CALL FOR PAPERS
FIDJI 2004 International Workshop
on scientiFic engIneering of Distributed Java applIcations
November 24-25, 2004
Luxembourg, LUXEMBOURG
http://fidji2004.uni.lu

PURPOSE

FIDJI 2004 is an international forum for researchers and practitioners 
interested in using
the advances in, as well as applications of, software engineering for the development of
reliable distributed systems. Unlike the previous conventions, the 2004 
workshop is not
restricted to "Java-related" technologies. Scientific approaches to 
ensuring reliability
and security of distributed applications as well as rigorous development 
processes supporting
application dependability will be the important themes of this year’s 
gathering, presenting the
participants an excellent chance to report, discuss and disseminate the 
latest research results,
experience and ideas in these areas.

All papers submitted to this workshop will be peer reviewed by at least two members
of the International Program Committee. Acceptance will be based primarily on
originality and contribution.

The proceedings of the workshop will be published in the Springer Verlag 
Lecture
Notes in Computer Science Series 
(http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/index.html).
The Lecture Notes in Computer Science Series are published as printed books and as
full-text electronic versions (see FIDJI 2003 edition at
http://link.springer.de/link/service/series/0558/tocs/t2604.htm).

LOCATION

FIDJI 2004 will be held in Luxembourg 
(http://www.luxembourg.co.uk/nutshell.html)
at the Faculty of Sciences, Technologies and Communications of the 
University of Luxembourg
(see http://www.uni.lu and http://www.ist.lu).

SCOPE

The FIDJI 2004 workshop provides an opportunity for academia to present its current research
and development activities and for industrial contributors to discuss their experience in the
application of development methodologies to building distributed software systems.

The topics of interest in this conference will include, but are not limited to:

     * design of distributed applications
     * development methodologies for software and system engineering
     * UML-based development methodologies
     * development of reliable and secure distributed systems
     * component based development methodologies
     * dependability support during system life cycle
     * fault tolerance refinement, evolution and decomposition
     * atomicity and exception handling in system development
     * software architectures, frameworks and design patterns for 
developing distributed systems
     * integration of formal techniques in the development process
     * formal analysis and grounding of modelling notation and techniques (e.g.,UML, metamodelling)
     * supporting security and dependability requirements of distributed 
application in the development process
     * distributed software inspection
     * refactoring methods
     * industrial and academic case studies
     * development and analysis tools

SUBMISSION OF PAPERS

Submission instructions are available on the workshop web site: 
http://fidji2004.uni.lu.

All submissions should be done electronically in Adobe Acrobat (.pdf), 
Postscript (.ps),
or MSWord (.doc) format. Do not send paper copies. Authors should follow 
the instructions on:
http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html. The page limit for final papers
is ten pages (5 000 words).

Please provide four key words to indicate the subject area of your paper. One of the key words
must be taken from the list of topics provided under scope defined above.

The FIDJI 2004 Secretariat must receive your paper by September 20, 2004. Notification
of acceptance will be sent via e-mail on October 13, 2004. Registration 
payments and final
manuscripts are due by November 1st, 2004. Authors are expected to strictly respect the deadlines
for paper submission and registration. Please note that one of the authors has to present the paper
at the workshop, and that for the final submission one of the authors will need to sign a LNCS copyright
form for the paper (http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/copyright.html). Not meeting these requirements
will result in the exclusion of the paper from the proceedings. Detailed 
instructions for
the final submission will be sent by e-mail. The formatting instructions 
for final manuscripts
must be strictly followed.

Proceedings will be available at the conference and a post-workshop book 
should be published
in the Springer Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Sciences Series.

TUTORIALS

Two tutorials will be integrated in the program. Proposals for half-day 
tutorials
(three hours plus breaks) should be submitted online by September 20th, 
2004. Tutorials are to be
submitted online via web site. A tutorial proposal should clearly indicate the topic, background
knowledge expected of the participants, objectives, time allocations for 
the major course topics,
and the qualifications of the instructor(s).
