---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: Call for Papers - ISJ - E-Commerce Enabled Manufacturing Operatio ns- Deadline January 31 Date: Mon, 24 Dec 2001 12:16:29 -0500 From: Joseph Sarkis <jsarkis(a)CLARKU.EDU> To: ISWORLD(a)LISTSERV.HEANET.IE CALL FOR PAPERS Information Systems Journal E-commerce Enabled Manufacturing Operations: Issues and Analysis The management of materials, information, and other resources in organizations has expanded beyond the role of typical operations managers. Along with the breakdown of internal and external organizational boundaries has come the more open environment that may envelop organizational boundaries. Practitioners and managers throughout the world have realized the enormity and importance of these inter-organizational systems. Central to the development of these systems are concepts, technologies, and tools for electronic commerce. These issues are of critical importance to large, medium, and small-sized manufacturing firms. E-commerce encourages and supports communication and cooperation among various functions, vendors, and customers of organizations. Evolving e-commerce paradigms and practices are expected to be central enablers to operations and manufacturing concepts such as concurrent engineering, design for "x", supply chain management, computer integrated manufacturing, agile and virtual enterprising. Thus, its importance is strategically vital to organizations that wish to remain competitive. Practitioners have realized this importance by spending billions in e-commerce-enabled systems and practices, and supporting processes. Yet, researchers have been slow to critically investigate their roles, especially with respect to manufacturing organizations. Thus, we have decided to help expand the field of knowledge in this area by offering this special issue of the Information Systems Journal. Papers are sought for a special issue, "E-commerce Enabled Manufacturing Operations: Issues and Analysis". Conceptual and strategic frameworks, empirical research, case studies, and analytical models focusing on development, design, management and control of e-commerce-enabled manufacturing and operations systems for improving organizational competitiveness are especially encouraged. Contributed papers may deal with, but are not limited to: Planning for E-commerce in Manufacturing and Operations settings -Organizational strategy, justification, and project management -Models and tools to integrate and incorporate e-commerce within strategic directions -Applications of tools through case studies -Project management models (e-commerce linkages with internal systems) -Enterprise Resource Planning Systems -Web based enterprise integration and management Design and Analysis of E-commerce based Manufacturing systems. -Performance of E-commerce enabled Manufacturing and Operations systems -Decision Tools and approaches for systems development -Integration of e-commerce with existing and new operations business processes and policies -Architectures and Systems Models integrating manufacturing and operations with E- Commerce Operations of E-commerce systems -Capacity and logistics planning and management -Materials management in an E-commerce setting -Scheduling in an E-commerce setting -Supply Chain management within an E-commerce setting -Shop floor operations -Virtual facility layout Monitoring and Control of E-commerce systems -Performance evaluation tools and techniques for E-commerce based operations systems -Decision support and expert systems and their development for the E-commerce enabled manufacturing setting -Cost Management and Product Pricing for E-commerce Enabled Systems Papers will be evaluated on their contribution, suitability to the special issue, and overall quality. Authors should closely follow the guidelines under "Instructions to Authors" of the Information Systems Journal. Please visit the homepage of the journal for further information: http://www.blacksci.co.uk/~cgilib/jnlpage.bin?Journal=isj&File=isj&Page=aims . Manuscripts will be strictly refereed based on the standards of the Information Systems Journal.

Fwd: ODBASE CFP: Ontologys, DataBases, and Applications of Semantics for Large Scale Information Systems
by Gustaf Neumann 23 Dec '01

