-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CFP: "Advanced Knowledge-based Systems" at KES 2009 with Data & Knowledge Engineering Spec Issue Datum: Fri, 20 Feb 2009 04:32:18 -0500 Von: Alfredo Cuzzocrea <cuzzocrea(a)si.deis.unical.it> Antwort an: Alfredo Cuzzocrea <cuzzocrea(a)si.deis.unical.it> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> Call for Papers --------------- Invited Session �Advanced Knowledge-based Systems� (http://si.deis.unical.it/~cuzzocrea/KES2009/) of the LNCS/LNAI 12nd International Conference on Knowledge-based and Intelligent Information & Engineering Systems (KES 2009) (http://kes2009.kesinternational.org/), September 28-30, 2009, Santiago, Chile. Selected papers from the session will be invited for submission to a special issue of Data & Knowledge Engineering (http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/journaldescription.cws_home/505608/descrip…), Elsevier (http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/homepage.cws_home). Aim and Scope ------------- Modern intelligent information systems require more and more for advanced knowledge representation, management, and discovery tools and techniques to be implemented within their core layers. This poses new challenges on the issue of devising innovative methodologies and paradigms in the context of a broad umbrella encompassing several research topics ranging from knowledge representation to knowledge integration, from knowledge management to knowledge processing, from knowledge discovery to knowledge delivery, and from knowledge security to privacy preserving knowledge. These argumentations put the basis for a novel class of intelligent systems, the so-called Advanced Knowledge-based Systems, which should be reasonably intended as intelligent information systems where knowledge representation, management, and discovery are emphasized in order to achieve complex functionalities beyond those of traditional information-oriented methodologies. Advanced Knowledge-based Systems arise in many fields: Advanced Database Management Systems, Advanced Data Warehouse Systems, Complex Data Mining Tools, OLAP Systems, Machine Learning Tools, Data/Information Integration Systems, Enterprise Information Systems, Business Information Systems, Cooperative Information Systems, Collaborative Information Systems, Complex Intelligent Information Systems, Hybrid Information Systems, Workflow Management Systems, Process Mining Systems, Ontology Representation and Management Systems, Web Intelligence Systems, Grid and Web Services Architectures, Data Stream Management Systems, Sensor Network Data Analysis Tools, and so forth. In all these research fields, despite some recent advancements, various aspects need to be further investigated, among which: formal foundations, knowledge representation methodologies and techniques, knowledge management methodologies and techniques, knowledge integration methodologies and techniques, knowledge processing methodologies and algorithms, knowledge discovery methodologies and algorithms, knowledge pattern extraction methodologies and algorithms, knowledge delivery methodologies and techniques, knowledge security methodologies and techniques, privacy preserving knowledge methodologies and techniques, advanced database management methodologies and algorithms, advanced query languages and techniques, database integration methodologies and techniques, ETL methodologies and algorithms, OLAP data cube computation and query processing techniques, data warehouse integration methodologies and techniques, data mining and machine learning algorithms and techniques, complex data mining techniques (e.g., multi-relational data mining), cooperative information processing methodologies and techniques, collaborative information processing methodologies and techniques, process representation and management methodologies and techniques, ontology representation and management methodologies and techniques, Web/Grid representation and management methodologies and techniques, data stream query languages, data stream information processing methodologies and techniques, and so forth. Following the success of the (previous) Invited Session Advanced Knowledge-based Systems (http://si.deis.unical.it/~cuzzocrea/KES2008/) of the 12nd International Conference on Knowledge-based and Intelligent Information & Engineering Systems (KES 2008) (http://kes2008.kesinternational.org/), held in Zagreb, Croatia, during September 3-5, 2008, the Invited Session Advanced Knowledge-based Systems of the 13th International Conference on Knowledge-based and Intelligent Information & Engineering Systems (KES 2009) (http://kes2009.kesinternational.org/), to be held in Santiago, Chile, during September 28-30, 2009, focuses on these aspects, by posing the emphasis on a theoretical as well as a practical point of view, and provides a forum for researchers and practitioners interested in Advanced Knowledge-based Systems to meet and exchange preliminary ideas and mature results.

