*********************** IDC'2009 - call for papers ************************

3rd International Symposium on Intelligent Distributed Computing - IDC 2009 =========================================================================== October 12-14, 2009, Ayia Napa, Cyprus

http://www.idc2009.cs.ucy.ac.cy

Organized by Department of Computer Science, University of Cyprus, Cyprus Software Engineering Department, University of Craiova, Romania

Call for Papers =============== 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 - Intelligent integration of data and processes - Distributed problem solving and decision making - Ontologies and meta-data for describing heterogeneous resources and services - Autonomic, adaptive and self-organising distributed computing and systems - Intelligence in mobile, ubiquitous and pervasive computing - Intelligence in cooperative information systems, groupware and workflows, virtual enterprises, social networks - Intelligent distributed applications in e-business/e-commerce, e-learning, e-health, e-science, e-government, crisis management - Intelligence in Peer-to-Peer systems - Emerging behaviours in complex distributed systems - Modelling and simulation of intelligent distributed systems

Paper Submission and Publication ================================ All accepted papers will be included in the Symposium Proceedings, which will be published by Springer as part of their series Studies in Computational Intelligence. Papers should have at most 10 pages length and must be formatted according to Springer format.

Submissions and reviews are automatically handled by a system provided by the organizers. Please submit your paper here: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=idc2009

Extended versions of the best papers accepted and presented at this symposium may be considered for publication in a Special Issue of an internationally recognized journal.

Important dates =============== Full paper submission: April 3, 2009 Notification of acceptance: May 8, 2009 Final (camera ready) paper due: June 12, 2008 Symposium: October 12-14, 2009
