Fwd: Business Rules on the Semantic Web
by Gustaf Neumann 12 Mar '02

12 Mar '02

---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: Business Rules on the Semantic Web Date: Tue, 12 Mar 2002 16:05:11 +0100 From: "Wagner, G.R." <G.R.Wagner(a)TM.TUE.NL> To: ISWORLD(a)LISTSERV.HEANET.IE International Workshop on Rule Markup Languages for Business Rules on the Semantic Web 14 June 2002, Sardinia (Italy) in conjunction with the First International Semantic Web Conference (ISWC2002) and hosted by SIG2 (languages and standards) of the OntoWeb Network See http://tmitwww.tm.tue.nl/staff/gwagner/RuleML-BR-SW.html Workshop Description: The workshop will focus on how rule markup languages, such as RuleML, will contribute to the vision of the Semantic Web. The Semantic Web offers a research perspective for automating business processes. Rule markup languages, that allow to express business rules as modular, stand-alone units in a declarative way, and to publish them and exchange them between different systems and tools, will play an important role for facilitating business-to-customer (B2C) and business-to-business (B2B) interactions over the Web. *Derivation rules* can be included in an ontology to define derived concepts on top of base concepts. In this way, for instance, derived business terms, such as customer categories, may be defined. Whenever a rule refers to an incomplete predicate, for which explicit negative information has to be represented along with ordinary (positive) information, a second negation, supplementing negation-as-failure, is needed (as in the formalism of extended logic programs). Using this negation in the head of a rule, one can express conflicting rules that may defeat each other. Such a language for *defeasible rules* is useful to represent business rules allowing for exceptions. In addition to derivation rules, there is another type of rule which allows to specify the reactive and communicative behavior of a system or agent: *Reaction rules* -- in other contexts also called 'event-condition-action (ECA) rules' or 'triggers'. Business rules that specify the various steps of a business process can be encoded in the form of reaction rules. A general markup language for business rules has to accommodate these different types of rules and support their interoperation. Topics of Interest: We encourage submissions on all topics related to rule markup languages. In particular, we solicit papers on * reaction rules on the Semantic Web - event/action languages - execution models * defeasible rules on the Semantic Web - defeasible concept definitions in ontologies - resolving conflicts in triggered action sets Other suggested topics include: * tools and systems for rules on the Semantic Web * combining rules and ontologies * integrating rules and description logics * multiple language rules (Prolog, SQL, OCL, XML, RDF, etc.) * future application scenarios based on RDF, ontologies and rules * RuleML-based applications * deployment of rule-based applications on the Web * rule-based software agents and the Semantic Web * connecting rules to legacy knowledge bases * integrating rule bases and distributed fact bases * handling lineage and reliability of distributed information * processing negative information with negation(s) * using URIs in rules * XSL transformations of rules * <yourTopic ... \> Submission: We invite articles of no more than 15 pages length describing original completed work, work in progress, or interesting problems or use cases. Submitted papers will be fully refereed based on the originality and significance of the ideas presented as well as on technical aspects. Publication of accepted papers in the form of post-workshop proceedings is being planned. Please email your submission by 26-April-2002 in PDF or Postscript format to one of the workshop co-chairs.

