Net.ObjectDays 2005 Ð Call for Papers

Erfurt, Germany, September 19-22
www.netobjectdays.org


Net.ObjectDays is one of the major international conferences on
object-oriented and Internet-based technologies, concepts, and applications.
Based on its strong focus on research and innovation, Net.ObjectDays aims at
bringing together leading researchers from academia and system architects,
developers, and customers from industry and administration.

Recent developments in Information and Communication Technologies have
substantially changed the nature of global relationships, sources of
competitive advantage, and opportunities for economic and social
development. These changes pose increasingly complex challenges to the
computer science community in general and the software community in
particular. Self-adaptation, self-management, and self-healing are key
features in a new software landscape that aims on providing flexible
solutions to solve one-of-a-kind problems in an adequate, reliable and
cost-effective way.

Given this background, the focus of Net.ObjectDays 2005 is on methods,
models, languages, and tools for efficient, reliable and adaptive
composition of software artefacts to provide a scientific and technological
foundation allowing for new differentiators such as on-demand computing,
situation-aware services, attentive user interfaces.


The topics of the conference include but are not limited to:

  - Object-oriented concepts, languages and technologies
  - Aspect-oriented software development
  - Adaptive and reflective languages and systems
  - Domain-oriented programming
  - Generative programming

  - Novel Web applications and interface
  - Service specification and composition
  - Process modelling and execution
  - Grid services infrastructure
  - Autonomic and on-demand computing
  - Object-oriented and peer-to-peer middleware

  - Architecture-centric development
  - Dynamic software evolution
  - Software maintenance and reengineering
  - Component-based approaches
  - Domain engineering and software product lines

We invite original contributions from the above-mentioned areas that neither
have been published previously nor are under review by other refereed events
or publications. Proceedings of Net.ObjectDays 2005 will be published as
Springer LNCS Lecture Notes in Computer Science.

Papers will be submitted electronically at

  www.dcl.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/node2005

in PDF format. Papers must not exceed 16 pages and should be formatted
according to the author instructions of Springer-Verlag to be found at

  www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html

All submissions have to be in English. The title page must contain a short
abstract and a classification of the topics covered, preferably based on the
ones listed above. The paper must clearly state the problem being addressed,
the goal of the work, the results achieved, and the relation to previous
work.
