CALL FOR DEMOS FOR 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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.

------------------------------------------------ DEMO SUBMISSION ------------------------------------------------

To be considered for a system demonstration, contributors are invited to submit a two page system description (not including references) following the IEEE Proceedings 2-column format (for more information, please see http://ieee-formats.notlong.com). Demo submissions will be evaluated on the basis of their technical merit and novelty. Of particular interest are systems that illustrate research contributions and innovative applications of policy based technologies. Those interested in demonstrating a system/application should submit a description following the instructions in the System Submission Section. Commercial products are eligible, but sales and marketing activities are not appropriate.

Extended abstracts of accepted demonstrations will be included in the workshop proceedings. The proceedings of the workshop will be published by IEEE Computer Society.

If you have any questions about the suitability of your work for a demo submission, please feel free to contact the demo chair, Daniel Olmedilla, at olmedilla at L3S dot de
