-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] Empirical Studies in Software Architecture - Special Issue Datum: Mon, 23 Mar 2009 12:35:53 -0500 Von: Muhammad Ali Babar <muhammad.alibabar(a)lero.ie> Antwort an: Muhammad Ali Babar <muhammad.alibabar(a)lero.ie> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> Call for Papers Special Issue of the Empirical Software Engineering Journal 'Empirical Studies in Software Architecture: Opportunities, Approaches, and Challenges' http://www.lmsa-community.org/wikis/index.php/ESE-SA --------------------------------- Guest Editors M. Ali Babar, Lero, Ireland. Patricia Lago, VU University Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Arie van Deursen, Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands. ---------------------------------- Important dates Deadline for submission: 30 July 2009 Date of notification to authors (first round): 15 October 2009 Proposed date of publication: Tentatively in Spring 2010 ---------------------------------- Context and Theme In recent years, the software architecture community (i.e., researchers and practitioners) has developed many methods, techniques, and tools to support software architecture design, documentation, and evaluation activities. However, apart from a few exceptions, there has been little effort to gather and use empirical evidence to support the claims of efficacy or capabilities of different methods and techniques developed for supporting the software architecture process. The aim of this special issue is to provide an authoritative reference on systematically selecting and rigorously applying suitable empirical methods for evaluating methods, techniques, and tools developed for supporting the software architecture process. This issue is particularly interested in carefully designed and rigorously conducted empirical studies to demonstrate the strengths and weaknesses of different methods, techniques, tools (e.g., ADLs, design methods, analysis tools) developed to support the software architecture process (i.e., design, description, and evaluation). The editors of this special issue have made available some example papers and relevant guidelines published in software engineering literature at http://www.lmsa-community.org/wikis/index.php/ESE-SA . Although not mandatory, we strongly encourage the authors interested in submitting their work to carefully examine these papers and give full considerations to the guidelines papers while preparing their manuscripts for this special issue. Articles on the following topics are of interest. In all cases appropriateness of the empirical research design and reliability and validity of the achieved results should be emphasized: � Empirical analysis of the benefits and limitations of different architecture design methods � Empirical comparisons of different Architectural Description Languages (ADLs) and architectural modeling tools � Empirical analyses of contemporary and emerging approaches to architecting (e.g., aspect-oriented, model-driven, and service-oriented) � Empirical studies illustrating benefits and limitations of technologies for architectural knowledge and rationale management � Empirical studies aimed at clarifying the misconceptions and false hopes of applying architectural styles and patterns � Experience reports or empirical case studies, particularly those that demonstrate the scope and limitations of architecture design, description, and evaluation approaches. o Papers describing the failures in using certain approaches will be of as much interest as the papers of success stories. � Empirical studies describing the social, organizational, and economic aspects of institutionalizing architectural practices � Survey papers that present either the state-of-the-art or the state-of-the-practice to examine and compare past results in this area, particularly survey papers focusing on limitations. Particular interest will be paid to surveys using published results to assess the strength of evidence provided and illustrate the limitations of the studied approaches. -------------------------------- Submission guidelines All manuscripts should be compliant with the journal's submission guidelines, which can be accessed by visiting journal's website (http://www.springer.com/computer/programming/journal/10664 ) and must not have been published previously or be currently under consideration for publication in any other journals or conferences. Significant extensions to substantive papers published in conferences are also welcome, provided that the editors are made aware of the previous publications. The paper submissions via the online submission system at http://www.editorialmanager.com/emse/ ------------------------------- For further information and relevant literature, please visit the special issue's website: http://www.lmsa-community.org/wikis/index.php/ESE-SA For any kind of inquiry, Please contact one of the guest editors: M.

