-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CFC: Digital Product Management, Technology and Practice Datum: Mon, 22 Jun 2009 13:32:32 -0400 Von: Troy Strader <tjstrader(a)drake.edu> Antwort an: Troy Strader <tjstrader(a)drake.edu> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> CALL FOR CHAPTER PROPOSALS Proposal Submission Deadline: July 15, 2009 Full Chapter Submission Deadline: September 30, 2009 Digital Product Management, Technology and Practice: Interdisciplinary Perspectives A book edited by Dr. Troy J. Strader Drake University, USA To be published by IGI Global: http://www.igi-global.com/requests/details.asp?ID=631 This publication is part of the Advances in E-Business Research (AEBR) Book Series found at http://www.igi-pub.com/bookseries/details.asp?id=9 Introduction Products that can be stored, produced, and disseminated in a digital form can be referred to as digital products. Digital products involve some combination of text, images, audio, video, and computer programs. They have unique advantages such as very low marginal costs for production, storage, and distribution, but also involve the disadvantage of increased opportunities for product piracy. Industries most associated with these products include newspapers, magazines, electronic books, music, movies, games, radio, and software developers. Excluded from this definition are digital services such as financial services, travel services, and career services. Increasing use of computer technologies and the Internet has created opportunities for developing and selling digital products through channels such as the Internet and the growth in these areas will continue for some time. This subject area is unique because it involves the convergence of digital technology with traditional industry practices that ultimately impacts consumers, businesses, and society. Objective of the Book This book�s mission is to present the current understanding of digital products from a wide range of technical, business, and social science perspectives. This book will focus on the unique characteristics of these products when compared with traditional physical products such as food, clothing, durable goods, and so forth. Management of traditional products has been studied for more than a century, but digital products are still a relatively new phenomenon. One objective is to provide summaries of existing research and presentation of new empirical studies of digital product characteristics and their impact on consumers and organizational decision makers to provide a basis for further research studies. A complementary objective is to provide practitioners with a source of information regarding the full spectrum of digital product management issues. Target Audience One potential audience includes business and social science researchers and students interested in the unique characteristics of digital products and their impact on business processes and other forms of societal interaction. Studies may incorporate unique theoretical perspectives and methodologies. Another potential audience is managers who are currently, or potentially, managing digital products in today�s competitive business environment. Recommended topics include, but are not limited to, the following: Digital technology capabilities and limitations The economics of digital products Digital product development processes Marketing digital products Pricing digital products Digital product strategy Managing digital product supply chains Digital product piracy and ethical issues Digital product legal issues Digital product financing and accounting issues Digital product theoretical concepts and measures Digital product empirical studies Digital product management case studies Future digital product technologies Submission Procedure Researchers and practitioners are invited to submit on or before July 15, 2009, a 2-3 page chapter proposal clearly explaining the mission and concerns of his or her proposed chapter. Authors of accepted proposals will be notified by July 31, 2009 about the status of their proposals and sent chapter guidelines. Full chapters are expected to be submitted by September 30, 2009. All submitted chapters will be reviewed on a double-blind review basis. Contributors may also be requested to serve as reviewers for this project. Publisher This book is scheduled to be published by IGI Global (formerly Idea Group Inc.), publisher of the �Information Science Reference� (formerly Idea Group Reference), �Medical Information Science Reference� and �IGI Publishing� imprints.

