Sponsored by ACM SIGPLAN in cooperation with SIGSOFT Co-located with OOPSLA 2009 Orlando, Florida October 25-29 2009 http://www.onward-conference.org *** Deadline approaching *** June 26, 2009 Submission of short research papers July 2, 2009 Submission of films *********************************************************** Onward! is a place for highly original ideas about how technological advances and new applications are going to shape computational fabrics of the future. Onward! is more radical, more visionary, and more open than other conferences to not so well proven but well argued ideas. We welcome different ways of thinking about, approaching, and reporting on programming languages and software engineering research. Onward! takes a broad and inclusive view of computation and seeks contributions from all fields represented at OOPSLA and other software conferences. Onward! particularly encourages contributions influenced by other disciplines such as art, philosophy, psychology, sociology, anthropology, biology, economics, communities, politics, ethics, or any other human endeavor. Anything to do with programming and software can be submitted. Anything! Onward! is innovative not only with regard to its topics and ideas but also to the contribution formats. This year, we seek high quality submissions in one of the following categories: *** RESEARCH PAPERS (Due June 26, 2009) *** While regular research papers tell what work has been done and validated in recent years, Onward! papers show what exciting work is being done right now. Onward! accepts papers that talk about innovative research work that is early in its life or is not in the mainstream. We request submissions of position papers that propose bold directions of research and advocate nontraditional methodologies. An Onward! paper does not need to contain a fully worked out theory or implemented system, but must be well-thought-out and compelling in its vision or uniqueness of thinking. Papers will be peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published in the OOPSLA 2009 Proceedings, and will appear in the ACM Digital Library. *** FILMS *** Years ago, sophisticated software systems had to be constructed by highly trained programmers who understood the ins and outs of software development. Today, with the advent of new mashup technologies and service architectures, these barriers have been lowered. The goal of this track is to explore new developments in how film and other narrative multimedia technologies can be used to enrich the software development process. Descriptions of accepted films will be published in the OOPSLA 2009 Companion, and will appear in the ACM Digital Library. *** ESSAYS (submission closed) *** *** WORKSHOPS (submission closed) *** *** HOW TO SUBMIT *** Electronic submission is required through the Onward! homepage. Text submissions must follow the standard ACM SIGPLAN format. Research papers should not exceed 8 pages. Submissions must not have been previously published, and must not be concurrently submitted for publication elsewhere (including journals and formal proceedings of conferences and workshops). Violation of this policy will result in desk-rejection of the submission. *** GENERAL CHAIR *** Bernd Bruegge, Technische Universitaet Muenchen, Germany *** PROGRAM COMMITTEE *** Yvonne Coady, University of Victoria, Canada (chair) Roger Dannenberg, Carnegie Mellon University, USA Dilma Da Silva, IBM TJ Watson Research Center, USA Maja Dhondt, IMEC, Belgium Bjorn Freeman-Benson, Eclipse Foundation, USA Harald Gall, University of Zurich, Switzerland Bruce Horn, Powerset, USA Gail Kaiser, Columbia University, USA Caitlin Kelleher, Washington University St. Louis, USA Michele Lanza, University of Lugano, Switzerland Rick McGeer, HP Labs, USA Linda Northrop, Carnegie Mellon University, USA Nuno Jardim Nunes, University of Madeira, Portugal Dirk Riehle, SAP Research, Germany Christa Schwanninger, Siemens, Germany *** FILM COMMITTEE *** Martin Purvis, University of Otago, New Zealand (chair) Roberto Bisiani, University of Milano - Bicocca, Italy Oliver Creighton, Siemens, Germany Ralph Guggenheim, Allegator Planet, USA Andrew Long, University of Otago, New Zealand A detailed version of this call for each submission category is available on http://onward-conference.org/calls/ An Onward! ad is available on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YcIjUSpwspk The AISWorld LISTSERV is a service of the Association for Information Systems (http://www.aisnet.org).

