[ecoop-info] Call for Participation: Dependable and Adaptive Distributed Systems Track at ACM SAC'08

[Johannes Osrael]

Call for Participation

 

Dependable and Adaptive Distributed Systems Track 

of the 23nd ACM Symposium on Applied Computing

 

March 16-20, 2008

Fortaleza, Ceara, Brasil

http://www.dedisys.org/sac08/

 

 

The track is structured in two sessions:

 

 

Session DADS-1: Wednesday, March 19, 2008, 10:30-12:10

 

The first session focuses on the dependability and security 

properties of complex systems and how these properties can 

be maintained and balanced in an adaptive way. In particular, 

the following papers comprise this session:

 

1. Performability Evaluation of Mobile Client-Server Systems

   (O. Das and A. Das)

 

2. A framework for dependable QoS adaptation in 

   probabilistic environments

   (A. Casimiro, P. Lollini, M. Dixit, 

    A. Bondavalli, and P. Verissimo)

 

3. Improving Denial of Service Resistance using 

   Dynamic Local Adaptations

   (G. Badishi and I. Keidar)

 

4. Serpentine: Adaptive Middleware for Complex 

   Heterogeneous Distributed Systems

   (M. Matos, A. Correia Jr., J. Pereira, and R. Oliveira)

 

5. Providing Dependability for Web Services

   (J.L.R. Souza and F. Siqueira)

 

 

 

Session DADS-2: Wednesday, March 19, 2008, 13:30-15:10

 

The second session focuses first on questions regarding 

replication and ordering guarantees in group communication 

as underlying technologies for dependable systems. 

Second, this session focuses on the questions of modeling 

and adaptivity. In detail, the following papers are 

part of this session:

 

1. Conflict-Aware Load-Balancing Techniques for 

   Database Replication

   (V. Zuikeviciute and F. Pedone)

 

2. SIPRe: A Partial Database Replication Protocol with SI Replicas

   (J.E. Armendariz-Inigo, A. Mauch-Goya, 

    J.R. Gonzalez de Mendivil, and F.D. Munyoz-Escoi)

 

3. Total Order Broadcast on Pervasive Systems

   (L.A. Steffenel, M. Kirsch Pinheiro, and Y. Bebers)

 

4. Model-Driven Development of Component-based 

   Adaptive Distributed Applications

   (A. Phung-Khac, A. Beugnard, J.-M. Gilliot, and M.-T. Segarra)

 

5. Modelling Adaptive Services for Distributed Systems

   (L. Rosa, A. Lopes, and L. Rodrigues)

 

 

Poster sessions: Tuesday, March 18, 2008

Finally, three poster papers have been accepted:

 

1. SSCM: Middleware for Structure-based Service Collaboration

   (D. Ma, M. Liu, Y. Zhao, and C. Hu)

 

2. On the Control of Adaptation in Ubiquitous Computing Systems

   (L.C. da Silva, C.A. da Costa, C. Geyer, I. Augustin, 

    and A.C. Yamin)

 

3. A Pattern-Driven Security Process for SOA Applications

   (N.A. Delessy and E.B. Fernandez)
