                        --   GlobalComp  --
        Workshop on Global Computing Models and Technologies
                       27-28 September, 2008
                http://synasc08.info.uvt.ro/globalcomp
     in conjunction with SYNASC 2008 http://synasc08.info.uvt.ro
              Timisoara, Romania, 26-29 September, 2008

Global Computing refers to a worldwide distributed programmable infrastructure. It distinguishes from traditional distributed computing in terms of scalability, connectivity, heterogeneity, and autonomy. In this context, important and new issues are given by the ability of dealing with dynamic and unpredictable changes of their network environment (e.g., availability of network connectivity, lack of resources, node failures, network reconfigurations and so on). In particular, the growing complexity of the entire collection of Internet services brings the need for a change in the view of the Web as a programmable space, and a knowledge database. The aim of GlobalComp 2008 is to bring together researchers interested on fundamental aspects and technologies for Global Computing. We invite the submission of original scientific work on topics from the following list (which is not exhaustive):

I.  Models, semantics and logics for distributed and global computing
  - Process algebra, spatial-temporal logics, virtual machines, new models
  - Semantic techniques and domain theoretic models
  - Mobility, security, coordination, context awareness, remote control
II. Languages, types and algorithms for distributed and global computing
  - Interactive programming languages
  - Semantic interpreters, type checkers
  - Proof-carrying code and certifying compilation
III. Paradigms and technologies for global computing
  - Peer-to-peer computing
  - Distributed content storage and delivery services and protocols
  - Computation on networks with highly dynamic topology
  - Multimedia content processing in global computing context

You are warmly invited to make a contribution to GlobalComp workshop in the form of:
        - full research papers (up to 8 pages, IEEE style -
            http://synasc08.info.uvt.ro/storage/IEEE_CS_Latex.zip)
        - short papers (extended abstracts, work in progress), system
          descriptions and software demonstrations (up to 4 pages).
Both full and short papers must be submitted electronically to:
      gabriel at info.uaic.ro  and  eneia.todoran at cs.utcluj.ro
Papers will be refereed and accepted on the basis of their scientific merit and relevance to the workshop topics.

Publication:
The extended abstracts of the papers accepted for presentation at GlobalComp 2008 will be available to the participants at the conference site, and then published in the post-proceedings edited by IEEE Computer Society Press. Depending on the quality of submissions, it is planned to publish some selected (and additionally refereed) papers in a special issue of a journal.

Important dates:
        Submission of papers: 3 August 2008
        Notification of acceptance: 23 August 2008
        Camera ready version: 1 September 2008
        Revised papers for post-proceedings: 25 October 2008
