Call for Participation
IFIP WG8.1 Working Conference on Method Engineering
Engineering Methods in the Service-Oriented Context
20 ? 22 April 2011, Paris, France
http://crinfo.univ-paris1.fr/ME11/
Early registration: 28 February 2011
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONFERENCE AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
Engineering methods, techniques and tools for the analysis, design and
evolution of Information Systems is one of the main IFIP WG 8.1 research
areas. Successful Working Conferences have been organized on this topic
in Atlanta in 1996, in Kanazawa in 2002 and in Geneva in 2007. The new
edition of the IFIP WG 8.1 Working Conference on Method Engineering aims
to create a dedicated forum where researchers and practitioners will
overview the evolution of the field, exchange research ideas and results
and discuss the future perspectives. The conference will be held in the
beautiful city of Paris in France. The conference program will feature
invited talks, paper presentations, interactive panel sessions and
tutorials. The format of a working conference provides the participants
an opportunity to have extensive and interactive paper discussions
featured by discussant reviews in plenary sessions.
CONFERENCE THEME
Over the last two decades the discipline of Method Engineering has
evolved from simple Ad-Hoc method construction to Situational and
Domain-Specific Method Engineering approaches as a response to the
increasing complexity and diversity of information systems developments.
Nowadays, the evolution of enterprise software and information systems
towards service-oriented architectures again asks for new ways of
working, thinking and designing systems that we could call now
service-oriented systems. New methods, techniques and tools based on the
concept of service and better fitting the current development situations
are under development and experimentation and are the main topic of this
conference. Besides, the notion of service is also emerging in the
domain of Method Engineering as a new type of method building block and
therefore becomes a new fundamental concept of the discipline.

CALL FOR PAPERS
9th Workshop on Intelligent Techniques for Web Personalization
& Recommender Systems
In conjunction with IJCAI 2011
July 16, 2011 - Barcelona, Spain
http://ls13-www.cs.uni-dortmund.de/homepage/itwp2011/index.shtml
Submission Deadline:April 10, 2011
======================================================================
Web Personalization and recommendation systems have been steadily
gaining ground as essential components of today's Web based
applications, including in e-commerce and customer relationship
management, in the delivery of business services, in providing support
for Web search and navigation, and in reducing cognitive overload in
information rich interactive social Web applications. The proliferation
of Web 2.0 applications has allowed users to go beyond simple consumers
of information and instead actively participate in shaping collaborative
environments in which users, resources, and user-provided content are
all networked together. This, in turn has increased the need for more
intelligent and personalized services that help users interact with and
navigate these complex information spaces. These include a new
generation of recommender systems that integrate multiple online
channels, are more scalable, are more adaptive, can better handle user
interactivity, and are more adept at user preference elicitation. To
achieve this, such applications must rely on intelligent techniques from
AI, machine learning, Web mining, statistics, and user modelling in
order to leverage all available data, including the usage and
click-stream data (reflecting user behaviour), the content and meta-data
associated with resources, semantic domain knowledge, user profile
information, and underlying network structures. Efficient and
intelligent techniques are needed to mine this data for actionable
knowledge, and to effectively use the discovered knowledge to enhance
the users' experience.
The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers and
practitioners From Web Mining, Web Personalization, Recommender Systems,
and User Modeling communities in order to foster an exchange of
information and ideas and to facilitate a discussion of current and
emerging topics related to the development of intelligent Web
personalization and Recommender Systems.

Over the past 15 years attitudes toward business processes have changed significantly within organizations. What started with Total Quality Management initiatives and continued through Business Process Reengineering (BPR) projects of the early1990s has evolved into a comprehensive management practice that permeates both the business and the technology side of organizations. Business Process Management (BPM) can be defined as methods and tools surrounding the definition, implementation, and improvement of lateral processes in organizations. BPM tools and techniques play a significant role in both intra-organizational and inter-organizational process design. As BPM continues to gain importance in todayís organization, an increasing number of studies detail efficiency, effectiveness and agility improvements resulting from process management initiatives. Innovative industrial implementations and applications of BPM methods and techniques are of much interest today, given their potential for bringing significant gains to the enterprise through the automated coordination of activities, process participants and the integration of applications.
This mini-track seeks contributions that discuss the management of business processes as well as technologies for process automation. We encourage submissions from both a managerial as well as a technical perspective.

