[Fwd: [isworld] Call for Chapter Proposals]

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] Call for Chapter Proposals Datum: Fri, 20 Nov 2009 08:12:14 -0500 Von: Mohamed Elbannan <mohamed.elbannan(a)cu.edu.eg> Antwort an: Mohamed Elbannan <mohamed.elbannan(a)cu.edu.eg> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> CALL FOR CHAPTER PROPOSALS E-Commerce Mechanisms and Regional Development: Economic Growth, Political Reform and Social Progress A book edited by Dr. Mohamed Elbannan Cairo University, Egypt Proposal Submission Dedline: January 31, 2009 Full Chapter Submission Deadline: March 31, 2009 To be published by IGI Global: http://www.igi-global.com/requests/details.asp?ID=638 Introduction For world regions striving to find a place in the modern, globalized world, e-commerce represents a revolutionary means of achieving economic and socio-political goals. E-commerce helps firms gain competitive advantage, expand customer base, and achieve cost reductions. Individual users attain a higher standard of living. E-governments improve the efficiency of citizen services, streamline internal administration, and further democratic choice. Additionally, research suggests that e-commerce helps further national economic goals, including the rationalization of financial and investment activities. Despite these numerous advantages, the adoption of e-commerce is still relatively slow in many regions, due to high cost of implementation and the inadequate economic and regulatory infrastructures impeding e-commerce development. The pace of adoption and the contributions to achievements of national goals, however, are directly related to perceived benefits versus risks and national cultural values. The book evaluates the relative effectiveness of e-commerce in furthering regional development goals, and proposes measures to advance the developmental impact of e-commerce. E-Commerce is an interdisciplinary area that involves marketing, management, strategy and entrepreneurship as they relate to the use of information and communications technology (ICT) applications in business. The book gives present and future practitioners of e-commerce a solid foundation on the effects of the different aspects of e-commerce in World regions. The focus of the book is on what a manager needs to know about the socio-political regional attributes, economic and regulatory infrastructure, business strategy formulation and implementation, and public policy issues in order to make effective business decisions. Within this framework, the chapters will provide a deep exploration of core concepts of online strategy supplemented by a wide variety of examples, case studies, and real-life explanations. Objective of the Book The book discusses the applications, issues and challenges related to e-commerce mechanisms in world regions in the context of its role in furthering regional development. The main theme of the book is the extent to which e-commerce applications have contributed to regional development. Accordingly, the book shall constitute a multi-disciplinary discussion of a broad range of e-commerce subtopics in sufficient detail, at multiple levels of analysis. That is, it is an integrated discussion of firm-level e-commerce mechanisms, individual customer/citizen interactions, and e-government applications. The book shall constitute a roadmap for proper implementation of e-commerce (�what should be�) as well as a documentation of current practices and issues. In an emerging market setting, the potential for regional economic growth, political reforms, and social progress owing to e-commerce applications is an important issue for academic study. However, prior research related to the emerging regions is fragmented and is mostly grounded in technical applications. Only few academic endeavors strive to build a theoretical framework to guide their propositions and predict future patterns of behavior. The absence of proper theorization with respect to explaining the current status of e-commerce development and predicting trends reflects a gap in the literature that this book aims to fill. Additionally, research papers and books discussing e-commerce in developing regions mostly provide rationalization from the perspectives of a single discipline, creating a need for an interdisciplinary approach. Further, the academic study of the impact on regional investment and financial activities is almost absent, and needs to be presented within the scope of the contributions of e-commerce to national goals achievement. Target Audience The book will fill an important void with respect to e-commerce and regional development. While the book will be written with the academic and professional readers in mind, the book should be of special significance to regulators who are interested in increasing citizen welfare and aiding national business entities in gaining competitive advantages. However, the target audience is upper-level undergraduate and graduate students, along with professional readers. The book aims at enriching the knowledge of readers with diverse issues, theoretical backgrounds, and professional/practical implications of e-commerce impact on regional development. The envisioned aim of the target audience is the exploration of new topics and establishing linkages between scientific findings and professional interests. For example, graduate students who are entrepreneurs, senior-level managers, and middle-level managers may be in search of means for maximizing firm value and reaching wider a customer base. Researchers seeking alternative explanations for the growth of certain e-commerce applications and the impeded advance in others will find diverse theoretical arguments and views from prior literature. Suggested book topics Recommended topics include, but are not limited to, the following: E-commerce revolution: 1. Value creation by the implementation of e-commerce applications 2. Study of regional economics, politics, and societies to show various effects of e-commerce implementation 3. Information infrastructure and technology The legal framework of e-commerce: 1. Policy implications of e-commerce 2. E-contracts 3. Online dispute resolution Culture and e-commerce: 1. Role of culture in e-commerce acceptance 2. The human capital development 3.