23 Dec '01

---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: ODBASE CFP: Ontologys, DataBases, and Applications of Semantics for Large Scale Information Systems Date: Sun, 23 Dec 2001 13:04:47 +1100 From: Arkady Zaslavsky <a.zaslavsky(a)MONASH.EDU.AU> To: ISWORLD(a)LISTSERV.HEANET.IE C A L L F O R P A P E R S ============================= International Conference on Ontology's, DataBases, and Applications of Semantics for Large Scale Information Systems (ODBASE) October 29 - November 1, Irvine, California http://www.cs.rmit.edu.au/fedconf/odbase/2002 Proceedings to be published by IEEE Press A key challenge in making the Internet and the Web a more friendly and productive place is to fill more meaning to the vast and continuously growing amount of data on the Net. This is a vision that is shared both by the Worl Wide Web community, incarnated by the notion of the ôSemantic Webö coined by Tim Berners Lee, and researchers from a number of areas including data and knowledge engineering, databases, intelligent agent systems, information retrieval, information sciences and linguistics. The claim is that the emergence of meaning that is associated with data and documents found on the Internet will boost diverse applications such as e-commerce, enterprise and information integration, knowledge engineering, geographic information systems, digital libraries, ubiquitous computing, and intelligent information access. Data semantics and ontologies for large-scale information systems have become an important topic in research communities across several displines, research funding agencies, as well as various industries. The international conference on Ontology's, DataBases, and Applications of Semantics intends to create a forum to exchange views, ideas and experiences on ontologies and data semantics from different disciplines. A goal of the ODBASE conference is to bring researchers from databases, Semantic Web, and knowledge management together to discuss specific problems and promising approaches to providing more meaning for the growing amount of data on the Internet and in ubiquitous computing. A unique character of the ODBASE conferences is its specialization on data semantic issues for very large ontology and Internet systems, and its strong emphasis on interdisciplinarity and practical applicability of systems, tools and methods for supporting semantics in large-scale information systems. The program committee of ODBASE 2002 consists of leading experts from diverse discplines including formal ontology, databases, geographic information systems, library science, logic, and knowledge management. We have special interest in papers that bridge traditionally separated areas such as databases, intelligent systems, and knowledge engineering, and papers that address issues of scalability in data semantics on the Internet and ubiquitous computing systems. ODBASE'02 is part of the Federated Symposium Event that is organized within the global theme "On the Move to Meaningful Internet Systems and Ubiquitous Computing 2002". This federated event co-locates three related and complementary successful conferences in the areas of Intelligent Networked Information Systems, covering key issues in Data and Web Semantics (ODBASE'02), Distributed Objects, Infrastructure and Enabling Technology and Internet Computing (DOA'02), and Workflow, Cooperation, and Interoperability (CoopIS'02), as required for the deployment of Internet- and Intranet-based systems in organizations and for e-business. More details about this federated event can be found at http://www.cs.rmit.edu.au/fedconf. Areas of interest of ODBASE'02 include but are not limited to: * Representation and Storage: Information, Data and Knowledge Modeling Ontology Languages Hypertext and Hypermedia Semi-Structured Data Multimedia Data and Metadata Semantics of E-Services Management of Large Knowledge Repositories Management and Integration of Large Ontology Bases Metadata Repositories Semantic Middleware * Construction and Methodologies: Database Integration E-Service Integration Searching and Managing Dynamic Contents Data and Web Mining Intelligent Information Agents Information Retrieval Filtering and Summarization Multimedia Metadata Annotation Ontology Extraction and Learning Self-organization in Information Systems * Applications and Evaluation: Semantic Web Domain/Application Ontology Ontology of Information Processing Electronic Commerce Digital Libraries Media Archives Enterprise-wide Information Systems Web-based Information Systems Location-dependent information services Web Services and Service Interoperability Information Dissemination Ubiquitous and Mobile Information Systems IMPORTANT DATES Paper Submission Deadline: May 31, 2002 Acceptance Notification: July 15, 2002 Final Version Due: August 20, 2002 Conference: October 30 - November 1, 2002 SUBMISSION GUIDELINES All submitted papers will be carefully evaluated based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of expression. Papers that bridge two or more areas should be marked as BRIDGE papers. They will be reviewed jointly by the appropriate PC sub-areas. All submissions must be in English. Research submissions must not exceed 8,000 words. Submissions can either be in Postscript, MS Word, or Pdf format and should be done through the following URL http://www.cs.rmit.edu.au/fedconf/submit.html The final proceedings will be published by IEEE Press. Failure to commit to presentation at the conference automatically excludes a paper from the proceedings.

