Call for papers: DASC2011 - 9th IEEE International Conference on Dependable, Autonomic and Secure Computing, Dec.12-14, 2011, Sydney, Australia.

These systems consist of heterogeneous software/hardware/network components of changing capacities, availability, and in varied contexts. They provide computing services to large pools of users and applications, and thus are exposed to a number of dangers such as accidental/deliberate faults, virus infections, malicious attacks, illegal intrusions, and natural disasters etc. As a result, too often computer systems fail, become compromised, or perform poorly and therefore untrustworthy. Thus, it remains a challenge to design, analyze, evaluate, and improve the dependability and security for a trusted computing environment. Trusted computing targets computing and communication systems as well as services that are autonomous, dependable, secure, privacy protect-able, predictable, traceable, controllable, assessable and sustainable. The scale and complexity of information systems evolve towards overwhelming the capability of system administrators, programmers, and designers. This calls for the autonomic computing paradigm, which meets the requirement of self-management by providing self-optimization, self-healing, self-configuration, and self-protection. As a promising means to implement dependable and secure systems in a self-managing manner, autonomic computing technology needs to be further explored. On the other hand, any autonomic system must be trustworthy to avoid the risk of losing control and retain confidence that the system will not fail. Trusted and autonomic computing and communications need synergistic research efforts covering many disciplines, ranging from computer science and engineering, to the natural sciences to the social sciences. It requires scientific and technological advances in a wide variety of fields, as well as new software, system architectures, and communication systems that support the effective and coherent integration of the constituent technologies. Scope and Topics Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to: #Autonomic Computing Theory, Models, Architectures and Communications #Dependable Automatic Control Techniques and Systems #Cloud Computing with Autonomic and Trusted Environment #Dependability Models and Evaluation Algorithms #Dependable Sensors, Devices, Electronic-Mechanical Systems, Optic-Electronic Systems, Embedded Systems, etc. #Self-improvement in Dependable Systems #Self-healing, Self-protection and Fault-tolerant Systems #Hardware and Software Reliability, Verification and Testing #Software Engineering for Dependable Systems #Safety-critical Systems in Transportation, Power System, etc. #Security Models and Quantifications #Trusted P2P, Web Service, SoA, SaaS, EaaS, PaaS, etc. #Self-protection and Intrusion-detection in Security #DRM, Watermarking Technology, IP Protection #Context-aware Access Control #Virus Detections and Anti-virus Techniques/Software #Cyber Attack, Crime and Cyber War #Human Interaction with Trusted and Autonomic Computing Systems #Security, Dependability and Autonomic Issues in Ubiquitous Computing #QoS in Communications and Services Submission Guidelines Submissions must include an abstract, keywords, the e-mail address of the corresponding author and should not exceed 8 pages for main conference, including tables and figures in IEEE CS format.

Customers (enterprises or individuals) can then provision and deploy these services in a pay-as-you-go fashion and in a convenient way while saving huge capital investment in their own IT infrastructures. It has evoked a high degree of interest internationally with many challenges such as security and privacy remaining open. Green computing, in general, aims to enable computing and IT infrastructures to be energy efficient and environmentally friendly. With dramatically increasing demand on computing and storage systems, IT infrastructures have been scaled tremendously which results in huge amount of energy consumption, heat dissemination, greenhouse emission and even part of climate change. As such, green computing has come to the picture seeking solutions for computing and IT infrastructures to be energy efficient and environmentally friendly. While customers can enjoy green atmosphere as well as cost saving and convenience because cloud computing accommodates their IT infrastructures in the cloud, how to green the cloud becomes increasingly challenging and extremely important in terms of global energy efficiency and environmental sustainability. CGC (Cloud and Green Computing) is created to provide a prime international forum for both researchers, industry practitioners and environment experts to exchange the latest fundamental advances in the state of the art and practice of Cloud computing and Green computing as well as joint-venture and synergic research and development across both areas.

