-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP: 3M4SE - EDOC 2010, 25-29 October 2010, Vitória, ES, Brazil Datum: Fri, 12 Feb 2010 16:11:39 +0100 Von: <m.e.iacob(a)utwente.nl> An: <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> 3M4SE 2010 - International Workshop on Models and Model-driven Methods for Service Engineering In conjunction with the Fourteenth IEEE International EDOC Conference (EDOC 2010) "The Enterprise Computing Conference" 25-29 October 2010, Vitória, ES, Brazil http://edocconference.org <http://edocconference.org/> Deadline for workshop paper submissions: 17 April 2010 ABOUT THE WORKSHOP Recent developments in meta-modelling and model transformation techniques have led to increasing adoption of model-driven engineering practices. The increase in interest and significance of the model-driven approach has also accelerated its application in the development of large (distributed) IT systems to support (collaborative) enterprises. Shifting attention from source code to models permits enterprises to focus on their core concerns, such as business processes, services and collaborations, without being forced to simultaneously consider the underlying technologies. Different concerns are typically addressed by different models, with transformations between the models and ultimately to the source code. Although the model-driven approach offers theoretical benefits for the development, maintenance and evolution of enterprise computing systems and corresponding service oriented solutions, a number of issues for the practical application of the approach still exist. In order to solve these issues further advances in models (business goals, pragmatic interoperability, semantic interoperability) and model-driven methods (design concepts, languages, metamodels, profiles, specification frameworks) are necessary. This workshop aims at helping the convergence of research on model-driven development and practical application of the model-driven approach in the area of enterprise computing and service engineering. The workshop addresses questions with respect to the requirements on, concepts for, properties of and experience with models and model-driven methods for service engineering in the area of enterprise computing. A special focus will be on the combined application of model-driven and semantic approaches in the different phases of the service lifecycle. TOPICS The workshop invites original submissions from both researchers and practitioners in the following (non-exhaustive) list of topics: - Model-driven service-oriented design process, milestones and design guidelines for service engineering (business goals, pragmatic interoperability, semantic interoperability); - Modelling techniques for Service-Oriented Architectures (design concepts, languages, metamodels, profiles and specification frameworks); - Full lifecycle requirements management for service systems; - Modelling of non-functional and Quality-of-Service characteristics; - Modelling, analysis and execution of service compositions; - Platform-independent modelling techniques; - Mappings and transformation patterns from platform-independent models to specific technology platforms (Web Services, J2EE, .NET, etc.). - Limitations of UML for MDA-SOA, alternative languages; - Model-driven service description, publication and discovery; - Platform models and generic platform types; - Use of viewpoints, relations and correspondences between viewpoints for model-driven service-oriented design; - Implications of (middleware) platform characteristics for the model-driven design process; - Empirical studies and experience reports on models and model-driven methods. IMPORTANT DATES Paper submission due: 17 April 2010 Notification to authors: 4 June 2010 Camera ready due: 16 June 2010 Workshop: 25th or 26th October 2010 SUBMISSION GUIDELINES The workshop welcomes submissions of full papers (8 to 10 pages long) and position papers (around 4 pages) in the IEEE Computer Society format. Full research papers should describe original results that have not been accepted or submitted for publication elsewhere. These papers will be evaluated for scientific or technical contribution, originality, appropriateness and significance. Position papers should describe new insights gained, should define new problems or research directions and/or and pose challenges for researchers. These papers will be evaluated based on their appropriateness, significance, clarity and on their potential to trigger interesting discussions on the day of the workshop. All submissions must comply with the IEEE Computer Society conference proceedings format guidelines (http://www2.computer.org/portal/web/cscps/formatting) (please use the latest template as there have been updates recently). Submissions must be in English. Submissions should be submitted in PDF format using the EasyChair system (see http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=3m4se2010). All papers will be refereed by at least 3 members of the international program committee. At least one author of each accepted paper must participate in the workshop and register for the whole conference.

The scope of SDMAS workshop is focused on scalability of data management in computing systems in various domains. Data management has become a key issue in many computing systems. High-performance computing, data visualization, multimedia and data mining systems are examples of application areas where input/output and storage are critical issues for performance. A key challenge in those areas is how to transfer large amounts of data in and out of large-scale systems, like clusters, Grids and more recently in Cloud Computing environments. Another key point is how to transfer large amount of data in a timely manner. The aim of the workshop is to identify, discuss, and share the barriers and workarounds that have been discovered in the storage, input/output and data management fields. GOAL The Fourth International Workshop on Scalable Data Management Applications and Systems is a forum that brings together researchers and practitioners interested in different aspects of data management systems and its applications to industry. The workshop seeks to act as a conduit for the presentation of novel approaches used in data management (from the hardware layer to the higher software layers) as well as their application to research and industry. As in previous editions, the workshop will be held along with the International Conference on Parallel and Distributed Processing Techniques and Applications (PDPTA). PDPTA is a premier conference in the parallel and distributed computing arena which offers the opportunity to interact with researchers and practitioners.

