FOCLASA 2013

The goal of the FOCLASA workshop is to put together researchers and practitioners to share and identify common problems, and to devise general solutions in the context of coordination languages and self-adaptive systems.

• Theoretical models and frameworks for component and service coordination, service composition, service adaptation and concurrent system modeling
• Applications and usability studies for the aforementioned theoretical models, interaction and coordination challenges in decentralized self-adaptive systems and various application domains
• Languages and specification protocols for component and service interaction, their semantics, expressiveness, validation and verification, type checking, static and dynamic analysis
• "Software as a Service" models (e.g., cloud computing) and dynamic software architectures, such as self-adaptive and self-organizing systems
• Formal methods for self-adaptive systems, stochastic modeling and analysis, reasoning under uncertainty, run-time synthesis
• Tools and environments for the development of concurrent and customizable self-monitoring, self-adaptive and self-organizing applications
• Algorithms, mathematical models and realization frameworks for quality-of-service observation, storage, history-based analysis in self-adaptive systems (queuing models, load balancing, fault-tolerance analysis, machine learning systems)
