[Coord23] Planning SC meeting (requires action)

by Mieke Massink

Dear All, Dear Antonia and Sung, DisCoTec 2023 is soon to take place in Lisbon from June 19 to June 23 and Coordination 2023 will take place on 20-21-22 June. The proceedings of Coordination 2023 are in the production phase at Springer and the conference programme should appear soon. Many thanks to Antonia and Sung for all the work! I would like to plan a meeting of the Steering Committee at the conference inviting also the current PC Chairs Antonia and Sung. According to the information that is available at the moment, it seems sessions will end at 16.30 every day (followed by a coffee break). A good time to plan a SC meeting could therefore be from 17-18.30 (local Lisbon time), either on Tuesday 20 or on Wednesday 21 afternoon. Below please find a doodle link to *insert your preference in the next few days*: https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/av8PE5Md A preliminary agenda for the meeting is the following: 1) A presentation by the PC Chairs of this year, Antonia and Sung, on the current edition: some statistics, experience and suggestions 2) Status of various Coordination Special Issues and plans for next Special Issues 3) Place of next year's DisCoTec 2024: According to recent news from the DisCoTec SC this will be held in Groningen, The Netherlands. Jorge Perez has been kindly accepting to be the General Chair of DisCoTec 2024. 4) Suggestions for names of next year's PC chairs 5) Any other business For what regards point (4) of the agenda, I'm including a list below obtained from the minutes of the SC meeting of last year. For what concerns the criteria, we could follow a similar approach as last year: 1) Continuing the tradition of having one woman and one men 2) Have at least one Co-Chair that is familiar with Coordination 3) Have one Co-Chair from the country where the event takes place 4) Have (at least) one Co-Chair that is sufficiently senior (+ experience with Conference organisation) Any additional suggestions for names that come to mind, please just drop me an email (with some brief motivation) so that we have a nice list to start from at the meeting. Looking forward to see many of you in Lisbon! All the best, Mieke List of names proposed in last year's SC meeting: Proposed women candidates (not in any specific order): - Catia Trubiani (L’Aquila, GSSI Assistant Prof., Int. experience Imperial college, Karlsruhe Univ. ). - Cristina Ceceleanu (Malardalen Univ., Sweden, Associate Prof.) - Antonia Lopes (Lisbon University, Associate Prof.) - (*) Fatemeh Ghassemi (Sharif University Iran, Assistant prof.) - (*) Natallia Kokash (Univ. of Amsterdam, NL, ICT developer UvA) - Stephanie Balzer — Scientist at Carnegie Mellon University USA, http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~balzers/, PC member Coordination 2020/2019. (*) For different reasons it was considered that these candidates where not the most suitable to invite for the 2023 edition of Coordination. But we keep them on the list of potential candidates for a future event. Proposed men candidates (not in any specific order): - Jose’ Proenca (Assistant Researcher, CISTER, Porto) - Vasco Vasconcelos (Full Prof. Informatics, Univ. of Lisbon) - Luis Caires (Full Prof. New Univ. of Lisbon) - Antonio Ravara, (Assistant Prof, New Univ. of Lisbon) - Fabrizio Montesi, (Full prof CS Univ of Southern Denmark) - Francesco Tiezzi, (Univ.

