-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CFP: ArchiteCloud 2010 at CCGrid 2010 Datum: Mon, 23 Nov 2009 00:37:29 -0500 Von: Vladimir Tosic <vladat(a)computer.org> Antwort an: Vladimir Tosic <vladat(a)computer.org> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> Call for Papers The International Workshop of Software Architecture Principles for and with Cloud Computing (ArchiteCloud 2010) http://www.nicta.com.au/people/tosicv/architecloud2010 In conjunction with the 10th IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Cluster, Cloud and Grid Computing � CCGrid 2010 (http://www.manjrasoft.com/ccgrid2010/mainpage.html) May 17-20, 2010, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia Paper submission deadline: December 20th 2009 Workshop Theme: Empower Cloud Applications with Architectural Principles Cloud computing is an emerging computing paradigm that aims to streamline the on-demand provisioning of software, hardware, and data as services. Deploying applications on a Cloud can help to achieve scalability and maintain a flexible infrastructure at user sites. A variety of challenges arise when deploying and operating applications and services on a Cloud in dynamic and evolving environments. Some examples of such challenges are: how to manage and guarantee service level agreements (SLAs) of services by leveraging Cloud computing capacity; how to integrate collaborative services deployed on-premise and on different Clouds; how to handle exceptions of long-running transactions across loosely coupled services on Clouds; how to deploy business processes and monitor their runtime status, among others. These challenges can be partially faced by applying architectural principles to Cloud application design. Building solutions that either reuse established software architecture principles for Cloud applications or facilitate new architectural principles specific for Cloud computing will provide deep insights not only about how to design Cloud applications, but also how to evaluate the practical usage of Cloud computing technologies. For example, past work on architectures for ultra-large scale systems can be useful for Cloud applications. On the other hand, there is also a significant impact of Cloud computing on software architecture. As the popularity and diversity of Cloud applications grows, some principles for architecting software (and, more generally, IT) systems require re-examination and new architectural principles have to be identified. The aim of this workshop is to encourage academic researchers and industry practitioners to present and discuss all software architecture-related research and experiences in the broad spectrum of Cloud computing. The topics of the workshop include but are not limited to: � Relevance of particular architecture principles and approaches for Cloud computing � Impact of Cloud computing on architecture of software and, more generally, IT systems � Patterns, best practices and experience report in development for Cloud-based applications � Architecture support for enhancing Cloud computing interoperability, including standards and protocols proposal or extension for integrating applications on-premise and different Cloud platforms � Cloud architectures of emerging applications, such as mashup for enterprise services, data intensive computing and scientific workflows � Architecture support for SLA management and negotiation protocols for dynamic Cloud service binding � Architecture accountability of Cloud services, including mechanisms, algorithms and methods for monitoring, analysing and reporting service status and usage profile � Architecture support for trust in/by Cloud services (service as a trustor and/or a trustee) � Capacity planning of services running on the Cloud � Deployment and configuration of Cloud services � Architecture support for dynamic resource management to support computing needs of Cloud services � Cloud architectures for dependability and security � Business analysis and process for designing large scale SOA applications � Evaluation methods for Cloud architectures Important Dates � Submission deadline: December 20th 2009 � Notification of acceptance: January 30th, 2009 � Camera-ready copy: February 15th, 2009 Paper Submission Authors are invited to submit previously unpublished, high-quality papers before the above-noted deadline.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CFP: Future Trends of Model-Driven Development Datum: Sun, 22 Nov 2009 15:31:13 -0500 Von: Slimane Hammoudi <slimane.hammoudi(a)eseo.fr> Antwort an: Slimane Hammoudi <slimane.hammoudi(a)eseo.fr> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> ----Please feel free to distribute it to those who might be interested---- ******************************************************* 2nd International Workshop on Future Trends of Model-Driven Development (FTMDD�10) 8 � 12 June 2010 in conjunction with the 12th International Conference on Enterprise Information Systems (http:// www.iceis.org/) Funchal, Madeira - Portugal Background and Goals ------------------------------ The Model-Driven Architecture (MDA) is an approach to the development of IT systems fostered by the Object Management Group (OMG) that separates the specification of the system functionality from its implementation on a particular platform. A common pattern of MDA development is to define a platform-independent model (PIM) of a system, and to