[Fwd: [isworld] Call for Papers: BPD 2009]
by Gustaf Neumann 21 Feb '09

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] Call for Papers: BPD 2009 Datum: Fri, 20 Feb 2009 23:20:26 -0500 Von: Michael Rosemann <m.rosemann(a)qut.edu.au> Antwort an: Michael Rosemann <m.rosemann(a)qut.edu.au> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> CALL FOR PAPERS BPD09 - 5th International Workshop on Business Process Design (http://workshop.process-redesign.org) in conjunction with the 7th International Conference on Business Process Management (http://www.bpm2009.org) 7 September 2009 / Ulm, Germany Goals The BPD09 workshop is dedicated to the design, evaluation and comparison of process design or process improvement techniques, tools and methods. It�s aim is to provide a snapshot of the current research dedicated to process design and to comprehensively cover process enhancement approaches such as TRIZ, reference (best practice) models, process innovation or resource-based approaches to process improvement. We appreciate diversity in the underlying research methodologies and welcome papers along the entire Design Science-Behavioral Science continuum. Audience and Format The audience of the workshop consists of both BPM researchers and practitioners who have an interest in advancing the state of the art in process design (as in contrast to mere process modeling and execution). The BPD workshop has an established track record as a credible event affiliated with the BPM conference series and attracted over the last four years a high number of submissions. The last workshop in Milan (in conjunction with BPM 2008) attracted 21 submissions of which 7 were selected for presentation; some 30 people attended the workshop. Important Dates Paper submission deadline: 7 May 2009 Notification of acceptance: 2 June 2009 Camera ready: 17 June 2009 Workshop day: 7 September 2009 Background Conscious (re)design of business processes is a powerful means for the pro-active improvement of process performance as well as for the more re-active achievement of higher process conformance. Despite its popularity and obvious pay-offs, process design is still more art than science. Many methodologies on the subject remain relatively vague about how to actually derive superior process designs. The practice of business process design tends to rely on the creativity of business professionals to come up with new process lay-outs, but the outcomes of such efforts are hard to predict. More scientific approaches have focused often on only small, well-understood business domains and are either centered around atomic improvement proposals or rather general reference models. Overall, much more attention is devoted to process modeling techniques and standards. In a way, this is similar to agreeing on the language, without knowing what to say. The aim of this workshop is to continue the ongoing and successful discussions of the last three BPD workshops to further nurture a body of knowledge on the disciplined, well-understood and appropriately evaluated design of business processes. We have witnessed in the previous BPD workshops that besides research on BPD methodologies, there is a trend and a focus on addressing constraints in process design, user involvement, process reference models and process design quality. Papers that introduce innovative tools for process design as well as soft issues (human aspects) and quantitative aspects (e.g. financial evaluation of proposed process improvements) will be particularly welcome. We aim to bring together researchers and practitioners who have an interest in advancing the state of the art in process design (as in contrast to mere process modeling). We seek contributions by authors who wish to share their innovative ideas and remarkable observations on the subject. Two main categories of submissions/presentations will be considered: a) regular papers and b) industry papers. All submissions have to follow the procedure explained below under the heading "Paper Submission". Topics Topics of the workshop include but are not limited to: - Process (re)design objectives - Process inefficiencies diagnosis - Process (re)design methods and methodologies - Process (re)design tools - Process (re)design evaluation - Process reference models - Process innovation - Constraints in process design (e.g. legislative requirements, compliance) - Process design governance - Process design for emerging challenges (e.g. greening of processes) - Collaborative process design - Human aspects (involvement, participation, acceptance) in process design - Process (re)design in the large - Linking process design to the design of strategies - Process design maintenance - Success factors in process design - Case studies and experiments Format of the Workshop The workshop will consist of presentations of the accepted papers and an additional keynote speaker. Papers will be reviewed by at least three members of the program committee. All accepted papers will be published