Thus understanding cooperative and human aspects of software development is crucial to comprehend how methods and tools are used, and thereby improving the creation and maintenance of software. The goal of this workshop is to provide a forum for discussing high quality research on human and cooperative aspects of software engineering. We aim at providing both a meeting place for the growing community and the possibility for researchers interested in joining the field to present their work in progress and get an overview over the field. Inspired by the hosting country’s concept of co-responsibility – ubuntu – we especially invite contributions that address community-based development like open source development and sustainability of ICT eco-systems. Topics of Interest ================== include, but are not limited to: • Social and cultural aspects of software engineering, • Psychological and cognitive aspects of software engineering, • Managerial and organizational aspects of software engineering, • Empirical studies of software development using both qualitative and quantitative methods, • Cooperation in agile development, • Community based development processes like Open Source development, • Software engineering as cooperative work, • Coordination and mutual awareness in large scale software development, • Cooperation between software developers and other professionals over the lifetime of a system, • Knowledge management in software engineering, • Distributed software development. • User participation in regard to ownership, training, level of involvement, interplay with developers, sustainability and deployment aspects Submissions =========== As last year, we will have 3 paper categories. • Full papers (up to 8 pages) • Short papers (up to 4 pages) • Notes (1 page) Papers that cannot be accommodated in the plenary sessions will be presented in discussion round tables. Important Dates =============== • 22 January - deadline for workshop paper submission • 14 February - notification of acceptance • 3 March - camera-ready deadline for workshop papers For further information see: http://www.itu.dk/people/ydi/CHASE2010.html Workshop goals ============== The main goal of this workshop is to present current research and to explore new research directions that will lead to improvements in the creation and maintenance of software, from the perspective of both processes and tools. A secondary goal is to build and strengthen the community among the researchers working on cooperative and human aspects of software engineering, including those who typically attend ICSE and those who hail from other disciplines. The goal is particularly to expand the community in Africa. Workshop organizers =================== • Yvonne Dittrich, IT University of Copenhagen, Denmark, ydi(a)itu.dk • Cleidson de Souza, UFPA, Brazil, cdesouza(a)ufpa.br • Mikko Korpela, University of Eastern Finland, Finland, mikko.korpela(a)uku.fi • Helen Sharp, Open University, UK, H.C.Sharp(a)open.ac.uk • Janice Singer, NRC, Canada, janice.singer(a)nrc-cnrc.gc.ca • Heike Winshiers-Theophilus, Polytechnic of Namibia, Namibia, heikew(a)polytechnic.edu.na Program Committee ================= Steve Adolph (invited), Brian de Alwis (invited), Gabriela Avram (invited), Fábio Queda Bueno, Marcelo Cataldo, Li-te Cheng, Retha de la Harpe, Orit Hazzan, Michael John (invited), Jens Kaasbøll (invited), Honest C Kimaro (invited), Hugo Lotriet (invited), Frank Maurer, Manfred Meyer, Rafael Prikladinick (invited), David Redmiles (invited), Kari Rönkkö (invited), Carolyn Seaman (invited), Susan Elliot Sim, Abimbola Soriyan, Gunnar Stevens, Jonathan Stillito, Margaret-Anne Storey (invited), Bjørnar Tessem, Gina Venolia (invited), Volker Wulf The AISWorld LISTSERV is a service of the Association for Information Systems (http://www.aisnet.org).