apply (parameterised) transformations to this PIM to obtain one or more platform-specific models (PSMs). In this context, PIMs are reusable models that consolidate the application development effort. Furthermore, MDA advocates the use of OMG core technology, especially the Meta-Object Facility (MOF) and MOF-compliant languages such as UML and CWM. In Model-Driven Development the MDA principles and technologies are applied in the development of software systems. MDD is already around for some years and is about to become commodity in software development due to its benefits (reduction on development costs, improvement of software quality, reduction of maintenance costs and the support for controlled evolution of IT systems). MDD has also been applied in many application areas, such as real-time and embedded systems, and telecommunication systems, and, more recently, to the development and integration of enterprise information systems. However, the MDD research community is wishing to explore the bounds of MDD, by investigating new applications areas and combinations with other emerging technologies, like, for example, pervasive context-aware systems, Semantic web, Semantic web services, SOA and ontologies. This workshop aims at fostering the further development and application of MDD techniques.This is the second edition of this workshop, in which we want to build upon the very successful first edition last year in Milan. Keynote Speaker ---------------------------- A keynote speaker will be invited to address the workshop on future trends on the theory, practise and applications of MDD techniques. Paper submission: ---------------------------- The workshop welcomes three types of submissions: 1- Full papers describing novel ideas on MDD at either a practical or theoretical level. The length of a full paper should not exceed 12 pages (7000 words). 2- Short or position papers describing work in progress or an author�s position regarding the current MDD practice and/or its future trends. The maximum length of a position paper is 5 pages. 3- Demonstrations of a particular prototype approach or tool applicable to MDD. The demonstration should be accompanied by a paper with a maximum length of 4 pages. The demonstration will be shown during the workshop. Instructions for preparing the manuscript are available at the ICEIS web site. Papers should be submitted online through the online submission system. Remarks about the on-line submission procedure: -------------------------------------------------------- 1. A "double-blind" paper evaluation method will be used. To facilitate that, the authors are kindly requested to produce and provide the paper, WITHOUT any reference to any of the authors. This means that is necessary to remove the authors personal details, the acknowledgements section and any reference that may disclose the authors identity. 2. The web submission procedure automatically sends an acknowledgement, by e-mail, to the contact author. All papers will be reviewed on the basis of relevance, clarity and technical quality.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] Last CFP Agent-Directed Simulation, April 12-14, 2010, Orlando, Florida Datum: Fri, 20 Nov 2009 19:46:25 -0600 (CST) Von: Yu Zhang <yzhang(a)CS.Trinity.Edu> An: Yu Zhang <yzhang(a)CS.Trinity.Edu> =============================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS and POSTERS Agent-Directed Simulation Symposium (ADS'10) Orlando, Florida, USA April 12-14, 2010 http://www.site.uottawa.ca/~oren/conf-org/ADS_2010/ADS-CFP.htm Manuscript Submission: November 30, 2009. Sponsored by The Society for Modeling and Simulation International (SCS) in collaboration with ACM/SIGSIM. ============================================================== As part of the 2010 Spring Simulation Multi-conference (SpringSim'10) http://www.scs.org/confernc/springsim/springsim10/springsim10.htm the 2010 Agent-Directed Simulation Symposium is a premier platform to explore all three aspects of the synergy of simulation and agent technologies. Hence, it has a special place within simulation and agent conferences, including agent-based (social) simulation conferences. Therefore the ADS symposium fills a gap in the agent community as well as the simulation community. The purpose of the ADS symposium is to facilitate dissemination of the most recent advancements in the theory, methodology, application, and toolkits of agent-directed simulation. Agent-directed simulation is comprehensive in the integration of agent and simulation technologies, by including models that use agents to develop domain-specific simulations, i.e., agent simulation (this is often referred to as agent-based simulation -when other two important aspects are not considered), and by also including the use of agent technology to develop simulation techniques and toolkits that are subsequently applied, either with or without agents. Hence, agent-directed simulation consists of three distinct, yet related areas that can be grouped under two categories as follows: 1. Simulation for Agents (agent simulation): simulation of agent systems in engineering, human and social dynamics, military applications etc. 2. Agents for Simulation (which has two aspects): agent-supported simulation deals with the use of agents as a support facility to enable computer assistance in problem solving or enhancing cognitive capabilities; and agent-based simulation