2nd international workshop on real-time service-oriented architecture and applications (RTSOAA 2009)

Tue, 06 Jan 2009 08:00:00 +0100

>>>>>>>>>> RTSOAA 2009 Call For Papers <<<<<<<<<<

The Second International Workshop On

Real-Time Service-Oriented Architecture and Applications (RTSOAA 2009)
http://conferences.computer.org/compsac/2009/workshops/RTSOAA2009.html

In Conjunction with IEEE COMPSAC 2009, Seattle, Washington, July 20 - July 24, 2009
http://conferences.computer.org/compsac/2009/

Theme of the Workshop
-----------------------------------
As the paradigm service-oriented computing gains more prominence in the development of systems and commercial applications, the capability of guaranteeing service timeliness is becoming a critical feature that elevates an enterprise to the next level. A real-time business can provide a better quality of service omparing with its peers) by shortening the latencies of data, analysis, decision and execution. As such, real time service-oriented architecture and application (RTSOAA) evolve the traditional service-oriented computing approach to the next level of excellence.

RTSOAA presents a new set of emerging issues and challenges that are expected to be identified, resolved by the service-oriented computing community. These include (1) Scientific and engineering approaches to meet timing constraints and to select services and resources for optimizing the tradeoff between cost and efficiency. (2) Technical and managerial issues for RTSOAA: modeling, infrastructure composition, coordination, planning and scheduling, choreography, deployment, configuration, monitoring and control, and governance. (3) RTSOAA platforms and infrastructure for supporting large-scale application domains such as Healthcare, Cyber-Physical Systems, Green Computing, and Cloud Computing.

This workshop is intended to provide an effective forum for researchers and industry practitioners to exchange innovative ideas and state-of-the-art research, share experiences and lessons learned from academic research projects as well as real world projects, and discuss issues, challenges, needs, and solutions in Real-Time Service-Oriented Architecture and Applications.

Scope of the Workshop
---------------------
RTSOAA signifies an interdisciplinary area that covers disciplines such as real-time systems, service-oriented architecture, software engineering, decision technology, database management and so on. RTSOAA 2009 welcomes the submission of papers from researchers and practitioners in the subjects related, but not limited to:

1. Enabling Technologies for RTSOAA

'Enterprise Systems Governance'

(part of the 'Enterprise Systems (SIG EntSys)' track)

AMCIS - Americas Conference on Information Systems
San Francisco, USA, August 6-9, 2009
http://www.amcis2009.org

Enterprise Systems (ES) are typically understood as bundles of technology and business knowledge which integrate all facets of the enterprise to support operations and management holistically. Being off-the-shelf software ES have to be adapted to the user's organization. With the recent trend to offer ES based on the principles of a service-oriented architecture (SOA), this adaptation faces a paradigmatically different set of challenges. The boundaries of SOA-based ES continuously dissolve and services are invoked across enterprises. Service calls are nested within processes which also often transcend the boundaries of a single organization, leading to so-called cross-organizational business processes.
Diligent governance has been recognized in recent years as a major requirement for successful adaptation and operation of an SOA, especially for large ES. Governance in this changing world of service-enabled ES needs to encompass guidelines and rules which can be adopted and realized by the affected management processes. Governance must focus on the adoption and operation of an SOA as part of the enterprise architecture of a company. It must provide guidelines and mechanisms to ensure the integrity of an SOA and its adaptability to business and administration processes. New challenges emerge, e.g. through a change in roles and responsibilities, service lifecycles, standards, and finance. In order to provide homogenization of these issues, new governance approaches and corresponding applications have to be developed. But in order to be effective, the central challenge is to guarantee compliance to legal, technical as well as internal regulations.
This mini-track deals with the application and support of governance in service-enabled Enterprise Systems. It welcomes papers from academia as well as practice.

Best papers will be invited to submit an extended version to AIS Transactions on Enterprise Systems.

Suggested Topics:
* Governance approaches for SOA architectures and enterprise services
