20 May '08

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] Research meets practice - 1st CfP IFIP WG 8.1 Working Conference on the Practice of Enterprise Modeling (PoEM'2008) Datum: Tue, 20 May 2008 10:48:46 -0400 Von: Anne Persson <anne.persson(a)his.se> Antwort an: Anne Persson <anne.persson(a)his.se> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> Call for Papers PoEM�2008 IFIP WG 8.1 Working Conference on The Practice of Enterprise Modeling: from Business Strategies to Enterprise Architectures Stockholm, Sweden http://www.his.se/iki/PoEM2008 Important dates: 30 June 2008, paper submission deadline 15 August 2008 notification of acceptance 12-13, November 2008, Conference Aims and objectives Enterprise Modeling (EM) has gained substantial of popularity both in the academic community and among practitioners. There is a variety of EM methods, approaches, and tools developed and offered on the market. In practice they are used for various purposes such as business strategy development, process restructuring, as well as business and IT architecture alignment and governance. PoEM�08 aims to establish a dedicated forum where the use of EM in practice is addressed by bringing together researchers, users and practitioners. The conference program will feature paper presentations and interactive discussion sessions. More specifically the goals of the conference are: - to develop a better understanding of the practice of EM - to contribute to improved EM practice - to share knowledge among researchers and practitioners - to form a community of researcher and practitioners - to develop a research agenda on the practice of EM The conference theme is EM in different application contexts, e.g. software development, including agile development, as well as business development, governance, and change. Topics relevant for submissions include, but are not limited to, the following: - Evaluation of EM methods from a practice perspective - The process of modeling and guidelines for modeling - Management of EM projects - Use of EM in different contexts - Facilitation and group dynamics - The competency of modelers and modeling teams - Model and process quality aspects - Reuse of enterprise models - Modeling languages - The use of EM in different contexts - Tools and workbenches - Enterprise model management - Success factors in EM - Teaching the practice - EM and agile development - Enterprise knowledge architectures - Standardization issues and reference models - Method engineering in EM - Concordance between EM and information systems development Paper types: Experience papers present problems or challenges encountered in practice, relate success and failure stories, or report on industrial practices. The focus is on 'what' and on lessons learned, not on an in-depth analysis of 'why'. The practice must be clearly described and its context must be given. Readers should be able to draw conclusions for their own practice. Research papers describe original research contributions (theoretical, methodological or conceptual) to the area of EM. A research paper should clearly describe the situation or problem that is tackled, the relevant state of the art, the position or solution suggested and the potential or the evaluated benefits of the contribution. Evaluation papers evaluate existing problem situations or validate proposed solutions with scientific means. Scientific reflection on problems and practices in industry also falls into this category. The topic of the evaluation presented in the paper as well as its causal or logical properties must be clearly stated. The research method must be sound and appropriate. Idea papers can describe completely new research positions or approaches, in order to face to a generic situation that arises because of, for instance, new methods and tools or new types of emerging EM challenges. They must describe precisely the situation and demonstrate the shortcomings of the current methods, tools, ways of reasoning, meta-models, etc. Organizers: Janis Bubenko jr., Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden, General chair Anne Persson, University of Skövde, Sweden, Program committee co-chair Janis Stirna, University of Jönköping, Sweden, Program committee co-chair Lena Aggestam, University of Skövde, Sweden, Organising chair Best wishes, Anne Persson and Janis Stirna Program committee chairs The AISWorld LISTSERV is a service of the Association for Information Systems (http://www.aisnet.org).

