E-mail: vjain(a)ut.edu * * *Dr. Yogesh Dwivedi* School of Business & Economics, Swansea University, UK E-mail: ykdwivedi(a)gmail.com * * *Dr. Vishanth Weerakkody* Business School, Brunel University, UK Email: vishanth.weerakkody(a)brunel.ac.uk *Dr. Peter Blakey* Massey University, Auckland, New Zealand E-mail: P.Blakey(a)massey.ac.nz Over years, electronic government (or e-government as it is commonly referred to) has matured from merely cataloguing information to transforming the way governments across the world conduct their business with different stakeholders. Increased adoption and application of e-Government across countries is being propelled by its potential to offer not only a convenient service to citizens but also related benefits such as reduced transaction costs and enhanced operational efficiency. From citizens’ perspective, e-government holds the potential not only to streamline the services offered to citizens but also to engage citizens’ in the governance process. However, one of the most overlooked pieces of the puzzle in the current debate and research on e-government is the citizen. While role of e-government in improving internal processes and achieving internal efficiencies cannot be denied, the transformational role of e-government can be achieved through engagement of the citizens in the e-government rollout and subsequent adoption. E-Government implementation may meet initial citizen resistance, require cultural sensitivity, and change the way citizens and governments relate to each other. The citizens are not always trustful of the governments with issues such as corruption, inefficiencies in government transactions, or wasteful expenditures making the relationship between government and citizens more complicated. Other issues such as individual attitudes, privacy concerns (especially for information captured through website which can be used for other purposes by the government), or level of e-government adoption can also cloud the success of e-government. Considering that transformational role of e-government cannot be fully achieved without participation by the citizens in the e-government process, it is critical to look at the e-government process and its success from citizens’ perspective. It is an opportune time to reflect on the research that has shaped our understanding of e-government from the view point of citizens and develop research models to guide e-government initiatives in the future. There is a need to examine how citizens perceive e-government initiatives, what is the level of citizens’ involvement and satisfaction with e-government implementation, and what issues and challenges still remain unaddressed. The objective of this special issue of JOEUC is to provide an outlet for publishing original research highlighting citizens’ perspectives on e-government development and implementation across the world. These perspectives can range from adoption of e-government to satisfaction with e-government services, and to challenges in e-government participation. We seek to invite papers that address various aspects of e-government projects from a theoretical, conceptual, or empirical perspective to set the stage for future research direction in citizen centric e-government efforts. Both quantitative as well as qualitative studies on e-government from developed and developing countries will be encouraged. Contributed papers may deal with, but are not limited to: • Theories and conceptual models informing citizens adoption of e-government • Theories and models of citizens’ satisfaction with e-government implementations • Citizens participation in e-democracy and e-governance • Cross country comparison of citizens perspectives on e-government • Success factors for e-government from citizens’ perspectives • E-government readiness of citizens across countries • Trust and privacy issues in e-government adoption by citizens • Cultural factors in e-government adoption • Interaction and service models for e-government delivery to citizens • Citizens expectations from e-government • Successful or failed citizen centric e-government case studies • Emerging opportunities for citizen centric services through e-government • Socio-economic impacts of e-government • Government and citizens’ relationship transformation frameworks based on e-government *Important dates:* Two-page proposal by authors (optional) May 15, 2010 Deadline for submission: August 31, 2010 Initial decision and revisions sent to authors October 31, 2010 Deadline for revised papers: December 15, 2010 Notification of final acceptances: January 31, 2011 Deadline for final versions: February 28, 2011 Tentative Publication Date: December, 2011 ** * * * * To submit a paper, please email Dr. Vikas Jain at vjain(a)ut.edu.

