Workshop on Modular Ontologies (WoMO) Toronto, Canada, May 11, 2010 co-located with FOIS, KR, AAMAS, ICAPS, NMR, and DL --- 1st Call for Papers --- ========================================================= http://www.informatik.uni-bremen.de/~okutz/womo4 MODULARITY, as studied for many years in software engineering, allows mechanisms for easy and flexible reuse, generalization, structuring, maintenance, design patterns, and comprehension. Applied to ontology engineering, modularity is central not only to reduce the complexity of understanding ontologies, but also to facilitate ontology maintenance and ontology reasoning. Recent research on ontology modularity shows substantial progress in foundations of modularity, techniques of modularization and modular development, distributed reasoning and empirical evaluation. These results provide a foundation for further research and development. The workshop follows a series of successful events that have been an excellent venue for practitioners and researchers to discuss latest work and current problems, and is this time organised as a satellite workshop of FOIS 2010, as well as being co-located with several other relevant events, namely KR, AAMAS, ICAPS, NMR, and DL. TOPICS include, but are not limited to: - What is Modularity: Kinds of modules and their properties; modules vs. contexts; design patterns; granularity of representation; - Logical/Foundational Studies: Conservativity; modular ontology languages (e.g., DDL, E-Connections, P-DL); reconciling inconsistencies across modules; formal structuring of modules; heterogeneity; - Algorithmic Approaches: distributed reasoning; modularization and module extraction; (selective) sharing and re-using, linking and importing; hiding and privacy; evaluation of modularization approaches; complexity of reasoning; reasoners or implemented systems; - Applications: Semantic Web; Life Sciences; Bio-Ontologies; Natural Language Processing; ontologies of space and time; Ambient Intelligence; collaborative ontology development; etc. IMPORTANT DATES Paper Submission: January 29, 2010 Notification: March 1, 2010 Camera ready: March 11, 2010 Workshop day: May 11, 2010 SUBMISSION GUIDELINES: The workshop welcomes submission of high quality original and previously unpublished papers.

Detailed information on SBP workshops (SBP08 and SBP09) including proceedings, presentations and invited speakers can be found at http://sbp.asu.edu Social computing harnesses the power of computational methods to study social behavior and social context. Behavioral modeling refers to representing behavior in the abstract and is a convenient and powerful way to conduct virtual experiments and scenario planning. Both social computing and behavioral modeling are techniques designed to achieve a better understanding of complex behaviors, patterns, and associated outcomes of interest. Moreover, these approaches are inherently interdisciplinary; subsystems and system components exist at multiple levels of analysis (i.e., "cells to societies") and cross disparate disciplines. Conference Offerings and Opportunities SBP10 is a highly interdisciplinary conference offering a rare and exciting opportunity for behavioral and social science researchers to come together with computational and computer scientists and other related disciplines in order to: * Gain fundamental working knowledge in a discipline outside one’s own through half-day pre-conference tutorials (More information will be posted to the conference website as it becomes available). * Showcase SBP research at paper and poster sessions * Meet people in complementary disciplines through deliberate exercises aimed at exploring potential research partnerships during the post-conference half day workshop Because this conference is being held in the Washington, D.C. area there will be a unique opportunity to meet with program staff across a variety of federal agencies including: Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR), Office of Naval Research (ONR), National Institutes of Health (NIH), National Science Foundation (NSF), and Department of Homeland Security (DHS). This conference is emphatically interdisciplinary and provides a platform for researchers, practitioners, program staff from federal agencies and graduate students in disciplines such as sociology, behavioral science, psychology, cultural study, health sciences, economics, computer science, engineering, information systems, and operations research to convene in one place. Attendees will walk away with a deeper understanding of social and behavioral computing and evaluation as they inform critical decision and policy making. The program will include invited speakers from government, industry, and academia, as well as research presentations and discussions. Call for Papers and Posters Papers or posters are solicited on research issues, theories, and applications. Topics of interests include, but are not limited to, * Military and security applications of SBP o Group formation and evolution in the political context o Technology and flash crowds o Networks and political influence o Information diffusion o Group representation and profiling * Health applications of SBP o Social network analysis to understand health behavior o Modeling of health policy and decision making o Modeling of behavioral aspects of infectious disease spread o Intervention design and modeling for behavioral health * Basic research on sociocultural and behavioral processes using SBP o Group interaction and collaboration o Group formation and evolution o Group representation and profiling o Cultural patterns and representation o Social conventions and social contexts o Influence process and recognition o Public opinion representation o Viral marketing and information diffusion o Psycho-cultural situation awareness * Methodological issues in SBP o Verification and validation o Sensitivity analysis o Matching technique or method to research questions o Metrics and evaluation o Methodological innovation o Model federation and integration o Limitations of and barriers to SBP o Research gaps and opportunities Important Dates Paper/full text poster Due: Friday, November 6, 2009 Notification of acceptance: November 27, 2009 Camera-Ready: December 11, 2009 Format and Submission Papers (maximum 8 pages) should be submitted in PDF format.

