Scope
Modern software lives in a concurrent world. The ubiquity of the
Internet allows distributed software components to be composed into
complex networked systems. At the other end of the spectrum, with
multicore processors now the norm, concurrency is frequently necessary
to maximize application performance.
Coordination 2009 seeks high-quality papers on programming languages,
models, and architectures that address the challenge of building
robust distributed and concurrent applications. The conference
focuses on the design and implementation of models that allow
compositional construction of large-scale concurrent and distributed
systems, including both practical and foundational models, runtime
systems, and related verification and analysis techniques.
Topics of Interest
DISTRIBUTED AND CONCURRENT PROGRAMMING MODELS: multicore programming,
stream programming, data parallel programming, event-driven
programming, web programming
FOUNDATIONS OF DISTRIBUTED AND CONCURRENT INTERACTION:
models for processes, service composition and orchestration, workflow
management, data query, tuple spaces
SPECIFICATION, VERIFICATION, AND TYPES: modeling and analysis of types
and properties related to security, dependability, resource
consumption, and component conformance for concurrent and
distributed systems
HIGH-LEVEL OPTIMIZATIONS: program transformations for performance
enhancement, runtime load balancing techniques, static and
dynamic resource management
QUALITY OF SERVICE: fault-tolerant programming models and runtime support,
models with responsiveness guarantees
DISTRIBUTED SOFTWARE MANAGEMENT: component and module systems for
distributed software, dynamic software evolution and update
technologies, configuration and deployment architectures
SYSTEM SUPPORT FOR PROGRAMMING MODELS: P2P frameworks, mobile ad-hoc
networks, sensor networks, publish-subscribe systems, event
processing
CASE STUDIES: application of novel distributed and concurrent
techniques in business process modeling, e-commerce, factory
automation, collaboration, command and control
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Submission Guidelines
The Coordination 2009 conference solicits high quality papers
reporting research results and/or experience reports related to the
topics mentioned above. All papers must be original, unpublished, and
not submitted for publication elsewhere. Contributions should be
submitted electronically as postscript or PDF, using the SPRINGER LNCS
style. Papers should not exceed 15 pages in length. Each paper will
undergo a thorough process of review and the conference proceedings
will be published by Springer-Verlag in the LNCS series. Proceedings
will be made available at the conference.
Selected papers will be invited to a special issue of the journal
Science of Computer Programming
