-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CfP SOBNE '09 at IEEE EDOC 2009 Datum: Thu, 28 May 2009 02:02:14 -0400 Von: Axel Korthaus <axel.korthaus(a)qut.edu.au> Antwort an: Axel Korthaus <axel.korthaus(a)qut.edu.au> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> *** Deadline is quickly approaching! *** CALL FOR PAPERS =============== 1st Workshop on �Service-Oriented Business Networks and Ecosystems� (SOBNE �09) <http://sky.scitech.qut.edu.au/~korthaus/SOBNE2009/> to be held on Tuesday, 1 September 2009 (preliminary date) in Auckland, New Zealand, at the Thirteenth IEEE International EDOC Conference (EDOC 2009) <https://www.se.auckland.ac.nz/conferences/edoc2009/> Important Dates =============== Workshop papers due: 31 May 2009 Workshop paper acceptance notification: 12 July 2009 Camera-ready workshop papers due: 27 July 2009 Day of workshop (preliminary date): 1 Sept. 2009 Background ========== The continuing trends towards an accelerated speed of change and the need to differentiate through innovation force organisations to optimise collaboration within their business networks of employees, suppliers, customers, partners and distributors to maximize both competitive advantage and the productivity of non-differentiating tasks. Key enablers for meeting these challenges include approaches such as Software-as-a-Service, business process outsourcing and the service-oriented paradigm, which has been successfully applied on the technical level to design and implement very flexible and adaptable IT infrastructures and architectures. Increasingly, the service-oriented paradigm also extends towards the business level and provides new perspectives to organise a company�s capabilities and to allow for the easy combination of services to create new business opportunities. Future business value networks will need to quickly react to changes in service demands. New opportunities for innovative service-oriented business models will arise and new roles of players, such as those of service brokers and service aggregators in service marketplaces, will emerge to address the deployment, publishing, discovery, recombination, repurposing, re-branding, delivery to different business channels and monitoring of services in service ecosystems. Service ecosystems can be seen as service-oriented systems that grow up from independent initiatives, yet interact in seamless ways to support complex business processes. Large research programs revolving around new approaches to service orientation, such as the Smart Services CRC in Australia and the Theseus/TEXO lighthouse project in Germany, underline the significance of current service ecosystems research. Related research streams that are of relevance for service ecosystems research include, among others, business value networks, Internet of Services, networked organisations and interorganisational information systems. This workshop aims to explore the principles, challenges and enablers of service-oriented approaches to support and establish service ecosystems of collaborating organisations. It will ad- dress all technical and business-related aspects revolving around the design, deployment and management of service ecosystems to create or transform business operations or processes by reusing and connecting services from different providers. The workshop intends to complement the main scientific program of EDOC 2009 with presentations and discussions of both mature and preliminary project results, ideas, experiences, and knowledge in a way that is more interactive and more focused than paper sessions in the main conference program. The idea is to facilitate useful exchanges of ideas, the improvement of understanding of topics and issues, and the clearer identification of important open research issues and possible approaches towards their solution. Moreover, the workshop should serve as an opportunity for participants to coordinate efforts and establish collaborations. Topics ====== The topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Service Portfolio Management * Service Governance * Service Engineering * (Semantic) Service Discovery * Service Analysis and Design * Service Brokerage and Aggregation * Service Description Models * Service Innovation * Services and Policies * Service-Oriented Architectures * Service Lifecycle in Service Ecosystems * Service Delivery Platforms and Infrastructures for Service Ecosystems * Service-Oriented Business Models * Roles in Service Ecosystems, e.g. Service Brokers, Service Aggregators * Business Service Aggregation and Composition Patterns * Service-Oriented Business Network Management * Relation to Internet of Services, Business Value Networks, Networked Organisations, Interorganisational Information Systems * Management of Service-Oriented Businesses * Theoretical foundation and empirical investigation of existing manifestations of service ecosystems * Case studies etc. Submission, Workshop Proceedings, Paper Presentation, Awards ============================================================ To facilitate discussion of recent research results and ongoing projects, short papers (4 pages in the IEEE-CS format) are sought for, in addition to full papers (8-10 pages in the IEEE-CS format) describing more mature results. There will be one discussion session that complements sessions with presentations of peer-reviewed full and short workshop papers. Proceedings of EDOC 2009 workshops will be published after the conference as ePub by the IEEE Computer Society Conference Publishing Services (CPS) and included in the IEEE Computer Society Digital Library (CSDL) and the IEEE Xplore. Electronic (and potentially paper) proceedings will be prepared for distribution to workshop participants at the EDOC 2009 conference. All papers published in the EDOC 2009 workshop proceedings must be in the IEEE Computer Society format. It is strongly recommended that all papers are already in this format when they are first submitted to the workshop. (This gives precise picture of the paper length and avoids rework if the paper is accepted.) At least 1 author of each accepted workshop paper will have to register for the whole EDOC 2009 conference and attend the workshop to present the paper. (Analogously to previous years, there will be no workshop-only registration at EDOC 2009.) If a paper is not presented in the workshop, it will be removed from the workshop proceedings published in the IEEE Xplore digital library. It is planned to give an award for the "best workshop paper" (most promising research, greatest idea etc.). Moreover, there will also be a "best reviewer" award to reward high-quality reviews and useful feedback to workshop paper authors. Please submit your paper on or before the due date to the first workshop organiser Dr. Axel Korthaus by email (axel.korthaus(a)qut.edu.au).

