            for Distributed Systems and Networks

7-9 June 2004

IBM T.J. Watson Research Centre, Yorktown Heights, New York.

http://www.policy-workshop.org/2004/

The policy workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners
working on policy-based systems across a wide range of application areas
including policy-based networking, security management, storage area
networking, and enterprise systems. Policy 2004 is the 5th in a series of
successful workshops which since 1999 have provided a forum for discussion
and collaboration between researchers, developers and users of policy-based
systems. This year, in addition to the latest research results from the
communities working in the areas mentioned above, we encourage 
contributions
on policy-based techniques in support of: autonomic computing, ubiquitous
systems and business rules.

Policy 2004 invites contributions in the form of either:
- Technical papers (max. length 10 pages).
- Short position papers describing preliminary experimental results,
  experiences with deployed policy systems, and new applications and
  directions for policies (max. length 4 pages)

Paper submission deadline: 19 December 2003
