[Fwd: [OC-ML] Call for papers: Workshop "Organic Computing" at ARCS 2007]

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [OC-ML] Call for papers: Workshop "Organic Computing" at ARCS 2007 Datum: Thu, 19 Oct 2006 16:16:54 +0200 (CEST) Von: Fabian Rochner <rochner(a)sra.uni-hannover.de> An: rochner(a)sra.uni-hannover.de Dear subscribers of the Organic Computing Mailinglist, at ARCS 2007, taking place March 12-15, 2007 at Zurich, a workshop on Organic Computing will take place on the last day of the conference. Deadline for submissions to this workshop is December 21st. Further details on the conference can be found at http://arcs07.ethz.ch/. Regards, Fabian Rochner ================================================== WORKSHOP ORGANIC COMPUTING - TOOLS, APPLICATIONS AND ARCHITECTURES March 15, 2007, ETH Zürich Organic Computing has emerged as a challenging vision for future information processing systems. Organic Computing is based on the insight that in the near future we will be surrounded by large collections of autonomous systems equipped with sensors and actuators to be aware of their environment, to communicate freely, and to organize themselves in order to support people at work and in their everyday life. This presence of networks of intelligent systems in our environment opens fascinating application areas but, at the same time, bears the problem of their controllability. Hence, we have to construct these systems - which we increasingly depend on - as robust, safe, flexible, and trustworthy as possible. In particular, a strong orientation of these systems towards human needs as opposed to a pure implementation of the technologically possible seems absolutely central. In order to achieve these goals, our technical systems will have to act more independently, flexibly, and autonomously, i.e. they will have to exhibit life-like properties. We call those systems "organic". Hence, an "Organic Computing System" is a technical system, which adapts dynamically to the current conditions of its environment. It will be self-organizing, self-configuring, self-healing, self-protecting, self-explaining, and context-aware. The vision of Organic Computing and its fundamental concepts arose independently in different research areas like Neuroscience, Molecular Biology, and Computer Engineering. Central aspects of Organic Computing systems have been and will be inspired by an analysis of information processing in biological systems. The focus of this OC workshop will be on technical applications, tools and architectures for organic computing systems. Workshop topics - tools and toolboxes for organic computing - organic computing applications - architectures for organic computing - self-X in production systems - complex adaptive systems - technical usage and controllability of emergence Deadlines Submission until Dec. 21, 2006 Notification of acceptance Jan. 13, 2007 Final version until Jan. 21, 2007 Submission of papers Papers can be submitted in PDF format in english. The papers should have a maximum of 10 pages and must be formatted in the VDE-Verlag style. http://www.vde-verlag.de/buecher/tagungd.html Papers must be submitted at http://ocws07.informatik.uni-augsburg.de Worshop chairs Wolfgang Trumler, University of Augsburg Theo Ungerer, University of Augsburg Program committee Bernhard Bauer, Universität Augsburg Jürgen Becker, Universität Karlsruhe Michael Beigl, Universität Braunschweig Uwe Brinkschulte, Universität Karlsruhe Martin Emele, Robert Bosch GmbH Dietmar Fey, Friedrich Schiller-Universität Jena Stefan Fischer, Universität Lübeck Hans-Ulrich Heiß, TU Berlin Jörg Henkel, Universität Karlsruhe Andreas Herkersdorf, TU München Christian Hochberger, TU Dresden Wolfgang Karl, Universität Karlsruhe Paul Lukowicz, Universität Passau Erik Maehle, Universität zu Lübeck Christoph von der Malsburg, Universität Bochum Christian Müller-Schloer, Universität Hannover Wolfgang Reif, Universität Augsburg Jochen Schiller, Freie Universität Berlin Hartmut Schmeck, Universität Karlsruhe Bernhard Sick, Universität Passau Dirk Timmermann, Universität Rostock

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: E-NEXT.members: CFP: The 4th International Conference on Autonomic and Trusted Computing (ATC-07) Datum: Tue, 17 Oct 2006 22:35:12 +0200 Von: Xiaoyuan Gu <xiaogu(a)ibr.cs.tu-bs.de> Organisation: TU Braunschweig An: members(a)ist-e-next.net ******************* ATC-07 Call For Papers********************** The 4th International Conference on Autonomic and Trusted Computing (ATC-07) - Bring Safe, Self-x and Organic Computing Systems into Reality - http://www.atc-conference.org/2007/ http://ehpclab.stfx.ca/~atc07/ Organized by Hong Kong Polytechnic University, China In Cooperation with the IEEE Computer Society Hong Kong, China, July 11-13, 2007 ****************************************************** Computing systems including hardware, software, communication and networks are growing towards an ever increasing scale and heterogeneity, becoming overly complex. Such complexity is getting even more critical with the ubiquitous permeation of embedded devices and other pervasive systems. To cope with the growing and ubiquitous complexity, Autonomic Computing (AC) focuses on self-manageable computing and communication systems that exhibit self-awareness, self-configuration, self-optimization, self-healing, self-protection and other self-x operations to the maximum extent possible without human intervention or guidance. Organic Computing (OC) additionally emphasizes natural-analogue concepts like self-organization and controlled emergence. Any autonomic or organic system must be trustworthy to avoid the risk of losing control and retain confidence that the system will not fail. Trust and/or distrust relationships in the Internet and in pervasive infrastructures are key factors to enable dynamic interaction and cooperation of various users, systems and services. Trusted/Trustworthy Computing (TC) aims at making computing and communication systems as well as services