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).

[Fwd: [isworld] CfP: 4th Int'l Workshop on Vocabularies, Ontologies and Rules for The Enterprise (VORTE 2009)]
by Gustaf Neumann 27 May '09

27 May '09

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CfP: 4th Int'l Workshop on Vocabularies, Ontologies and Rules for The Enterprise (VORTE 2009) Datum: Tue, 26 May 2009 17:20:02 -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 http://oxygen.informatik.tu-cottbus.de/VORTE/ Selected papers will be published in the ISI-indexed JRPIT journal Keynote speaker: John Hosking, University of Auckland, New Zealand 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".

[Fwd: [isworld] Publication of Vol.10, No.2, 2009 issue of Journal of Electronic Commerce Research]

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] Publication of Vol.10, No.2, 2009 issue of Journal of Electronic Commerce Research Datum: Tue, 26 May 2009 14:10:24 -0700 Von: Melody Kiang <mkiang(a)csulb.edu> Antwort an: Melody Kiang <mkiang(a)csulb.edu> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> CC: mkiang(a)csulb.edu Dear Colleagues, On behalf of the Journal of Electronic Commerce Research (JECR), I am pleased to announce that Vol. 10, Number 2, 2009 issue of JECR is now available at the journal web site: "http://www.jecr.org". This is a regular issue, guest co-edited by Dr. Frank Schlemmer, Optik Schlemmer, Germany and Dr. Brian Webb, Queens University Management School, UK. The Journal of Electronic Commerce Research has published its volume 10, issue 2, which includes four articles. In the first article, Becerra and Korgaonkar describe how Hispanic and the U.S. Culture influence shopping behavior. A set of hypotheses about factors that affect the intentions to search for information online and the intentions to purchase information online are tested. The results offer some surprises. In the second article, Rupak Rauniar and his colleagues identified key success factors for the performance of eBays website. This is interesting, because the context of C2C auctions differs from other e-Commerce environments. Unlike other e-commerce websites, C2C auctioneers such as eBay and Amazon operate as unaligned third parties, creating a virtual platform for the auction users (e.g. buyers and sellers) to meet and conduct purchase transactions. Shen and Eder, in the third article investigate the potential of Second Life for business activities by exploring individuals intentions to use the technology for business-related purposes. They modify the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), and suggest that perceived usefulness and perceived enjoyment have significant impacts on behavioral intentions to use Second Life for business activities, while perceived ease of use is not related to behavioral intentions. In the fourth and final article Hai and Shouhong Wang deploy sequence data analysis for explaining why so many online customers abandon their shopping carts. The application of their algorithm to a house-hardware retailer should be insightful for both, researchers and practitioners. We hope that you will find these articles useful and that you will enjoy reading them.