In many areas of science, simulations and experiments begin to
generate many petabytes of data, with some sciences facing exabytes of
data near term. Similarly, the collection of information about the
Internet applications and users for a variety of purposes is
generating only more data. Our ability to manage, mine, analyze, and
visualize the data is fundamental to the knowledge discovery
process. That is, the value of data at extreme scale can be fully
realized only if we have an end-to-end solution, which demands a
collective, inter-disciplinary effort to develop.
This new symposium, held in conjunction with VisWeek 2011, aims at
bringing together domain scientists, data analytics and visualization
researchers, and users, and fostering the needed exchange to develop
the next-generation data-intensive analysis and visualization
technology. Attendees will be introduced to the latest and greatest
research innovations in large data management, analysis, and
visualization, learn how these innovations impact data intensive
computing and knowledge discovery, and also learn about the critical
issues in creating a complete solution through both invited and
contributed talks, panel discussion, and a large data visualization
contest that provides massive data and supercomputing time to
contestants. Paper submissions are solicited for a long paper event
that describes large data visualization techniques and systems, and a
short paper event for practitioners to describe and present their
large data visualization applications. Topic emphasis is on
algorithms, languages, systems and hardware that supports the analysis
and visualization of large data.
There are a variety of ways to participate in LDAV 2011 -- papers,
posters, and a vis contest. For details, please see http://www.ldav.org.
We hope to see you there!

CALL FOR PAPERS ICIS 2011 TRACK "KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT AND BUSINESS
INTELLIGENCE"
2011 International Conference on Information Systems (ICIS 2011)
December 4-7, 2011 (Sunday-Wednesday)
Shanghai International Convention Center (
http://www.shicc.net/english/Index.asp)
CHAIRS: Atreyi Kankanhalli and Michael Chau
DESCRIPTION
Advances in ICT, data explosion and information overload, employee
turnover, and the need for organizations to better utilize their
intellectual capital have led to increased interest in knowledge management
(KM) and business intelligence (BI) domains. With massive amounts of
information being added to corporate databases and the Internet every day,
effective and efficient knowledge discovery and its management has become
imperative. Thus, organisations are increasingly motivated to develop
systems to leverage their knowledge and information for intelligent
decision making and competitive advantage. These include diverse
technologies ranging from corporate yellow pages, to social computing
tools, to advanced web mining systems.
Yet, there is much that remains to be understood about KM and BI systems
such as how to develop the justification for these systems, dealing with
different kinds of knowledge, integrating with existing systems, enabling
processes and structures, and assessing outcomes in different
organizational contexts. This track thus wishes to explore managerial,
technical, and behavioral issues relating to KM and BI systems including
strategy, design, development, and outcomes. We welcome both theoretical
and empirical papers that employ diverse methodologies and philosophical
perspectives to significantly advance our knowledge in these areas.
SUGGESTED TOPICS
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* KM and BI strategies
* Design, development and use of KM systems
* Knowledge discovery and sharing in organizations
* KM in virtual teams and distributed contexts
* Knowledge exchange in communities of practice
* Capturing and sharing knowledge in social networks
* KM processes and structures
* KM and KM systems impacts
* Inter-organizational KM systems
* KM culture and environment
* Data, text, and Web mining for BI
* Web intelligence and Web analytics