These systems consist of heterogeneous software/hardware/network components of changing capacities, availability, and in varied contexts. They provide computing services to large pools of users and applications, and thus are exposed to a number of dangers such as accidental/deliberate faults, virus infections, malicious attacks, illegal intrusions, and natural disasters etc. As a result, too often computer systems fail, become compromised, or perform poorly and therefore untrustworthy. Thus, it remains a challenge to design, analyze, evaluate, and improve the dependability and security for a trusted computing environment. Trusted computing targets computing and communication systems as well as services that are autonomous, dependable, secure, privacy protect-able, predictable, traceable, controllable, assessable and sustainable. The scale and complexity of information systems evolve towards overwhelming the capability of system administrators, programmers, and designers. This calls for the autonomic computing paradigm, which meets the requirement of self-management by providing self-optimization, self-healing, self-configuration, and self-protection. As a promising means to implement dependable and secure systems in a self-managing manner, autonomic computing technology needs to be further explored. On the other hand, any autonomic system must be trustworthy to avoid the risk of losing control and retain confidence that the system will not fail. Trusted and autonomic computing and communications need synergistic research efforts covering many disciplines, ranging from computer science and engineering, to the natural sciences to the social sciences. It requires scientific and technological advances in a wide variety of fields, as well as new software, system architectures, and communication systems that support the effective and coherent integration of the constituent technologies.

Customers (enterprises or individuals) can then provision and deploy these services in a pay-as-you-go fashion and in a convenient way while saving huge capital investment in their own IT infrastructures. It has evoked a high degree of interest internationally with many challenges such as security and privacy remaining open. Green computing, in general, aims to enable computing and IT infrastructures to be energy efficient and environmentally friendly. With dramatically increasing demand on computing and storage systems, IT infrastructures have been scaled tremendously which results in huge amount of energy consumption, heat dissemination, greenhouse emission and even part of climate change. As such, green computing has come to the picture seeking solutions for computing and IT infrastructures to be energy efficient and environmentally friendly. While customers can enjoy green atmosphere as well as cost saving and convenience because cloud computing accommodates their IT infrastructures in the cloud, how to green the cloud becomes increasingly challenging and extremely important in terms of global energy efficiency and environmental sustainability.

Among these technologies, Cognitive-based text understanding (CTU) is one of the newest directions of Web Wisdom and should be paid more attention to. The machine understanding of Web resources is the basis of Web Wisdom. Cognitive Informatics (CI) is an emerging discipline that studies the natural intelligence, internal information processing mechanisms of the brain and the processes involved in perception and cognition as well. CTU simulates the cognitive process of human brain understanding text, so it takes advantage of cognitive theories to make the machine understanding of Web resources effectively and promotes Web Wisdom to a great extent. Topics: The objective of the workshop is to invite authors to submit original manuscripts that demonstrate and explore current advances in all aspects of Web Wisdom (especially the aspect of Cognitive-based text understanding). The workshop solicits novel papers on a broad range of topics, including but not limited to: * Theories and Practices of World Wide Wisdom Web (W4) * Cognitive Models and Computational Models for W4 * Intelligent Web Searching and Services * Web Mining and Information Retrieval * Web Knowledge Organization and Fusion * Data Link and Semantic Link * Web Knowledge Flow * Web-based Cooperation Model * Text Understanding and Representation * Text Complexity Measurement * Text Readability Measurement * Text Trust Measurement * Interactive Computing Submission Requirements: Please email your manuscripts in PDF to xwei at shu.edu.cn with the email subject as ?CTUW paper submission?. Papers should be limited up to 8 pages in IEEE format. All papers will be peer reviewed by two or three pc members. Submitting a paper to the workshop means that if the paper is accepted, at least one author should register to SCA2011 and attend the conference to present the paper. Publication of Papers: All accepted papers will appear in the proceedings published by IEEE Computer Society (EI indexed). Selected papers will be invited to special issues of SCA2011 in Journal of Organizational Computing and Electronic Commerce, Social Science Computer Review and Computers in Human Behavior.

Various social computing applications such as blogs, email, instant messaging, social networking (Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.), wikis, and social bookmarking have been widely popularised where people interact socially via computing space. Such applications have been profoundly impacting social behaviour and life style of human beings while pushing the boundary of computing technology simultaneously. While people can enjoy or even indulge in the benefits such as freedom and convenience brought about by social computing, various critical issues such as privacy protection, touch-screen based HCI design, and modelling of social behaviour in computing space still remain challenging. SCA (Social Computing and its Applications) is created to provide a prime international forum for both researchers, industry practitioners and environment experts to exchange the latest fundamental advances in the state of the art and practice of Social Computing and broadly related areas.

