The Grid has emerged as a global platform to support on-demand virtual organizations for coordinated
sharing of distributed data, applications and processes. Service-orientation of the Grid also makes it a
promising platform for seamless and dynamic development, integration and deployment of service-oriented
applications. The application components can be discovered, composed and delivered within a Grid of
services, which are loosely coupled to create dynamic business processes and agile applications spanning
organizations and computing platforms. The technologies contributing to such Grids of services include
Service-Oriented Computing, Agent Technology, Semantic Web, Grid Computing, Software Engineering, and
Business Process Technology.
The GSEM 2007 conference aims at presenting and discussing the impact of the latest theoretical and
practical results
from the above-mentioned technological and research areas on the engineering and management of Grid
services and
service-oriented applications.
The conference provides a platform for bringing together researchers and
practitioners from diverse fields and interests, and those looking for new
business and research cooperation opportunities in the above areas. Building on the three successful
predecessors in 2004, 2005, and 2006, GSEM 2007 takes place on September 25, 2007 in Leipzig in the context of SABRE 2007.
SABRE (Software Agents and Services for Business, Research, and E-Sciences) is
the umbrella for a set of conferences – including CEEMAS (International Central and
Eastern European Conference on Multi-Agent Systems); GSEM (International Conference
on Grid Service Engineering and Management); MAGS*BIOMED 2007 (International
Workshop on Multi-Agent and Grid Systems for Medicine, Computational Biology, and
Bioinformatics); POSE (Process-Oriented Software Engineering); and SOAS (International
Conference on Self-Organization and Adaptation of Multi-Agent and Grid Systems) –
providing ample coverage of agent technologies; autonomic computing; self-*; and
process modelling, as well as the intersections of these research areas.

service engineering and management, including but not limited to:
- Modeling, description and discovery of services on the Grid
- Deployment, packaging, and distribution of Grid services
- Grid service architectures, infrastructures and deployment environments
- Software engineering for Grid service creation, development, and generation
- Service provisioning and Quality of Service for Grid services
- Workflow planning and composition for Grid services
- Service level agreement negotiation and contracting
- Adaptive management, coordination, monitoring and control of Grid services and applications
- Formation and management of virtual organizations
- Intelligent services and Grid service agents
- Security, performance and reliability engineering in Service Grids
- Testing and benchmarking of Grid Services
- Grid service business models and applications
- Standardization aspects

We invite original research papers, work-in-progress
reports and industrial experiences describing advances in the above areas, that have not been published
previously,
nor already submitted to other conferences in parallel with this conference. Full papers must not exceed 15
pages
and follow the author instructions of Springer-Verlag that can be found at www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html Information
for LNCS Authors > Proceedings and Other Multiauthor Volumes and select the software package of your
choice. All papers must be in Adobe portable document format (PDF). The paper should
have a cover page, which includes a 200-word abstract, a list of keywords, and author's e-mail address.
Authors should submit a full paper via electronic submission. All
papers submitted for GSEM 2007 will be peer-reviewed and similarly
to the previous years, accepted papers are planned to be published in a special proceedings by Springer
Verlag subject to the quality of volume requirements. A selection of high quality papers will be
invited to submit extended and enhanced versions of their papers to a special issue of a major international
journal. |
