Call for Papers
(pdf version, text version)
New Deadlines: Acceptance Notification July 23rd
The 2nd IEEE International Workshop on Modelling Autonomic Communications Environments (MACE 2007) will be held from October 29th to 30th, 2007 in San José, California, USA. The workshop will be technically sponsored (confirmation pending) by the IEEE Communications Society Technical Committee on Network Operations and Management (CNOM).
As part of Manweek 2007 MACE will be co-located with four other events : the 10th IFIP/IEEE International Conference on Management of Multimedia and Mobile Networks and Services (MMNS 2007); the 7th IEEE Workshop on IP Operations and Management (IPOM 2007); the 18th IFIP/IEEE International Workshop on Distributed Systems: Operations and Management (DSOM 2007); and the 1st IEEE/IFIP International Workshop on Virtualization Grid Networking and Management (EVGM 2007).
The MACE workshop aims to promote the realisation of Autonomic Communications Environments (ACEs) – service-centric environments exhibiting self-governing behaviour. Within an ACE, services will be created that are self-aware and self-healing. In their deployment, they will be self-adapting, self-optimising and self-configuring; and in operation they will be self-protecting, self-managing and self-composing. These features will enable ACE services to adapt to changing business needs and environmental conditions without manual intervention. Realisation of this vision represents a significant challenge for the networking and computer science research communities, requiring advances in disparate areas ranging, for example, from software modeling to network security, and from machine learning to performance optimisation. MACE 2007 will bring together researchers from academia and industry in a workshop setting in which research challenges can be identified, ideas for potential solutions exchanged, and research results discussed.
Topics of interest for paper submission include, but are not limited to:
SUBMISSION
Paper submissions must present original, unpublished research or experiences. Submission of late-breaking results and work-in-progress reports from ongoing research is encouraged. Papers that are published, or concurrently submitted to another journal, conference, or book should not be submitted. The Proceedings will be published in the Multicon Lecture Notes series. Papers should be formatted according to the LNCS guidelines and should not exceed 15 pages in length. Papers must be submitted in PDF format via .