Important dates =============== o May 23, 2008: Submission of full papers (new date) o June 13, 2008: Author notification o June 20, 2008: Submission of Camera-ready papers (hard deadline) o August 24, 2008: Workshop at ACM SIGKDD, Las Vegas, USA ====================================================================== Yahoo! Best Paper Award for Web Mining: Through a peer-review process that includes the workshop organizing and program committees, a best paper will be selected based technical quality, innovativeness, and contribution to the field. The authors of the best paper will receive a $500 USD prize supported by Yahoo! Research. ====================================================================== The Web presents a key driving force for a large spectrum of applications in which a user interacts with a company, a governmental authority, a non-governmental organization or other non-profit institution or other users. User preferences and expectations, together with usage patterns, form the basis for personalized, user-friendly and optimal services. Key metrics enabled by proper data capture and processing are essential to run an effective business or service. Enabling technologies include data mining, scalable warehousing and preprocessing, sequence discovery, real time processing, document classification, user modeling and quality evaluation models for them. Recipient technologies that demand for user profiling and usage patterns include recommendation systems, Web analytics applications, application servers coupled with content management systems and fraud detectors. Research advances associated with knowledge discovery on the Web observe the Web as a social medium for exchange and cooperation, as a semantic network where people find information and contribute information (by means of documents, annotations and comments) and as a place for doing business, launching business and promoting business. WEBKDD 2008 will bring together researchers and practitioners on these aspects of the Web. The emphasis is on lessons learned, recent advances and open issues for the next decade. WEBKDD 2008 will be the 10th anniversary workshop on knowledge discovery on the Web, taking place at the KDD since 1999. WebKDD presentations have historically been of high quality and influence, and workshops have in the past attracted not only audience from academia, but also a significant audience from industry and government agencies. Altogether, the papers at the past WEBKDD workshops have accumulated about 940 citations, including 7 patent citations that cite the workshop as the premier reference on the topic of Web usage analysis. (The citations are from Google Scholar, accessed between Feb. 10 and Feb. 12, 2008.) In WEBKDD 2008, we anticipate a wrap-up and lessons-learned from 10 years of research on mining the Web, the Semantic Web(s) and the social Web and a research agenda for the years to come. Workshop Topics =============== The WEBKDD 2008 workshop will invite contributions on mining of all aspects of users' activities in the Web, in particular: - Mining server log (clickstream) data - Web analytics - Web content and structure mining - Modeling users and their interaction with the Web - Mining query log data and web search result mining - Mining users' activities in social venues, ranging from chat fora with emphasis on interaction, to recommendation networks with emphasis on spread of influence - Mining users' activities in venues that foster the capturing of data semantics, e.g. for building the Semantic Web or for the building of folksonomies - web community mining and social network analysis - Enabling technologies for Web mining, including technologies for Web warehousing, data preparation, management of multi-relational data and streams, visualization, and evaluation - Application areas, including recommendation engines, Web communities, Web marketplaces, Web search, Web security and misuse and abuse of the Web and its services. Paper Submission ================ All submissions must be made electronically following the submission information on the Workshop Web site: http://webmining.spd.louisville.edu/webkdd08/ Please use the prescribed formatting guidelines of Springer LNCS which can be found at: http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-7-72376-0 Papers should be no longer than 12 pages (or 5,000 words) inclusive of all references and figures.

