phases of the lifecycle of software languages; these include the design, implementation, documentation, testing, deployment, evolution, recovery, and retirement of languages. Of special interest are tools, techniques, methods and formalisms that support these activities. In particular, tools are often based on or even automatically generated from a formal description of the language. Hence, of special interest is the treatment of language descriptions as software artifacts, akin to programs - while paying attention to the special status of language descriptions, subject to tailored engineering principles and methods for modularization, refactoring, refinement, composition, versioning, co-evolution, and analysis. Topics of interest ------------------ We solicit high-quality contributions in the area of SLE ranging from theoretical and conceptual contributions to tools, techniques and frameworks that support the aforementioned lifecycle activities. Some examples of tools, techniques, applications, and problems are listed below in order to clarify the types of contributions sought by SLE. * Formalisms used in designing and specifying languages and tools that analyze such language descriptions: For example, of interest are formalisms such as grammars, schemas, ontologies, and metamodels; innovative tools that detect inconsistencies in a metamodel or analyze grammars in building a parser; and formal logics and proof assistants that verify properties of language specifications. * Language implementation techniques: This includes advances in traditional compiler generator tools such as parser/scanner generators, attribute grammar systems, term-rewriting systems, functional-programming-based combinator libraries, among many others; also of interest are metamodel-based and ontology tools such as constraint, rule, view, transformation, and query formalisms and engines. * Program and model transformation tools: Examples include tools that support program refinement and refactoring, model-based development, aspect and model weaving, model extraction, metamodeling, model transformations, round-trip engineering, and runtime system transformation. * Composition, integration, and mapping tools for managing different aspects of software languages or different manifestations of a given language: For example, SLE is interested in tools for mapping between the concrete and abstract syntax of a language, for managing textual and graphical concrete syntax for the same or closely related languages; also, mapping descriptions and tools for XML/object/relational mappings. * Language evolution: Included are extensible languages and type systems and their supporting tools, as well as language conversion tools. APIs, when considered as languages, are subject to evolution; thus tools and techniques that assist developers in using a new version of an API or a competing implementation in a program are also of interest. * Approaches to the elicitation, specification, and verification of requirements for software languages: Examples include the use of requirements engineering techniques in the development of domain-specific languages and the application of logic-based formalisms for verifying language requirements. * Language development frameworks, methodologies, techniques, best practices, and tools for the broader language lifecycle covering phases such as analysis, testing, and documentation. For example, frameworks for advanced type or error checking systems, constraint mechanisms, tools for metrics measurement and language usage analysis, documentation generators, visualization backends, knowledge and process management approaches, as well as IDE support for many of these activities are of interest. * Design challenges in SLE: Example challenges include finding a balance between specificity and generality in designing domain-specific languages, between strong static typing and weaker yet more flexible type systems, or between deep and shallow embedding approaches, as, for example, in the context of adding type-safe XML and database programming support to general-purpose programming languages. * Applications of languages including innovative domain-specific languages or "little" languages: Examples include policy languages for security or service oriented architectures, web-engineering with schema-based generators or ontology-based annotations. Of specific interest are the engineering aspects of domain-specific language support in all of these cases. Do note that this list is not exclusive and many examples of tools, techniques, approaches have not been listed. The program committee chairs encourage potential contributors to contact them with questions about the scope and topics of interest of SLE. Paper Submission ---------------- We solicit the following types of papers: * Research papers. These should report a substantial research contribution to SLE and/or successful application of SLE techniques. Full paper submissions must not exceed 20 pages. * Short papers. These may describe interesting or thought-provoking concepts that are not yet fully developed or evaluated, make an initial contribution to challenging research issues in SLE, or discuss and analyze controversial issues in the field. These papers must not exceed 10 pages. * Tool demonstration papers. Because of SLE's ample interest in tools, we seek papers that present software tools related to the field of SLE. These papers will accompany a tool demonstration to be given at the conference. These papers must not exceed 10 pages. The selection criteria include the originality of the tool, its innovative aspects, the relevance of the tool to SLE, and the maturity of the tool. Submissions may also include an appendix (that will not be published) containing additional screen-shots and discussion of the proposed demonstration. * Panel proposals. Panels that discuss controversial and challenging issues in the area of SLE, perhaps based on looking at SLE related problems from the different perspectives of different communities are also sought. The panels should have at least three panelists and a moderator, and the proposal must not exceed three pages. One panel is planned for the end of each of the two days of the conference program. The panel moderators will be invited to contribute a summary of the panel discussion compiling different positions presented on the panel to the final proceedings. Submitted articles must not have been previously published or currently be submitted for publication elsewhere. All submitted papers will be closely reviewed by at least three members of the program committee. All accepted papers will be made available at the conference in the pre-proceedings and published in the post-proceedings of the conference, which will appear in Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. Authors will have the opportunity to revise their accepted paper for the pre and post-proceedings. All papers must be formatted by following Springer's LNCS style and will be submitted using EasyChair: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sle2008.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] Call for Papers: Workshop on the Analysis of System Logs (WASL) 2008 Datum: Mon, 14 Jul 2008 16:26:20 -0700 Von: Greg Bronevetsky <bronevetsky1(a)llnl.gov> Organisation: "OptimaNumerics" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.optimanumerics.com> Workshop on the Analysis of System Logs (WASL) 2008 Call for Papers =============================== December 7, 2008 San Diego, CA (at OSDI) =============================== FULL PAPER SUBMISSION: Tuesday, September 2, 2008 AUTHOR NOTIFICATION: Friday, September 26, 2008 FINAL PAPERS DUE: Tuesday, OCTOBER 28, 2008 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- System logs contain a wide variety of information about system status and health, including events from various applications, daemons and drivers, as well as sampled information such as resource utilization statistics. As such, these logs represent a rich source of information for the analysis and diagnosis of system problems and prediction of future system events. However, their lack of organization and the general lack of semantic consistency between information from various software and hardware vendors means that most of this information content is wasted. Indeed, today's most popular log analysis technique is to use regular expressions to either detect events of interest or to filter the log so that a human operator can examine it manually. Clearly, this captures only a fraction of the information available in these logs and does not scale to the large systems common in business and supercomputing environments. This workshop will focus on novel techniques for extracting operationally useful information from existing logs and methods to improve the information content of future logs. Topics include but are not limited to: o Reports on publicly available sources of sample log data. o Log anonymization o Log feature detection and extraction o Prediction of malfunction or misuse based on log data o Statistical techniques to characterize log data o Applications of Natural-Language Processing (NLP) to logs o Scalable log compression o Log comparison techniques o Methods to enhance and standardize log semantics o System diagnostic techniques o Log visualization o Analysis of services (problem ticket) logs Papers limited to 8 2-column pages LNCS format, >=10pt font.
