-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] EJIS special issue on RFID Datum: Wed, 30 Apr 2008 16:59:20 +0200 Von: Sarah Spiekermann <sspiek(a)wiwi.hu-berlin.de> An: <wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de> Call for Papers European Journal of Information Systems (EJIS) http://www.palgrave-journals.com/ejis/index.html Special Issue on Managing RFID Projects in Organizations Radio frequency identification (RFID) allows automated identification of products by embedding chips with wireless antennas or objects and has been adopted in many application areas ranging from inventory control in supply chain management to customer relationship management in retailing. The key advantage of RFID is that it leads to increased visibility of items, pallets or people on the move and allows for real time querying of the location of these entities. The increased data on movement of items has the potential to enhance various activities related to organizational decision making such as demand forecasting, shelf space management, target marketing, prevention of stockouts, among others. A new market research report from IDTechEx covering the adoption and usage of RFID reveals some surprising new trends. In 2005, 1.8 billion RFID tags were sold and it is estimated that the market for RFID will increase to $24.50 billion by 2015. Among RFID tags sold worldwide, it is estimated that by 2010, 48% of the RFID tags will be sold in East Asia, followed by 32% in North America (IDTechEx, 2005). This optimistic report is in sharp contrast to the finding that only 9% of retailers have adopted RFID technologies and among them only 29% of the retailers opened a RFID enabled pilot store by the end of 2006 (Kilcourse, 2006). There is no denying that in spite of the tremendous fanfare on RFID by the popular press, organizations remain cautious and conservative when it comes to the adoption of RFID technologies. Many organizations set up pilot programs to test RFID technology in their operations but withdraw later on due to uncertainties related to return on investment or lack of technical know-how. The theme of the special issue will be to discover the challenges faced by organizations in execution of RFID projects. It will address every aspect of RFID project management starting from requirements analysis, to implementation, and maintenance. It will include papers that examine either successful or unsuccessful RFID projects and garner important lessons learnt from such projects. This special issue will focus on advancing research in RFID project management by publishing forward-thinking, rigorous research that stimulates future research in this area. The special issue will encourage research that uses empirical, analytical, or case study approaches and either strives to generate insightful theoretical principles, provide validation of existing theories in the context of management of RFID projects, or compare and contrast RFID project management with other enterprise system implementation projects. Research from diverse academic disciplines such as information systems, operations management, computer science, operations research, marketing, strategic management, and other related areas are welcome for this special issue. We seek original manuscripts that are previously unpublished and that present an interdisciplinary approach in solving problems related to the theme. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following: l Protocols for RFID project management l Requirements analysis for RFID projects l Estimating return on investment for RFID projects l Managing financial and human resources for RFID projects l Automating RFID projects l Knowledge management in RFID projects l Evaluation of RFID projects l Critical success/failure factors for RFID projects l Outsourcing RFID projects l Risk assessment for RFID projects l Projects to integrate RFID technology with enterprise systems l Scheduling and time management in RFID projects l Strategic and financial impacts of RFID projects l Tradeoff analysis in RFID projects l Benchmarking and standardizing RFID projects l Addressing security and privacy in RFID projects l Barriers and smart solutions for RFID project management l Country and industry specific studies on RFID project management Guest editors for special issue: Dr. Indranil Bose The University of Hong Kong bose(a)business.hku.hk Dr. Eric Ngai The Hong Kong Polytechnic University mswtngai(a)inet.polyu.edu.hk Dr Thompson S.H.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CFP: IJBIDM Special Issue on "OLAP Intelligence" Datum: Wed, 30 Apr 2008 11:51:32 -0400 Von: Alfredo Cuzzocrea <cuzzocrea(a)si.deis.unical.it> Antwort an: Alfredo Cuzzocrea <cuzzocrea(a)si.deis.unical.it> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> International Journal of Business Intelligence and Data Mining Special Issue on �OLAP Intelligence: Meaningfully Coupling OLAP and Data Mining Tools and Algorithms� http://si.deis.unical.it/~cuzzocrea/IJBIDM2008/ Aim and Scope ------------- Nowadays, it is widely recognized that OLAP technology provides powerful analysis tools for extracting useful knowledge from large amounts of data stored in different and highly-heterogeneous formats, and very often distributed across networked settings ranging from conventional wired environments to innovative wireless and P2P networks. Several advantages confirm the benefits coming from such an analysis model: (i) the amenity of �naturally� representing real-life data sets that are multi-level, multidimensional, and highly-correlated in nature; (ii) the amenity of analyzing multidimensional data according to a multi-resolution