-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Third CfP] SAC 2010: Special Track on Coordination Models, Languages, and Applications (CM) (Sierre, Switzerland) Datum: Fri, 7 Aug 2009 16:02:17 +0200 Von: Matteo Casadei <m.casadei(a)unibo.it> An: <cm.at.sac(a)gmail.com> Referenzen: <8E1BC6B6-0959-4E2B-8BCC-9B1AC33C0C29(a)unibo.it> *** Apologies for cross-posting *** ===================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS Coordination Models, Languages, and Applications (CM) Special Track at the 25th Symposium on Applied Computing (SAC 2010) Sierre, Switzerland March 22 - 26, 2010 (http://sac2010.apice.unibo.it/) ===================================================================== IMPORTANT DATES Sep. 08, 2009: Paper submissions Oct. 19, 2009: Author notification Nov. 2, 2009: Camera-Ready Copy ===================================================================== For the past twenty-four years, the ACM Symposium on Applied Computing has been a primary gathering forum for applied computer scientists, computer engineers, software engineers, and application developers from around the world. COORDINATION MODELS, LANGUAGES, AND APPLICATIONS TRACK (http://sac2010.apice.unibo.it/) Building on the success of the eleventh previous editions (1998-2009), a special track on coordination models, languages and applications will be held at SAC 2010. Over the last decade, we have witnessed the emergence of models, formalisms and mechanisms to describe concurrent and distributed computations and systems based on the concept of coordination. The purpose of a coordination model is to enable the integration of a number of, possibly heterogeneous, components (processes, objects, agents) in such a way that the resulting ensemble can execute as a whole, forming a software system with desired characteristics and functionalities which possibly takes advantage of parallel and distributed systems. The coordination paradigm is closely related to other contemporary software engineering approaches such as multi-agent systems, service-oriented architectures, component-based systems and related middleware platforms. Furthermore, the concept of coordination exists in many other Computer Science areas such as workflow systems, cooperative information systems, distributed artificial intelligence, and internet technologies. After more than a decade of research, the coordination paradigm is gaining increased momentum in state-of-the-art engineering paradigms such as multi-agent systems and service-oriented architectures: in the first case, coordination abstractions are perceived as essential to design and support the working activities of agent societies; in the latter case, service coordination, orchestration, and choreography are going to be essential aspects of the next generations of systems based on Web services. The Special Track on Coordination Models, Languages and Applications takes a deliberately broad view of what constitutes coordination. Accordingly, major topics of interest this year will include: - Novel models, languages, programming and implementation techniques - Applications of coordination technologies - Industrial points of view: experiences, applications, open issues - Internet- and Web-based coordinated systems - Coordination of multi-agent systems, including mobile agents, intelligent agents, and agent-based simulations - Coordination in Service-oriented architectures and Web Services - Languages for service description and composition - Models, frameworks and tools for Group Decision Making - Modern Workflow Management Systems and Case-Handling - Coordination in Computer Supported Cooperative Work - Software architectures and software engineering techniques - Configuration and Architecture Description Languages - Coordination Middleware and Infrastructures - Coordination in GRID systems - Self-Organization-Based Approaches to Coordination such as Those Based on Swarm and Stigmergy - Coordination technologies, systems and infrastructures - Relationship with other computational models such as object oriented, declarative (functional, logic, constraint), programming or their extensions with coordination capabilities - Formal aspects (semantics, reasoning, verification) ===================================================================== PROCEEDINGS Papers accepted for the Special Track on Coordination Models, Languages and Applications will be published by ACM both in the SAC 2010 proceedings and in the Digital Library. ===================================================================== PAPER SUBMISSION AND FORMAT All papers should represent original and previously unpublished works that currently are not under review in any conference or journal. The author(s) name(s) and address(es) must NOT appear in the body of the paper, and self-reference should be in the third person. This is to facilitate blind review.

This functionality is usually provided by matchmaking capabilities (which may themselves be deployed as services, brokers or middle agents) that select the services that are closest to a requested service on the basis of a declarative characterization of the capabilities of both service requested and services provided. More generally, resource retrieval extends the notion of service matchmaking to the process of discovering any kind of resource (services, data, information, knowledge, even persons and organizations) for given settings, participating entities, and purposes. It is at the core of several scenarios in the Semantic Web area, spanning from Web services, Grid computing, and Peer-to-Peer computing, to applications such as e-commerce, human resource management, and social networking applications such as dating services. The primary objective of this workshop is to bring together academic and industry researchers and industry practitioners who tackle semantic service matchmaking and discovery /from/ /various points of view/. In particular, we intend to build bridges to the software engineering and model-driven development communities in order to share requirements, technologies, and experiences that might be helpful in advancing the state of the art in semantic service matchmaking and resource retrieval. */Going to Practice: The Third Semantic Service Selection (S3) Contest/*// The SMR2 workshop also integrates the third edition of the open international contest on semantic service selection (S3) <http://www.dfki.de/%7Eklusch/s3> executed in collaboration with the Semantic Web Service Challenge. The S3 contest provides the means and a forum for evaluating the retrieval performance of Semantic Web service matchmakers in terms of recall, precision, F1, response time etc., over given test collections based on the prominent semantic service formats such as OWL-S, WSML and the standard SA-WSDL. *Publication*: Accepted papers will be available online as a volume of */CEUR proceedings/*. In addition, selected papers will be published in a special issue of the International Journal on */Software Tools for Technology Transfer/* (STTT, Springer Verlag). * * * * *Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):* * Advanced searching of services and other resources in the Semantic Web * Novel approaches to matchmaking and brokering in the Semantic Web, with a particular emphasis on Semantic Web services * Model-driven semantic service engineering and matchmaking * Semantic retrieval of resources and services in P2P and Grid networks * Matchmaking in e-commerce scenarios: auctions, e-marketplaces, supply chains * Matchmaking in other application scenarios: e-government, biopharma, etc. * Composition planning of Semantic Web services * Negotiation of Semantic Web services and resources * Interleaving of discovery, composition, and negotiation of Semantic Web services * Semantic Web services selection * Formal description and handling of Semantic Web services, queries, and resources * Non-functional service properties and their use for discovery (and composition) * Trust issues of Semantic Web service discovery * Prototypes and tools for Semantic Web services engineering * Practical business and user-oriented issues and experiences of implementing SW service retrieval tools * Experimental comparative evaluation of implemented SW service retrieval tools * * * * *Submissions :* Contributions to the workshop can be made as technical papers addressing different issues of service and resource matching. The papers should not be longer than 12 pages using the LNCS Style: http://www.springeronline.com/sgw/cda/frontpage/0,11855,5-164-2-72376-0,00.… All contributions should be prepared in PDF format and should be submitted through the workshop submission site at: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=smr22009 *Important Dates: *August 11, 2009: Deadline for the submission of papers.
