----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
BEST SELECTED PAPERS OF BEWEB 2010 WILL BE INVITED TO SUBMIT AN EXTENDED
VERSION
IN A SPECIAL ISSUE OF THE DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEMS JOURNAL
(LISTED IN JCR, IMPACT FACTOR: 1.873)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Introduction
------------
Over the last decade we have been witnessing an increasing use of
Business Intelligence (BI) solutions, which allow business people to
query, understand, and analyze their business data in order to make
better decisions. Traditionally, BI applications allowed business people
to acquire useful knowledge from the data of their organization by means
of a variety of technologies, such as data warehousing, data mining,
business performance management, OLAP, periodical business reports, and
the like.
Yet, in the very recent years, a new trend emerged: BI applications no
longer limit their analysis to the data inside one company.
Increasingly, they also source their data from the outside, i.e., from
the Web, and complement company-internal data with value-adding
information from the Web (e.g., retail prices of products sold by
competitors), in order to provide richer insights into the dynamics of
today’s business.
In parallel to the move of data from the Web into BI applications, we
are now assisting to the move of BI applications from company-internal
information systems to the Web: BI as a service (e.g., hosted BI
platforms for small- and medium-size companies) is the target of huge
investments and the focus of large research efforts by industry. The
idea is that of outsourcing the processing and analysis of large bodies
of data and consuming BI from the cloud.
We associate the above dynamics in the BI landscape with the following
research challenges:
1. Data from the Web is feeding BI applications:
In the last decade, the amount and complexity of data available on the
Web has been growing rapidly. As a consequence, designers of BI
applications making use of data from the Web have to deal with several
issues. Among the most interesting challenges we find, for instance, the
extraction and integration of heterogeneous data sources. But there are
many other interesting research challenges that arise in the moment the
Web is seen as data repository: how to develop Web warehousing
solutions, how to tackle with data quality issues, how to leverage
semantic Web technologies, how to employ Web mining, how to do BI with
unstructured data (e.g., text) or semi-structured data (e.g., XML), and
so on. Also, a recently emerged research challenge is Web Intelligence,
which explores the use of Artificial Intelligence in conjunction with or
relation to Web technologies. Other interesting topics arise when Web
usage data (e.g., logs, data streams, click streams, etc.) are analyzed
and used in BI applications, since these data can give support to the
development of Web applications, for example to achieve advanced levels
of adaptivity in websites.
2. BI applications are moving to the Web:
The move of BI applications from company-internal information systems to
applications that are accessible over the Web implies the need for
web-specific design competencies. In this context, we strongly believe
that (existing and future) Web engineering methodologies and
technologies represent a large body of knowledge and expertise that
could be very useful in the design of applications that allow decision
makers to access BI data and functionalities over the Web. Good Web
engineering is also the foundation of the design of real-time BI and
business performance management applications, as through the Web
applications provide access to data from anywhere, at anytime, and via
any media. But BI on the Web also implies a plethora of new research
challenges that are specific to the BI context, e.g., using Web mashups
and RIA for BI development, usability and accessibility for BI
applications, security issues in BI, and so on.
Target audience and topics of interest
--------------------------------------
BEWEB intends to be an international forum for exchanging ideas on how
to leverage the huge amount of data that is available on the Web in BI
applications, on how to apply Web engineering methods and techniques to
the design of BI applications, and on how to use BI knowledge in the
design of Web applications. Papers focused on new domains and new
experiences with the connection between BI and the Web are also highly
encouraged. The workshop will be a forum for researchers, designers, and
users who are related to the combination of these three main topics.
The scope of the workshop includes but is not limited to:
- Web warehousing
- Extraction, transformation, and load of Web data
- Web integration
- Web data quality
- Semantic Web technologies
- Web Mining
- Web Intelligence
- The role of Web 2.0/3.0 in BI
- BI with unstructured data (e.g., text) and semi-structured data (e.g.,
XML)
- BI for designing adaptive websites
- Web engineering techniques for BI applications (Web mashups, RIA, etc.)
- Real time BI
- Business performance management
- Usability and accessibility for BI applications
- Security issues in BI

Overview
Green, or environmentally friendly, often refers to "goods and services
considered to inflict minimal or no harm on the environment". At present,
Green has been penetrating into various disciplines, becoming pervasive.
Terms like Green Building, Green Energy, Green Manufacturing, Green
Technology, and Low Carbon Practice are often visible in daily lives. This
Green trend has been arousing interests from all kinds of people,
including politicians, business professionals, and academic researchers,
originating from environmental movement towards national strategy and
policy worldwide.
Green adoption in business or industry, however, is not smooth. Green is
often associated with terms like more capital expenditure and less
operation efficiency. Thus, while Green is an important matter,
sustainability for Green now has to move beyond environmental concerns to
a holistic view, over emerging business models, low carbon and clean
technologies, technology access and finance, and policy and regulations.