[Fwd: [isworld] CFP: NITIM PhD Network Doctoral Consortium ICT and Service Innovations]
by Gustaf Neumann 22 May '09

22 May '09

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CFP: NITIM PhD Network Doctoral Consortium ICT and Service Innovations Datum: Fri, 22 May 2009 06:46:39 -0400 Von: Virpi Kristiina Tuunainen <virpi.tuunainen(a)hse.fi> Antwort an: Virpi Kristiina Tuunainen <virpi.tuunainen(a)hse.fi> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> NITIM PhD Network Doctoral Consortium �ICT and Service Innovations� Helsinki, Finland, August 24-25, 2009 facilitated by CEMS - Community of European Management Schools (www.CEMS.org), Helsinki School of Economics and Aalto University, Service Factory Call for Submissions Overview: The doctoral consortium on �ICT and Service Innovations� aims to bring together PhD candidates and faculty, in order to facilitate focused and in-depth discussions. The consortium will encompass the following areas: - The relationship between ICT and service innovation; - Managing service innovation in networks and clusters; - ICT enabled or supported service innovation processes; - ICT and new modes of organising (e.g. CSCW, virtual/ distributed forms of organising); - Business networks and inter-organisational systems. www.NITIM.eu is the PhD network on Networks, Information Technology and Innovation Management. The consortium meets regularly at one of the participating universities and is meant to facilitate transdisciplinary debate at the intersection of disciplines like information systems, management, engineering, or sociology. It puts particular emphasis on theoretically informed empirical research. The Helsinki meeting will focus on ICT and Service Innovation. Service innovations are typically a combination of technology innovation, business model innovation, social-organizational innovation and demand innovation with the objective to improve existing service systems (incremental innovation) or to create new value propositions (offerings) or create new service systems (radical innovation). For those interested, the theme of innovation will be continued on August 26-28.2009 in the annual CKIR (Center for Knowledge and Innovation Research of HSE) Summer Conference 2009. The theme for this year�s event is �Leadership and Governance Innovation�, and the conference will bring together international thought leaders (e.g. Ikujiro Nonaka (Hitotsubashi University)) with the key stakeholders of the Finnish Economy (e.g. Jorma Ollila, (Shell, Nokia, European Roundtable)). For more information on the CKIR seminar, please see http://www.ckir.fi. Target group and eligibility: Submissions to the PhD consortium are invited from PhD candidates, whose research interests lie within the areas listed above. PhD candidates interested in participating should have developed (and ideally defended) a proposal for their research, detailing a problem statement, research question and methodology. They should, however, not be so close to completion of their thesis that they can no longer benefit from the input at the consortium (typically 6 months). With the submission of the proposal a supporting letter from a faculty member is expected (either the Supervisor or the Director of the PhD programme). Organisation: The core of the programme will be centred on the critical and constructive discussion of the PhD candidates� research proposals. In particular, research design (i.e. the linkage between an identified problem area, a research question and the appropriate methodology) will be discussed. In order to facilitate in-depth discussions of candidates� research, and to provide some additional guidance, the overall number of participants will be limited to 25. The consortium is also meant to provide additional input, such as: - talks by invited speakers about ongoing research and/or methodological issues (e.g. different research traditions in innovation, IS and neighbouring disciplines); - discussions about the (changing) landscape of research and higher education in Europe (at the EU level and at national levels); - open fora about practical considerations (publishing, job market, etc.) In addition to providing guidance and feedback to the PhD candidates outside the student-supervisor relationship, attendees will have an opportunity for benchmarking their progress (where do I stand vis-à-vis my peers?) and building networks with peers. Repeated participation for establishing long standing networks is encouraged. PhD candidates (and faculty) are expected to stay for the entire consortium in order to benefit from the discussions and interventions as they unfold over the duration of the event. The consortium typically will count for 3 ECTS. Location and costs: The consortium will be held in Helsinki, Finland, which is accessible by air from most major European cities. The sessions will be organized at the Helsinki School of Economics, which is located in the central Helsinki (street address: Runeberginkatu 22-24, 00100 Helsinki). It is expected the PhD candidates will pay their own travel and accommodation and a registration fee of 100 Euro. The registration fee includes lunches on Monday and Tuesday, coffee breaks and dinner on Sunday/Monday (TBA). Participants of the NITIM Doctoral Consortium do not need to pay the participation fee (950�) for the CKIR Summer Conference. Nearby accommodation can be booked, for example, at the Helka Hotel (www.helka.fi), Hostel Academica (http://www.hostelacademica.fi/i) or Omenahotelli (www.omenahotels.com ). Submission : Submissions by PhD candidates are sought, which should include: - A research proposal (4000-5000 words): motivation, research question, relevant literature, research design/ methodology, expected outcomes; - A statement by the Supervisor or PhD programme Director about the status of the PhD candidate, and a recommendation that he/she will benefit from the consortium. The deadline for submissions is June 15th, 2009. Please send the submission to: Virpi.Tuunainen(a)hse.fi Consortium committee: Co-chairs: Virpi Kristiina Tuunainen, Helsinki School of Economics, Finland Stefan Klein, University of Muenster, Germany Faculty (some to be confirmed / added:) Paola Bielli, Bocconi University, Milan, Italy Robert Johnston, University College Dublin Bernhard R.

