CALL FOR PAPERS
The 8th International Workshop on
SERVICE-ORIENTED COMPUTING: AGENTS, SEMANTICS, AND ENGINEERING (SOCASE)
to be held at the 9th International Joint Conference on AUTONOMOUS AGENTS AND
MULTIAGENT SYSTEMS (AAMAS-2009) Toronto Canada
IMPORTANT DATES
Please realize that we had to shorten the submission deadline by a week. For those who cannot make it till the 28 February we will still accept the paper till 7 March as long as we are informed about the possible paper submission till 28 February. The problem is that the AAMAS organizers need the final version of the papers by 28 February. Moreover, the deadline for early registration will end on 12 March. We will try our best to inform you about the outcome of our review process by 11 March but cannot guarantee that, especially not if we get the paper pretty late. Thus, be prepared to have to pay a slightly higher fee if you don't want to register for the workshop and AAMAS without knowing the result of the review process for your paper. Also, make sure that you can revise your paper till 28 March. This deadline cannot be extended any further.

DESCRIPTION
The purpose of this workshop is to present and discuss the recent significant developments at the intersections of Multi-agent Systems, Semantic Technology, and Service-oriented Computing, and to promote cross-fertilization of techniques. In particular, the workshop aims at identifying techniques from Multi-agent System and Semantic Technology research that will have the greatest impact on automating service-oriented application construction and management, focusing on critical challenges such as service quality assurance, reliability, and adaptability.
The Service-Oriented Computing: Agents, Semantics, and Engineering (SOCASE) workshop continues the theme of the previous SOCASE workshops successfully held at AAMAS’09, AAMAS’08 and AAMAS’07, the SOCABE workshops held at AAMAS’06, AAMAS’05 and the WSABE workshops held at AAMAS’04 and AAMAS’03, with an expanded theme reflecting the wide spectrum of issues of the cross section between agent-based and service-oriented paradigms.
TOPICS
We invite papers on all aspects relating to the overlap of Agent Technology, Semantic Web Services, and Service-oriented Computing. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Agent-oriented architectures, frameworks, and infrastructures for distributed service-oriented software and Semantic Web systems
* Agent-oriented modeling and design methods and tools for service-oriented software and
Semantic Web development
* Web services and Semantic Web technologies and standards for multi-agent system design, development, and integration
* Agent-enabled adaptation, evolution, and optimization of services and processes
* Agent-based service description, advertisement, matchmaking, discovery, and brokering
* Agent-based service composition, orchestration, and choreography
* Agent-based monitoring and exception-handling for service execution and delivery
* Agent-based negotiation and management of Quality of Service and Service Level Agreements
* Deployment and distribution of agent-based service systems and service-oriented agent systems
* Agent-based service business models, application scenarios and demos (e.g. in e-Business, e-Science, Enterprise
* Ontology matching for service discovery, negotiation, orchestration, composition, and execution
* Ontology generation, hearing and reasoning, and ontology-oriented dynamic mediation among agents
SUBMISSION and PUBLICATION
Submission is to be done electronically. The detailed instructions are provided at the SOCASE'10 web page https://www.easychair.org/login.cgi?conf=socase10.
Contact Zakaria Maamar (Zakaria.Maamar@zu.ac.ae) for help if required.
Submitted papers have a page limit of 15 pages and should be formatted according to LNCS specification. Authors should submit the manuscript in PDF format. Instructions and templates can be found at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html.
Submissions will be peer-reviewed by three reviewers per paper. Selection criteria will include:
Relevance, significance, impact, originality, technical soundness, quality of presentation. Some preference may also be given to papers which address emergent trends or important common themes, or which enhance balance of workshop topics. Since this is associated with the AAMAS conference, accepted papers must be of real relevance to the multi-agent research community. Accepted papers will be published in the workshop proceedings. Similarly to the previous years the SOCASE 2010 post-proceedings will be published with Springer’s LNCS, subject to an appropriate number and quality of submissions. A selection of best papers will also be invited to submit extended and enhanced versions of the papers to a special issue of a major international journal.