Various social computing applications such as blogs, email, instant messaging, social networking (Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, LinkedIn, etc.), wikis, and social bookmarking have been widely popularised where people interact socially via computing space. Such applications have been profoundly impacting social behaviour and life style of human beings while pushing the boundary of computing technology simultaneously. While people can enjoy or even indulge in the benefits such as freedom and convenience brought about by social computing, various critical issues such as privacy protection, touch-screen based HCI design, and modelling of social behaviour in computing space still remain challenging. SCA (Social Computing and its Applications) is created to provide a prime international forum for both researchers, industry practitioners and environment experts to exchange the latest fundamental advances in the state of the art and practice of Social Computing and broadly related areas. Scope and Topics Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to: ? Fundamentals of social computing ? Modelling of social behaviour ? Social network analysis and mining ?

Call for papers: DASC2011 - 9th IEEE International Conference on Dependable, Autonomic and Secure Computing, Dec.12-14, 2011, Sydney, Australia. Website: http://www.swinflow.org/confs/dasc2011/ Key dates: Submission Deadline: extended to August 30, 2011 Submission site: http://cse.stfx.ca/~DASC2011/sub/ Publication: Proceedings will be published by IEEE CS Press. Special issues: Distinguised papers will be selected for special issues in Journal of Computer and System Sciences; or Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience. =========== Introduction As computer systems become increasingly large and complex, their Dependability, Security and Autonomy play critical role at supporting next-generation science, engineering, and commercial applications. These systems consist of heterogeneous software/hardware/network components of changing capacities, availability, and in varied contexts. They provide computing services to large pools of users and applications, and thus are exposed to a number of dangers such as accidental/deliberate faults, virus infections, malicious attacks, illegal intrusions, and natural disasters etc. As a result, too often computer systems fail, become compromised, or perform poorly and therefore untrustworthy. Thus, it remains a challenge to design, analyze, evaluate, and improve the dependability and security for a trusted computing environment. Trusted computing targets computing and communication systems as well as services that are autonomous, dependable, secure, privacy protect-able, predictable, traceable, controllable, assessable and sustainable. The scale and complexity of information systems evolve towards overwhelming the capability of system administrators, programmers, and designers. This calls for the autonomic computing paradigm, which meets the requirement of self-management by providing self-optimization, self-healing, self-configuration, and self-protection. As a promising means to implement dependable and secure systems in a self-managing manner, autonomic computing technology needs to be further explored. On the other hand, any autonomic system must be trustworthy to avoid the risk of losing control and retain confidence that the system will not fail. Trusted and autonomic computing and communications need synergistic research efforts covering many disciplines, ranging from computer science and engineering, to the natural sciences to the social sciences. It requires scientific and technological advances in a wide variety of fields, as well as new software, system architectures, and communication systems that support the effective and coherent integration of the constituent technologies. Scope and Topics Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to: #Autonomic Computing Theory, Models, Architectures and Communications #Dependable Automatic Control Techniques and Systems #Cloud Computing with Autonomic and Trusted Environment #Dependability Models and Evaluation Algorithms #Dependable Sensors, Devices, Electronic-Mechanical Systems, Optic-Electronic Systems, Embedded Systems, etc. #Self-improvement in Dependable Systems #Self-healing, Self-protection and Fault-tolerant Systems #Hardware and Software Reliability, Verification and Testing #Software Engineering for Dependable Systems #Safety-critical Systems in Transportation, Power System, etc. #Security Models and Quantifications #Trusted P2P, Web Service, SoA, SaaS, EaaS, PaaS, etc. #Self-protection and Intrusion-detection in Security #DRM, Watermarking Technology, IP Protection #Context-aware Access Control #Virus Detections and Anti-virus Techniques/Software #Cyber Attack, Crime and Cyber War #Human Interaction with Trusted and Autonomic Computing Systems #Security, Dependability and Autonomic Issues in Ubiquitous Computing #QoS in Communications and Services Submission Guidelines Submissions must include an abstract, keywords, the e-mail address of the corresponding author and should not exceed 8 pages for main conference, including tables and figures in IEEE CS format.