Fwd: ICT Conference Nepal

---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: ICT Conference Nepal Date: Mon, 11 Mar 2002 15:04:40 +0800 From: Harris <harris38(a)NETVIGATOR.COM> To: ISWORLD(a)LISTSERV.HEANET.IE Call For Papers The International Conference on Information Technology, Communications & Development December 1-3, 2002, Kathmandu, Nepal In the years since the development of the world wide web, an increasing number of people also in developing countries have been using information communication technology (ICT) to bring about change in their work methods and environment and to speed up the development process. Development organizations, NGOs, media houses, government agencies, schools and many individuals make use of ICT in one way or another. Yet, many questions are to be asked: - What are the results? - What is the context between ICT and development? - Is the www so powerful in development as many people think it is? - Are the priorities of big development organizations right when it comes to using ICT or would the better money be spent on other projects? - Can ICT really a make difference in the poorest parts of the world? - What are the prerequisites to apply ICT in remote areas in Nepal, for example? - What impact has ICT on society? - Which are the lessons to be learnt and experiences to be shared? - What policies are required, especially in developing countries, to facilitate the use and access to ICT? There are also questions regarding how global networking of like-minded people through the web can make a difference in policy advocacy and social equity for example. As the technology advances, the gap between the information haves and have-nots is widening. The digital divide becomes more and more apparent. To highlight and discuss these issues, the Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung (FES-N) in Nepal started the conference on Information Technology, Communications and Development (ITCD) in 2001. ITCD 2001 (www.itcd.net), which was hosted in Kathmandu, drew more than 30 speakers from 14 different countries. Altogether 130 participants attended. Encouraged by the feedback from last year, the conference for 2002 is now announced. The objectives of the conference are to learn from one another and also to draw up recommendations for better policies and better projects that benefit people, particularly in developing countries. The conference aims to create a network of like minded people working in the area for IT&C, who can meet at least once a year to share ideas and experiences. Six topics have been identified for presentation and discussion. The main focus across all these areas would be on youth, gender, e-health, and how technology can help in building democratic societies. But the list is not exhaustive and ideas are welcome. - Appropriate Information Technologies - IT, Youth and Volunteerism - Using ICT in Development - Society, Web and Gender - Policy and Legislation - Internet and democratization We value inputs made available to the conference and invite papers and proposals for presentation. The conference will be attended by academics, development workers, media practitioners as well as ICT experts from Nepal and other countries. Selected papers will be offered fast-track approval for publication in a special edition of the Electronic Journal on Information Systems in Developing Countries (EJISDC). Selected papers from the 2001 conference are now available in Volume 8 at http://www.ejisdc.org/. Please send papers/proposals for presentations to Alfred.Diebold(a)fesnepal.org. Further information about the conference is available on the web at http://www.itcd.net Paper / proposal submission deadline: 30 August 2002 Confirmation for presentation deadline: 30 September 2002 Full paper / presentation submission deadline: 30 October 2002.

Fwd: Call for Chapters - Virtual Teams
by Gustaf Neumann 12 Mar '02

12 Mar '02

---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: Call for Chapters - Virtual Teams Date: Mon, 11 Mar 2002 15:41:02 +1300 From: "Pauleen, David" <David.Pauleen(a)SCIM.VUW.AC.NZ> To: ISWORLD(a)LISTSERV.HEANET.IE Apologies for Cross-Postings CALL FOR CHAPTERS Submission deadline April 30, 2002 Virtual Teams: Projects, Protocols and Processes A book edited by David J. Pauleen, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand Virtual teams are a relatively new phenomenon and by definition work across time and distance through the use of information and communications technology. Virtual teams may communicate and work synchronously or asynchronously through such technologies as electronic mail, bulletin boards, audio/video/data conferencing, automated workflow, electronic voting and collaborative writing. Virtual teams are playing an increasingly important role in organizational life and are often assigned not only the most important tasks in an organization, such as multi-national product launches, negotiating mergers and acquisitions among global companies, and managing strategic alliances, but also day-to-day management, project, and supplier and customer-relations work. Since 1995, the practitioner press has been publishing "how to" books and articles on virtual teams. It has only been the last few years, however, that journal articles on field-based virtual teams have been published. There is a clear and definite need to gather the best of academic-based research on virtual teams into one book. The primary objective of this book will be to present a series of research-based articles on virtual teams and important related issues. Emphasis will be on practical applied research. Thus we need a collection of industry-based research work on virtual teams which will address how virtual teams are used within organizational contexts, how virtual team members work together, and the key human processes that affect virtual teamwork and team-task success. An important underlying theme in these areas is the use and effects of ICT in virtual teams. Representative topics include but are not limited to the following: Virtual Teams in the Organization Virtual team tasks and projects, virtual teams and organizational structure (the networked or virtual organization), virtual teams and organizational support such as HR, IT, and management, virtual teams and knowledge management, etc. Virtual Teams and ICT The latest in synchronous and asynchronous communication channels and distributed groupware and GDSS as it applies to virtual teams, task/projects and communications, decision making etc. Virtual Teams Protocols Organizational, virtual team leader and/or team member-generated protocols (rules, regulations, guidelines) for virtual teams and their impact on virtual team effectiveness. Virtual Team Processes Virtual team membership selection and member skills, leadership, the development of personal and working relationships and trust, communication, cultural issues, etc. SUBMISSION PROCEDURE Researchers and practitioners are invited to submit on or before April 30, 2002, a 2-5 page manuscript proposal clearly explaining the mission and concerns of the proposed chapter. Authors of accepted proposals will be notified by June 15, 2002 about the status of their proposals and sent chapter organizational guidelines. Full chapters are expected to be submitted by October 15, 2002. All submitted chapters will be reviewed on a blind review basis. I am pleased to announce that the book will be published by Idea Group Inc., publisher of the Idea Group Publishing, Information Science Publishing and IRM Press imprints. Inquiries and Submissions can be forwarded electronically (Word2000)) to: David J.

