It welcomes submissions and attendance from all over the world. It will be held in Leuven, Belgium, April 18-21, 2006. EuroSys aims to bring together researchers from different areas of computer systems, who are otherwise spread over multiple conferences. As a result, we seek papers on all aspects of computer systems. We especially seek papers that cross the divide between areas. Papers should report, where possible, on the design, implementation, analysis, evaluation, and deployment of such systems. ____________________________________________________________ NSDI 2006 Title: 3rd Symposium on Networked Systems Design and Implementation (NSDI '06) Abstract: 2005-10-10 Deadline: 2005-10-17 Webpage: http://www.usenix.org/nsdi06/ Conference: May 8-10, 2006 Contact: nsdi06chairs(a)usenix.org Location: San Jose, CA, USA Synopsis: NSDI 2006 focuses on the design principles of large-scale networks and distributed systems. Systems as diverse as scalable Web services, peer-to-peer file sharing, sensor nets, and distributed network measurement share a set of challenges. Our goal is to bring together researchers from across the networking and systems community--including operating systems, distributed systems, and computer networking--to foster cross-disciplinary approaches to our shared research challenges. NSDI seeks a broad variety of work that furthers the knowledge and understanding of the networking and systems community as a whole, continues a significant research dialog, or pushes the architectural boundaries of large-scale network services. ____________________________________________________________ WWW 2006 Title: 15th International World Wide Web Conference (WWW'06) Abstract: 2005-11-04 Deadline: 2005-11-04 Webpage: http://www2006.org Conference: May 22-26, 2006 Contact: chase(a)cs.duke.edu Location: Edinburgh, Scotland Synopsis: The WWW conference series is the prime venue for the latest ideas and developments about the Web. WWW2006 seeks original papers describing research in all areas of the Web. Topics include but are not limited to: Performance, Reliability and Scalability, Pervasive Web and Mobility, Search, Security, and Privacy. Submissions should present original reports of substantive new work.

PERVASIVE is an international conference held annually which aims to present significant research contributions in the area of pervasive computing technologies, systems and applications. The last three conferences in this series were held in Munich (May 2005), Linz/Vienna (April 2004) and Zurich (August 2002). It provides a forum for researchers, developers, and users throughout the world to present advances in computing technology toward new modes of operation (ubiquitous, continuous, and self-organised) and toward new usage models (ambient, context-aware, and closely integrated into human activities and environments). In addition to a highly selective single-track program for technical papers, PERVASIVE 2006 will include a keynote address, late breaking results, videos, poster presentations, workshops, demonstrations, an outreach public lecture and a doctoral colloquium. Authors are invited to submit manuscripts of original unpublished research work in all areas. Relevant topics include (but are not limited to) the following: * Device, communication, and interaction technologies for pervasive computing. * Pervasive sensing, perception and inference for context technologies. * Software infrastructure, middleware and frameworks for pervasive computing systems and environments. * Analysis, design, implementation and evaluation of pervasive systems and applications. * Deployment and management of pervasive systems and services and emerging industrial scenarios. * Pervasive computing interaction models, user interfaces * Personalisation and user experience reports in pervasive computing. * Privacy, security and trust in pervasive computing.

Wireless connectivity with mobility support is an important enabling technology for pervasive computing and communications. The emergence of multi-hop wireless network (wireless ad hoc networks, sensor networks) and The mobility of distributed computing components raise a number of interesting, and difficult theoretical and algorithmic issues and will play a key role in development and progress of these emerging paradigms. FAWN 2006 is devoted to algorithms, theory and modeling in the context of mobile and wireless computing and networking. It is intended to be a lively meeting, covering many of the algorithmic aspects of this field ranging from optimization, computational geometry, spatial stochastic models for wireless communications, graph, random graphs, spatial point processes and stochastic geometry, discrete and continuum percolation, theory combinatorics and approximation algorithms. The workshop is intended to foster cooperation among researchers in mobile computing and researchers in discrete and distributed algorithms and offer an opportunity to discuss and express their views on the current trends challenges and state of the art solutions addressing issues in wireless computing and networking. The aim of FAWN 2006 is to show how theoretical and algorithmic aspects in the context of mobile and wireless computing and communications can be used to analyze and optimize key features of wireless networks like coverage, mobility, routing, capacity, scheduling, power control etc. TOPICS OF INTEREST ------------------ Papers are solicited in all research and applied areas related to mobile and wireless computing and communications where discrete algorithms and methods are used, including, but not limited to: * Ad hoc networks * Channel assignment and management * Distributed algorithms * Distributed wireless sensor networks * Dynamic graph algorithms * Localization and location tracking * Media access techniques and protocols * Modeling and performance evaluation * Power aware protocol * Quality-of-service issues * Scheduling * Security/fault-tolerance issues * Self-configuration * Selfish behavior and cooperation * Spatial stochastic models * Synchronization * Topology control PAPER INSTRUCTIONS ------------------ Submitted papers must not have been published elsewhere nor currently be under review by another conference or journal. Submission instructions are published on the conference web site.