This new edition resumes the topics proposed in the previous edition of the workshop and it aims at renewing the success in terms of quality of submitted paper and discussion during the event. It is now more focussed on knowledge engineering issues underlying collaborative works and it aims at a broader range of applications from business intelligence to eLearning. In today�s challenging global market, companies have to innovate in order to improve competitiveness and business performance. They must bring innovative products to market more effectively and more quickly to maximize customer interest and sales. The pressures to reduce time, improve product quality, and lower costs have not gone away; they are being reaffirmed and folded into programs that focus on delivering the �right� product. Companies must continue to enter new markets with innovative products. This requires leveraging and reusing the product-related intellectual capital created by partners working together. Business innovation must occur in several dimensions: project organization, product definition, production engineering, ergonomics design, environmental impacts, etc. Several approaches exist for supporting companies in this innovation challenge. They are mainly based upon Knowledge Management techniques. Agents and Multi-Agent Systems may offer solutions to model (multiple) organisations involved in collaborative design activities. Agents may also support the capitalization process and constitute knowledge bases transparently for the users. This workshop will focus on the use of agents and multi-agent systems for modelling and supporting collaborative activities in all working contexts, such as, design activities, eLearning, etc. 2 - Topics A non-exhaustive list of topics for the workshop includes the following: � Methods and Models: 1. Agent based CSCW 2. Agent oriented analysis and design methods for CSCW systems 3. Agent based models of collaborative activities 4. Ontologies and theories about collaborative activities 5. Agent based capitalization 6. Agent based reuse of knowledge 7. Collaborative design of products and software 8. Formal models of agent-based CSCW 9. Organizational applications of agent use in CSCW � Implementation of CSCW systems: 1. Agent-oriented architecture for multi-enterprise or multi-organization collaborations 2. Architectures and platforms for agent-based CSCW deployment 3. Human-computer interaction in CSCW 4. CAD and virtual reality design-helper agents 5. Practical application examples � Annotations 1. Agent based automatic annotations techniques 2. Semantic annotations 3. Reasoning techniques for annotations � eLearning 1. Agent based eLearning 2.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CFP: Special Issue on Service Oriented Applications and Integration for e-Commerce " Datum: Wed, 20 May 2009 19:15:56 -0400 Von: Narciso Cerpa <ncerpa(a)utalca.cl> Antwort an: Narciso Cerpa <ncerpa(a)utalca.cl> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> Call for Papers: Special Issue on "Service Oriented Applications and Integration for e-Commerce" Guest Editors: Yinsheng Li (Fudan University, China); Wei-Tek Tsai (Arizona State University, USA); Yueting Chai (Tsinghua University, China) Service-Oriented Computing (SOC) is a computing paradigm that exploits both web services and Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) as fundamental elements for developing software systems. This paradigm changes the way software systems are designed, architected, delivered and consumed. With the availability of open standards, to overcome cross-platform barriers, and facilities to support service construction, SOA and Web services are being adopted by industries to make business services perform more efficiently and effectively. They contribute to the shaping of the processes of business modeling, solution creation, service delivery, and software architecture design, development and deployment. However, the applications and methods of SOA have not been fully exploited. The Special issue on Service Oriented Applications and Integration for e-Commerce (SOAIEC) will be devoted to the integration and collaboration technologies and best practices on SOA. The mission is to bridge the gap between business and information technology using service-oriented paradigms, technologies and approaches. The topics will include: � Architectures and frameworks for SOA � Service or service-oriented system modeling � Service-oriented integration methods and technologies � Service-oriented collaboration models and techniques � Engineering platforms or tools for SOA � Delivery or management platforms or tools for SOA � Security, QoS, Trust with SOC or SOA � Best practices or case study for SOA � Techniques and tools for SAAS (Software As a Service). Submission: Authors are invited to submit original research contributions in the aforementioned areas. Manuscripts should conform to the journal format (see http://www.jtaer.com/). All submissions will be reviewed according to the journal peer-review policy. Accepted articles will be published in the special issue on Service Oriented Applications and Integration for e-Commerce of the Journal of Theoretical and Applied Electronic Commerce Research (to appear in December 2010). Please suggest title and abstract and submit a full manuscript with respect to the deadlines given below to: liys(a)fudan.edu.cn and/or wtsai(a)asu.edu, chaiyt(a)tsinghua.edu.cn.
