If you're not using the new configuration style, the only difference you should notice is the location of your log files. They'll now go into a numbered run directory (run000, run001, etc). If you notice any other issues/bugs, please let me know. Thanks, David -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

We are pleased to invite you to submit your papers to WorldCISTI'14. All submissions will be reviewed on the basis of relevance, originality, importance and clarity. THEMES Submitted papers should be related with one or more of the main themes proposed for the Conference: A) Information and Knowledge Management (IKM); B) Organizational Models and Information Systems (OMIS); C) Intelligent and Decision Support Systems (IDSS); D) Software Systems, Architectures, Applications and Tools (SSAAT); E) Computer Networks, Mobility and Pervasive Systems (CNMPS); F) Human-Computer Interaction (HCI); G) Health Informatics (HIS); H) Information Technologies in Education (ITE). TYPES OF SUBMISSIONS AND DECISIONS Four types of papers can be submitted: Full paper: Finished or consolidated R&D works, to be included in one of the Conference themes. These papers are assigned a 10-page limit. Short paper: Ongoing works with relevant preliminary results, open to discussion. These papers are assigned a 7-page limit. Poster paper: Initial work with relevant ideas, open to discussion. These papers are assigned to a 4-page limit. Company paper: Companies' papers that show practical experience, R & D, tools, etc., focused on some topics of the conference. These papers are assigned to a 4-page limit. Submitted papers must comply with the format of Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing Series (see Instructions for Authors at Springer Website or download a DOC example) be written in English, must not have been published before, not be under review for any other conference or publication and not include any information leading to the authors? identification. Therefore, the authors? names, affiliations and bibliographic references should not be included in the version for evaluation by the Program Committee. This information should only be included in the camera-ready version, saved in Word or Latex format and also in PDF format. These files must be accompanied by the Consent to Publication form filled out, in a ZIP file, and uploaded at the conference management system. All papers will be subjected to a ?double-blind review? by at least two members of the Program Committee. Based on Program Committee evaluation, a paper can be rejected or accepted by the Conference Chairs. In the later case, it can be accepted as the type originally submitted or as another type. Thus, full papers can be accepted as short papers or poster papers only. Similarly, short papers can be accepted as poster papers only. In these cases, the authors will be allowed to maintain the original number of pages in the camera-ready version. The authors of accepted poster papers must also build and print a poster to be exhibited during the Conference. This poster must follow an A1 or A2 vertical format. The Conference includes Work Sessions where these posters are presented and orally discussed, with a 5 minute limit per poster. The authors of accepted full papers will have 15 minutes to present their work in a Conference Work Session; approximately 5 minutes of discussion will follow each presentation. The authors of accepted short papers and company papers will have 11 minutes to present their work in a Conference Work Session; approximately 4 minutes of discussion will follow each presentation. PUBLICATION AND INDEXING To ensure that a full paper, short paper, poster paper or company paper is published in the Proceedings, at least one of the authors must be fully registered by the 24th of January 2014, and the paper must comply with the suggested layout and page-limit. Additionally, all recommended changes must be addressed by the authors before they submit the camera-ready version. No more than one paper per registration will be published in the Conference Proceedings. An extra fee must be paid for publication of additional papers, with a maximum of one additional paper per registration. Full and short papers will be published in Proceedings by Springer, in Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing Series. Poster and company papers will be published in Proceedings by AISTI. Published full and short papers will be submitted for indexation by ISI, EI-Compendex, SCOPUS and DBLP, among others, and will be available in the SpringerLink Digital Library. Published poster and company papers will be submitted for indexation by EI-Compendex and EBSCO. The authors of the best selected papers will be invited to extend them for publication in international journals indexed by ISI, SCOPUS and DBLP, among others, such as: Journal of Information Technology (JIT) Social Science Computer Review (SSCR) Information Processing & Management (IPM) Information Technology & People (ITP) Computer Science and Information Systems (ComSIS) Information Development (IDV) IEEE IT Professional (ITPro) Methods of Information in Medicine (MIM) Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering - Imaging & Visualization (CMBBE-IV) Journal of Medical Internet Research (JMIR) International Journal of Interactive Multimedia and Artificial Intelligence (IJIMAI) International Journal of Health Information Systems & Informatics (IJHISI) International Journal of Web Based Communities (IJWBC) EAI Transactions on e-Education and e-Learning (EAI-TEL) INPORTANT DATES Paper Submission: November 29, 2013 Notification of Acceptance: January 10, 2014 Camera-ready Submission: January 19, 2014 Payment of Registration, to ensure the inclusion of an accepted paper in the conference proceedings: January 24, 2014.

I committed a basic coaster client. It has a launcher called (unsurprisingly) "coaster-client". I also added an info command which can be used to get information about blocks/workers/jobs from the service. Run like this: coaster-client info (workers|jobs|blocks) you can also run stuff using WorkerShellCommand like this: coaster-client runcmd ls The code is rather basic, but it gets the point accross. A few comments I want to make: - The INFO stuff is sent back as formatted strings. It might be more proper to serialize the information in a more structured way. While there is no automatic way of doing so (except ObjectOutputStream, which isn't portable), the effort of doing so might pay of in not having to deal with parsing strings. - INFO is a pull-based thing. The coaster service already sends push information about blocks/workers/jobs in the form of remote log data for the first two and status updates for the latter. This is used by the HTTP and Swing UIs to plot #of blocks/workers/jobs. So in production code, one might want to use that instead of polling the service regularly.
