-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] Call for papers - The 34th Information Systems Research Seminar in Scandinavia, IRIS 2011 - "ICT of Culture – Culture of ICT" Datum: Wed, 22 Dec 2010 08:18:09 +0000 Von: <Timo.Lainema(a)tse.fi> An: <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Call for papers - *The 34th Information Systems Research Seminar in Scandinavia – IRIS 2011 * August 16th – 19th, 2011, Turku Finland */ICT of Culture – Culture of ICT /* (In conjunction with the Second Scandinavian Conference on Information Systems, SCIS 2010, http://2011.scandinavian-iris.org/) As the oldest IS seminar in the world dating back to 1978 IRIS provides a well-established community where you can build and sustain your Nordic IS network. The seminar offers an informal atmosphere with a number of different activities such as workshops and keynote speeches. IRIS also offers thorough feedback on your work and deep insight into other researchers’ work through working groups where papers are presented and discussed. In addition, authors who submit a paper also act as reviewers in the review process. The premise in the IRIS series is, that all papers in a work group have been read by all participants in that working group, thus, using minimal time in the presentation of the papers, and maximal time in discussing the papers. In order to attract more seniors the Second Scandinavian Conference on Information Systems (SCIS) is held in conjunction with IRIS. The two conferences are seen as a full package to stimulate the Nordic IS research community, and are held together, SCIS during the mornings, and IRIS during the afternoons. We thus strongly encourage senior researchers and junior researchers to take part in the full programme of the conferences. IRIS is famous for its unreserved and egalitarian (= Nordic) atmosphere where it is easy to present and discuss your research. The structure of the conference is ideal for networking and collaboration – a good evidence of this is that many researchers meet in IRIS every year, and also that during the week the participants work on “unofficial” joint projects. The conference is not open only for researchers from the Nordic countries, we also welcome people from other parts of the world, bringing along and delivering views other than the Nordic ones into the discussion. *Theme * During the 21st century our society, culture and personal lives will be deeply influenced by advances in information and communication technology. Social media and social virtual worlds have already started transforming individuals from passive information consumers to active creators and distributors of information, knowledge and arts. We can already play with the idea that our technological capability will enable us to digitize everything that anyone has ever said and store it in Internet servers. Issues of interest to our conference are among others: /How does all this affect our society and culture? / /How should the media industry and other companies capitalize on the new empowered consumer? / /How does this transformation change our concept of the welfare society? / /What is the role of customer and partner communities? / /How do we integrate information systems to face this very fast moving new “culture of ICT”? / /How do we foster inter-organisational information systems evolution and improved supply of products and services? / /Or is it just a new fad which will find its way to a normal evolution of ICT use, design and management? / This transformation will also affect our own IS profession. IT is not created in a vacuum or designed somewhere outside our society. The new applications of ICT are increasingly a product of the surrounding society and culture. Furthermore, the cultural context where the IS development takes place is becoming increasingly diverse. Implementation of applications and practices of their use takes place in groups that involve members from different national, organizational, and professional sub-cultures. The development is increasingly driven by professionals from other fields and even by consumers. How can we manage and take advantage of this cultural diversity in our development teams? What are the challenges that different cultural backgrounds create in the teams that plan, design and implement new applications? ** *Tracks * To be announced based on submissions, as per usual with IRIS. ** *Paper submission * Papers are not to exceed 6000 words. Check the http://2011.scandinavian-iris.org/ on format and online submission. ** *Conference Venue * This Information Systems Research Seminar in Scandinavia will be held in 16th – 19th of August 2011 in Turku, Finland, in conjunction with the traditional SCIS conference.

