CALL FOR ATC 2010 PAPERS

*******************************************************************


The 7th International Conference on

Autonomic and Trusted Computing (ATC 2010)

- Bring Safe, Self-x and Organic Computing Systems into Reality -


[1]http://www.nwpu.edu.cn/atc2010/

Technically Sponsored by IEEE CS TCFC

Xian, China, 26-29 October, 2010

Co-located with UIC 2010 ([2]http://www.nwpu.edu.cn/uic2010/)


*******************************************************************

Computing systems including hardware, software, communication, and
networks are growing towards an ever increasing scale and
heterogeneity, becoming overly complex. Such complexity is getting
even more critical with the ubiquitous permeation of embedded devices
and other pervasive systems. To cope with the growing and ubiquitous
complexity, Autonomic Computing (AC) focuses on self-manageable
computing and communication systems that exhibit self-awareness,
self-configuration, self-optimization, self-healing, self-protection
and other self-x operations to the maximum extent possible without
human intervention or guidance. Organic Computing (OC) additionally
addresses adaptivity, robustness, and controlled emergence as well as
nature-inspired concepts for self-organization.


Any autonomic or organic system must be trustworthy to avoid the risk
of losing control and retain confidence that the system will not fail.
Trust and/or distrust relationships in the Internet and in pervasive
infrastructures are key factors to enable dynamic interaction and
cooperation of various users, systems, and services.
Trusted/Trustworthy Computing (TC) aims at making computing and
communication systems as well as services available, predictable,
traceable, controllable, assessable, sustainable, dependable,
persistable, security/privacy protectable, etc.


A series of grand challenges exists to achieve practical autonomic or
organic systems with truly trustworthy services. Started in 2005, the
series of ATC conferences has been held at Nagasaki, Vienna, Three
Gorges (China), Hong Kong, Oslo and Brisbane. ATC 2010 will include a
highly selective program of technical papers, accompanied by
workshops, panel discussions and keynote speeches. Established as a
premier venue in the area of autonomic and trusted computing, ATC 2010
will offer a forum for researchers to exchange ideas and experiences
in the most innovative research and development in these challenging
areas and includes all technical aspects related to autonomic/organic
computing (AC/OC) and trusted computing (TC). Topics include but are
not limited to the following:


- AC/OC Theory and Models:Models, negotiation, cooperation,
competition,self-organization, emergence, verification etc.

- AC/OC Architectures and Systems:Autonomic elements & their
relationship, frameworks,middleware, observer/controller
architectures, etc.

- AC/OC Components and Modules:Multi-core CPU, memory, storage,
database, device,server, proxy, software, OS, I/O, etc.

- AC/OC Communication and Services:Networks, self-organized net, web
service, P2P, grid,EaaS, could, semantics, agent, transaction, etc.

- AC/OC Tools and Interfaces:Tools/interfaces for AC/OC system
development,test, monitoring, assessment, supervision, etc.

- Trust Models and Specifications:Models and semantics of trust,
distrust, mistrust,over-trust, cheat, risk, reputation, reliability,
etc.

- Trust-related Security and Privacy:Trust-related secure
architecture, framework, policy,intrusion detection/awareness,
protocols, etc.

- Trusted Reliable and Dependable Systems: Fault-tolerant systems,
hardware redundancy,robustness, survivable systems, failure recovery,
etc.

- Trustworthy Services and Applications:Trustworthy
Internet/web/P2P/grid/cloud services,secured mobile services, novel
applications, etc.

- Trust Standards and Non-Technical Issues: Trust standards and issues
related to personality,ethics, sociology, culture, psychology,
economy, etc.
