-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CFP: 2nd Workshop on Advances in Accessing Deep Web (ADW 2009), LNBIP proceedings, deadline: Feb 1 2009 Datum: Mon, 8 Dec 2008 07:03:16 +0100 Von: Dominik Flejter <d.flejter(a)kie.ae.poznan.pl> Antwort an: Dominik Flejter <d.flejter(a)kie.ae.poznan.pl> Organisation: Poznan University of Economics, Dept. Inf. Sys., Integror.Net An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> =========================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS =========================================================================== 2nd Workshop on Advances in Accessing Deep Web (ADW 2009) in conjunction with 12th International Conference on Business Information Systems (BIS 2009) Poznan, Poland April 27, 28 or 29, 2009 http://bis.kie.ae.poznan.pl/12th_bis/wscfp.php?i=11&ws=adw2009 =========================================================================== Deadline for submissions: February 1, 2009 =========================================================================== The main way of accessing content on contemporary Web is by means of general purpose search engines. However, for reasons such as: password protection, FORM based interfaces and usage of dynamic client-side technologies (JavaScript, AJAX, Flash, Adobe Air, and others), a significant portion of modern Web content cannot be indexed and thus is unavailable to the majority of Web users. In many cases these information sources that cannot be indexed, known altogether under the names of Deep Web, Hidden Web or Invisible Web, are better structured and of better quality than indexable surface Web sources. First attempts to index deep Web sources are proving that the task is not trivial. Started recently, Deep Web research combines challenges from several active research areas including information retrieval, information extraction, hypertext, Web engineering, data integration, database technologies and the Semantic Web. The goal of this workshop is to bring researchers and practitioners together to explore the issues and challenges related to domain dependent and independent Deep Web empirical studies, methodologies and techniques of accessing and processing Deep Web content, as well as their real life applications. TOPICS OF INTEREST * Modelling and Describing Deep Web * Models of Deep Web Navigation * Hidden Web Data and the Semantic Web * Description of Deep Web Sources Contents * Description of Deep Web Sources Querying Capabilities * Addressing Content and Data in Deep Web Sources * Semantic Annotation of Deep Web Sources * Standards Supporting Deep Web Access (XForms, SiteMap) * Empirical Studies of Deep Web * Research on Deep Web Size and Topicality * Deep Web Content and Quality Studies * Domain-Specific Deep Web Sources Studies * Comparative Studies of Deep Web and Surface Web Content * Working with Deep Web Sources * Probing Deep Web Sources * Classification and Clustering of Deep Web Sources * Handling Client-Side Technologies (JavaScript/dHTML/AJAX) for Deep Web Access * Extraction of Data from Deep Web * Deep Web Sources Discovery * Archiving and Preservation of Deep Web Content * Methods of Deep Web Indexing * Data Integration from Deep Web Sources * Deep Web Sources Selection * Rewriting Queries for Deep Web Sources * Matching and Mapping of Deep Web Sources Schemas * Methods of Deep Web Meta-Search * Data mashups * Applications of Deep Web Research * Monitoring Hidden Web Data * Cases and Best Practices of Deep Web Data Usage * Business Models of Deep Web Data Integration * Legal and Ethical Aspects of Using Deep Web Content * Detecting and Disabling Deep Web Harvesting SUBMISSION * Long papers: max. 12 pages * Work-in-progress reports: max. 6 pages * Demo papers: max. 4 pages Papers must be submitted in PDF format according to Springer LNBIP template available from http://www.springer.com/east/home/computer/lncs?SGWID=5-164-7-487211-0.

