Fwd: [AISWorld] Deadline extended: MCIS 2010: Information Economics & Business
by Gustaf Neumann 23 Apr '10

23 Apr '10

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] Deadline extended: MCIS 2010: Information Economics & Business Datum: Fri, 23 Apr 2010 08:15:40 +0300 Von: Daphne Raban <draban(a)gsb.haifa.ac.il> An: <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Dear Colleagues, We would like to invite you to submit a paper to the MCIS 2010 conference (http://www.mcis2010.org) and particularly to our track on Information Economics and Business. A description of the track is included below. Important dates: Deadline for all submissions: *May 15*, 2010 Notification of acceptance: July 1, 2010 Camera-ready versions: July 15, 2010 Conference: September 12-14, 2010 5th Mediterranean Conference on Information Systems - MCIS 2010 Tel Aviv, Israel, September 2010 Track proposal Track title: *Information Economics and Business * * * Track description: ** *Information is a constant challenge to economic theory and business practice. It is ubiquitous and still hard to find on demand, over-abundant and still insufficiently available to decision-makers, subject to private ownership while it is, by nature, meant to be free. The increased digitization of information and the rise of the Internet as key medium that accommodates it as both "stocks" and "flows" account for a wide range of innovative developments in managing information at large. The Economics of Information, born as a stand-alone discipline in the pre-digital phase of the post-industrial age, is now facing the challenge of shaping the underlying rationalities applicable to dealing with information across organizations, markets, communities and networks. * * * *Organizational boundaries are blurred when it comes to information systems. Technologies that were conceived in the public domain find their way to organizational applications. Systems that were previously well-defined products are turning more and more into service models which are provided by external suppliers. How do companies monetize previously non-marketable technologies or information resources? How do decision makers evaluate such systems and resources? Are the known business models sufficient or are new models needed to sustain the technological and cultural changes brought about by the advent of creative industries and the rise of the creative class? These are some of the questions that this track wishes to address.* * * *We invite submissions of papers (academic and practical, full research and research-in-progress) dealing with, but not limited to, the following:* *IS investment decisions* *IS performance and ROI* *New information business models * *Information markets* *Innovative pricing of digital goods* *The value of information* *Web 2.0-based collaborative economy* *Proprietary vs. Open Source Software * *Digital information: fee or free ?* We look forward to receiving your submissions.

Please see the respective workshop web sites for details on how to submit your paper and go to http://www.ht2010.org. 1. International Workshop on Modeling Social Media 2010 (MSM'10) x Alvin Chin, Nokia Research Center, Beijing, China. Contact: alvin.chin (at) nokia.com Andreas Hotho, University of Wuerzburg, Germany Contact: hotho (at) informatik.uni-wuerzburg.de Markus Strohmaier, Graz University of Technology, Austria Contact: markus.strohmaier (at) tugraz.at Social media applications such as blogs, microblogs, wikis, news aggregation sites and social tagging systems have pervaded the web and have transformed the way people communicate and interact with each other online. In order to understand and effectively design social media systems, we need to develop models that are capable of reflecting their complex, multi-faceted socio-technological nature. While progress has been made in modeling particular aspects of selected social media applications (such as the architecture of weblog conversations, the evolution of wikipedia, or the mechanics of news propagation), other aspects are less understood.