Szewczak <szewczak(a)canisius.edu> Antwort an: Edward J. Szewczak <szewczak(a)canisius.edu> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> The contents of the latest issue of: Information Resources Management Journal (IRMJ) Official Publication of the Information Resources Management Association Volume 22, Issue 4, October-December 2009 Published: Quarterly in Print and Electronically ISSN: 1040-1628; EISSN: 1533-7979 Published by IGI Publishing, Hershey-New York, USA www.igi-global.com/irmj PAPER ONE A Technology Commitment Model of Post-Adoption Behavior Y. Ken Wang, University of Pittsburgh at Bradford, USA Pratim Datta, Kent State University, USA Every year, individuals and organizations end up adopting (licensing) many competing software products. Yet, over time, much of the adopted software remains unused because users forgo the use of one software product for another adopted alternative. Although much research in the IS field has examined initial IS adoption, less is known about such post-adoption behavior. This article argues that a sense of �technology commitment� to one technology over other adopted alternatives is key to sustained post-adoption use intentions. By forwarding a technology commitment model, this article investigates the antecedents of technology commitment and its consequent effects on IS continuance. In the model, the article also examines how technological inertia moderates IS continuance intentions.

Johnston, University of Alabama Birmingham, USA Merrill Warkentin, Mississippi State University, USA Mark B. Schmidt, St. Cloud State University, USA Technology adoption by individuals has traditionally been regarded by information systems researchers as a choice between adoption and non-adoption of a single technology. With the current diversity of technology alternatives, the adoption decision may be more accurately specified as a choice between competing alternative technologies. The research question may no longer be simply whether technology is adopted, but rather which technology is adopted. The authors illustrate this with a simplified model of choice between two competing technologies, where the second technology is an enhanced version of the first. The authors� theoretical model is based on expectancy theory (ET).

The authors propose to expand perspective towards users� welfare that becomes vulnerable when information systems (IS) are implemented by mandate and suggest user satisfaction with IS as the appropriate measure of success. The authors are especially interested in the mandatory introduction and implementation of IS in organizations where users of such information systems are unsophisticated with limited educational background or IS experience and whose job is relatively simple and labor-intensive.

Nevertheless, while e-procurement has generated considerable hype, the phenomenon is generally under-researched despite the fundamental impact that e-Procurement has on the nature of inter-organizational relationships. This paper explores the effects that business-to-business relationships have on e-procurement systems, using a field study of six companies. The study classifies business-to-business (B2B) relationships as being adversarial and collaborative, and the authors examine the effects of both relationships on the electronically supported transaction phases of the procurement lifecycle.

The authors identify the factors that influence members of the general public to conduct Internet searches for health information and explore the influence such Internet use has on three types of personal empowerment. In the summer of 2007 the authors conducted a household sample survey of a population of Canadian adults. A total of 261 self-administered questionnaires are returned to the researchers. This study is one of the first to relate Internet use to various forms of personal empowerment.

