****************************************** Call For Papers ********************************************** * First International Workshop on the Adaptation of Web Services (AWS'2010) * * August 31st, Toronto, Canada, 2010 * * http://www.uc.rnu.tn/aws2010.html * * within WI/IAT’2010 conference *
AIMS AND SCOPE ++++++++++++++ Service-Oriented Computing (SOC) is a computing paradigm that utilizes Web services as the basic constructs to support the development of rapid, low-cost and easy composition of distributed applications even in heterogeneous environments. With the advent of SOC, computing environments have become open, and components are no longer under a single organization’s control. Consequently, Web services based applications are becoming difficult to adapt. Moreover, with the rapid growth of communication and information technologies, adaptation has gained a significant attention as it becomes a key feature of Web services allowing them to operate and evolve in highly dynamic environments. Adaptation mechanisms refer to different instantiations including configuration, healing, optimization, and protection. The primary objective of this workshop is to investigate ideas that may contribute to the adaptation of Web services. Theoretical as well as practical aspects are welcome. The workshop organizers welcome participation and contributions from those working or interested in the intersection of technologies such as agent technology and autonomic computing with SOC.
TOPICS OF INTEREST ++++++++++++++++++ The topics of interest for AWS’2010 include, but are not limited to: * Adaptation solutions to Web services * Applications of adaptive Web services * Optimization of Web services * Configuration of Web services * Healing of Web services * Protection of Web Services * Self-* Web services * Agents vs. Web services * Agents for Web services * Design and management of self-* Web services.</font>
SUBMISSION PROCEDURE and FORMATTING GUIDELINES ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Authors should submit their contributions electronically in PDF format by using the WI-IAT CyberChair system http://wi-consortium.org/cyberchair/wiiat10/scripts/ws_submit.php by the deadline given below. Papers should be written in English with a maximum of 15 pages. All submitted papers will be reviewed on the basis of technical quality, relevance, significance, and clarity. Accepted papers will be included in the Workshop Proceedings published by the IEEE Computer Society Press and will be available at the workshop. Depending on the quality of contributions, we are planning to publish a post-proceedings of the papers either as a book or a special issue of an international journal.
