ZEUS
2014: CALL FOR PAPERS [Apologies for
cross-postings]
=============================================================================
6th
Central-European Workshop on Services and their Composition
(ZEUS)
=============================================================================
The 6th
Central-European Workshop on Services and their Composition
(ZEUS 2014)
will take
place at the Hasso Plattner Institute at the University of
Potsdam on
February
20 and 21, 2014.
================================
Participation
is free of charge!
================================
Objectives
==========
ZEUS
focuses on the discussion of fresh ideas, the presentation of
work in
progress,
and the establishment of a scientific network between young
researchers
in the region.
1.
Discuss fresh ideas
We offer
a forum to discuss ideas at a level that is more
work-in-progress than
in a
traditional conference. We thereby want to attract especially
PhD students
in the
early phases of their work. Participants can get feedback from
outside
their
group before a submission to a reviewed conference. This makes
ZEUS an
original
opportunity to discuss ideas.
2.
Practice scientific work
We see
the ZEUS workshop as an opportunity to practice the whole
range of
scientific
work. We do not take the sole focus on the submitted papers,
but
also in
the presentations and the discussions on the workshop. To this
end, we
hand out
a Best Presentation Award since 2010 at the end of the
workshop to
appreciate
high quality presentations.
3.
Establish contacts between young researchers in the region
We aim at
bringing together young researchers who work in the same
geographic
and the
same scientific region. This way, we would like to provide an
opportunity
for people to establish a scientific network that can be
intensely
used,
including mutual visits at affordable costs. The workshop will
serve as a
platform
to present current research ideas and research directions.
Topics
======
The
topics of the ZEUS workshop are centered around service
technology, which
includes
a rich set of facets. The purpose of analysis, synthesis or
simulation
of
service compositions are as welcome as practical evaluations,
use
case-driven
feasibility studies, or technology adoption models. ZEUS also
calls
for
contributions in the field of Cloud computing and RESTful
services.
Topics
include, but are not limited to:
- Aspects
around the service lifecycle (analysis, specification,
modeling,
testing,
deployment, execution, monitoring)
-
Patterns, languages, and reference models
-
Multi-view and multi-perspective engineering (SOA,
choreographies,
collaborations,
conversations, artifact-centric systems)
- Formal
methods, models, simulation and verification
- RESTful
systems (design aspects, hypermedia, linked data, mashups,
other
protocols,
...)
-
Workflows and business processes
- Complex
event processing (correlation, aggregation, transformation,
monitoring,
extraction)
-
Security, compliance, and nonfunctional properties
-
Cloud-enabled applications, migration to/from the Cloud, big
data
-
Applications, frameworks, tool demonstration, and case studies
Submission
==========
Results
can be presented in talks or tool demonstrations. Submissions
will be reviewed by at least three reviewers each in order to
assure general fitness regarding content, readability and
scope and to give first feedback to the authors. Depending on
innovation, technical soundness and presentation clarity,
papers may be rejected or accepted as position or workshop
paper.
Workshop
papers: Workshop papers are "regular" contributions that
describe original solutions in field of ZEUS. These papers
must not exceed 6 pages (LNCS style1). Workshop papers are
reviewed according to the call for papers. Accepted papers
shall be included in the proceedings and presented at the
workshop.
Positions
papers: Position papers should draft a new idea and put it up
for discussion at the workshop. Position papers should only be
an extended abstract and must not exceed 3 pages (LNCS
style1). Position papers are briefly reviewed according to the
call for papers. The main idea and the relation to existing
work should be contained. Accepted papers shall be included in
the proceedings.
Position
papers have been introduced based on the experiences gained
from the last editions. They allow authors to get early
feedback during the workshop, but should not disallow
extending the paper to a full paper submitted to a first class
conference – even if the position paper is referenced and
the delta is explained properly.
Tools
demonstrations: ZEUS also offers a forum to demonstrate
implementations of techniques and algorithms in the area of
the aforementioned topics to get early feedback and provide
interesting insights for the audience. Tool demonstrators are
asked to submit a demo script of no more than 3 pages (LNCS
style1) which states how the tool is linked to the call for
papers and what to expect during the demonstration.