[Fwd: [isworld] cfp BPMDS'08: workshop on business process modeling development and support]
by Gustaf Neumann 07 Dec '08

07 Dec '08

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] cfp BPMDS'08: workshop on business process modeling development and support Datum: Sun, 7 Dec 2008 14:31:06 +0200 Von: Pnina Soffer <spnina(a)is.haifa.ac.il> Antwort an: Pnina Soffer <spnina(a)is.haifa.ac.il> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> In Conjunction with CAiSE’09 The 10th Workshop on Business Process Modeling, Development, and Support BPMDS'09 http://lams.epfl.ch/conference/bpmds09 Drivers of Business Process Development: Business, IT, Compliance 8-9 June, Amsterdam, The Netherlands sponsored by IFIP WG8.1 (International Federation for Information Processing Working Group 8.1) New business processes are created and existing ones evolve following different kinds of drivers or motivations. BPMDS’08 was dedicated to business process life-cycle, discussing issues such as how to streamline transitions among phases in the life-cycle of a business process (design, deployment, operation-evaluation). The next BPMDS will be devoted to the drivers related to these phases and to their transitions, and how they can be accommodated into a broader and dynamic view of the business process life-cycle. The research question will be what "drives" the wheel (the business process life cycle) when it turns to reach a moving business target with regard to market changes and continuous improvement requirements. We distinguish three groups of these drivers, which can exist separately or in any combination in real life situations. First, business objectives and goals drive the creation and evolution of business processes. Evolution of business processes can be driven by attempts to improve the achievement of business objectives (based on their measurement), or by the need to adapt to changes in these objectives. Research issues related to business drivers include their systematic identification, integration into process design and evolution, performance measurement, and others. Second, the availability of new IT systems (any kind of components-on-the-shelf) can drive both the creation and evolution of business processes. The introduction of new information systems can enforce or enable or require the design of new business process; new possibilities of business process management or assessment can drive the evolution of the processes. Research issues related to IT drivers include business process-IT alignment, process mining and others. Third, the need to comply with external standards and regulations may drive the creation of new business processes and the evolution of existing ones. Research issues related to compliance drivers include constrained process design, compliance assurance and verification, and others. There may be other drivers that do not fall in any of these categories, and they are of interest to the workshop as well. About the Workshop The BPMDS series has produced 9 workshops from 1998 to 2008. Seven of these workshops, including the last six (BPMDS’03 – BPMDS’08) were held in conjunction with CAiSE conferences. The topics addressed by the BPMDS workshops are focused on IT support for business processes. This is one of the keystones of Information Systems theory. We strongly believe that any major conference in the area of Information Systems needs to address such topics independently of the current fashion. The continued interest in these topics on behalf of the IS community is reflected by the success of the last BPMDS workshops and the recent emergence of new conferences devoted to the theme. The goals, format, and history of BPMDS can be found on the web site: http://www.ibissoft.se/bpmds.html Topics for Discussion The discussion will address the following main questions: · What are the drivers or factors that initiate/demand change in business processes · How to cope with/introduce changes required by different drivers · How to discover that it is time for a change · How to discover that change has already happened (uncontrollable changes), and there is a need to explicitly change process definitions/operational instructions. Specific issues related to these main questions include but are not limited to: · Specific drivers and how they affect the business processes · Assessing the extent to which business process initiatives achieve their goals · Methodologies for business process design to follow specific drivers · Methodologies for goal-oriented process design and evolution · Compliance-oriented business process design and evolution · Business-IT alignment through business processes · Shareholder, stakeholder, customer and market requirements on business processes · Assessing the impacts of IT market power, IT market evolution, IT standards on - business processes - business strategy - IT strategy · Assessing the impacts of IT Governance on business processes and IT processes · The role of process mining in business process evolution Submissions Prospective workshop participants are invited to submit a paper related to one or more of the main topics. The paper selection will be based upon the relevance of a paper to the main topics, as well as upon its quality and potential to generate relevant discussion. Three kinds of submissions are possible. (1) Full papers of up to 13 pages in LNCS format (please follow the instructions at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html). (2) Short position papers of up to 6 pages, devoted to research in progress or to visionary ideas. (3) Industrial experience papers of up to 6 pages (see guidelines in http://www.ibissoft.se/users/ilia/exp_guidelines.htm). The papers should be emailed to Selmin.Nurcan(a)univ-paris1.fr, indicating the kind of paper submitted. Publications Accepted papers will be published in the workshop proceedings (joint with EMMSAD), to be published by Springer LNBIP. After the workshop, the workshop material together with a selection of the best papers will be considered for publishing in a special issue of an international journal (previous special issues were for instance, BPMDS'07 in IJBPIM (under edition), BPMDS'06 in IJBPIM, vol. 3, issue 1, 2008, BPMDS'05 in SPIP, vol. 12, issue 1, 2007) Important dates Submission deadline: February 18th 2009 Notification of acceptance: March 13th 2009 Camera-ready papers due: March 20th 2009 Organizers Selmin Nurcan, University Paris 1 Panth?on Sorbonne, France Rainer Schmidt, Aalen University of Applied Sciences, Germany Pnina Soffer, University of Haifa, Israel Roland Ukor, School of Computer Science, University of Manchester, UK Industrial Advisory Board Ilia Bider, IbisSoft, Sweden.

