*********************************************************************** Submission deadline was extended to December. 17 (Saturday.), 17:00 CET. *********************************************************************** -------------------------------------------------------------------- 1st International Workshop on Workflow systems in e-Science (WSES 06) in conjunction with International Conference on Computational Science 2006 (http://staff.science.uva.nl/~zhiming/iccs-wses/ http://www.iccs-meeting.org/iccs2006)
May 28-31, 2006, University of Reading, UK

AIMS AND SCOPE
Grid environments enable collaborations involving large numbers of people and large scale resources, and promote the emergence of a new paradigm for scientific research: e-Science. Different layers of middleware, e.g., for managing Grid resources, computing tasks, data, and information, form the basic framework for realising an e-Science environment. By automating the management of experiment routines, a scientific workflow management system hides the underlying integration details of the e-Science resources and allows a scientist to focus on the high level domain specific aspects of the experiments. The support for scientific workflows is being recognised a crucial feature for introducing an e-Science environment to application scientists from different domains.
The WSES workshop focuses on practical aspects of scientific workflow management systems: design, implementation, applications in all fields of computational science, interoperability among workflows and the e-Science infrastructure, e.g., knowledge framework, for workflow management. The workshop aims to provide a forum for researchers and developers in the field of e-Science to exchange the latest experience and research ideas on scientific workflow management and e-Science.
Live demons of workflow systems and workflow application are welcome.
TOPICS
Authors are invited to submit original manuscripts that demonstrate current research in all areas of scientific workflow management in e-Science. The workshop solicits novel papers on a broad range of topics, including but not limited to: • Workflow infrastructure and e-Science middleware • Workflow API and graphical user interface • Workflow modelling techniques • Workflow specification language • Workflow execution engine • Dynamic workflow control • Workflow verification and validation • Workflow system performance analysis • Support tools for managing workflows • AI techniques in workflow management, e.g., planning, runtime control and user support; • Security control in managing workflow • Real-world applications of scientific workflow • Different levels of interoperability among workflow systems; • Automatic composition of scientific workflow; • Knowledge infrastructure in workflow management;
PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION
Authors should submit electronically a full (8-page) paper in PDF format to (zhiming@science.uva.nl). The papers will be carefully evaluated based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of expression. Accepted papers should be presented at the workshop. All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings in Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series by Springer-Verlag. Selected best papers, after extension, will be published in a suitable international journal as a special issue.