available, predictable, traceable, controllable, assessable, sustainable, dependable, persist-able, security/privacy protect-able, etc. A series of grand challenges exist to achieve practical self-manageable autonomic systems with truly trustworthy services. ATC-07 addresses the most innovative research and development in these challenging areas and includes all technical aspects related to autonomic/organic computing (AC/OC) and trusted computing (TC). ATC-07 is a successor of the First Int'l Workshop on Trusted and Autonomic Ubiquitous and Embedded Systems (TAUES-05, Japan, Dec.), the Int'l Workshop on Trusted and Autonomic Computing Systems (TACS-06, Austria, Apr.), and the 3rd International Conference on Autonomic and Trusted Computing (ATC-06, Three Gorges, China, Sep.). Topics include but are not limited to the following: -AC/OC Theory and Models * Nervous/organic models, negotiation, cooperation, competition, self-organization, emergence, etc. -AC/OC Architectures and Systems * Autonomic elements & their relationship, frameworks, middleware, observer/controller architectures, etc. -AC/OC Components and Modules * Memory, storage, database, device, server, proxy, software, OS, I/O, etc. -AC/OC Communication and Services * Networks, self-organized net, web service, grid, P2P, semantics, agent, transaction, etc. -AC/OC Tools and Interfaces * Tools/interfaces for AC/OC system development, test, monitoring, assessment, supervision, etc. -Trust Models and Specifications * Models and semantics of trust, distrust, mistrust, over-trust, cheat, risk, reputation, reliability, etc. -Trust-related Security and Privacy * Trust-related secure architecture, framework, policy, intrusion detection/awareness, protocols, etc. -Trusted Reliable and Dependable Systems * Fault-tolerant systems, hardware redundancy, robustness, survivable systems, failure recovery, etc. -Trustworthy Services and Applications * Trustworthy Internet/web/grid/P2P e-services, mobile/ pervasive services, novel applications, etc. -Trust Standards and Non-Technical Issues * Trust standards and issues related to personality, ethics, sociology, culture, psychology, economy, etc. ==IMPORTANT DATES== Submission Deadline: January 15, 2007 Authors Notification: March 15, 2007 Final Manuscript Due: April 15, 2007 ==ELECTRONIC SUBMISSION== Prepare your paper with free styles not more than 15 pages in PDF file.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: CFP IEEE Communications Magazine Peer-to-Peer Multimedia Streaming Datum: Mon, 16 Oct 2006 23:43:57 -0200 (BRST) Von: nfonseca(a)ic.unicamp.br An: multicomm(a)comsoc.org, csim(a)comsoc.org, tccc(a)comsoc.org Call for Papers IEEE Communications Magazine Feature Topic on Peer-to-Peer Multimedia Streaming In recent years, peer-to-peer (p2p) multimedia streaming has aroused much interest both in research communities and in industries. By allowing peers serving each other in the network, p2p technology overcomes many limitations in traditional client-server paradigm to achieve user and bandwidth scalabilities. It has been shown that performance of a properly-designed p2p network actually improves, rather than deteriorates, with the increase of population size. Peer-to-Peer technology is promising for large content distribution as demonstrated by a number of proof-of-concept prototypes in both academia and companies. In a p2p multimedia streaming system, multimedia contents are delivered to a large pool of distributed users with low delay, high quality and high robustness. Fueled by advances in networking and compression technologies, p2p multimedia streaming has experienced much initial deployment success for applications such as Internet TV (IPTV), video conferencing, and surveillance. It is the key to address the emerging needs of large-scale digital IPTV, interactive videos, interactive games and other next-generation broadcast-based or personalized multimedia services. A scalable peer-to-peer multimedia system should support many hosts, possibly in excess of hundreds or even millions, with diverse heterogeneity in bandwidth, capability, storage, network, and mobility. It should also be able to support various applications under dynamic user arrival and departure, frequent host failures and unavailability, and unpredictable user behaviors, network traffic and congestion. In a p2p streaming networks, users should be able to share, search, and access contents in a distributed and efficient manner. To achieve these goals, it is particularly important to address the challenges in architecture design, network/transport support, resource discovery and content delivery mechanisms. Scope of Contributions This feature issue is devoted to original surveys and tutorials on these emerging issues in P2P streaming. Authors are invited to submit complete unpublished original articles that are not under review in any other conference or journal. Topics of interest include, but not limited to the following: * Peer-to-peer media distribution, systems and infrastructures * Novel peer-to-peer streaming applications and services * Overlay networks and application-level multicast for media streaming * Robustness in peer-to-peer streaming networks * Scalability, reliability, accessibility, manageability, and availability for P2P streaming systems. * Resource discovery and location in peer-to-peer streaming * Performance measurement and monitoring of peer-to-peer streaming systems * Deployment experience and application of peer-to-peer media distribution systems Peer-to-peer streaming prototypes and their implementation * Reputation, trust and incentives in peer-to-peer streaming systems * Peer-to-peer based content distribution * Business models for P2P media distribution * Mobile P2P streaming Schedule Submission Deadline: November 1st, 2006 Acceptance Notification: February 15th, 2007 Final Manuscript: April 1st, 2007 Publication date : June, 2007 Submission of Papers For manuscript submission, the authors should follow the IEEE Communications Magazine guidelines under "Information for Authors" at http://www.comsoc.org/pubs/commag/sub_guidelines.html.
