We apologize for any crosspostings. Please distribute... ----------------------------------------------------------- Call for Papers 3rd VLDB Workshop on Technologies for E-Services (TES'02) http://www.gkec.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de/tes02 August 23-24, 2002 Kowloon Shangri-La Hotel Hong Kong, China In Conjunction with: 28th International Conference on Very Large Data Bases (VLDB 2002) Workshop Objectives =================== The next generation of applications will be developed in form of services that are offered over a network, either a company's intranet or the Internet. Service-based architectures depend on an infrastructure that allows service providers to describe and advertise their services and service consumers to discover and select the services that best fulfill their requirements. Frameworks and messaging protocols for e-services in stationary and mobile environments are being developed and standardized, metadata and ontologies are being defined, and mechanisms are under development for service composition, delivery, monitoring, and payment. End-to-end security and quality of service guarantees will be essential for the acceptance of e-services. As e-services become pervasive, e-service management will play a central role. The workshop's objective is to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners to present new developments and experience reports. The goal of the TES workshop is to identify the technical issues, models and infrastructures that enable enterprises to provide e-services to other businesses and individual customers. Therefore, we will include industry sessions on various key application areas to be presented by distinguished invited speakers. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): * E-service description and advertisement * E-service location and selection * E-service brokering * E-service composition * E-service invocation and delivery * E-service monitoring * E-service personalization * E-service management and life-cycle * E-service validation and rating models * Pricing and payment models * Quality of service guarantees * Security and privacy in service discovery and delivery * Secure messaging protocols * XML-based protocols and description languages * Business intelligence for e-services * Business data exchange format and standards * Interorganizational workflows * Enterprise application integration to support service delivery * Service-based architectures and their underlying technologies * Availability, performance, and resource management of e-services * Service-oriented application development * Trading Hubs and e-service communities * Standards for e-services * Ontologies and metadata for e-services * E-service applications * Service delivery in mobile and sporadically connected environments * Infrastructure for e-service delivery in environments with limited resources.