Fwd: CFP: Learning in Dynamic, On-line Environments
by Gustaf Neumann 12 Mar '02

12 Mar '02

---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: CFP: Learning in Dynamic, On-line Environments Date: Sun, 10 Mar 2002 18:31:09 -0500 From: Bud Gibson <fpgibson(a)UMICH.EDU> To: ISWORLD(a)LISTSERV.HEANET.IE Full details available at: http://cmot-special.bus.umich.edu Call for Papers: Special Issue of Computational and Mathematical Organization Theory on Learning in Dynamic, On-line Environments Submission deadline: November 15, 2002 Over the past decade, the commercialization of the Internet and related communication technologies has dramatically increased the opportunities for dynamic interaction between individuals and organizations. Organizations now have the ability to form and reform alliances with business partners much more rapidly than they have in the past and are generally able to more rapidly reconfigure themselves in response to success and failure in the environment. Similarly, individuals are able to rapidly consume large amounts of information, more easily alter relationships, and learn from their experience. In the past few years, a number of theoretical and empirical observations have been made regarding individual and organizational learning in similar dynamic contexts. However, many issues remain unresolved such as: 1. How well theoretical models of learning in dynamic environments correspond to how organizations and individuals actually learn. 2. The extent to which organizations and individuals acquire re-usable knowledge in dynamic contexts and ways to aid that learning. 3. The synergy (or lack thereof) between organizational and individual learning in these environments. Papers are sought that identify factors influencing organizational and individual learning in the types of dynamic environments brought about by the communication revolution of the past ten years. We invite submissions based on diverse methods and different levels of analysis. We welcome innovative contributions and are especially interested in papers that combine computational modeling and empirical data. All papers will be subject to a rigorous refereeing process. Manuscripts must not exceed 35 double-spaced pages (in 12 pt type) including all tables and figures per the instructions for authors set forth at http://cmot-special.bus.umich.edu. Inquiries regarding the special issue may be addressed to the guest editor, Bud Gibson (cmot-special(a)umich.edu). To submit a paper for consideration in the special issue, please send five copies to: Melissa Andersen CMOT Special Issue: Learning in Dynamic, On-line Environments Editorial Office Kluwer Academic Publishers 101 Phillip Drive Norwell, MA 02061, U.S.A. ___________________________________________________________________ |The Sender assumes responsibility that this message conforms to the |ISWorld list policy and conditions of use available at: |http://www.isworld.org/isworldlist |----------------------- ISWorld Net Footer ------------------------ | Need help with ISWorld? -> http://www.isworld.org/isworldlist | If you can't find an answer contact isworld_manager(a)cornell.edu |___________________________________________________________________ -------------------------------------------------------
