-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CFP: Onward! 2009 Datum: Tue, 9 Jun 2009 21:15:03 +0100 (WEST) Von: Joao Araujo <ja(a)di.fct.unl.pt> Antwort an: Joao Araujo <ja(a)di.fct.unl.pt> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> CC: Walid Maalej <maalejw(a)in.tum.de> ***************** Call For Contributions ***************** Onward! 09 The conference for new ideas, new paradigms, and reflections on everything to do with programming and software. 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).

The special issue is looking for theoretical, empirical, experimental and case studies research investigating the exploitation of Web 2.0 by tourism firms and organisations. Paper submission deadline is the 30th of June 2009. For more information please e-mail the editor of the special issue (Dr Marianna Sigala, m.sigala(a)aegean.gr) With my kind regards Marianna Sigala Journal of Enterprise Information Management http://info.emeraldinsight.com/products/journals/journals.htm?id=jeim Call for Papers Special Issue on Web 2.0 in travel and tourism: transforming and redefining business models and operations Guest Editor: Marianna Sigala, PhD, Department of Business Administration, University of the Aegean, Greece Manuscripts are solicited for a special issue of the international Journal of Enterprise Information Management �Web 2.0 in travel and tourism: transforming and redefining business models and operations�. Articles published in this special issue will present current, state-of-art research and critical thinking, designed to transfer to academics and professionals alike the necessary knowledge in the specific area of the use and management of Web 2.0 applications by travel and tourism firms. Web 2.0 is fundamentally changing the way travellers and tourists search, find, read and trust as well as (collaboratively) produce information about tourism suppliers and destinations. Moreover, web 2.0 applications (such as collaborative trip planning tools, three dimensions virtual spaces) empower travellers to engage in the design, production and promotion of tour packages, cultural events, hotel rooms and other travel-tourism products and services. Travellers 2.0 become and they expect to be active prosumers (producers and consumers) and marketers of personalised travel experiences. As a result, travel and tourism companies need to change and redefine their business models and operations in order to incorporate travellers and their social networks as well as to manage and exploit travellers' social intelligence and user-generated content in value creation activities. This special issue of the Journal of Enterprise Information Management aims to advance the evolution, use and management of web 2.0 applications and innovative e-business models in travel and tourism that exploit and incorporate travellers and their intelligence within business operations and customer value creation activities. The objectives of the special issue are to publish findings and exchange knowledge on the development of new research theories, methodologies and applications. Thus, theoretical, empirical, experimental, case studies and policy-oriented contributions are welcome, but all contributions should clearly address the practical implications of the research reported. Topics This special issue seeks leading-edge research investigating the use and management of web 2.0 applications and tools transforming and redefining the business models and operations of travel and tourism firms. Topics of papers may include (but they are not limited): � web 2.0 and traveller enabled and supported business processes and operations � web 2.0 and co-creation customer value practices: strategies, models, benefits and implementation � travellers' and social networks involvement in new product - service development including crowdsourcing and crowdcasting methodologies � web 2.0, social intelligence and knowledge management practices in travel and tourism � CRM 2.0 and Marketing 2.0: strategies and practices � management practices of travellers 2.0 and their social intelligence (user-generated content) � evaluation and measurement of the impact of Web 2.0 applications on business performance: metrics and methodologies � business risks of web 2.0 applications: strategies and management � web 2.0 and business process and network transformation and reengineering Guidelines for Authors All submissions must adhere to the format and style guidelines of the journal Journal of Enterprise Information Management.

If the features and characteristics are studied and applied in computing, it will result in significant advances in computing paradigms. There is little research on the application of sensory systems in computing paradigms. The underlying purpose of the workshop is to induce researchers to work and submit research on the experimental, architectural and theoretical focus on the application of sensory systems. Sensory system principles and concept needs to be captured and applied in the design of novel computing systems. The proposed workshop will lead to introduce the state-of-the art research in sensory systems from different perspectives; and to design the sensory systems to optimize the existing and to develop innovative computing and communications paradigms. Topics and areas: The proposed workshop will reflect the following areas: * Biological intelligence in computing * Sensory system models * Multimodal signal integration * Neuro-inspired sensors * Swarm intelligence Impact of sensory systems on - * Wireless sensor networks * network modeling and Neuro-computing * Grid computing * Ant colony optimization * Pervasive computing * Cellular computing * Agent computing * Distributed computing, parallel computing Paper The authors need to send the research papers which address innovative models, architecture, themes and experimentation. All papers will be reviewed by at least two reviewers as a blind reviewing. All accepted papers in workshop will in ICDIM 2009 will be indexed in dblp.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CFP: Workshop on Agent Supported Collaborative Work for Knowledge Management Datum: Mon, 8 Jun 2009 16:09:18 -0400 Von: Saba Saras <bamasaba(a)gmail.com> Antwort an: Saba Saras <bamasaba(a)gmail.com> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> Second International Workshop on Agent Supported Collaborative Work for Knowledge Management (ASCWKM 2009) In conjunction with the Fourth IEEE International Conference on Digital Information Management ICDIM 2009 November, 2009, Michigan, USA http://www.icdim.org/default.php Workshop organizers Contact Point: Vincent Hilaire vincent.hilaire(a)utbm.fr Workshop Chairs: � Massimo Cossentino, ICAR-CNR (Italy) and UTBM (France) � David Faure Thales Group (France) � Vincent Hilaire, UTBM (France) � Sebastian Rodriguez FRT-UTN (Argentine) 1 - Description Building on top a first successful edition in 2007, a second edition of the ACW workshop is now being proposed. 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. Agent Knowledge capitalization and reuse in an eLearning context � Industrial cases 3 - Program Committee: Emmanuel Adam, LAMIH, France Frédéric Armetta, LEIS, France Carole Bernon, IRIT, France Anarosa Brandão, ITL, Brasil Valerie Camps, IRIT, France Ricardo Choren, IME, Brasil Ernesto Damiani, DTI, Italy Jacques Ferber, LIRMM, France Ruben Fuentes, SIP, Spain Jorge Gomes-Sanz SIP, Spain Zahia Guessoum, LIP6, France Miniar Hemaissia-Jeannin, Thales, France Abderraffiâa Koukam, SeT, France Gaëlle Lortal, Thales, France Vito Morreale, Engineering Ingegneria Informatica, Italy Andrea Omicini, DEIS, Italy Luca Sabatucci, IRST - FBK, Italy Valeria Seidita, DII-University of Palermo, Italy Ludger Van Elst, KMRG, Germany 4 - Submission Submissions must be made through the submission website: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ascwkm09 You are invited to submit full length papers, not exceeding 4-6 pages (3000-4000 words) in length, in two-column format including diagrams and references, following IEEE publication guidelines.
