IEEE International Symposium on Policies for
Distributed Systems and Networks (POLICY 2009)

CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

20-22 July 2009
Imperial College London, UK
http://ieee-policy.org
----------------------------------------------------------------

The symposium brings together researchers and practitioners working on
policy-based systems across a range of application areas including
policy-based networking, privacy and security management, storage area
networking, and enterprise systems. POLICY 2009 has grown out of a
highly successful series of workshops and this is recognized by the
elevation of the event to an IEEE symposium.

This year, in addition to the latest research results from the
communities working in any area of policy-based management and
computing, we encourage contributions on policy-based techniques in
support of privacy and security management, including the policy
life-cycle, detection and resolution of inconsistency, refining policies
from users’ requirements, and usability issues.