One typical example is education. The impact of distance learning to traditional universities in particular allows educational professionals to rethink about how to efficiently and effectively using multimedia technologies to improve instruction, as well as to encourage students to learn. Although multimedia technologies have already been used widely in e-learning, various considerations should be carefully addressed from both pedagogical and technological perspectives, to ensure the successful incorporation of these technologies in e-learning. This ACM workshop aims to discuss problems, current studies, and solutions in how to use multimedia and communication technologies to improve e-learning. Especially, presentations should address the difference between using and without using multimedia technologies in education. Practical solutions are encouraged, although pedagogical theories may be used to support the solutions. The conference proceedings will be published by ACM. Topics of interests include but are not limited to the following: · Efficient Authoring Methods for Instruction Creation/Generation · Management of Multimedia Learning Objects · Multimedia Edutainment Technologies · Multimedia Technologies for Collaborative Learning · Multimedia Technologies for Game-based Learning · Multimedia Technologies for Mobile/Situated Learning · Multimodal Interactions for e-Learning · Pedagogical Issues of using Multimedia Technologies in e-Learning · Real-time Delivery of Multimedia Instructions · Retrieval of Multimedia Learning Objects · Server and System Architecture for Multimedia Instructions · Usability Study of Multimedia Learning Objects * * *Submission Details* Each paper for submission should be formatted using the ACM Proceedings templates <http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates>.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] Call for papers: the 5th International Workshop on Ontology Content 2010 Datum: Tue, 18 May 2010 06:11:17 +0200 Von: Paolo Ceravolo <paolo.ceravolo(a)unimi.it> An: undisclosed-recipients:; The 5th International Workshop on *Ontology Content * *Special tracks on: * *Towards Web 3.0 | e-Governance* *OnToContent 2010* Oct 25 - 29, 2010 Crete Part of the OTM (OTM'2010 <http://www.onthemove-conferences.org/>) Proceedings will be published by Springer LNCS <http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/index.html> *Call for Papers* Approaching to the twentieth anniversary, the WWW today is a mature environment supporting the development of distributed applications without imposing any particular limitation. Technologies, methodologies and standards converge toward full operational capabilities by being service oriented, with a focus on statelessness, low coupled, modular, and semantic interoperable. In this context the issues related to the quality of data and process representation are crucial, as it is required to deal with data that are valuable, expressive, shareable e and manipulable at the same time. In this context the role of good quality ontology (i.e. good quality conceptualizations, encoded in portable and extensible format) acquires more and more relevance. This workshop aims to focus on content issues, such as methodologies and tools concerned with modeling good ontologies, approaches to ontology content evaluation, quality measures, ontology content management (e.g. metadata, libraries, and registration), ontology documentation, etc. The workshop also aims to give a special attention to ontology content issues in: Business, human resources and employment, healthcare and life sciences, and Web 3.0. We welcome papers and (past/planned) project descriptions that discuss ontology aspects, particularly: Research papers presenting theoretical solutions, but with a clear illustration on how these solutions can be applied in industry. Position papers presenting opinions on some aspect of ontology practice, or describing work that is still in progress, but sufficiently mature to warrant attention. Business experience and case studies specifying requirements, challenges, or opportunities of modeling and applying ontologies in industry. *Topics* *Methodology and Engineering* Modeling and engineering methodologies. Ontology design patterns. Ontological usability and usefulness. Ontology metadata, and libraries. Ontology interoperability. Ontology reusability. Ontology evolution and versioning. Methodologies for consensus reaching. Ontology tools. Good, best, and bad practices Experiences/empirical results on ontology management. *Towards Web 3.0* Lessons from Web 2.0 for ontology engineering. Participatory and evolutionary approaches to ontology engineering. Lightweight ontology formalisms (e.g., SKOS) and microformats. Conflict resolution and self-adaptation in ad hoc networks. Experiences on lightweight vs. heavy-weight ontologies. Semantic distance and similarity. Semantics in sensor networks. *e-Governance Ontology* Legal/legislation ontologies. Local government ontologies. Location ontology (real-estate). Person/Identity ontology. Ontologies for digital certificates. Ontologies for digital libraries. Ontologies for public utilities. Ontologies for emergence management. Ontologies for healthcare and life science. Ontologies for modeling business process. Ontologies for business process analysis Ontologies for supply chains management. Ontologies for risk analysis. Ontology enabled service orchestration. *Submissions** * We invite (A) Research papers describing original studies of no more than 10 pages; (B) Position papers presenting opinions or work in progress of no more than 6 pages; and (C) Business experience and case studies of no more than 8 pages. All submitted papers will be evaluated by at least three members of the program committee, based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of expression. Detailed formatting instructions can be found at: http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html The final proceedings will be published by Springer Verlag as LNCS.