PECCS will be held next year in Algarve, Portugal, on March 5-7. A position paper presents an arguable opinion about an issue. The goal of a position paper is to convince the audience that your opinion is valid and worth listening to, without the need to present completed research work and/or validated results. It is, nevertheless, important to support your argument with evidence to ensure the validity of your claims. A position paper may be a short report and discussion of ideas, facts, situations, methods, procedures or results of scientific research (bibliographic, experimental, theoretical, or other) focused on one of the conference topic areas. The acceptance of a position paper is restricted to the categories of "short paper" or "poster", i.e. a position paper is not a candidate to acceptance as "full paper". DVET PECCS is sponsored by INSTICC, held in collaboration with UPM (Universidad Politecnica de Madrid) and in cooperation with WfMC (Workflow Management Coalition), IEICE (Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers), IEICE SWIM (IEICE Special Interest Group on Software Interprise Modelling) and Euromicro. The conference will include four Keynote Lectures delivered by distinguished world-class researchers: Dr. Norbert Streitz (Smart Future Initiative, Germany), Prof. Bernhard Rinner (Klagenfurt University, Austria), Prof. Lech Jozwiak (Eindhoven University of Technology / Euromicro, The Netherlands) and Prof. Anind K. Dey (Carnegie Mellon University, U.S.A.). The Program Committee (check the website for a detailed list) includes internationally distinguished experts on the conference topic areas. Submitted papers will be subject to a double-blind review process. All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, on paper and on CD-ROM support. A short list of presented papers will be selected for publication of extended and revised versions in a special issue of the 'IET Software' Journal. The proceedings will be submitted for indexation by Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index, INSPEC, DBLP and EI. Best paper awards will be bestowed at the conference closing session. All papers presented at the conference venue will be available at the SciTePress Digital Library (http://www.scitepress.org/DigitalLibrary/). PECCS is co-located with VISIGRAPP 2011 (6th International Joint Conference on Computer Vision, Imaging and Computer Graphics Theory and Applications - http://www.visigrapp.org/) and registration to PECCS allows free access to the VISIGRAPP conference.

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [computational.science] CFP: International Journal of Cloud Computing (IJCC) Date: Tue, 21 Dec 2010 15:46:02 -0500 From: Yi Pan <pan(a)cs.gsu.edu> Organization: "ICCSA" To: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> * * *International Journal of Cloud Computing (IJCC) ISSN (Online): 2043-9997 - ISSN (Print): 2043-9989 * *http://www.inderscience.com/browse/index.php?journalCODE=ijcc * Published in 4 issues per year (_View Subscription Price_) *_Click to download IJCC leaflet_* * Cloud computing refers to computing with a pool of virtualized computer resources and is driven by economics of scale. A cloud can host a variety of different workloads, and allow workloads to be deployed and scaled-out quickly on-demand by rapid provisioning of virtual machines or physical machines. A cloud supports redundant, self-recovering, highly scalable programming models and allows workloads to recover from many unavoidable hardware/software failures. A cloud also monitors resource use in real time to enable rebalancing of allocations when needed. The idea is to move desktop computing to a service-oriented platform using server clusters and huge databases at datacenters. Cloud computing leverages its low cost and simplicity that benefits both users and the providers through providing cost-effective services and pay-per-use pricing model. In cloud computing, everything including software, platform, and infrastructure is as a service. Cloud computing makes data truly mobile and a user can simply access a chosen cloud with any internet-accessible device. Cloud computing overlaps some of the concepts of cluster, distributed, grid, service, ubiquitous, utility and virtual computing; however it has emerged from these computing domains and now has its own meaning. In cloud computing, a user does not care much what is in the cloud or what goes on there apart from being able to receive service from it. Cloud computing is now associated with a higher level abstraction of the cloud. Instead of there being application software, routers and servers, there are now services. The underlying hardware and software of networking is of course still there but there are now higher level service capabilities available to build applications. Hidden behind the services are data and computer resources. There have been many cloud computing platforms built so far including Google Cloud, IBM BlueCloud and Amazon Elastic Cloud. Programming models for cloud computing have been developed including MapReduce by Google and Hadoop by Yahoo group. Using these cloud computing models and toolsets, IT-related capabilities are provided as services, accessible without requiring detailed knowledge of the underlying technology. Of course, many mature technologies are used as components in cloud computing, but there are still many unresolved and open problems due to its unique characteristics which are different from distributed computing, cluster computing, grid computing, utility computing and service computing. /IJCC/ addresses the most innovative developments, research issues and solutions in cloud computing and its related technologies. * Go Top *Objectives* The objectives of /IJCC/ are to develop, promote and coordinate the development and practice of cloud computing. /IJCC/ aims to help professionals working in the field, academic educators and policy-makers to contribute, to disseminate knowledge, and to learn from each other's work.

