Call for Papers
Special Issue on Models and Protocols for Digital Ecosystems
Springer Computing Journal
http://www.springer.com/computer/journal/607
**************************************************************
Digital Ecosystems are an emerging paradigm capturing the behavior of
large-scale collaborating communities on the global ICT infrastructure.
Such behavior includes critical features like dynamicity of coalitions,
different data access paradigms (including the ones known as "big data"),
vulnerability to new types of attacks and support for innovative value
generation and sharing.
This special issue is open to researchers from both academia and industry
working on the Digital Ecosystem paradigm.
Topics of interest include:
1. Models for the design, verification, and validation of functional and
non-functional features of ecosystem coalitions.
2. Protocols and interaction techniques suitable for large-scale ecosystem
collaborations.
3. Design and access frameworks for ecosystem "big data" layers.
4. Value and revenue models for business ecosystems.
Contributions are sought on novel theoretical approaches, as well as on
practical experiences and experimental results regarding Digital Ecosystems.
