CALL FOR PAPERS The International Workshop on Intelligent Services and Process Management (ISPM’08) http://www.swin.edu.au/hosting/ispm/ to be held at The 6th International Conference on Service Oriented Computing ( ICSOC'08) Sydney, Australia, December 1-5, 2008 http://cgi.cse.unsw.edu.au/~soc/icsoc08/ ABOUT THE WORKSHOP The purpose of the workshop is to present and discuss the recent significant developments at the intersections of service oriented computing and intelligent systems and technologies, and to promote cross-fertilization of ideas and techniques between these fields. In particular, the workshop aims at identifying techniques from multi-agent systems, artificial intelligence and semantic technology research that will have the greatest impact on automating service-oriented application construction and management, focusing on critical challenges such as service quality assurance, reliability, and adaptability. TOPICS We invite papers that address significant developments at the intersections of service oriented computing and intelligent systems and technologies. Specific topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Intelligent management frameworks and platforms for service-oriented computing - Agent-enabled adaptation, evolution, and optimization of services and processes - Semantic service description, advertisement, matchmaking, discovery, and brokering - Agent-based service composition, orchestration, and choreography - Intelligent monitoring, control and exception-handling for service execution and delivery - Agent-based negotiation and management of Quality of Service and Service Level Agreements - Intelligent techniques and frameworks for dynamic service processes and workflows - Integration and management of agent-based services and service-oriented agents - Self-managed service compositions and processes that exhibit intelligent adaptive and autonomic properties - Agent and semantic web-enabled service business models and applications, and lessons learned SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION All papers must be prepared in accordance with the Springer/LNCS camera-ready format and be submitted electronically in PDF to http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ispm08. Papers should not exceed 15 pages, including all references and figures. All submissions should include title, authors, and full contact information. Detailed instructions for authors are available on the LNCS website at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html. Submissions will be peer-reviewed by three reviewers per paper. Selection criteria will include: relevance, significance, impact, originality, technical soundness, quality of presentation. Some preference may also be given to papers which address emergent trends or important common themes, or which enhance balance of workshop topics. Accepted papers will be published in the workshop proceedings with Springer-Verlag’s LNCS. A selection of best papers will also be invited to submit extended and enhanced versions of the papers to a special issue of a major international journal.
