ABOUT OTM 2014 *new!*

---------------------------------------

 

This 13th edition of OnTheMove (OTM 2014) as before is composed of three
interrelated yet complementary scientific conferences that together attempt
to span a relevant range of the advanced research on, and cutting-edge
development and application of, information handling and systems in the
wider current context of ubiquitous distributed computing.

 

The three conferences call for submissions that cover scientific aspects of
fundamental theories, methodologies and emergent technologies, as well as
their adoption and application in enterprises and their impact on societally
relevant IT issues. 

 

-           CoopIS'14, Cooperative Information Systems, our flagship event
in its 22nd edition since its inception in 1993, invites fundamental
contributions on principles and applications of distributed and
collaborative computing in the broadest scientific sense in workflows of
networked organizations, enterprises, governments of just communities

-           Cloud and Trusted Computing '14, is the successor of DOA
(Distributed Object Applications) and focuses on critical aspects of
infrastructure for cloud computing, specifically spanning issues of trust,
reputation, and security

-           ODBASE'14, Ontologies, Databases and Applications of SEmantics
covers the fundamental study of structured and semi-structured data,
including linked [open] data, and the meaning of data as is needed for
today?s databases, and the role of data and semantics in design
methodologies and new applications

 

 

These conferences typically share at least three common critical research
vectors, yet these are covered differently in each. They are (1) theory
(e.g. study of underlying scientific formalisms), (2) linking to a
conceptual design level (e.g. meaningful methodology or semantic
interpretation of issues) and (3) fundamental study of applicability for
specific uses (e.g. proofs of concept, case studies and industrial best
practices). The main events (as well as the workshops, presumably) also all
share the powerful effects of the technology- and application-pull created
by the Web, it obviously being the world?s most evident distributed
computing environment. Contributions that illustrate e.g. related emergent
synergies are therefore especially welcome.

 

Within their respective approaches to advancing the state of the art in
science and industry, all three federated conferences do therefore have in
common the rigorous scientific study of the inherently distributed,
pervasive and ubiquitous nature of modern computing systems.

 

To stimulate this intended "cross-pollination", OnTheMove 2014 as always
will have a program of famous and representative keynote speakers that is
shared (all participants of all events may attend). A parallel program of
evolving incubator-style workshops that cover emerging areas related to the
context at large of distributed IT and all its aspects and applications
completes the federative character of OnTheMove.  

 

For 2014 again a number of broadly interrelated themes have been identified;
submissions w.r.t. these themes should carefully position themselves since
these will likely be emphasized in separate manner by the respective
component conferences:

 

   * Mobile aspects of secure computing in general as a basis for trusted
use of Cloud-based IS

   * Infrastructure and semantics for big data and the internet in general

   * Role of community-driven, semantics-based business intelligence in
cooperative IS 

   * Implementation and application of open innovation in ecosystems of
organizations and enterprises

 

We especially also wish to draw attention to our newly refurbished OTM
Academy, a unique and specially developed comprehensive program for PhD
students and their advisors. Accepted submissions under this program will
enjoy a thorough and interactive critique of presentation (both by poster
and paper) about their PhD project. The OTMA Faculty also actively trains
and coaches students on key academic activities such as peer review of
papers, and supervises editing and publication of their accepted
contribution in our LNCS workshop proceedings.

 

Furthermore, there is the recently added Industry Case Studies Program
(ICSP), in which successful submitters may use OnTheMove as the forum for
presenting cutting-edge applications of distributed computing, receiving
analysis and critique by the attending scientific community.
