Invited Talks by:
- Jörg Beringer, SAP, Palo Alto, USA
- Margaret Burnett, Oregon State University, USA
- Gerhard Fischer, University of Colorado, Boulder, USA
- Yasmin Kafai, University of California, Los Angeles, USA
Deadline for Submission: September 8, 2008
Date of Symposium: March, 2 - 4 2009
Location of Symposium : Siegen, Germany
Proceedings will be published with Springer Lecture Notes on Computer
Science (LNCS)
Theme:
Organizations and work practices vary widely and evolve rapidly. The
technological infrastructure has to follow, allow or even support these
changes. Traditional Software Engineering approaches reach their limits
whenever the full spectrum of user requirements can’t be anticipated or
the frequency of changes makes software reengineering cycles too clumsy
to address all needs of a specific field of application. Moreover, the
increasing importance of ‘infrastructural’ aspects, particularly the
mutual dependencies between technologies, usages, and domain
competencies, calls for a differentiation of roles beyond the classical
user-designer dichotomy.
End User Development (EUD) addresses these problems by offering
lightweight, use-time support which allows users to configure, adapt and
evolve their software by themselves. EUD is understood as a set of
methods, techniques, and tools that allow users of software systems, who
are acting as non-professional software developers, at some point to
create, modify or extend a software artefact (cf. Lieberman, Paternó,
and Wulf 2006). While programming activities by non-professional actors
are an essential focus, EUD also investigates into related activities
within the process of developing a software infrastructure, e.g. the
collective understanding and sense-making of use problems and solution
alternatives, the interactions among end users around the
introduction/diffusion of new configurations, or delegation patterns
that may also partly involve professional designers.
EUD concepts have found widespread use in commercial software with some
success: recording macros in word processors, setting up spreadsheets
for calculations, defining e-mail-filters, desktop widget configuration
or configuring/composing mesh-ups. Although these applications only
realize a fraction of EUD's potential and still suffer from many flaws,
they illustrate why empowering end-users to develop the systems they are
using is an important contribution to letting them become active
citizens of the Information Society.
EUD integrates different threads of discussion from Human Computer
Interaction (HCI), Software Engineering (SE), Computer Supported
Cooperative Work (CSCW), and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Concepts such
as tailorability, configurability, end-user programming, visual
programming, natural programming, and programming by example already
form a fruitful base, but they need to be better integrated, and the
synergy between them more fully exploited.//
Also driven by developments in the context of Web 2.0, the number of
end-user developers compared to the number of software professionals
will grow exponentially. This underlines the importance of systematic
research in EUD. The potential to provide EUD-based adaptation over the
Internet may create a shift from the conventional few-to-many
distribution model of software to a many-to-many distribution model.
EUD could also lead to a considerable competitive advantage in adapting
to dynamically changing (economic) environments by empowering end-users.
The increasing amount of software embedded within consumer and
professional products also points to a need to promote EUD to enable
effective use of these products. This momentum may also be picked up to
improve software (re-)design based in user-driven innovation tools and
strategies.
On the political level EUD is important for full participation of
citizens in the emerging Information Society. While techniques of Web
2.0 already contribute to a democratization of the creation of content,
the modification of the software infrastructure are difficult for
non-professional programmers. This results for many sectors of society
in a division of labor between those who produce and those who consume.
EUD has the potential to counterbalance these effect.
The Second International Symposium on End User Development will focus an
emergent discussion which so far has been conducted on many different
fori.Suggested topics include but are not limited to:
- Empirical studies of EUD practises
- User Interfaces for EUD
- Metaphors for software modularization
- Requirements specification for EUD
- Architectures for EUD
- EUD as part of software infrastructuring
- Support for collaboration among non-professional programmers
- EUD for specific types of devices
- EUD in specific fields of application
- EUD for user groups with specific needs
- Education concepts to foster EUD
- Micro-economical effects of EUD
- Marco-economical impact of EUD
- Political implications of EUD

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. In addition, the workshop will have a special session to discuss issues
related to women in information security.
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

SDM'09: THE NINTH SIAM INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON DATA MINING
John Ascuaga's Nugget, Sparks (Reno-Sparks-Tahoe area), Nevada, USA
April 30 - May 2, 2009
URL: http://www.siam.org/meetings/sdm09
=============================================================

===============================================================
Data mining is an important tool in science, engineering, industrial
processes, healthcare, business, and medicine. The datasets in these
fields are large, complex, and often noisy. Extracting knowledge requires
the use of sophisticated, high-performance and principled analysis
techniques and algorithms, based on sound theoretical and statistical
foundations. These techniques in turn require powerful visualization
technologies; implementations that must be carefully tuned for
performance; software systems that are usable by scientists, engineers,
and physicians as well as researchers; and infrastructures that support
them.
This conference provides a venue for researchers who are addressing these
problems to present their work in a peer-reviewed forum. It also provides
an ideal setting for graduate students and others new to the field to
learn about cutting-edge research by hearing outstanding invited speakers
and attending tutorials (included with conference registration). A set of
focused workshops are also held on the last day of the conference. The
proceedings of the conference are published in archival form, and are also
made available on the SIAM web site.