[Fwd: [isworld] Green IT/IS Information and Organization Special Issue]

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] Green IT/IS Information and Organization Special Issue Datum: Fri, 5 Dec 2008 19:45:37 -0500 Von: Susan Winter <SusanWinter59(a)gmail.com> Antwort an: Susan Winter <SusanWinter59(a)gmail.com> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> CALL FOR PAPERS (SPECIAL ISSUE) INFORMATION AND ORGANIZATION Editor-in-Chief, Daniel Robey, PhD �Green IT/IS: The Role of Information Technology/Systems in Environmentally Sustainable Organizations� Deadline for submission of papers: June 30th, 2009 Guest Co-Editors: Marie-Claude Boudreau, University of Georgia (mcboudre(a)terry.uga.edu) Susan J. Winter, Portland State University (susanwinter59(a)gmail.com) Recently, issues of environmental, social and cultural sustainability have received increased attention in the media and in business. Little more than a moral concern in the past, sustainability is now on the radar screen of many organizations. Indeed, these organizations are seeking to change their poor environmental practices resulting in many forms of waste (e.g., unused resources, energy inefficiency, noise, and emissions) while improving productivity, reducing costs, and enhancing profitability. The IT industry has also shown great interest in sustainability, singling out �Green IT� as the most important strategic technology for 2008. It is also expected that the Green IT service market will reach nearly $5 billion by 2013. A growing body of research on environmental sustainability has been developing in the fields of management, engineering and ecology. However, hardly any research on this topic can be identified in the field of information systems. Information systems have been the greatest force for productivity improvement in the last half century, offering enormous convenience and significant benefits. Though information systems have been implicated in serious environmental threats, they could be of profound importance in the pursuit of organizational, environmental, social and cultural sustainability. Indeed, underpinning many sustainability initiatives is some form of computing power and intelligent systems. It is clear that the adoption and use of information technologies and information systems have sustainability implications. Future IT and IS innovations may expand and exaggerate these effects. Given that little research attention has been paid to the role of IT/IS in sustainability, it is unclear how Green IT/IS can or will contribute to or impede sustainability efforts. In addition, organizations may not fully appreciate the potential role of IT/IS in sustainability. The goal of this special issue is to consider how theory can inform green IT/IS practice, what sustainability lessons can be learned from green IT/IS practice, and how green IT/IS can play a role in sustainability. We invite high quality articles related (but not limited to) such topics as: 1. Development of green IT/IS infrastructure, systems, products, applications, policies, practices, etc. 2. The role of IT/IS in sustainability 3. Awareness, adoption and diffusion of green IT/IS 4. Emergence of green IT in the greentech industry 5. The emergence of regional and global de-facto green IT standards 6. Links among green IT/IS, sustainability practices, organizational and environmental performance 7. The design, implementation, and use of IT/IS to reduce organizations� environmental impact 8. Issues surrounding the assessment of information systems sustainability 9. The use of IT/IS to change human behaviours towards sustainable business practices Both quantitative and qualitative studies that contribute to our understanding of the role of IT/IS in sustainability are encouraged. Cross-disciplinary studies and those that make significant contributions to theory building and practice are particularly welcome. Papers for consideration for publication in this special issue should be submitted by email by June 30th, 2009 and will be double blind reviewed. Submissions should conform to the Information and Organization guidelines. Manuscripts should be submitted electronically to http://ees.elsevier.com/inforg/. Please provide a cover letter stating that the submission is for the special issue. Contact either of the Special Issue editors for further submission instructions.

