-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: The 3rd International Conference on Ubiquitous Intelligence and Computing (UIC-06) Datum: Mon, 30 Jan 2006 20:26:57 -0500 Von: Mieso Denko <denko(a)cis.uoguelph.ca> Antwort an: Mieso Denko <denko(a)cis.uoguelph.ca> Firma: "OptimaNumerics" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.optimanumerics.com> Our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this CFP. ********************* UIC-06 ************************* The 3rd International Conference on Ubiquitous Intelligence and Computing (UIC-06) - Building Smart Worlds on Real and Cyber Spaces - http://grid.hust.edu.cn/uic06/ Organized by Huazhong Univ. of Sci. and Tech. (HUST) Co-Sponsored by HUST, NSFC, 863, ChinaGrid, IFIP In Cooperation with the IEEE Computer Society (Applying) Wuhan and Three Gorges, China, September 3-6, 2006 ****************************************************** Following ubiquitous computers, networks, information, services, etc., is a road towards a smart world (SW) created on both real and cyber spaces. A SW is mainly characterized by ubiquitous intelligence (UI) or computational intelligence pervasive in the physical world, filled with ubiquitous intelligent or smart things, that are capable of computing, communicating, and behaving smartly with some intelligence. One of the profound implications of such ubiquitous smart things is that various kinds and levels of intelligence will exist ubiquitously in everyday objects, environments, systems and even ourselves, and possibly be extended from man-made to natural things. "Ubicomp" or "percomp" can be regarded as the computing of all these intelligent/smart things/u-things, that are essential elements and components of the SW. A smart thing can be endowed with different levels of intelligence, and may be context-aware, active, interactive, reactive, proactive, assistive, adaptive, automated, sentient, perceptual, cognitive, autonomic and/or thinking. Intelligent/smart things is an emerging research field covering many disciplines. A series of grand challenges exist to move from the ubiquitous world with universal services of any means/place/time to the SW of trustworthy services with the right means/place/time. UIC-06 is a successor of the 2nd Int'l Symposium on Ubiquitous Intelligence and Smart Worlds (UISW2005, Japan, Dec. 2005) which succeeds the 1st Int'l Workshop on Ubiquitous Smart Worlds (USW2005,Taipei, Mar. 2005). It offers a forum for researchers to exchange ideas and experiences in developing intelligent/smart objects, environments, and systems as well as discuss various personal/social/physical issues faced by UI and SWs. Topics include but are not limited to the following: 1. Ubiquitous Intelligent/Smart Objects * Electronic Label, Card, E-Tag and RFID * Embedded Chips, Sensor & Actuator * MEMS, NEMS, Mote & Biometric Device * Everyday Good, Artifact, Robot, etc. * Smart Appliance and Wearable Device * Material, Textile, Cloth, Furniture, etc. * Emerging Intelligent/Smart Objects * Embedded Software and Agents 2.

[Fwd: Special Session on "Multi-objective Machine Learning" submission deadline extended]

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: Special Session on "Multi-objective Machine Learning" submission deadline extended Datum: Tue, 31 Jan 2006 09:26:35 +0100 Von: Yaochu.Jin(a)honda-ri.de Organisation: "OptimaNumerics" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.optimanumerics.com> (Apologize if you receive multiple copies of this message.) Call for Papers Special Session on "Multi-objective Machine Learning" 2006 International Joint Conference on Neural Networks (part of WCCI'06) July 16-21, Vancouver, Canada http://www.wcci2006.org/ Organized by Yaochu Jin (yaochu.jin(a)honda-ri.de) URL: http://www.soft-computing.de/CFP_SS_MOML.html The submission deadline has been extended to February 15, 2006 Motivation and Scope: Machine learning usually has to achieve multiple targets, which are often conflicting with each other. For example in feature selection, minimizing the number of features and the maximizing feature quality are two conflicting objectives. It is also well realized that model selection has to deal with the trade-off between model complexity