New models, architectures, languages and verification techniques are necessary to cope with the complexity induced by the demands of today’s software development. Coordination languages have emerged as a successful approach, in that they provide abstractions that cleanly separate behaviour from communication, therefore increasing modularity, simplifying reasoning, and ultimately enhancing software development. Building on the success of the previous editions, this conference provides a well-established forum for the growing community of researchers interested in models, languages, architectures, and implementation techniques for coordination. Topics: ------- * Theoretical models and foundations for coordination: component composition, concurrency, mobility, dynamic, spatial and probabilistic aspects of coordination, logic, emergent behaviour, types, semantics; * Specification, refinement, and analysis of architectures: patterns and styles, verification of functional and non-functional properties, including performance and security aspects; * Dynamic software architectures: distributed mobile code, configuration, reconfiguration, networked computing, parallel, high-performance and cloud computing * Nature- and bio-inspired approaches to coordination; * Coordination of multi-agent and collective systems: models, languages, infrastructures, self-adaptation, self-organisation, distributed solving, collective intelligence and emerging behaviour; * Coordination and modern distributed computing: web services, peer-to-peer networks, grid computing, context-awareness, ubiquitous computing, mobile computing; * Coordination platforms for infrastructures of emergent new application domains like IoT, fog- and edge-computing; * Cybersecurity aspects of coordinated systems, coordinated approaches to cybersecurity; * Programming methodologies, languages, middleware, tools, and environments for the development and verification of coordinated applications; * Tools, languages and methodologies for secure coordination; * Industrial relevance of coordination and software architectures: programming in the large, domain-specific software architectures and coordination models, case studies; * Interdisciplinary aspects of coordination; * Industry-led efforts in coordination and case studies. Invited Speaker ------------------------ Frank Pfenning, Carnegie Mellon University, USA We invite you to submit: ----------------------- * Regular long papers (7-15 pages, not counting references): describing thorough and complete research results and experience reports. * Regular short papers (4-6 pages, not counting references): describing research in progress or opinion papers on the past of COORDINATION research, on the current state of the art, or on prospects for the years to come. * Short tool papers (4-6 pages, not counting references): describing technological artefacts in the scope of the research topics of COORDINATION. Short tool papers are not required to provide an account of theoretical foundations and are not required to present the design and implementation concerns. They should provide a clear account of the tool’s functionality and discuss the tool’s practical capabilities. The paper must contain a link to a publicly downloadable MPEG-4 demo video of at most 10 minutes length. * Long tool papers (7-15 pages, not counting references): describing technological artefacts in the scope of the research topics of COORDINATION. A full-length tool paper should provide a brief account of the theoretical foundations (including relevant citations), present the design and implementation concerns (possibly including software architecture and core data structures), provide a clear account of the tool’s functionality, discuss the tool’s practical capabilities (possibly with reference to the type and size of problems it can handle), and (when applicable) report on realistic case studies (possibly providing a rigorous experimental evaluation). Papers that present extensions to existing tools should clearly describe the improvements or extensions with respect to previously published versions of the tool (possibly providing data on enhancements in terms of resources and capabilities). The paper must contain a link to a publicly downloadable MPEG-4 demo video of at most 10 minutes length. * Survey papers (16-25 pages, not counting references): describing important results and success stories that originated in the context of COORDINATION. Important dates --------------- * Abstract submission: **EXTENDED** February 24, 2023 * Paper submission: **EXTENDED** March 4, 2023 * Paper notification: April 7, 2023 * Artefact submission: April 14, 2023 * Artefact notification: April 30, 2023 * Camera-ready: April 30, 2023 Dates are Anywhere on Earth (AoE). Proceedings ----------- The conference proceedings, formed by accepted submissions from any category, will be published by Springer in LNCS-IFIP volumes. Special issues -------------- Following the tradition of previous editions of COORDINATION, depending on the quality and number of the submissions, COORDINATION 2023 will host special issues of selected papers in reputable journals like the journal of Science of Computer Programming’s Software Track for tool papers and the journal of Logical Methods in Computer Science for the remaining categories.

[SC_Coord] New mailing list

by Mieke Massink

Dear All, First of all my best wishes for the New Year. As you may have noticed, I have started working on one of my "good intentions" for this year, which is the set-up of an email list for the Steering Committee. The reason for this is that some of you let me know that some mailers did not allow one to directly reply to all members of the list. You should have received a notice on the inclusion of your email address on this new list including instructions on how to use it. My current email is therefore also a test. I would appreciate it if you could let me know (to my individual email address) whether you received the current email and whether you would need other aliases of your address to be included. The latter are needed if you send emails to the list from another address than the one currently included in the list, which is the address that was used in the past emails to the SC. All the best, Mieke -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dr. Mieke Massink Ph.D. - Senior Researcher FM&&T Group (http://fmt.isti.cnr.it) C.N.R. - Area della Ricerca di Pisa - Ist.