Rhetorical and Semantic Possibilities of Links: Cultural and Literary Applications of Links http://www.ht2010.org/Workshops_2.htmlDeena Larsen Ann-Barbara Graff Contact: deenalarsen(a)yahoo.com<mailto:deenalarsen@yahoo.com> Mark Bernstein has written that the link is "the most important new punctuation mark since the comma." More than that, the link actually conveys meaning. But how do people use links to communicate ideas? This workshop is designed to uncover the semantic value of the link and its potential rhetorical effects. We want to know what has been the cultural, literary, rhetorical, and semantic impact of the link to date, and what future effects can we anticipate and bring about. We will explore the link in hands-on exercises and examinations of electronic literature and other hypermedia examples. Ideally, the audience will be broad, composed of anyone who wants to develop a further understanding of this tool. More Information<http://www.ht2010.org/Workshops_2.html> 3. Critical Code Studies Mark Marino Contact: markcmarino(a)gmail.com<mailto:markcmarino@gmail.com> Recent movements in technocultural studies have sent critics "under the hood" of digital texts. This workshop examines the code that produces the creative digital artifacts in order to develop a rich sense of the artistic and social implications of particular coding choices. A primary goal is to develop the ways of speaking about the code to complement the kinds of analyses that have typified Hypertext. More Information<http://www.ht2010.org/Workshops_3.html> 4.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] Call for Papers - Int. Workshop on Tourism and Web Engineering in conjunction with ICWE'10 Datum: Thu, 22 Apr 2010 15:47:59 +0200 Von: Christoph Grün <christoph(a)ec.tuwien.ac.at> An: <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> CALL FOR PAPERS ======================================================================== INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON WEB ENGINEERING AND TOURISM (WEBTOUR) http://www.ec.tuwien.ac.at/webtour to be held in conjunction with the 10th International Conference on Web Engineering (ICWE) (July 5 - 9, 2010, Vienna, Austria), http://icwe2010.webengineering.org ======================================================================== Extended Deadline: May 3rd, 2010 ======================================================================== GENERAL OVERVIEW ====================== The Internet has become a cornerstone of the tourism& travel industry and created an online travel market that facilitates tourists to search for information and book their trip online. The huge number of Web sites that offer travel-related information, however, might lead to daunting information overload. In order to support tourists in decision-making, new methods and technologies (e.g., semantic Web, recommender systems, context-sensitive approaches, or innovative user interfaces) are required to deliver highly targeted services to tourists. Besides that, the penetration of high-end mobile devices together with the decrease in mobile data prices have resulted in tourists asking for mobile services. Also the supplier side, including destination management and travel organizations, has to keep up with the rapid developments in ICT. For this purpose, they have to use innovative Web mining methods to analyze the market, inter-organizational Web applications/services to exchange information and novel forms of social Web and rich Internet applications to enforce the contact with their customers. The crucial prerequisite for all these developments discussed are proper Web engineering techniques to allow for a systematic development and maintenance of next generation tourism Web applications. PURPOSE& ORGANISATION ====================== The purpose of the International Workshop on Web Engineering& Tourism (WEBTOUR) is to bring together researchers from diverse communities who are interested in discussing ideas and ongoing work related to the field of Web engineering and e-tourism. The Workshop will follow a format supporting in-depth discussion and collaboration of participants. As such, each session will include extended presentations (20 minutes) and time for further discussion. All papers presented in the Workshop will be published by Springer as LNCS post-proceedings. Authors of selected papers will be invited to publish an extended version of their work in the Journal of Information Technology& Tourism (JITT) series (see http://ojs.modul.ac.at/index.php/jitt). TOPICS OF INTEREST ====================== The major topics of interest focus on innovative Web engineering techniques for tourism related tasks and applications. They include but are not limited to: * Engineering of Web-based tourism applications * Mobile, context-sensitive and ubiquitous tourism applications * Tourism recommender systems * Innovative user interfaces * Preference modeling and tourist behavior research * Tourism ontologies and Semantic Web * Tourist trip planning with heuristic methods * Statistical methods for Web monitoring in tourism * Travel 2.0 and social communities * Web information extraction and mining from tourism sources * Cultural heritage& ICT IMPORTANT DATES ====================== Paper submission: May 03, 2010 (23:59 Hawaii Time) Notification: May 21, 2010 (23:59 Hawaii Time) Camera-ready version: June 7, 2010 (23:59 Hawaii Time) Workshop day: July 5 or 6, 2010 SUBMISSION ====================== Authors are invited to submit papers that demonstrate original unpublished research in the combined field of Web engineering and e-tourism.