and approximation or classification accuracy. Traditional learning algorithms attempt to deal with multiple objectives by combining them into a scalar cost function so that multi-objective machine learning problems are reduced to single-objective problems. Recently, increasing interest has been shown in applying Pareto-based multi-objective optimization to machine learning, particularly inspired by the successful developments in evolutionary multi-objective optimization. It has been shown that the multi-objective approach to machine learning is particularly successful in 1) improving the performance of the traditional single-objective machine learning methods 2) generating highly diverse multiple Pareto-optimal models for constructing ensembles and, 3) in achieving a desired trade-off between accuracy and interpretability of neural networks or fuzzy systems. This proposed special session intends to further promote research interests in multi-objective machine learning by presenting the most recent research results and discussing the main challenges in this area. Topics include but are not limited to * multi-objective clustering, feature extraction and feature selection * multi-objective model selection to improve the performance of learning models, such as neural networks, support vector machines, decision trees, and fuzzy systems * multi-objective model selection to improve the interpretability of learning models, e.g., to extract symbolic rules from neural networks, or to improve the interpretability of fuzzy systems * multi-objective generation of learning ensembles * multi-objective learning to deal with tradeoffs between plasticity and stability, long-term and short-term memories, specialization and generalization * multi-objective machine learning applications Submission: All special session papers must be submitted no later than January 31, 2005 through the conference webpage at http://139.78.75.247/WCCI-Web_paper_submit.html. Please choose "S.Special Sessions, Sa: Multi-objective machine learning" as your main research topic

This third competition extends the original criteria of the first two competitions which focused on service discovery and service composition based on syntactic matching of WSDL part names. This year, the competition will also include semantic aspects. Since formalisms for representing semantics of services are quite complex and several different proposals/approaches exist, this competition adheres to a traditional approach. The organizers decided to include the computational complexity of semantics in the competition by leveraging classical XML standards. Input/Output messages of the service descriptions will be semantically linked via inheritance relationships as implemented using complex XML Schema types. The participants will be required to determine relations between different types during service discovery and service composition. The WS-Challenge (http://insel.flp.cs.tu-berlin.de/wsc06/) invites the participation of students and researchers addressing the different challenges stated in the Call for Participation and described in more detail in the technical description area. The competition entails the submission of a 2 page description of the approach to be submitted in early 2006. After a peer-review process, the technical descriptions will be included in the workshop proceedings of the joint conference. As a next step later in the spring of 2006, the participants will be required to provide a preliminary version of their software for a pre-competition evaluation stage. The pre-competition evaluation is required in order for teams to participate in the challenge taking place during the conference. Competition details are available at http://insel.flp.cs.tu-berlin.de/wsc06/ Important Dates: ================ * March 15th, 2006 Submission of Technical Description (2 pages, formatting conforming to IEEE CS Press Proceedings) * March 31st, 2006 Notification of Acceptance of Technical Description * April 15th, 2006 Final Version of Technical Description * May 15th, 2006 Pre-Evaluation of Matchmaking Software * June 26th-29th, 2006 Competition on Conference Site For more information contact the co-chairs: =========================================== M.

