Therefore, products and services are increasingly affected by aspects of governance, risk and compliance in information systems. The information systems’ point of view requires methods and procedures to achieve assurance in information systems. Being not compliant with legal requirements and internal or cross-organizational policies can cause highly negative impacts. Managing information systems needs to take into account these issues to achieve a sustainable use and adoption of information technology. IFIP 8.6 Conference 2011 aims at promoting scientific and practical excellence on aspects of transfer and diffusion of information technology and invites academics and practitioners to enhance the knowledge base. The conference will feature an exciting program that, in addition to the regular paper tracks, will also host a number of other activities and events, including keynotes, panels and a doctoral consortium. Topics of interest for regular sessions The conference focus will be on theories, tools and best practices of governance and sustainability in information systems, but also welcomes submissions to more general topics related to transfer and diffusion of information technology. Relevant topics comprising theoretical as well as practical contributions will include but are not limited to: - Identification of governance, risk and compliance factors for successful use of information systems. - Sustainability of processes and technologies to be incorporated in systems for customers and clients. - Conditions/Scenarios/Outcomes under which governance, risk and compliance techniques are applicable. - Case studies of governance and sustainability in information systems to provide instances to guide research, development, and practice. - Specifications and standards that facilitate governance and sustainability in information systems. - Methods to evaluate the sustainability and value of technology transfer programs and approaches, including time and effort estimators and metrics. - Organization design and process issues related to technology transfer and diffusion. Submissions We invite those interested in participating to submit one of the following: - Completed research papers (7000 words maximum) - Practitioner experience short papers (2500 words maximum) - Poster presentations (one page including text and graphics) - Panel proposals Papers will be submitted electronically, formatted according to the conference guidelines (see conference website for details).

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [WI] Call for Workshop Proposal -- WI-IAT 2011 Date: 31 Oct 2010 04:41:41 +0900 From: wic-office(a)wi-consortium.org To: wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de Call for Workshop Proposal The 2011 IEEE / WIC / ACM International Conferences on Web Intelligence and Intelligent Agent Technology 22 ? 27 August 2011, Campus Scientifique de la Doua, Lyon, France http://wi-iat-2011.org The Program Committees of the 2011 IEEE/WIC/ACM International Joint Conference on Web Intelligence and Intelligent Agent Technology (WI-IAT?11) invite proposals for Workshops. The Workshops will be held within the Conference, August, 22, 2011 at Lyon, France. The main goal of the WI-IAT?11 workshops is to stimulate and facilitate active exchange, interaction and comparison of approaches, methods and ideas related to specific topics, both theoretical and applied, in the general areas related to Web Intelligence and Intelligent Agent Technology. The workshops will provide an informal setting where participants will have the opportunity to discuss specific technical topics in an atmosphere that fosters the active exchange of ideas. The workshop organizers will be responsible for advertising the workshop, forming the program committees, reviewing and selecting the papers, and guaranteeing a high quality worthy of the prestige and range of the Conference. All papers accepted for workshops will be included in the Workshop Proceedings published by IEEE Computer Society Press and will be available at the workshops. The workshop organizers will also have the discretion of editing selected papers (after their expansion and revision) into books or special journal issues. Workshops may be full-day or half-day. A full-day workshop should select 10-14 regular papers, while a half-day workshop should select 5-7 regular papers, from a large number of submissions. Submissions accepted as workshop papers will be allocated 4 pages in the proceedings. The workshop organizers should ensure the presence of authors of accepted papers at the workshops. Optionally, the workshop may be started or concluded by a panel focusing on interesting aspects, controversial issues, or unsolved problems to stimulate lively, thoughtful, and thought-provoking debate; we expect the workshop organizers to actively engage the audience and help them gain a deeper understanding of the issues. The goal of a panel is to debate and thus panels should always reflect more than one point of view.