Datum: Thu, 22 Apr 2010 10:48:05 +0300 Von: Albert Levi <levi(a)sabanciuniv.edu> Organisation: Sabanci University An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org Highlights: - GameSec 2010 is now in-cooperation with ACM SIGSAC - Paper submission deadline is 3 weeks away (May 15) ------------ CALL FOR PAPERS GameSec 2010 - Conference on Decision and Game Theory for Security 22-23 November 2010, Berlin, Germany www.gamesec-conf.org *** Important Dates Submission deadline: 15 May 2010 Acceptance date: 23 August 2010 Camera-ready due: 15 September 2010 *** Industry Gold Sponsor: Deutsche Telekom Laboratories Industry Silver Sponsor: Frauenhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute Technical co-sponsors: IEEE Control System Society International Society of Dynamic Games In-cooperation with ACM SIGSAC *** GameSec 2010, the inaugural Conference on Decision and Game Theory for Security will take place on the campus of Technical University Berlin, Germany, on November 22-23, 2010. Securing complex and networked systems and managing associated risks become increasingly important as they play an indispensible role in modern life at the turn of the information age. Concurrently, security of ubiquitous communication, data, and computing pose novel research challenges. Security is a multi-faceted problem due to the complexity of underlying hardware, software, and network inter- dependencies as well as human and social factors. It involves decision making in multiple levels and multiple time scales, given the limited resources available to both malicious attackers and administrators defending networked systems. GameSec conference aims to bring together researchers who aim to establish a theoretical foundation for making resource allocation decisions that balance available capabilities and perceived security risks in a principled manner. The conference focuses analytical models based on game, information, communication, optimization, decision, and control theories that are applied to diverse security topics. At the same time, the connection between theoretical models and real world security problems are emphasized to establish the important feedback loop between theory and practice. Observing the scarcity of venues for researchers who try to develop a deeper theoretical understanding of the underlying incentive and resource allocation issues in security, we believe that GameSec will fill an important void and serve as a distinguished forum of highest standards for years to come. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): * Security games * Security and risk management * Mechanism design and incentives * Decentralized security algorithms * Security of networked systems * Security of Web-based services * Security of social networks * Intrusion and anomaly detection * Resource allocation for security * Optimized response to malware * Identity management * Privacy and security * Reputation and trust * Information security and watermarking * Physical layer security in wireless networks * Information theoretic aspects of security * Adversarial machine learning * Distributed learning for security * Cross-layer security * Usability and security * Human behavior and security * Dynamic control of security systems * Organizational aspects of risk management * Cooperation and competition in security * and more... *** Submission instructions will be available on the conference website. Prospective authors are encouraged to submit a PDF version of their full papers in the announced format and in a font no smaller than 10-points. The initial submissions are limited to 12 single-column pages to decrease the workload of volunteer reviewers. The camera-ready version of accepted papers is limited to 20 single-column pages. The conference language is English. The conference proceedings will be published by Springer in Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS). The proceedings will also be made available online by Springer in full-text electronic form via Springerlink. *** Steering Board Tansu Alpcan (TU-Berlin) Nick Bambos (Stanford Univ.)

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] last CfP: International Workshop on, Data Management and Information Analytics - DMIA 2010 Datum: Thu, 22 Apr 2010 00:36:05 +0100 Von: Markus Helfert <markus.helfert(a)computing.dcu.ie> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org Last Call for Papers - Deadline extended International Workshop on Data Management and Information Analytics - DMIA 2010 23 July, 2010 - Athens, Greece In conjunction with the 5th International Conference on Software and Data Technologies - ICSOFT 2010 http://www.icsoft.org/DMIA.htm Important Dates =============== Regular Paper Submission: April 30, 2010 (deadline extended) Authors Notification: May 12, 2010 (deadline extended) Final Paper Submission and Registration: May 19, 2010 Scope and Goals =============== For several years research and practice has addressed various topics related to Data Management such as data modeling, data warehousing, data movement, database administration and data mining. However recent advances in technology provided us the possibility to gather enormous amounts of data. This resulted in many new challenges for data management. Most frequent examples of the technology advances are mobile, wireless and sensor technology providing many opportunities for innovative applications. The large amount of data, gathered anywhere from anything, requires different solutions than traditional data management approaches. With this workshop we intend to present and discuss novel approaches in data management and information analytics. Overall aim of this workshop is to examine how advances in technology have changed traditional data management approaches and how these advances enable enterprises to increase the value of information. In the context of advances in technology, the goal of this workshop is to discuss and share best practices, experiences, models, architectures, methods and tools for data management and information analytics. Challenges for data management arise not only from managing large data volumes, but also from an increased complexity in the data manufacturing system. Data often is provided from many heterogeneous sources. Data transfer and transformation routines are complex and often involve a variety and large number of database systems and applications. Furthermore, enterprises often not only utilize structured data, but also include more frequently semi-structured or unstructured data sources. Support for data integration, quality management, modeling and managing complex data manufacturing systems are crucial, in order to provide benefit for enterprises. In contrast to more traditional environments, data in these complex systems are often not certain, not always accessible or of different quality. This calls for