[Fwd: [isworld] JITTA Vol 10 Iss 1 on AIS eLibrary]
by Gustaf Neumann 23 Jun '09

23 Jun '09

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] JITTA Vol 10 Iss 1 on AIS eLibrary Datum: Mon, 22 Jun 2009 19:00:39 -0400 Von: Marcus Rothenberger <marcus.rothenberger(a)unlv.edu> Antwort an: Marcus Rothenberger <marcus.rothenberger(a)unlv.edu> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> Volume 10 Issue 1 of the Journal of Information Technology Theory and Application (JITTA) has been published. The articles can be accessed at the AIS Electronic Library at http://jitta.aisnet.org Furthermore, I am pleased to announce that starting with volume 10, issue 1, JITTA is an official publication of the AIS. Since its inaugural issue in 1999, JITTA has been a unique journal for the Information Systems community in that it encourages submissions using all methodologies and research approaches that exist in our discipline; among others, we encourage the submission of positivist research, interpretive or exploratory studies, design science papers, research agenda articles, speculative research, research essays, normative papers, and case studies. During the last decade, JITTA has become the outlet of choice for many important contributions to our field. Being part of the select group of AIS journals will ensure that JITTA is going to continue its success story. The journal is listed in Cabell�s Directory and accessible through ABI/Inform. As an AIS Journal, all new issues will be published on the AIS Electronic Library and the back issues will soon be available on the AIS Electronic Library. Further, the journal has switched to a new review system that is closely integrated with the AIS Electronic library. Access to the journal�s issues and the submission and review system is on one integrated web site hosted by the AIS at http://jitta.aisnet.org. With the beginning of Volume 10, there also have been changes to the editorial board of the journal. The Editors-in-Chief Ken Peffers and Rajiv Kishore have completed their terms and have passed on the leadership of the journal to Marcus Rothenberger (University of Nevada Las Vegas), Mark Srite (University of Wisconsin � Milwaukee), and Tuure Tuunanen (The University of Auckland). Ken Peffers is the founding Editor-in-Chief of JITTA and has led the journal since its inception; Rajiv Kishore has joined JITTA as a Co-Editor-in-Chief in 2005. As the new Editors-in-Chief, we would like to thank Ken and Rajiv for their dedicated work and for making JITTA the well regarded journal that it is today. We are happy that Ken and Rajiv will continue serving the journal with their advice and experience as Emeritus Editors-in-Chief. The current issue includes three papers that discuss and investigate critical applications of information systems. The research of the first two papers in this issue was motivated by recent incidents that illustrated the need for an effective emergency response, such as Hurricane Katrina, the Virginia Tech shooting, and the SARS outbreak in Asia. Both papers contribute to different aspects of the design of emergency response systems. Yang, Prasanna, and King (2009) discuss design requirements for emergency first responders. They investigate how an array of specific technologies may aid in the retrieval of and access to on-site information in case of emergencies. The paper focuses on requirements specifications for fire emergency responses. A prototype system for emergency first responders is used to discuss and illustrate the requirements presented in the paper. The study provides detailed design insights into an emergency response system that utilizes RFID and wireless sensor networks for information retrieval and wireless communication technologies for on-site information sharing. Thomas, Andoh-Baidoo, Redmond, and Yoon (2009) investigate how to facilitate Emergency Response Notifications with VoiceXML. Their paper presents a Geographic Information System (GIS)-based emergency response management architecture that uses a web-based voice translation technology. An implementation of the described architecture is being discussed and the benefits of the proposed architecture are evaluated in the context of a toxic chemical agent leak reported to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The third paper by Djamasbi, Fruhling, and Loiacono (2009) investigates a different kind of critical application; the study examines the acceptance of telemedicine systems. Based on the Technology Acceptance Model (Davis 1989), the paper introduces affect as a measure of a user�s affective state. The authors conduct a laboratory experiment showing that user attitude is important for the acceptance behavior and supporting affect as an antecedent of attitude in the healthcare domain.