IEEE International Symposium on Policies for Distributed Systems and Networks
(POLICY 2010) CALL FOR PAPERS July 21-23 2010 George Mason University, USA http://www.ieee-policy.org The symposium brings together researchers and practitioners working on policy-based systems across a range of application areas including policy-based networking, privacy and security management, storage area networking, and enterprise systems. POLICY 2010 has grown out of a highly successful series of workshops and this is recognized by the elevation of the event to an IEEE symposium. This year's event will have a special focus on policy-driven real-life applications, and we encourage submissions in this area as well as the topics listed below. The symposium will include demonstrations of innovative policy-based systems, and authors are invited to submit demonstration descriptions, as described below. In addition, authors of all accepted papers will be invited to accompany their presentation with an optional demonstration. In addition to the main technical programme, POLICY 2010 will feature a special session devoted to the demonstrations of innovative policy based systems. POLICY 2010 invites novel contributions on all aspects of policy-based management. Papers must describe original work and must not have been accepted or submitted for publication elsewhere. Submitted papers will be evaluated for technical contribution, originality, and significance. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following: - Privacy and Security - Policy Models and Languages - Policy Applications For a complete description of the topics of interest, please see http://www.ieee-policy.org/cfp.html. System demonstration submissions will be evaluated on the basis of their technical merit and novelty. Of particular interest are systems that illustrate research contributions and innovative applications of policy based technologies. Those interested in demonstrating a system / application should submit a description following the instructions in the System Submission Section. Commercial products are eligible, but sales and marketing activities are not appropriate. Important Dates --------------- Abstracts due: February 8 2010 Full Paper submission deadline: February 15 2010 Author notification: April 22 2010 System demonstration submission deadline: April 1 2010 System demonstrator notification: April 15 2010 Camera ready copy due (for both technical papers and demos): May 7 2010 Symposium dates: July 21-23 2010 Paper Submission Information Papers under review elsewhere must NOT be submitted to Policy 2010. The proceedings of the symposium will be published by IEEE Computer Society and submissions must be in IEEE Proceedings format (see http://ieee-formats.notlong.com). Policy 2010 invites contributions in the form of either: - Technical papers (max. length 8 pages). - Short position papers describing preliminary experimental results, experiences with deployed policy systems, new applications or new policy research challenges (max. length 4 pages) - System Demonstration proposal describing the proposed demonstration Descriptions of accepted demonstrations will be included in the workshop proceedings (max. length 2 pages, not including references) We particularly encourage contributions from industry in the form of long or short papers. Sincerely, Marianne Winslett and Ken Moody IEEE POLICY 2010 TPC Co-Chairs |