[Fwd: [isworld] CfP: 4th International Workshop on Vocabularies, Ontologies and Rules for The Enterprise (VORTE 2009)]
by Gustaf Neumann 24 Mar '09

24 Mar '09

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CfP: 4th International Workshop on Vocabularies, Ontologies and Rules for The Enterprise (VORTE 2009) Datum: Mon, 23 Mar 2009 21:47:10 -0700 Von: Dragan Gasevic <dgasevic(a)acm.org> Antwort an: Dragan Gasevic <dgasevic(a)acm.org> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> CALL FOR PAPERS The 4th International Workshop on Vocabularies, Ontologies and Rules for The Enterprise (VORTE 2009) Co-located with the 13th IEEE International EDOC Conference Auckland, New Zealand, August 31st, 2009 Selected papers will be published in the ISI-indexed JRPIT journal (subject to the final approval) WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION The VORTE series of workshops is devoted to the topics of vocabularies, ontologies and rules in the context of enterprise systems. The complexity of enterprise systems; the increasing needs for advanced collaboration between various systems within one institution or among many collaborating parties; and the velocity of organizational, policy, structural and market changes strongly call for immediate mobilization of the research community to develop more flexible and reliable technologies for the development of enterprise systems. Trying to respond to this urgent research need, the VORTE series of workshops has been established in order to bring together researchers and practitioners that are looking into the topics of ontologies and rules in enterprise system development from different yet complementary perspectives. The major objective is to provide a research forum for exchanging ideas and results covering the use of ontologies and rules in various stages of the development lifecycle of enterprise systems. Examples of topics covered by VORTE fundamental research contributions include the ontological evaluation of enterprise systems and their interoperability and the investigation of the use of ontologies and rules in business process modelling. Applied research contributions include enhancing business rule engines and business process management systems by ontologies and formal semantics for rules. From the enterprise system development perspective research topics are focused on relations of process modelling and execution languages with business ontologies and rules, and how business ontologies and rules used in enterprise models are further propagated into technologies (e.g., semantic web) and architectures (e.g., service-oriented architectures) that enable collaboration between heterogeneous enterprise systems. The workshop also welcomes experience reports and empirical studies that are reporting on the use of ontologies and rules in the enterprise system development lifecycle. VORTE 2009 is the 4th workshop associated with the EDOC conference series that intends to bring together researchers and practitioners in areas such as philosophical ontology, enterprise modelling, information systems, semantic web, model-driven engineering, business rules, and business process management. The goal of the workshop is to discuss the role that (foundational and domain) ontologies/vocabularies and business rules play in the conceptual design and implementation of next generation enterprise solutions. SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION We solicit two types of papers: - short papers (4 pages) discussing controversial issues in the field or describe interesting or thought-provoking ideas that are not yet fully developed; and - full papers (8-10 pages) describing more mature results than short papers. All submissions MUST conform to the two-column format of IEEE Computer Society conference proceedings (http://www.computer.org/portal/pages/cscps/cps/cps_forms.html) and include the author's name, affiliation, and contact details. Papers must be submitted as PDF files using EasyChair at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=vorte2009. All papers must not have been previously published or submitted elsewhere. The papers accepted for the EDOC 2009 Workshops will be published after the workshop with an ISBN in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library. At least one of the authors for each accepted paper must register for the main conference (there will be no workshop-only registration at EDOC 2009) and present their papers at the workshop. The registration needs to be done via the EDOC 2009 website (https://www.se.auckland.ac.nz/conferences/edoc2009/). Post-conference Journal Publication We are planning to invite selected papers for publication in the ISI-indexed JRPIT journal (http://www.acs.org.au/jrpit/, subject to the final approval). Status updates will be announced on the web site and in the VORTE2009 Google group (http://groups.google.com/group/vorte2009) (RSS: http://groups.google.com/group/vorte2009/feed/atom_v1_0_msgs.xml). KEYNOTE John Hosking from the University of Auckland has agreed to be the keynote speaker. The title of John's presentation is "Supporting model driven engineering using the Marama meta toolset".

