Call For Papers

The International ACM Conference on Management of Emergent Digital EcoSystems (MEDES 2009)
Technically sponsored by both ACM SIGAPP and ACM SIGAPP.fr Chapter
with the cooperation of IFIP WG 2.6
http://sigappfr.acm.org/medes
October 27-30, 2009
Lyon - France

Description and Objectives
---------------------------
In the world of the Internet, the rapid growth and exponential use of digital medias leads to the emergence of
virtual environments namely digital ecosystems composed of multiple and independent entities such as individuals,
organizations, services, software and applications sharing one or several missions and focusing on the interactions
and inter-relationships among them. The digital ecosystem exhibits self-organizing environments, thanks to the
re-combination and evolution of its “digital components”, in which resources provided by each entity are properly
conserved, managed and used. The underlying resources mainly comprehend data management, innovative services,
computational intelligence and self-organizing platforms. Due to the multi-disciplinary nature of digital ecosystems and their characteristics, they are highly complex to study and design. This also leads to a poor understanding as to how managing resources will empower digital ecosystems to be innovative and value-creating. The application of Information Technologies has the potential to enable the understanding of how entities request resources and ultimately interact to create benefits and added-values, impacting business practices and knowledge. These technologies can be improved through novel techniques, models and methodologies for fields such as data management, web technologies, networking, security, human-computer interactions, artificial intelligence, e-services and self-organizing systems to support the establishment of digital ecosystems and manage their resources.
The International Conference on Management of Emergent Digital EcoSystems (EDES) aims to develop and bring together
a diverse community from academia, research laboratories and industry interested in exploring the manifold challenges
and issues related to resource management of Digital Ecosystems and how current approaches and technologies can be
evolved and adapted to this end. The conference seeks related original research papers, industrial papers and proposals
for demonstrations, and tutorials and workshops.

Paper Submission
----------------
Submissions must be in an electronic form as PDF format and should be uploaded using the conference website.
Submissions should be at most 8 ACM single-space printed pages. Papers that fail to comply with length limit
will be rejected. Submissions will be peer-reviewed by at least 3 peer reviewers. Selection criteria will
include: relevance, significance, impact, originality, technical soundness, and quality of presentation.
Preference will be given to submissions that take strong or challenging positions on important emergent topics
related to Digital Ecosystems. At least one author should attend the conference to present the paper.
The conference Proceedings will be published by ACM and indexed by the ACM Digital Library.