in the workshop proceedings published by Springer-Verlag as a post-proceeding volume in their Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing (LNBIP) series. At least one author for each accepted paper has to register for the workshop and present the paper. Paper Submission Prospective authors are invited to submit papers for presentation in any of the areas listed above. Only papers in English will be accepted. Length of full papers must not exceed 12 pages. There is no possibility to buy additional pages. Papers should be submitted in the new LNBIP format (http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-7-487211-0). Papers have to present original research contributions not concurrently submitted elsewhere. The title page must contain a short abstract, a classification of the topics covered, preferably using the list of topics above, and an indication of the submission category (regular paper/position paper/tool report). Papers (preferably in PDF format) should be submitted electronically.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] REMINDER - CFP - Special Forum Decision Sciences Journal - New Frontiers in Collaborative Decision Making Datum: Fri, 20 Feb 2009 19:06:25 -0500 Von: Paulo Goes <pgoes(a)eller.arizona.edu> Antwort an: Paulo Goes <pgoes(a)eller.arizona.edu> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> Call for Papers Decision Sciences Journal Special Topic Forum New Frontiers in Collaborative Decision Making Associate Editor Team Paulo B. Goes, University of Arizona José A. Pino, University of Chile Asoo Vakharia, University of Florida Deadline for submissions: March 1, 2009 In recent years, there has been a renewed interest in collaborative decision making in a variety of business settings. One major reason for this could be the increases in globalization of business operations leading to geographically dispersed executives and decision makers. Information technology plays a key role in supporting and facilitating collaborative efforts in these settings and the area of Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) addresses issues in the design, development, and implementation of information technology tools to support group decision making. Some of the well-known IT tools developed in this arena and used extensively today include web 2.0, social networks, wikis, multi-player games, and virtual team environments. From a business perspective, collaborative IT-based tools are vital enablers to address multiple strategic and tactical problems. These include new product design and development, coordination of virtual teams located across continents, vendor and outsourcing management, designing effective and efficient supply chains, and knowledge management systems There are a few documented success stories in the application of IT to support business decision making. For example ECR (Efficient Consumer Response) is one mechanism which has been used to enhance collaborative decision making in the supply chain. Another emerging concept in global corporations is the �24-Hour Knowledge Factory�, which can be used to support the collaborative efforts between globally dispersed team members. However, what seems to be lacking is some focus in terms of problem settings and corresponding tools/technologies to support collaborative decision making. It is time, therefore, to reflect on the value of IT tools and their applicability to support and enhance collaborative decision making. This is the major motivation underlying this STF in the Decision Sciences Journal. Topics of Interest for this special issue on the use of IT tools to support collaborative decision making include, but are not limited to: � Evaluating the current state of the fields of CSCW and decision making; � Reviewing, extending, and developing theoretical paradigms linking these fields; � New IT models, methods and techniques to enhance collaborative decision making; � Application of IT tools in supporting decision making in: o New Product Design and Development; o Supply Chain Management; and o Managing Virtual Teams; � Managing Knowledge �Factories� Building on the editorial mission of Decision Sciences, this STF seeks manuscripts utilizing diverse research approaches such as empirical, simulation, and/or analytical research methods. Articles published in this STF must meet Decision Sciences high standards of research rigor and originality, while embracing managerial relevance, not only in the research problem studied, but also in their impact on enhanced decision making. STFs consist of a collection of three to five articles that are published in a regular issue along with other peer-reviewed articles. Manuscript preparation and submission instructions can be found on journal�s web site at http://decisionsciencesjournal.org/Help/Author/author_Guidelines.cfm. In the cover letter, please indicate that your submission is for the New Frontiers in Collaborative Decision Making STF. The deadline for submissions is March 1, 2009.