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] CFP: IEEE Internet Computing Special Issue on Social Computing in Blogosphere Datum: Sun, 21 Jun 2009 13:28:49 -0700 Von: Huan Liu <huanliu(a)asu.edu> Organisation: "ICCSA" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> Referenzen: <fda889e90906180720u5c26687ft6ac26a184b51a4e1(a)mail.gmail.com> CALL FOR PAPERS =============== IEEE Internet Computing Special Issue on "Social Computing in Blogosphere" ========================================================================== http://www.public.asu.edu/~huanliu/icscb2010 Guest editors: Huan Liu, Philip S. Yu, Nitin Agarwal, and Torsten Suel (to appear in April-March 2010) The widespread phenomenon of blogging demonstrates the power of citizen journalism, anytime information sharing to allow bloggers to exchange personal experiences, express like and dislikes, voice opinions, offer suggestions, and form groups with genuine social activities. Blogs also act as the conduits of information, propagating the information at an unprecedented pace. This creates a humongous ever changing archive of open source intelligence and presents a great opportunity for various fresh research activities including influence, trust and reputation, privacy, search, spam, and group interaction. A prominent challenge lies in modeling and mining this vast pool of data to extract, represent and exploit meaningful knowledge and to leverage structures and dynamics of emerging social networks residing in the blogosphere. Social computing that combines data mining with social network analysis is a promising direction, and offers unique opportunities for developing novel algorithms and tools ranging from text and content mining to link mining. Another challenge in social computing research deals with the data collection and objective evaluation. The unique nature of the blogosphere makes it imperative to audaciously explore and actively collaborate on novel research and innovative development for academics, researchers, and industrial practitioners of disparate disciplines. This issue invites research submissions regarding blogosphere with interesting ideas and original approaches. This special issue strives to include high quality work, bring together academics, researchers, and practitioners to help disseminate, stimulate, and further research in both depth and breadth that promotes social computing in blogosphere. Areas of Interests ================== The issue aims to bring together researchers from different disciplines including computer science, economics, psychology, statistics, sociology, multimedia and semantic web technologies and foster discus-sions about ongoing research in the following (but not limited to) areas pertaining to Social Computing in Blogosphere: Computational models for Blogosphere Influence, trust, and privacy Adversarial blogging and counter measures Link analysis and network structure discovery Community detection and evolution Blog search and retrieval Group interaction, collaboration, and recommendation Knowledge discovery (collective wisdom, trend analysis, and topic detection) Social aspects of Blogosphere Important Dates =============== Abstract Submission (Email to: icscb2010(a)gmail.com): July 1, 2009 Submission deadline: July 15, 2009 Preliminary notification of acceptance: November 16, 2009 Camera-ready manuscript due: December 14, 2009 Expected publication: March-April 2010 Issue Submission Guidelines ===================== Please send a brief description of the article you plan to submit by July 1, 2009 to the following email address: icscb2010(a)gmail.com (subject line: Social Computing in Blogosphere Special Issue), then upload your submission by July 15, 2009 to the Manuscript Central at https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/cs-ieee.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] CfP "Collaborative Infrastructuring" workshop at ECSCW 2009 Datum: Fri, 19 Jun 2009 19:42:03 +0200 Von: Volkmar Pipek <volkmar.pipek(a)uni-siegen.de> An: Mailingliste Wirtschaftsinformatik GI-FB 5 <wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de>, Mailingliste GI-FG CSCW <fgcscw(a)gi-ev.de> Call for Position Papers for the "Collaborative Infrastructuring" workshop organized at ECSCW'09 conference (http://www.ecscw09.org/) Vienna, September 7, 2009 Sumission deadline: July 3, 2009 (extended) Collaborative Infrastructuring – Conceptualizing Emergence and Design of Information Infrastructures = = = = = = = ======================================================================== Description The workshop aims to help develop a richer understanding of issues related to the analysis and design of infrastructures: 1) the concepts, issues and theories that can inform