CALL FOR PAPERS
Information Technology & People
Special Issue: IT Management in the Middle East
The widespread diffusion of Information Technology (IT), e.g., computers
and data telecommunication technologies and applications, has reached
all corners and regions of our world including the Middle East. The
proliferation of IT in Middle Eastern nations has many serious
implications for these countries inasmuch as it is IT that can set the
stage for many economic, social, and even political reforms essential
for the development of this region. The success of decision-makers in
public and private organizations operating in this part of the world to
understand how to exploit IT in accordance with their particular work
environments and national values will facilitate the accomplishment of
these aspired developments. Furthermore, with the increased
globalization of the world economy, many organizations interested in
entering the promising marketplace of the Middle East may need to get a
sense of the particulars of IT diffusion in this region. Unfortunately,
little research is currently available about the state of IT management
in Middle Eastern nations. The purpose of this special issue of
Information Technology & People is to provide a forum for topics
addressing IT management issues in Middle Eastern countries. Conceptual
and empirical contributions including frameworks, field surveys,
experiments, and case studies from authors around the world are strongly
encouraged.
This first of a kind special issue intends to incorporate a wide array
of IT management issues in Middle Eastern countries. Papers dealing with
(but not limited to) the following topics are invited:
· National level strategies of information technology
· Information technology infrastructure issues at national and
organizational levels
· Information architecture and planning issues at the organizational
level
· Issues relevant to determining the value of IT Investments
· Performance issues of IT projects and applications
· Professional development of information technology specialists
· The design and implementation of culturally-sensitive IT applications
· Accounts of national readiness for the digital economy
· Emergent applications of IT (technology incubators, technology
inclusion, etc.)
Submission Guidelines:
All submissions must be in English, should represent original work of
the author(s), and must not have been published/accepted for publication
or currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. All
contributions will be subjected to a double-blind review process.
Manuscripts should be prepared according to Information Technology &
People (http://www.emeraldinsight.com/itp.htm) format. There is no page
limit on paper submissions. Submission can be made electronically to:

Call for Papers
Focus Theme: eGovernment
Dear Colleagues:
EM - Electronic Markets is a key forum for advancing
the understanding and practice of electronic markets
and commerce
(http://www.electronicmarkets.org).
Guest Editors: Klaus Lenk, University of Oldenburg
Roland Traunmüller, University of Linz
With eCommerce having achieved striking success,
eGovernment is presenting another challenge, especially
in the fields of Electronic Public Services Delivery, of
Government-to-Government and Government-to-Business
cooperation, and of Electronic Democracy. Yet eGovernment
is a huge field, and careful investigation into specific
aspects of governance is needed. Complex processes of
decision and policy making as well as multipolar
relationships with stakeholders in the production of
public goods require advanced types of IT support which
will often go beyond achievements in the private sector.
It is indispensable now to define the role of eGovernment.
It has the potential of becoming the key for modernising
and indeed for reformatting and reinventing government in
all its aspects, provided that we do not conceptualise it
in too simplistic a way. Public governance in the 21st
century can profit enormously, as IT and the Internet are
becoming prime drivers of New Public Management reforms,
inspiring new visions, ventures, and exciting activities.
In a not too distant future, institutions, structures and
activities of governance in the Public Sector may change
dramatically.
This special issue intends to break new ground in
understanding the revolutionary aspects of eGovernment as
well the continuous and laborious way evolution proceeds.
So our editorial view is to encourage papers in both
directions: Making explicit the design options and the
fundamental traits of eGovernment as well offering a view
on the various construction sites of eGovernment where
so much exciting progress under way deserves special attention.
A list of relevant topics includes yet is not limited
to the following:
1.) eGovernment strategies, implementation policies and
best practice
2.) Funding policies and business models for sustainable
eGovernment
3.) Critical distinctions between eCommerce and eGovernment
4.) Intergovernmental and international cooperation for
developing eGovernment
5.) The future role of local government with regard to
eGovernment
6.) "Single-window" access to public, non-profit as well
as commercial services combined with multichannel
distribution schemes
7.) Citizen information systems and communication with
citizens
8.) Providing equal access and avoiding discrimination in
using eGovernment services
9.) Redesigning cooperative processes within and between
agencies
10.) Reorganisation of business processes "outside-in"
11.) Public Sector portals
12.) Platforms for secure online transactions with a
multitude of back offices
13.) Integrating back office services; "Seamless Government"
14.) Standards for secure transactions, information
interchange and process-related data formats
15.) Legal requirements concerning online transactions;
data protection, freedom of information, and consumer
protection
16.) Infrastructures for trusted communication
17.) eProcurement
18.) Support of mobile government field services (e.g.
forest rangers, customs, social workers, emergency management)
19.) Support of policy making, Roundtables, negotiation
and mediation processes, citizen participation in public
affairs and democratic deliberation and voting
20.) Knowledge management in Public Sector organisations
21.) Advanced tools for decision support, data mining,
simulation and Augmented Reality
22.) New forms of social and technical networking: ad-hoc
co-operation and coalition between public agencies and
public-private-partnerships
23.) Organisational implementation and management of change
EM accepts short papers up to 2500 words, or long papers
up to 5000 words. Please refer to the Contributors