Most large companies have intrawebs as part of their internal information systems, enabling them to share confidential resources with their employees e.g. organisational structure, corporate templates, HR resources, forms, directory, agendas, news, policies, project descriptions, expert directory, partnerships with external companies, law information, etc. Intrawebs offer a safe place to publish interfaces to corporate 'legacy' data, information systems and shared applications. In many organisations intrawebs became a privileged means for knowledge management. The Web technologies are used internally for servers distributing information, browsers are used to access it and in addition to an economy of scale in terms of building, deployment and maintenance costs, one can also recognize an economy of scale in terms cognitive workload: reusing the same technologies and tools as the World Wide Web to build an organization-wide web of internal documents makes it familiar and easier both for developers and users and from the users' stand point the open web and the intraweb seamlessly integrate in their navigators. Many evolutions of the world-wide web have been adopted and used in internal webs. Even latest web tools meet application scenarios on corporate webs: wikis are used to edit and maintain corporate documents, blogs are used for news and technological watch, etc. Being on a private network of the company, intrawebs can include a whole family of applications that could not be made available on the public web for confidentiality reasons. Within a company the existence of communities and their shared professional interests makes the intraweb a selected place to develop and experiment new web-based solutions. The microcosm of intrawebs has also been used as labs and seeds for new web applications that then spread on the open web. The goal of this workshop is to bring designers, researchers and practitioners together and exchange ideas and experiences concerning intrawebs. *Keywords* intranets, internal web sites and web applications, corporate webs, corporate portals, online corporate memories, corporate web services, corporate semantic webs *Possible subjects include* - Design tools and methodologies for internal portals and web sites; - Usage and usefulness analysis of corporate webs; - Security, privacy, profile-based access to intrawebs resources; - Corporate search engines, directories and novel navigation means; - Web-based management of corporate workflows and knowledge; - Internal web log and feedback analysis to improve accessibility and usability; - Web-based corporate memories, libraries and archives; - Corporate Web applications to foster collaboration (expert matching, acquaintance networks, communities of practices, communities of interest, etc.); - Web-based enterprise application integration; - Corporate wikis, corporate blogs, corporate web services, corporate semantic webs, etc.; - Connection of internal webs and external web. *Motivations and objectives* Historically there has always been a synergy between world-wide web evolutions and intra-webs experiments. Many evolutions of the world-wide web have been adopted and used in internal webs and, vice-versa, many local initiatives on intrawebs turned out to be seeds of new web applications. Nowadays corporate webs are a de facto central piece of corporate information systems. However many options exist (architectures, technologies, policies, etc.) and we should foster the exchange of experiences. This workshops aims at providing a survey of the current trends on intrawebs, foster exchanges of returns on experience, discuss options available when building intrawebs, evaluation criteria and priorities (open vs. secure, content and indexing, etc.). Ideally, it would be the meeting point of a community of practice. This workshop is open: any person interested should have the opportunity to participate. We will rely on reviews by peers chosen from an international program committee; we intend to get three reviews per paper. *Submission* Submissions should be sent to mailto:intrawebs2006@sophia.inria.fr Submission should follow the format of the WWW06 conference. (see http://www2006.org/ ) Submitted papers may be up to 10 pages including all figures, tables, and references. *Dates* - Submissions deadline: February 10th, 2006 - Acceptance notifications: March 10th, 2006 - Camera-ready versions: March 25th, 2006 - Workshop: Tuesday 23rd May at WWW 2006, all workshop presenters must register for the conference before the early registration deadline. *Steering committee* Fabien Gandon and Rose Dieng-Kuntz INRIA, Acacia Research Team 2004 route des Lucioles, BP 93 06902 Sophia-Antipolis Cedex FRANCE *Programme committee* - Jean-Paul Barthès (Technological University of Compiègne) - Richard Benjamins (iSoco) - Sophie de Bonis (INRIA Sophia Antipolis) - Bertrand Braunschweig (IFP) - Michel Buffa (University of Nice - Sophia Antipolis) - Olivier Corby (INRIA Sophia Antipolis) - Oscar Corcho (University of Manchester) - Aldo Gangemi (Institute for Cognitive Sciences and Technology, Roma) - Alain Giboin (INRIA Sophia Antipolis) - Asunción Gómez-Pérez (Universidad Politécnica de Madrid) - Bernard Horan (Sun) - Michel Klein (Vrije University) - Alistair Miles (CCLRC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory) - Colas Nahaboo (ILOG Sophia Antipolis) - Amedeo Napoli (LORIA) - Jean-Francois Nogier (Usabilis) - Alun Preece (University of Aberdeen) - Ulrich Reimer (University of Applied Sciences St. Gallen) - Heiner Stuckenschmidt (Vrije University) - York Sure (University of Karlsruhe) -- ____________ |__ _ |_ http://www-sop.inria.fr/acacia/personnel/Fabien.Gandon/ | (_||_) INRIA Sophia Antipolis - ph# (33)(0)4 92 38 77 88 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: computational.science-unsubscribe(a)lists.optimanumerics.com For additional commands, e-mail: computational.science-help(a)lists.optimanumerics.com Computational Science mailing list hosting is provided by OptimaNumerics (http://www.OptimaNumerics.com) ---------------------------------------------------------------------