Fwd: [WI] Call for papers 6th Conference Professional Knowledge Management - Workshop: POP11 - Putting ontologies into practise

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] Call for papers 6th Conference Professional Knowledge Management - Workshop: POP11 - Putting ontologies into practise Datum: Fri, 29 Oct 2010 15:25:10 +0200 Von: Telesko Rainer <rainer.telesko(a)fhnw.ch> An: WI(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de <WI(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de> ***** DEADLINE EXTENSION: NEW DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION IS NOV 7th 2010 ***** Call for papers 6th Conference Professional Knowledge Management From Knowledge to Action Workshop: POP11 - Putting ontologies into practise 21st of February to 23rd of February 2011, Innsbruck _http://web.fhnw.ch/plattformen/pop11/_ The topic The use of ontologies has progressed from a research topic to a model for knowledge representation in practical applications over the last 5 to 10 years. While the use of ontologies facilitates a wide range of advanced, content-oriented applications in knowledge management, a main bottleneck for implementing such applications is to obtain, share and maintain the required ontologies. Although lots of ontologies are available and although there has been a lot of work on ontology learning, ontology matching and integration, it still requires a great deal of time and effort to create and adapt them - and continuously update them - for any reallife application. These issues currently seem to be the main obstacles for a further spread of this technology. Moreover, many applications need quite focused ontologies for a specific context which simply do not exist and have to be created first. A variety of quite different approaches may help to provide ontologies needed for advanced knowledge management applications. Besides ontology learning, population and integration supporting the collaborative engineering of ontologies by a community of domain experts is an important issue because it allows to better balance the overall effort of creating and maintaining ontologies over many people and thus raises the acceptance and ensures the quality of the generated ontologies. Moreover, while a growing number of ontologies are available on the web and while several ontology repositories have emerged recently, finding a suitable ontology and adapting it to ones needs is still time consuming. In particular, as ontologies are always developed with a specific point of view on a domain of discourse it can be very difficult to tweak a given ontology to a slightly different viewpoint, usually leading to the development of a completely new ontology. Instead, it would be preferable to integrate different perspectives on the same domain of discourse in one ontology rather than creating a complete new ontology each time a (slightly) different view is needed. In this workshop we will discuss all kinds of approaches that aim at facilitating the (semi-) automatic and manual creation, reuse, adaption and maintenance of ontologies for real-life applications, i.e. support the management aspects of the ontology life cycle. Topics of Interest Submitted papers should present theoretical approaches or practical case studies addressing one or more of the following or related topics: .Ontology learning .Ontology population .Ontology matching and merging .Ontology engineering and evolution .Ontology lifecycle management .Modularization and versioning of ontologies .Collaborative ontology modelling .Finding, reusing and adapting ontologies .Practical aspects of managing and maintaining ontologies in organisations .Evaluation and quality assurance of ontologies .Combining ontology-based approaches with social tagging .Integrating ontologies with associative networks (aka lightweight ontologies) Addressed Audience The targeted audience includes researchers and practitioners in the field of ontology engineering and use. Besides paper presentations, this workshop will offer open spaces for targeted discussions.

We hope that many authors would benefit this chance for them to publish their papers in these journals after the workshop. Detailed CFP information for ICoM-UDSS is as follows. *Call For Papers *1st International Workshop on Intelligent Context Modeling and Ubiquitous Decision Support System (ICoM-UDSS 2011) Affiliated by the 3rd ACIIDS 2011 (http://ke.yu.ac.kr/aciids2011/) The 3rd Asian Conference on Intelligent Information and Database Systems, April 20 -22, 2011 (Daegu, South Korea) *Objectives * The International Workshop on Intelligent Context Modeling and Ubiquitous Decision Support System 2011 (ICoM-UDSS 2011) will present the latest high-quality results in the growing field of context modeling and ubiquitous decision support system. Due to the dazzling development of ubiquitous computing technologies, it is inevitable for users to rely on the ubiquitous decision support system to get more reliable and timely information such as location-based information, context aware information, recommendation, context-prediction information, et al. Users used to be depending on a wide variety of decision support systems while they are moving constantly- i.e., email systems, social networks, virtual worlds, web-based systems, and virtual community, etc. In this situation, users become very sensitive to timeliness and recency of information. Besides, they are keenly interested in the quality of information recommended by ubiquitous decision support system (UDSS) about locations they are going to visit, activities they are going to do, and products/services they are going to shop. This international workshop is dedicated to discussing all the relevant topics related to the issues mentioned above. *Topics * We construe the intelligent context modeling and ubiquitous decision support systems broadly, including applications ranging from e-commerce to social networking, platforms from web to mobile and beyond, and a wide variety of technologies ranging from data mining, business intelligence, context modeling to context prediction, multi-agent systems. Therefore, topics of interest include (but are not limited to): Context-aware systems Context-prediction modeling Context modeling in online game Location-based commerce Mobile commerce UDSS for context prediction Context-aware UDSS Case studies of UDSS design and implementations Computational ubiquitous advertising Virtual worlds and UDSS Conversational recommender systems Evaluation of UDSS Group recommenders Impact of intelligent context modeling and UDSS in practice Innovative applications of context-modeling and UDSS Novel paradigms of UDSS-based recommender systems Personalization of UDSS Machine learning algorithms for context-modeling Social networks approach to context prediction UDSS interfaces Scalability issues Security, privacy, and robustness of UDSS Semantic web technologies for context prediction Theoretical aspects of UDSS User modeling and UDSS Multi-agent simulations Bayesian networks applications in context-aware UDSS Neural networks applications in context prediction Fuzzy logic-driven inferences for UDSS Collaborative Filtering Theoretical aspects of UDSS Miscellaneous *Review Process * Each paper submitted to ICoM-UDSS will be reviewed in a double-blind review process.

