31 Mar '11

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] First CfP: Practice of Enterprise Modelling (PoEM 2011), Oslo/Norway Date: Thu, 31 Mar 2011 09:20:53 +0200 From: Andreas L. Opdahl <Andreas.Opdahl(a)uib.no> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org First Call for Papers PoEM 2011 - The 4th IFIP WG8.1 Working Conference on the Practice of Enterprise Modelling November 2-3, 2011 Oslo, Norway http://www.ea-network.org/poem2011 Important dates: Deadline for Papers: June 24, 2011 Notification of Acceptance: August 5, 2011 Camera Ready Copies: August 19, 2011 Conference: November 2-3, 2011 Aims and objectives The PoEM conferences contribute to establishing a dedicated forum where the use of Enterprise Modeling (EM) in practice is addressed by bringing together researchers, users and practitioners. The main focus of PoEM is EM methods, approaches, and tools, and how they are used in practice. More specifically, the goals of the conference are to further a better understanding of the practice of EM and improve the theory behind the practice, contributing to improved EM practice and to the sharing of knowledge. PoEM 2011 will be the 4th IFIP WG 8.1 working conference on the Practice of Enterprise Modeling. It follows the successes of PoEM 2008, 2009 and 2010, each of which attracted over 50 participants from all over the world, representing both industry and academia. This indicates that Enterprise Modeling has gained substantial popularity both in the academic community and among practitioners. The interactive format of the earlier conferences sparked constructive interaction between research and practice. The target for PoEM 2011 is to further strengthen this interaction by organizing a collaborative working session within the conference program. Up-to-date information about PoEM: http://www.ea-network.org/poem2011 . Topics Topics relevant for submissions include, but are not limited to, the following: evaluation of EM methods from a practice perspective, the process of modeling and guidelines for modeling, management of EM projects, use of EM in different contexts, facilitation and group dynamics, the competency of modelers and modeling teams, model and process quality aspects, reuse of enterprise models, modeling languages, tools and workbenches, enterprise model management, success factors in EM, teaching the practice, EM and agile development, enterprise knowledge architectures, standardization issues and reference models, method engineering in EM, concordance between EM and information systems development. Event Format PoEM is a highly interactive event. The conference will be organized at a venue close to the Oslo city centre, yet with hotels, bars and restaurants close to the conference site, in order to stimulate discussion and open exchange of ideas and experiences. In addition to highly interactive paper sessions the event will include a number of parallel think-tank sessions focusing on various topics, aiming for further development of issues and directions shared between practice and academia. Paper types * Experience papers present problems or challenges encountered in practice, relate success and failure stories, or report on industrial practices. The focus is on 'what' and on lessons learned, not on an in-depth analysis of 'why'. The practice must be clearly described and its context must be given. Readers should be able to draw conclusions for their own practice. * Research papers describe original research contributions (theoretical, methodological or conceptual) to the area of EM. A research paper should clearly describe the situation or problem that is tackled, the relevant state of the art, the position or solution suggested and the potential or the evaluated benefits of the contribution. * Evaluation papers evaluate existing problem situations or validate proposed solutions with scientific means. Scientific reflection on problems and practices in industry also falls into this category. The topic of the evaluation presented in the paper as well as its causal or logical properties must be clearly stated. The research method must be sound and appropriate. * Idea papers can describe completely new research positions or approaches, in order to face to a generic situation that arises because of, for instance, new methods and tools or new types of emerging EM challenges. They should describe precisely the situation and demonstrate the shortcomings of current methods, tools, ways of reasoning, meta-models, etc. Submission guidelines The conference proceedings will be published in Springer Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing (LNBIP). Papers should be submitted in Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF). The results described must be unpublished and must not be under review elsewhere. Submissions must conform to Springer's LNBIP format and should not exceed 15 pages. Submissions not conforming to the LNBIP format or exceeding 15 pages will be rejected without review.

