of innovative applications that effectively use distributed resources
and adapt to a wide range of heterogeneity and dynamics in space and
time. This includes development, deployment, management and evaluations
of large scale applications in science, engineering, medicine, business,
economics, education, and other disciplines, on Grids and other
distributed heterogeneous and dynamic computing environments. Issues
related to irregularity of applications and algorithms in space and
time, variability in programming environments, heterogeneity of software
and hardware platforms, dynamics, ad hoc behaviors and unreliability of
execution environments, etc., in the context of these applications are
of particular interest.

CALL FOR PAPERS
First International Workshop on Incentive Based Computing (IBC'05)
September 19, 2005, Compiegne, France
http://ibc05.cs.wayne.edu/
**********************************************************************
IBC'05 will be held in conjunction with the 2005 IEEE/WIC/ACM
International Joint Conference on Web Intelligence and Intelligent

Deadline for paper submission July 15, 2005
Notification of acceptance August 7, 2005
Deadline for camera-ready papers August 15, 2005
DESCRIPTION:
============
The emergence of the Internet as a global platform for computation
and communication has sparked the development and deployment of
large-scale open distributed systems. The scale of such systems
entails a large and heterogeneous set of users with often divergent
motives. At the same time, open systems give users increased power
to operate in pursuit of local interests, even at the expense of
global system objectives. To retain the fast pace of innovation
facilitated by open systems while ensuring their long-term reliability
and scalability, it is essential that we design efficient protocols
that are robust in the presence of self-interested agents. This need
has motivated the recent interest in the study of incentives in many
areas of distributed computing such as: resource allocation in
computational grids, peer-to-peer systems, task scheduling, congestion
control, routing and multi-agent systems. Making incentives an explicit
aspect of system design represents a revolutionary change in computer
science. The great challenge in this area is to design incentive
compatible protocols that are computationally tractable and consistent
with other application requirements. Research in this area is often
cross-disciplinary, borrowing knowledge from economics, computer
science, computer engineering and game theory.
Although the number of research projects and publications dealing with
incentives has grown in recent years, there are still very few events
dedicated exclusively to this important topic. IBC'05 represents a timely
opportunity to bring together a community of researchers involved in
economics, game theory and computing. It will allow researchers to present
current and on-going work as well as to exchange research ideas and
future directions in the emerging field of incentive based computing.
TOPICS OF INTEREST include, but are not limited to:
===================================================
* Algorithmic Mechanism Design
* Incentives in Grids
* Incentives in Peer-to-peer Systems
* Incentives in Networks
* Incentives in Multi-Agent Systems
* Incentive based resource allocation
* Economic models in distributed computing
* Incentive engineering
* Game theoretic modeling
* Resource allocation games
* Strategyproof computing
* Market-based protocols
PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION
================================
All submitted papers will be evaluated on relevance, technical quality,
and exposition. Papers must not have appeared before in a journal or
conference with published proceedings, nor may they be under review
or submitted to another conference or workshop. All accepted papers
will be published in the workshop proceedings as regular papers.
Submitted papers should be limited to 10 pages formatted using the
IEEE Computer Society style:

The 2005 High Availability and Performance Computing
Workshop
http://xcr.cenit.latech.edu/hapcw2005
In conjunction with LACSI2005, October 11, 2005, Santa Fe, New
Mexico
____________________________________________________________________________
We realize that many organizations require tremendous computing power to
solve their important problems such as Energy, Climate, Fusion, Biology, and
Nanotechnology. These non-trivial problems are usually characterized by
massive and long running applications. Therefore, Reliability, Availability
and Serviceability (RAS) management will become an increasingly paramount
aspect in many computing environments. RAS management goals are to maximize
uptime and therefore undoubtedly complement High End Computing (HEC)
objectives by preventing performance degradation and spectrum availability.
High Availability (HA) Computing has always played a critical role in
commercial mission critical applications. Likewise, High Performance
Computing (HPC) has equally been a significant enabler of the R&D community
because their scientific discoveries. Serviceability aims toward effective
means by which corrective and preventive maintenance can be performed on a
system. Higher serviceability improves availability and helps retaining
quality, performance and continuity of services at expected levels.
Together, the combination of HA, Serviceability, and HPC will clearly lead
to even more benefits to critical shared major HEC resource environments.
Since 2003, we have had two consecutive successful workshops (HAPCW2003 and
HAPCW2004). Our 2004 attendant record went up somewhere between 30 and 40%.
This year is the follow-up to last year's venue, a full-day High
Availability and Performance Computing Workshop (HAPCW) at LACSI 2005.
Topics of interest to HAPCW include but are not limited to:
.. High Availability (Reliability) and Performance Computing.
.. Serviceability in Cluster, High-End and Grid Computing
.. Architecture and Tools supporting HAPC.
.. High Availability Computing
.. Experience creating HPAC environment and current status.
.. Fault Prevention, Detection and Recovery, Fault Tolerance and
Autonomic Computing in HPC and HEC.
.. Configuration, Resource and Fault Management
.. Distributed Security in Cluster, HPC and High-End computing.
.. Mission Critical Application in HPC environments.

