CALL FOR PAPERS =============

9-th International Symposium on Autonomous Decentralized Systems March 23 - 25, 2009 Athens, Greece

http://www.ece.upatras.gr/isads2009/

SPONSORED BY: IEEE, IEEE CS, EIC, IPS, SICE

SCOPE -------- Opportunities and challenges for realizing highly complex, efficient and dependable business and control systems have been steadily increasing, driven by the continuous growth in the power, intelligence, adaptiveness and openness of technologies applied in computing, communication and control systems. Dynamically changing social and economic situations demand the next-generation of systems to be based on adaptive and reusable technologies and applications. Such systems are expected to have the characteristics of living systems composed of largely autonomous and decentralized components. Such systems are called Autonomous Decentralized Systems (ADS). The International Symposium on Autonomous Decentralized System (ISADS) has been successful in the past sixteen years to address these challenges. While ISADS 2009 will focus primarily on advancements and innovations in ADS concept, technologies and applications related to networked embedded systems, other topics are also encouraged. The ISADS 2009 Technical Program Committee invites papers and proposals of workshops and panels on the topics of the symposium, which include, but are not limited to: - Computer and communication architectures - Autonomous and decentralized services, including service architecture, protocols, and collaboration - Distributed and collaborative development, test and maintenance, and development infrastructure of high-quality software systems - Ad-hoc networks and sensor networks - Advanced network infrastructures and internetworking - Assurance, fault tolerance and on-line expansion - Autonomic computing systems - Emergent control and robotic systems - Heterogeneous distributed information / control systems - Mobile agent /computer-supported cooperative works - Model driven development - Modeling and simulation of autonomous services and service-oriented application composition - Object management architecture, design patterns, application frameworks - Service-oriented architecture, design patterns, and application frameworks - Web services and Web-based application composition - Novel applications, including e-business, e-commerce and e-government; telecommunications; information service systems; manufacturing systems; real-time event management; office automation; traffic and transportation control; supply chains; environmental/emergency protection; networked health and medical systems; intelligent home control; embedded systems for automotive and avionics applications