Sincerely. Manuel Mora Associate Professor Dept. of Information Systems www.uaa.mx =================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS FOR A SPECIAL ISSUE ON: =================================================================== "MANAGEMENT AND ORGANIZATIONAL ISSUES FOR DECISION MAKING SUPPORT SYSTEMS: FOUNDATIONS, STUDY CASES AND LEARNED LESSONS " -------------------------------------------------------------------- JOURNAL: INFORMATION RESOURCES MANAGEMENT JOURNAL (IRMJ) http://www.idea-group.com/journals/details.asp?id=199 -------------------------------------------------------------------- V. IMPORTANT DATES: January 15, 2002 : 4-page abstract submission due (mandatory). February 15, 2002 : Deadline for first submission. March 1, 2002 : First round review process due. April 1, 2002 : Deadline for second submission. April 15, 2002 : Final round review process due. May 1, 2002 : Camera-ready paper and author bios due. Publication date : Late 2002. -------------------------------------------------------------------- I. RATIONALITY. Decision Making Support Systems (DMSS), have evolved or have been embedded, from classic DSS, EIS and ES/KBS, to or into Intelligent Systems, Web-DSS, OLAP&DW&DM systems, KMS and Enterprise Information and Decision Portals. All of them have offered organizational and individual benefits, such as improved organizational performance, improved decision quality, improved communication, enhanced mental models, amplified analytical skills of decision-makers, and reduced decision time frames. However, despite the availability of emergent IS&IT architectures in the market, successful DMSS are not immediate. Management and organizational barriers in addition to technological issues, must be overcome in order to have successful full implementations of DMSS. For this reason, we seek for articles that report scientific evidences of "Management and Organizational Issues for DMSS: Foundations, Study Cases and Learned Lessons". --------------------------------------------------------------------------- II. MISSION AND AIMS. This Special Issue's mission is to present the core and state of the art knowledge about the theory and application of management and organizational issues relevant to achieve successful implementations of Decision-Making Support Systems (DMSS) in organizations. The main aims are: (1) to generate a compendium of quality theoretical and applied papers on management and organizational issues in DMSS (2) to help diffuse scarce knowledge about effective methods and strategies for successfully designing, developing, implementing, and evaluating DMSS, and (3) to create an awareness among academicians and practitioners about the relevance of DMSS in the current complex and dynamic management environment. -------------------------------------------------------------------- III. TOPICS SOUGHT. Topics of interest include, but not limited to: * Project management of DMSS * DMSS implementation frameworks and models * DMSS development methodologies * Strategies for change-resistance management * Implementation of critical success factors * Lessons learned from failures or successful implementations of DMSS projects * Experiences in development of large-scale projects of DMSS. -------------------------------------------------------------------- IV. INSTRUCTIONS. The suggested length for each manuscript is 20-25 double-spaced typed pages, including graphs, tables, figures, and references. Original papers should be written to conform with the Information Resources Management Journal style guidelines document, which is available upon request. Papers will be evaluated using IRMJ procedures based on a double round blind review made by experts in the field. Please send all submissions electronically to: mmorauaa(a)securenym.net with copy to forgionn(a)umbc.edu and jgupta(a)bsu.edu -------------------------------------------------------------------- VI.

The field is facing new challenges posted by the penetration of the Weband Internet to everyone's daily life, and the changes of the economical and financial environment where database systems are used. However, information on the WWW is placed independently by different organization, thus, documents containing related information may appear at different Web-sites and in different format. In-house data warehousing may be no longer sufficient to support an organization's information needs. Therefore, warehousing of Web data and its integration with traditional databases is an important problem. The aim of this workshop is to provide a forum for articles that bring the challenges in the design, maintenance and implementation of Web based Information Systems, and the opportunity for all involved to debate new issues and directions for research and development work in the future.
