Fwd: [computational.science] Call for papers - ACM DEBS 2011
by Gustaf Neumann 07 Feb '11

07 Feb '11

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] Call for papers - ACM DEBS 2011 Datum: Mon, 7 Feb 2011 15:05:27 +0200 Von: Opher Etzion <OPHER(a)il.ibm.com> An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> ACM DEBS 2011 CALL FOR PAPERS The ACM DEBS (Distributed Event Based System) is the flagship conference of the event-based systems community. DEBS 2011 will be held in Yorktown Heights, NY, USA in July 11-15, 2011. The submission deadline of most tracks is March 7, 2011. For schedule and submission instructions refer to the DEBS conference site http://debs2011.fzi.de/ Conference Scope The scope of the conference covers all topics relevant to event-based computing ranging from those discussed in related disciplines (e.g. coordination, dependability, software engineering, peer-to-peer systems, Grid computing and streaming databases), to domain-specific topics of event-based computing (e.g. workflow management systems, mobile computing, pervasive and ubiquitous computing, sensors networks, user interfaces, component integration, Web services and embedded systems), to enterprise related topics (e.g. complex event detection, enterprise application integration, real time enterprises and Web services notifications). DEBS 2011 Tracks Five types of submissions will be accepted: research papers, industry papers, demos and posters including the DEBS grand challenge, the DEBS gong show, and PhD Workshop contributions. Further details about each submission type can be found on the call page specific for that type of contribution. Research Track All submissions must be original and unpublished. Submissions must be in the ACM format for conference proceedings. The research track of the conference adopts a double blind review process, where neither authors nor reviewers know each others' identities. Accepted papers will be published by ACM and disseminated through the ACM Digital Library. Industrial Track There are two types of submissions: industrial track papers and industrial experience reports. Industry Track Papers DEBS2011 is calling for high quality papers, to be published in the DEBS proceedings, of industry related articles of interest to, and to be presented to, the DEBS community. Industrial track papers should cover some novel use or development of event sensing, distribution or processing (operation, agent or network), or some combination of these, with an industry theme. Submitters should come from a commercial organization - either a software supplier or software end-user - although joint submissions between commercial and academic teams are also encouraged. We encourage developers from commercial organizations to publish methods and results that they have found useful in their development and are willing to share with the wider audience of the DEBS community. Industrial Experience Reports DEBS2011 is calling for proposals of industrial experience reports. The submission will be in form of the proposed presentation abstract, and will not require a full paper. Presentation proposals will be evaluated based on their interest to the DEBS community; Submitters should come from a commercial organization - either a Software Supplier or Software End-User - although joint submissions between commercial and academic teams are also encouraged. We encourage developers from commercial organizations to present methods and results that they have found useful in their development and are willing to share with the wider audience of the DEBS community whilst perhaps not desiring to create an academic paper on their subject. Tutorials Following the success of the tutorial days in the last two DEBS conferences, DEBS 2011 will host a one-day, multi-track tutorial program for which it solicits proposals for tutorials. The goal of the tutorial program of DEBS 2011 is to provide independent instruction on topics related to event-based computing, both fitting for the research audience and to an industrial audience. We solicit both long (3 hours) and short (1.5 hours) tutorials. A tutorial may cover a wide scope of topics ranging from practical techniques and guidelines over standards to theoretical work. Please note that no marketing or product specific tutorials will be accepted. Tutorial levels may be introductory, intermediate, or advanced. Topics of broad interest are preferred. Demos, Posters and the DEBS 2011 Challenge Posters Poster presentations offer researchers an opportunity to present significant work in progress or research that is best communicated in an interactive or graphical format. Further, poster presentations provide researchers with an opportunity to obtain direct feedback about their work from a wide audience during the poster session. The authors are expected to prepare and present a poster during an exhibit-style conference reception. Poster submissions are welcomed in areas related to any aspect of event processing as identified in the call for contributions. Posters should focus on problems and methodology of the presented research. Accepted contributions will be published in electronic form. Demos Demonstrations present first-hand experience with research prototypes or operational systems. They provide opportunities to exchange ideas gained from implementing event-based systems and to obtain feedback from expert users. Demonstration submissions are welcomed in any of the areas identified in the call for papers. The authors are expected to prepare a poster and perform a live software demonstration on their own laptop during an exhibit-style conference reception. Any special requirements should be identified in the appendix of the paper. Accepted contributions will be published in electronic form. Poster submissions and system demonstrations can overlap the work described in other kinds of submissions. DEBS 2011 Challenge The DEBS Challenge is the premier event for demonstrating practical progress towards achieving the vision of the Event Processing Fabric defined in the Event Processing Dagstuhl Seminar in 2010. The challenge will include a specification of an event processing application, and solicit implementations of this application, there will be two tracks: the research prototypes track and the commercial products track. The focus on the challenge will be on ease of development. The research prototypes track will also grant award for the best implementation. All implementers will be invited to present their work in the conference. DEBS 2011 Gong Show The gong show will consist of short presentations about visionary and/or outrageous ideas towards the next generation of event-based systems. Selection will be done by submitting a short abstract. The audience will vote for the best idea. Doctoral and PhD Workshop We welcome submissions from students who are enrolled in a PhD program and are working on topics relevant to those covered by the DEBS 2011 conference. We encourage submissions from students who are at the late stages of their doctoral work, and who can therefore present a relatively "complete" story about their research. We also encourage submissions from students in the beginning stages of their program, and thus have a significant "future work" component. The former category will have the opportunity to present their research to a wider audience in preparation for a job search, whereas the latter can obtain valuable feedback about their upcoming research plans. Students in both stages of their careers will benefit from interacting with each other, as well as with members of the event processing research community represented at the conference.

