CALL FOR PAPERS

2nd INT. WORKSHOP ON ADAPTIVE SERVICES FOR THE FUTURE INTERNET

WAS4FI 2012

Held in conjunction with ESOCC 2012

September 19, 2012, Bertinoro, Italy

Paper Submission Due: June 15, 2012

GOALS

=====

Future Internet has emerged as a new initiative topave anovel 
infrastructure

linked to objects and things of the real world to meet the changing 
global needs

of business and society.

Technologiessuch asthosebased on XML and RDF or OWL todescribedata and

semanticinformation,SOAP or RESTtodefineprotocols and BPEL or BPMNto

orchestratebusinessprocesses arebeing increasinglyused to specify Future

Internet services in a standardized manner,whichwill allow software and 
data

nolongertobestoredand distributed onindividualcomputers.Instead,

multitenancywillenable their remote access asSoftware as a Service (SaaS),

evenbyperformingtheintegration intolargernetworksofcommunicating

software(e.g.,a mashup or a plug-into aCloud platform).Future Internet

applicationswill have tosupport theinteroperabilitybetweenmany diverse

stakeholders by governing the convergence and life-cycle of Internet of 
Contents

(IoC),Services (IoS),Things (IoT),and Networks (IoN).Theseapplications

should handle dynamic and continuous changes:for instance, in the 
provisioning

of services,availability ofthingsandcontents,connectivity of networks,

diversity of user devices and so on and so forth.

There is a need for both researchers and practitioners to develop 
platforms made

up of adaptive Future Internetapplications.In this sense,the emergence and

consolidationofService-OrientedArchitectures(SOA),Cloud Computingand

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) rise benefits,such as flexibility, 
scalability,

security, interoperability,and adaptability, for building these 
applications.

Although there already are emerging solutions to host software services 
and data

onremotecomputersandcreatepublicsensornetworksbyusingthese

technologies; the mentioned solutions employ simple technical approaches 
related

to replication strategies to ensure availability and to achieve a 
load-balancing

scalability.

The firstedition of WAS4FI 2011 was held in conjunction with ServiceWave 
2011,

in Poznan,Poland,on 28th October 2011.In this secondedition,the aim of

WAS4FIisdrawingtogether the community inESOCC interestedinaddressing

different aspects related to adaptive Future Internet 
applications,emphasizing

the importance of governingthe convergence of contents,services,things and

networks in order to achieve efficient,scalable, secure and adaptive 
platforms

tobuildFutureInternetapplications.Inthisworkshop,wecoverthe

foundations of the aforementioned technologies as well as new emerging 
proposals

with a relevant potential for Future Internet services. To promote 
collaboration

sessionscomplementedby discussionsaboutAdaptive Servicesin theFuture

Internet Applications.

TOPICS

======

WAS4FIencouragesamultidisciplinaryperspectiveandwelcomes papers that