CALL FOR PAPERS
Journal of Grid Computing
Special issue on
Global and Peer-to-Peer Computing
Important Dates:
September 1, 2005: Full paper due
October 21, 2005: Notification of acceptance
Q1-2006: Expected date of publication.
============================================================================
Topics of the Special Issue:
Global Computing systems (GC), Desktop Grids (DG) and Peer-to-Peer systems
(P2P) aim to harness Internet- connected resources at a global scale. These
platforms can be built in a pre-defined, stable, organized fashion (more
like today's
Grids) or can be self-organizing, ad-hoc, decentralized, like in
Peer-to-Peer
systems.
Supporting computation on such systems raises a novel set of questions.
Because of size, autonomy and the high volatility of their resources, these
platforms
provide the opportunity to revisit major fields of distributed computing:
protocols,
infrastructures, security, fault tolerance, scheduling, performance,
services, applications, incentives for cooperation, etc. Moreover, new
issues
concerning installation, utilization, flexibility and scalability become
more relevant
than ever.
This special issue of the Journal of Grid Computing is dedicated to recent
advances in Global and Peer-to-Peer computing and the relevant lessons to
Grids.

Track on Agents, Interactions, Mobility, and Systems (AIMS)
-----------------------------------------------------------
to take place during
The 21st ACM Symposium on Applied Computing (SAC 2006)
April 23 - 27, 2006, Dijon, France
http://www.ihmc.us/aims2006
SAC?6
------
For the past twenty years, the ACM Symposium on Applied Computing
has been a primary gathering forum for applied computer scientists,
computer engineers, software engineers, and application developers
from around the world. SAC 2006 is sponsored by the ACM Special
Interest Group on Applied Computing, and is hosted by the University
of Bourgogne, Dijon, France.
Agents, Interactions, Mobility, and Systems Track
-------------------------------------------------
An agent is a computational entity that interacts with one or more
counterparts or real-world systems. Unlike traditional computer
programs, agents exhibit the following capabilities to various
degrees: (a) autonomy, (b) reactiveness, (c) pro-activeness, and
(d) social abilities. An agent may be stationary or mobile. In the
latter case the agent is able to migrate along with its associated
data, state, and logic to another host to interact with local
resources and other agents to perform a given task. Several agents
can collectively form a multi-agent system with decentralized data
and a varying degree of global system control (potentially none at
all). In this track we are interested in the combined issues of
agent-based and multi-agent systems.
Areas of interest
-----------------
We are interested in the following topic areas (although this list
should not be treated as exclusive):
* niche applications such as e-commerce, mobile business applications,
robotics, defense, manufacturing, and aerospace
* system architectures and software engineering
* languages and protocols for communication and coordination
* mobile agent systems security, fault tolerance and reliability
* programming language paradigms and constructs for design,
implementation, and evaluation
* agents that use game theory and decision theory
* practical application of autonomy, delegation, and control in
multiagent systems
* applications that demonstrate systematic inter-agent interaction
including issues of sociability, benevolence, preference, power,
trust, teaming, norms, roles, teamwork, etc.
* applications that benefit from features unique to mobile agents
* applications that provide quantitative measurements of mobile
agent performance
* requirements for applications that are currently not satisfied by
mobile agent systems
* designing applications and systems to support interfacing with
agent systems and mobile agents
* integrating mobile agents with existing legacy systems
* applications in distributed sensor networks
* overlapping areas between agents and grid computing
* overlapping areas between agents and web services
* agent-based workflow management systems
It should be stressed that this track appears in the context of the
conference devoted to applied computing. Thus, submissions to this
track should not primarily be theoretical in nature.

Call-For-Papers
Special Issue of the
Journal of Parallel and Distributed Computing (JPDC):
Grids in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology
Bioinformatics is fast emerging as an important discipline for academic
research and industrial application. Research and development in
bioinformatics and computational biology create and develop advanced
information and computational techniques to manage and extract useful
information from the DNA/RNA/protein sequence being generated by high
throughput technologies (e.g. DNA microarrays, DNA sequencers). It is
the comprehensive application of mathematics (e.g., probability and
graph theory), statistics, science (e.g., biochemistry), and computer
science (e.g., computer algorithms and machine learning) to the
understanding of living systems. Those techniques are extremely
computationally or data intensive, providing motivation for using Grids.
Grids are an enabling technology that permit the transparent coupling of
geographically-dispersed resources (machines, networks, data storage,
visualization devices, and scientific instruments) for large-scale
distributed applications. Grids provide several important benefits for
users and applications to share: computing and data storage, knowledge,
instruments, etc).
This special issue of the Journal Parallel and Distributed Computing
(JPDC) is seeking original unpublished research articles that describe
recent advances in using Grids in bioinformatics and computational biology.

Background
----------
Grid computing presents a new trend to distributed and Internet
computing for coordinating large-scale heterogeneous resources sharing
and problem solving in dynamic, multi-institutional virtual
organizations. Grid computing is not only used for distributed
supercomputing and massive data processing, but it is also a common
platform and way for utility and service computing. Grid computing
encompasses more than using mainframes or supercomputers to do
coordinated computing. More and more, personal computers and small
smart devices, ranging from personal digital assistants to unseen
chips in our cars, appliances and telephones, are emerging to be the
supporting force to grid computing. Projecting this trend into the
future, we envision an explosion of interconnected high performance
computers and smart devices that can make our research and daily lives
easier and more productive.
