[DMANET] Chow lectures -- deadline approaching

Dear all,

the registration deadline (July 31) for this this year's Chow Lectures is approaching. Due to space restrictions, we will have to handle registration rather strictly.

The Chow Lectures will take place at the Max Planck Institute for Mathematics in the Sciences in Leipzig on October 16-18. The speaker will be June Huh (Princeton University).

June Huh is mainly known for solving long-standing conjectures in combinatorics and discrete geometry using and extending ideas from algebraic geometry. His many distinctions include a Clay Research Fellowship, the New Horizons in Mathematics Prize, and the Fields Medal in 2022.

At the Chow lectures he will give an overview of recent developments in the theory of Lorentzian polynomials, starting from his initial work with Petter Brändén and covering some more recent works of Aluffi, Brändén-Leake, Chan-Pak, Hu-Xiao, Ross, Ross-Süß-Wannerer, and others.

The lectures will be accompanied by a historical talk by Norbert Schappacher as well as talks and exercise sessions lead by Chris Eur, Sofía Garzón, Alheydis Geiger, Shiyue Li and Jacob Matherne.

The idea behind the Chow lectures is to give early-career mathematicians the opportunity to enjoy lectures by internationally renowned experts on active fields of modern mathematics and to create a stimulating research environment.

Limited travel funding can be provided for early-career participants such as postdoctoral researchers and PhD students. Applicants for funding are expected to submit a brief academic CV and a motivation letter or an article on a related topic for evaluation as well as to make a contribution at the event (such as presenting a poster).

[DMANET] SDS 2023 CFP: The 10th International Conference on Software Defined Systems, San Antonio, Texas , USA. October 23-25, 2023

[Apologies if you got multiple copies of this invitation]

The 10th International Conference on Software Defined Systems (SDS-2023)

San Antonio, Texas , USA. October 23-25, 2023

https://emergingtechnet.org/SDS2023/index.php

(Technically Co-sponsored by IEEE and IEEE Systems Council)

*SDS 2023 CFP: *

Next generation cloud systems will require a paradigm shift in how they are
constructed and managed. Conventional control and management platforms are
facing considerable challenges regarding flexibility, dependability and
security that next generation systems will require. The cloud computing
paradigm has gone part of the way towards alleviating some of the problems
associated with resource allocation, utilization and management (e.g., via
elasticity). However, many of the elements of a well-designed cloud
environment remain "stiff" and hard to modify and adapt in an integrated
fashion. This includes underlying networking topologies, many aspects of
the user control over IaaS, PaaS or SaaS layers when such is needed,
construction of XaaS services, provenance and meta-data collection, and so
on. In many situations the problem may be because service abstraction is
inadequate. Software Defined Systems (SDS) are systems that have added
software components which help abstract actual IT equipment and other
layers. One classical example, of course, are hypervisors. Such separation
provides a great opportunity for system administrators to more easily
construct and managing their systems through flexible software layers.
Software Defined Systems include Software Defined Networking (SDN),
Software Defined Storage, Software Defined Servers (Virtualization),
Software Defined Datacenters (SDD), Software Defined Security (SDSec), and
ultimately Software Defined Clouds (SDCloud) to name a few possibilities.
Individual solutions and seamless integration of these abstractions remains
in many respects a challenge. SDS aims to investigate the opportunities and
in all aspects of Software Defined Systems. In addition, it seeks for novel
contributions that help mitigating SDS challenges. That is, the objective
of SDS is to provide a forum for scientists, engineers, and researchers to
discuss and exchange new ideas, novel results and experience on all aspects
of Software Defined Systems. SDS is Technically Co-Sponsored by IEEE.
Researchers are encouraged to submit original research contributions in all
major areas, which include, but not limited to:

* Software Defined Systems support for Cloud Computing .

* Software Defined Networking (SDN).

* SDN concepts, architecture, and APIs.

* Network Virtualization

* SDN and OpenFlow protocol

* Software Defined Radio

* Cognitive Radio Networks .

* Access Control models in SDN.

* Software Defined Storage.

* Software Defined Real Time Functions for Automation.

* Storage Automation and Abstraction.

* Policy-driven storage provisioning.

* Software Defined Servers and Virtualization.

* Software Defined Datacenters.

* Software Defined Security o Security policies automation.

* Self-management systems.

* Autonomic Computing techniques.

ALGORITHMS, APPROXIMATION, AND LEARNING IN MARKET AND MECHANISM DESIGN

In recent years, economists and computer scientists have collaborated
with mathematicians, operations research experts, and practitioners to
improve the design and operations of real-world marketplaces. Such work
relies on robust feedback between theory and practice, inspiring new
mathematics closely linked - and directly applicable - to market and
mechanism design [3] questions.

This workshop is aimed at exploring core subjects in the field of market
and mechanism design, such as the design of non-convex auction markets,
the design of matching markets with preferences, algorithmic mechanism
design, and learning in games. These topics are interrelated and deeply
rooted in mathematics and computer science. Each day of the 4-day
workshop is devoted to one of these topics with talks by leading
scholars in the field and panel discussions on major open problems.
