[Fwd: [computational.science] CFP: ACM Transactions on Autonomous and Adaptive Systems (TAAS) Special Issue on Adaptive Security Systems]
by Gustaf Neumann 25 Sep '08

25 Sep '08

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] CFP: ACM Transactions on Autonomous and Adaptive Systems (TAAS) Special Issue on Adaptive Security Systems Datum: Thu, 25 Sep 2008 09:13:17 +1000 Von: Yang Xiang <y.xiang(a)cqu.edu.au> Organisation: "OptimaNumerics" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.optimanumerics.com> ACM Transactions on Autonomous and Adaptive Systems (TAAS) Special Issue on Adaptive Security Systems http://www.acm.org/pubs/taas/ http://nss.cqu.edu.au/FCWViewer/getFile.do?id=23880 Email: y.xiang(a)cqu.edu.au Submission due: 15 Mar 2009 >>Call for Papers ---------------------------------------------- Security and privacy have been the major concern when people design computer networks and systems. In recent years, there has been significant increase in network and system attacks, such as frauds, distributed denial of service, viruses, worms, spyware, and malware, etc, causing huge economical and social damage. While the attack tools have become more easy-to-use, sophisticated, and powerful, interest has greatly increased in the field of building more effective, intelligent, robust, autonomous and adaptive security systems. It is envisioned that the large-scale adaptive security system will be essential to provide comprehensive protection to networks and systems in the future. The aim of such an adaptive security system is to provide authentication, access control, availability, integrity, privacy, confidentiality, dependability and sustainability to networks and systems, with autonomous and adaptive capabilities. However, building such a system faces significant challenges. We expect the adaptive security system to be * self-organizing and can deal with different attacks without central control, and through contextual interactions with the peer nodes; * adaptive and broad-spectrum to both known and unknown attacks with high true positive detection rate and low false positive detection rate; * able to counteract the distributed intelligent attack systems which have the learning capability; and * collaborative and optimized to intelligently safeguard the networks and systems with low management and maintenance cost. These challenges need to be addressed under joint efforts from different areas such as network security, computer communications, AI, autonomic computing, bio-inspired techniques for security, adaptive systems, and others. >>Topics ---------------------------------------------- This special issue on Adaptive Security Systems in ACM TAAS focuses on autonomous and adaptive security system theories, technologies, and real-life applications. Original papers are solicited for this special issue. Suggested topics include, but are not limited to: Adaptive Security System Theories * Adaptive security architectures, algorithms, and protocols * Autonomic learning mechanisms in security systems * Intelligent attack systems and mechanisms * Interactions between autonomic nodes of security systems * Modeling of adaptive attack and defense mechanisms * Theories in adaptive security systems Adaptive Security System Technologies * Adaptive security systems design * Adaptive security systems implementation * Adaptive intrusion detection/prevention systems * Self-organizing identity management and authentication * Adaptive defense against large-scale attacks * Simulation and tools for adaptive security systems Adaptive Security System Applications * Benchmark, analysis and evaluation of adaptive security systems * Distributed autonomous access control and trust management * Autonomous denial-of-service attacks and countermeasures * Autonomous wireless security systems * Autonomous secure mobile agents and middleware * Adaptive defense against viruses, worms, and other malicious codes >>Important Dates ---------------------------------------------- Submission deadline: 15 Mar 2009 Notification date: 15 May 2009 Camera-ready due: 15 Jul 2009 Expected publication: Dec 2009 >>Submission Guideline ---------------------------------------------- Authors are invited to submit manuscripts reporting important developments (or advances) in the topics related to the special issue. The submitted papers must be written in English and describe original research not published nor currently under review by other journals or conferences. Parallel submissions will not be accepted. If an earlier version of the manuscript was published/accepted in conferences, authors should state so in the cover letter. The manuscript must be a