The Information Systems division of the Administrative Sciences Association of Canada (ASAC) invites you to submit a paper, symposium, or poster for the 29th Annual Conference which will meet in Niagara Falls, Ontario, from June 6 to 9, 2009. The IS Division at ASAC has a history of well-attended and lively, yet friendly and constructive sessions. IS division participants at ASAC have also enjoyed excellent distinguished speaker presentations from leading IS researchers. This year will be no exception as Dorothy Leidner, Ferguson Professor of Information Systems at Baylor University, is scheduled to be our guest speaker. The ASAC IS Division will accept three types of submissions; Papers, Panels/Symposia/Workshops and Posters. Details for each type are provided below. All submissions must be made electronically on the conference web site http://asac2009.somethingon.com (the submission page will be made available in the near future) to the IS Division in Microsoft Word. On a separate page, indicate the authors� names, addresses, telephone numbers, fax numbers, and email addresses and to whom all communications should be directed. Students should also indicate their status and the school in which they are enrolled. Please make sure that your submission is as complete as possible in all respects prior to submission since there is very little time to revise once a submission has been accepted. Submissions must not have been published or presented elsewhere. All contributions must be received no later than January 30, 2009, using the conference web site. Papers Papers should not exceed fifteen (15) single-spaced pages in length (Times New Roman, 11 point), including author information, the paper title, abstract, footnotes/ endnotes, tables, figures, and appendices but excluding references. To appear in the Proceedings, papers must conform to the ASAC Typing Style Guide. Panels/Symposia/Workshops Members interested in assembling a symposium or workshop should prepare a detailed description of its overall purpose and focus and the specific role of each participant. The submission should include a title, abstract and relevant information about each presenter. Posters The poster format offers authors the opportunity to submit less developed but high-potential ideas. One-page abstracts of the posters will be submitted made available to conference attendees, and at the conference, they will be encouraged to identify posters in which they have an interest and offer comments to the author(s). The poster session allows researchers to present their ideas under development to the group in a more relaxed format, and PhD students are especially encouraged to submit posters. To participate in the poster session authors should submit a 5-page (maximum) description of the idea, and should append the phrase �Poster Session� to the title of their paper. Authors with accepted posters will be responsible to present the research at ASAC in the poster session. Please note that the deadline for submissions will be strictly enforced. Do not hesitate to get in touch with us for any questions or additional information. We look forward to seeing you in Niagara Falls.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CfP BUSITAL workshop at CAiSE 2009 Datum: Fri, 5 Dec 2008 10:04:20 -0500 Von: Hans Weigand <h.weigand(a)uvt.nl> Antwort an: Hans Weigand <h.weigand(a)uvt.nl> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> 4th Int.Workshop on Business/IT Alignment and Interoperability Amsterdam, June 9, 2009, in conjunction with the CAiSE�09 conference. Papers due: February 22, 2009 http://busital09.isis.tuwien.ac.at/ Organizations are today becoming more and more dependent on their information systems and other kinds of IT-based support systems to realize their business strategies, building value networks with partners, and manging their resources effectively. But how can organizations ensure that their IT investments are well aligned with the needs of the business? A number of frameworks and methods have been designed to help managers in aligning business and IT. Such alignment is a critical �early stage� activity to understand how information systems contribute to business strategy and to set directions for the development and maintenance processes that follow. Recently, novel methods and techniques based on conceptual and enterprise modeling have been proposed to support mutual alignment between business needs and IT solutions. BUSITAL�09 is a forum for practitioners and researchers that want to explore the benefits, challenges and solutions of business and IT alignment. Specific topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Frameworks for modeling business strategy: Techniques and methods for capturing and understanding those components of business strategy that profoundly impact information systems landscapes. * Systems methodologies and frameworks for guiding information system design using relevant information in business strategy models/definitions, including traceability issues. * Models, methods, and tools for indicating, analyzing, and measuring alignment, including business activity monitoring * Solutions for guiding information systems evolution and adaptation using relevant information in business strategy models/definitions, including IT governance. * Case studies and empirical reports on the benefits and costs of alignment. * Business/IT alignment in organizational networks, including co-creation of value through global networks * Alignment issues in Service-Oriented analysis and design Program Commitee Eric Dubois Public Research Centre Henri Tudor, Luxembourg Jaap Gordijn Vrije Universiteit, The Netherlands W.
