C A L L F O R P A P E R S ============================= 3rd International Mobile Multimedia Communications Conference (M O B I M E D I A 2 0 0 7) Supported by ACM, EURASIP, ICST, Create-Net Nafpaktos, Greece, August 27 - 29, 2007 http://www.mobimedia.org SCOPE The successful development of multimedia services and applications in mobile environments requires adopting an interdisciplinary approach where both multimedia and networking issues are addressed jointly. Multimedia semantic characteristics, Human Interpretation of audiovisual information, extraction and usage of semantic information, coding standards and its interaction with networking, mobility and security protocols are research issues that need to be carefully examined when proposing new solutions. Many are the applications that will be enabled by the new standards for mobile networking, such as triple services for mobile networks, digital television, video streaming, interactive gaming, navigation services, context aware services, and immersive communications in virtual environments. The efficient delivery of multimedia applications and services over emerging diverse and heterogeneous wireless networks is a challenging research objective. The research effort for the 3G/4G vision of interworking among heterogeneous technologies to achieve multimedia session continuity, retain multimedia QoS characteristics etc., amplifies the need to evaluate the conditions and restrictions under which delivery of such services can be accomplished. Within this scope, MobiMedia is intended to provide a unique international forum for researchers from industry and academia, working in multimedia coding, and mobile networking fields to study new applications, solutions, and standards. Original unpublished contributions are solicited that can improve the knowledge and practice in the integrated design of efficient technologies and the relevant provision of advanced mobile multimedia applications.

[mycolleagues] CFP: HPDC workshop on services-oriented computing performance

von Kenneth Chiu

Dear colleagues: Please consider submitting to this workshop. Our scope is intended to be broad, so anything in the area of performance and services would be welcome. ---------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS Workshop on Service-Oriented Computing Performance: Aspects, Issues, and Approaches http://www.cs.binghamton.edu/~kchiu/socp07/ Monterey Bay, California June 26, 2007 In conjunction with HPDC 2007 http://www.isi.edu/hpdc2007/ Service-oriented computing (SOC) is an emerging paradigm that is changing the way systems are designed, architected, deployed, and used. SOC decomposes computation into a set of loosely-coupled, abstract services, and emphasizes document-centric interactions through the exchange of messages. Services can be composed, nested, and orchestrated into a variety of control patterns and workflows. SOC has seen adoption in areas such scientific computing, Grid computing, and business computing, and can facilitate wide-scale application integration within and across organizational boundaries. SOC's loosely-coupled, document-centricity, and high degrees of encapsulation and self-description challenge performance in a number of aspects. New techniques of performance analysis, modeling, and prediction can address some of these challenges, but further research is still needed. Different programming paradigms, design methodologies, or programming language principles also may reduce or eliminate some of the abstraction, encapsulation, and composition costs of SOC. Multicore chips and cluster-wide parallelism also offer interesting avenues for improving and investigating SOC performance. Advanced processing techniques or encodings for languages such as XML also may play a role. We invite innovative papers on any aspect of performance and SOC from all communities, such as the WWW community, the programming languages community, and the Grid community. We welcome different types of papers, including experimental, works-in-progress, and position papers. By bringing together different communities, perspectives, and approaches, this workshop will seek to focus and clarify the state-of-the-art, leading to cross-fertilization. Topics include, but are not limited to: * Distributed, multicore, and parallel processing and protocols (execution models, architectures, properties, performance evaluation) * Alternative XML representations and encodings, such as "binary" XML * Code generation, incremental, lazy, and streaming techniques for improving the performance of SOC at all levels of the services stack * Programming language and compiler techniques such type-based optimizations, static analysis, and transformations * Hardware acceleration techniques for SOC such as reconfigurable computing and hybrid computing * Reducing encapsulation, abstraction, orchestration, and composition costs of SOC * Performance analysis, modeling, and prediction as it relates to SOC * Security and performance Paper Submission ---------------- Papers of up to 8 pages should be submitted electronically at https://ssl.linklings.net/conferences/hpdc/, and should use IEEE 8 1/2 x 11 CS format. Appropriate style files can be found in ftp://pubftp.computer.org/Press/Outgoing/proceedings/IEEE_CS_Latex.zip. Proceedings will be published by the IEEE CS Press, USA and will be made available online through the IEEE Digital Library. A journal special issue is also being planned, and details will be announced shortly. Important Dates --------------- Abstract Submission: February 28, 2007 Paper Submission: March 7, 2007 Author notification: March 19, 2007 Final Manuscripts: April 13th, 2007 Organizers ---------- Kenneth Chiu (kchiu(a)cs.binghamton.edu), SUNY Binghamton Shigeru Chiba (chiba(a)is.titech.ac.jp), Tokyo Institute of Technology Dennis Gannon (gannon(a)cs.indiana.edu), Indiana University Lionel Villard (villard(a)us.ibm.com), IBM Research Program Committee ----------------- To be announced. _______________________________________________ mycolleagues mailing list mycolleagues(a)grid.lrg.ufsc.br http://grid.lrg.ufsc.br/mailman/listinfo/mycolleagues