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] Call for Papers: International Conference on Information Technology in Bio- and Medical Informatics:ITBAM 2010 Datum: Wed, 18 Nov 2009 10:25:31 +0100 Von: Roland Wagner <rwagner(a)faw.at> Organisation: "ICCSA" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> /CALL for PAPERS and POSTERS/ / / *International Conference on* *Information Technology in Bio- and Medical Informatics* *ITBAM´10* (Conference, Workshops, Poster Sessions) in conjunction with the 21^st DEXA – DEXA’10 www.dexa.org August 30 - September 3, 2010 Bilbao, Spain *Scope of ITBAM Conference* The area of Information Technology is very important for Bio- as well as Medical Informatics. The DEXA conference is dedicated to providing an international forum for presenting applications in the area of database and expert systems, enabling the exchange of ideas and experiences defining requirements for future systems. Referring to current applications, Bio- and Medical Information Technology are areas confronting us with new challenges. Both areas are characterized by producing mass data and by using federated databases transparently integrating multiple autonomous database systems into a single federated database Further both areas are characterized by using different techniques common in the area of information systems. Generally speaking, for storing, manipulating and locating information for particular questions within Bio- and Medical Informatics research and application, many well known tools, methods and algorithms have to be adopted or totally re-organized (in the sense of a new development) for these very important scientific disciplines. All those modern technologies like micro-arrays, high throughput mass-spectrometry, high-resolution imaging, huge literature databases, complexity of biological and medical databases (e.g. the human genome project provide the sequence of the 3 billion DNA bases that constitute the human genome), a huge amount of information to study biological systems like cells, organs, or patients and many things more, are non trivial tasks representing new challenges to transform the vast amount of biomedical data into information supporting scientific progress and/or patient management. Scientists working in this area originate from different departments and disciplines (informatics, mathematics, bioinformatics. biology, medicine, etc.). Therefore the area of Information Technology of Bio- and Medical Informatics is very heterogeneous. ITBAM should provide an opportunity for fruitful discussion between researchers and practitioners of different scientific disciplines for developing a common language for solving problems within information technology concerning bio and medical informatics together *Scope of ITBAM Poster Session* ITBAM poster sessions should show first ideas of non ready publications and projects in progress within the area of information technology in bio- and medical-informatics. Poster sessions are mainly addressed to young researches like PhD students. All accepted posters will be shown during the whole DEXA / ITBAM event. ITBAM invites researchers from universities and labs of companies to submit papers for the ITBAM conference, proposals for workshops and proposals for poster sessions on all topics related to information technology in Bio- and Medical Informatics including, but not limited to those listed below: _Topics:_ * Administration of vast biological- and medical data * Applications of Database-, Information-, Expert- and Decision-support systems * Biological and medical image processing and –retrieval * Biological and medical signal processing and interpretation * Data and information modeling, integration, networks, privacy and security, quality, semantics and streams * Data structure and data management * Data and information systems architecture and performance * Data mining, data warehousing * Digital Libraries * Distributed, parallel,P2P, and grid-based databases * Electronic patient record * Expert- and decision- support systems * Information retrieval * Internet computing and web applications * Knowledge modeling and processing * Knowledge and acquisition and management * Metadata Management * Mobile Data and information * Multimedia databases * Multi-databases and Database federation * Query processing and optimisation * Statistical and scientific databases * User interfaces * Workflow management and database _ _ *Important Dates**:* *ITBAM conference papers:* * * * Submission of full papers: March 7, 2010 * Notification of acceptance: May 12, 2010 * Camera-ready copies due: June 10, 2010 *ITBAM poster session:* * Poster submission deadline: May 31, 2010 * Notification of acceptance: June 30, 2010 *PAPER SUBMISSION DETAILS:* Authors are invited to submit electronically original contributions or experience reports in English. * The submitted manuscript should