Fwd: [AISWorld] CFP: Intelligence Implications of Social Media, for JITCAR 13:2
by Gustaf Neumann 18 Mar '10

18 Mar '10

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP: Intelligence Implications of Social Media, for JITCAR 13:2 Datum: Thu, 18 Mar 2010 11:09:29 -0400 Von: Gordon, Steven <gordon(a)babson.edu> An: <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> JOURNAL OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY CASE AND APPLICATION RESEARCH CALL FOR PAPERS "Intelligence Implications of Social Media" How can analysis of social media and social networks be used to create useful intelligence for governments and multinational corporations? This special issue will focus on a matter of critical concern to the intelligence community, including both government intelligence and business intelligence practitioners. We are concerned with how business or government organizations may harness social media to "make sense" of their environment. On the government side, intelligence today is much concerned with overall national security, economic security, international criminal syndicates, terrorism, human trafficking and in some regions with war-fighting. In private multinational enterprises, intelligence sometimes goes by the name of "competitive intelligence" or "business intelligence", but serves a similar purpose, that is ultimately the protection of the enterprise. Social media, including social networking, has grown rapidly and is challenging many models of information and social interaction on the Internet. Businesses are using social media to recruit skilled employees, collect information on consumers, and build communities of interest. Business intelligence operations are exploring how social media can short-cut research processes, or can help develop useful information regarding the market or the competition. Government intelligence practitioners are examining the effect social media is having on international relations in places such as Iran, where it has revolutionized the communications activities of protesters. This special issue of JITCAR invites case studies on any of the following areas: Area 1 -- Analysis and "Sense Making" Technologies including (1) Technologies (or approaches) for automated analysis of social media, including social networks; and (2) Survey of advanced technologies that "data mine" social media for deriving intelligence for either government or business purposes. Area 2 -- Infrastructure Technology including Inter-social Media systems and portals (connecting whole or parts of one social media system with another). Area 3 -- Organizational Impact including (1) Case studies, of how information developed by analysis of social media, or developed through use of social media, can be organized and used for decision making; (2) Integration of organizational strategy with incoming intelligence derived from social media; (3) Human Resources (HR) and training issues associated with effective utilization of social media by the organization; or (4) Development of "surge" capabilities, that is, the rapid build up, use, and then tear down of specialized functional intelligence analysis groups made possible by social media, including inter-organizational collaboration. Step One - Submission of One-Half Page Precis The first step is to submit a one-page precis that summarizes your research and a case study that fits the criteria herein. The online form to submit your one-page page précis can be found at http://tinyurl.com/yjzcvku. Schedule for Authors Jun 01, 2010 Submission of Précis Dec 15, 2010 Submission of Manuscript Mar 15, 2011 Reviews to Authors May 25, 2011 Final Manuscripts Due Evaluation of Submissions Each of these perspectives will be analyzed from the point of view of their possible effect on organizational intelligence, either government intelligence, or corporate (business) intelligence. Submissions also will be evaluated according to their clarity, depth of discussion and relationship to a known theory or the creation of a new one that can become a hypothesis for further research. Authors are invited to view an extended version of this call that includes a useful list of reference literature at http://www.jitcar.org/cfpSpecialIssueJITCAR13-2.pdf. Guest Editors Edward M.