Serrano, University of Georgia, USA Elena Karahanna, University of Georgia, USA Though healthcare costs continue to soar, the healthcare industry lags other service industries in applying information technology to improve customer (i.e. patient) service, improve access to healthcare services, and reduce costs. One particular area of concern is overuse and overcrowding of emergency departments for nonurgent care. Telemedicine is one potentially important application of information technology in this realm. This study examines the antecedents of patient acceptance of walk-in telemedicine services for minor ailments. Drawing upon theoretical models in the healthcare and technology acceptance literatures and based on salient beliefs elicited during interviews with twenty-nine potential adopters, the authors develop a conceptual model of antecedents of patient acceptance of walk-in telemedicine services for minor conditions. The authors discuss the study�s implications for research and practice, as well as offer suggestions for future empirical studies.

This study explores information technology (IT) in a hospital environment and investigates its relationship to mortality, patient safety, and financial performance across small, medium, and large hospitals. Breaking down IT into functional, technical, and integration components permits the assessment of different types of technologies� impact on financial and operational outcomes.

Woodside, Cleveland State University, USA Iftikhar U. Sikder, Cleveland State University, USA Spatial epidemiological approach to healthcare studies provides significant insight in evaluating health intervention and decision making. This article illustrates a space-time cluster analysis using Kulldorff�s Scan Statistics (1999), local indicators of spatial autocorrelation, and local G-statistics involving routine clinical service data as part of a limited data set collected by a Northeast Ohio healthcare organization (Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of Ohio) over a period 1994�2006. The objective is to find excess space and space - time variations of lung cancer and to identify potential monitoring and healthcare management capabilities.

While, on the other side the technology offers powerful surveillance mechanisms to monitor these activities and thus constitutes a powerful tool for law enforcement. This article explores how offenders manage the risk of surveillance when downloading, distributing, and exchanging child abusive material. Critical research with a focus on panopticon is used as a theoretical framework, and the data is drawn from interviews with offenders, convicted of child pornography. The ultimate motivation for researching this topic is to contribute to the development of effective child protection strategies.

As mobile phones become ever smarter (or complex) in functions, understanding the adoption behaviors of complex mobile services such as MMS becomes utterly important to both practitioners and academic. This paper introduces a multi-facet model for MMS adoption by integrating the well-known behavioral models such as TAM and TPB with other factors including intrinsic motivation, personal innovativeness and critical mass.

It is no surprise that many non-motivated adult learners abandon prematurely their e-learning experiences. This is attributed in a great extent to the poor design and usability of e-learning applications. This paper proposes a usability framework that addresses the user as a learner and extends the current e-learning usability practice by focusing on the affective dimension of learning, a frequently neglected issue in e-learning developments. Usability and instructional design constructs as well as Kellers ARCS Model are employed within the framework proposed in this work upon, which new usability evaluation methods are based. This framework integrates Web usability and instructional design parameters, and the author proposes motivation to learn as a new type of usability dimension in designing and evaluating e-learning applications.

The authors match the systems in terms of key factors, such as design for usability and take into account individual differences between participants that influenced perception, such as locus of control, experience, and personality. Participants ratings are dependent on their personality, locus of control, and level of physical activity. This study also demonstrates the benefits of including automated dialogue in a system designed to help people find solutions for their exercise barriers.

Therefore there is a need to improve interactions between drivers and allow clearer collective decision making between them. Personal characteristics and the driving situations play strong roles in drivers aggression. The authors approach is centered around the driving situation as opposed to focusing on personality characteristics. This article examines aggression and manipulates contextual variables such as drivers eye contact exchanges. The authors present a new unobtrusive in-vehicle system that aims at communicating drivers intentions, elicit social responses and increasing mutual awareness. In addition, the authors use a driving simulator to design a case control experiment in which eye gaze movements are conveyed with an avatar. Participants are asked to drive through different types of intersections. An avatar representing the head of the other driver is displayed, and the authors analyze driver behavior.
