by christian.krupitzer＠uni-wuerzburg.de
Dear Colleagues,
We apologize if you received multiple CFPs for the Special Issue
"Applications in Self-Aware Computing Systems and their Evaluation"
==========================================
Special Issue "Applications in Self-Aware Computing Systems and their
Evaluation"
<https://www.mdpi.com/journal/computers/special_issues/SeAC_EMSAC>
https://www.mdpi.com/journal/computers/special_issues/SeAC_EMSAC
==========================================
Deadline for manuscript submissions: 30 October 2019
During the past decade, many different research communities have explored
the aspects of self-awareness in computing systems, each from their own
perspective. Relevant work can be found in different areas, including
autonomic computing, self-adaptive and self-organizing software and systems,
machine learning, artificial intelligence and multi-agent systems, organic
computing, context- and situation-aware systems, reflective computing,
model-predictive control, as well as work from the models@run-time
community. More specifically, self-aware computing systems are understood as
having two main properties. They (1) learn models, capturing knowledge about
themselves and their environment (such as their structure, design, state,
possible actions, and runtime behavior) on an ongoing basis; and (2) reason
using the models (to predict, analyze, consider, or plan), which enables
them to act based on their knowledge and reasoning (for example, to explore,
explain, report, suggest, self-adapt, or impact their environment). They do
so in accordance with high-level goals, which can change.
This Special Issue addresses all facets of research in the area of
self-aware computing systems, including fundamental science and theory,
levels and aspects, architectures for individual and collective systems,
methods and algorithms for model learning, self-adaptation in individual and
collective systems, transition strategies for increasing self-awareness in
existing systems, open challenges and future research directions, as well as
applications and case studies. In this Special Issue, particular emphasis
will be given to the evaluation of these systems, including objectives,
metrics, tools, procedure, methodologies, reference systems, and benchmarks.
Selected papers presented at the Workshop on Self-Aware Computing (SeAC) as
well as the Workshop on Evaluations and Measurements in Self-Aware Computing
Systems (EMSAC) are invited to submit their extended versions to this
Special Issue of the journal Computers. All submitted papers will undergo
our standard peer-review procedure. Accepted papers will be published in
open access format in Computers and collected together on the Special Issue
website.
Conference papers should be cited and noted on the first page of the paper;
authors are asked to disclose that it is a conference paper in their cover
letter and include a statement on what has been changed compared to the
original conference paper. Please note that the submitted extended paper
should contain at least 50% new content (e.g., in the form of technical
extensions, more in-depth evaluations, or additional use cases) and not
exceed 30% copy/paste from the conference paper.
Topics:
- Self-aware computing systems
- Self-adaptive systems
- Evaluation of adaptive systems
- Application of adaptive systems
- Development support for adaptive systems

[Storage-research-list] 20th ACM/IFIP International Conference on
Middleware 2019 (Deadline approaching)
by Vinay Setty
ACM/IFIP Middleware 2019 Conference - Call for Papers
http://2019.middleware-conference.org
where and when
UC Davis, CA; Dec 9 - 13, 2019
Dates
Abstract Submission May 10
Paper Submission May 17
Author Rebuttal August 1-5
Notification August 23
Final Version Due September 13
The annual ACM/IFIP Middleware conference is a major forum for the
discussion of innovations and recent scientific advances of middleware
systems with a focus on the design, implementation, deployment, and
evaluation of distributed systems, platforms and architectures for
computing, storage, and communication. Highlights of the conference will
include a high quality single-track technical program, invited speakers,
an industrial track, panel discussions involving academic and industry
leaders, poster and demonstration presentations, a doctoral symposium,
tutorials and workshops.
Original submissions of research papers on a diversity of topics are
sought, particularly those identifying new research directions. The
topics of the conference include, but are not limited to:
* Cloud and data centers
* Virtualization, auto-scaling, provisioning, and scheduling
* Data-intensive computing (big data) and data analytics
* Stream Processing
* Machine learning
* Mobile and pervasive systems and services
* Internet-of-Things, smart cities
* Fog, Edge computing
* Cyber-physical and Real-time systems
* Energy and power-aware techniques
* Event-based, publish/subscribe, and peer-to-peer solutions
* Networking, network function virtualization, software-defined networking
* Multimedia Systems
* Fault tolerance and Consistency
* Blockchains
* Security and privacy
* Monitoring, resource management and analysis
* Middleware Design principles
* Programming abstractions and paradigms for middleware
* Reconfigurable, adaptable, and reflective approaches
* Reviews of middleware paradigms, e.g., object models, aspect
orientation, etc.
* Methodologies and tools for design, implementation, verification, and
evaluation
Original papers of three types are sought:
* Research Papers: These papers report original research on the above
topics, and will be evaluated on significance of the problem, novelty of
the solution, advancement beyond prior work, sufficient supporting
evidence and clarity of the presentation.
* Experimentation and Deployment Papers: These papers describe complete
systems, platforms, and/or comprehensive experimental evaluations of
alternative designs and solutions to well-known problems. The emphasis
during the evaluation of these papers will be less on the novelty and
more on the demonstrated usefulness and potential impact of the
contributions, the extensive experimentation involved, and the quality
and weight of the lessons learned.
* Big Ideas Papers: These are papers that have the potential for opening
up new research directions. For such papers, the potential to motivate
new research is more important than full experimental evaluation, though
some preliminary evidence of the effectiveness of the approach or idea
is important.
Submission Guidelines
Submitted papers must have at most 12 pages of technical content,
including text, figures, and appendices, but excluding any number of
additional pages for bibliographic references. Note that submissions
must be double-blind: authors’ names must not appear, and authors must
make a good faith attempt to anonymize their submissions. Submitted
papers must adhere to the formatting instructions of the ACM SIGPLAN
style, which can found on the ACM template page. Please note that it is
preferable, although not mandatory, to use a 10pt font instead of 9pt one.
The Middleware 2019 conference proceedings will be published in the ACM
Digital Library. The official publication date will be the date the
proceedings are made available in the ACM Digital Library which may be
up to two weeks prior to the first day of the Middleware conference.
Note that the official publication date affects the deadline for any
patent filings related to published work.
Software and Data Artifact Availability for Accepted Papers
The authors of accepted papers will be invited to submit supporting
materials to be made publicly available as “source materials” in the ACM
Digital Library. The materials will be vetted by the Artifact
Availability Evaluation process run by a separate committee. This
submission is voluntary but encouraged and will not influence the final
decision regarding the papers. Papers that go through the Artifact
Availability Evaluation process successfully and are made available in
the ACM Digital Library will receive a badge printed on the papers
themselves.
