CALL FOR PAPERS
2008 IEEE Workshop on Policies for Distributed Systems and Networks (http://www.policy-workshop.org/2008) 2-4, June 2008, Palisades, NY
POLICY 2008 is the 9th in a series of successful workshops which since 1999. POLICY workshop addresses policy-based research across a wide range of application areas including policy-based networking, privacy and security management and others. This year, we encourage contributions on policy-based techniques in support of management and security of wireless networks. Topics of interest include the following:
POLICY MODELS AND LANGUAGES: * Abstract models and languages for policy specification * Representing policies in XML, RDF, and OWL * Semantic Web rule languages for policy reasoning * Policy standards, their extensions and refinements * Formal semantics of policies * Relationships between policies in IT processes and devices or across multiple applications * Methodologies/tools for discovering, specifying, analyzing, refining, evaluating and visualizing policy * Models of policy negotiation * Representation of belief, trust, and risk in policies
POLICY APPLICATIONS: * Application of policies for autonomic computing, QoS adaptation, and security * Application of policies for identity and privacy management * Business rules and organizational modeling * Identity management * Personalization * Risk adaptive policy systems * Database policies * Policy applications in on-demand, utility based computing * Resource virtualization and policy-based collaboration * Case studies of applying policy-based management
POLICIES IN WIRELESS NETWORKS: * Service management in mobile ad hoc networks * Policy systems for small devices * Policy-based spectrum management * Privacy and security * Policies in location based services * Context-aware policies in pervasive and mobile computing
PAPER or DEMO SUBMISSON
Papers under review elsewhere must NOT be submitted to Policy 2008. Paper or demo submissions will be evaluated on the basis of their technical merit and novelty. For System Demo, of particular interest are systems that illustrate research contributions and innovative applications of policy based technologies. Policy 2008 invites contributions in the form of either: * Technical papers (max. length 8 pages). * Short position papers describing preliminary systems or experimental results (max. length 4 pages). Please check out http://www.policy-workshop.org/2008 for details.
