The First IEEE International Workshop on Autonomous & Autonomic Software-based Systems (ASBS’2008)
Conference
From 2008-10-26 to 2008-10-30 - CERGY PONTOISE, PARIS, FRANCE - France

Nowadays, autonomous and autonomic software-based systems are merging as a hot research topic. Autonomous software are self-contained and capable of making independent decisions, and taking actions to satisfy internal goals based upon their perceived environment. To be autonomic, a system must know itself as well as its boundaries and environment, configure and reconfigure itself, continually optimize itself, recover or heal from malfunction, protect itself, and functions in a heterogeneous world—while keeping its complexity hidden from the user. Therefore, the inherent properties and complexity of autonomous software pose new challenges throughout software lifecycle. For examples, architects and designers need new or specific architectural and design models and languages supporting design and implementation of autonomous software. Middleware and languages must integrate adequate properties facilitating autonomous software implementation. In addition, as autonomous software operate always in critical environment, it is necessary to be able to evaluate effects generated by software actions. ASBS’2008 is an IEEE Computer Society sponsored workshop covering a wide range of topics in Autonomous & Autonomic Software-based systems. ASBS’2008 in conjunction with CSTST’2008 provides an excellent opportunity for researchers to exchange leading-edge research in the dynamic field of Autonomous & Autonomic systems in general. The proceedings of the Workshop will be published by IEEE Computer Society and fully index by IEEE Xplore. Extended version of selected papers will be considered for publication in journal of Digital Information Management (JDIM) (http://www.dirf.org/jdim/publisher.htm).

Mains Topics:
  • Autonomous & Autonomic system design and development
  • Engineering of autonomous & autonomic systems
  • Autonomous & Autonomic system management, paradigms and methodologies
  • Theoretical and simulation frameworks
  • Knowledge management for autonomic & autonomous systems
  • Communication protocols and networking
  • Interoperability with legacy & heterogeneous systems
  • Interoperability with legacy & heterogeneous systems
  • Decision making, techniques and models
  • Injecting self-* properties into legacy systems
  • Formal notations for modelling and analysis of autonomous and autonomic software

The 2nd International Workshop on Cooperative Wireless Communications and Networking (CONET 2008
Conference
From 2008-09-08 to 2008-09-11 - London - United Kingdom

Cooperative wireless communications and networking is emerging as a promising technology to enhance system performance by sharing resources among wireless nodes. With cooperation at all layers of the protocol stack, the wireless network can achieve higher throughput, higher system reliability, higher energy efficiency, lower bit-error rate, and smaller packet loss rate. A variety of research in recent years have actively focused on design, simulation, modeling, and applying cooperative communications in wireless ad hoc, mesh, and sensor networks, etc. International standards organizations have been initialized various activities to apply cooperation mechanisms in the wireless LAN, PAN and MAN. For instance, the IEEE 802.16j working group is actively calling for contributions for relay metropolitan networks. The idea of cooperative wireless communications and networking can be tracked back to the work of the theoretic properties of relay channels. By sharing antennas in a multi-user environment, single-antenna wireless devices enable a virtual multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system that allows them to achieve transmit diversity, and hence obtain advantages of MIMO with reduced size, cost, and complexity of the hardware/software. Upon cooperation at physical, MAC, network, and application layer, various cooperative signaling methods are widely explored and many new mechanisms are under development with respects to routing, medium access, location management, scheduling, energy management, and so on.

Mains Topics:
  • * Cooperative diversity
  • * Virtual MIMO
  • * Channel capacity
  • * Cooperative channel coding
  • * Cognitive radio networks
  • * Cooperating services
  • * Grid computing
  • * Middleware
  • * Performance analysis, simulation and experiment