Formal learning is surrounded by informal learning opportunities, classroom learning is complemented by workplace learning, and even the frontiers between teaching and learning are disappearing as people are learning collaboratively and engaging in knowledge communities. These developments are driven by technological advancements: large scale knowledge repositories provide learners with content and support them in an individualized and adaptive way; semantic technologies provide contextualized and task-specific information; the Web 2.0 enables people to actively take part in knowledge communication and knowledge construction. These new tools and technical means need psychological and pedagogical models of learning which take into account the vast diversity of situations where learning takes place, as well as the specific needs of individuals, tutors and organisations. ECTEL 2009 aims to bring together new technological developments and learning models. The conference will explore how the synergy of multiple disciplines, ranging from Computer Science, Education, Psychology, Cognitive Science, and Social Science, can provide new, more effective and more sustainable, technology-enhanced learning solutions. The conference welcomes researchers from European and Non-European countries and industries to present recent advancements from technologies, applications, and learning models in all areas of technology enhanced learning. *TOPICS OF INTEREST Novel technologies for learning: * --------------------------- Large scale sharing and interoperability Network infrastructures (peer to peer, ad-hoc networks, GRID) Semantic web and web 2.0 Web services architectures Sensors and sensor networks Mobile technologies Roomware and ubiquitous computing Data mining and social networks Intelligent games User-adaptive systems and personalisation Natural language processing *Pedagogical issues for TEL: *--------------------------- Learning communities & communities of practise Problem- and project-based learning; inquiry based learning Collaborative knowledge building Scripting Game-based learning Instructional design Evaluation methods for TEL Learner motivation and engagement *Individual, social & organisational learning processes:* --------------------------- Cognitive mechanisms in knowledge construction Social processes Knowledge management and organisational learning Sustainability & TEL business models * Learning contexts and domains:* --------------------------- Formal education Small, medium and large companies Distance learning Vocational training Informal learning Workplace learning Learning domains, e.g. science, language, music, geography, history From kindergarten to elderly people TEL in developing countries TEL for disabled persons *CALL FOR PAPERS * The conference will explore how the synergy of multiple disciplines, ranging from Computer Science, Education, Psychology, Cognitive Science, and Social Science, can provide new, more effective and more sustainable, technology-enhanced learning solutions.

ICAIS'09 will serve as a space to present the current state of the art but also future research avenues of this thematic. Topics of the conference cover three aspects: Algorithms & theories of adaptation and learning, Adaptation issues in Hardware, Applications. ICAIS will feature contributed papers as well as world-renowned guest speakers (see webpage), interactive breakout sessions, and instructional workshops. * * * SCOPE OF THE CONFERENCE * * * Adaptation plays a central role in dynamically changing systems. It is about the ability of the system to "responsively" self-adjust upon change in the surrounding environment. Like in living creatures that have evolved over millions of years developing ecological systems due to their self-adaptation and fitness capacity to the dynamic environment, systems undergo similar cycle to improve or at least do not weaken their performance when internal or external changes take place. Internal or endogenous change bears on the physical structure of the system (the building blocks: hardware and/or software components) due mainly to faults and knowledge inconsistency. It requires a certain number of adaptivity features such as flexible deployment, self-testing, self-healing and self-correction. Extraneous change touches on the environment implication such operational mode or regime, non-stationarity of input, new knowledge facts, interference, etc. The two classes of change also shed light on the research avenues towards smart systems. To meet the challenges of these systems, a sustainable effort is necessary to develop intelligent hardware on one level and concepts and algorithms on the other level. The former level may concern various analog and digital adjustments but also self-healing, self-testing, reconfiguration and many other aspects of system development and maintenance. The latter level is concerned with developing algorithms, concepts and techniques which can rely on metaphors of nature and which are inspired from biological and cognitive plausibility. This two-fold plausibility is the basis for many computational models such as