closely reflect the final paper as it will appear in the proceedings. * Papers should not exceed 15 pages in LNCS format (http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html). * Any submission that exceeds length limits or deviates from formatting requirements may be rejected without review. For paper registration and electronic submission see http://confdriver.ifs.tuwien.ac.at/ starting January 2010. Submitted papers will be carefully evaluated based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of exposition. Duplicate submissions are not allowed. Authors are expected to agree to the following terms: "I understand that the paper being submitted must not overlap substantially with any other paper that I am a co-author of and that is currently submitted elsewhere. Furthermore, previously published papers with any overlap are cited prominently in this submission." Duplicate submissions will be rejected. Questions about this policy or how it applies to your work should be directed to the PC-chairs. *ACCEPTED PAPERS: * All accepted conference papers will be published in "Lecture Notes in Computer Science" (LNCS) by Springer Verlag. Accepted papers will be of two sizes: regular (15-page papers) and short (up to 8 pages). The former will tend to be descriptions of complete technical work, while the latter will tend to be descriptions of interesting, innovative ideas, which nevertheless require more work to mature.

More recently, Wikipedia has demonstrated how collaborative efforts can be a powerful feature to build a massive data storage. It is known that Wikipedia has become a key part of many corporations' knowledge management systems for decision making. Wikipedia is only one example brought about by Web 2.0 with the goal of creating communities of users. While Web 2.0 has many benefits, there are many more opportunities to be unleashed. Imagine if one could use information gathered by many people for critical decision making. There is great potential for creating and sharing more structured data through the web. To make it more regulated and more realistic, the data will be limited to the community scale rather than the global scale, for example, a community of academic research group. Each community can create a large database, in which each member can contribute information freely and can use the information with higher levels of confidence. The general motivation for the project is to enable various communities to develop such databases. In more specific, this publication has the following aims: * To provide a comprehensive list of issues and challenges for research in community-built database. * To disseminate the latest developments on community-built databases in various domains that can be used as a successful template to other community-built database development project. * To provide visionary ideas for future community-built database research and application. * To provide solid references on current research topics in community-built database, that can be useful for literature survey research. Invitation for Proposals -------------------------- We invite proposals from academic, researchers and industry practitioners in the area of collaborative information systems, databases, social web and other domains. The proposal should contain the tentative title, authors details, and brief description on the chapter. Tentative Sections ----------------------- The book will consist of these following sections. Each of the sections can include between 4 to 6 chapters. Section I : Community-Built Databases: Standard and Technologies Section II : Community-Built Databases: Storage and Modelling Section III : Social Aspect of Community-Built Databases Section IV : Community-Built Databases Applications Section V : The Future of Community-Built Databases Important Dates ----------------------- Proposal Deadline : 21 November 2009 Notification of Proposal Outcome : 05 December 2009 Final Chapter Deadline : 15 March 2010 Camera Ready Deadline : 15 August 2010 Editorial Board ----------------------- Hamideh Afsarmanesh (University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands) Barbara Carminati (University of Insubria, Italy) Gillian Dobbie (University of Auckland, New Zealand) Lyndon Kennedy (Yahoo, USA) Ee-Peng Lim (Singapore Management University, Singapore) Irena Mlynkova (Chales University, Czech Republic) Mirella Moura Moro (Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, Brazil) Wenny Rahayu (La Trobe University, Australia) Maytham Safar (Kuwait University, Kuwait) Lorna Uden (Staffordshire University, UK) Contact -------------------------------------------------------- For further info, please contact the editor: Eric Pardede Department of Computer Science and Computer Engineering La Trobe University Melbourne VIC 3083 AUSTRALIA Email: E.Pardede(a)latrobe.edu.au -----------------------------------------
