As today’s IT systems, networks, and services become increasingly complex, the demand to manage and
control them has grown rapidly. Traditional practice for run-time resource management and control largely
relies on ad-hoc techniques. As a result, changes in workloads and configurations often result in poor
quality of service (QoS) or even instabilities. In recent year, there has been considerable success with
applying feedback control theory to analyzing and designing run-time IT control systems. Areas addressed
include computer networks, middleware, Internet services, virtual environment management, workload
management, load balancing, and power management.
The Second IEEE International Workshop on Feedback Control Implementation and Design in Computing
Systems and Networks (FeBID 2007) will be held on 25 May 2007 in Munich, Germany. Building on the
success of the first FeBID workshop that took place in Vancouver, Canada (http://www.controlofsystems.
org/febid2006/), FeBID 2007 offers a unique opportunity for researchers and practitioners working in this
area to discuss recent and innovative results of applying control theory to computing systems and
networks, to exchange ideas and experience on practical control system design and implementation, and
to identify future directions and challenges in aligning feedback control techniques to business values.
Topics of interest to this workshop include, but are not limited to, the following:
The structure of this workshop will include paper presentations and panels to encourage discussions and
foster future collaborations. We encourage papers that position research directions in new areas, or share
lessons learned in practical applications. Attendance will be limited to 50 participants.
Authors are invited to submit original contributions in PDF through the workshop website. All submissions
should be formatted according to the standard IEEE two-column conference guidelines and not exceed 6
pages in length. Manuscript templates are available for download at http://www.im2007.org/. Accepted
papers will be available on the workshop website (no transfer of copyright).
