Call for Papers
6th International Symposium on Intelligent Distributed Computing - IDC 2012
September 24-26, 2012, Calabria, Italy
http://idc2012.deis.unical.it/dates.html

Important dates
Full paper submission: April 10, 2012
Notification of acceptance: May 10, 2012
Final (camera ready) paper due: June 1, 2012
Symposium: September 24-26, 2012

Intelligent computing covers a hybrid palette of methods and techniques derived from classical artificial intelligence, computational intelligence, multi-agent systems a.o. Distributed computing studies systems that contain loosely-coupled components running on different networked computers and that communicate and coordinate their actions by message transfer. The emergent field of intelligent distributed computing is expected to pose special challenges of adaptation and fruitful combination of results of both areas with a great impact on the development of new generation intelligent distributed information systems. The aim of this symposium is to bring together researchers involved in intelligent distributed computing to allow cross-fertilization and synergy of ideas and to enable advancement of researches in the field.

The symposium welcomes submissions of original papers concerning all aspects of intelligent distributed computing ranging from concepts and theoretical developments to advanced technologies and innovative applications. Papers acceptance and publication will be judged based on their relevance to the symposium theme, clarity of presentation, originality and accuracy of results and proposed solutions.

Topics include, but are not limited to:
Intelligent service composition and orchestration
E-service and Web intelligence
Multi-agent systems
Information extraction and retrieval in distributed environments
Data mining and knowledge discovery in distributed environments
Semantic and knowledge grids
Agent-oriented Cloud Computing
Distributed problem solving and decision making
Ontologies and meta-data for describing heterogeneous resources and services
Autonomic and adaptive distributed computing
Intelligence in mobile and ubiquitous computing
Intelligence in cooperative information systems, groupware and workflows, virtual enterprises, social networks
Intelligent applications in e-business/e-commerce, e-learning, e-health, e-science, e-government, crisis management
