INTRODUCTION
The symposium brings together researchers and
practitioners working on policy-based systems
across a wide range of application domains
including policy-based networking, privacy, trust
and security management, autonomic computing,
pervasive systems and enterprise systems.
POLICY 2011 is the 12th in a series of successful events,
which have provided a forum for discussion and
collaboration between researchers, developers and
users of policy-based systems.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
INFORMATION FOR SYSTEM DEMONSTRATION AUTHORS
POLICY 2011 invites system demonstrations that illustrate
research contributions and innovative applications
of policy-based technologies. System demonstration submissions
will be evaluated on the basis of their technical merit and novelty.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:
Privacy and Security:
- Frameworks and tools for managing the privacy
and the security policy life-cycle
- Architectures for deployment and enforcement of
privacy and security policies
- Refinement of high-level privacy/security requirements
into policies
- Detection and resolution of inconsistencies in privacy
and security policies
- Usability of policy-based privacy and security
management tools
Policy Models and Languages:
- Abstract models and languages for policy specification
- Semantic Web rule languages for policy reasoning
- Policy standards, their extensions and refinements
- Formal semantics of policies
- NLP and policy specification
- Methodologies and tools for specifying, analyzing,
refining, and evaluating policies
- Detection and resolution of policy conflicts
- Policy negotiation models and techniques
- Representation of belief, trust, and risk and their
use in conjunction with policy-based systems
- Systems and tools for the management of policies
- Policy visualization
- Usability of policy languages and representations
Policy Applications:
- Federated policy management in heterogeneous
organisational contexts and control domains
- Case studies of applying policy-based management in
different application domains
- Application of policies for resource allocation,
autonomic computing, systems management,
QoS adaptation and security
- Policy-based systems for cloud computing, and service
oriented applications
- Policy-based networking, including collaborative security,
pervasive computing, and mobile systems
- Policy-based Semantic Web applications
- Business rules and organizational modelling
- Policy Metrics: evaluation of the effectiveness of policies
- Policy applications in on-demand, utility based computing
- Resource virtualization and policy-based collaboration
- Cross-domain policy coordination and negotiation
- Scalability of policy-based management
- Architectures of policy-based management systems
- Policy Learning and automated policy generation
Those interested in demonstrating a system/application
should submit a description following the instructions
in the submission information section. Commercial
products are eligible, but sales and marketing
activities are not appropriate.