substantial extension to the previously published/accepted work and a summary of changes and a copy of the previous conference paper must be submitted together with the submission to the special issue. The manuscripts should be formatted according to the ACM TAAS guidelines available from the journal homepage (http://www.acm.org/pubs/taas) and submitted to the guest editors through email y.xiang(a)cqu.edu.au. Guest editors will pre-screen submitted manuscripts for their suitability in the issue. Submissions passing the pre-screen process will go through a rigorous peer-review process according to the standards of TAAS. Submitting a paper implies the willingness of reviewing one paper submitted to the special issue. >>Guest Editors ---------------------------------------------- Dr. Yang Xiang School of Management and Information Systems Central Queensland University Australia Email: y.xiang(a)cqu.edu.au Phone: +61-7-4923-2748 Fax: +61-7-4930-9729 Prof. Wanlei Zhou School of Engineering and Information Technology Deakin University Australia Email: wanlei(a)deakin.edu.au Phone: +61-3-9251-7603 Fax: +61-3-9251-7604 --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: computational.science-unsubscribe(a)lists.optimanumerics.com For additional commands, e-mail: computational.science-help(a)lists.optimanumerics.com Computational Science mailing list hosting is provided by OptimaNumerics (http://www.OptimaNumerics.com) ---------------------------------------------------------------------

To remedy this situation, Information Reuse and Integration (IRI) seeks to maximize the reuse of information by creating simple, rich, and reusable knowledge representations and consequently explores strategies for integrating this knowledge into legacy systems. IRI plays a pivotal role in the capture, representation, maintenance, integration, validation, and extrapolation of information; and applies both information and knowledge for enhancing decision-making in various application domains. This conference explores three major tracks: information reuse, information integration, and reusable systems. Information reuse considers optimizing representation methodologies; information integration studies strategies for creatively applying models in novel domains; and reusable systems focus on ontological opportunities for deploying models and corresponding processes. The IEEE IRI conference serves as a forum for researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and government to present, discuss, and exchange ideas that address real-world problems with real-world solutions. The conference feature contributed and invited papers. Theoretical and applied papers are both included. The conference program will include special sessions, open forum workshops, and keynote speeches. A forum will be conducted with the intent of bridging IRI and Systems of Systems and why the future of intelligent computing - including computing applications - will lie at the juxtaposition of these two topical areas. The conference includes, but is not limited to, the areas listed below: - Large Scale Data and System Integration - Component-Based Design and Reuse - Unifying Data Models (UML, XML, etc.) and Ontologies - Database Integration - Structured/Semi-structured Data - Middleware & Web Services - Reuse in Software Engineering - Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery - Sensory and Information Fusion - Reuse in Modeling & Simulation - Automation, Integration and Reuse across Various Applications - Information Security & Privacy - Survivable Systems & Infrastructures - AI & Decision Support Systems - Heuristic Optimization and Search - Knowledge Acquisition and Management - Fuzzy and Neural Systems - Soft Computing - Evolutionary Computing - Case-Based Reasoning - Natural Language Understanding - Knowledge Management and E-Government - Command & Control Systems (C4ISR) - Human-Machine Information Systems - Space and Robotic Systems - Biomedical & Healthcare Systems - Homeland Security & Critical Infrastructure Protection - Manufacturing Systems & Business Process Engineering - Multimedia Systems - Service-Oriented Architecture - Autonomous Agents in Web-based Systems - Information Integration in Grid Computing Environments - Information Integration in Mobile Computing Environments - Information Integration in Ubiquitous Computing Environments - Systems of Systems - Semantic Web and Emerging Applications - Information Reuse, Integration and Sharing in Collaborative Environments Instructions for Authors: ------------------------- Papers reporting original and unpublished research results pertaining to the above and related topics are solicited.

