Defense Daily Network
Cyber Security Summit
Friday, June 11, 2010

7:30 AM - 4:45 PM
Washington Marriott at Metro Center
775 12th Street, NW
Washington, DC 20005

While it has often been said that the next big terrorist threat
to the United States could come through the Internet, affecting
defense, government and private sector networks, those systems
are also vulnerable to criminal endeavors looking for monetary
 benefit from exploiting financial systems. Defense contractors,
 government agencies and the military all have a stake in
 safeguarding their networks from attack. Defending against and
 defeating cyber attacks will require the combined efforts of both
the public and private sectors, working to develop new technologies
 and new approaches, for maintaining real-time protection of their
 individual networks.

Defense Daily's one-day program offers unique insights into what
 it's going to take for the private-public relationship to work more
 effectively in the cyber security arena. With four insightful panels
 and two noteworthy keynote addresses, you are sure to come
 away armed with the knowledge of how your organization can take
 advantage of the opportunities and technological developments
 being made in space.

20th Computers, Freedom and Privacy Conference Features Sessions on Privacy in Cloud Computing, Healthcare IT, Smart Grids, Social Network Activism, 2010 Census Concerns, Human Rights Issues, June 15th-18th at San Jose State University

Google Chief Legal Officer David Drummond will discuss human rights in the context of the World Wide Web, and Microsoft Chief Privacy Strategist Peter Cullen will probe privacy issues in cloud computing in their respective keynote addresses at the ACM Computers, Freedom and Privacy Conference (CFP 2010) June 15th-18th at San Jose State University. The conference is sponsored by ACM (the Association for Computing Machinery).

Other organizations with representatives participating in CFP 2010 panels and workshops include the Electronic Frontier Foundation, the Electronic Privacy Information Center, the American Civil Liberties Union of Northern California, the Future of Privacy Forum, the Center for Democracy and Technology, the World Privacy Forum, and the Privacy Rights Clearinghouse.

“The CFP conference offers a timely opportunity to understand how computing and information technologies are transforming our society,” said conference co-chair Jon Pincus of Qworky. “By bringing together a unique mix of communities representing consumer advocates, business interests, technologists, policy and legal analysts, and activists in the Silicon Valley, where so many companies are creating the future, we can chart a path toward advancing freedom and privacy in this networked world.”

4th ACM International Conference on Distributed Event-Based Systems (DEBS)

July 12-15, 2010, King’s College, Cambridge, United Kingdom

Event-based systems are rapidly gaining importance in many application
domains ranging from real time monitoring systems in production, logistics
and networking to complex event processing in finance and security. The
event based paradigm has gathered momentum as witnessed by current efforts
in areas including event-driven architectures, complex event processing,
business process management and modelling, Grid computing, Web services
notifications, information dissemination, event stream processing, and
message-oriented middleware. The various communities dealing with event
based systems have made progress in different aspects of the problem. The
DEBS conference attempts to bring together researchers and practitioners
active in the various subcommunities to share their views and reach a
common understanding.

The scope of the conference covers all topics relevant to event-based
computing ranging from those discussed in related disciplines (e.g.,
coordination, software engineering, peer-to-peer systems, Grid computing,
and streaming databases), over domain-specific topics of event-based
computing (e.g., workflow management systems, mobile computing, pervasive
and ubiquitous computing, sensor networks, user interfaces, component
integration, Web services, and embedded systems), to enterprise related
topics (e.g., complex event detection, enterprise application integration,
real time enterprises, and Web services notifications).

ebizQ’s Event Processing Virtual Conference
May 7th 2008

EDA and SOA are two distinct but related architectures — and systems can be combined into both. Many organizations are finding that event-driven SOA maximizes business agility. However, there remains a lot of confusion in the industry about how EDA and SOA are related and how they differ.

ebizQ’s Event Processing Virtual Conference will begin at 11 a.m. on May 7th and feature keynotes from Gartner VP Roy Schulte and Forrester’s Principal Analyst Rob Koplowitz. David Luckham will be a panelist at ebizQ’s Event Processing Virtual Conference’s “EDA and SOA” panel set for 2:45 p.m. He’ll be joined by moderator SOA Consortium director Brenda Michelson (who implemented a CEP solution for L.L. Bean) and Caltech’s Mani Chandy. They’ll discuss how EDA can enhance your SOA efforts, including:

• How EDA and SOA are related but distinct architectural approaches
• How EDA can increase the agility of SOA implementations
• Business scenarios – when to use EDA, when to use SOA, and when to use both.

The panelists will answer audience questions live during the presentation, and a full array of interactive booths and chat sessions will let attendees interact with the experts and each other. To find out more and register, visit: http://www.ebizq.net/to/EHPLUCKHAMVCEPHP0416

Call for Papers – Workshop on Event Driven Architecture Recently, analysts and vendors have been promoting Event Driven architecture as the “Next Big Thing”. Simple event-driven processing has been in common use for at least 10 years with technology such as message-oriented middleware and, in the past few years, message-driven Enterprise JavaBeans. However, the “Next Big Thing” they are referring to is the architecture that supports processing complex business events to address business real time needs. Recognizing the importance of this topic, a one day workshop will be held in conjunction with OOPSLA 06 to address issues related to EDA. Read more information…

European Workshop on Data Stream Analysis
Casserta, Italy
March 14-16, 2007

A growing number of applications in areas like networking, retail industry or sensor networks are dealing with a challenging type of data: data is produced over time in an unpredictable fashion, representing streams of network traffic, retail transactions or sensor-measured values. A key requirement of such applications is to continuously monitor and react to interesting phenomena occurring in the input streams. Streaming applications are usually characterized by transient relations, continuous queries, approximate answers and one-pass evaluation. Read more information…

Gartner Event Processing Summit: Real Time Agility through Event Processing and Business Activity Monitoring
19-21 September, 2007
Orlando, Florida
JW Marriott Grande Lakes

Overview Event processing (EP) is fast emerging as a key opportunity for leading technology users who seek a competitive advantage through increased agility and faster, better insight into business conditions. Already used successfully in trading, fraud detection, sensor networks, sales, transportation operations and other areas, Event Processing and Business Activity Monitoring (BAM) represent a fundamental shift in the way companies view, monitor and act upon business or technical events (whether these are processes, messages, data changes, transactions etc…). The new technologies that support EP and BAM provide improved agility by enabling faster responsiveness to customer, supplier and market needs. Read the announcement
