June 15: Camera Ready Paper Due Date

The widespread of the internet has given further opportunities for
providing new services and web-based applications. However, such
applications are often accompanied by a high complexity, and the
number of standards, to which an application must follow, is rapidly
increasing. Representing related problems as optimization problems
will often not find an exact analytical solution anymore, and the
need for advanced heuristic techniques becomes prevalent. Heuristic
techniques provide a wealth of methods to handle tasks in complex
application domains. Among such techniques we can find evolutionary
computation, tabu search, simulated annealing, as well as many
probabilistic, hybrid and ensemble approaches.
This workshop will focus on soft computing methods to tangent the
needs of modern internet-based applications and their underlying
networking layer. It is supposed to bring together researchers from
different communities with the similar need, and to provide a base
for scientific exchange of research ideas.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Network design
- Handling networking problems by graph theory
- QoS/QoE solutions
- Modeling of network-based services
- Scaling of network
- Human-machine interface
- Digital convergence
- User modeling
- Network bottleneck identification
- Efficient content delivery schemes
- Service authentication and authorization schemes
- Service scheduling
- Network security
- Service and content retrieval and ranking
- Debugging of internet-based applications


PAPER SUBMISSION
Papers are to be submitted electronically on the EDAS web site of
the conference in PDF format.

Submissions should be original and limited to 5 double-column pages,
and should follow IEEE paper templates. Paper with more pages can be
accepted however they need to be reduced to 5 pages for publication.

Accepted and presented papers will be published in the conference
proceedings and submitted to IEEE Xplore as well as other
Abstracting and Indexing (A&I) databases.