our analysis both of the infrastructures themselves, and of the processes of collaborative infrastructure design 2) the concepts, issues, theories and methods that can improve the processes of doing collaborative infrastructure design. The workshop will examine issues around the collaborative design and use of information infrastructures through a collective sharing and analysis of case studies. We welcome as position papers analyses on empirical studies or descriptions of cases that the authors are familiar with. The workshop approach will be a collaborative activity involving a ‘live metareview’ over participants’ case studies. That is, the group will consider in turn a number of issues emerging from the cases. For each issue we will discuss whether and how it manifests in the particular infrastructure settings that each participant is familiar with or has studied.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] cfp: SI on Bridging the Gap - Data Mining and Social Network Analysis, for integrating Semantic Web and Web 2.0 Datum: Fri, 19 Jun 2009 14:03:23 +0200 Von: Andreas Hotho <hotho(a)cs.uni-kassel.de> An: wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de, ak-kd-list(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de, kdml(a)cs.uni-kassel.de, fg-db(a)informatik.uni-rostock.de, fca-list(a)cs.uni-kassel.de ===================================================================== Call for Papers Special Issue of the Journal of Web Semantics ***** Special Issue on "Bridging the Gap" ***** Data Mining and Social Network Analysis for integrating Semantic Web and Web 2.0 /* http://www.kde.cs.uni-kassel.de/events/jws_special_issue_2010 */ Abstract submission: 21 September 2009 Submission deadline: 1 October 2009 Reviews due: 1 December 2009 Notification: 15 December 2009 Final version submitted: 15 January 2010 Publication: April 2010 ===================================================================== Focus of the Special Issue -------------------------- The last years have seen increasing collaboration of researchers from the Semantic Web, Web 2.0, social network analysis and machine learning communities. Applications that use these research results are achieving economic success. Data now become available that allow researchers to analyze the use, acceptance and evolution of their ideas. Highly popular user-centered applications such as Blogs, social tagging systems, and Wikis have come to be known as "Web 2.0". A major reason for their immediate success is the high ease of use of new Web 2.0 services. These sites do not only provide data but also generate an abundance of weakly structured metadata. A good example is tagging. Here, users add keywords from an uncontrolled vocabulary, called tags, to a resource. Such metadata are easy to produce, but lack any kind of formal grounding, as used in the Semantic Web. The Semantic Web can complement the bottom-up effort of the Web 2.0 community in a top-down manner. Its central point is a stronger knowledge representation based on some kind of ontology with a fixed vocabulary and typed relations. Such a structure is typically something users have in mind when they provide their information in Web 2.0 systems. However, for further use, this structure is hidden in the data and needs to be extracted. Techniques to analyze network structures or weak knowledge representations as can be found in the Web 2.0 have a long tradition in different other disciplines, like social network analysis, machine learning and data mining. These kinds of automatic mechanisms are necessary to extract the hidden information and to reveal the structure in a way that the end user can benefit from it. Using established methods to represent knowledge gained from unstructured data will also be beneficial for the Web 2.0 in that it provides Web 2.0 users with enhanced Semantic Web features to structure their data. For this special issue, we invite contributions which show how synergies between Semantic Web and Web 2.0 techniques can be successfully used. Since both communities work on network-like data structures, analysis methods from different fields of research could form a link between those communities. Techniques can be - but are not limited to - social network analysis, graph analysis, machine learning and data mining methods. Topics of interest ------------------ Topics of interest for this special issue include, but are not limited to: * ontology learning from Web 2.0 data * instance extraction from Web 2.0 systems * analysis of Blogs * discovering social structures and communities * predicting trends and user behaviour * analysis of dynamic networks * using content of the Web for modelling * discovering misuse and fraud * network analysis of social resource sharing