-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP: Composable Web 2010 Datum: Fri, 9 Apr 2010 18:15:10 +0200 Von: Sven Casteleyn <sven.casteleyn(a)vub.ac.be> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org SECOND INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON LIGHTWEIGHT INTEGRATION ON THE WEB (COMPOSABLEWEB 2010) Workshop held in conjunction with ICWE 2010 5-9 July 2010, Vienna, Austria Workshop website: http://mashart.org/composableweb2010 IMPORTANT DATES --------------- April 21, 2010: Paper submission (23h59 Hawaii Time) May 21, 2010: Author notification (23h59 Hawaii Time) June 7, 2010: Camera-ready submission (23h59 Hawaii Time) WORKSHOP RATIONALE AND AIMS --------------------------- While the word "mashup" is widely used, it is not really clear what a mashup is and what it is not. Some applications focus on integrating RSS feeds, others on integrating RESTful services or SOAP services, others of Atom feeds, and there are those that focus on integrating user interfaces. However, we believe mashups - and especially mashup tools with their models, languages and instruments for mashup development - do bring innovation, in that they tackle integration at the user interface level (most mashups do integrate presentation content, not "just" data), they aim at simplicity more than completeness of features (up to the point that advanced Web users, not only programmers, can develop composite applications), and they allow fairly sophisticated development tasks in the Web browser. Over the last years, we have seen many efforts invested in research on mashups, in both the industrial and the academic context, yet we are still far from a common understanding of the problems that drive the research, of the approaches that best fit given problems, and even of the benefits of the results achieved so far. In light of these considerations, the goal of ComposableWeb is to stimulate the discussion of key issues, approaches, open problems, innovative applications, and trends in the area of web mashups and lightweight composition on the Web, so as to accelerate progress. TOPICS OF INTEREST ------------------ Areas of particular interest for the Workshop include (but are not limited to): - Web/service mashups - Web composition technologies for data, services, and user interfaces - Web composition models and languages - Graphical support for Web composition/mashups - Lightweight data integration - Lightweight application integration - Lightweight UI integration (integration at the presentation level) - Lightweight (semantic) (meta)data or knowledge integration - Design methodologies with/without user involvement - New development models - User interface aspects of Web composition - Context-aware and personalized Web composition/mashups - Usability and Accessibility of composite Web applications - Evaluation/quality of composite Web applications - Case studies and industrial experiences TARGET AUDIENCE --------------- ComposableWeb aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners with different research interests and belonging to communities like Web Engineering, Service Engineering, Business Process Management, Databases, Semantic Web, Software Composition, and Software Engineering. PAPER SUBMISSION ---------------- Authors are invited to submit full research papers (page limit: 12 pages) or short demo papers (page limit: 3 pages). In addition to the traditional paper presentation sessions, there will be a session dedicated to the demos. Papers are submitted using the Easychair conference management system, at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=composableweb10. All papers must be formatted according to the Springer LNCS format. Submitted papers may not overlap with papers that have already been published, or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal, conference or workshop. PROCEEDINGS ----------- Accepted papers will be made available on the workshop Web site ahead of the workshop and as official Springer LNCS post-proceedings after the workshop. For a paper to be published, at least one of its authors must register for the main conference and participate in the workshop.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] CFP: The Second International Symposium on Multidisciplinary Emerging Networks and Systems (MENS 2010) Datum: Fri, 9 Apr 2010 14:10:36 +0900 Von: Roman Y. Shtykh <roman(a)akane.waseda.jp> Organisation: "ICCSA" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> Call for Papers The Second International Symposium on Multidisciplinary Emerging Networks and Systems (MENS 2010) In conjunction with The Seventh International Conference on Autonomic and Trusted Computing (ATC 2010) Xi'an, China October 26-29, 2010 http://jinlab.human.waseda.ac.jp/mens2010/ In recent years, novel computing paradigms are emerging. On conventional computer networks, we are superimposing new networking systems, such as peer-to-peer, wireless ad hoc, sensor networks, and general overlay networks. These systems’ environments are distributed, heterogeneous and dynamic. They are managed by multiple administrative authorities and shared by users with different and competing interests. More often than not, they are autonomously provided by independent and rational individuals. The most distinguishing feature of intelligent networks and systems is that, each player determines its behaviors autonomously. "Design for choice" is the fundamental principle of emerging autonomous networks and systems. As computing and network systems gradually become the fundamental infrastructure of the information society, many multidisciplinary research topics emerge to support/reflect the features of our economics and society. As we know, in the research and application of future networks and systems, only a technical approach is far too weak to deliver a satisfactory solution. It has already been proven by the dilemma of Internet QoS researches and applications. Even more important is that, multidisciplinary perspectives and approaches will shed new light on various related issues in