neural networks, evolutionary computation, probabilistic reasoning and many other soft computing and machine learning models. Taking stock of both classes of changes, a system must self-adapt its structure and self-adjust its parameters over time as changes occur. A fundamental issue is the notion of "self" which refers to the capability of the system to act and react on its own and which covers all stages of the system's working and maintenance cycle starting from online self-monitoring to self-growing and self-organizing. * * * TARGET TOPICS (but not limited to) * * * - Theories and Algorithms o Self growing neural networks o Online adaptive and life-long learning o Plasticity and stability o Forgetting o Unlearning o Online adaptive neuro-fuzzy rule-based systems o Online adaptive fuzzy identification systems o Adaptation in changing environments o Concept drift o Self-monitoring o Online diagnostics o Novelty detection o Time series prediction o Online and single-pass data mining o Online information routing o Online classification systems o Online clustering o Online regression o Online feature selection and reduction o Adaptive decision systems o Adaptive preference learning o Principles of self-organization o Methodologies of self-organization o Perception and evolution o Adaptivity and online learning models in computational intelligence - Applications : Adaptivity and learning in o Smart systems o Ambient / ubiquitous environments o Distributed intelligence o Intelligent agent technology o Robotics o Industrial applications o Internet o E-commerce, etc - Hardware: o Evolvable hardware o Bio-inspired architecture o Self-healing systems o Self-reconfigurable systems o Evolutionary hardware design o Evolutionary circuit synthesis o Evolutionary Robotics o Hardware/Software co-evolution o Adaptive Hardware o Embryonic hardware o Evolutionary circuit diagnostics and testing o MEMS and nanotechnology in evolvable hardware * * * SUBMISSION * * * Papers must be in PDF, not exceeding 6 pages and conforming to IEEE Specifications and submitted through the submission system (http://www.isys.uni-klu.ac.at/icais09/openconf/openconf.php).

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: Call for papers BPMS2'09 in conjunction with BPM'09 Datum: Sun, 22 Mar 2009 13:35:31 +0100 Von: Selmin Nurcan <nurcan(a)univ-paris1.fr> An: Rainer Schmidt <Rainer.Schmidt(a)htw-aalen.de>, Selmin Nurcan <Selmin.Nurcan(a)univ-paris1.fr> Dear BPMS2'08 Author, As you know, BPMS2'09 will be held in conjunction with BPM 2009 at Ulm. The Call for Papers can be downloaded from the BPMS2'09 Web site : http://crinfo.univ-paris1.fr/users/nurcan/BPMS2_2009/ Please note that the Program Committee has been extended with the participation of new members well known in their domains. We are kindly asking you to submit a paper for the second edition of the workshop. I will also be grateful to you for advertising BPMS2'09 in conjunction with the International Conference on Business Process Management and for inviting your colleagues and/or research students to submit their work. The conference web site: http://www.uni-ulm.de/in/iui-bpm09 We are looking forward to meet you in Ulm. Best regards, Selmin and Rainer P.S.: We are still waiting the results for our submission to the special issue. *********************************************************************************************** Call for Papers *Second International Workshop on Business Process Management and Social Software (BPMS2) *in conjunction with BPM 2009 September 7th, 2009, Ulm, Germany http://crinfo.univ-paris1.fr/users/nurcan/BPMS2_2009/ *Organizers: *Selmin Nurcan University Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne, France Rainer Schmidt Aalen University , Germany *Papers submission deadline: May 7th, 2009 *Detailed Call for Papers is below. *********************************************************************************************** -/------------8<-------------------8<-------------------8<-------------------8<-------------------8<-------------------8<------------------- /*BPMS2 2009 *CALL FOR PAPERS *Second International Workshop on Business Process Management and Social Software (BPMS2)* in conjunction with BPM 2009 September 7th, 2009, Ulm, Germany *Papers submission deadline: *May 7th, 2009 http://crinfo.univ-paris1.fr/users/nurcan/BPMS2_2009/ *Organizers: *Selmin Nurcan University Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne, France Rainer Schmidt Aalen University , Germany *SCOPE:* Social software is a new paradigm that is spreading quickly in society, organizations and economics. It supports social interaction and social production. Social interaction is the interaction of non-predetermined individuals. Social production is the creation of artefacts, by combining the input from independent contributors without predetermining the way to do this. Users are supported in creating new contacts, presenting themselves and collaborating with other users. As a result, content, knowledge and software is not created by a hierarchy of experts, but by combining a multitude of contributions of independent