*IADIS INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE MOBILE LEARNING 2010*
Porto, Portugal, 19 to 21 March 2010
(http://www.mlearning-conf.org/)
** Conference background and goals*
Mobile Learning, a Retrospective Outlook
Since its inauguration in 2005, the IADIS Mobile Learning conference
series has provided a forum to present, discuss and promote
international mobile learning research.
Past conference themes have focused on pedagogical approaches most
suited for mobile learning such as collaborative, contextual, and
constructivist which support data collection, context & location
awareness and distributed activities. In 2007 the conference aimed to
harness an international perspective on the ‘big issues’ in mobile
learning by discussing topics such as the conflict between personal
informal learning and traditional classroom education, the evaluation of
mobile learning and appropriate methods for this setting, the design of
mobile learning activities and the integration of mobile devices in the
broader educational scenarios, among others. In 2008, our concern was to
explore various dimensions of the learners’ mobility for example,
physical, conceptual and social, to discern how these in conjunction
with mobile and fix technologies may support learning. Last year, the
conference debated the increasing phenomenon of user generated content,
in particular mobile media.
Five years on, the IADIS Mobile Learning 2010 International Conference
seeks to provide a forum for the presentation and discussion of mobile
learning research which provides a retrospective outlook of the field.
We seek contributions under the topics below which illustrate
developments in the field.

For more than a decade, researchers, and practitioners have been working
to evolve the World Wide Web into a Web of data—an information space in
which data can be reused and recombined in new contexts and for new
tasks with a far greater degree of automation than was previously
possible. In the past two years, we have witnessed a large number of
theoretical and practical contributions to the field, which is most
obvious in the growth of Linked Data. This special issue documents the
most significant results from the various branches of research in the
field, in the form of archival-quality articles.

PAPER ONE: Linked Data - The Story So Far
Christian Bizer, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany
Tom Heath, Talis Information Ltd, UK
Tim Berners-Lee, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA
The term “linked data” refers to a set of best practices for publishing
and connecting structured data on the Web. These best practices have
been adopted by an increasing number of data providers over the last
three years, leading to the creation of a global data space containing
billions of assertions— the Web of data. In this article, the authors
present the concept and technical principles of linked data and situate
these within the broader context of related technological developments.
They describe progress to date in publishing linked data on the Web,
review applications that have been developed to exploit the Web of data,
and map out a research agenda for the linked data community as it moves
forward.

PAPER TWO: Community-Driven Linked Data Authoring and Production of
Consolidated Linked Data
Aman Shakya, National Institute of Informatics, Japan
Hideaki Takeda, National Institute of Informatics and the University of
Tokyo, Japan
Vilas Wuwongse, Asian Institute of Technology, Thailand
User-generated content can help the growth of linked data; however, we
lack interfaces enabling ordinary people to author linked data. People
have multiple perspectives on the same concept and different contexts,
and not enough ontologies exist to model various data. The authors
propose an approach to enable people to share various data through an
easy-to-use social platform and all users to define their own concepts
and multiple conceptualizations. Further, concepts are grouped
semi-automatically by similarity. The authors also implement social
software, called StYLiD, to realize our approach. It serves as a
platform motivating people to bookmark and share different things. This
article also uses experimental observations to support the validity of
the approach.

