 About the Conference

 The DAIS conference series addresses all aspects of distributed 
 applications, including their architecture, design, implementation and 
 operation, the supporting middleware, appropriate software engineering 
 methodologies and tools, as well as experimental studies and practice 
 reports.

 DAIS'12 is the 12th event in a series of successful international 
 conferences started in 1997. It will provide a forum for researchers, 
 application and platform service vendors, and users, to discuss and 
 learn about new approaches, trends, concepts and experiences in the 
 fields of distributed computing.

 Important Dates

 * Abstract submission: February 20, 2012 (optional)
 * Paper submission: February 27, 2012 (extended)
 * Author notification: March 26, 2012
 * Camera-ready version: April 9, 2012
 * Conferences: June 13-15, 2012
 * Workshops: June 16, 2012

 Submission and Publication

 DAIS'12 seeks:
 * Full research papers in no more than 14 pages.
 * Full experimental and evaluation studies, case studies, and practice 
 reports in no more than 14 pages.
 * Work-in-progress papers, describing ongoing work and interim results, 
 in no more than 6 pages.

 Papers will be published by Springer-Verlag in the LNCS series.

 All papers must be original, unpublished, and not submitted for 
 publication elsewhere. Contributions should be submitted electronically 
 as PDF, using the SPRINGER LNCS style. Each paper will undergo a 
 thorough process of review. Proceedings will be made available at the 
 conference. Submission implies that at least one author will register 
 and attend the conference if the paper is accepted.

 Topics of Interest

 DAIS'12 solicits high quality papers reporting research results and/or 
 experience reports in the area of distributed applications and 
 interoperable systems. Submissions will be judged on their originality, 
 significance, clarity, relevance, and correctness. DAIS'12 conference 
 topics include, but are not limited to:

 * Novel and innovative applications and systems: mobile and 
 context-aware applications, ubiquitous and pervasive computing, Internet 
 of services, Internet of things, service-oriented computing, autonomous 
 and self-adaptive systems, cloud computing, peer to peer systems, sensor 
 and ad-hoc networks, systems of systems, collaborative intelligent 
 devices, social networks, apps for smartphones and pad-computers.

 * Architectures, architectural styles, middleware, platforms, 
 distributed computing infrastructures, application level protocols, and 
 devices (e.g., smartphones) supporting distributed applications.

 * Properties and design goals: Security, trust, privacy, dependability, 
 resilience, safety, performance, scalability, usability, efficiency, 
 sustainability, green computing, interoperability, autonomy, self-* 
 properties.

 * Engineering and tools: modeling, model-driven architecture, 
 domain-specific languages, design, patterns, development, deployment, 
 validation, testing, benchmarking, operation, management, adaptation, 
 evolution.

 * Challenges: change, evolution, complexity, large and ultra large 
 scale, dynamism, mobility, heterogeneity.
