### Autonomic Management of high-performance Grid and Cloud Computing 
(AMGCC)

- <http://htcaas.kisti.re.kr/wiki/index.php/AMGCC21>
- Paper submission deadline: June 30, 2021

Grid computing leverages enormous computing resources scattered over
the internet in order to integrate and  form a large-scale computing
platform to solve grand-scale problems. Grid computing also has had
great influence on the cloud computing besides the virtualization
technology which logically decouples the physical computing resources
with the computing system. Consequently, the cloud computing provides
cost-effective, fast, and unlimited virtualized resources for 
large-scale applications.
Cloud computing is also used as “utility computing” where the computing 
services
are provided on-demand and as needs based.
Thus, it is commonly deployed for various applications these days.
Managing hybrid, virtualized computing resources in a large-scale
cloud computing environment, however, still leaves a lot of research
to be conducted. Furthermore, autonomous managements of resources
in such a large-scale federated hybrid computing infrastructure
are crucial. In this workshop, we would like to bring researchers
around the world to discuss and communicate the challenges and
research results in the design, implementation, and evaluation
of novel autonomous hybrid cloud resource management systems,
and the theory and practice of cloud and grid resource management.

### Engineering Collective Adaptive Systems (eCAS)

- <http://ecas2021.apice.unibo.it/>
- Paper submission deadline: July 09, 2021

The eCAS’21 workshop focusses on the various aspects of the
  engineering of collective adaptive systems, including
  principles, theories, languages, methodologies, tools, and applications.
It especially welcomes contributions related adaptive
  multi-agent systems, coordination of ensembles, collective intelligence
  and decision-making, cooperative problem-solving. Inter-disciplinary
  works are also encouraged. In general, we seek contributions with 
insights
  as well as practical or theoretical studies supporting the development
  of collective systems (e.g., crowds of augment people, swarms of robots,
  or computational ecosystems) across the various (software-)engineering
  phases (from analysis to deployment).

### Self-Aware Computing (SeAC)

- <http://seac2021.informatik.uni-wuerzburg.de/>
- Paper submission deadline: July 09, 2021

The workshop on self-aware computing (SeAC) provides a forum for
  exchanging ideas and experiences in the interdisciplinary area of
  self-aware computing, fostering interaction and collaborations between
  the different research communities interested in self-aware computing 
systems.
The workshop was initiated by the 2015 Dagstuhl Seminar 15041 on 
model-driven
  algorithms and architectures for self-aware computing systems, which 
brought
  together 45 international experts. We seek all types of works concerning
  theory, applications, and evaluation of SeAC systems and related 
disciplines.

### Self-Improving Systems Integration (SISSY)

- <https://sissy.telecom-paristech.fr/>
- Paper submission deadline: June 14th, 2021

The workshop intends to focus on applying self-X principles to the 
integration
  of “Interwoven Systems” (where an “Interwoven System” is a system cutting
  across several technical domains, combining traditionally engineered 
systems,
  systems making use of self-X properties and methods, and human systems).
The goal of the workshop is to identify key challenges involved in
  creating self-integrating systems and consider methods to achieve
  continuous self-improvement for this integration process.

### Self-Organised Construction (SOCO)

- <http://www.selforganisedconstruction.org>
- Paper submission deadline: June 20, 2021

The SOCO workshop is on self-organised construction. Originally inspired by
  nest construction in social insects, the general concept relies on a
  large number of agents that collaborate, coordinating their construction
  efforts. Given a clear focus on a computational perspective, relevant
  research areas include empirical, theoretical, practical, or
  explorative approaches to self-organised construction, maintenance and 
renovation.
In addition to original contributions to this field, we especially would
  like to encourage vision papers, presenting challenges for the future of
  self-organised construction.

### Self-Protecting Systems (SPS)

- <https://sites.google.com/view/sps21/home>
- Paper submission deadline: June 14th, 2021

Automatically defending a computer system encompasses a large number of
  activities, that range from data capture, management and analysis,
  to automated decision making and automated system operations.
In this workshop, we solicit high quality contributions that fit
  with any of the aforementioned activities and/or the overarching idea of
  creating a fully automated protection system.

### Ubiquitous and Pervasive Computing for self-organizing systems: 
software engineering challenges

- <https://easychair.org/cfp/UPC2021>
- Paper submission deadline: June 15th, 2021

Ubiquitous Computing intends to provide computing and communication services
  anytime and everywhere. Pervasive Computing aims to provide 
spontaneous services
  created on the fly by mobiles that interact by adhoc connections. 
Therefore,
  the aim of these paradigms is to move forward computational services
  from conventional mode based on users/computer interactions into a new 
mode
  based on users/environment interactions. The aim of this workshop is 
to identify
  new approaches and relevant research activities in the design of 
agent-based
  architectures, distributed algorithms, emergence and self-Adaptive 
systems
  for Ubiquitous and Pervasive environments.
