A
new paradigm in computing is to take many simple autonomous objects or
agents and let them jointly perform a complex task, without having the
need for centralized control. In this paradigm, these simple objects
interact locally with their environment using simple rules. An important
inspiration for this model is nature itself, where many such systems can
be found. Applications include optimization algorithms, communications
networks, scheduling and decision making, supply-chain management, and
robotics. There are many disciplines involved in making such systems work:
from artificial intelligence to energy aware systems. Often these
disciplines have their own field of focus, have their own conferences, or
only deal with specialized subproblems (e.g. swarm intelligence,
biologically inspired computation, sensor networks). Topics of interest
include, but are not limited to: |
Modelling
and Reasoning about Collaborative Self-Organizing
Systems
Collaborative Sensing and Processing
Systems
Dependability of Collaborative Self-Organizing
Systems
Design and Technology of Collaborative Self-Organizing

must not substantially overlap with papers that have been
published or are simultaneously submitted to a journal or another
conference with proceedings.
- Papers
must be written in English; they should be at most 12 pages in
total, including bibliography and well-marked appendices. Papers

The
Congress
The
World Computer Congress (WCC2010) will bring together IT research
and industry sectors in one event. The congress will combine 17 IFIP
conferences with partner conferences from other international and
regional, specialist IT organisations.
The
conference content will be presented in eight program streams.
Delegates may attend any of the participating conference, industry
or partner events as well as networking, social, technical tours and
certification courses offered at the
congress. | |
