CFP: International Workshop on Grid and Peer-to-Peer based Workflows

Sorry for cross-postings.

International Workshop on 
Grid and Peer-to-Peer based Workflows
http://www.ict.swin.edu.au/conferences/qsic2005/WorkflowWorkshop
One day workshop to be held in conjunction with the 5th International Conference
on Quality Software <http://www.ict.swin.edu.au/conferences/qsic2005> ,
September 19th-21st 2005, Melbourne, Australia

Call for Papers
Workflow research has been conducted for many years, particularly in the
client-server based context. Recently, the research endeavour has started to
shift to the grid and peer-to-peer based paradigms. Many e-science and complex
e-business applications require the creation of a collaborative and/or
decentralised workflow management system as part of their sophisticated problem
solving processes.
The objective of the International Workshop on Grid and Peer-to-Peer based
Workflows is to bring together researchers and practitioners from academia,
industry and governments to report advances in grid and peer-to-peer based
workflow research, instead of the so called traditional client-server based
counterpart. The workshop welcomes the contribution of all aspects of research
relevant to grid and peer-to-peer based workflows. The aspects may include, but
not limited to, the following:
 	Grid workflow API and graphical user interface	
 	Grid workflow execution engine	
 	Grid workflow verification and validation	
 	Specialised tools for managing grid workflow	
 	Peer-to-peer based workflow management	
 	Peer-to-peer based grid workflow	
 	Security control in grid and peer-to-peer based workflow	
 	Simulation environments for grid and peer-to-peer based workflow	
Submission Requirements
Submitted papers must be written in English and not published or submitted
elsewhere. All submissions will be fully reviewed by at least two reviewers and
will be judged on the basis of originality, contribution, technical and
presentation quality, and relevance to the workshop. Submission guidelines are
the same as QSIC2005. Please refer to the QSIC2005 Web site for paper submission
details.
Publication of Papers
All accepted papers will appear in the QSIC2005 conference proceedings to be
published by the IEEE Computer Society. Authors of accepted papers must register
for the QSIC2005 conference.