The theme for this year's conference 'eTrust: Implications for the Individual, Enterprises and Society' is reflecting an ongoing discussion about fundamental considerations for the growth and stability of markets and communities: trust. As emerging digital environments generate new ways of communication and interaction between individuals and individuals and organizations based on new infrastructures there is an increasing demand for a more reliable eWorld. New eResponsiblities have to be taken by all stakeholders of the eWorld in order to cope with emerging eRisk challenges: businesses, governments, and individuals in their multiple roles as managers, politicians, employees, parents, citizens, etc. Actions have to be taken on both the macro and the micro level, organizational configurations, process related issues, new kind of products and services, and necessary infrastructures and technologies as well as respective policies have to be discussed. Research papers addressing the conference theme should be original, unpublished elsewhere and no longer than 5,000 words. Detailed information about electronic submission and other issues will be available on the Conference web site. All accepted papers will be published in the Conference Proceedings on the web and on CDs (with ISBN and CIP number). Since 2001 the Bled research papers are available in AIS Electronic Library as well. This year's conference carries two Special Interest Tracks: eHealth: Critical Issues in Delivering Cross-border Sustainable Healthcare Involving Patients and Healthcare Professionals (Track Chair: Nilmini Wickramasinghe) Regional eCollaborations - Success Factors and Impediments (Track Co-Chairs: Joze Gricar, Paul Swatman, Paul Timmers) For additional research topics and further information please visit our website: _ _http://www.bledconference.org/index.php/eConference/2010/schedConf/cfp Deadline for submission of papers: February 26, 2010 (extended!) ________________________________________________________________ Dr. Hans-Dieter Zimmermann Fon +41 71 228 76 53 Fax +41 71 228 63 39 Web http://www.fhsg.ch FHS St.Gallen, Hochschule für Angewandte Wissenschaften Institut IPM-FHS | Teufener Strasse 2 | 9000 St.Gallen | Switzerland

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP: Journal of Nature Inspired Business Computing (JNIBC) Datum: Wed, 10 Feb 2010 15:18:50 -0800 Von: Sergio Davalos <sergiod(a)u.washington.edu> An: <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> *Journal of Nature Inspired Business Computing (JNIBC) * _http://www.ibimapublishing.com/journals/JNIBC/jnibc.html_ *Special Issue on:* *Natural Computing Approaches for Achieving Competitive Organizational Performance* Organizations are confronted by market, societal, and technological pressures in dynamic, complex environment. To remain competitive, organizations must respond strategically with operational actions to meet operations performance objectives: quality, speed, dependability, flexibility, and cost. Hard computing and soft computing methodologies have been used to find solutions for problems of limited complexity. However, many problems are difficult to solve due to amount of computation involved or the level of complexity involved in defining a solution. Nature inspired computing (NIC) has been used to find "robust" business computing solutions that remain effective in the dynamic, complex environment. Nature inspired computing applications include agent-based systems, swarm intelligence (ant-colony, bee-colony, particle swarm algorithms etc.), cellular automata, chaos theory, evolutionary algorithms, artificial immune systems, neural and fuzzy systems etc. Organizations that use NIC methodologies for solving business problems can their improve the competitive and operational performance. The main goal of this special issue of JNIBC is to increase the awareness of the effectiveness and power of nature inspired business computing technology in addressing operational performance objectives. We invite researchers to submit papers on nature inspired computing applied to problems that impact operational performance objectives based on quality, speed, flexibility, dependability, and cost. The scope of the journal is available at http://www.ibimapublishing.com//journals/JNIBC/jnibc.html <http://www.ibimapublishing.com/journals/JNIBC/jnibc.html> and topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Applications of Soft Computing in accounting, finance, marketing, operations management * Soft Computing data mining for business * Multi-Agent System Applications in business * Genetic Algorithms, Rough sets and Fuzzy sets in business * Swarm Intelligence applications in business * Artificial Neural Networks in business * Soft computing approaches for business modeling * Ant colony optimization in business * Soft Computing for classification and prediction * Intelligent agents and Data Mining * Hybrid Computational Approaches for data mining * Nature-inspired concept learning and machine learning * Immunity based approaches in business * Computational Intelligence for data mining * Evolutionary computation in data mining * Biology in business Submission Guidelines Only original research papers will be considered. Authors should limit initial submissions to no more than 30 double-spaced pages in 12-point font with appropriate margins, inclusive of all materials (i.e., references, figures, tables and appendices). Submission guidelines are available at: _http://www.ibimapublishing.com/journals/JNIBC/author.html_ A double-blind review will be conducted and papers will be returned to the authors, often with brief explanatory notes for further action. Submissions will be screened to ensure the submissions fit with the special issue. Tentative Schedule Deadline for manuscript submission: May 15, 2010 Review and return to authors: June 15, 2010 Deadline for revised papers: July 15, 2010 Notification of final acceptances: Aug. 15, 2010 Deadline for final versions: Sept. 15, 2010 Tentative Publication Date: Oct. 15, 2010 Submissions may be sent by email to: submit(a)ibimapublishing.com <mailto:submit@ibimapublishing.com>. In the email, please indicate the journal name for greater processing efficiency. The Journal of Nature-Inspired Business Computing (JNiBC) is an international peer reviewed and open-access applied research journal for publication of high quality papers on nature-inspired solutions for business problems.