vision; (iii) the rich availability of a wide class of powerful OLAP operators (such as roll-up, drill-down, slice-&-dice etc) and queries (e.g., range-, top-k, iceberg and gradient queries); (iv) the integration of OLAP with more complex analysis tools coming from statistics, time series analysis, and Data Mining. An elegant and successful solution in this line of research consists in coupling OLAP and Data Mining tools and algorithms, which is the basis of the so-called OLAM � OnLine Analytical Mining model, proposed by Jiawei Han in his seminal paper in 1997. Basically, this proposal consists in meaningfully combining the powerful of OLAP with the effectiveness of Data Mining tools and algorithms capable of discovering interesting knowledge from large amounts of data (e.g., the data cell set of a given OLAP data cube) by means of clustering, classification, association rule discovery, frequent item set mining, and so forth. During the last decade, researchers have devoted their attention on the issue of meaningfully coupling OLAP and Data Mining tools and algorithms, leading to the term �OLAP Intelligence�, which can be reasonable considered as one of the emerging research topics of next years in the context of knowledge discovery methodologies. This great interest is essentially due to both exciting theoretical perspectives, such as complexity issues of executing time-consuming Data Mining routines over very large OLAP data cubes, and relevant application issues, which have a great impact in a plethora of real-life scenarios ranging from conventional distributed database management systems and cooperative information systems to innovative data stream management systems and sensor network data analysis tools. Despite these efforts, many aspects need to be further investigated in order to achieve a reliable convergence between OLAP and Data Mining, thus making this technology a reference for next-generation data-intensive analysis tools. Among those, we recall: - Data Warehouse Support for OLAM Architectures - Database Support for OLAM Architectures - Complex Knowledge Representation Models for Data Cubes in OLAM - Complex Knowledge Reasoning Models for Data Cubes in OLAM - OLAP Data Cube Integration - Advanced Clustering Algorithms for Very Large OLAP Data Cubes - Advanced Classification Algorithms for Very Large OLAP Data Cubes - Advanced Association Rule Discovery Algorithms for Very Large OLAP Data Cubes - Advanced Frequent Item Set Mining Algorithms for Very Large OLAP Data Cubes - OLAM over Multiple Data Sources - OLAM over Highly-Heterogeneous Data Sources - OLAM over High-Dimensional Datasets - Multi-Cube Mining Algorithms - Multi-Layer Mining Algorithms for OLAP Data Cubes - Mixture Models in OLAM - OLAM over Imprecise/Incomplete Data Sources - Statistical Tools for Very Large OLAP Data Cubes - Probabilistic Tools for Very Large OLAP Data Cubes - Privacy Preserving OLAP - OLAP Visualization - Intelligent Clustering Methodologies for Large Sets of OLAP Data Cells - Feature Selection for Data Mining Algorithms on OLAP Data Cubes - Data-Mining-Aided OLAP Browsing - Data-Mining-Aided OLAP Exploration - Data-Mining-Aided Interactive Analysis of Very Large OLAP Data Cubes - Machine Learning for OLAP - Ensemble Analysis of Mining Results Extracted From Very Large OLAP Data Cubes - Intelligent Interpretation of OLAM Results - Constraint-based OLAM - Performance Issues for OLAP (e.g., Data Cube Compression Algorithms) - Query Languages for OLAM - Query Evaluation Plans for Complex OLAM Procedures - Integration of SQL with OLAM Procedures - Novel OLAM Paradigms - OLAM in Specialized Context: Web, XML, RDF, Ontology Bases, Data Stream, Sensor Network Data, RFID, Peer-To-Peer, Process-Log Repositories, Workflow Management Systems, E-Commerce, B2B, B2C etc The Special Issue �OLAP Intelligence: Meaningfully Coupling OLAP and Data Mining Tools and Algorithms� of the International Journal of Business Intelligence and Data Mining, InderScience Publishers, will explore these research themes and will be focused on theoretical foundations as well as innovative models, techniques, algorithms and applications of OLAP Intelligence.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] SKM2008 - Call for Papers Datum: Mon, 28 Apr 2008 16:30:29 -0400 Von: Jaideep Vaidya <jsvaidya(a)rbs.rutgers.edu> Antwort an: Jaideep Vaidya <jsvaidya(a)rbs.rutgers.edu> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> ====================================================================== 2008 Workshop on Secure Knowledge Management (SKM 2008) November 3-4, 2008, Richardson, TX, USA URL: http://cs.utdallas.edu/skm2008 CALL FOR PAPERS ====================================================================== Knowledge management is the methodology for systematically gathering, organizing, and disseminating information. It essentially consists of processes and tools to effectively capture and share data as well as use the knowledge of individuals within an organization. Knowledge Management Systems (KMS) promote sharing information among employees and should contain security features to prevent any unauthorized access. Security is becoming a major issue revolving around KMS. Security methods may include authentication or passwords, cryptography programs, intrusion detection systems or access control systems. Issues include insider threat (protecting from malicious insiders), infrastructure protection (securing against subversion attacks) and establishing correct policies and refinement and enforcement. Furthermore KMS content is much more sensitive than raw data stored in databases and issues of privacy also become important. Since the attacks in 2001, many organizations, especially the US government, have increased their concern about KMS. With the advent of intranets and web-access, it is even more crucial to protect corporate knowledge as numerous individuals now have access to the assets of a corporation. Therefore, we need effective mechanisms for securing data, information, and knowledge as well as the applications. The proposed workshop in Secure Knowledge Management will help in raising the awareness of academics and practitioners in this critical area of research and develop important questions that need to be tackled by the research community. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Secure Languages (Secure Knowledge Query Manipulation Language, Security Assertion Markup Language, B2B Circles of Trust) - Return of Investment on Secure Knowledge Systems - Digital Rights Management (Digital Policy Management) - Secure Content Management (Secure Content Management in Authorized Domains, Secure Content Delivery, Content Trust Index) - Knowledge Management for National Security (Securing and Sharing What We Know: Privacy, Trust and Knowledge Management, Identity Security Guarantee, Building Trust and Security in the B2B Marketplace) - Security and Privacy in Knowledge Management - Wireless security in the context of Knowledge Management The workshop will have a best paper award as judged by the program committee. Proceedings ================ All the papers will be compiled on a CD-ROM. Selected papers will be recommended for submission to a special section in a journal such as MIS Quarterly and Information Systems Frontiers (tentative). Paper Submission ================ Authors are requested to submit extended summaries not exceeding 2 pages, including five to ten key words, and contact address.

Please feel free to distribute it to those who might be interested. ====================================================== Use In Context Between adaptivity and adaptation in context-based interactions Workshop at the Informatik 2008 September 12, 2008 Munich, Bavaria, Germany http://kalu.fernuni-hagen.de/Informatik2008/ Extended Submission Deadline: May 9, 2008 ======================================================= Context-based systems slowly emerge from research settings to usage practice. Consequently, next to questions dealing with the technological feasibility, questions dealing with the manageability and transparency of context-based services from a user perspective come to the fore. In particular, ubiquitous computing applications help bridging between virtual and real-world context dimensions (both, concerning virtual and real context sensors and virtual and real context factors). The resulting system often remains intransparent to users, it is not immediately accessible recurring on conventionalized behavioural practices. This workshop aims to contribute on the one hand to the collection of use-oriented problems in context-based interaction. Furthermore, we aim to discuss resulting implications regarding the technical design of interfaces as well as soft- and hardware architectures. Special attention is given to context modeling and implementation of the various application scenarios as well as to the associated possibilities of manual (adaptability) or automatic (adaptivity) in-use-adjustment. A further special area of interest within a user-oriented perspective is the understanding of problem dynamics in scenarios with multiple-context systems and –technologies, and problem dynamics of emergence or evolution of context-based systems. We would like to invite in particular researchers and practitioners to contributions dealing with the following questions: - What practical experiences – positive as well as negative – have been made with regard to the usage of context-based systems in real organizational settings? What experiences have been made with adaptation mechanisms (automatic as well as interactive) of such systems in these settings? - How can relations between context descriptions/models, context sensors and context-based services become describable in a way that they can be inform end users? What framing conditions apply for interfaces that aim to achieve this? - What experiences have been collected with ontologies and folksonomies? How can systems be designed more practice-oriented? - How can context architectures be effectively designed for sustainable usages (Context evolution, context adaptation, traceability for end-users)? - How do architectures look like that are appropriate for the realization of context-adaptive systems that remain modifyable in-use? What services have to be provided by such a context-adaptive system? What interfaces are needed for a context-dependent adaptation of the system behavior? The contributions should derive out of various application areas, such as - Context-based Information Retrieval - Location-based Services - Mixed-Media Environments - Tagging Systems, other Semantic Web Applications - Mobility Services - Knowledge Management and Knowledge Media Creation - Community Applications We request for contributions to those topics in relation to research as well as practice. Guidelines for papers ===================== The papers should not exceed six pages. They may be written in German or English language (English preferred). Accepted papers will be published in the workshop volume of the Informatik 2008. The guidelines of the GI (http://www.gi-ev.de/service/publikationen/gi-edition-lecture-notes-in-infor… ) for authors have to be considered and all papers have to be handed in via EasyChair (http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=informatik2008ws).

Goal-oriented frameworks and methods for requirements engineering (GORE) have been keynote topics at requirements engineering conferences, and at major software engineering conferences. What are the conceptual modeling foundations in these approaches? Traditionally information system engineering has made the assumption that an information system captures some excerpt of world history and hence has concentrated on modeling information about the Universe of Discourse. This is done through conceptual modeling that aims at abstracting the specification of the required information system, i.e., the conceptual schema, from an analysis of the relevant aspects of the Universe of Discourse about which the user community needs information. This specification concentrates on what the system should do, that is, on its functionality, serving as a prescription for system construction. Whereas conceptual modeling allowed system developers to understand the semantic of information and led to a large number of semantically powerful conceptual models, experience demonstrates that it often fails in supporting the delivery of systems that were accepted by the community of users. Indeed, a number of studies have shown that many systems fail due to an inadequate understanding of the requirements they seek to address. Furthermore, the amount of effort needed to fix these systems has been found to be very high. To correct this situation, it is necessary to view information systems as fulfilling some purpose in an organisation. Understanding purpose, goals, and intentions is a necessary condition for the design of successful systems. Conceptual modeling therefore needs to go beyond functionality requirements that specify the �what,' to encompass the deeper contextual understanding of the �whys.' The why questions are answered in terms of organisational objectives and the desires and motivations of stakeholders and participants. modeling the �whys' helps in requirements elicitation, validation, and specification in a more focused manner. Goal-oriented approaches in requirements engineering has emerged to meet this expectation. The Workshop aims to provide a forum for discussing the interplay between requirements engineering and conceptual modeling, and in particular, to investigate how goal- and intention-driven approaches help in conceptualising purposeful systems. What are the fundamental objectives and premises of requirements engineering and conceptual modeling respectively, and how can they complement each other? What are the demands on conceptual modeling from the standpoint of requirements engineering? What conceptual modeling techniques can be further taken advantage of in requirements engineering? What are the upcoming modeling challenges and issues in GORE? What are the unresolved open questions? What lessons are there to be learnt from industrial experiences? What empirical data are there to support the cost-benefit analysis when adopting GORE methods? Are there applications domains or types of project settings for which goals and intentional approaches are particularly suitable or not suitable? What degree of formalization and automation or interactivity are feasible and appropriate for what types of participants during requirements engineering? e.g., business domain stakeholders, requirements modellers, ontology engineers, etc. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * modeling and semantics in GORE frameworks * analysis and reasoning with intentions and goals * ontological and epistemological foundations * cognitive, behavioral, and sociological perspectives * goals, scenarios, and business process modeling * goals and viewpoints, management of conflicts and inconsistencies * goals in requirements and design patterns * goals in reuse * goals and traceability * goals and aspects * change management, versioning and view management for GORE * visualization and tool support for GORE * software engineering process and organization for GORE * GORE and agile methods * GORE in distributed software development * GORE for COTS system development and selection * GORE for product families and high-variability software * GORE for adaptive systems and agile enterprise * comparison and evaluation of GORE approaches * industrial experiences and empirical studies * GORE for services engineering * GORE and business modeling and strategy reasoning * goal-oriented conceptual modeling for security, privacy, and trust * goal-oriented modeling for user experience and interaction design * goal-oriented modeling of system architecture * interaction and integration with other conceptual modeling paradigms, e.g., object-oriented and agent-oriented models * goal-oriented modeling for specific application domains - e.g., healthcare, e-government, mobile commerce, ambient intelligence PAPER SUBMISSION Format and Duration: We aim for a highly interactive forum.