W. on Data Warehousing and Knowledge Discovery from Sensors and Streams with KAIS Spec Issue Datum: Fri, 20 Feb 2009 11:06:06 -0500 Von: Alfredo Cuzzocrea <cuzzocrea(a)si.deis.unical.it> Antwort an: Alfredo Cuzzocrea <cuzzocrea(a)si.deis.unical.it> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> Call for Papers --------------- First International Workshop on Data Warehousing and Knowledge Discovery from Sensors and Streams (DKSS 2009) (http://si.deis.unical.it/cuzzocrea/DKSS2009/) in conjunction with the 5th International Conference on Distributed Computing in Sensor Systems (DCOSS 2009) (DCOSS 2009) (http://www.dcoss.org/index.php), June 8-10 2009, Marina Del Rey, California, USA. Selected papers from the workshop will be invited for submission to a special issus of Knowledge and Information Systems (http://www.springer.com/computer/information+systems/journal/10115), Springer (http://www.springer.com/?SGWID=5-102-0-0-0) Workshop Chair -------------- Alfredo Cuzzocrea (http://si.deis.unical.it/cuzzocrea/), ICAR-CNR and University of Calabria, Italy Aim and Scope ------------- During last years, the issue of effectively and efficiently supporting data warehousing and knowledge discovery from sensor networks, and, more generally, data stream sources, which can be reasonably intended as a meaningfully generalization of the former kind of networks, is gaining a more and more great deal of interest from the data warehousing and knowledge discovery research community. Main research issues in this scientific field arise from the clear and well-recognized unsuitability of traditional data warehousing and knowledge discovery methodologies, techniques and algorithms in dealing with the new challenges posed by sensor network data and, more generally, data streams. Indeed, traditional approaches are meant for multi-step methodologies and techniques, and multi-scan algorithms, which cannot be straightforwardly applied to sensor network data and data streams, due to well-known limitations such as bounded memory, online/timely data processing, need for one-pass techniques, energy consumption issues etc. Starting from these limitations, a plethora of data warehousing and knowledge discovery methodologies, techniques and algorithms have been proposed during these last years, and, simultaneously, a more and more large number of research events have focused their attention to this leading research challenge. Following this actual trend and the previous successful related event represented by the book Intelligent Techniques for Warehousing and Mining Sensor Network Data (http://si.deis.unical.it/~cuzzocrea/SensorBook2007/), the First International Workshop on Data Warehousing and Knowledge Discovery from Sensors and Streams, which will be held in Marina Del Rey, CA, USA, during June 8-10, 2009, in conjunction with the 5th International Conference on Distributed Computing in Sensor Systems (DCOSS 2009) (http://www.dcoss.org/index.php), will provide a leading forum for researchers and practitioners interested in data warehousing and knowledge discovery from sensor network data and data streams, to meet and exchange preliminary ideas and mature results, with emphasis on both the theoretical and practical point of view.

Simultaneously, the convergence of various types of software service models such as SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) and PaaS (Platform-as-a-Service) with Web 2.0 technologies is fostering novel service ecosystems like Web-based service communities, service value networks or electronic service markets. These disruptive developments are presenting new opportunities and challenges and require interdisciplinary research effort to develop new models and approaches that leverage technical capabilities of Web-based software services as well as the socio- economic characteristics of their applications. The ASOS09 workshop focuses on applications of software services, in particular on concepts, methods and technologies that bridge the gap between software service technologies and the socio-economic environments they are empowering. The goal of the workshop is to foster interdisciplinary communication and bring together researchers and practitioners from various fields to share their vision of the future of software services. WORKSHOP TOPICS Contributions might include position statements, case studies and original research on application of software services and related enabling technologies. Workshop topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following: - Service value networks - Collaboration services - Human-based eServices - Service communities - Software services in virtual organisations and dynamic organisational networks - Electronic service markets - Participational Web and service mashups - Service cloud ecosystems - Cloud service models (e.g. SaaS, PaaS) - Case studies of software services applications SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS Authors are invited to submit original, previously unpublished research papers in English that must not exceed 12 pages for full papers or 4 pages for position papers. Papers should be formatted as per instructions for authors (using the Microsoft Word template provided) and submitted electronically via the workshop website.