The workshop is co-sponsored and hosted by the American University of Paris. The workshop will feature research papers and one or more panels that focus on problems that cut across many traditional IS/T Project Management areas, including, but not limited to, the following topics: virtual project management, agile project management, knowledge networks, project management methodologies, distributed project management, project leadership, project quality metrics, project management standards, best practices in project management, project success, and pedagogical issues. The workshop welcomes high-quality conceptual and empirical contributions that attempt to advance theory and application of project management using any research approach (action research, experimental, grounded theory, design science, survey research, theory development, prototyping, methodology development, PM tool development, etc). All submissions to IRWITPM 2008 must represent original work that has not already been published in a journal or conference proceedings. If the work has been presented at another conference or is currently under consideration for publication or presentation elsewhere, the authors must disclose this fact. At least one author for every accepted paper and all members of every accepted panel must register for the workshop and be prepared to present their ideas in person. Authors of accepted submissions must address the suggestions (if any) of the reviewers and submit an electronic copy of the final version of their work by the specified deadline. Failure to do so will result in withdrawal of this work from further consideration and it will not be included on the final program. All final papers will be published in the form of e-proceedings available via the AIS eLibrary. Submissions may be of three types: � Completed research papers, � Research-in-progress papers, and � Panel proposals. COMPLETED RESEARCH PAPERS As in the past two years, we are extremely pleased to provide IRWITPM 2008 authors presenting at this workshop the opportunity to publish their work in the Journal of Association for Information Systems (JAIS) (http://jais.asinet.org). Selected completed research papers presented at the workshop will be considered for fast track publication in JAIS, guest edited by Deepak Khazanchi (khazanchi(a)unomaha.edu) and Blaize Reich (breich(a)sfu.ca). Authors who do not want to be considered for the special issue should indicate so at the time of submitting their final revision. Authors may be asked to further revise their manuscript subsequent to presentation to address workshop comments, editorial reviews, and any additional requirements of JAIS. JAIS author instructions are available at (http://jais.aisnet.org/format.asp). RESEARCH-IN-PROGRESS PAPERS (RIP) Submissions should include a one-page abstract and a paper that includes the following sections: research objectives and questions, theoretical foundations, research methodology, current status of the project, and a description of what the authors propose to present at the conference. PANEL PROPOSALS Panel proposals should include a general description of the panel, names and affiliations of all panel participants, a statement to the effect that all participants have made a commitment to serve on the panel (if it is accepted), a brief description of each participant's background and expertise related to the panel topic, and a brief description of each participant's views on the topic. IMPORTANT DATES Submission Deadline: September 15th, 2008 Notification of Decision: October 15th, 2008 Revised Manuscripts Deadline: November 1st, 2008 Registration Deadline: November 15th, 2008 WORKSHOP FORMAT AND VENUE The workshop will be held as an all-day meeting on Saturday, December 13th, in Paris, France, prior to the start of ICIS 2008. Participants should plan on arriving the night before for an early start to the meeting. There will be a single track to maximize interaction and participation. Workshop participants will be charged a registration fee that will include lunch and coffee breaks (details will be announced as the conference program is finalized). Additionally, we are considering having a networking dinner reception before the workshop on December 12th hosted at the American University of Paris (AUP) campus. SUBMISSION INFORMATION For completed paper and research-in-progress submissions, authors should identify themselves and provide contact information only on the cover page, as these submissions will be blind reviewed. The second page of the paper should consist of an abstract plus a list of key words describing the main topics of the manuscript (the MISQ keyword list is recommended for use). Papers and panel proposals should be double-spaced to facilitate editing. The manuscript or proposal and any supporting documentation (such as survey instruments) should be sent as e-mail attachments (in MSWord format) to IRWITPM Conference Chair and SIGITProjMgmt Founder, Dr. Deepak Khazanchi at irwitpm(a)sigitpm.org.