Fwd: [WI] ICSOC 2011 - The Nineth International Conference on Service Oriented Computing
by Gustaf Neumann 05 Feb '11

05 Feb '11

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [WI] ICSOC 2011 - The Nineth International Conference on Service Oriented Computing Date: Thu, 3 Feb 2011 18:12:30 +0100 From: Bedini, Ivan (Ivan) <ivan.bedini(a)alcatel-lucent.com> To: wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de <wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de> *************************************************************************** The Nineth International Conference on Service Oriented Computing Paphos, Cyprus December 5-8, 2011 http://www.icsoc.org/ CALL FOR PAPERS *************************************************************************** THE CONFERENCE Since 2003, The International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing (ICSOC) has been the main forum for academics and industry researchers and developers to report and share groundbreaking works in service-oriented computing. ICSOC aims at fostering cross-community scientific excellence and collaboration by the gathering of experts from various disciplines, such as business process management, distributed systems, computer networks, ubiquitous computing, grid computing, service science, management science, and software engineering. Service innovation is key to the future of business. Even in traditionally manufacturing-driven industries, such as IT, the importance of service has surpassed most other corporate competences. The Internet and Web-based services create ever more opportunities for service innovation. Service science is an interdisciplinary approach to the study, design, and implementation of service systems - the specific arrangements of people, organizations, technologies, and information that co-create value. Service systems are often IT-enabled and knowledge-intensive, and can span different real or virtual organizations. In this multidisciplinary context, researchers and practitioners in management, social sciences, and computer sciences are all working together to promote and facilitate service innovation. While keeping its roots in scientific excellence and technical depth of service technology, ICSOC 2011 aims at examining the research opportunities that are offered by the possible blend of service-oriented computing with cloud computing. In cloud computing, software platforms, applications and data reside in providers' servers called clouds. By making clouds ubiquitously available, a more rapid and low cost access to a shared pool of virtualized and configurable computing resources is offered to enterprises that would like to diversify their application computation and data storage strategies. "Service-oriented and cloud computing" is this time the main theme for ICSOC 2011. Questions like how does service-oriented computing support the transition to cloud-based solutions, and how does it support Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS) models are highlighted for researchers to be discussed during the conference. ICSOC 2011 will bring together scientists, engineers, and practitioners from multiple disciplines to focus on service-oriented, cloud-based innovative for the 21st century enterprises. The conference will feature research and industry presentations, keynote presentations, workshops, demonstrations, tutorials, and a PhD track. Please refer to www.icsoc.org for calls for workshops, demonstrations, and tutorials.

Fwd: [computational.science] CFP: International Workshop on Secure Software Engineering (SecSE'11)
by Gustaf Neumann 05 Feb '11

05 Feb '11

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [computational.science] CFP: International Workshop on Secure Software Engineering (SecSE'11) Date: Fri, 04 Feb 2011 16:48:36 +0100 From: Martin Gilje Jaatun <atc08(a)atilf.no> Organization: "ICCSA" To: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> Fifth International Workshop on Secure Software Engineering (SecSE 2011) http://www.sintef.org/secse In conjunction with ARES 2011 August 22-26, 2011 Vienna, Austria http://www.ares-conference.eu/conf/ Call for Papers (submission deadline: March 1st) Introduction ============ Software security is about protecting information and ensuring that systems continue to function correctly even when under malicious attack. The traditional approach of securing a system has been to create defensive walls such as intrusion detection systems and firewalls around it, but there are always cracks in these walls, and thus such measures are no longer sufficient by themselves. We need to be able to build better, more robust and more _inherently secure_ systems, and we should strive to achieve these qualities in all software systems, not just in the ones that _obviously_ need special protection. This workshop will focus on techniques, experiences and lessons learned for building secure and dependable software. Topics ====== Suggested topics include, but are not limited to: - Secure architecture and design - Security in agile software development - Aspect-oriented software development for secure software - Security requirements - Risk management in software projects - Secure implementation - Secure deployment - Testing for security - Quantitative measurement of security properties - Static and dynamic analysis for security - Verification and assurance techniques for security properties - Security and usability - Design and deployment of secure services - Secure composition and adaptation of services - Teaching secure software development - Experience reports on successfully attuning developers to secure software engineering - Lessons learned Important dates: ================ - Submission Deadline: March 1st, 2011 - Author Notification: April 18th 2011 - Author Registration: June 1st 2011 - Proceedings Version: June 1st 2011 - Conference/ Workshop: August 22nd -26th 2011 Submission Guidelines ===================== Authors are invited to submit papers in IEEE Computer Society Proceedings Manuscripts style (two columns, single-spaced, including figures and references, using 10 pt fonts, and number each page). Please consult the IEEE CS Author Guidelines at the following web page: http://www2.computer.org/portal/web/cscps/formatting We solicit the submission of academic workshop papers (6 pages) representing original, previously unpublished work. Submitted papers will be carefully evaluated based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of exposition. Duplicate submissions are not allowed. A submission is considered to be a duplicate submission if it is submitted to other conferences/workshops/journals or if it has been already accepted to be published in other conferences/workshops/journals. Duplicate submissions thus will be automatically rejected without review. Contact author must provide the following information: Paper title, authors' names, affiliations, postal address, phone, fax, and e-mail address of the author(s), about 200-250 word abstract, and about five keywords. Paper registration and submission is done through the ARES Paper Management System at the following address: http://stdev.ifs.tuwien.ac.at/ares2011/ Submission of a paper implies that should the paper be accepted, at least one of the authors will register for the ARES conference and present the paper in the workshop. Accepted papers will be given guidelines in preparing and submitting the final manuscript(s) together with the notification of acceptance. New for 2011: ARES and SecSE now require anonymized submissions, so please remove all author names and obvious self references from your submission. Publication =========== All accepted papers will be published as ISBN proceedings by the IEEE Computer Society, and will be available online through IEEE Xplore (EI indexing). Journal special issue: Distinguished papers submitted to SecSE will be invited for possible publication in the International Journal of Secure Software Engineering (ISSN 1947-3036 - http://www.igi-global.com/ijsse).

