Use of new communication technologies have brought up divergent application areas, including mobile computing, inter-enterprise collaborations, and ubiquitous services, just to name a few. New challenges include the need for service-oriented archi- tectures, autonomous and self-managing systems, peer-to-peer systems, grid computing, sensor networks, semantic enhancements, and adaptivity and dyna- micity of distribution constellations. The DAIS conference series addresses all aspects of distributed applications, including their design, implementation and operation, the supporting middleware, appropriate software engineering methodologies and tools, as well as experi- mental studies and practice reports. This time we welcome in particular contri- butions on architectures, models, technologies and platforms for interoperable, scalable and adaptable systems that are related to the latest trends towards service orientation and self-* properties. DAIS'06 is the sixth event in a series of successful international conferences which started in 1997. It will provide a forum for researchers, application and platform service vendors and users, to review, discuss and learn about new approaches, trends, concepts and experiences in the fields of distributed computing. Due to the success of the predecessor conferences and the emergence of many interesting and relevant new topics, DAIS has recently switched to a one-year-rhythm. CONFERENCE THEMES DAIS'06 solicits high quality papers reporting research results and/or experience reports.

Attendants of DAIS'06 will have the opportunity to attend the sessions of the two colocated conferences. Bologna, a historical capital of culture, was founded by the Etruscans in the VI century B.C. Bologna sits in the southern part of the historically and gastronomically famous Po River plain, a natural crossroads in northern Italy. Bologna's location was important not only for the trading of goods but also for the exchanging of ideas and the disseminating of culture. The Università di Bologna, founded in 1088 is the oldest university in the western world. Bologna is famous for its porticoes. Dating back to the 12th century the porticoes were used to enlarge houses to support the growing University community. Today 350,000 people call Bologna their home, of which 100,000 are students. Bologna, Italy's culinary capital, is also famous for its food. Furthermore, Bologna is surrounded by the famous food/wine regions of Parma, Modena, and Tuscany. Bologna is very accessible, being served by an international airport and one of the main hubs of the Italian railway system. Within easy access is Florence (1 hour), Milan (1.5 hours), Venice (1.5 hours), Rome (2.4 hours) and the ubiquitous Italian countryside of Emilia-Romagna and Tuscany.

ACM SIGCOMM 2006 CFP

von Brad Karp

Dear Colleague, We would like to encourage you to submit research papers to SIGCOMM 2006--the premier conference on networking and computer communications--which will be held in Pisa, Italy on September 11th-15th. The CFP is attached below. Our intent is for SIGCOMM 2006 to be very broad, inclusive of work across the entire spectrum of networking research, including wireless, network security, sensor networks, overlay, and peer-to-peer systems, in addition to more traditional SIGCOMM topics. To help encourage that breadth, we intend to accept approximately 50% more papers than in previous years. With your help, we believe this will lead to three very full, but also very interesting, days at the conference. Further, we note that throughout the network research community, there is renewed interest in network architecture, and what the future Internet might be in 15-20 years. Fundamental "clean slate" approaches and radical new ideas are definitely encouraged. We look forward to reading your submissions and to seeing you in Pisa in September. Regards, Tom Anderson & Nick McKeown PC Chairs, SIGCOMM 2006 --- CALL FOR PAPERS ACM SIGCOMM 2006 Conference Pisa, Italy September 11th-15th, 2006 IMPORTANT DATES Workshop/Tutorial Proposals: November 15th, 2005 Paper registration/abstract: February 3rd, 2006 (required, hard deadline) Paper submission: February 10th, 2006 (hard deadline) Paper notification: May 1st, 2006 Camera-ready papers: June 21st, 2006 Please note that notifications to authors will occur in "rolling" fashion; that is, authors may receive decisions anytime between the submission deadline and notification date. The SIGCOMM 2006 conference seeks papers describing significant research contributions to the field of computer and data communication networks. We invite submissions on network architecture, design, implementation, operations, analysis, measurement, and simulation. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: * Analysis and design of network architectures and algorithms * Experimental and measurement results from operational networks * Fundamental insights into network and traffic characteristics * Network fault-tolerance and reliability, debugging, and troubleshooting * Network management and traffic engineering * Network security, vulnerability, and defenses * Network, transport, and application-layer protocols * Networking issues for Web, multimedia, and gaming applications * Operating system and other host support for networking * Peer-to-peer, overlay, and content distribution networks * Resource management, quality of service, and signaling * Routing, switching, and addressing * Tools and techniques for network measurement and simulation * Wireless, mobile, ad-hoc, and sensor networks SIGCOMM 2006 solicits full papers up to 12 pages in length, in two-column ACM conference format. SIGCOMM is a selective conference where full papers typically report novel results firmly substantiated by experimentation, simulation, or analysis. We intend to publish public reviews of each accepted paper, to be written by the program committee. We also plan to host an open web discussion board for accepted papers prior to the conference. As in previous years, SIGCOMM 2006 will have tutorials, workshops, a poster session, a student travel grant program, and a Student Paper Award. Details will be posted as they become available on the conference web site: http://www.acm.org/sigcomm/sigcomm2006/ The conference will begin with a keynote by the 2006 winner of the ACM SIGCOMM Award for lifetime contributions to the field of computer communication.

