*****************************************************************
CALL FOR PAPERS
*****************************************************************


MALLOW-AWESOME'007 wants to stimulate  discussion  among  resear-
chers working on Agents, Web Services, and Ontologies,  in  order
to help the identification and the  definition  of  Methodologies
for  integrating them. The realisation of distributed, open, dyn-
amic, and heterogeneous software systems is, in fact,  a  challe-
nge  that  involves  many facets, from formal theories to softwa-
re engineering and practical applications.  Scientists in various
research areas, such  as  Semantic Web, Web Services, Agents, On-
tologies, are attacking this problem from different perspectives.
MALLOW-AWESOME'007 attempts to provide a  discussion  forum  for
collecting and comparing such diverse experiences with the aim of
fostering cross  fertilization. Topics  of  interest are all tho-
se concerned with integrated and/or  cross-field  approaches  for
engineering  Agents, Web Services, Ontologies. They  include, but
are not limited to:

* Semantic Web Agents and Semantic Web Services
* Integrated  Methodologies, Notations, Infrastructures for Agen-
 ts, WSs, Ontologies
* Enhancement of communication among Agents/WSs by means of Onto-
 logies
* Formal aspects for Agents, WSs and Ontologies
* Service-Oriented Multiagent systems
* Implementing agents with WS technologies
* Agent-inspired Declarative Approaches to WSs or SOA
* Exploiting AOSE for engineering WSs and Ontologies
* Orchestrations,  choreographies,  and Interaction Protocols:
 languages, theory and practice
* Formal Description of contracts and negotiation policies
* Tools for Semantic Web Services/Agents
* Applications of Semantic Web Services/Agents
