CFP: International Workshop on Grid and Peer-to-Peer based Workflows

["Huhns, Michael" <huhns@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

    International Workshop on Grid and Peer-to-Peer based Workflows
   http://www.ict.swin.edu.au/conferences/qsic2005/WorkflowWorkshop
One day workshop to be held in conjunction with the 5th International
Conference on Quality Software, September 19th-21st 2005, Melbourne,
Australia

Call for Papers

Workflow research has been conducted for many years, particularly in the
client-server based context. Recently, the research endeavour has
started to shift to the grid and peer-to-peer based paradigms. Many
e-science and complex e-business applications require the creation of a
collaborative and/or decentralised workflow management system as part of
their sophisticated problem solving processes.
The objective of the International Workshop on Grid and Peer-to-Peer
based Workflows is to bring together researchers and practitioners from
academia, industry and governments to report advances in grid and
peer-to-peer based workflow research, instead of the so called
traditional client-server based counterpart. The workshop welcomes the
contribution of all aspects of research relevant to grid and
peer-to-peer based workflows. The aspects may include, but not limited
to, the following:

Grid workflow API and graphical user interface

Grid workflow execution engine

Grid workflow verification and validation

Specialised tools for managing grid workflow

Peer-to-peer based workflow management

Peer-to-peer based grid workflow

Security control in grid and peer-to-peer based workflow

Simulation environments for grid and peer-to-peer based workflow

Submission Requirements
Submitted papers must be written in English and not published or
submitted elsewhere. All submissions will be fully reviewed by at least
two reviewers and will be judged on the basis of originality,
contribution, technical and presentation quality, and relevance to the
workshop. Submission guidelines are the same as QSIC2005. Please refer
to the QSIC2005 Web site for paper submission details.

Publication of Papers
All accepted papers will appear in the QSIC2005 conference proceedings
to be published by the IEEE Computer Society. Authors of accepted papers
must register for the QSIC2005 conference.

Important Dates
They would be the same as QSIC2005:
Deadline for Paper Submission: April 22nd 2005
Notification of Acceptance: June 22nd 2005
