It's on again!
Do you have something to say about the advancement of the REST architectural style?
Come and present at the WS-REST 2011 Second International Workshop on RESTful Design.
As a member of the programme committee I would like to echo the call for papers and encourage high quality submissions. Take care! If it's not REST I'll call you on it! This workshop will deal with REST design topics, the use of REST in novel ways, novel patterns for integrating REST with non-REST architectural elements, and the bridging of cultural and technical divides between REST and non-REST crowds. Don't be put off by the cheeky title. I assure you, it is about the advancement of the REST architectural style.
Time is running out, so get your papers in by 2011-01-31.
Here is the offical text
The Second International Workshop on RESTful Design (WS-REST 2011) aims to provide a forum for discussion and dissemination of research on the emerging resource-oriented style of Web service design. Background
Over the past few years, several discussions between advocates of the two major architectural styles for designing and implementing Web services (the RPC/ESB-oriented approach and the resource-oriented approach) have been mainly held outside of the research and academic community, within dedicated mailing lists, forums and practitioner communities. The RESTful approach to Web services has also received a significant amount of attention from industry as indicated by the numerous technical books being published on the topic.
This second edition of WS-REST, co-located with the WWW2011 conference, aims at providing an academic forum for discussing current emerging research topics centered around the application of REST, as well as advanced application scenarios for building large scale distributed systems.
In addition to presentations on novel applications of RESTful Web services technologies, the workshop program will also include discussions on the limits of the applicability of the REST architectural style, as well as recent advances in research that aim at tackling new problems that may require to extend the basic REST architectural style. The organizers are seeking novel and original, high quality paper submissions on research contributions focusing on the following topics:
- Applications of the REST architectural style to novel domains
- Design Patterns and Anti-Patterns for RESTful services
- RESTful service composition
- Inverted REST (REST for push events)
- Integration of Pub/Sub with REST
- Performance and QoS Evaluations of RESTful services
- REST compliant transaction models
- Mashups
- Frameworks and toolkits for RESTful service implementations
- Frameworks and toolkits for RESTful service consumption
- Modeling RESTful services
- Resource Design and Granularity
- Evolution of RESTful services
- Versioning and Extension of REST APIs
- HTTP extensions and replacements
- REST compliant protocols beyond HTTP
- Multi-Protocol REST (REST architectures across protocols)
All workshop papers are peer-reviewed and accepted papers will be published as part of the ACM Digital Library. Two kinds of contributions are sought: short position papers (not to exceed 4 pages in ACM style format) describing particular challenges or experiences relevant to the scope of the workshop, and full research papers (not to exceed 8 pages in the ACM style format) describing novel solutions to relevant problems. Technology demonstrations are particularly welcome, and we encourage authors to focus on "lessons learned" rather than describing an implementation.
Papers must be submitted electronically in PDF format.