A process-aware information system (PAIS) provides support for the specification, execution, and/or monitoring of intra- as well as inter-organizational business processes. In this context, a complete and correct mapping of process definitions and related security policies to the corresponding software system is essential in order to assure consistency between the modeling-level specifications on the one hand, and the software system that actually manages corresponding process instances and enforces the respective policies on the other. The demand to ensure that runtime process instances comply with modeling-level processes and policies becomes even more pressing with recent laws and regulations such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX), the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), or the Basel II Accord. Moreover, corresponding compliance requirements also arise from security recommendations and standards such as the NIST security handbook, the NIST recommended security controls, the ISO 27000 standard family (formerly ISO 17799), legally binding agreements such as business contracts, or company-specific (internal) rules/regulations. This workshop is concerned with the different security aspects of process-aware information systems - including authentication, authorization, audit, availability, confidentiality, integrity, and privacy aspects. Topics ====== Suggested topics include, but are not limited to: - Requirements engineering for security aspects of PAIS - Modeling-level support for security aspects of PAIS - Implementation experiences for security aspects of PAIS - Security aspects of SOA-based PAIS - Integration of PAIS security aspects in the development process - Monitoring security aspects of PAIS - Testing security aspects of PAIS - Usability aspects of secure PAIS - Change management for security aspects of PAIS - Lessons learned and case studies Important dates: ================ - Submission Deadline: April 17th, 2011 - Author Notification: May 16th 2011 - Author Registration: June 1st 2011 - Proceedings Version: June 1st 2011 - Conference/ Workshop: August 22nd -26th 2011 Submission Guidelines ===================== Authors are invited to submit papers in IEEE Computer Society CPS style (two columns, single-spaced, including figures and references, using 10 pt fonts, and number each page). Papers must be submitted as a single PDF file. Please consult the IEEE CS CPS Author Guidelines at the following web page: http://www.computer.org/portal/web/cscps/formatting We solicit the submission of academic workshop papers (6 pages) representing original, previously unpublished work. Submitted papers will be carefully evaluated based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of exposition. Duplicate submissions are not allowed. A submission is considered to be a duplicate submission if it is simultaneously submitted to other conferences/workshops/journals or if it has been already accepted to be published in other conferences/workshops/journals. Duplicate submissions thus will be automatically rejected without review. The contact author must provide the following information: Paper title, authors' names, affiliations, postal address, phone, fax, and e-mail address of the author(s), about 200-250 word abstract, and about five keywords. Paper registration and submission is done through the ARES Paper Management System at the following address: http://stdev.ifs.tuwien.ac.at/ares2011/ Submission of a paper implies that should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register for the ARES conference and present the paper at the workshop. Accepted papers will be given guidelines in preparing and submitting the final manuscript(s) together with the notification of acceptance. Publication =========== Accepted papers will be published by IEEE Computer Society's Conference Publishing Services (CPS) and will be available online through IEEE Xplore (EI indexing). http://www.computer.org/portal/web/cscps/ Organizing committee: ===================== Workshop Co-Chairs: Mark Strembeck, WU Vienna, Austria Stefanie Rinderle-Ma, Univ. of Vienna, Austria Program committee ================= Ruth Breu, Univ. of Innsbruck, Austria Jason Crampton, Royal Holloway, Univ. of London, UK Schahram Dustdar, TU Vienna, Austria Ludwig Fuchs, Univ. of Regensburg, Germany Jan Mendling, HU Berlin, Germany Günter Müller, Univ. of Freiburg, Germany Gustaf Neumann, WU Vienna, Austria Stefanie Rinderle-Ma, Univ. of Vienna, Austria Andreas Schaad, SAP Research, Germany Mark Strembeck, WU Vienna, Austria A Min Tjoa, TU Vienna, Austria Barbara Weber, Univ. of Innsbruck, Austria Edgar Weippl, SBA Research, Austria Uwe Zdun, Univ. of Vienna, Austria -- Mailing-Liste: wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de Administrator: wi-admin(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de Konfiguration: https://www.lists.uni-karlsruhe.de/sympa/info/wi

On the other hand Social Computing is a general term for an area of computer science that is concerned with the intersection of social behavior and computational systems, including social software and Web 2.0, social network analysis, etc. These two fields are becoming closer to each other and we can see a growing interest both by research and industry on the subject. In fact the adoption of Web 2.0 features and technologies is giving an important support to collaborative work essential for knowledge management initiatives and is our intention in this workshop to discuss how knowledge management systems are using social computing, in particular Web 2.0, to support knowledge management. You are invited to participate in this workshop where we aim to bring together researchers, academics and professionals working in the field of Knowledge Management Systems and Social Computing in the Iberian space to promote a state of the art forum and create a space to launch a community of practice in the subject.