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CfP Special Issue on 'Organizational Design and Engineering Challenges for Inter-Organizational Collaboration and Competition' Date: Wed, 27 Oct 2010 22:11:09 +0200 From: Claudia Loebbecke <claudia.loebbecke(a)uni-koeln.de> To: <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> CfP -- Special Issue International Journal of Organisational Design and Engineering (IJODE) Deadline: March 15, 2011 Special Issue on 'Organizational Design and Engineering Challenges for Inter-Organizational Collaboration and Competition' Globalization, market deregulation, shorter product life cycles, the pressure to constantly innovate, and the need to follow the customer require businesses to decentralize, distribute work, collaborate with stakeholders and establish new organizational structures. Firms have to manage numerous external collaborative relationships with corporate partners such as other companies, customers, or even politics. Furthermore, traditional internal structures are being broken up in order to give way to more flexible and responsive work setups. Innovative technologies provide new opportunities and tools for companies to manage these challenges. Enterprise systems as well as social software is used to collaboratively produced knowledge and content. It is time for organizations to implement these novel tools and philosophies to create new collaboration models, realize cooperative concepts such as open innovation and customer integration approaches, and to manage, govern, and actively maintain inter- and intra-organizational collaboration. The new collaboration technologies can be used - when properly applied - to help businesses solve pressing problems, capture dispersed and fast-changing knowledge, highlight and leverage expertise, generate and refine ideas. We are pleased to invite scholars from any methodological background to contribute papers that advance our knowledge of the diffusion, appropriation, usage, impact, and role of collaboration technologies, in the context usage of social software in intra- and inter-organizational networks. We welcome theoretical, conceptual, design-oriented and especially empirical contributions using both qualitative and quantitative research methods. Research efforts might focus on different organization relations such as business to business, business to customer or business to other stakeholder. Papers in this focus theme section might address, but are not limited to one or more of the following areas: Theory Foundation - Innovative collaborative methods and science - Innovative concepts, models and frameworks for intra- and inter-organizational collaborations technologies and management concepts - Shared knowledge representation, discovery and management with respect to innovative collaborations technologies and management concepts - Social networks, collective intelligence, security, trust Technical infrastructures - Context-aware infrastructures - Situation-aware infrastructures - Distributed systems and technologies - Next generation technologies, web 2.0, social software - P2P, Grid and cloud computing - Web services - Mobile and Wireless Collaboration Systems Environments, tools and applications - Enterprise systems - Collaborative working environments - Collaborative management tools - Social Software, web 2.0, virtual worlds - CSCW, groupware and decision tools - Data management and sharing tools - Intra /inter collaborative tagging - Knowledge management tools - Massively distributed collaboration - Designing Collaborative& Virtual Organizations Benefits realization and social implications - Collaborative strategies and policies - Scientific and business models - Accessibility and user interfaces - Trust, compliance, policies and QoS - Cross organizational studies - Human and market dynamics - Privacy and identity management - Support for vulnerable communities - User Acceptance& Use - Community Engineering, Community Governance All papers will be peer reviewed and should conform to IJODE publication standards. Methodological and theoretical pluralism (empirical or theoretical work, qualitative research, design science, prototypes ...) is welcomed by the journal. Full papers are invited to be submitted by March 15, 2011. All papers must be original, not published or under review elsewhere. If you would like to discuss any aspect of the special issue, please contact the guest editors: Claudia Loebbecke, claudia.loebbecke<at>uni-koeln.de (Department of Media and Technology Management, University of Cologne, Germany) Christoph Lattemann, c.lattemann<at>jacobs-university.de, Jacobs University Bremen, Germany) _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org