different networks and systems, and foster new applications. For example, a social network over wireless ad hoc network can provide proximity based social computing, and may be one of the killer applications in wireless ad hoc networks. In this direction, knowledge from biology, psychology, economics (e.g., game theory), social network, and many other research fields can provide important and helpful hints for future networks and systems research. Following the success of the International Symposium on Multidisciplinary Autonomous Networks and Systems (MANS2009, http://jinlab.human.waseda.ac.jp/mans2009/), the International Symposium on Multidisciplinary Emerging Networks and Systems (MENS 2010) is organized in series to continue providing a forum for researchers and practitioners to exchange new ideas and information regarding advancements in the state of the art of emerging networks and systems from multidisciplinary perspectives. This symposium will as well facilitate to identify new research topics and envision the future. Furthermore, two Special Sessions on “Assurance Networks” and “Network Survivability” (please refer to the web site for details) are organized. Papers that illustrate innovative research works, works-in-progress, new ideas, or survey works are solicited. Topics include but are not limited to the following: Topics - Innovative models for intelligent networks and systems - Evolutionary principles of intelligent networks and systems - Bio-inspired information and communication systems - Economic concepts and mechanisms, and game theory - Emotional, and psychological computing - Complex adaptive systems, and self-organized systems - Web service, grid, cloud and transparent computing - Trust and reputation models and management - Privacy, security, ethics, culture, and anonymity issues - Mobile, Peer-to-Peer social networks and wireless ad hoc networks - Sensor networks and social sensing - Socially-inspired and collaborative computing - Agents, and massive agents systems - Service science, management and engineering - u-Things, u-Science and u-Engineering - Intelligent transportation systems, and safety-critical systems - Empirical studies of multidisciplinary approaches - Trustable and assurance networks - Network survivability, fault tolerance and dependability Paper Submission and Publication The information on how to submit papers is available on the symposium web site: http://jinlab.human.waseda.ac.jp/mens2010/Submission/ All submitted papers will be peer-reviewed by at least three PC members or external reviewers. At least one author of each accepted paper is required to register and present their work at the symposium. Otherwise the paper will not be included in the proceedings. The proceedings of the symposium will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press (Indexed by EI). And, selected papers, after extension and further revisions, will be published in special issues of prestigious SCI-indexed Journals: Elsevier, Journal of Computer and System Sciences (JCSS) (approved) Elsevier, Computer Communications (COMCOM) (pending) Important Dates Paper Submission Due: May 30, 2010 Paper Status Notification: June 30, 2010 Camera-ready Manuscript Due: July 30, 2010 Organizing Committees General Chairs Tadashi Dohi, Hiroshima University, Japan Mieso Denko, University of Guelph, Canada Program Committee Chairs Yufeng Wang, Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications, China Kuan-Ching Li, Providence University, Taiwan Goutam Chakraborty, Iwate Prefectural University, Japan PC Vice Chair for the Special Session on Assurance Networks Yoshiaki Kakuda, Hiroshima City University, Japan PC Vice Chair for the Special Session on Network Survivability Poul E.

Heterogeneous requirements are independently generated and the requirements themselves are frequently changing. Assurance in these distributed systems and networks is defined as capability of guaranteeing functional and nonfunctional system properties such as dependability, security, timeliness and adaptivity to heterogeneous and changing requirements. Technologies supporting assurance including integration of various technologies such as real time, fault tolerance, autonomy, mobility and intelligence will have to be incorporated in complex distributed systems and networks. NICT in Japan has revealed its technological strategy for future networks beyond Internet. The trustable networks are one of the target technologies. On the other hand, we have discussed assurance technologies in the ADSN workshops (see http://adsn.net.info.hiroshima-cu.ac.jp) held nine times in the past. > From the above both viewpoints, technical presentations and discussions will be executed in the special session of MENS 2010 (The Second International Symposium on Multidisciplinary Emerging Networks and Systems). The objective of the special session is to make clear what assurance networks are and to provide some technologies for assurance networks to realize trustable networks in the future. --------------------------------------------------------------- Special Session on Network Survivability (Organizer: Poul E. Heegaard, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Norway) Our society is critically dependent on access to stable, secure, and trustworthy telecommunication services and network. A major global challenge is to ensure that these networks and services supports other critical infrastructure such as transport logistics, water,- gas-, and power supply, and emergency and financial services. The same telecommunication networks also support information and entertainment services such as phone, email, newspapers, social networks, gaming. These global networks are a prerequisite for the commercial and political cooperation and are under threat as the object of sabotage (“Security cyberspace, a grand challenge in engineering). Furthermore, they are prone to instability as a consequence of their size, lack of stable protocol/management systems to keep up with network growth. It does not help that the networks are heterogeneous