PAPER THREE: Searching Linked Objects with Falcons: Approach,
Implementation and Evaluation
Gong Cheng, Southeast University, China
Yuzhong Qu, Southeast University, China
Along with the rapid growth of the data Web, searching linked objects
for information needs and for reusing have become an emergent for
ordinary Web users and developers, respectively. To meet the challenge,
the authors present falcons object search, a keyword-based search engine
for linked objects. To serve various keyword queries for each object,
the system constructs a comprehensive virtual document including not
only associated literals but also the textual descriptions of associated
links and linked objects. The resulting objects are ranked by
considering both their relevance to the query and their popularity. For
each resulting object, a query-relevant structured snippet is provided
to show the associated literals and linked objects matched with the
query. Web-scale class-inclusion reasoning is performed to discover
implicit typing information.

PAPER FOUR: A URI is Worth a Thousand Tags: From Tagging to Linked Data
with MOAT
Alexandre Passant, National University of Ireland, Ireland
Philippe Laublet, Université Paris-Sorbonne, France
John G. Breslin, National University of Ireland, Ireland
Stefan Decker, National University of Ireland, Ireland
Although tagging is a widely accepted practice on the social Web, it
raises various issues like tags ambiguity and heterogeneity, as well as
the lack of organization between tags. The authors believe that Semantic
Web technologies help solve many of these issues, especially considering
the use of formal resources from the Web of data in support of existing
tagging systems and practices. In this article, the authors present the
MOAT—meaning of a tag—ontology and framework and detail motivations and
benefits of the approach, both in an enterprise 2.0 ecosystem and on the
Web.

Introduction
The Web is evolving from a read-only environment to a strong collaborative
and intelligent platform where users have access to a vast range of tools
and resources. Simply said, the collaborative Web allows its visitors to
communicate with it and communicate intelligently. Enormous speed,
flexibility, knowledge and connectivity resulting from this evolution
offer immense potential to change the competitive landscape of business as
well as individuals. While embracing this change is becoming increasingly
important as well as feasible for businesses, there are many implications
of this shift in paradigm. It demands a different organizational
structure, culture, processes and policies for business and information
systems in order to reap the benefits while controlling the side-effects.
Objective of the Book
This book aims to explore the practices, strategies and patterns linked to
planning, control and execution of business management in light of the
evolutionary nature of the collaborative Web. It also aims to explore the

**************************************************************************************
IMPORTANT DATES
- Abstract Submission Deadline: November 5, 2009
- IE4SOC 2009 Workshop: November 23, 2009 (morning)
===============================
Service-oriented applications are being developed in a variety of
application domains. While research focuses on theoretical aspects in
themes such as Service Engineering, Service Compositions, Service
Management, SOA at runtime, Quality of Service, and Grid Services, solid
experiences about the utility of the proposed approaches in industry are
still missing. The aim of this workshop is, therefore, to identify the
most promising research directions that can have an impact on the service
industry for the purpose of aligning academic and industrial research
agendas. The evaluation of different proposed approaches and benchmarks
and complete case studies is needed to be able to assess which are the
most promising research directions that can have an impact on the
industrial development of this field.
GOALS
===============================
Starting from the research work of the EU Network of Excellence S-Cube on
analyzing case studies and the gaps in current solutions of current
research towards the establishment of adaptive and flexible service-based
applications, and with the goal of involving industries in the discussion
of experiences in using services in real cases, the workshop has the aim
of collecting case studies and perceived gaps in current platforms from
industries and from currently running industrial and research projects.
The aim of this workshop is to broaden the scope of this gap analysis by
collecting industrial scenarios and case studies and by analysing the
industrial needs for research in the next 5-10 years. A systematic basis
for analyzing the available material can be set and a contribution can be
made towards establishing benchmarks for assessing technologies and new
research approaches
The industries will be involved with the presentation of their experiences
and of their gap analysis with respect to platforms and solutions being
adopted and developed.
The goal of the workshop is to establish a discussion forum to analyze and
compare the characteristics of presented case studies and solutions.
SUBMISSIONS
===============================
Big industrial players and SMEs are encouraged to submit a 1000-word
position paper to pernici(a)elet.polimi.it by November 5th 2009 describing
relevant case studies and scenarios in the following open list of
application domains:
- pervasive systems
- automotive systems
- product design and distribution
- e-health
- e-government
- telecommunication
- ... other related application domains
We anticipate that submitters will be given about 15-20 minutes to present
their work to the assembled group, followed by 5-10 minutes for questions
from the audience. The exact timing and review process will depend on the
number of abstracts received.
All the position papers will be published in the workshop proceedings that
will be made available during the event.