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] CFP: Adaptation of Web Services (AWS'2010) Datum: Wed, 17 Mar 2010 00:07:05 +0100 Von: Walid Chainbi <walid.chainbi(a)gmail.com> An: vki-list(a)dfki.de CC: LISTSERV(a)cse-huhns1.engr.sc.edu, DAI-LIST(a)cse-huhns1.engr.sc.edu, semantic-web(a)w3.org, ontology(a)fipa.org, WI(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de [Apologies if you receive this more than once] ************************************************* Call For Papers ********************************************** * First International Workshop on the Adaptation of Web Services (AWS'2010) * * August 31st, Toronto, Canada, 2010 * * http://www.uc.rnu.tn/aws2010.html * * within WI/IAT’2010 conference * AIMS AND SCOPE ++++++++++++++ Service-Oriented Computing (SOC) is a computing paradigm that utilizes Web services as the basic constructs to support the development of rapid, low-cost and easy composition of distributed applications even in heterogeneous environments. With the advent of SOC, computing environments have become open, and components are no longer under a single organization’s control. Consequently, Web services based applications are becoming difficult to adapt. Moreover, with the rapid growth of communication and information technologies, adaptation has gained a significant attention as it becomes a key feature of Web services allowing them to operate and evolve in highly dynamic environments. Adaptation mechanisms refer to different instantiations including configuration, healing, optimization, and protection. The primary objective of this workshop is to investigate ideas that may contribute to the adaptation of Web services. Theoretical as well as practical aspects are welcome. The workshop organizers welcome participation and contributions from those working or interested in the intersection of technologies such as agent technology and autonomic computing with SOC. TOPICS OF INTEREST ++++++++++++++++++ The topics of interest for AWS’2010 include, but are not limited to: * Adaptation solutions to Web services * Applications of adaptive Web services * Optimization of Web services * Configuration of Web services * Healing of Web services * Protection of Web Services * Self-* Web services * Agents vs. Web services * Agents for Web services * Design and management of self-* Web services.</font> SUBMISSION PROCEDURE and FORMATTING GUIDELINES ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Authors should submit their contributions electronically in PDF format by using the WI-IAT CyberChair system http://wi-consortium.org/cyberchair/wiiat10/scripts/ws_submit.php by the deadline given below.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] Aufruf für Beiträge: HMD 276 "GeoWeb" Datum: Tue, 16 Mar 2010 20:31:02 +0100 Von: Siegfried Reich <siegfried.reich(a)salzburgresearch.at> An: wi(a)lists.uni-karlsruhe.de HMD 276 Geoweb (Heft 6/2010) Univ.-Doz. Dr. Siegfried REICH, DI Karl REHRL, Salzburg Research Die Darstellung und Verarbeitung von raumbezogenen Daten mit Webtechnologien ist ein Themenfeld mit enorm steigender Bedeutung. Während in den Anfängen des World Wide Web vor allem die Virtualisierung des Raums im Mittelpunkt stand (Überweindung von physischen Grenzen durch das WWW), rückte mit zunehmendem Wachstums des Informationsraums auch die Frage der Strukturierung von Informationen immer mehr in den Mittelpunkt. Der geographische Bezug gilt nach Wurman (Information Anxiety 2, 2001) als eines von fünf grundlegenden Strukturierungskonzepten von Informationen. Die Verarbeitung von raumbezogenen Informationen blieb allerdings lange Zeit so genannten GIS (Geographische Informationssysteme)-Experten vorbehalten. Erst mit der Reifung der Technologien setzte sich auch die Nutzung von raumbezogenen Informationen im WWW durch – der Begriff des Geoweb oder GeoSpatial Web benennt diese Entwicklung. Das primäre Ziel des Geowebs ist es eine virtuelle Realität zu schaffen, die nicht losgelöst sondern direkt mit der physischen Welt verknüpft ist. Denkt man diese Entwicklung weiter führt sie systematisch zu einer Verschmelzung beider Welten. Als Anwender kennt man das Geoweb meist durch Web-basierte Kartendienste wie Google Maps, Microsoft Bing Maps oder Yahoo Maps oder Virtual Globes wie Google Earth oder Microsoft Virtual Earth. Diese Dienste waren es auch, die das Geoweb einer breiten Nutzergruppe von Nicht-GIS-Experten zugänglich machten. Unter Geoweb versteht man eine Web-basierte Plattform, die es ermöglicht Inhalte zu geo-referenzieren und dadurch räumlich verarbeitbar und darstellbar zu machen. Ein Beispiel dafür sind so genannte Map-Mashups (die Nutzung von Karten zur Darstellung von Inhalten aus unterschiedlichen Quellen), die im Geoweb mittlerweile allgegenwärtig und von beinahe keinem Web-Angebot mehr wegzudenken sind. Doch das Potential des Geowebs ist wesentlich größer. Es ist wahrscheinlich, daß räumliche Darstellungen in Zukunft die zentrale Rolle im Zugang zu Informationen einnehmen werden. Dieses HMD-Schwerpunktheft bietet einen Überblick, was man unter dem Geoweb versteht, wie es sich in den letzten Jahren entwickelt hat und wohin es sich in den nächsten Jahren weiterentwickeln wird. Es wird der Stand der Technik im Zusammenhang mit der Darstellung und Verarbeitung von raumbezogenen Informationen im WWW erläutert, wie bestehende Inhalte mit Georeferenzen versehen werden können, welche unterschiedlichen Modelle der Raumdarstellung es gibt, welche Dienste den Zugang zu weltweiten Geodaten ermöglichen und wie man ortsbezogenen Informationen benutzerfreundlich darstellen bzw. wie man mit diesen interagieren kann. Wir rufen zu Beiträgen von Praktikern als auch Wissenschaftern