März 2010, Klagenfurt, Österreich New Submission deadline: 10. Januar 2010 www.metainformationen.de/30JKW www.modellierung2010.org ======================================================================== Der Workshop hat die Berücksichtigung logischer und inhaltlicher Gesichtspunkte bei der Modellierung von Anwendungssystemen (Mensch, Organisation & Technik) zum Ziel. Auf der Basis der konstruktiven Wissenschaftstheorie wurde vor ca. 30 Jahren eine Methodologie für die Entwicklung von Anwendungssystemen vorgeschlagen sowie erste Lösungen publiziert. Heute existieren zahlreiche Methodologien -- auch anderer wissenschaftstheorietischer Fundierung -, mittels derer positive Resultate bei der ganzheitlichen Entwicklung von Anwendungssystemen erzielt werden können. "Aus der Praxis für die Praxis" bildet die Orientierung für die Einreichung von Beiträgen zu diesem Workshop. Es werden Arbeiten zum Generalthema "Modellierung" erbeten, in denen in besonderer Weise die Logik-Basierung, die Berücksichtigung von ökonomischen Werten und/oder ethischen Normen sowie eine spezielle methodologische Ausrichtung bei der Lösung komplexer Aufgabenstellungen zu erkennen sind. Ein Ziel des Workshops ist es, aus den eingereichten Beiträgen ein Handbuch "Enterprise Engineering & Management" aus der Taufe zu heben, an dem in den darauf folgenden Monaten von den beteiligten Autoren und den Workshop-Organisatoren koordiniert weiter gearbeitet werden soll. Die Grobgliederung (siehe Themenübersicht), die den Einreichern als Orientierung für den eigenen Beitrag dienen kann, liegt auch einem Tutorial ("Enterprise Modeling meets Application Development") zugrunde, das auf der Konferenz angeboten wird. Themen: Es werden Arbeiten zum Generalthema "Modellierung" erbeten; insbesondere zu den Aspekten - Requirements Management, - Business Process Modeling, - Service Engineering, - Data Management, - Business Process Preparation und - Enterprise Management. Beiträge zu weiteren Themen, die sich hier einordnen lassen oder darüber hinaus gehen sowie Methodologie-, Strategie- und Technologie-Beiträge sind natürlich auch willkommen.

The dg.o meetings are an established forum for the presentation, discussion and demonstration of interdisciplinary digital government research, technology innovation, and applications. Each year the conference combines: · Presentations of effective partnerships among government professionals, university researchers, relevant businesses, and NGOs, as well as grassroots citizen groups, to advance the practice of digital government. · Research on digital government as an interdisciplinary domain that lies at the intersections of computing research, social and behavioral science research, and the problems and missions of government. The dg.o 2010 conference theme “Public Administration Online: Opportunities and Challenges” focuses on open government, information sharing, interoperability, distributed collaboration, and massive intelligence in government areas, as well as Web 2.0, and cloud computing. The theme encompasses issues related to the capabilities to be provided by such environments; user interactions and experiences with such online Digital Government resources and environments; and, the technical infrastructure needed to support such environments. Topics in Web 2.0 technologies, online collaboration environments, user adoption and adaptation, and use of cloud computing to support such environments are all relevant and pose interesting scientific questions. At the same time, governments around the world are being confronted with incredible challenges in privacy and policy issues, even as there are trends and pressures to make these data accessible via more platforms, e.g. mobile devices. An additional important focus area of the conference is on policy issues related to the above topics. The goal of this year’s conference program is to encourage active discussions between practitioners and academics in order to provide insights into Digital Government issues leading to future innovations. In addition, we also welcome submissions from the broader domain of digital government research. More specifically, we invite research papers, management, policy and case study papers, student research papers, on-going research posters, and live demonstrations that address the impact of public administration online, use of cloud computing, and effectiveness of social networks as transformative technologies for G2G, G2C, C2C, and G2B interactions. We particularly encourage submissions on interdisciplinary and crosscutting topics addressing social computing in the context of broad government challenges. We also encourage the submission of panels, ‘birds-of-a-feather’ discussions, and pre-conference tutorials and workshops. While the overall conference theme this year is “Public Administration Online”, topics can also include, but are not limited, to the following, · Digital Government Application Domains: such as courts, crisis management, education, emergency response, government statistics, grants administration, intelligence, international initiatives and cooperation, health and human services, law enforcement and criminal justice, legislative systems, natural resources management, open government (o-government), regulation and rulemaking, security, tax administration, transportation systems, and urban planning. · IT-enabled Government Management and Operations: such as cross-boundary information sharing and integration, decision-making processes, digital government organization and management strategies, information assurance, information technology adoption and diffusion, IT and service architectures, long-term preservation and archiving of government information, program planning, service integration, as well as technology transition and transfer. · Information Values and Policies: such as accessibility, digital democracy and governance, digital divide, openness, privacy, public participation in democratic processes, security, transparency, trust, and universal access to information and services. · Information Technology and Tools to Support Government: such as cloud computing for digital government domains; collaboration tools; digital libraries and knowledge management; geographic information systems; human-computer interaction; intelligent agents; information integration; interoperable data, networks and architectures; large scale data and information acquisition and management; mobile government; multiple modalities and multimedia; national and international infrastructures for information and communication; service-oriented architectures; semantic web; and social networking, mashups, and software engineering for large-scale government projects.