Subject: CONFERENCE ANNOUNCEMENT - FM 1 NEW DEFINITIONS: VALUE COMMUNITY S PACE
Date: Tue, 23 Oct 2001 12:05:43 +0200
From: Rita Walczuch <R.Walczuch(a)BERFIN.UNIMAAS.NL>
To: ISWORLD(a)LISTSERV.HEANET.IE
---------------------------------------
CONFERENCE ANNOUNCEMENT
FM 1 NEW DEFINITIONS: VALUE COMMUNITY SPACE
November 4-6, Heerlen/Maastricht, The Netherlands
http://www.infonomics.nl/newdefinitions/
---------------------------------------
Please distribute!
The impact on society of the technologies of "digitisation" has transcended
the limits of any single discipline. It is universal and ubiquitous,
affecting everything. But how does this digitisation affect our basic
concepts about society - such as value, community, law, space?
This conference will bring together the world's leading thinkers and doers
in various fields - from anthropology to law, economics to information
technology - to ask: What, if anything, is new about the way we redefine
our understanding of these concepts?
Topics covered include:
----------------------
- notions of value, non-monetary economic activity,
- measurement without prices, free software
- the meaning of money, electronic currencies
- communities, social networks
- reputation, trust and identity
- formal and informal law, dissappearing borders and Internet jurisdiction
- space and navigation
- political space, government, new media and freedom
- geographical space, access, impact and inequality
Format and speakers
-------------------
This conference is uniquely designed to contrast opinions from different
disciplines in sessions linked by common themes: Value, Community, Space. A
special Crosstalk session each day brings together participants from the
different themes in debate, to elicit a broader understanding of the issues
that face us.
The conference emerges from First Monday's reputation as a source of
quality ideas and research on digitisation and society. Beginning with
keynote presentations from two of First Monday's well-known editorial board
members: Esther Dyson and Anthony Rutkowski, this conference draws on First
Monday's long list of authors, some of the foremost thinkers in their
fields. Confirmed speakers include
Wilfred Dolfsma, International Institute of Infonomics
Paul Duguid, Xerox Palo Alto Research Center
Kasper Edwards, Technical University Denmark
Andreas Harsono, Institute for Studies of Freeflow of Information, Jakarta
Leo van Hove, Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Bernt Hugenholtz, Institute for Information Law, Amsterdam University
Christopher Kelty, Rice University, Houston
Bruce Perens, Open Source evangelist, Hewlett-Packard,
David Post, Temple University School of Law
Howard Rheingold, author, "The Virtual Community"
Richard Rogers, University of Amsterdam
Richard Wiggins, Michigan State University
Who should attend
-----------------
This conference will offer insights into issues that are critical to
economic, social and technological development in Europe as well as
worldwide. It will appeal to everyone concerned with the emerging
understanding of digitization and its impact on society, policy and
business. We expect as participants academics, corporate officers,
government policy makers, thinkers and activists from around the world.
Registration
------------
Online registration and hotel reservation forms, as well as the conference
programme are available at http://www.infonomics.nl/newdefinitions/
The conference is jointly organised by First Monday - the peer reviewed
journal of the Internet (www.firstmonday.org) and the International
Institute of Infonomics (www.infonomics.nl). For more information and
sponsorship opportunities please contact Conference Coordinator Kamini

BIOGRAPHY OF WORKSHOP CHAIR:
Professor Vladan Devedzic (Associate Professor) is both an active
researcher and a practitioner in the field of intelligent systems. His
major long-term professional goal involves a continuous effort to bring
together ideas from the broad fields of intelligent systems and software
engineering. He has written more than 150 papers (20 of which have been
published in internationally recognized journals by publishers such as
ACM, IEEE, Pergamon Press). He has also written three books on
intelligent systems. Both his M.Sc. and Ph.D. theses software
engineering of intelligent systems. He has developed several practical
intelligent systems and tools, and actively participates as a consultant

First Call For Paper
9th International Symposium on
TEMPORAL REPRESENTATION AND REASONING
(TIME-2002)
http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/img/TIME-2002/
Manchester, UK
7-9 July, 2002
The purpose of this symposium is to bring together active researchers
from distinct research areas involving representation of, or reasoning
with, time. As with previous meetings in this respected series, one
of the main goals of this symposium will be to bridge the gap between
theoretical and applied research in temporal representation and
reasoning. Thus, we especially encourage submissions concerning
temporal aspects within areas such as Artificial Intelligence,
Temporal/Spatial Databases and Applications of Temporal Logic in
Computer Science in order to achieve a multi-disciplinary perspective
on the topic and to benefit from cross-fertilisation of ideas.
There are three tracks in the symposium with separate program
committees, all overseen by the program chairs. The symposium is
planned as a three-day event, and will be organised as a combination
of technical paper presentations, an extended poster session, one or
more panels, an industrial session, a system/tool demonstration
session, and three keynote talks.
Submission of high quality papers describing mature results or
on-going work are welcome. Submitted papers should describe original,
previously unpublished, research, should be written in English, and
should not be simultaneously submitted for publication elsewhere.
Topics of interest within the scope of each track include, but are not
restricted to:
Track1: Temporal Representation and Reasoning in AI
- temporal aspects of agent-based systems
- temporal constraint reasoning
- reasoning about actions and change
- temporal languages for planning
- temporal languages and architectures
- ontologies of time
- expressive power versus tractability
- belief and uncertainty in temporal knowledge
- temporal learning and discovery
- time and nonmonotonism
- time in problem solving (e.g. diagnosis, scheduling,...)
- time in human-machine interaction
Track 2: Time Management in Databases
- temporal data models
- temporal database design
- temporal query languages
- indexing of temporal data
- temporal database systems
- spatio-temporal databases
- constraint databases
- temporal data mining
- time in multimedia databases
- time in web applications
- time in federated and heterogeneous systems
Track 3: Temporal Logic in Computer Science
- modal temporal logic
- first order temporal logics
- expressiveness, decidability, and complexity issues
- specification and verification
- synthesis and execution
- model checking algorithms
- temporal theorem proving
- temporal languages and architectures
- temporal logics for distributed systems
- temporal logics of knowledge
- hybrid systems
- tools and practical systems
PAPER SUBMISSION
