Colleagues,
This workshop has included interesting work using XACML the past few
years, and is a good place to meet with policy researchers, both
academic and industrial. I encourage you to submit papers on aspects of
XACML!
Regards,
Anne
Policy 2007
===========
8th IEEE International Workshop on Policies
===========================================
for Distributed Systems and Networks
====================================
13-15 June 2007
Bologna, Italy
http://www.policy-workshop.org/2007
Held every year since 1999, the Policy Workshop has become the premier
forum for exchange of research results and experience reports on all
aspects of policy-based management of IT systems. Policy 2007 aims to
bring together researchers and practitioners working on policy-based
management across a wide range of application domains including
networks, security and privacy, storage, and databases.
This year, the workshop will have a special focus on the Semantic Web.
The Semantic Web provides promising technologies for policy-based
management both for the Web and other distributed systems such as the
pervasive environments, grid computing, and multi-agent systems. We
invite semantic web researchers to attend, and contribute to, Policy
2007, for a unique opportunity to introduce the latest developments in
semantic web policies to researchers in other policy areas, and also
to learn from the latter's experiences. Policy 2007 would like to
bring together researchers of both the semantic web and policy in an
attempt to explore the utility of semantic web based policy frameworks
to various applications. We are also organizing a special issue of
Elsevier’s Journal of Web Semantics. Authors of the best papers
covering topics relevant to Semantic Web will be invited to submit
extended versions of their work to this issue.
POLICY 2007 invites unpublished novel contributions on all aspects of
policy-based management. Papers must describe original work and must
not have been accepted or submitted for publication elsewhere.
Submitted papers will be evaluated for technical contribution,
originality, and significance. For a list of the topics of interest,
please refer to the full CFP at the workshop website:
