Founded in 1995, CRIWG has become a significant forum for academic researchers and professionals to exchange ideas and experiences about problems and solutions related to group technology. Most challenges in the groupware field require a multidisciplinary, multi-methodological approach. CRIWIG seeks papers on groupware from a wide variety of academic perspectives and epistemologies, ranging from collaborative and exploratory research, to theory building and testing, applied research, engineering, and innovative evaluation methods. Researchers can report their ideas, theories, models, designs and experimental results to CRIWG either by submitting full paper contributions, in case of mature works, and shorter papers reporting innovative work in progress. As in previous years, the authors of the best papers will be invited to submit extended versions to selected journals. PhD students are invited to present their research in the doctoral colloquium. The CRIWG 2008 workshop seeks paper contributions on the following key areas: Collaboration Technologies and Technology Issues, for example: -Systems, software, and data architectures for groupware -Jointly authored pages, streaming, and information access technologies -Groupware UI considerations -Groupware development frameworks and toolkits -Groupware Design Approaches -Access control, alerts, attention mechanisms, presence indicators -Privacy, security Collaboration Concepts and Theories, for example: -Group Productivity, efficiency, effectiveness -Collaborative modeling tools -Theory of satisfaction with group work and groupware -Collaborative engineering systems -Theory on acceptance, adoption, and diffusion of groupware and group work practices -Collaboration across and between cultures Aggregated systems, for example: -Group support systems -Workflow management systems -Collaborative project management systems Applications Domains for Groupware, for example: -Medical applications -Academic learning -Emergency management -Mobile collaboration -Productive collaboration in virtual environments Social Aspects of groupware, for example: -Group dynamics -Virtual worlds and communities -Social tagging, folksonomy -Work modeling The CRIWG workshop is supported by the Collaboration Research International Working group on Groupware, an open community of researchers. Traditionally, CRIWG is organized in remote places alternating between the Americas and Europe, with a small number of presentations, fostering critical discussion, team building and collaboration. The location selected for the CRIWG 2008 workshop is Omaha, in the state of Nebraska, USA. The University of Nebraska at Omaha will host and organize the workshop.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] EJIS Call for Papers: Special Issue on t-Government Datum: Sat, 19 Apr 2008 04:50:20 -0400 Von: Sofiane Sahraoui <ssahraoui(a)aus.edu> Antwort an: Sofiane Sahraoui <ssahraoui(a)aus.edu> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> CALL FOR PAPERS European Journal of Information Systems (EJIS) http://www.palgrave-journals.com/ejis/ Special Issue on Transformational Government (t-Gov) Technology integration and management in Government is a burgeoning area of research that explores the use of ICT in public administration, combined with organizational change, new skills to improve public services, and the democratic processes. The phenomenon of Transformational Government (t-Gov) is maturing, with significant research breadth and depth � these domains require integrating together thus, representing a unique multidisciplinary research challenge. Governments around the world have made much progress in developing their eGovernment infrastructures but there is now widespread belief that capitalizing on such investments is more challenging that originally envisaged and hence, the emergence of Transformational Government, which is all about transforming public services as citizens receive them and demonstrating how technology can improve the corporate services of Government such that more resources can be released to deliver �frontline� services. Much Government spending throughout the world has been directed towards �developmental� projects, with an established need having now been identified to reflect and build upon emerging public sector issues. Transformational Government research requires a high quality publishing outlet, clearly targeted at researchers with an interest in this fast moving area of applied research. Transformational Government is a burgeoning phenomenon across the globe, with substantial investment being made to support improvements to infrastructures as well as services to the citizen. Many emerging challenges facing t-Gov are around political, managerial and cultural environmental issues, which are considered unique to the public sector. It is in exploring this area where this special issue of the European Journal of Information Systems seeks to make a contribution to the normative literature. The main objective of the special issue is to discuss past, present and future challenges associated with t-Gov. Reflective analysis of successful or failed exploitations are sought from across the world, where key learning issues can be extrapolated for others to use as a frame of reference. Studies offering a wider project focus from a human, organizational or technical perspective are particularly encouraged. In particular, methodological approaches that adopt exploratory, theory building or testing through case analysis or surveys are welcome. Submission guidelines and important dates Manuscripts should be between 4000-6000 words in length, with all contributions being subjected to a double blind review process. There should be a separate title page giving the names and addresses of the authors. Manuscripts must be sent electronically to one of the guest editors no later than August 31st, 2008, and should follow the guidelines of the European Journal of Information Systems - http://www.palgrave-journals.com/ejis/ Guest Editors Prof. Zahir Irani Head of School Brunel Business School Brunel University Uxbridge, Middlesex UB8 3PH, (UK) Zahir.Irani(a)Brunel.ac.uk Dr Sofiane Sahraoui Associate Professor School of Business Management American University of Sharjah United Arab Emirates ssahraoui(a)aus.edu Dr Ahmad Ghoneim Lecturer Brunel Business School Brunel University Uxbridge, Middlesex UB8 3PH, (UK) Ahmad.Ghoneim(a)Brunel.ac.uk The AISWorld LISTSERV is a service of the Association for Information Systems (http://www.aisnet.org).

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CFP: IJBIDM Special Issue on "OLAP Intelligence" Datum: Sat, 19 Apr 2008 04:24:35 -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] CFP DSJ Special Forum - New Frontiers in Collaborative Decision Making Datum: Fri, 18 Apr 2008 17:05:43 -0400 Von: Paulo Goes <paulo.goes(a)business.uconn.edu> Antwort an: Paulo Goes <paulo.goes(a)business.uconn.edu> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> Call for Papers Decision Sciences Journal Special Topic Forum New Frontiers in Collaborative Decision Making Associate Editor Team Paulo B. Goes, University of Connecticut José A. Pino, University of Chile Asoo Vakharia, University of Florida In recent years, there has been a renewed interest in collaborative decision making in a variety of business settings. One major reason for this could be the increases in globalization of business operations leading to geographically dispersed executives and decision makers. Information technology plays a key role in supporting and facilitating collaborative efforts in these settings and the area of Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) addresses issues in the design, development, and implementation of information technology tools to support group decision making. Some of the well-known IT tools developed in this arena and used extensively today include web 2.0, social networks, wikis, multi-player games, and virtual team environments. From a business perspective, collaborative IT-based tools are vital enablers to address multiple strategic and tactical problems. These include new product design and development, coordination of virtual teams located across continents, vendor and outsourcing management, designing effective and efficient supply chains, and knowledge management systems There are a few documented success stories in the application of IT to support business decision making. For example ECR (Efficient Consumer Response) is one mechanism which has been used to enhance collaborative decision making in the supply chain. Another emerging concept in global corporations is the �24-Hour Knowledge Factory�, which can be used to support the collaborative efforts between globally dispersed team members. However, what seems to be lacking is some focus in terms of problem settings and corresponding tools/technologies to support collaborative decision making. It is time, therefore, to reflect on the value of IT tools and their applicability to support and enhance collaborative decision making. This is the major motivation underlying this STF in the Decision Sciences Journal. Topics of Interest for this special issue on the use of IT tools to support collaborative decision making include, but are not limited to: � Evaluating the current state of the fields of CSCW and decision making; � Reviewing, extending, and developing theoretical paradigms linking these fields; � New IT models, methods and techniques to enhance collaborative decision making; � Application of IT tools in supporting decision making in: o New Product Design and Development; o Supply Chain Management; and o Managing Virtual Teams; � Managing Knowledge �Factories� Building on the editorial mission of Decision Sciences, this STF seeks manuscripts utilizing diverse research approaches such as empirical, simulation, and/or analytical research methods. Articles published in this STF must meet Decision Sciences high standards of research rigor and originality, while embracing managerial relevance, not only in the research problem studied, but also in their impact on enhanced decision making. STFs consist of a collection of three to five articles that are published in a regular issue along with other peer-reviewed articles. Manuscript preparation and submission instructions can be found on journal�s web site at http://decisionsciencesjournal.org/Help/Author/author_Guidelines.cfm. In the cover letter, please indicate that your submission is for the New Frontiers in Collaborative Decision Making STF. The deadline for submissions is November 15, 2008. Manuscripts will be accepted for processing starting August 1, 2008. Associate Editor Team Given the interdisciplinary nature of Decision Sciences, the Associate Editor Team has expertise in both information technology and supply chain management. It is the goal of this STF to foster interdisciplinary knowledge and publish high impact interdisciplinary research that can impact future research in multiple domains.