Fwd: [AISWorld] CFP: ES Adoption and Business Models - AMCIS 2011
by Gustaf Neumann 04 Feb '11

04 Feb '11

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP: ES Adoption and Business Models - AMCIS 2011 Date: Fri, 04 Feb 2011 15:18:55 -0500 From: narcyz roztocki <roztockn(a)newpaltz.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org CALL FOR PAPERS 17th Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS) Detroit, Michigan August 4 - 7, 2011 Detroit Marriott Hotel http://amcis2011.aisnet.org/ Mini-track title: Enterprise Systems Adoption and Business Models Track: Enterprise Systems and Organizational Issues Complete Papers Due: February 28, 2011 Enterprise systems (ES), extremely complicated software packages designed for integrating data flow across an entire company, emerged as a result of evolution from MRP, MRP II and ERP systems. Stepwise, the evolving systems covered more and more areas of the company?s operation and presently they extend over the organizational boundaries and support inter-organizational activities. Currently, ES are expected to effectively support modern organizations that operate in a dynamic and turbulent business environment, experience the consequences of globalization, face mergers and takeovers, and may take part in various business alliances. Frequently, the adoption of an ES is an enormous challenge for an organization which stems from the system complexity, organizational context and people involved in the implementation project. Usually, ES adoption is a long and multi-stage process during which various problems and complications may occur. Moreover, the ES adoption projects typically involve a great number of stakeholders who represent different company departments, various organizational hierarchies, and often external companies operating in various industries. These stakeholders may have conflicting interests and their own definition of project success. Overall, ES implementation projects tend to be very unique and challenging endeavors. Providers of enterprise systems for a long time relied on strong revenues from maintenance fees besides their revenues from licenses. Nowadays, shorter product life cycles, rising consulting revenues, Open Source Software and SaaS are impacting their business models. ES providers have to face the challenge of delivering systems which are highly customizable software products able to fit the needs of a variety of adopting companies. This might be important since, as prior research suggests, the issue of alignment between ES and adopting organizations is one of the determinants of successful enterprise system implementation. This mini-track invites papers that examine various aspects related to the determinants of ES success and business models. Both empirical and theoretical papers are invited. The general research questions addressed in this mini-track can be formulated as follows: What are the mechanisms determining successful ES adoption? What are the underlying business models of companies delivering successfully adaptable ES? What kind of business models exist? Suggested topics of interest include but are not limited to: - motivation and justification for ES adoption, - alignment between ES and adopting organization, - barriers and impediments to ES adoption success, - risk factors in ES adoption, - critical failure factors for ES adoption, - critical success factors for ES adoption, - understanding of ES adoption success, - evaluation and benchmarking of ES projects, - multi-cultural and multi-national issues, - multiple stakeholder perspective in ES adoption and use, - business model frameworks, - impact of new trends within the software industry on business models, - business model innovation for standard software companies, - implications of shorter product life cycles on business models, - SaaS related business models, - open source software related business models.