Meanwhile, emerging Web 3.0 applications, driven by semantic web technologies such as RDF, OWL and SPARQL, offer powerful data organization, combination, and query capabilities. The social web and the semantic web complement each other in the way they approach content generation and organization. Social web applications are fairly unsophisticated at preserving the semantics in user-submitted content, typically limiting themselves user tagging and basic metadata. Because of this, they have only limited ways for consumers to find, customize, filter and reuse data. Semantic web applications, on the other hand, feature sophisticated logic-backed data handling technologies, but lack the kind of scalable authoring and incentive systems found in successful social web applications. As a result, semantic web applications are typically of limited scope and impact. We envision a new generation of applications that combine the strengths of these two approaches: the data flexibility and portability of that is characteristic of the semantic web, and the scalability and authorship advantages of the social web. In this symposium, we are interested in bringing together the semantic web community and the social web community to promote the collaborative development and deployment of semantics in the World Wide Web context. We welcome constructive papers on, for example: (i) how semantic technologies, especially knowledge representation and collective intelligence, can benefit social web content organization and retrieval; (ii) how social web technologies can facilitate massive semantic content production; and (iii) how to address the requirements, e.g., reasoning scalability and semantic convergence issues, which emerge from the combination. We encourage submissions of full papers, extended abstracts, demonstrations and posters describing research and applications that deal with (but not limited to) the following topics on social semantic web: * Collaborative and collective semantic data generation and publishing * Semantic tagging and annotation for social web * Data integration * Data portability * Data analysis and data mining * Privacy, policy and access control * Provenance, reputation and trust * Scalable search, query and reasoning * Semantically-enabled social applications: semantic wikis, semantic desktops, semantic portals, semantic blogs, semantic calendars, semantic email, semantic news, etc. ==Submission== Interested participants should submit papers in PDF format to http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ssw08.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] [WM 2009] First CfP for the first workshop on Case Studies and Success Measurement of KM (CSKM2009) Datum: Mon, 22 Sep 2008 16:08:36 +0200 Von: Stefan.Smolnik(a)ebs.edu An: wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de (Apologies for crosspostings of this announcement.) *5th Conference Professional Knowledge Management: Experiences and Visions * *WM2009: March 25-27, 2009, Alte Spital/Landhaus, Solothurn, Switzerland* *http://www.wm-konferenz2009.org* <http://www.wm-konferenz2009.org/> *--- * *First Conference Workshop on Case Studies and Success Measurement of KM (CSKM2009)* *http://www.ebs.edu/index.php?id=cskm2009* *CALL FOR PAPERS* *BACKGROUND AND MOTIVATION OF THE WORKSHOP:* Knowledge management (KM) has progressed from an emergent concept to an increasingly common function in business organizations over the past 20 years. Intense competition, fickle consumers, shorter product life cycles, as well as the rapid pace of globalization and of the ongoing liberalization of national and international markets are some of the driving forces that have led to increased inspection of the usage, application, and leveraging of knowledge in organizations. Accordingly, research into KM has been affected by investigations such as organizational implementation aspects and system developments during a number of years. A high maturity level of KM research has been therefore achieved. However, organizational KM initiatives are more and more faced with budget cuts and justification demands due to intense competition in today's business environments. Project managers of KM initiatives like Chief Knowledge Officers (CKOs) need to justify their budgets and thus are in need of qualitative and quantitative evidence of the KM initiatives' success. Problems experienced in KM initiatives that potentially risk this success are assumed to be the result of one or more of the following three factors: Firstly, a focus on the technological dimension of KM (i.e. KM systems (KMS)) is prevalent, together with a lack of attention to the social dimension (e.g., organizational culture). Secondly, the absence of a clearly defined purpose and value for the business is obstructive. In this context, a key requirement for realizing the business value of KM is the institutionalization of KM practices and systems into people's natural work flow. Thirdly, KM frameworks', concepts' and systems' adoption to the specific requirements of corporate contexts is lacking. Given its focus on people and their interactions, KM is intrinsically highly context specific. Each organizational setting poses its own challenges for successful KM. To address all these issues, the workshop aims to provide a forum to discuss research and insights into strategies, methodologies, and cases that relate to successfully implement KM and KMS, and measure this success. *TOPICS:* Topics of papers submitted can be, but are not limited to: - Case studies about successes and failures of KM initiatives and KMS - Frameworks and models for assessing KM/KMS - Evaluating success factors and derivation of key performance indicators for KM/KMS - Measuring KM/KMS success and performance (concepts, methods, case studies, etc.) - Impact of KM strategy, organization, systems, culture, and other issues on KM success - Benchmarking of KM initiatives - Establishing knowledge-intensive corporate cultures as a prerequisite for successful KM/KMS - Modeling and measuring the impact of social software on KM performance *ADDRESSED AUDIENCE:* The target group includes researchers and practitioners in the field of knowledge management. Besides paper presentations, this workshop offers organized and open spaces for targeted discussions.