different approaches in data management. Another important topic regarding data management is data mining and analytics, which can expose interesting information about the data being collected. Further research challenges arise from the large amount of relationship data. Novel approaches in analyzing relationships between data, can provide additional insight and thus benefits enterprises. In these data-rich environments, privacy and data security provides further challenges for data management. Overall economic evaluations are required to assess the benefit of novel approaches of data management to enterprises. The idea of the workshop is to provide a forum and platform for both researchers and practitioners to exchange knowledge, ideas and to learn from each other. Practitioners and researchers present findings and experience. The workshop seeks contributions on concepts, models, architectures, methods and tools associated with data management and information analytics. In this regard, we encourage the submission of design science research in the form of constructs, models, methods and instantiations. We invite contributions from industry, academia and collaborative research as well as encourage postgraduate researchers to submit their work. Submissions may be any of the following: research papers, short papers, research in progress, case studies, teaching cases or experience reports. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Managing large Data Manufacturing systems * Organizational Concepts and best practice * Architectural Concepts * Data and Information Quality * Data Modeling * Methods for Data Management * Modeling and Analyzing Relationship Data * Modeling large Data Manufacturing systems * Data Warehousing and Data Cleansing * Data Visualization * Data privacy and integrity * Management of uncertain data * Accessibility of data * Mobile data management * Management of Sensor Data * Data integration * Integration and analyzing semi-structured and unstructured data * Text Analytics * Business Cases and Cost/Benefit Analysis of Data Management Approaches Important Dates =============== Regular Paper Submission: April 30, 2010 (deadline extended) Authors Notification: May 12, 2010 (deadline extended) Final Paper Submission and Registration: May 19, 2010 Paper Submission ================ Prospective authors are invited to submit papers in any of the topics listed above.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] 3rd CFP: rBPM 2010 (1st International Workshop on Reuse in Business Process Management) Datum: Wed, 21 Apr 2010 18:20:29 -0300 Von: Marcelo Fantinato <m.fantinato(a)usp.br> An: <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> *1st International Workshop on Reuse in Business Process Management (rBPM 2010) *http://each.uspnet.usp.br/rbpm2010 September 13, 2010 Hoboken, New Jersey - USA (close to New York City) In conjunction with the *8th International Conference on Business Process Management (BPM 2010)* http://www.bpm2010.org <http://www.bpm2010.org/> ------- 3rd CALL FOR PAPERS (one month to the deadline) ------- *Aims and Scope* ============= The current complexity inherent in the corporative world demands a great dynamism from the IT infrastructure in order to provide technical solutions for conducting business. Business Process Management (BPM), including its service-oriented foundation, has been providing important technological support to improve organization competitiveness. In order to increase dynamism and competitiveness, BPM can benefit from reuse approaches and techniques at several stages of business process life cycle. This workshop will be dedicated to explore any type of reuse in the Business Process Management domain. Therefore, it will be a forum to discuss systematic reuse applied to BPM at its various levels: a) the basic service-oriented foundation level – including issues such as service development, description, publication, discovery and selection; b) the service composition level – encompassing service negotiation and service aggregation; c) the management and monitoring upper level – including business process modeling, execution, monitoring, and contract establishment and enactment; and, d) the Quality of Service and Semantics orthogonal level. Moreover, the impact of reuse on business- and service-oriented engineering as well as how it can help in the design of more high-quality process models are very important topics to be discussed in this workshop. Different existing reuse approaches and techniques can be extended to be applied to this fairly new domain, including: software product line or software product families; variability descriptors; design patterns such as feature modeling; aspect-orientation; and component-based development. In addition, completely new approaches and techniques can be proposed. Their use must also be discussed, preferably under experimentation as well as results analysis. *Suggested Topics *============== Possible topics for the workshop papers are (but are not restricted to): - Product Lines (Product Families) for BPM - Patterns for business process and workflows - Variability descriptors applied in BPM elements - Feature modeling applied in BPM elements - Aspect-oriented extensions for BPM - Component-based Development and Service and Business-oriented Engineering - Reuse in Service-oriented Architecture (SOA) - Reuse in service development, negotiation, composition - Quality of Service (QoS) and Reuse - Reuse in SaaS (Software as a Service) approaches - Reusable asset libraries for BPM - Reuse in semantic Web services - Empirical findings related to reuse in the BPM domain - Surveys related to reuse in the BPM domain - Reuse in business process modeling, execution, monitoring - Reuse in electronic contract establishment - Case studies and experiments results related to reuse in BPM - Experiences with reuse in industry - Analysis of reuse related to Web services, WSDL, WS-BPEL - Reuse in e-Business, e-Commerce, B2B, B2C, virtual organizations - Web services, WSDL, WS-BPEL and extensions to improve reuse - Reuse related to ecosystems and business processes *Submission Guidelines *================== Papers should be submitted in English language, in PDF format and in the LNBIP (Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing) format. Instructions for authors are available at: http://www.springer.com/series/7911 <http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-7-487211-0>. Two types of papers can be submitted: - Regular paper: describing advanced and mature work, whose size must be from 9 to 12 pages; - WIP paper: describing work in progress, whose size must be from 4 to 6 pages. Papers have to present original research contributions not concurrently submitted elsewhere. All contributions will be evaluated based on originality, technical quality and relevance to the workshop themes.