Fwd: [AISWorld] IWSSA 2011 -- Extended Deadline
by Gustaf Neumann 03 Feb '11

03 Feb '11

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] IWSSA 2011 -- Extended Deadline Datum: Thu, 3 Feb 2011 12:59:48 +0100 (CET) Von: Kawtar Benghazi <benghazi(a)ugr.es> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org --------------- IWSSA 2011 - Deadline Extension----------------------- 9th INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON SYSTEM/SOFTWARE ARCHITECTURES (IWSSA'11) http://www.ugr.es/~iwssa/ 20-21th June, 2011, London, England (pre-conference workshop of CAiSE 2011) __________________________ THEME Diverse interacting information and software systems are needed by cities conducting large-scale events such as the Olympics, Worldcup Football, and the like. Some of these systems monitor and control utilities required for hosting the events including electricity, water supply, gas supply, and the like, while others are used to monitor and control systems with wider geographic spread such as air traffic, sea and river traffic, and highway transportation systems. However, all these systems must be designed to operate collaboratively so that event organizers receive latest scenarios of the environment of the games and take appropriate actions which may include change of venue, postponement, or even cancellation of events. This is particularly relevant in view of threats to life and society in modern times. However, diverse information systems that monitor and control critical infrastructures do not collaborate by accident: collaboration, interoperability, reliability, and security need to be designed into such systems. Since architecture development is usually the first step in system or software design, designers need to address these non-functional requirements, which are sometimes conflicting or synergistic, in the architectures themselves. In particular, non-functional and development requirements, and constraints take special relevance due to the new environments in which the systems themselves have to operate, i.e., some kind of combination of internet and pervasive systems. In this workshop, contributions addressing the explicit connection between requirements and architecture models through innovative techniques, methodologies and processes will be presented and discussed. ________________________________________ TOPICS The topics, with special emphasis on architectures satisfying requirements in specific domains, include but are not limited to: • architecting critical systems for diversity and collaborative operationality • roles of enterprise/system architectures • requirements and software architectures for specific application domains and case studies, especially, complex systems that use technology in organizational and social contexts • architectural models in model-driven approaches • traceability of requirements in architectures • engineering quality in architectures to include non-functional requirements such as security, interoperability, adaptability, responsiveness, ubiquity, reliability, dependability, self-healing ability, performance, usability, safety, etc. • methodologies and techniques applied to the construction of high-quality system/software architectures • models and design theories for software architectures • software architecture maintenance, evolution and management • validation of requirements and verification techniques of properties in architectural design • metrics and architectures • service-oriented / object-oriented / aspect-oriented / goal-oriented / agent-oriented / scenario-based approaches to enterprise/software architecture development • COTS / GOTS / Component / Middleware-Based development for architectures • Ontology Driven Architectures ________________________________________ PAPERS Papers should explore open research problems, as well as provide advances in the areas of architectures, requirements and development. Papers submitted to IWSSA’11 must not have been accepted for publication elsewhere or be under review for another workshop or conference. All papers will be peer-reviewed by the PC members. Two types of papers in English are invited from academia and industry: • Short paper: maximum 6 pages (according to workshop instructions) for position paper or work-in-progress • Full paper: maximum 12 pages (according to workshop instructions) for research results or experience Accepted papers will be published in a LNBIP Proceedings Volume by Springer Verlag. Failure to commit to presentation at the conference automatically excludes a paper from the proceedings. Camera Ready papers must comply with the Springer formatting rules. Further authoring instructions are available at: http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-791344-0 After each workshop edition, IWSSA chairs have edited a special issue in a Software Engineering journal with significantly improved and extended versions of papers accepted. Previous special issues related to IWSSA have been published in the Journal of Science of Computer Programming (four special issues), the Journal of Systems Architecture, Computer Standards& Interfaces and the Journal of Systems and Software. This time again, authors of selected quality papers, from those presented at IWSSA'11, will be invited to submit significantly extended versions to the review process for a special issue of an International Journal, agreement in course with the journal publisher. ________________________________________ DEADLINES Paper Submission Deadline: 16th of February, 2011 (Extended) Acceptance Notification: 16th of March, 2011 Camera Ready Due: 23rd March, 2011 IWSSA workshop: 20th – 21th June 2011 ________________________________________ WORKSHOP CO-CHAIRS Lawrence Chung, University of Texas at Dallas (USA), chung(a)utdallas.edu Nary Subramanian, University of Texas at Tyler (USA), nsubramanian(a)uttyler.edu Manuel Noguera, University of Granada (Spain), mnoguera(a)ugr.es (contact co-chair) Kawtar Benghazi, University of Granada (Spain), benghazi(a)ugr.es (contact co-chair)

