: About CollECTeR
:
: CollECTeR (Collaborative Electronic Commerce Technology and Research) is a
: joint venture by more than 25 universities around the world which, through
: a loose federation of research centres - one located at each institution -
: provides both depth and breadth of expertise in Electronic Commerce.
:
: CollECTeR had its genesis in a workshop (PAWEC'97) held as part of the
: Pacific Asia Conference on Information Systems (PACIS'97) held in
: Brisbane, Australia in 1997. Although the prime role of CollECTeR centres
: is to undertake research and consultancy both individually and as a
: network, the workshop/conference theme has continued to be an important
: part of the CollECTeR initiative since Brisbane. Further CollECTeR
: conferences were held in association with the Australasian Conference on
: Information Systems in Adelaide in 1997, Sydney in 1998, and Wellington,
: New Zealand in 1999.
:
: CollECTeR (USA) 2000
:
: The Fourth CollECTeR Conference on Electronic Commerce will be held on
: Tuesday April 11, 2000 immediately preceding KR2000 (Seventh International
: Conference on Principles of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning). This
: workshop is intended to attract researchers interested in all aspects of
: Electronic Commerce.

: words). Papers should be original and not previously published. All papers
: will be reviewed by two members of the Programme Committee, experienced
: researchers with extensive expertise in the area. Accepted papers will be
: published in the Proceedings, which will be available, in CD-ROM form, at
: the Conference itself; and from the CollECTeR web site,
: http://www.collecter.org/. Additional copies of the Proceedings on CD-ROM
: will also be available for purchase. Authors will be required to transfer
: a non-exclusive right to publish the paper within the conference
: proceedings (in CD-ROM, WWW and paper forms) but this does not preclude
: the authors from later publication of the paper elsewhere. The conference
: offers an opportunity for all those interested in researching Electronic
: Commerce to meet in a specialised venue to discuss research activities,
: findings and experiences. The conference is intend to be strongly
: interactive and to promote general discussion, prior to the conference,
: each paper to be presented will be sent to one or more discussants who
: will facilitate the debate.

: CAiSE*00 Workshop on
:
: Infrastructures for Dynamic Business-to-Business Service Outsourcing (ISDO'00)
:
: Stockholm, June 5 (afternoon) and 6 (morning), 2000
:
: 2nd Call for Position Papers and Participation
: (http://www.zurich.ibm.com/~hlu/ISDB2BO/)
:
: OBJECTIVE AND SCOPE
:
: The objective of the workshop is to provide a platform to discuss models
: and technologies for service outsourcing. The emphasis of the workshop will
: be on the integration of the dynamic establishment, set-up, and enactment of
: service relationships that connect the business processes of service providers
: and consumers, establishing virtual enterprises.
:
: Now-a-days, many production companies integrate their procurement processes
: using online marketplaces and network-based supply chain management systems.
: However, this is not the case for the service industry. While many service
: organisations have already automated their internal business process management
: (e.g. using workflow management systems, enterprise resource planning (ERP)
: systems, for example), service marketplaces remain an uncommon phenomenon. The
: reason for this is that the integration of service sales, service enactment,
: and customer interaction with the service process still appears to be highly
: difficult. This is particularly the case where complex services, such as
: insurance and complex logistics for example, involve considerable customer
: interaction.
:
: The integration of virtual marketplace service procurement/sales with
: configuration and enactment of dynamic, interactive business processes raises
: many issues that have to be addressed:
:
: - Contract Establishment: How to establish contracts which describe services
: in terms of their functionality, quality guarantees, the customer support
: facilities, etc. in a manner which facilitates the advertising and searching
: for compatible services?
: - Fulfillment Policy: How to describe enactment policies, how to specify the
: fulfillment policy for quality guarantees?
: - Service Set-up and Configuration: How to exploit the contracts when setting
: up the infrastructure in the consumer and provider organisations?
: - Backend Integration: How to integrate the market related activities with the
: core business process systems?
: - Consumer Interaction: How to facilitate the management of outsourced services
: by the service consumer?
: - Assessment: How to evaluate whether the service was profitable, successful
: (post execution)?
: - Conflict Handling: How to resolve conflicts and disputes about service
: fulfillment?
:
: Some of these issues are being addressed in a domain specific manner (e.g.
: telecommunication industry). Furthermore, some existing solutions which
: address part of the problem cannot inter-operate with other existing solutions.
: What appears to be lacking is an integrated approach to the problem.
:
: The purpose of this workshop therefore is to:
:
: - Get an overview of ongoing projects and upcoming products.
: - Compile requirements for integrated service outsourcing infrastructures.
: - See whether existing standards help address the problems.
: - Learn from the experience of successful or unsuccessful deployments.
: - Serve as a starting point for community-building activities in this field.
:
: INTENDED PARTICIPANTS
:
: Researchers and professionals from academia and industry that are working in
: the fields of electronic marketplaces, ontologies, description languages,
: electronic catalogues, workflow and other business process management systems,
: service gateways, or related subjects.
:
: SUBMISSION OF POSITION PAPERS AND PUBLICATION
:
: Participants are required to submit a position paper outlining results or work
: in progress, or experience reports.
:
: Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
: - Electronic service marketplaces.
: - Service description languages.
: - Electronic contract representation.
: - Electronic contract signing.
: - Electronic service catalogues.
: - Service gateways.
: - Service configuration.
: - QoS measurement and management.
: - Integration with ERP systems.
: - Integration with other service enactment management system platforms.
: - Integration with Workflow management systems.
: - Business and legal issues of service outsourcing.
: - Interactive service management by the service consumer.
:
: Position paper must not exceed 2500 words. Depending on the quality, a summary
: of the workshop and the most interesting (or all) position papers will be
: published in a journal.
:
: IMPORTANT DATES
:
: Position papers due: March 14, 2000
: Notification of acceptance: April 17, 2000
: Workshop: June 5 (afternoon) and 6 (morning), 2000

: E-Knowledge: the contemporary quest for electronic commerce and
: knowledge management
: -------------------------------
: Edited by: Ray Hackney & Dennis Dunn - Macmillan Business Publishing
: -------------------------------
: The growth of electronic commerce is vast, complex and expanding
: rapidly. The emerging 'world net' of applications has now become a
: critical enabler for global diversity and trade.
:
: Coupled with this phenomena is the need to identify, exploit and
: manage the consequent 'rippling pool' of knowledge that is generated
: from these activities.
:
: Electronic Commerce (EC) and Knowledge Management (KM) in the new
: millennium - juxstaposition or synthesis?
:
: High quality papers are sought which address these themes through both
: conceptual and empirical contributions. Initial expressions of
: interest and abstracts should reach the editors by January 28, 2000
