------------
Overview
------------
For the past twenty-four years, the ACM Symposium on Applied Computing
(SAC) has been a primary gathering forum for applied computer
scientists, computer engineers, software engineers, and application
developers from around the world.
The Third Edition of the Requirements Engineering Track (RE-Track'10)
is part of the SAC 2010, sponsored by the ACM Special Interest Group
on Applied Computing (SIGAPP), and is hosted by University of Applied
Sciences, Western Switzerland (HES-SO) and Ecole Polytechnique
Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland. Further details may be found
at: http://www.acm.org/conferences/sac/sac2010/.
Requirement Engineering is defined as the branch of Software
Engineering concerned with the real-world goals for, functions of, and
constraints on software systems; it is also concerned with the
relationship of these factors to precise specifications of software
behaviour and to their evolution over time and across software
families. Requirements engineering is increasingly
recognized as a critically important activity in any systems
engineering process.
The objective of this track is to explore different advances in
requirement engineering in a general way, its relation with different
areas, reducing the gap between software engineering solutions and the
way one specific domain of knowledge was seen up to given point.
-------

Research Article:
----------------------
�The Design for Social Presence in Online Communities: A Multidimensional
Approach�
By Kathy Ning Shen and Mohamed Khalifa
The design of online communities that promotes user participation is
critical to the community�s success in fostering new ideas and
innovations, building knowledge competencies, and strengthening customer
relations. Social presence has been considered as a major design principle
and important concept in explaining the relationship between online
community artifacts and online user behavior. While most prior IS research
adopts a unidimensional conceptualization of social presence and focuses
on its effects on user attitude and/or behavior, this research employs a
multidimensional conceptualization and demonstrates its suitability for
understanding the effects of online community artifacts on social
presence. More specifically, this research examines the effects of three
categories of design artifacts (artifacts supporting self-presentation,
deep profiling, and virtual co-presence) on three social presence
dimensions (awareness, affective social presence and cognitive social
presence). To validate the research model, a survey was conducted with
four online communities. Different social presence dimensions were found
to carry different weights in forming the overall sense of social presence
and the effects of perceived usage of various online community artifacts
varied for different social presence dimensions.
==================

Over the last two decades, many organizations and individuals have
relied on electronic collaboration between distributed teams of
humans, computer applications, and/or autonomous robots to achieve
higher productivity and produce joint products that would have been
impossible to develop without the contributions of multiple
collaborators. Technology has evolved from standalone tools, to open
systems supporting collaboration in multi-organizational settings, and
from general purpose tools to specialized collaboration grids. Future
collaboration solutions that fully realize the promises of electronic
collaboration require advancements in networking, technology and

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEADLINE EXTENDED TO JULY 3rd, 2009
2009 ACM Workshop on Secure Web Services (SWS)
http://sesar.dti.unimi.it/SWS09/
November 13, 2009 Hyatt Regency, Chicago, USA.
Held in conjunction with the
16th ACM Conference on Computer and Communications Security (CCS 2009)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Call for Papers
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Basic security protocols for Web Services, such as XML Security, the WS-*
series of proposals, SAML, and XACML are the basic set of building blocks
enabling Web Services and the nodes of GRID architectures to interoperate
securely. While these building blocks are now firmly in place, a number of
challenges are still to be met for Web services and GRID nodes to be fully
secured and trusted, providing for secure communications between
cross-platform and cross-language Web services. Also, the current trend
toward representing Web services orchestration and choreography via
advanced business process metadata is fostering a further evolution of
current security models and languages, whose key issues include setting
and managing security policies, inter-organizational (trusted partner)
security issues and the implementation of high level business policies in
a Web services environment.
The SWS workshop explores these challenges, ranging from the advancement
and best practices of building block technologies such as XML and Web
services security protocols to higher level issues such as advanced
metadata, general security policies, trust establishment, risk management,
and service assurance.
The workshop provides a forum for presenting research results, practical
experiences, and innovative ideas in web services security.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
* Web services and GRID computing security
* Authentication and authorization
* Frameworks for managing, establishing and assessing inter-organizational
trust relationships
* Web services exploitation of Trusted Computing
* Semantics-aware Web service security and Semantic Web Secure
orchestration of Web services
* Privacy and digital identities support
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Important Dates
* Paper submissions due: June 12th, 2009. EXTENDED TO JULY 3rd, 2009
* Acceptance notifications: August 16th, 2009.
* Camera-ready papers due: August 25th, 2009.
Submitted papers must not substantially overlap papers that have been
published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a
conference with proceedings.
Submissions must be at most ten pages in double-column ACM format (note:
pages must be numbered), excluding the bibliography and well-marked
appendices and at most 12 pages overall. Committee members are not
required to read appendices, so the paper should be intelligible without
them.
All submissions must be anonymized (an author's name should only occur in
references to that author's related work, which should be referenced in
the third person and not overtly distinguishable from the referenced work
of others). Submissions should be made electronically in PDF or portable
Postscript format using the SWS09 Submission System at

Special Issue on Trust and Trust Management
<http://www.jtaer.com/documentos/Call_For_Papers_Trust_Final_2_.pdf>
Guest Editors: Audun Jøsang (University of Oslo) Glenn Bewsell (University
of Wollongong)
Trust is a fundamental consideration for the growth and stability of
markets and communities because trust guides decisions about interactions
between humans and organizations. New forms of markets and communities are
created online, but the very nature of this online environment makes trust
management challenging. It is for example common to request services from
a
website we have never heard of before, and from which we might never
request a service again in the future. Combined with perceptions of
minimal or non-existent law enforcement, participants in online markets
and communities are often vulnerable to many forms of fraud and deception.
Reliable perceptions of trust lead to successful in teractions and quality
online markets, whereas misplaced trust and misplaced distrust are
damaging
to online interactions and e-commerce. To improve the reliability of trust
perceptions and decision making, there is a need to better understand the
dynamics of trust in relation to the technological, behavioral, legal and
cultural aspects of e-commerce.
This special issue welcomes articles with research contributions related
to
online trust in e-commerce, and to trust management in general. This is a
broad field that e.g. covers: theoretical and practical aspects of trust
management; antecedents to trust; technologies that impact trust; and the
use of policy, process and technology to manage trust. Specific topics of
interest include but are not limited to:
* Semantics, interpretations and ontologies of trust
* Metrics for trust and reputation
* Trust and reputation systems; protocols and computational models
* Robustness of tr ust and reputation systems
* Impacts of technology on trust
* Costs and trade-offs for establishing and sustaining trust
* Identity, credentials and access management
* Authorization models and policies
* Security and trust
* Risk management and trust
* Decision making and trust
* Case studies for online trust
* Recommender systems and trust
* Community perspectives of online trust
* eGovernment and trust
* Novel perspectives on trust in e-commerce
* Business models and trust
* Trust based marketing
* Trust destruction, distrust and trust restoration
Submission:
Authors are invited to submit original research contributions in the
aforementioned areas. Manuscripts should conform to the journal format