CFP: The 3rd International Conference on Ubiquitous Intelligence and Computing (UIC-06)

von Mieso Denko

Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP. ********************* UIC-06 ************************* The 3rd International Conference on Ubiquitous Intelligence and Computing (UIC-06) - Building Smart Worlds on Real and Cyber Spaces - http://grid.hust.edu.cn/uic06/ Organized by Huazhong Univ. of Sci. and Tech. (HUST) Co-Sponsored by HUST, NSFC, 863, ChinaGrid, IFIP In Cooperation with the IEEE Computer Society (Applying) Wuhan and Three Gorges, China, September 3-6, 2006 ****************************************************** Following ubiquitous computers, networks, information, services, etc., is a road towards a smart world (SW) created on both real and cyber spaces. A SW is mainly characterized by ubiquitous intelligence (UI) or computational intelligence pervasive in the physical world, filled with ubiquitous intelligent or smart things, that are capable of computing, communicating, and behaving smartly with some intelligence. One of the profound implications of such ubiquitous smart things is that various kinds and levels of intelligence will exist ubiquitously in everyday objects, environments, systems and even ourselves, and possibly be extended from man-made to natural things. "Ubicomp" or "percomp" can be regarded as the computing of all these intelligent/smart things/u-things, that are essential elements and components of the SW. A smart thing can be endowed with different levels of intelligence, and may be context-aware, active, interactive, reactive, proactive, assistive, adaptive, automated, sentient, perceptual, cognitive, autonomic and/or thinking. Intelligent/smart things is an emerging research field covering many disciplines. A series of grand challenges exist to move from the ubiquitous world with universal services of any means/place/time to the SW of trustworthy services with the right means/place/time. UIC-06 is a successor of the 2nd Int'l Symposium on Ubiquitous Intelligence and Smart Worlds (UISW2005, Japan, Dec. 2005) which succeeds the 1st Int'l Workshop on Ubiquitous Smart Worlds (USW2005,Taipei, Mar. 2005). It offers a forum for researchers to exchange ideas and experiences in developing intelligent/smart objects, environments, and systems as well as discuss various personal/social/physical issues faced by UI and SWs. Topics include but are not limited to the following: 1. Ubiquitous Intelligent/Smart Objects * Electronic Label, Card, E-Tag and RFID * Embedded Chips, Sensor & Actuator * MEMS, NEMS, Mote & Biometric Device * Everyday Good, Artifact, Robot, etc. * Smart Appliance and Wearable Device * Material, Textile, Cloth, Furniture, etc. * Emerging Intelligent/Smart Objects * Embedded Software and Agents 2. Ubiquitous Intelligent/Smart Environments * Room, Home, Office, Laboratory, etc. * Building, Library, School, Campus, etc. * Shop, Clinic, Hospital and Health Care * Street, Yard, Park, Ground, City, etc. * Vehicle, Road, Traffic & Transportation * Land, Pool, Space and Hyperspace * Learning, Sport, Entertainment, etc. * Novel Intelligent/Smart Applications 3. Ubiquitous Intelligent/Smart Systems * Sensor, Ad Hoc & Intelligent Networks * Knowledge Representation and Ontology * Wearable, Personal and Body Area Systems * OS, Middleware and Intelligent Association * Intelligent Service Architecture, Grid & Mesh * Massive Agents, Swarm/Amorphous Systems * Proactive, Autonomic and Organic Systems * Novel Intelligent/Smart Systems 4. Personal/Social/Physical Aspects * Real/Cyber World Modeling and Semantics * End-User Interface, Control & Programming * Social/Natural/Physical Model of UI & SW * User/Object Identity and Activity Recognition * Security, Privacy, Trust and Legal/Policy Issues * Emotional, Ethical and Psychological Factors * Implication and Impact of UI and SW * Relations between Real and Cyber Worlds ==IMPORTANT DATES== Submission Deadline: March 10, 2006 Authors Notification: May 10, 2006 Final Manuscript Due: June 10, 2006 ==ELECTRONIC SUBMISSION== Prepare your paper with free styles not more than 15 pages in PDF file. Submit your paper(s) at the UIC-06 web site: http://grid.hust.edu.cn/uic06 ==PAPER PUBLICATION== Accepted papers will be published by IEEE CS Proceedings to be indexed by SCI and EI. Distinguished papers, after further revisions, will be published in special issues of the international Journal of Ubiquitous Computing and Intelligence (JUCI), and the International Journal of Pervasive Computing and Communications (JPCC). ==Organizing Committees== Honorary Chairs Horio Shiratori, Tohoku University, Japan Yaoxue Zhang, Tsinghua University, China General Chairs Jeffrey J.P.