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] CFP deadline approaching for Workshop on Traceability and Compliance of Semi-Structured Processes (TC4SP’10) Datum: Mon, 17 May 2010 17:41:31 -0400 Von: Aleksander Slominski <aslom(a)cs.indiana.edu> Antwort an: aslom(a)cs.indiana.edu Organisation: "ICCSA" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> Submissions deadline: May 21, 2010 ==== CALL FOR PAPERS First International Workshop on Traceability and Compliance of Semi-Structured Processes (TC4SP’10) http://www.bpm2010.org/conference-program/workshops/tc4sp2010/ Workshop Website: http://cgi.cs.indiana.edu/~dsiweb/tc4sp10/index.html Submission System: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=tc4sp2010 Held in Conjunction with BPM 2010, The 8th International Conference Business Process Management Hoboken, New Jersey, September 13, 2010 Background Semi-structured processes are those business or scientific processes whose lifecycle is not fully driven by a formal process model. Often, an informal description of the process is available in the form of a process graph, flow chart or an abstract state diagram, but the execution is not completely controlled by a central entity (such as a workflow engine), if at all. Instead, a variety of IT and human centric mechanisms are used, including email, content management systems, web-based forms, custom applications or a combination thereof. Examples of semi-structured processes are collaborative and case oriented processes as well as most end to end line of business processes in commercial enterprises. Even when there is a formally managed process in place, there are often exceptional situations that fall outside the purview of the workflow engine, making measuring compliance against desired business & regulatory policies difficult. In spite of the widespread adoption of BPM technology, semi-structured processes are commonplace in today's commercial and governmental organizations. Semi-structured processes, on the other hand, lack most of the advantages provided by business process management systems (BPMSs). In particular, one major advantage of process management is oversight through the inherent provenance of data and actions. Being able to answer the question 'Who did what when and how?' makes processes transparent and reproducible, supports compliance monitoring and root cause analysis, and provides the means for deep mining of activities and information. The goal of this workshop is to investigate how to extend the oversight, traceability and compliance management of traditional BPMSs to semi-structured processes through techniques and algorithms to gather, correlate, analyze, and persist provenance data of processes execution. The workshop aims to bring together practitioners and researchers from different communities - such as business process management, scientific workflow, complex event and compliance monitoring, data and process mining - who share an interest in semi-structured processes. We encourage submissions that report the current state of research in the area and share practical experiences. Topics The list of topics that are relevant to this workshop includes the following, but is not limited to: - Methodologies for capturing, querying and processing provenance, including provenance of business process and scientific workflows. - Management and implementation of compliance requirements. - Provenance systems that enable traceability and compliance. - Compliance and performance monitoring of collaborative processes. - Legal audit support and root cause analysis. - Data and process mining of provenance traces. - Emerging standards and provenance models. - Management and retention of process traces. Paper submission Two types of submissions will be accepted: full papers up to 12 pages reporting completed research, and short papers up to 6 pages reporting on-going and preliminary work. Authors are encouraged to plan for a demonstration of their work during the workshop. Papers should be submitted electronically in PDF format at: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=tc4sp2010 . The workshop proceedings will be published in the Springer Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing series and submissions should use LNBIP format (see http://www.springer.com/series/7911 for details).

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] 3rd CfP: BPMN 2010 Datum: Mon, 17 May 2010 13:04:17 +0200 Von: Weidlich, Matthias <Matthias.Weidlich(a)hpi.uni-potsdam.de> An: 'wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de' <wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de> -------------------------------------------------------- BPMN 2010 - 2nd International Workshop on BPMN October 13-14, 2010, Hasso Plattner Institute, Potsdam, Germany 3rd Call for Papers www.bpmn2010.org -------------------------------------------------------- The workshop provides a forum for academics and practitioners that share an interest in business process modeling using the Business Process Modeling Notation. Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) experiences huge uptake in both academia and industry. It is seen by many as the de-facto standard for business process modeling. It has become very popular with business analysts, tool vendors, practitioners, and end users. BPMN promises to bridge business and IT and brings process design and implemented closer together. To bring this expressive process language to its full potential, challenging research questions have to be tackled. Papers on ongoing and completed research, as well as reports on practical applications and empirical findings are invited. Studies on the transfer of research findings obtained for other process modeling languages to BPMN are encouraged. Topics include, but are not limited to: * BPMN and process modelling methodologies * Consistency between BPMN model types * Execution Semantics of BPMN * BPMN modelling extensions and language profiles * Verification of BPMN models * Quality of BPMN models * Empirical research on BPMN * BPMN and modelling guidelines, best practices * Integration of BPMN and other process languages * Labelling consistency in BPMN * Process execution aspects * Enterprise applications and BPMN * Service composition and BPMN * BPMN and electronic commerce processes * BPMN and e-government * User experience studies * Smart BPMN Editors * Future directions of BPMN Important Dates * Paper submission deadline: May 30, 2010 * Author notification: Jun 30, 2010 * Camera-ready copy: Jul 30, 2010 * Workshop: Oct 13-14, 2010 Submissions Submitted papers will be evaluated on the basis of significance, originality and technical quality. BPMN 2010 proceedings will be published in Springer's Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing (LNBIP). Papers of up to 15 pages length are invited. They should clearly establish the research contribution and the relation to previous research. Members of an international program committee will review all submissions. Each paper will be reviewed by three PC members guaranteeing that only papers presenting high quality and innovative research and practical issues in areas relevant to the workshop theme will be accepted.