systems * analysis of folksonomies and other Web 2.0 data structures * analysis of Web 2.0 applications and their data * deriving profiles from usage * personalized delivery of news and journals * Semantic Web personalization * Semantic Web technologies for recommender systems * ubiquitous data mining in Web (2.0) environment * applications In accordance with the focus of the journal, the relatedness of your submission to the Semantic Web will be an important evaluation criterion. Submission Details ------------------ Submissions should describe original contributions and should not have been published or submitted elsewhere. Submissions based on conference papers should be extended and include a reference to the corresponding proceedings. All submissions will be reviewed by at least two reviewers. Final decisions on accepted papers will be approved by an editor in chief. Manuscripts should be prepared for publication in accordance with instructions given in the "Guide for Authors": <http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/journaldescription.cws_home/671322/authori…> The submission and review process will be carried out using Elsevier's Web-based EES system, cf. <http://ees.elsevier.com/jws/default.asp> Guest Editors ------------- * Bettina Berendt, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Bettina.Berendt(a)cs.kuleuven.be * Andreas Hotho, University of Würzburg, hotho(a)informatik.uni-wuerzburg.de * Gerd Stumme, University of Kassel, stumme(a)cs.uni-kassel.de -- --------------------------------------------------------------------- Andreas Hotho Tel.: +49-(0)561-804-6252 Universitaet Kassel Fax.: +49-(0)561-804-6259 Wilhelmshoeher Allee 73 mail: hotho(a)cs.uni-kassel.de 34121 Kassel www: http://www.kde.cs.uni-kassel.de/hotho/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Mailing-Liste: WI(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de Administrator: WI-admin(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de Konfiguration: http://www.aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de/mailman/listinfo/wi -- Univ.Prof. Dr. Gustaf Neumann Institute of Information Systems and New Media WU Vienna Augasse 2-6, A-1090 Vienna, AUSTRIA

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] CfP Medien - Wissen - Bildung: Explorationen visualisierter und kollaborativer Wissensräume Datum: Fri, 19 Jun 2009 08:28:32 +0200 Von: Ronald MAIER <Ronald.Maier(a)uibk.ac.at> An: <wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de> Geschätzte Kolleginnen und Kollegen, gerne mache ich Sie auf folgenden CfP aufmerksam. Herzliche Grüße aus Innsbruck, Ronald Maier. Call for Papers Medien – Wissen – Bildung: Explorationen visualisierter und kollaborativer Wissensräume anlässlich der internationalen Tagung an der Leopold-Franzens-Universität Innsbruck (5./6. November 2009) Bei aller Vielfalt der verfügbaren Zeitdiagnosen und gesellschaftlichen Selbstbeschreibungen ist in den letzten Jahren zunehmend deutlich geworden, dass den Medien eine besondere Bedeutung zukommt. Sie wirken als Treiber und Katalysatoren in nahezu allen Lebensbereichen. Fragen des sozialen Wandels, der Wissensorganisation, der kulturellen Begegnung, der politischen Kommunikation oder der Gemeinschaftsbildung können ohne Berücksichtigung von Prozessen der Medialisierung nicht angemessen beschrieben werden. Sowohl auf Mikro- als auch auf Meso- und Makro-Ebenen lassen sich Phänomene der Verflechtung und Durchdringung ausmachen, die erst in Ansätzen untersucht worden sind. Neuerdings spielen hier die Schlagworte „Web 2.0“ und „Social Software“ sowohl in alltagsweltlichen als auch in wissenschaftlichen Diskursen eine besondere Rolle. Dabei werden die Chancen und Gefahren im Hinblick auf Wissensdynamiken und wissenspolitische Themen sehr unterschiedlich bewertet. Einerseits werden neue Formen der sozialen Verteilung von Wissen diagnostiziert und Potenziale der Befriedigung von Informationsbedürfnissen, und Bildungserfordernissen beschrieben. Andererseits wird vor der Trivialisierung des Wissens, fehlender visueller Kompetenz und der Verbreitung von Unbildung gewarnt. Der Fokus der Tagung ist auf Dynamiken und Transformationsprozesse ausgerichtet, die sich an den Schnittstellen medialer, sozialer und organisationaler Entwicklungen abspielen. Sie zielt auf inter- und transdisziplinäre Diskursfelder zwischen Medien- und Kommunikationstheorie, zwischen Wissens- und Bildungstheorie sowie zwischen (Wirtschafts-)Informatik, Ökonomie und Pädagogik. Entsprechend geht es weniger um Geräte, Apparturen oder Software-Produkte und deren Vermarktung per se, sondern um Aspekte der Wissensorganisation und Mediendynamik, der Transformation von Lern-, Wissens- und Bildungsprozessen sowie der Untersuchung von Gestaltungsformen