CALL FOR PAPERS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
AlMoDEP 2011
1st International Workshop on Algorithms and Models
for Distributed Event Processing

September 19, 2011 - Roma, Italy
Held in conjunction with DISC 2011

http://www.dis.uniroma1.it/~almodep/

*** SUBMISSION DEADLINE: July 10, 2011 ***
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Workshop topic and goals
------------------------
Event based systems are considered as a basic building block for the
design of
large-scale architectures able to withstand the complexities of today's
heterogeneous and dynamic applications. Event based systems are successfully
employed in several application fields like distributed remote monitoring,
business intelligence, air traffic control or collaborative security.

The AlMoDEP workshop aims at fostering discussion on theoretical aspects of
distributed event processing among participants from different research areas
like algorithm theory, event processing, distributed systems and databases.

Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
- Event-driven interaction models
- Complex event processing
- Stream processing
- Event-routing algorithms and protocols
- Algorithms for QoS-aware event distribution
- Event algebras, event schemas and type systems
- Languages for event correlation and patterns, streaming and continuous
queries, data fusion
- Models for static and dynamic environments
- Design and programming methodologies
- Event-based business process management and modeling
- Performance modeling and prediction based on analytic approaches

The workshop is looking for contributions addressing research, ongoing work,
ideas, concepts, and critical questions related to algorithmic and modelling
aspect of distributed event processing systems. The final workshop program
will include both talks presenting novel contributions and two keynotes
presentations.