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] 10th Annual Security Conference Date: Mon, 20 Dec 2010 21:44:39 -0500 From: Gurpreet Dhillon <gdhillon(a)vcu.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org The 10th Annual Security Conference Discourses in Security, Assurance and Privacy May 4-6, 2011 The Orleans Hotel and Casino Las Vegas, Nevada, USA www.security-conference.org CALL FOR PAPERS Submissions OPEN The nature and scope of the Information Security field has evolved over the past several years. No longer are we just concerned with protecting the technical edifice. Our emphasis has become more holistic and we tend to consider all aspects of information protection as central to the field of security. The Annual Security Conference provides a forum for discourses in Security, Assurance and Privacy that will define the moment and provide a useful basis for nurturing further dialogues. Contributions in the form of research papers, panel proposals and case studies are invited. All submissions are peer reviewed and automatically considered for publication in the Journal of Information System Security (http://www.jissec.org) and in special issues of other major publications. Editors/AEs of other major journals are also in attendance to advise authors as to how their papers could be formulated for possible submission to any of the basket of AIS journals (European Journal of Information Systems, Information Systems Journal, Information Systems Research, Journal of AIS, Journal of MIS, MIS Quarterly, Journal of Strategic Information Systems, Journal of Information Technology) among others.

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] 2nd Conference on Complex Systems Design & Management (CSDM 2011) - 7-9 December Paris, France: CALL FOR PAPERS Date: Mon, 20 Dec 2010 21:24:06 -0600 From: Kappelman, Leon <Leon.Kappelman(a)unt.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SECOND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON COMPLEX SYSTEMS DESIGN& MANAGEMENT (CSDM 2011) December 7-9, 2011 – Cité Universitaire, Paris (France) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Website : http://www.csdm2011.csdm.fr/-Submission-.html --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS The management of large-scale complex industrial systems has a considerable strategic importance for an important number of enterprises (most notably in Europe and North America). This spawned the relatively new academic field of "system architecture& engineering", producing a body of research that allows engineers to manage the increasing complexity of the technical systems they design. By its very nature, this field is at the interface between industry and academia, and requires its practitioners to be well versed in industrial application-related as well as theoretical knowledge. The ambition of the CSDM conference is to be the meeting point of reference for the industrial and academic environments working in the design and management of complex industrial systems. IMPORTANT DATES • Optional abstract pre-submission deadline: April 4, 2011 • Submission deadline: April 22, 2011 • Acceptance notice for industrial contributions: June 13, 2011 • Acceptance notice for academic contributions: June 30, 2011 • Final version submission deadline: August 31, 2011 SUBMISSION PROCEDURE As the CSDM conference is both industrial and academic, there will be different submission procedures according to the type of submitted contributions. Industrial submissions are aimed to present good practices in industry, shared experiences and case studies: either a 12-pages PDF-formatted paper or a 15-slides PowerPoint presentation is acceptable for selection purposes. Scientific submissions are aimed to present innovative methodological, technical or scientific results: a 12-pages PDF-formatted paper is necessary for selection purposes. Subject to contribution acceptance, inclusion on the Springer proceedings book requires a 12-pages paper formatted according to specific Springer style files. More details can be found on the conference website. Selected papers will be presented by their authors either on the format of a 30 minute talk or as a poster during a special session. This can be specified during the submission procedure. More details can be found on the conference website.