GENERAL CHAIR/COORDINATOR: H. R. Arabnia, PhD The University of Georgia Department of Computer Science 415 Graduate Studies Research Center Athens, Georgia 30602-7404, USA Tel: (706) 542-3480 Fax: (706) 542-2966 E-mail: hra(a)cs.uga.edu PURPOSE / HISTORY: This set of joint conferences is the largest annual gathering of researchers in computer science, computer engineering and applied computing. Each of the 28 joint conferences in WORLDCOMP is the premier conference for presentation of advances in their respective fields. The motivation is to assemble a spectrum of affiliated research conferences into a coordinated research meeting held in a common place at a common time. The main goal is to provide a forum for exchange of ideas in a number of research areas that interact. The model used to form these annual conferences facilitates communication among researchers in different fields of computer science, computer engineering and applied computing. Both inward research (core areas of computer science and engineering) and outward research (multi-disciplinary, Inter-disciplinary, and applications) will be covered during the conferences. PROPOSAL FOR ORGANIZING TECHNICAL SESSIONS: Each technical session will have at least 6 paper presentations (from different authors). The session chairs will be responsible for all aspects of their sessions; including, soliciting papers, reviewing, selecting, ... The names of session chairs will appear as Associate Editors in the conference proceedings and on the cover of the books. Proposals to organize technical sessions should include the following information: name and address (+ E-mail) of proposer, title of session, a 100-word description of the topic of the session, the name of the conference the session is submitted for consideration, and a short description on how the session will be advertised (in most cases, session proposers solicit papers from colleagues and researchers whose work is known to the session proposer). Mail your proposal to H. R. Arabnia (address is given above); E-mail submissions are preferred. We would like to receive the proposals by January 10, 2006. SUBMISSION OF PAPERS: Prospective authors are invited to submit their draft paper (about 5 to 8 pages - single space, font size of 10 to 12) to H. R. Arabnia by Feb. 20, 2006. E-mail submissions in MS document or PDF formats are preferable (Fax or postal submissions are also fine.) All reasonable typesetting formats are acceptable (later, the authors of accepted papers will be asked to follow a particular typesetting format to prepare their papers for publication.) The length of the Camera-Ready papers (if accepted) will be limited to 7 (IEEE style) pages. Papers must not have been previously published or currently submitted for publication elsewhere. The first page of the draft paper should include: title of the paper, name, affiliation, postal address, E-mail address, telephone number, & Fax number for each author. The first page should also include the name of the author who will be presenting the paper (if accepted) and a maximum of 5 keywords. Also, the name of the conference that the paper is being submitted to must be mentioned on the first page. Papers will be evaluated for originality, significance, clarity, and soundness. Each paper will be refereed by two researchers in the topical area. The Camera-Ready papers will be reviewed by one person. MEMBERS OF PROGRAM & ORGANIZING COMMITTEES: The Program Committee includes members of chapters of World Academy of Science (chapters: supercomputing; scientific computing; artificial intelligence; imaging science; databases; simulation; software engineering; embedded systems; internet and web technologies; communications; computer security; and bioinformatics.) The Program Committee for individual conferences is currently being formed. Those interested in joining the Program Committee should email H. R. Arabnia (hra(a)cs.uga.edu) the following information: Name, affiliation and position, complete mailing address, email address, tel/fax numbers, a short biography together with research interests and the name of the conference offering to help with. LOCATION OF CONFERENCES: The conferences will be held in the Monte Carlo Resort hotel, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA (with any overflows at other near-by hotels).