that focuses on the use of agents for the generation of model behavior in a simulation study. Through the theme of agent-directed simulation, the symposium will bring together agent technologies, tools, toolkits, platforms, languages, methodologies, and applications in a pragmatic manner. In this symposium, established researchers, educators, and students are encouraged to come together and discuss the benefits of agent technology in their use and application for simulation. It is a way for people to discuss why and how they have used agent technology in their simulations, and describe the benefit of having done so. The theme of ADS'10 is based on the observation of the following premises. * The growth of new advanced distributed computing standards along with the rapid rise of e-commerce are providing a new context that acts as a critical driver for the development of next generation systems. These standards revolve around service-oriented technologies, pervasive computing, web-services, Grid, autonomic computing, ambient intelligence etc. The supporting role that intelligent agents play in the development of such systems is becoming pervasive, and simulation plays a critical role in the analysis and design of such systems. * The use of emergent agent technologies at the organization, interaction (e.g., coordination, negotiation, communication) and agent levels (i.e. reasoning, autonomy) are expected to advance the state of the art in various application technologies is difficult. Using agent-supported simulation techniques for testing complex agent systems is up and coming field. * To facilitate bridging the gap between research and application, there is a need for tools, agent programming languages, and methodologies to analyze, design, and implement complex, non-trivial agent-based simulations. Existing agent-based simulation tools are still not mature enough to enable developing agents with varying degrees cognitive and reasoning capabilities. ADS'10 will provide a leading forum to bring together researchers and practitioners from diverse simulation societies within computer science, social sciences, engineering, business, education, human factors, and systems engineering. The involvement of various agent-directed simulation groups will enable the cross-fertilization of ideas and development of new perspectives by fostering novel advanced solutions, as well as enabling technologies for agent-directed simulation AUTHOR GUIDE * Technical papers provide a longer format for presenting experience reports, research results, or descriptions of "work in progress". They are limited to 8 pages. * Short position papers are targeted at raising a question or framing an issue for discussion during the symposium. Position papers are limited to 3 pages. * Poster presentations present an opportunity to present work in progress and receive feedback from colleagues. A one page write-up of the poster presentations will be included in the proceedings. (For all, required font sizes are: min 10 pt for text and min 9 pt for figures or references). Papers should be submitted electronically to http://www.softconf.com/scs/ADS10/ . All papers will be subject to a peer-reviewing process by three program committee members. (Please see the key dates listed below.) FINAL PAPER SUBMISSION GUIDELINES All prospective authors, whose papers are accepted for inclusion in the program, will be invited to submit their position or technical papers to ADS'10. Accepted and registered papers will be published in the conference proceedings by the SCS. In addition, the committee will select a set of best papers. Authors of these papers will be encouraged to submit appropriately expanded versions of these papers for journal publication.

Electronic submission of manuscripts (in PDF or Word format) is required. Detailed instructions for electronic paper preparation and submission, panel proposals, tutorial proposals, and review process can be found at www.servicescongress.org. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register to the conference and present the paper. Only the accepted and presented papers will appear in the CD-ROM version and online version of the proceedings of the IEEE 2010 World Congress on Services (SERVICES 2010) , which will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press. Extended versions of selected best papers published in the SERVICES 2010 will be invited for potential publication in the International Journal of Web Services Research (JWSR), the International Journal of Business Process Integration and Management (IJBPIM), and IEEE Transactions on Services Computing (TSC). JWSR is included in EI Compendex and indexed in SCI-E. According to Thomson Scientific, JWSR is listed in the 2008 Journal Citation Report with an Impact Factor of 1.200. The journal ranks #47 of 99 in the Computer Science, Information Systems and ranks #37 of 86 in Computer Science, Software Engineering. Paper Review Policy IEEE Policy and professional ethics requires that referees treat the contents of papers under review as privileged information not to be disclosed to others before publication. It is expected that no one with access to a paper under review will make any inappropriate use of the special knowledge, which that access provides. Contents of abstracts submitted to conference program committees should be regarded as privileged as well, and handled in the same manner. The Conference Publications Chair shall ensure that referees adhere to this practice. Organizers of IEEE conferences are expected to provide an appropriate forum for the oral presentation and discussion of all accepted papers. An author, in offering a paper for presentation at an IEEE conference, or accepting an invitation to present a paper, is expected to be present at the meeting to deliver the paper. In the event that circumstances unknown at the time of submission of a paper preclude its presentation by an author, the program chair should be informed on time, and appropriate substitute arrangements should be made. In some cases it may help reduce no-shows for the Conference to require advance registration together with the submission of the final manuscript.