THEME : The Pervasive Internet -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Researchers are encouraged to submit papers related to theme of this year: The Pervasive Internet:
The Internet has been revolutionizing and changing the way we communicate, access information and conduct businesses. Today, the Internet is evolving into a pervasive and highly distributed ecosystem of connected computers, mobile devices, sensors, home appliances, and a variety of other Internet devices. This evolution is leading to deep intertwining of the physical and digital worlds, raising new research agendas and challenging our understanding of the requirements for networked computing and Internet based Service Oriented Architectures. SAINT focuses on emerging research challenges raised by the pervasive Intenet, and its future applications and services, as well as their enabling technologies. The symposium provides a forum for researchers and practitioners from the academic, industrial, public and governmental sectors to share their latest innovations on Internet technologies and applications. Areas of particular interest include, but are not limited to:
A. Internet Application Areas: * Content Management: semi-structured data, information integration, search and retrieval, data mining, semantic web, mobile and local search * Content Delivery: media streaming, web caching, QoS, universal access and interfacing * Web Services: architecture & middleware, information agents, brokering and negotiation, service discovery, service composition, context-aware services * E-Business: Internet-based workflow, virtual enterprises, B2B, auctioning systems * Collaboration: fixed, mobile & ad-hoc groupware, social network software, trust & IPR technologies * Internet communities: peer-to-peer platforms and applications, folksonomies, protocols for self-organizing communities, social networks * Wireless Access: content adaptation, location-based services, mobile transactions, personalization, mobile service discovery & delivery * Ubiquitous and Pervasive Computing: smart space architecture and middleware, sensor networks and sensor web, pervasive programming models and tools,
B. Enabling technologies for the Internet: * Software Architectures: service-oriented architectures, GRID computing, peer-to-peer and overlay networks, mobile agents, very large scale server systems * Standards: including XML, WSDL, WSFL, ebXML, Java, JXTA, .NET, EchoNet, SODA, others. * Internet Security: architecture, threats, detection, countermeasures, trust models, others. * Network and Protocol Architectures: routing, performance, ad-hoc, sensor and mobile networks, IPv6 * Information Appliances: smart phones, PDAs, sensor platforms, RFID based and embedded. computers
