(our apologies for cross posting) ------------------------------------------------------------------ International Workshop on Dynamic Web Processes (DWP, 2005), Amsterdam, The Netherlands, December 12, 2005 Held in conjunction with Third International Conference on Service Oriented Computing (ICSOC 2005) WORKSHOP WEBSITE http://lsdis.cs.uga.edu/projects/meteor-s/dwp2005/ WORKSHOP SCOPE The research on Semantic Web services and processes has so far focused on specification discovery, and automated composition. Today, businesses focus on efficient ways to interact with the partners they already know and work with, and prefer to manually model their processes. However, there is emerging interest in businesses to begin exploring more dynamism in their business processes, to respond quickly to the changing environments and to make their process more adaptive/agile. This will require formal modeling of different aspects of Web services and processes - especially modeling the non-functional aspects (Quality of service, Business rules, policies, constraints, etc.). This workshop will bring together research from various disciplines as well as industrial practitioners in exploring the role of semantics in creating dynamic Web processes. The workshop further the discussions started at an earlier workshop on Semantic and Dynamic Web Processes (SDWP). TOPICS OF INTEREST We invite industrial and academic researchers to submit original research papers as well as reports on work in progress related to dynamic Web processes. Suggested topics include but are not restricted to: Use cases for dynamism in business and scientific processes Constraint analysis for Web processes Policy/Rules based configuration of Web processes Behavior modeling of Web services Functional modeling of Web services Quality of Service Modeling of Web Services Combining business rules with process management Optimization of Web processes SUBMISSION GUIDELINES The proceedings of the workshop will be published online, followed by a book of chapters based on selected papers in the Springer series. All papers should be submitted electronically in PDF and in Springer/LNCS format. Papers are not to exceed 12 pages. IMPORTANT DATES Papers submission deadline: 1st October, 2005 Author notification: 21st October, 2005 Camera ready: 5th November, 2005 Workshop: 12th December, 2005 ORGANIZING COMMITTEE Christoph Bussler, DERI Amit Sheth, Semagix, Inc. & LSDIS Lab, University of Georgia Kunal Verma, LSDIS Lab, University of Georgia Michal Zaremba, DERI PROGRAM COMMITTEE Nabil Adam, Rutgers University, USA Rama Akkiraju, IBM Research, USA Michael Altenhofen, SAP, Germany Michael Brodie, Verizon, USA Mark Burstein, BBN Technologies, USA Jorge Cardoso, University of Madeira, Portugal Pat Croke, HP, Ireland Dipanjan Chakraborty, IBM Research, India Umeshwar Dayal, HP, USA Asuman Dogac, Middle East Technical University , Turkey Prashant Doshi, LSDIS Lab, USA Marlon Dumas, Queensland University of Technology, Australia Wolfgang Gerteis, SAP, Germany Michael Huhns, University of South Carolina, USA Bill Karakostas, City University, London, UK Adrian Mocan, DERI, Ireland Marco Pistore, University of Twente, The Netherlands Manfred Reichert, University of Twente, The Netherlands Jianwen Su, University of California at Santa Barbara, USA Vlamidir Tosic, Lakehead University, Canada H.