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] 1st CfP: 1st International Workshop on Empirical Research in Process-oriented Information Systems 2010 Datum: Sat, 21 Nov 2009 17:56:00 -0500 Von: Jan Recker <j.recker(a)qut.edu.au> Antwort an: Jan Recker <j.recker(a)qut.edu.au> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> 1st International Workshop on Empirical Research in Process-oriented Information Systems Official website: http://www.bpm.fit.qut.edu.au/erpois2010/ --------------------------- I. Workshop Theme and Goals --------------------------- Since the advent of business process reengineering in the 1990s, modeling and optimization of business processes has become a critical factor in business as well as in non-profit and government organizations. Today, with many forms of interorganizational cooperation in the form of e-business, outsourcing, and other kinds of value webs, business process management and coordination process management are crucial for the survival of organizations. As a result, information systems are required to manipulate not only data but also processes. Process-oriented information systems (POIS) are systems that can provide data support as well as process support to organizations. Examples are workflow management systems, ERP systems, and systems for cross-organizational coordination management. Some of the challenges facing POIS include requirements management, performance monitoring, service level agreements and governance. The 1st International Workshop on Empirical Research in Process-Oriented Information Systems (ER-POIS 2010) aims to provide a platform for exchanging empirical research results about POIS problems and solutions. The workshop takes an empirical perspective, which means that we will not solicit papers that propose solutions, new techniques or methods, but solicit papers with empirical research results about existing problems or implemented solutions, or about empirical validations of proposed solutions. We assume the solutions have been specified elsewhere, possibly in earlier papers. We encourage the use of any research method, ranging from experimental research to surveys, case studies and action research, provided that a discussion of the validity of the method and of the results obtained with the method is included in the paper. ------------------- II. Workshop Format ------------------- The workshop will comprise presentations of accepted papers and tool reports. Submitted papers will be reviewed by at least three members of the program committee, and will be evaluated on the basis of significance, originality, technical quality, and exposition. Papers should clearly establish their research contribution and shall particularly address the relation to transferring methods and technologies into practice. All accepted papers will appear in the joint electronic CAiSE workshop proceedings (distributed on USB sticks). At least one author for each accepted paper must register for the workshop and present the paper. Please note: Top workshop papers will be published (after extension and enhancement) in a Special Issue of the Journal of Cooperative Information Systems (IJCIS). ----------------------- III. Submitting a Paper ----------------------- Prospective authors are invited to submit papers for presentation in any of the areas listed in the Topics section. Only papers in English will be accepted. Different paper types are distinguished. Length of full papers must not exceed 12 pages (there is no possibility to buy additional pages). Position papers and tool reports should be no longer than 6 pages. Papers should be submitted in the Springer LNCS format. Papers have to present original research contributions not concurrently submitted elsewhere. The title page must contain a short abstract, a classification of the topics covered, preferably using the list of topics above, and an indication of the submission category (full paper | position paper | tool report). Papers should be submitted in PDF format electronically via the EasyChair: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=erpois2010 ---------- IV. Topics ---------- Topics include but are not limited to... - Requirements engineering for POIS - Cost and benefit estimation for POIS - Risk management of POIS - Quantitative and qualitative evaluation methods for POIS - valuation of development methods for POIS - Cross-organizational POIS - POIS implementation - COTS and POIS - User acceptance of POIS - Role of POIS in business-IT alignment - Strategic issue of POIS - Governance of POIS - Enterprise architecture and POIS - Adoption and success of POIS --------------------------------- V.