zu folgenden Themenfeldern auf: • Georeferenzierung von Inhalten (technische Grundlagen, Methoden zur Referenzierung von bestehenden Inhalten, Methoden zur automatisierten Ersterfassung von Inhalten, Community-Prozesse, …) • Darstellung von und Interaktion mit raumbezogenen Inhalten (Kartographie im Web, Technologien für die Web-Kartographie, interaktive Karten, Fragen der Benutzerinteraktion, 3D-Darstellungen, Methoden für die Erzeugung von Mashups, Navigation in raumbezogenen Daten, spatial information retrieval, …) • Standards für die Verarbeitung von ortsbezogenen Inhalten (W3C-Standards, OGC Standards, Markup-Sprachen wie GML, KML, GeoRSS, …) • Modellierung von raumbezogenen Daten (Theoretische Modelle des Raums, kognitive Modelle des Raums, Lokationsmodelle, räumliche Semantiken, semantische Interoperabilität, kulturelle Unterschiede im Raumverständnis, …) • Weltweite Geodatenbasen und deren Nutzung im Web (Zugang zu Geodatenbasen über Web-Dienste, freie Geodaten wie zum Beispiel Open Street Map, rechtliche Fragen der Geodatennutzung, Fragen der Kosten und der Qualität und der Businessmodelle, Fragen der weltweiten Erfassung von Geodaten, Spatial Data Infrastructures (SDI), Wert von Geodaten, …) • Anwendungen des Geoweb (Beispiele aus Anwendungsfeldern wie Tourismus, Reiseplanung, Verkehr, Infrastruktur, Geomarketing, öffentliche Verwaltung, Raumplanung und Partizipation von Bürgern, Virtual Globes, Digital Cities, räumliche Analysen wie zum Beispiel Trendanalysen, GeoMining, …) • Methoden& Technologien des Geoweb (Geo Information Engineering, Geoweb-Engineering, räumliche Datenbanken, Geodatenserver, skalierbare Verarbeitung von Geodaten für Webanwendungen,…) • Sensorweb (Echtzeitdaten mit Ortsbezug im Web, Darstellung von Sensordaten, Fragestellungen der weltweiten Skalierbarkeit von Sensorweb, Standards, …) • Mobiler Zugang zum Geoweb (Lokalisierungsdienste, ortsbasierte Dienste, mobile Browser, erweiterte Realität, …) Termine - ab sofort: bitte informieren Sie uns vorab über eine geplante Einreichung (siegfried.reich(a)salzburgresearch.at, karl.rehrl(a)salzburgresearch.at). - Die Einreichfrist für Beiträge ist der 30.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] "Theories of Information Dynamics and Interaction and their Applications to Dialogue", Copenhagen (Denmark), 16-20 August 2010 Datum: Tue, 16 Mar 2010 12:49:45 +0100 (CET) Von: lorini(a)irit.fr Organisation: "ICCSA" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> CALL FOR PAPERS Workshop on Theories of Information Dynamics and Interaction and their Application to Dialogue TIDIAD@ESSLLI2010 http://www.irit.fr/~Laure.Vieu/Esslli10 Workshop organized as part of the European Summer School on Logic, Language and Information ESSLLI 2010 (http://esslli2010cph.info/) August 16-20 (ESSLLI 2nd week) 2010, Copenhagen Workshop Purpose and Topics: ---------------------------- Theoretical approaches to communication and dialogue modeling are varied and often unrelated because separately focusing on different aspects of dialogue (speech acts, goals, beliefs, plans, questions, conventions, roles, cooperation, disputes, argumentation, reference, semantics-pragmatics interface...). On the other hand, the area of foundations of multi-agent systems is inducing new developments in logics of interaction and information dynamics, with a recent trend towards comparison and integration. Analyzing the impact of this trend on communication and dialogue modeling is timely. This workshop aims at discussing formal theories and logics of information dynamics and interaction and their applications to dialogue and communication modeling. It is intended to bring together logicians, linguists and computer scientists in order to provide a better understanding of the potentialities and limitations of formal methods for the analysis of dialogue and communication. Its scope includes not only the technical aspects of logics, but also multidisciplinary aspects from linguistics, philosophy of language, philosophy of social reality, social sciences (social psychology, economics). The following are some examples of formal theories and logics that are relevant to the workshop (no order): speech act theory, argumentation theory, game theory, public announcement logic, dynamic epistemic logic (DEL), logics of agency and power (e.g. STIT, ATL, Coalition Logic), theories of persuasion, theories of commitment, dynamic semantics, semantic approaches to interrogative clauses, rhetorical approaches to dialogue (e.g., Segmented Discourse Representation Theory). The focus of the workshop will be on recent developments, especially those that combine several approaches (e.g. dynamic epistemic logic and speech act theory, dynamic epistemic logic and segmented discourse representation theory, public announcement logic and commitment theories, STIT and dynamic epistemic logic, Coalition Logic and public announcement logic...) to deal with complex dialogue and communication phenomena.
