******************* 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.

[mycolleagues] IMUx 2007 - Final call for papers - Deadline extended to February 5, 2007

von Petteri Nurmi

[apologies for cross postings] Due to numerous requests, the submission deadline for the International Workshop on Improved Mobile User Experience (IMUx) has been extended to February 5, 2007 (11:59PM EST) ======================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS International Workshop on Improved Mobile User Experience (IMUx 2007) http://www.hiit.fi/imux In conjunction with the 5th International Conference on Pervasive Computing (Pervasive 2007) Toronto, Ontario, Canada May 13, 2007 ======================================================================== Current interfaces of mobile devices are rather limited when adaptability, context-awareness and proactiveness are considered. For example, they do not utilize the context of the interaction, nor the environmental changes in the user's proximity or the capabilities of the device. This context can include information about the situation and the user preferences, longer or shorter time usage histories, etc. To improve usability and to provide a better user experience, the interfaces of the devices should become more intelligent and require less intentional user inputs. In order to achieve this goal, novel interaction methods need to be developed and combined with statistical models of the user that capture, for example, her behavior, personal preferences and goals. Furthermore, the developed solutions need to be evaluated via extensive user tests to guarantee they are valuable to the users. To improve the dialogue between the different research topics and their practitioners, the workshop aims at bringing together researchers from the fields of user modeling, user interaction and user experience, with developers of mobile and ubiquitous applications. The ultimate goal of the workshop is to provide a common forum for exchanging ideas between these domains. Submissions to the workshop should combine at least two of the following aspects: - User modeling - User interaction - User experience Example topics include, but are not limited to, - adaptive context-aware user interfaces - adaptive mobile computing applications - considerate computing - context-aware information retrieval - embedded solutions for machine learning - large scale data gathering and its challenges - large scale user studies - minimal/implicit/reduced user interaction MANUSCRIPT FORMAT The workshop welcomes scientific papers, demonstrations and videos. The manuscripts should be prepared according to the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science guidelines (http://www.springer.com/east/home/computer/lncs?SGWID=5-164-7-72376-0). The maximum length of submissions is 10 pages for research papers and 6 pages for videos and demonstrations. We plan to publish the proceedings of the workshop as a post-proceedings. IMPORTANT DATES February 5, 2007: Submission deadline March 2, 2007: Notification of acceptance/rejection March 12, 2007: Camera-ready paper submission deadline May 13, 2007: Workshop SUBMITTING PAPERS Paper submissions are being handled by the EDAS system.

Extended Deadline: [IEEE WoWMoM'07] CFP Autonomic and Opportunistic Communications (AOC), Workshop (Deadline: February 11, 2007)

von Luciana Pelusi

We apologize in advance if you receive multiple copies of this CFP ******************************************************************** *CALL FOR PAPERS* First IEEE WoWMoM Workshop on *** AUTONOMIC and OPPORTUNISTIC COMMUNICATIONS - AOC 2007 *** June 18, 2007 - Helsinki, Finland http://cnd.iit.cnr.it/aoc2007/ organized by *ANA and HAGGLE projects* funded by the FET-IST Programme in the area Situated and Autonomic Communications (SAC) **** *EXTENDED Deadline --- February 11, 2007* **** Fast Track on Pervasive and Mobile Computing (PMC) Journal http://www.elsevier.com/locate/pmc ******************************************************************** We are faced with an era where the widespread use of small portable wireless devices and wireless technologies are building the pervasive vision. This pervaded world has generated new communication paradigms: autonomic and opportunistic communications. Communication among devices in a pervasive environment can happen if the devices can communicate autonomously, and manage their own evolution and configuration changes in the network, without explicit user or administrator action. In a pervasive world, even in the absence of any connectivity infrastructure mobile devices can communicate using the connection "opportunities" that arise due to mobility. The goal of this workshop is to provide a forum between the autonomic and opportunistic communication communities to exchange ideas, discuss solutions, and share experiences among researchers, professionals, and application developers both from industry and academia. Original papers addressing both theoretical and practical aspects of autonomic communications and computing are solicited. Papers describing prototype implementations and deployment are particularly welcome. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Architecture and models for autonomic and opportunistic communications * Tools and techniques for designing, analyzing and building autonomic and opportunistic networks * Adaptive security for self protection of networks * Economic, biological and social models used for autonomic and opportunistic communications * Mobility models for opportunistic networking * Novel management techniques for autonomic and opportunistic communications * Sensing, monitoring and measurements for self-managing networks * Advanced technologies for enabling autonomic and opportunistic communications * Autonomic and opportunistic communication testbeds and measurements PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION ================================= Papers should neither have been published elsewhere nor currently under review by another conference or journal. Guidelines on paper submission and formatting are available at http://cnd.iit.cnr.it/aoc2007/. Accepted papers will appear in the symposium proceedings published by IEEE. Extended versions of workshop selected papers will be considered for possible fast track publication on the Pervasive and Mobile Computing Journal (Elsevier).
