Call for Papers
 
ACC 2005
 
1st IEEE WoWMoM Workshop on
Autonomic Communications and Computing
 
June 13, 2005 - Taormina, Italy
in conjunction with IEEE WoWMoM 2005
 
 http://www.autonomic-communication.org/acc/index.html
 
Sponsored by IEEE WoWMoM
 
Ubiquitous and self-organized Internet, ad hoc networks, wireless sensor
networks are expected to be some of the basic building blocks of
pervasive computing
environments. However, the promise of pervasive computing environments
will not be realized unless these systems can effectively "disappear".
In order to do that they need to become autonomous by managing their own
evolution and configuration changes without explicit user or
administrator action.
 
The goal of this workshop is to provide a forum to exchange ideas,
discuss solutions, and share experiences among researchers,
professionals, and application developers both from industry and
academia. Original papers addressing both theoretical and practical
aspects of autonomic communications and computing are solicited. Papers
describing prototype implementations and deployment are particularly
welcome. Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
 
-    Architecture and models for autonomic communication and computing systems
-    Tools and techniques for designing, analyzing and building autonomic systems and networks
-    Adaptive security for self protection of systems and networks
-    Economic, biological and social models used for autonomic communications
-    Novel management techniques for  autonomic communication and computing systems
-    Sensing, monitoring and measurements for self-managing systems and networks
-    Languages, development and securely programmable environments for autonomic communications systems
-    Advanced technologies for enabling autonomic communication and computing systems
-    Autonomic communication and computing testbeds and measurements
 
 
 
SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS
 
Papers should contain original material and not be previously published,
or currently submitted for consideration elsewhere. Manuscripts must be
limited to 5 pages in IEEE 8.5x11 conference format, and formatted in
strict accordance with the IEEE Computer Society author guidelines. All
submissions will be handled electronically. Authors should prepare a PDF
file and submit it to acc2005@autonomic-communication.org. Accepted
papers will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press in the
combined WoWMoM 2005 workshop proceedings.
