Final Call for Papers: IFM 2004
by Graeme Smith 01 Sep '03

01 Sep '03

------------------------------------------------------------- FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS Fourth International Conference on Integrated Formal Methods IFM2004 http://www.cs.kent.ac.uk/ifm2004 (submission deadline: 15th September 2003) -------------------------------------------------------------- April 5-7, 2004 Canterbury, Kent, England. Theme ------- Applying formal methods may involve the modelling of different aspects of a system that are expressed through different paradigms. This motivates us to research the combination of different viewpoints upon a system, either by the creation of hybrid notations, by extending existing notations, by translating between notations, or by incorporating a wider perspective by innovative use of an existing notation. The integration of formal methods promises great benefits for systems modelling and software development. Whichever approach is taken, significant issues can arise in areas such as semantic integration, the tractability of notations, the integration of tool support, the integration of proof systems, consistency and completeness. Issues arise equally in our modelling of systems at different levels of abstraction and the development of these models through the process of refinement. The scope of IFM2004 includes all aspects of integration of different notations, paradigms, and tools, including integration of state-based and behavioural formalisms, and the formal strengthening of informal notations (e.g., UML). Special sessions are planned on the themes of Unifying Theories of Programming as well as Testing, and submissions for these are welcomed. The necessity of tool support for formal methods is widely accepted. However, much existing tool support fails to exploit the advantages that formality brings. This year's IFM is therefore particularly interested in how integrating formal methods can facilitate tool support for the development process, either by integrating tools or exploiting the particular languages combined. The conference also seeks and welcomes contributions in related areas such as: hybrid systems, the embedding of one formalism within another, and the integration of formal methods with informal or semi-formal diagrammatic notations and structuring techniques. Submissions ------------ Submissions should be original work, not published or submitted elsewhere. Submissions may be up to 20 pages in length and should be prepared with LaTeX. Springer Verlag will publish the conference proceedings in the series 'Lecture Notes in Computer Science', and hence the submissions should be prepared using the 'llncs' package (http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html). The first page of the paper should contain an abstract of the paper, a list of keywords, the names, affiliations and emails of the authors. The contact authors should further provide their fax numbers as well as their phone numbers. The corresponding author should send by email a 'ps' or a 'pdf' form of the paper to the address eab2(a)ukc.ac.uk, with the subject line "Submission to IFM2004". If electronic submission is not possible, four hard copies of the paper should be sent to the address below: "IFM2004 Submission" Eerke Boiten Computing Laboratory, University of Kent Canterbury CT2 7NF ENGLAND. Important Dates ----------------- Submission deadline: 15th September 2003 Notification of acceptance: 30th November 2003 Submission of final copy: 15th January 2004 Conference: 5-7 April 2004 Invited Speakers ----------------- Confirmed invited speakers include: Ursula Martin, St Andrews University (http://www.dcs.qmul.ac.uk/~uhmm/) and Tom Melham, University of Oxford (web.comlab.ox.ac.uk/oucl/people/tom.melham.html) and Tom Ball, Microsoft Research (www.research.microsoft.com/~tball/) Location --------- The fourth international conference on Integrated Formal Methods will be held at the University of Kent at Canterbury. The County of Kent is situated in the South-East of England, and the University sits on a hill over-looking the City of Canterbury and its world-renowned Cathedral. Accommodation for delegates will be provided on campus, other options for accommodation in Canterbury and the surrounding area can be found at: http://www.canterbury.co.uk/en/maps/index.html The conference dinner will be held at historic Leeds Castle.

CFP-MilitaryCommunications-Reminder
by erdal＠itu 25 Aug '03

25 Aug '03

CALL FOR PAPERS Special Issue of Computer Networks (Elsevier) on Future Advances in Military Communications Systems & Technologies Since the end of the Cold War there have been numerous advances in the Telecommunications Technologies that support the tactical operational support of modern military personnel. The requirement today is for rapid deployment of military assets in remote parts of the world, often in environmentally hostile geography. This places an ever-increasing dependence on Information and Communications Technology to provide real-time fault-tolerant QoS command, control and data management over fixed and freespace communications transport infrastructures. The ability of the modern combatant to have an array of 'on-board' sensor feeds to various components of the central command and control stack using a combination of HF Radio, SATCOM, spread spectrum or IP protocols places added pressure on the communications stack to provide an fully integrated network management solution for the Digital Battlefield. Key services that need to be provided include: node and network mobility (NEMO, MIP), request admission control, energy efficient device operation (e.g. IP address management or DNS), intelligent QoS-based network resource provisioning, error-free physical and MAC-layer protocols and robust security. In all of these sub-level communications technologies there is a challenge to provide more effective topology transition and data management mechanisms in order that any ad-hoc network can self-heal without impacting user data communications sessions after exception condition events have been detected. This special issue of Computer Networks is intended to foster the dissemination of high quality research in Integrated Mobility and Ad-hoc Networking in Military Networks (e.g. dealing with geolocation, rapid deployment of real-time intelligence data gathering). In recent years this has become an area of great interest with sessions at NOMS, MILCOM, and IFIP/IEEE IM as well as papers in COMNET, IEEE and ACM Journals. It is the objective of this special issue to publish papers presenting methodology, performance, and methods for providing/increasing mobility and the ability to configure an ah-hoc network at the necessary levels of QoS in support of military operations. This performance can be shown by analysis, simulation or implementation with preference being given to papers providing comparisons of alternatives used via air, land and sea. Only technical papers describing previously unpublished, original, state-of-the-art research, and not currently under review by another conference or journal will be considered. We solicit papers covering a variety of topics related to Future Advances in Military Communications Systems & Technologies including, but not limited to: Mobility Management in Tactical Networks Routing Protocols for the Digital Battlefield Supporting Mobility in Topology Transition Networks Address Allocation & Management in Hostile Networking Environments Security Architectures for Ad-Hoc Networking Tactical Self-organising Sensor Networks QoS Resource Provisioning for MANET Emerging SATCOM systems and architectures Physical and MAC-Layer Protocols Intelligent Agents for Network & Data Management Network Switching Architectures and Protocols Modeling and simulation of tactical communications systems Real-time Fault Tolerant Protocols Quantum Key Distribution in SATCOM Authors should follow the Computer Networks (Elsevier) manuscript format described at http://www.elsevier.nl/locate/comnet. Prospective authors should initially submit a PDF version of an Extended Abstract of their proposed paper topic and relevant details (not to exceed three pages) to Professor Gerard Parr at: gp.parr(a)ulster.ac.uk by Thursday 31st August 2003. On review of the extended abstracts complete manuscripts will be invited according to the following timetable :- Manuscript Due : Friday 31st November 2003 Acceptance Notification : Friday 23rd February 2004 Final manuscript Due : Friday 16th May 2004 Publication Date : October 2004 Guest Editors: Professor Gerard Parr Chair in Telecommunications Internet Technologies Research Group School of Computing and Information Engineering University of Ulster Coleraine Campus Northern Ireland United Kingdom BT52 1SA Tel: +44 (0) 28 70 324131 Fax: +44 (0) 28 70 324916 E.mail: gp.parr(a)ulster.ac.uk Dr David Robinson Senior Engineer/Scientist KIS COM MSIN QinetiQ, Malvern, PC316 United Kingdom LTC Dr. Erdal Cayirci Director of Combat Models Operations Department Turkish War Colleges Yeni Levent, 80625 Istanbul Turkey Dr Jadranka Alilovic-Curgus Research Scientist Boeing Research Laboratories The Boeing Company Seattle, USA Dr. David H.
