************************************************************************ CALL FOR PAPERS

The 3rd International Conference on

GRID SERVICES ENGINEERING AND MANAGEMENT (GSEM'06)

Erfurt, Germany, 18-21 September 2006 http://www.ict.swin.edu.au/conferences/gsem2006/

************************************************************************

The 3rd GSEM conference will be held in conjunction with the 7th International Conference Net.ObjectDays 2006 (NODE'06) in Erfurt, Germany, 18-21 September, 2006.

AIMS AND SCOPE

The Grid has emerged as a global platform to support on-demand virtual organizations for coordinated sharing of distributed data, applications and processes. Service orientation of the Grid also makes it a promising platform for seamless and dynamic development, integration and deployment of service-oriented applications. The application components can be discovered, composed and delivered within a Grid of services, which are loosely coupled to create dynamic business processes and agile applications spanning organizations and computing platforms. The technologies contributing to such Grids of services include Service-Oriented Computing, Semantic Web, Grid Computing, Software Engineering, Business Process Technology, and Agent Technology.

The GSEM 2006 conference aims at presenting and discussing the impact of the latest theoretical and practical results from the above-mentioned technological and research areas on the engineering and management of Grid services and service-oriented applications.

SUGGESTED TOPICS

The topics of the conference include all areas of grid service engineering and management, but not limited to:

* Modelling, description and discovery of services on the Grid * Deployment, packaging, and distribution of Grid services * Grid service architectures, infrastructures and deployment environments * Software engineering for Grid service creation, development, and generation * Service provisioning and Quality of Service for Grid services * Workflow planning and composition for Grid services * Service level agreement negotiation and contracting * Adaptive management, coordination, monitoring and control of Grid services and applications * Formation and management of virtual organizations * Intelligent services and Grid service agents * Security, performance and reliability engineering in service Grids * Testing and benchmarking of grid services * Grid service business models and applications * Standardization aspects

SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

We invite original research papers, work-in-progress reports and industrial experiences describing advances in the above areas, that have not been published previously, nor already submitted to other conferences in parallel with this conference. Full papers must not exceed 15 pages and follow the author instructions of Springer-Verlag that can be found at www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html, see also www.netobjectdays.org (Menu: For Authors). All papers should be in Adobe portable document format (PDF) or PostScript format. The paper should have a cover page, which includes a 200-word abstract, a list of keywords, and author's e-mail address. Authors should submit a full paper via electronic submission. All papers submitted for GSEM 2006 will be peer-reviewed and similarly to the previous years, accepted papers are planned to be published in a special proceedings by Springer Verlag. A selection of high quality papers will be invited to submit extended and enhanced versions of their papers to a special issue of a major international journal.
