WORKSHOP ON ADAPTIVE DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS

September 30, 2003 Sorrento, Italy

http://www.di.fc.ul.pt/~ler/wads-03/

In conjunction with:

The 17th International Symposium on Distributed Computing (DISC 2003) (http://www.dia.unisa.it/DISC2003/)

------------------------------------------------------------------------

SCOPE

Distributed applications must be designed to cope with an increasingly diverse set of operational conditions. The available network bandwidth and latency, the network connectivity, the number of user, the system load, are, among others, examples of parameters that may change at run-time. "Adaptive distributed systems" are systems that can evolve their behavior based on changes in the environment to offer the best performance to their users. Adaptation can be considered at different levels: from abstractions to algorithms, from design patterns to implementations.

The purpose of this workshop is to provide a forum for researchers to discuss the latest practices in designing and building adaptive systems. Contributions of interest will address topics of adaptive distributed systems related, but not limited to:

* Abstractions * Design patterns * Programming languages * Middleware * Algorithms * Implementations * Case-studies

LOCATION

Sorrento, Italy. The workshop is held in conjunction with the 17th International Symposium on Distributed Computing (DISC 2003, http://www.dia.unisa.it/DISC2003/).