******************* ATC-07 Call For Papers********************** The 4th International Conference on Autonomic and Trusted Computing (ATC-07) - Bring Safe, Self-x and Organic Computing Systems into Reality - http://www.atc-conference.org/2007/ http://ehpclab.stfx.ca/~atc07/ Organized by Hong Kong Polytechnic University, China In Cooperation with the IEEE Computer Society Hong Kong, China, July 11-13, 2007 ************************************************************* Computing systems including hardware, software, communication and networks are growing towards an ever increasing scale and heterogeneity, becoming overly complex. Such complexity is getting even more critical with the ubiquitous permeation of embedded devices and other pervasive systems. To cope with the growing and ubiquitous complexity, Autonomic Computing (AC) focuses on self-manageable computing and communication systems that exhibit self-awareness, self-configuration, self-optimization, self-healing, self-protection and other self-x operations to the maximum extent possible without human intervention or guidance. Organic Computing (OC) additionally emphasizes natural-analogue concepts like self-organization and controlled emergence. Any autonomic or organic system must be trustworthy to avoid the risk of losing control and retain confidence that the system will not fail. Trust and/or distrust relationships in the Internet and in pervasive infrastructures are key factors to enable dynamic interaction and cooperation of various users, systems and services. Trusted/Trustworthy Computing (TC) aims at making computing and communication systems as well as services available, predictable, traceable, controllable, assessable, sustainable, dependable, persist-able, security/privacy protect-able, etc. A series of grand challenges exist to achieve practical self-manageable autonomic systems with truly trustworthy services. ATC-07 addresses the most innovative research and development in these challenging areas and includes all technical aspects related to autonomic/organic computing (AC/OC) and trusted computing (TC). ATC-07 is a successor of the First Int'l Workshop on Trusted and Autonomic Ubiquitous and Embedded Systems (TAUES-05, Japan, Dec.), the Int'l Workshop on Trusted and Autonomic Computing Systems (TACS-06, Austria, Apr.), and the 3rd International Conference on Autonomic and Trusted Computing (ATC-06, Three Gorges, China, Sep.). Topics include but are not limited to the following: -AC/OC Theory and Models * Nervous/organic models, negotiation, cooperation, competition, self-organization, emergence, etc. -AC/OC Architectures and Systems * Autonomic elements & their relationship, frameworks, middleware, observer/controller architectures, etc. -AC/OC Components and Modules * Memory, storage, database, device, server, proxy, software, OS, I/O, etc. -AC/OC Communication and Services * Networks, self-organized net, web service, grid, P2P, semantics, agent, transaction, etc. -AC/OC Tools and Interfaces * Tools/interfaces for AC/OC system development, test, monitoring, assessment, supervision, etc. -Trust Models and Specifications * Models and semantics of trust, distrust, mistrust, over-trust, cheat, risk, reputation, reliability, etc. -Trust-related Security and Privacy * Trust-related secure architecture, framework, policy, intrusion detection/awareness, protocols, etc. -Trusted Reliable and Dependable Systems * Fault-tolerant systems, hardware redundancy, robustness, survivable systems, failure recovery, etc. -Trustworthy Services and Applications * Trustworthy Internet/web/grid/P2P e-services, secure mobile services, novel applications, etc. -Trust Standards and Non-Technical Issues * Trust standards and issues related to personality, ethics, sociology, culture, psychology, economy, etc. ==IMPORTANT DATES== Submission Deadline: January 31, 2007 Authors Notification: March 15, 2007 Final Manuscript Due: April 15, 2007 ==ELECTRONIC SUBMISSION== Prepare your paper with free styles not more than 15 pages in PDF file.
