CALL FOR PAPERS
The Third IEEE International Workshop on
Barriers towards Internet-Driven Information Services (BINDIS'2010)

URL: http://compsac.cs.iastate.edu/workshop_details.php?id=17

In conjunction with the 34th COMPSAC (Seoul, Korea, July 19 - July 23, 2010)

==================================================================================


GOAL OF THE WORKSHOP
--------------------
Service sector forms a growing portion of world economy, accounting at the moment under 50% and around 70% of the total value adds in the developing and developed countries, respectively. Yet, this sector is still lagging behind other industry sectors, such as manufacturing, in terms of overall productivity. The advent of the Internet shortens the distance between service providers and service consumers which, coupled with the ever-increasing computing power, has become a key driver in brewing a new wave of business and technical models, promising to boost the productivity in the service sector.

A full End-to-End (E2E) service cycle covers stages of service creation, marketing, delivery and management. It is only recently that the importance of examining the scale, complexity and interdependence of service systems, in the lights of globalisation, demographic changes and technology developments, have been highlighted, calling for actions from education, research, business and government alike. A first symposium on ?Service Science, Management and Engineering? and a first international conference on service science were held in Cambridge (2007) and Beijing (2008) respectively.

Service science is still in its infancy, existing main driving forces in this area are from traditional hardware and software vendors who, while possessing tremendous knowledge and experience in computing, are restricted in the width and depth of visions in service applications. This workshop intends to fill the gap; in particular, it focuses on the fundamental issues in the service sector that are the major barriers towards more efficient and effective service flows over the Internet. Some exemplar questions to answer are:
? How to implement customers? functional and non-functional requirements in a cost-effective way?
? How to maximise the reach of services to potential customers by spending least effort?
? How do we gather information from a variety of sources that could be created independently?
? How can customers find the services they need without special knowledge on products or services?
? How to determine optimal service-level agreements based on actual enterprise circumstance in the market?

Following the successful running of BINDIS?08 and BINDIS?09 that were held in Turku and Seattle, we now continue to run the third in a series in Seoul, South Korea, 2010. This year?s theme will continue to be ?Enabling Technologies for Services Standardisation?.

The workshop will act as a unique forum to
? Identify key barriers towards efficient and effective service flows over the Internet,
? Provide catalyst to formulate innovative solutions for improved service flows,
? Define future research agenda that helps to boost productivity in the service industry via ICT.


THEMES AND SCOPE OF THE WORKSHOP
--------------------------------
The workshop will bring together researchers and practitioners to share research results, advances and practical experience related to internet-driven information services, with focus on tackling barriers towards maintainability, interoperability, comprehensibility, usability, controllability and sustainability, in order to extend the reach and uses of services over the Internet in a cost-effective way. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
? Service creation
- Software as a service
- Software repository and reuse
- Service oriented architecture, analysis and design
- Service conceptual modeling, composition and orchestration
? Service marketing
- Market detection and segmentation
- Demand forecasting and resource planning
- Service directory, semantics, pragmatics, markup and matchup
- Economic models for service market
? Service delivery and management
- Service-level agreement and optimisation
- Automated customer service
- Workflow and service chain management
- Green computing and facilities management
? Industrial service applications
- Hospitality, professional services, outsourcing, public services, etc.
- Approximate algorithms for real-time applications

SUBMISSION AND REVIEW
---------------------
Original papers will be considered. All submitted papers will be reviewed by the program committee according to its originality, significance, correctness, presentation, and relevance. We encourage authors to present position papers on practical studies and experiments, critiques of existing work, emerging issues, and novel ideas under development.

Both draft and camera-ready papers must be submitted electronically via the BINDIS 2010 Submission Page (TBA). Manuscripts will be limited to six pages for regular/invited paper, four pages for short paper, two pages for fast abstract and position statement including all figures, tables, and references. Extra page charges apply. Please consult COMPSAC Paper Submission page for proper naming convention. The format of submitted papers must follow the IEEE conference proceedings guidelines (i.e., 8.5" x 11", Two-Column Format (PDF, DOC); Layout Guide (PDF, DOC)).

All accepted papers will be published in the electronic conference proceedings by the IEEE Computer Society, indexed through INSPEC and EI Index (Elsevier's Engineering Information Index), and automatically included in the IEEE Digital Library. At least one of the authors of each accepted paper must register as a full participant of COMPSAC for the paper to be included in the proceedings. Each accepted paper must be presented in person by an author.

Authors of a selection of best papers from BINDIS 2010 will also be invited to submit extended versions of the papers to a special issue of a major international journal.