with ambiguous and complex vertical and horizontal operator and provider agreements and competition, absence of political (Internet governance), and technical management. A variety of threats, like attacks, accidents, and failures, may cause minor or major service degradations in the telecommunication services and network. Survivable system and survivable network have been designed and evaluated in the literature for many years as a result of severe incidents the recent years that have increased the awareness of the society’s dependence on communication services. The many definitions of survivability can be summarized as “the system’s ability to continuously deliver services in compliance with the given requirements in the presence of failures and other undesired events”. Various mathematical definitions of survivability have been proposed and according to T1A1.2 (Network Survivability Performance) working group's definition, survivability depicts the time-varying system behavior after a failure, attack or accident occurs. A special session on “Network Survivability” is invited at the upcoming MENS 2010 (The Second International Symposium on Multidisciplinary Emerging Networks and Systems). The objective of the special session is to present state of art network survivability evaluation methods, design of survivable networks, and case studies of network survivability evaluation. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: computational.science-unsubscribe(a)lists.iccsa.org For additional commands, e-mail: computational.science-help(a)lists.iccsa.org

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP BISE: IT Service Management and IT Automation Datum: Wed, 7 Apr 2010 20:56:16 +0200 Von: Martin Bichler <mar.bichler(a)googlemail.com> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org CALL FOR PAPERS ================ Business & Information Systems Engineering Journal (BISE), Special Issue 1/2011 on IT Service Management and IT Automation – Methods and Models for Efficient IT Operations (http://www.bise-journal.org <http://www.bise-journal.org/> > Call for Papers) Overview ------------ Over the last decade IT organizations have seen a significant increase in their service management cost. Juxtaposed with fairly constant costs for the actual physical IT infrastructure, the main challenges of IT departments and data centers can only be addressed by effective processes and technologies to reduce the efforts required to manage applications and services. In the past few years, we could observe how software-as-a-service providers such as Google or Salesforce.com provide standardized services to millions of users. This is only possible due to highly automated and effective IT service operations. The operations of traditional data centers and IT departments are different. They provide a large variety of heterogeneous applications to a comparatively small number of users. Furthermore, IT service management processes such as capacity, change, or service level management are often performed manually. Infrastructure-as-a-service providers such as Amazon EC2 have started to use virtualization technology and leverage economies of scale and IT automation, resulting in very competitive prices for service provisioning. Up until now, little academic literature deals with effective processes for IT service operations. Compared to established areas in IS and operations management such as data engineering, production and inventory management, IT service operations management does not yet have a solid body of methods and quantitative models for the management and automation of IT service operations. This special issue draws on research in computer science, information systems, and operations management. We are interested in new technologies, methods, and models for effective processes and efficient resource allocation in IT service operations. Papers that build quantitative methods and models and/or describe innovative, generalizable solutions in this area are welcome. Authors should employ a rigorous research methodology, including analytical modeling, simulation, and empirical work. Given the nature of the special issue, it is desirable for papers to demonstrate relevance to, and practicability for, IT service providers. Topics of Interest ------------------------ Contributions from research and business practice on the following (and related) topics are invited: Technical solutions for scalable IT solutions - Server and storage virtualization - Multitenancy - Parallel computing (e.g., MapReduce) - Cluster and grid computing Efficient resource allocation - Admission and overload control - Capacity management and performance modeling - Metering and monitoring - Management of virtualized IT infrastructures Process optimization and efficient operations - Change management and change request scheduling - Problem and incident management - Service portfolio management - Service level management Business models and pricing - Microeconomic models of cloud computing markets - Service pricing for infrastructure/platform/software-as-a-service Case studies Submission ----------------- Please submit papers by 2010-05-01 at the latest to Prof. Dr. Martin Bichler (bichler at in.tum.de). Please observe the instructions regarding the format and size of contributions to Business & Information Systems Engineering (BISE) / WIRTSCHAFTSINFORMATIK. Papers should not exceed 50,000 characters including spaces, minus 5,000 characters per page for illustrations. Papers should be submitted electronically in German or English language (as Word files or *.rtf documents). Detailed authors’ guidelines can be downloaded via http://www.bise-journal.org <http://www.bise-journal.org/>. All papers will be reviewed anonymously (double-blind process) by several referees with regard to relevance, originality, and research quality. In addition to the editors of the journal, including those of this special focus, distinguished national and international professionals with scientific and practical backgrounds will be involved in the review process.
