International Symposium on Intelligent and Distributed Computing - IDC'2007 =========================================================================== October 18-20, Craiova, Romania

http://software.ucv.ro/~badica_costin/idc2007/index.html

Submission deadline extended to May 11, 2007 Please submit your paper here: http://www.easychair.org/IDC2007/

Organized by

University of Craiova, Romania Faculty of Automation, Computers and Electronics Software Engineering Department "Multimedia Applications Development" Research Centre

News ==== - Submission deadline extended to May 11, 2007 - A Special Issue of the Informatica journal will be prepared with best IDC'2007 papers.

Invited Speakers ================ Frances Brazier, Vrije Universiteit, Amsterdam, Netherlands Gabriel Ciobanu, "A.I.Cuza" University of Iasi, Romanian Academy, Romania Peter Noerr, MuseGlobal, Inc., USA Nikos Vlassis, Technical University of Crete, Greece Jacek Zurada, University of Louisville, USA

Call for Papers =============== Intelligent computing is a quite mature field of information and communication technology covering a hybrid palette of methods and techniques derived from classical artificial intelligence, computational intelligence, multi-agent systems a.o. Intelligent computing is generally known to be computationally intensive from the point of view of resources required: time, memory, bandwidth. As this is usually thought to be a drawback, distributed computing is expected to give an impetus to its practical applications. Moreover, intelligent techniques have also proved their usefulness to core distributed computing technologies like: planning & scheduling, load balancing, replication, resource allocation and management, etc. Therefore, the emergent field of intelligent and distributed computing is expected to pose new challenges of adaptation and fruitful combination of both areas. The aim of this symposium is to bring together researchers involved in intelligent and 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 and 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, broadly understood: - 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 - Ontologies and meta-data for describing heterogeneous resources and services - Autonomic and adaptive computing - Intelligence in mobile and ubiquitous computing - Intelligence in cooperative information systems, groupware and workflows, virtual enterprizes - Intelligent applications in e-business/e-commerce, e-learning, e-health, e-science, e-government

Paper Submission and Publication ================================ All accepted papers will be included in the Symposium (Post-)Proceedings, which will be published by Springer as part of one of their series Studies in Computational Intelligence or Studies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing. Papers should have at most 10 pages length and must be formatted according to Springer format available at the following link: ftp://ftp.springer.de/pub/tex/latex/engigl/mult.zip

Submissions and reviews are automatically handled by a system provided by the organizers. Please submit your paper by clicking here: http://www.easychair.org/IDC2007/

Extended versions of the best papers accepted and presented at this symposium will be considered for publication in a Special Issue of the Informatica journal: http://ai.ijs.si/informatica/

Important dates =============== Full paper submission: April 15, 2007, extended to May 11, 2007 Notification of acceptance: June 1, 2007 Final (camera ready) paper due: July 15, 2007 Symposium: October 18-20, 2007
