Call For Contribution
for the
Web Services Challenge-06
in conjunction with
The IEEE International Conference on e-Technology, e-Commerce, and e-
Services (EEE-06)
and the IEEE International Conference on Electronic Commerce (CEC-06)
June 26-29, 2006, San Francisco, California
Overview
=========
The 2006 Web Services Challenge is co-located with the Conference on
Electronic
Commerce (CEC) and the Conference on Enterprise Computing, E-Commerce and
E-Services (EEE). This third competition extends the original criteria of
the
first two competitions which focused on service discovery and service
composition based on syntactic matching of WSDL part names. This year, the
competition will also include semantic aspects. Since formalisms for
representing semantics of services are quite complex and several different
proposals/approaches exist, this competition adheres to a traditional
approach. The organizers decided to include the computational complexity
of semantics in the competition by leveraging classical XML standards.
Input/Output messages of the service descriptions will be semantically
linked via inheritance relationships as implemented using complex XML
Schema
types. The participants will be required to determine relations between
different types during service discovery and service composition.
The WS-Challenge (http://insel.flp.cs.tu-berlin.de/wsc06/) invites the
participation of students and researchers addressing the different
challenges
stated in the Call for Participation and described in more detail in the
technical description area. The competition entails the submission of a 2
page description of the approach to be submitted in early 2006. After a
peer-review process, the technical descriptions will be included in the
workshop proceedings of the joint conference. As a next step later in the
spring of 2006, the participants will be required to provide a preliminary
version of their software for a pre-competition evaluation stage. The
pre-competition evaluation is required in order for teams to participate
in the challenge taking place during the conference.
Competition details are available at
http://insel.flp.cs.tu-berlin.de/wsc06/
Important Dates:
================
* March 15th, 2006 Submission of Technical Description
(2 pages, formatting conforming to IEEE CS Press Proceedings)
* March 31st, 2006 Notification of Acceptance of Technical Description
* April 15th, 2006 Final Version of Technical Description
* May 15th, 2006 Pre-Evaluation of Matchmaking Software
* June 26th-29th, 2006 Competition on Conference Site

IN COOPERATION WITH:
ACM SIGSAC
IEEE
DFG (German Research Foundation)
GI (German Society for Computer Science)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONFERENCE SCOPE:
Protecting information and communication systems and services from
malicious use is essential for their deployment and acceptance. In addition
to applying techniques from traditional security research and security
engineering, it is necessary to take into account the vulnerabilities
originating from increased mobility at application level and the integration
of security requirements into business processes. ETRICS solicits research
contributions focusing on emerging trends in security and privacy.
Submissions may present foundational research in security and privacy,
report experiences from novel applications of security technologies, as well
as discuss their changing impact on society and economy.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
TOPICS of interest include but are not limited to:
- Access control and secure audit
- Analysis of security protocols
- Anonymity services
- Cryptographic primitives
- Electronic payment systems
- Enforcement of security policies
- Language-based security
- Privacy and identity management
- Secure mobile code
- Secure operating systems
- Security requirements engineering
- Security verification
- Vulnerability and threat analysis
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
PAPER SUBMISSION:
Papers submitted to ETRICS will be peer-reviewed and accepted papers will
be published in a volume of Springers Lecture Notes in Computer Science.
Submissions should clearly state the research contribution, their relevance
to the conference theme, as well as their relation to prior research.
Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished research papers limited
to 15 pages following Springers guidelines. Papers must be submitted
electronically in PDF format through the online submission system at
http://www.etrics.org/PC/ and be received by January 6, 2006. Authors of
accepted papers must sign a copyright statement and guarantee that their
paper will be presented at the conference.
