First IEEE WoWMoM Workshop on Adaptive and DependAble Mission- and bUsiness-critical mobile Systems
ADAMUS 2007
In conjunction with the 8th Int. Symposium on a World of Wireless, Mobile and Multimedia Networks (WoWMoM'07) Helsinki, Finland, 18th June, 2007
( WoWMoM web site : http://ieee-wowmom.tml.hut.fi/ ADAMUS web site : http://www.mobilab.unina.it/ADAMUS/ ADAMUS'07 cfp pdf : http://www.mobilab.unina.it/ADAMUS/CFP_adamus07.pdf)
WORKSHOP SCOPE ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- A truly extended use of mobile computing technologies asks for effective software engineering techniques to design, develop and maintain mission- and business-critical applications over mobile environments. In recent years, we witnessed an increasing demand for mission- and business-critical applications over mobile environments. To overcome the intrinsic limitations of mobile devices and environments, a variety of research studies have produced a plethora of methods and proof-of-concept prototypes for supporting non-critical applications. However, it is still unclear whether current technologies, methods, and solutions can satisfy the challenging adaptability and dependability requirements of the emerging mobile mission- and business- critical systems and applications, such as mobile commerce, wireless control of robots, healthcare computing, and video-surveillance. To be effective, these applications must endorse provisions that allow them to continue the optimal distribution of their service despite the occurrence of potentially significant and sudden changes or faults in their infrastructure and the surrounding environment. Hence, it is becoming increasingly important: to devise conceptual models and paradigms able to mange and to express strategies and provisions for change tolerance and for cross-layer adaptation; to propose mechanisms to model, design, and develop adaptive and dependable systems; to provide analytical and simulation tools to measure a system's ability to withstand faults and optimally re-adjust to new environments; to develop design-/run-time solutions to identify and enforce optimal trade-offs between energy consumption, performance, safety, and security. The main goal of this first workshop is that of fostering exchange of ideas and lively discussions to reduce the gap between research achievements and industrial applications in the field of adaptive and dependable mission- and business- critical mobile systems and applications.
Researchers and practitioners from the academia and the industry are encouraged to participate. High quality papers able to identify open issues, to discuss the limits and/or advantages of existing solutions, or to propose original and innovative techniques for adaptive and dependable mission- and business-critical applications over mobile environments are solicited for submission. The main topics of the workshop include, but are not limited to: * Dependability and real-time adaptation requirements for mobile systems * Dependability measurement of mobile systems and services * Design principles, models, and tools for adaptive mobile systems * Mobile-enabled middleware for heterogeneous wireless networks * Middleware support for adaptation and dependability * Context data provisioning and modelling * Context-based adaptive infrastructures * Human-machine interaction and usability * Multi-device systems * Integration of heterogeneous software platforms and operating systems * Architectures for resource and network monitoring and adaptation * Cross-layer adaptation * Software dependability in multimedia systems over wireless media * Group communication and group membership services * QoS control and component scheduling
PAPER SUBMISSION ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADAMUS 2007 invites authors to submit original and unpublished work. Papers must be written in English and should not exceed 6 pages in IEEE proceedings style. All submissions will be handled electronically. Authors should submit a PostScript or PDF file through the submission Web site (http://www.mobilab.unina.it/ADAMUS/). Submission implies that at least one of the authors will register and present the paper. Accepted papers will appear in the WoWMoM'07 Workshops proceedings published by the IEEE Computer Society Press.