Fwd: [wkwi] AMCIS 2011: Minitrack "Advancing Enterprise Resource Planningthrough Technology"

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [wkwi] AMCIS 2011: Minitrack "Advancing Enterprise Resource Planningthrough Technology" Date: Thu, 3 Feb 2011 10:48:56 +0100 (CET) From: wi-sek <wi-sek(a)europa-uni.de> Reply-To: postmaster(a)idefix.buva.sowi.uni-bamberg.de To: undisclosed-recipients:; Liebe Kolleginnen und Kollegen, wir möchten Sie gern auf den Minitrack "Advancing Enterprise Resource Planning through Technology" im Rahmen des Tracks "Enterprise Systems" auf der AMCIS 2011 in Detroit, MI, USA aufmerksam machen. Der Minitrack thematisiert Fortschritte und Weiterentwicklungen auf dem Gebiet des Enterprise Resource Planning, die durch neue Technologien ermöglicht werden. Beiträge, die dem konstruktionsorientierten Paradigma folgen, sind willkommen. Deadline für Einreichungen: 28. Februar 2011 AMCIS-Website: http://www.amcis2011.aisnet.org/ Mit freundlichen Grüßen Karl Kurbel, Universität Frankfurt (Oder) Jorge Marx Gomez, Universität Oldenburg ********************************************************* CALL FOR PAPERS - 17th Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS) Minitrack "Advancing Enterprise Resource Planning through Technology" August 4-7, 2011, Detroit, MI, USA ********************************************************** Enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems have evolved from large monolithic systems to more and more fragmented systems distributing just about any aspect of a system: functions, processes, data, hardware and infrastructure. This change has gone hand in hand with the incorporation of more and more business functionality into ERP. Starting from material requirements planning (MRP) and manufacturing resource planning (MRP II), the financial and human resources functions as well as executive information systems and eventually long-term strategic planning support for senior management have been included. These developments have made an ERP system "the" core information system of an organization -- and the technological backbone that other information systems need to collaborate with. ERP related functionality such as supply chain management (SCM ), customer relationship management (CRM) and supplier relationship management (SRM) is either integrated, embedded or closely coupled with an ERP system. Software, hardware and networking technology has enabled the increased importance of ERP systems, but it also posed technological and managerial challenges. In contrast to the early ERP monoliths, we nowadays have distributed architectures -- both conventional in-house architectures such as client-server and service oriented architectures (SOA) as well as externally hosted architectures used by application-service-providing (ASP) and software-on-demand solutions. With the appearance of mobile commerce, software-as-a-service (SaaS) approaches and cloud computing, additional challenges have emerged. Technologies such as radio frequency identification (RFID) have opened up new opportunities for an organization to act and react in real-time. RFID, smart items and the "Internet of things" impose new requirements on ERP systems, such as being capable of context-aware information processing. For the new technologies to be successfully implemented, security issues need to be resolved and a satisfactory level of trust in the technologies has to be created. The major vendors' inability to generate significant revenue from software-on-demand solutions indicates that businesses are not ready yet to adopt out-of-house ERP solutions on a large-scale basis. The hurdle is likely to be even higher when anonymous providers of infrastructure and services come into the game, as is the case with cloud computing. Organizations seem to be hesitant about having their mission-critical business processes run somewhere out in a "cloud" and maintaining their core business data in a nirvana. The rationale of this minitrack is exploration of new technologies that can further enhance enterprise resource planning. We invite papers that pursue a constructionist approach to information systems development, following an engineering-like or design-science research style. Papers presenting the development of prototypes as a proof of concept are welcome. Technology-oriented papers should give consideration to the business value of the proposed approaches or solutions. *Suggested Topics* ·Architectures for ERP and related business information systems ·ERP systems based on service oriented architectures (SOA) ·Software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions for ERP and related areas ·Orchestrating an ERP system from web services/enterprise services ·ERP on demand for small and medium-size enterprises ·Federated ERP systems, standardization and collaboration issues ·ERP and cloud computing ·Impact of virtualization and infrastructure-as-a-service on ERP ·Integrating RFID solutions with ERP ·Impact of the "Internet of things" on future ERP systems ·Integrating legacy ERP systems with new components using state-of-the-art technologies ·Mobile ERP and related areas such as mobile SCM, mobile CRM and mobile SRM ·Security issues and trust in new technologies for enterprise resource planning *Minitrack Co-chairs* Karl E.