authors/actors. Examples for such a social production are wikis, blogs, social bookmarking and tagging, etc. Social software follows a more egalitarian and meritocratic approach compared to traditional approaches where the role of the software user is determined by the enterprise senior management and its representatives. Thus, trust and reputation play a crucial role in the use of social software instead of authority granted by the top management. The paradigm of social software and social production has created a multitude of success stories such as wikipedia.org and the development of the Linux operating system. Therefore, more and more enterprises see social software and social production as a means for further improvement of their business processes and business models. For example, they integrate their customers into product development by using blogs to capture ideas for new products and features. Thus, business processes have to be adapted to new communication patterns between customers and the enterprise: for example, the communication with the customer is increasingly a bi-directional communication with the customer and among the customers. Social software also offers new possibilities to enhance business processes by improving the exchange of knowledge and information, to speed up decisions, etc. Up to now, the interaction of social software and the underlying paradigm of social production with business processes have not been investigated in depth. Therefore, the objective of the workshop is to explore how social software and social production interact with business process management, how business process management has to change to comply with social production, and how business processes may profit from social techniques. *TOPICS OF INTEREST:* *1. New opportunities provided by social software for BPM * - How can business processes fit to business models based on the paradigm of social production? - Which new possibilities for the design of business processes are created by social software? - How are trust and reputation established in business processes using social software? - Are there business processes which require sociality, especially when they are not well defined (as production workflows) but collaborative or ad hoc? - How does social production influence the design of business processes? - What is the impact on conceptual models for those categories of business processes which are not well-defined or that we do not wish to freeze using classical business process enactment systems for instance? *2. Engineering next generation of business processes: BPM 2.0 ? * - Do we need new BPM methods and/or paradigms to cope with social software? - Is there an influence of social production and social software on BPM methods themselves? - Are there any similarities or relationships with process mining techniques and also with workflow control and role patterns? - Which phases of the BPM lifecycle (Design, Deployment, Performance, and Evaluation) are affected the most by social software? - How can BPM profit from using social software? - Which types of social software can be used in which phases of the BPM lifecycle? *3. Business process implementation support by social software * - Which kinds of social software can be used to implement business processes? - Which categories of business processes can profit from social software? - How does social software interact with WFMS or other business process support systems? - How can we use Wikis, Blogs etc. to support business processes? - What new kinds of business knowledge representation are offered by social production? *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). Position papers and tool reports should be no longer than 6 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 emailed to _Rainer.Schmidt(a)htw-aalen.de_. The paper selection will be based upon the relevance of a paper to the main topics, as well as upon its quality and potential to generate relevant discussion. All the workshop papers will be published by Springer as a post-proceeding volume (to be sent around 4 months after the workshop) in their Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing (LNBIP) series. *EXPECTED RESULTS: *All papers will be published on workshop wiki before the workshop, so that everybody can learn about the problems that are important for other participants. A blog will be used to encourage and support discussions. The workshop will consist of long and short paper presentations, brainstorming sessions and discussions. The workshop report will be created collaboratively using a wiki. A special issue over all workshops will be published in a journal (decision in progress). *IMPORTANT DATES: Paper submission:* *May 7, 2009 *Author notification:* June 2, 2009 *Camera-ready: * June 17, 2009 PROGRAM COMMITTEE : *Ilia Bider - IbisSoft, Sweden Jan Bosch - Intuit, Mountain View, California, USA Tad Hogg - HP Information Dynamics Laboratory, Palo Alto, USA Ralf Klamma - Informatik 5, RWTH Aachen, Germany Dragan Gasevic - School of Computing and Information Systems, Athabasca University, Canada Werner Geyer - IBM T.J.