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] CFP: LaSCoG'08 Datum: Fri, 16 May 2008 15:52:19 -0300 Von: Laurence Tianruo Yang <ltyang(a)gmail.com> Organisation: "OptimaNumerics" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.optimanumerics.com> Second Call for Papers 4th Workshop on Large Scale Computations on Grids (LaSCoG'08) Wisla, Poland, October 20-22, 2008 www.lascog.imcsit.org Large Scale Computations on Grids (LaSCoG) Workshop will be organized within the framework of the International Multiconference on Computer Science and Information Technology (www.imcsit.org) and co-located with the XXIV Autumn Meeting of the Polish Information Processing Society. The emerging paradigm for execution of large-scale computations, whether they originate as scientific or engineering applications, or for supporting large data-intensive calculations, is to utilize multiple computers at sites distributed across the Internet. In particular, computational grids are collections of distributed, possibly heterogeneous resources which can be used as ensembles to execute large-scale applications. While the vision of the global computational Grid is extremely appealing, there remains a lot of work on all levels to achieve it. In this context the LaSCoG workshop is envisioned as a forum to promote exchange of ideas and results aimed at addressing complex issues that arise in developing large-scale computations on Grids and running applications on them. Covered topics include (but are not limited to) Grid-focused aspects of: - Large-scale algorithms - Symbolic and numeric computations - High performance computations for large scale simulations - Large-scale distributed computations - Agent-based computing - Data models for large-scale applications - Cloud computing - Security issues for large-scale computations - Science portals - Data visualization - Performance analysis, evaluation and prediction - Programming models - Peer-to-peer models and services for scalable grids - Collaborative science applications - Business applications - Data-intensive applications Papers submission * Authors should submit draft papers (as Postscript, PDF of MSWord file). * The total length of a paper should not exceed 8 pages (IEEE style). IEEE style templates are available here. * Papers will be refereed and accepted on the basis of their scientific merit and relevance to the workshop. * Accepted and Presented paper will be published in the Conference Proceedings and included in the IEEE Xplore® database. * Extended versions of selected papers will be published in a Special Issue of the Scalable Computing; Practice and Experience journal.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] 8th Workshop on Domain-Specific Modeling @ OOPSLA Datum: Sat, 17 May 2008 04:08:38 +0300 Von: Rossi Matti <Matti.Rossi(a)hse.fi> Antwort an: Rossi Matti <Matti.Rossi(a)hse.fi> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> C A L L F O R P A P E R S ============================= The 8th OOPSLA Workshop on Domain-Specific Modeling October 19-20, 2008 Nashville, USA http://www.dsmforum.org/events/DSM08 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Call for Papers: Domain-Specific Modeling raises the level of abstraction beyond programming by specifying the solution directly using domain concepts. In many cases, final products can be generated automatically from these high-level specifications. This automation is possible because both the language and generators need fit the requirements of only one company and domain. Industrial experiences of DSM consistently show it to be 5-10 times faster than current practices, including current UML-based implementations of MDA. More investigation is still needed in order to advance the acceptance and viability of Domain-Specific Modeling. This workshop welcomes three types of submissions: 1) Full papers describing ideas on either a practical or theoretical level. Full papers should emphasize what is new and significant about the chosen approach and compare it to other research work in the field. The maximum length of a full paper is 4000 words. 2) Position papers describing work in progress or an author's position regarding current DSM practice. The maximum length of a position paper is 2000 words. 3) DSM demonstrations describing a particular language, generator, or tool for a particular domain. The maximum length of a demo paper is 2000 words. During the workshop, the DSM solution presented in the paper can be demonstrated to the participants. Some suggested topics for the workshop include, but are not limited to: - Tools for supporting domain-specific modeling (DSM) - Metamodeling frameworks and languages - Comparison and analysis of model-driven development approaches - Principles for identifying constructs for DSM languages - Industry/academic experience reports describing success/failure in using Domain-Specific Modeling - Novel approaches for code generation from domain-specific models - Approaches to implement Domain-Specific Modeling languages - Issues of support/maintenance of models and evolution of a DSM language in accordance with the representative domain - Version control techniques for DSMs - Specific domains where this technology can be most productive in the future (e.g., embedded systems, product family domains, or systems with multiple implementation platforms) - Techniques for supporting (meta)model interchange between tools - Relationships between ontologies and metamodels --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Important Dates: Initial submission: August 4, 2008 Author Notification: September 4, 2008 (1 week prior to Early Registration deadline) Final version: October 1, 2008 Workshop: October 19-20, 2008 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Submission Information: Papers should be submitted by August 4, 2008. Contributions should be submitted electronically in PDF format at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=oopsladsm08. Submitted papers must conform to the ACM SIGPLAN conference style, using 9pt font (see guidelines at: http://www.sigplan.org/authorInformation.htm). The accepted papers will be published in the printed proceedings and posted on the workshop web site. