The 4th International Workshop on Workflow Management in
Service and Cloud Computing (WMSC2012)
1-3 November 2012,
Xiangtan, China http://kpnm.hnust.cn/confs/wmsc2012 in conjunction with the International Conference on
Cloud and Green Computing (CGC2012) Supported
by IEEE TCSC Technical Area on Workflow Management in Scalable Computing
Environments As emerging paradigms, service
and cloud computing enable resource to be employed in utility-based fashion.
Workflow automating business and scientific processing in step by step can be
executed in service and cloud computing environments in the benefit of
deploying resources for execution in that fashion. This workshop following
its successful edition of WMSC2011 aims to provide a forum for researchers,
practitioners and developers from different background areas such as service
computing, cloud computing and workflow area to exchange the latest
experience, research ideas and synergic research and development on
fundamental issues and applications about workflow management in service and
cloud computing environments. The workshop solicits high quality research
results in all related areas. Topics The objective of the workshop
is to invite authors to submit original manuscripts that demonstrate and
explore current advances in all aspects of workflow management in service and
cloud computing environments. The workshop solicits novel papers on a broad
range of topics, including but not limited to: · Service based workflow modelling · Service
Delivery and Composition · Service
Level Agreements (SLAs) Negotiation, Automation and Orchestration · Quality
of Services for workflow execution · Workflow verification and validation · Services
Repository and Registry · Service
Security, Privacy and Trust for workflow modelling and execution · Novel
architectural models for cloud computing in support of workflow execution · Cloud workflow architecture · Cloud
resource management · Scientific
computing in the cloud · Programming
models for cloud computing · Access control and authorisation for workflow
execution · Workflow scheduling in cloud computing · Utility
models and service pricing · Service enabled workflow applications · Privacy, security, risk and trust issues in cloud
computing · Social issues in cloud computing · Green cloud computing · Green ICT and smart metering · Cloud workflow applications Submission Requirements Please submit your paper(s) in PDF file at the WMSC2012 submission site: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wmsc2012. Papers should be limited up to 8 pages in IEEE format. All papers will be peer reviewed by two or three
pc members. Submitting a paper to the workshop
means that if the paper is accepted, at least one author should register to CGC2012 and attend the conference to present the paper.
Publication of Papers All accepted papers will appear
in the proceedings published by IEEE Computer Society (EI indexed). Selected
papers will be invited to special issues of CGC2012 in Concurrency and Computation: Practice and Experience; Future Generation Computer Systems; and International Journal of High Performance Computer Applications. Important Dates Deadline for Paper