APOLOGIES FOR CROSS-POSTING!
2nd Call for Papers PACIS 2011 Track: "Online Social Networking – Acting
in a Virtually Connected World"
Chairs: Remko Helms and Sharman Lichtenstein
DESCRIPTION
Online social networking and social media are ubiquitous in today's
society and their impact is undeniable.
For example, the social-networking site Facebook counts more than 400
million active users (source: Facebook),
exceeding the population of USA. Online encyclopaedia Wikipedia
contains more than 15 million articles
(source: Wikipedia), more than any offline encyclopaedia. Further,
technology-supported social networks have
penetrated many aspects of our daily lives and have been established for
diverse purposes ranging from
e-dating (Match), to multimedia sharing (YouTube), to professional
networking (Xing), and from
friendship/blogging sites (MySpace), to online gaming and virtual worlds
(World of Warcraft). Individuals
in their roles as employees and, more recently, their organizations have
also started to adopt the concept
of social networks both intra- and inter-organizationally. Despite the
many advantages of social networking
and social media, their proliferation pose new challenges for both
individuals and organizations. Notably,
much information is disclosed, either unintentionally or intentionally,
that could negatively affect an
individual or organization. Many people and organizations are still
adapting to these challenges and exploring
how they should behave online while experiencing the sometimes-negative
consequences of the information they
disclose. Not participating in online social network is not an option
however, because others will and not
reacting to shared information could, for instance, significantly damage
the reputation of a person or
organization. This track seeks to explore issues relating to the
development and use of social networking
communities, how and why participants are drawn to them, for what
purpose such networks are used, what
constitutes a successful or failed network and related risks. We welcome
both theoretical and empirical
papers that employ diverse methodologies and philosophical perspectives.
TOPICS
Topics for this track might include, but are not limited to:
* Information disclosure in online social networks
* Expertise seeking in online social networks
* Enablers and inhibitors of online social networks
* New qualitative approaches to study digital enabled social networks
* Interplay between online and offline social networks
* Data and opinion mining in online social networks * Social exchange
and Social Capital
* Social Network Analysis (SNA) studies
* Critical mass and sustainability of online social networks
* Business value of online social networking tools
* Collaboration and innovation in online social networks
* Online social networking strategies and policies
* Innovative business applications of online crowd sourcing
* Security and privacy risks for online social networking
* Ethical and legal issues of online behaviour/presence with social media
* Lifestyle impacts of online social networks
* Power, politics and trust in online social networks
* Cultural differences in online social media use
* Longitudinal research studies (network evolution)

The 2011 IEEE / WIC / ACM International Conferences on
WEB INTELLIGENCE and INTELLIGENT AGENT TECHNOLOGY
22 - 27 August 2011
Campus Scientifique de la Doua, Lyon, France
--------------------
WI-IAT Summer School
26-27 August 2011
--------------------
CALL FOR TUTORIALS
-----------------------------------
The summer school of the 2011 IEEE/WIC/ACM International Joint
Conference on Web Intelligence (WI 2011) and Intelligent Agent
Technology (IAT 2011) will take place on August 26-27 2011 in Lyon (France).
This summer school aims providing tutorials both on Web Intelligence (in
the context of WI 2011) and Intelligent Agent Technology (in the context
of IAT 2011). It intends to bring together PhD students, lecturers, as
well as researchers and practitioners who are interested in the
fundamental roles, interactions as well as practical impacts of
Artificial Intelligence engineering and Advanced Information Technology
on the next generation of Web systems. In these tutorials AI-engineering
is a general term that refers to a new area, slightly beyond traditional
AI: brain informatics, human level AI, intelligent agents, social
network intelligence and classical areas, such as knowledge engineering,
knowledge representation, planning, knowledge discovery and data mining
are examples. Advanced Information Technology includes wireless
networks, ubiquitous devices, social networks, data/knowledge grids, as
well as service oriented architecture, cloud computing. The main goal of
the su!
mmer school is therefore to give an in-depth background on subjects
that are of broad interest to Web Intelligence and Intelligent Agent
Technology communities and provide participants the opportunity to be up
to date with current research trends in these areas.
