ECOOP / Workshop 09

Resource-Aware Computing

Abstract

The ECOOP Workshop on Mobile Object Systems is already in its 9th Year. The aim of the workshop series is to bring together system and language designers, and generally people interested in discussing the current state and future direction of research in the area of object systems, mobility and other emerging aspects of object-oriented systems. The workshop is a forum to discuss and exchange ideas concerning ongoing theoretical and implementation work.

The theme of this year's workshop is resource-aware computing. As the object-oriented and mobility paradigms are increasingly applied to multi-user, cluster and application server environments, the ability to measure and control resource consumption is crucial. Related issues include resource accountability, resource trading, performance, and security.

This workshop combines with last year's ECOOP Workshop on Resource Control. The program committee chosen are well-known experts in the domain of object-oriented programming from industry and academia. Participants will be invited to submit position statements on resource-awareness, and to present these at the workshop. Our (ambitious) aim for the workshop is to define a charter of research and development points for resource-aware computing.

Main Topics

• Theoretical foundations of resource aware mobile computations.
• Resource control policies.
• Resource control for performance and countering denial of service attacks.
• Runtime and operating system implementation techniques.
• Conflicts and synergies between VM-level resource management and operating system resource management.
• Executing multiple applications in a single virtual machine.
• Scaling up to large and down to small environments.
• Practical experience.
• Language and system implementation techniques.