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP: Special track on "T-Shaped Professionals & Researchers" as part of the 2nd International Research Symposium in Service Management (IRSSM-2) Date: Wed, 2 Feb 2011 15:07:48 -0700 From: Haluk Demirkan <Haluk.Demirkan(a)asu.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Dear Colleagues, Hello! We are serving as co-chairs for the special track on "T-Shaped Professionals& Researchers" as part of the 2nd International Research Symposium in Service Management (IRSSM-2) in Yogyakarta-Indonesia, 26-30 July 2011. My co-chairs and I would like to invite you to consider submitting a paper to our track. The deadline for submitting an abstract (500 words) is coming closer: February 15, 2011. The goal of this special track is to explore the challenges, issues and opportunities related to the service professionals, from conceptualization to practical implementation. We are interested in novel education and research approaches to establish non-silo, T-shape professionals. We thank you, in advance, for your valuable contribution to IRSSM-2. Please let us know if you have any questions or need additional information. We look forward to receiving your submission! Best Regards, Track Co-Chairs: Haluk Demirkan (Haluk.demirkan(a)asu.edu), Wendy Murphy and Hossein S. Zadeh (hossein.zadeh(a)rmit.edu.au) Senior Advisors: James C. Spohrer and Jay Kandampully Thinking about the Shape of Professionals: Exploring the Cost and Benefits of Educating Professionals with Different Shapes I-shaped professionals may be very good as a "lone" innovator, but not so good at collaboration. Nicholas Donofrio, retired IBM Executive put it this way... "The kind of people who will be best able to seize these opportunities are those I call "T-shaped" as opposed to "I-shaped." I-shaped people have great credentials, great educations, and deep knowledge-deep but narrow. The geniuses who win Nobel prizes are "I-shaped," as are most of the best engineers and scientists. But the revolutionaries who have driven most recent innovation and who will drive nearly all of it in the future are "T-shaped." That is, they have their specialties-areas of deep expertise-but on top of that they boast a solid breadth, an umbrella if you will, of wide-ranging knowledge and interests. It is the ability to work in an interdisciplinary fashion and to see how different ideas, sectors, people, and markets connect. Natural-born "T's are perhaps rare, but I believe people can be trained to be T-shaped. One problem is that our educational system is still intent on training more "I's. We need to change that." Some big unanswered questions are: How can we assess or measure the shape of an individual? How does the shape of an individual relate to career success in different types of job roles? For different types of organizations, some innovative and some doing more routine processes, what is the ideal mixture of professionals of different shapes? At the national level, what populations of shapes allow for both efficiency and innovation? How does knowledge of disciplines, real-world systems, cultures, book knowledge, and real world experience, all come to play in the cost of producing individuals with particular shapes, and then come together again in the context of on the job performance in populations of people with different shapes? Key Dates for This Track Abstract Submissions due to Track Chairs: February 15, 2011 Acceptance Notification for initial abstract: March 1, 2011 Final Papers Due: March 25, 2011 Possible topics of applied, field and empirical research include, but are not limited to: * Pedagogies * Curriculum design and delivery * Issues, challenges, opportunities * Transformation processes * Sample curricula * Service Science, Management, Engineering and Design * Business process integration and management of services * Service operations * Incentives and motivations * Theories and approaches for integrating and/or sourcing services computing and automated business process management * Services innovation& management * Risk management or legal aspects of services * Legal aspects of services * Service excellence and service productivity * Decision models and decision support systems for service-related management and operations * Other T-shape oriented professional/researcher development related topics Registration will be via the IRSSM-2 - http://irssm.upnyk.ac.id Submission Instructions: Prepare Manuscript according to (http://irssm.upnyk.ac.id/?q=node/4) Submit abstract by February 15, 2011 via email to hossein.zadeh(a)rmit.edu.au and/or Haluk.Demirkan(a)asu.edu Submission Guidelines: The track organizing committee invites a one page (MS Word, maximum 500 words - deadline for submission February 15, 2011) abstract submission, describing the work of researchers and practitioners in the field of T-shape professionals.