sozio-kultureller Räume und von Kommunikationsprozessen in Medienumwelten. Im Rahmen dieser internationalen Tagung befassen wir uns aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven mit einer Auswahl von Themen im Zusammenhang mit * neueren Formen der Visualisierung und Virtualisierung von Wissen * Konzepten und Praxisbeispielen der kollaborativen Nutzung von digitalen Wissenswerkzeugen * Theorie und Praxis des Wissensmanagement und der Wissenspolitik * Gestaltung wissensintensiver Prozesse in Unternehmen und Organisationen * Konzeption von organisatorischen und technischen Infrastrukturen für Lern- und Wissensdienste * Komposition von Lern- und Wissensdiensten auf Basis von Tagging, RSS und Mashuptechnologien * Knowledge Governance – Definition eines Rahmens für Entscheidungen hinsichtlich des Einsatzes von Instrumenten der Wissensorganisation * mobilen Entwicklungen und Trends in der beruflichen und privaten Wissensorganisation * Alltagsästhetiken und der Anwendung von Wissenswerkzeugen in alltagsweltlichen Zusammenhängen * Mediendynamiken, Kontinuitäten und Umbrüchen und deren Relation zu sozio-kulturellen Dynamiken und Wissensformen * der Performanz kultureller Praktiken in formellen und informellen Lernkontexten sowie den Chancen neuer Aneignungs- und Vermittlungsformen in der Wissensarbeit * Chancen der Alphabetisierung des Blicks und dem Verhältnis von visueller Kompetenz und Medienkompetenz * Konzepten des Medienaktivismus und neuen Handlungspraxen Die Tagung ist diskursiv orientiert und wird überwiegend in Form von Referaten mit plenaren Diskussionen und Workshops durchgeführt. Tagungssprachen sind Englisch und Deutsch. Tagungsorganisation: A. Univ. Prof. Dr. Theo Hug und Univ. Prof. Dr. Ronald Maier Die internationale Tagung wird von den Innsbruck Media Studies (IMS) – Interdisziplinäre Medienforschung an der LFU und der Plattform Wissensmanagement veranstaltet. Eingereicht werden können Vorträge, Präsentationen, Posters (Bild- und Textplakate) Willkommen sind wissenschaftliche, technische und künstlerische Beiträge. * * * * *Termine* - bis 15.7.2009: Einreichung der Abstracts (max. eine Seite incl. kurzer CV) - 31.7.2009: Benachrichtigung der ReferentInnen - bis 15.

Since then Formal Concept Analysis has developed into a growing research eld in its own right with a thriving theoretical community and an increasing number of applications in information and knowledge processing including vizualisation, data mining and analysis, and knowledge management. The conference aims to unify theoretical and applied practitioners using Formal Concept Analysis drawing from the fields of Mathematics, Computer and Information Sciences, Software Engineering, as well as diverse application domains such as Linguistics or Life Sciences. Other aspects are welcome as well. Possible topics include: FCA theory Conceptual Knowledge Processing Concept Graphs Lattice Drawing Association Rules Algorithms FCA and Software Engineering Lattice Theory Data Analysis FCA and Data Mining FCA and Logic Philosophical Foundations *Submission Details* We call for submissions on theory and applications of Formal Concept Analysis. Papers of up to sixteen pages may be submitted in PDF or Postscript format. Manuscripts should be prepared in LaTeX, using Springer style. For each paper, an abstract must be submitted by October 2, 2009. Authors are requested to follow the formatting instructions for the Springer LNCS style (see http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html). All submissions will be refereed, and the conference proceedings will be published by Springer in the LNCS/LNAI series. *Important Dates:* Submission of abstract: October 2, 2009 Submission of full paper: October 8, 2009 Notification of acceptance: November 26, 2009 Camera ready due: December 18, 2009 Conference: March 15-18, 2010 *Conference Organization* *Conference Chair:* Rokia Missaoui, Université du Québec en Outaouais (UQO), Canada *Program Chairs:* Léonard Kwuida, Université du Québec en Outaouais (UQO), Canada Baris Sertkaya, Technische Universität Dresden, Germany *Local Arrangement Chair:* Ameur Boujenoui, University of Ottawa, Canada *Editorial Board:* Peter Eklund, University of Wollongong, Australia Sebastien Ferré, Université de Rennes 1, France Bernhard Ganter, Technische Universität Dresden, Germany Robert Godin, Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM), Canada Sergei Kuznetsov, Higher School of Economics, Moscow, Russia Raoul Medina, LIMOS, Université Clermont-Ferrand 2, France Rokia Missaoui, Université du Québec en Outaouais (UQO), Canada Sergei Obiedkov, Higher School of Economics, Moscow, Russia Uta Priss, Napier University, Edinburgh, United Kingdom Sebastian Rudolph, AIFB, University of Karlsruhe, Germany Stefan E.
