CALL FOR PAPERS
--- POLICY 2008 ---
2008 IEEE International Workshop on Policies
for Distributed Systems and Networks
2-4 June 2008
Palisades, NY, USA
http://www.policy-workshop.org/2008
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The policy workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners working on policy-based systems across a wide range of application areas including policy-based networking, privacy and security management, storage area networking, and enterprise systems.
POLICY 2008 is the 9th in a series of successful workshops which since 1999 have provided a forum for discussion and collaboration between researchers, developers and users of policy-based systems. This year, in addition to the latest research results from the communities working in any area of policy-based management and computing, we encourage contributions on policy-based techniques in support of management and security of all types of wireless networks: cellular, Wi-Fi, Mobile Ad Hoc, hybrids, etc.
POLICY 2008 invites unpublished novel contributions on all aspects of policy-based management. This year, as part of the technical program we also plan a special session devoted to the demonstrations of innovative policy based systems. Papers must describe original work and must not have been accepted or submitted for publication elsewhere. Submitted papers will be evaluated for technical contribution, originality, and significance. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to 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 SUBMISSION ------------------------------------------------
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).