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Additional Information: Additional information about the workshop (including contact information, past workshop papers, presentations, group work results) is available at the workshop web site: http://www.dsmforum.org/events/DSM08 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Program Committee: Pierre America, Philips Peter Bell, SystemsForge Jorn Bettin, Sofismo Philip T.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CfP: International Workshop on Software Product Management (RE'08 Workshop) Datum: Thu, 15 May 2008 11:29:35 +0200 Von: Slinger Jansen <slinger(a)cs.uu.nl> Antwort an: Slinger Jansen <slinger(a)cs.uu.nl> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> Call for Papers International Workshop on Software Product Management Barcelona, Spain, Friday, September 12, 2008 http://www.cs.uu.nl/groups/OI/IWSPM/ In conjunction with the 16th IEEE International Requirements Engineering Conference Barcelona, Spain, Friday, September 12,2008 http://www.re08.org/ *** Workshop Objective *** In today’s competitive software markets it is of utmost interest to have winning products. The success of any software product depends on skilled and competent product management. Software product management includes product requirements, release definitions, product release lifecycles, creating an effective multifunctional product introduction team and – above all – assuring a winning business case. Indeed software product management is complex: there are many intra- and interorganizational stakeholders, many responsibilities and no formalized education or body of (scientific) knowledge. After the success of last year’s workshop (collocated with the 2006 Requirements Engineering conference in Minneapolis/St. Paul, USA) this workshop aims to continuously increase the body of knowledge for this specific area of requirements and software engineering by providing a forum to exchange ideas and publish baselined results. It will build and shape the community of leading practitioners and research experts. Given the relevance of product management in IT and software companies, and the rather unexplored scientific and industry contribution in this field, the workshop will deliver a state-of-the- practice overview of the available knowledge on software product management, as well as an overview of areas within software product management for further research. *** Topics of interest *** * Product management practices in software and IT domains * Requirements engineering in relation to product and requirements management * Release definition and roadmapping * Product management processes * Product families and product line management * Portfolio management and product life-cycle management * Subcontracting, partnering and incorporation of open-source components * Software supply networks * Service oriented software products * Impacts of subcontracting on product architecture * Product strategy definition and marketing * Measuring and improving the performance of the product manager * Product management skill and competence building * Product management at SME’s * Tools for product management *** Workshop proceedings *** Proceedings of accepted papers will appear in electronic format, in the IEEE CS Digital Library. We are in search of a journal to allow for publishing of extended and revised versions of the best papers. Paper preparation, submission and evaluation We welcome both research and industry papers to IWSPM 2008. Research papers should either not exceed 5,000 words (full research papers) or not exceed 3,000 words (work-in- progress/position research papers). They must be original and not submitted to or accepted by any other conference or journal. To encourage industrial participation we also welcome short industry papers (2,000 words maximum). Papers should be submitted in electronic form (PDF) to the organizers at IWSPM(a)cs.uu.nl. Submissions must be formatted according to the 8.5x11 inch IEEE CS proceedings format. For downloading instructions and templates, go to the Author Forms web page of the IEEE Computer Society, available at http://www.computer.org/portal/pages/ieeecs/publications/cps/cps_forms.html. Three reviewers of the workshop’s program committee will judge the quality of each submitted workshop paper. Proceedings will appear in the IEEE CS Digital Library. *** Important dates *** June 10, 2008: Deadline for workshop submissions; July 17, 2008: Notification of authors; July 31, 2008: Camera-ready papers due. All deadlines are 23:59 Apia, Samoa time. *** Program committee *** * Christof Ebert, Vector Consulting Services, Germany * Sjaak Brinkkemper, Utrecht University, the Netherlands * Gerald Heller, Hewlett Packard, Germany * Slinger Jansen, Utrecht University, the Netherlands * Anthony Finkelstein - University College London, UK * Kari Smolander, Univ.
