Call for papers - WMSC2009: The 1st International Workshop on Workflow Management in Service and Cloud Computing (WMSC2009) 10-12 August 2009, Chengdu, China.
Website: http://www.swinflow.org/confs/wmsc/wmsc2009 Submission deadline: April 30 2009 (hard). Selected papers will be invited to special issues in Journal of Supercomputing (SCI indexed) and Distributed and Parallel Databases (SCI indexed), as well as in books. ------------- As emerging paradigms, service and cloud computing enables resource to be employed in utility-based fashion. Workflow automating business and scientific processing in step by step can be executed in service and cloud computing environments in the benefit of deploying resources for execution in that fashion. This workshop aims to provide a forum for researchers, practitioners and developers from different background areas such as service computing, cloud computing and workflow area to exchange the latest experience, research ideas and synergic research and development on fundamental issues and applications about workflow management in service and cloud computing environments. The workshop solicits high quality research results in all related areas. *Topics* The objective of the workshop is to invite authors to submit original manuscripts that demonstrate and explore current advances in all aspects of workflow management in service and cloud computing environments. The workshop solicits novel papers on a broad range of topics, including but not limited to: ? Service based workflow modelling ? Service Delivery and Composition ? Service Level Agreements (SLAs) Negotiation, Automation and Orchestration ? Quality of Services for workflow execution ? Workflow verification and validation ? Services Repository and Registry ? Service Security, Privacy and Trust for workflow modelling and execution ? Novel architectural models for cloud computing in support of workflow execution ? Cloud workflow architecture ? Cloud resource management t ? Scientific computing in the cloud ? Programming models for cloud computing ? Access control and authorisation for workflow execution ? Workflow scheduling in cloud computing ? Utility models and service pricing ? Service enabled workflow applications ? Cloud workflow applications *Submission Requirements* Please email your manuscripts in PDF to conf.ljx at gmail.com <mailto:conf.ljx at gmail.com> with the email subject as ?WMSC2009 paper submission?. Papers should be limited up to 6 pages in IEEE format <http://www.computer.org/portal/pages/cscps/cps/cps_forms.html>. 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 ISPA2009 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 in Journal of Supercomputing (SCI indexed) and Distributed and Parallel Databases (SCI indexed, pending), as well as in books. *Important Dates* Deadline for Paper Submission: April 30, 2009 (hard) Notification of Acceptance: May 15, 2009 Camera Ready Copies: May 31, 2009 *Program Committee Co-Chairs:* Jianxun Liu, Hunan University of Science and Technology, China Jinjun Chen, Swinburne University of Technology, Australia *Program Committee* Danilo Ardagna, Politecnico di Milano, Italy Shawn Bowers, University of California at Davis, USA Christoph Bussler, Merced Systems, Inc., USA Jian Cao, Shanghai Jiaotong University, China Peter Dadam, University Ulm, Germany Wanchun Dou, Nanjing University , China Schahram Dustdar, Vienna University of Technology, Austria Yushun Fan, Tsinghua University, China Ken Hawick, Massey University, New Zealand Robert C.