Please do not use page numbers. Paper titles should be on the first page of text, rather than on a separate cover page. Research and Policy track papers will be reviewed through a double blind review process. Therefore, author names and contact information must be omitted from all submissions. Authors must identify the topic(s) being addressed by the paper to assist the program committee in the review process. All other submissions should follow the same ACM proceedings camera-ready format with author names on the paper. All accepted submissions will appear in the proceedings, and authors are expected to present their work. At least one author for each accepted paper must register before the camera ready version is due in order to be included in the proceedings. Research papers (maximum 10 pages) – blind review These submissions report innovative digital government research results in the form of a formal scholarly paper. Papers on any digital government topic and all research methodologies are welcome. Relevance to digital government problems, goals, or policies must be explicit. Management, case study, or policy papers (maximum 6 pages) – blind review These submissions describe and evaluate practical digital government projects or initiatives, discuss major policy themes, or present and evaluate management approaches to digital government initiatives and programs. Student research papers (maximum 10 pages) – blind review Digital government research papers authored solely by students should be submitted to this track. Student papers will also receive a double blind review organized and administered by the student program committee. Panels (maximum 4 pages) Proposals should include the theme and goals of the panel, a summary of the digital government issues or questions that the panel will address, statements about the value of the discussion to conference attendees and how well suited the topic is to a panel discussion. In addition, the proposal should include information about the expertise of the moderator and panelists in the selected issues. Please include names, institutional affiliations, addresses, email, and phone contact numbers of the contact person, moderator, and presenter(s). Posters (maximum of 2 pages) The poster session, held in conjunction with the system demonstrations, allows presenters to discuss research in progress, application projects, or government policies and program initiatives in one-to-one conversations with other participants at the conference. The 2-page summaries should outline the nature of the research, policy, or project and describe why the work will be of interest to dg.o attendees. Posters prepared for the conference should measure approximately 36" x 48." Each poster station is provided a table and an easel. Selected poster submissions may be asked to give an oral presentation in the conference sessions. System Demonstrations (maximum 2 pages) System demonstrations are held concurrently with the poster session to the accompaniment of good food and professional fellowship. The 2-page summaries should outline the nature of the system and describe why the demonstration is likely to be of interest to dg.o attendees. Demonstrations of interest include systems under development or in active use in research or practice domains. Submissions should include authors' names and contact information according to that format. Each station is provided a table, an easel, and Internet access. Monitors will be available for rent. Selected demo submissions may be asked to give an oral presentation in the conference sessions. Doctoral Colloqium (maximum 10 pages, not including references, tables and figures). PhD students can submit papers describing their planned or in-progress doctoral dissertation covering any research areas relevant to digital government. Ideally, student participants will have completed one or two years of doctoral study or progressed far enough in their research to have a structured proposal idea and perhaps some preliminary findings, but have not reached the stage of defending their dissertations. We expect students at this stage of study will gain the most value from feedback on their work and from the more general discussions of doctoral programs and scholarly careers. See the detailed announcement for complete information on the colloquium and how to submit an application. Birds-of-a-Feather Discussion Sessions (maximum 2 pages) Birds-of-a-Feather discussions provide an opportunity for participants to connect around selected topics. Proposals should identify the conveners, the intended participants, and key discussion questions. These conversations generally take place during lunch on one of the conference days. Pre-conference Tutorials (maximum 2 pages) dg.o tutorials are half- or full-day presentations offering deeper insight into the scientific and government domains, research topics or methods, technologies or field experience of veteran digital government researchers and practitioners. Pre-conference Research or Management Workshops (maximum 2 pages) We invite workshop proposals on any digital government research or management topic. Individuals proposing workshops will assume the responsibility of identifying and selecting participants for the workshop and for conducting workshop activities. OUTSTANDING ACHIEVEMENT AWARDS · All accepted management or policy papers, research papers, student papers, panels, posters, and system demonstrations will be published in the printed proceedings and included in the ACM digital library. Selected papers may be invited for a journal special issue. · Outstanding achievement awards will be presented in the categories research papers, management and policy papers, posters, and systems demonstrations. Papers that reflect the theme of the conference, a cross-boundary partnership linking government, citizens and data will be preferred. Other selection criteria include the interdisciplinary and innovative nature of the work, its contribution to and balance between theory (rigor) and practice (relevance), the importance and reach of the topic, and the quality of the writing for communicating to a broad audience. Journal Publications Selected high quality papers will be invited for submission to journal publications. _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

The general aim of ambient systems is to provide an environment wherein computing devices exist anywhere and everywhere. In such systems mobile and embedded computing devices form ad hoc collaboration using different communication networks (e.g., wireless networks, RFID, etc) in order to share and exchange information and provide services. Ambient systems pose new research challenges due to the open and unreliable nature of the environment and the complexity and heterogeneity of the computing devices and the underlying communication networks. These characteristics challenge traditional techniques and demand new ways of approaching the problems related to the ambient systems. TOPICS OF INTEREST ----------------------------- Prospective authors are invited to submit papers to the following research tracks. Details on topics of each track are available at the conference website. - Ambient-oriented Autonomic Networks and Communications - Ambient Systems Software Engineering - Ambient Systems Security and Privacy - Distributed Ambient Artificial Intelligence - Emerging Ambient Networking, Tracking and Sensing Technologies - Multimodal Interfaces for Ambient Systems - Service Oriented Computing for Ambient Systems& Applications - Smart Environments and Applications in Ambient Systems PUBLICATION ------------------- Papers accepted for the conference will be published in the proceedings of Communications in Computer and Information Science series, Springer.
