Call For Papers - CFP
The global complexity of distributed communication systems makes their full life cycle, including the design, development, deployment and management processes, quite difficult to be understood and mastered. In particular, the knowledge of all concepts, objects, components, properties, their relationships and collaborations, needs to be very well defined. This knowledge must also be openly shared between the actors involved in the architecture design, in order to provide clear semantics, full interoperability and automatic deployment of protocols and services. Indeed, the diversity of standards, of languages, of software and hardware components, often leads to inefficiency or incompatibility issues when designing and developing protocols, services and architectures for communication systems. Moreover, the structural coherence and the behavioral coordination resulting from the composition of the different elementary components deployed at MAC, network, transport, and middleware layers also need adequate, valid and efficient multi-layer solutions. Furthermore, user and community requirements and preferences are currently not easily taken into account when defining, configuring and instantiating present multilevel communications systems.Recent advances in ontology-based technologies, and particularly in expressing knowledge and supporting reasoning provided by these semantic frameworks, are being largely used in the new web and other important domains.
As this work is just beginning in the area of communications systems, MOPAS 2010, the inaugural International Conference on Models and Ontologies-based Design of Protocols, Architectures and Services proposes a new context for presenting achievements, surveys and perspectives in the areas of design, architecture and implementation based on ontologies and related models.
The topics suggested by the conference can be discussed in term of concepts, state of the art, research, standards, implementations, running experiments, applications, and industrial case studies. Authors are invited to submit complete unpublished papers, which are not under review in any other conference or journal in the following, but not limited to, topic areas. All tracks are open to both research and industry contributions.

MOT: Models and Ontology-driven Technologies (for the communications system design)

Once you receive the notification of paper acceptance, you will be provided by the publisher an online author kit with all the steps an author needs to follow to submit the final version. The author kits URL will be included in the letter of acceptance.
Poster Forum
Posters are welcome. Please submit the contributions following the instructions for the regular submissions using the "Submit a Paper" button and selecting the contribution type as poster. Submissions are expected to be 6-8 slide deck. Posters will not be published in the Proceedings. One poster with all the slides together should be used for discussions. Presenters will be allocated a space where they can display the slides and discuss in an informal manner. The poster slide decks will be posted on the IARIA site.
For more details, see the Poster Forum explanation page.
Work in Progress
Work-in-progress contributions are welcome. Please submit the contributions following the instructions for the regular submissions using the "Submit a Paper" button and selecting the contribution type as work in progress. Authors should submit a four-page (maximum) text manuscript in IEEE double-column format including the authors' names, affiliations, email contacts. Contributors must follow the conference deadlines, describing early research and novel skeleton ideas in the areas of the conference topics. The work will be published in the conference proceedings.
For more details, see the Work in Progress explanation page
Technical marketing/business/positioning presentations
The conference initiates a series of business, technical marketing, and positioning presentations on the same topics. Speakers must submit a 10-12 slide deck presentations with substantial notes accompanying the slides, in the .ppt format (.pdf-ed). The slide deck will not be published in the conference’s CD Proceedings. Presentations' slide decks will be posted on the IARIA's site. Please send your presentations to petre
iaria.org.Tutorials
Tutorials provide overviews of current high interest topics. Proposals should be for three hour tutorials. Proposals must contain the title, the summary of the content, and the biography of the presenter(s). The tutorials' slide decks will be posted on the IARIA's site. Please send your proposals to petre
iaria.orgPanel proposals:
The organizers encourage scientists and industry leaders to organize dedicated panels dealing with controversial and challenging topics and paradigms. Panel moderators are asked to identify their guests and manage that their appropriate talk supports timely reach our deadlines. Moderators must specifically submit an official proposal, indicating their background, panelist names, their affiliation, the topic of the panel, as well as short biographies. The panel's slide deck will be posted on the IARIA's site.