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [Pro-it] call for papers - TICE Datum: Thu, 19 Jan 2006 13:34:56 +0100 Von: Gabriele Kotsis <gabriele.kotsis(a)jku.ac.at> Firma: University of Linz An: pro-it(a)ocg.at [We apologize in advance if you receive multiple copies of this message] ************************************************************************ * * * CALL FOR PAPERS * * SUBMISSION DEADLINE: February 10, 2006 * * * * International IEEE Workshop on * * Tangible Interaction in Collaborative Environments (TICE) * * at WETICE-2006 * * * * June 26 - June 28, 2006 * * The University of Manchester, Manchester, U.K. * * Web site: http://wetice.co.umist.ac.uk/ * * * ************************************************************************ OVERVIEW -------- Due to recent technological advances, it has become possible to integrate sensor and actuator technologies as well as wireless communication in everyday objects and environments. These developments open up a huge amount of innovative interaction scenarios, involving new forms of user interfaces. One kind that enables intuitive and natural interaction is tangible user interfaces, referring to interfaces in which persons interact with digital information through the physical environment. Tangible user interfaces are not limited to the interactions of a single person, but can be used to support interaction within - even dislocated - groups and smart artefacts. Motivated by these developments, we see this workshop as an opportunity for exploring the potentials and perspectives of tangible interaction for supporting collaborative work. Because of its interdisciplinary topic, TICE 2006 aims at bringing together researchers of various fields, including Human Computer Interaction, Tangible User Interfaces, Computer Supported Collaborative Work, Sociology, Communication Technologies, Embedded Systems and Ubiquitous Computing, to discuss key issues, approaches, open problems, innovative applications, and trends of tangible interaction in collaborative environments. TOPICS ------ We welcome participants from all disciplines related to the topic of this workshop, including but not limited to Tangible User Interfaces, CSCW and Ubiquitous Computing environments. We invite original research papers and experience reports in all areas of collaborative methods and systems development. Additionally, position papers outlining novel research domains and approaches are welcome. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: Interaction design of collaborative tangible environments * Design process for embodied/tangible interaction * Guidelines, methods and methodologies for collaborative interaction design * Concepts and patterns for physical and tangible interaction * Programming paradigms for building tangible environments * New paradigms for collaborative environments Technological aspects of tangible user interfaces * Middleware, platforms and tools * Architectural concepts for enhancing tangible interaction in groups * Enabling technologies for instrumenting tangible artefacts * Innovative technological solutions Case studies and application scenarios * Usability studies and evaluations of collaborative tangible environments * Visions and application scenarios * Security, privacy and trust in collaborative tangible environments * Collaborative tangible interaction for mobile users DEADLINES AND DATES ------------------- February 10, 2006: Deadline for paper submission April 7, 2006: Decision to paper authors May 5, 2006: Camera-ready papers May 12, 2006: Advance registration discount deadline June 26-28, 2006: WETICE-2006 workshops and on-site registration SUBMISSION DETAILS ------------------ Papers must be written in English, and they should not exceed 6 pages double column, including references, figures and tables. Papers must be formatted according to the IEEE formatting instructions (8.5"x11", two-column). The papers have to contain original contributions not published or submitted elsewhere, and references to related state-of-the-art work. Papers should include a title, the name and affiliation of each author, an abstract of up to 150 words and no more than eight keywords. Each paper will receive at least three anonymous peer reviews by program committee members or additional expert reviewers. The accepted papers and a summary report of this workshop will be published in the post-conference proceedings and directly mailed to the registered authors by the IEEE Computer Society Press after the conference. In order to get an accepted paper published in the proceedings, at least one author has to register and present the paper at WETICE 2006. If enough high-quality papers are submitted, we will contact a journal to explore the possibility of a special issue. Please submit anonymized papers in either PDF or PS format via the TICE 2006 submission website. If you have further questions or remarks, please do not hesitate to contact the workshop organizers. Paper submission website: http://www.pervasive.jku.at/Research/Conferences/TICE_2006 PROCEEDINGS ----------- Accepted and presented papers will be included in the post-conference proceedings, published by IEEE Computer Society Press.
