Call for Papers
---------------
The Third Latin American Network Operations and Management Symposium -
LANOMS, to be held in Iguassu Falls (Foz do Iguaçú), Brazil, is the
result of the great success of both LANOMS'1999 which was held in Rio
de Janeiro and LANOMS'2001 which was held in Belo Horizonte, as well
as the other events in the area of network management known as NOMS
and APNOMS. NOMS (Network Operations and Management Symposium) was
originally created 13 years ago, and nowadays constitutes a worldwide
event for the researches in the area of network management. The
Asia/Pacific community promoted the APNOMS (Asia-Pacific Network
Operations and Management Symposium), which is an event more oriented
to the research and development community in that region. Continuing
the success of the second LANOMS, we will promote the third edition of
LANOMS (http://www.inf.ufpr.br/lanoms) on September 4-6 2003, in
Iguassu Falls, Paraná, Brazil.
The symposium is a promotion of the Federal University of Paraná
(UFPR), Brazil, technically co-sponsored by IEEE Communications
Society, and supported by IEEE Technical Committee on Network
Operations and Management (CNOM).
The main goal of the LANOMS is to create a forum more specific to the
necessities of Latin America in the area of network management
involving networking and telecommunication companies, academic
institutions and equipment vendors. LANOMS is an event open to

"SELF-MANAGING SYSTEMS"
The fourteenth IFIP/IEEE International Workshop on Distributed Systems:
Operations & Management will be held October 20-22, 2003 in Heidelberg,
Germany. The workshop is sponsored by the International Federation for
Information Processing (IFIP) Working Group 6.6 on Network Management
for Communication Networks with co-sponsorship by the IEEE
Communications Society, Technical Committee on Network Operations and
Management (CNOM). The Workshop location is the European Institute for
Research and Strategic Studies in Telecommunications (EURESCOM),
beautifully situated above the romantic city of Heidelberg with its
unique blend of river landscape, historic town, and hillside castle.
WORKSHOP SCOPE
The scope of this workshop will be on the operations and management of
distributed systems, networks, application software, and services and
the impact of advanced computing and network technologies on management.
The theme of this workshop will be "Self-Managing Systems".
Recent activities in distributed processing and network management
aim at building self-managing and self-organizing computing systems and
networks whose purpose is to automate some or all of the tasks typically
carried out by an administrator or management system.
This concept takes the distributed management paradigm one step further
by providing managed resources with a very high degree of autonomy.
Self-managing systems will be able to detect failures or performance
degradations, initiate diagnostic procedures and carry out
corrective actions on their own. Their ability to discover changes in
the environment will enable Self-managing Systems to adapt and optimize
their behavior.
Self-management is particularly important for mobile systems, since
mobile environments are highly dynamic and consist of a very large
number of managed systems. The workshop will explore infrastructures,
techniques, and methods that can be used to design and implement such
self-managing systems, as well as research results on other topics
related to distributed management.
Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to:
* Frameworks and Platforms for Self-managing Systems
* Case Studies and Experiences with Self-managing Systems
* Self-healing Systems and Networks
* Using Peer-to-peer Technologies for Management
* Management Issues in Grid Computing and Grid-based Management Systems
* Application of Service oriented Architectures (Web Services, Open Grid
Services Architecture) to Self-managing Systems
* Implementation and Integration of Self-managing Systems with
standardized frameworks, management architectures and APIs
(OSI/TMN, SNMP, CORBA, WBEM/CIM, JMX)
* Experiences with Distributed Management of Systems, Applications and
Services
* End-to-end Service Provisioning
* Monitoring, Event and Fault Handling
* QoS Management in Distributed Systems and Networks
* Transaction Monitoring and Management
* Automated Instrumentation of Distributed Applications
* Management Information Models
* Inter-Domain Management
* Adaptive Services and Applications
* Active Technologies for Management
* Policy-based Management
* Configuration Management and Self-Configuration
* Security and Trust Issues in Distributed Management
* Mobility Management
WORKSHOP ORGANIZATION
The workshop is an effort to bring together people actively working
in the management area. This international workshop is the 14th in a
series of highly successful annual workshops on "Distributed Systems:
Operations & Management (DSOM)". Recent DSOM workshops were held in
Zurich (1999), Austin (2000), Nancy (2001), and Montreal (2002).
Selection of contributions will be based on reviews of the papers
submitted. We also plan to hold a work-in-progress session where early
work will be presented.
PAPER SUBMISSION
Paper submissions must present original, unpublished research or
experiences. Late-breaking advances and work-in-progress reports from
ongoing research are also encouraged to be submitted to DSOM 2003.
*** Papers under review elsewhere MUST NOT be submitted to DSOM 2003 ***
Authors are requested to submit:
- Long papers (up to 12 single-spaced single-column pages) or
- Short papers describing work-in-progress (up to 2 pages)
in PDF or Postscript format. Detailed Author Instructions are available
from the Workshop web site http://www.dsom2003.org/.
The Proceedings of the Workshop, comprising both the accepted long and
short papers will be published by Springer Verlag in the Lecture Notes
in Computer Science (LNCS) Series. If accepted, the camera-ready copy of
each paper will have to comply with the instructions available from the
Springer web site at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html.
Note that a paper does not have to follow this style for submission;
however, being aware of the LNCS requirements may help save extra work
later.
A Best Paper Award will be presented. Candidates for the award will be
identified during the regular review process; an independent awards
committee will evaluate the candidate papers together with their
presentations and select the best paper.
