Call for Papers

Third Service Level Agreements in Grids Workshop
October 26, 2010
Brussels, Belgium
http://www.sla4d-grid.de/?q=node/30

to be held in conjunction with

The 10th IEEE International Conference on Grid Computing (Grid 2010)
October 25 - 29, 2010
Brussels, Belgium
http://www.grid2010.org/
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


DESCRIPTION

As the Grid evolves to become an infrastructure for providing and consuming
services in research and commercial environments, mechanisms are needed to agree
on the objectives and the quality of such service provision. This could be
facilitated by means of electronic contracts between service consumers and one
or more service provider(s), in order to achieve the necessary reliability and
commitment on both sides. Such contracts help to establish a well-defined
relationship between a service provider and a client in the context of a
particular service provision. This is especially important if the services or
resources to be used come from different administrative domains, or if
commercial service provision needs to be supported. Over the last years we have
seen Service Level Agreements (SLA) increasingly been used to establishing these
kinds of guarantees and relationships. This workshop will provide a forum to
present current research and up-to-date solutions from research and business
communities.


TOPICS OF INTEREST

Topics of interest for the Service Level Agreement in Grids workshop
include but are not limited to:

- Areas benefiting from SLAs
- Languages to express SLAs (e.g. SLOs, BLOs, QoS, Guarantees, Penalties)
- Protocols to conclude and negotiate SLAs
- Technologies for management and observation of SLAs
- Static vs. dynamic SLAs
- Business models & Grid economy
- Validation techniques for SLA parameters
- Comparison and matchmaking of SLA and policy descriptions
- Managing user expectations via SLAs
- Multi-party SLAs and SLA chaining
- SLA-based resource discovery, co-scheduling and resource reservation
- Registry Services and repositories for SLA
- SLA-based trust management including VOs
- Non-technical aspects of SLA-based systems like laws or trust
- SLAs for bursting into the Cloud


PROCEEDINGS

Accepted papers will be published in the CoreGRID Springer Series.


PAPER SUBMISSIONS

Authors are invited to submit manuscripts reporting original unpublished
research and recent developments on the topics of interest. Submitted papers
should be formatted according to the CoreGRID Springer style format
(please see http://www.coregrid.net/mambo/content/view/360/332) and should not
exceed 12 pages including figures and references. Papers should be submitted
electronically in PDF format by sending it as an e-mail attachment to
sla-workshop2010@scai.fraunhofer.de. All papers will be peer reviewed and the
comments will be provided to the authors.