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [computational.science] ACM/IEEE SeceS'11: Workshop on Security and Privacy Preserving in e-Societies - Lebanon (extended deadline: April 15th, 2011) Date: Wed, 30 Mar 2011 16:39:08 +0200 From: Richard Chbeir <Richard.chbeir(a)u-bourgogne.fr> Organization: "ICCSA" To: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> ********************** sorry for cross postings ********************* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The 1st International Workshop on Security and Privacy Preserving in e-Societies (SeceS'11) Tehnically sponsored by ACM SIGAPP.fr In cooperation with ACM SIGAPP and IEEE Lebanon Computer Chapter Antonine University, Lebanon June 9-10, 2011 http://seces.upa.edu.lb Description ------------ Recently information technologies have invaded almost every aspect of our modern life. The effects of the World Wide Web and more recently Web 2.0, computers, and telecommunications on societies have emerged to cover new form of social cyberspace as reference to digital society or e-Society. In fact, the e-Society is the result of an emerging era of digitalizing different forms of multimedia information making time and space compression a constant evolving task. E-Society represents a revolutionary change in the way people interact with each others beyond countries boundaries. It provides individuals, such as end-users and organizations, the ability to easily share and publish corporate data, visions, and strategies. Nonetheless, with this emerging social interaction and the wide range of shared data, several privacy and confidentiality concerns arise. Mechanisms used to harvest social information represent a privacy threat for users in many situations and such concerns fall beyond security administrators duties and target end-users in their daily tasks. Approaches proposed in the literature to provide safe data publishing have several drawbacks related, on one hand, to the heterogeneous types of data addressed, and, on the other hand, to complexity in specifying privacy and security rules. Topics ------- The aim of the workshop on Security and Privacy Preserving in e-Societies is to pin down the latest techniques, studies, and approaches related to security and privacy preserving in the digital society in the following (but not limited) topics: * Access control * Content protection * Data protection * Database security * Data association detection * Data integrity * Information hiding * Inference detection * Inference elimination * Knowledge discovery and privacy * Multimedia mining threats * Multimedia security * Multimedia privacy * Multimedia hiding * Network security * Network intrusion detection * Quantifying threat * Social networks security * Social networks privacy preserving * Security and privacy policies * Security metrics * Secure cloud computing * Watermarking and steganography * Wireless and mobile security Accepted papers will be published by ACM and fully indexed by ACM Digital Library and DBLP. Important Dates --------------- Full Papers Submission (extended): April 15, 2011 Notification of Paper Acceptance: May 10, 2011 Camera Ready Papers: May 15, 2011 Submissions ----------- Papers should be submitted in electronic form (PDF) using the conference website. Selection criteria will include: relevance, significance, impact, originality, technical soundness, and quality of presentation. Preference will be given to submissions that take strong or challenging positions on important emergent topics. At least one author should attend the conference to present the paper.

We announce the following awards for 2009: 2009 Best Paper: Jennifer Preece and Ben Shneiderman <http://aisel.aisnet.org/thci/vol1/iss1/5/>^2 2009 Best Reviewer: Heshan Sun <http://sun.faculty.arizona.edu/>^3 We also announce the following awards for 2010: 2010 Best Paper: Angsana A. Techatassanasoontorn and Arunee Tanvisuth <http://aisel.aisnet.org/thci/vol2/iss2/3/>^4 2010 Best Reviewer: Traci Hess <http://www.isenberg.umass.edu/finopmgt/Faculty/Profiles/Traci_Hess/>^5 We congratulate the winners and also want to emphasize that we thank them deeply as well. Without excellent papers, we would not have a meaningful journal. At the same time, without excellent reviewers, we would be unable to recognize not only excellence but _/potential/_ excellence. We hope that we can instill and maintain in our present and future review panels a supportive but critical philosophy of developing papers to their best potential. ================== In this issue ================== The first paper by Mauricio Featherman, Ryan T. Wright, Jason Bennett Thatcher, J. Christopher Zimmer, and Richard Pak focuses on the benefits and risks of e-services, and describes a lab experiment focusing on interactivity of an on-line payment system. E-services with interactivity provided interesting perceived benefits to users as well as intentions to use the systems compared to those without interactive capabilities. The second paper by Anna McNab, Traci J. Hess, and Joseph S. Valacich investigates the design of emergency response dispatch systems. This is a situation that you might imagine is full of pressure and low tolerance for errors. Providing color-coding and sorting of situations needing attention was very helpful in improving performance, especially when the complexity and pressure were most pronounced. We are delighted with these two experimental studies and thank the authors for their fine work and look forward to more contributions like these! The more formal abstracts follow: ------------- Abstracts ------------- Paper #1: The Influence of Interactivity on E-service Offerings: An Empirical Examination of Benefits and Risks By Mauricio Featherman, Ryan T. Wright, Jason Bennett Thatcher, J. Christopher Zimmer, and Richard Pak Abstract News reports of Internet-based security breaches, identity theft, fraud, and other dangers may increase the perceived risk and decrease the perceived benefits of using electronic services (or e-services). We examine whether interactivity serves as a means to diminish the perceived risks and increase the perceived benefits of using e-services. To examine interactivity's influence on consumers' perceptions, we conducted a laboratory experiment using a simulated web-based, online payment system. When compared to a non-interactive preview of an online payment system, we found that consumers who used an interactive e-service simulation reported higher perceived involvement and authenticity as well as higher intangibility and risks of e-services. Further, we found that interactivity moderated relationships such that consumers were more likely to report higher intentions to use e-services. The paper concludes with implications for research and practice. Paper #2: Designing Emergency Response Dispatch Systems for Better Dispatcher Performance By Anna McNab, Traci J. Hess, and Joseph S. Valacich Abstract Emergency response systems are a relatively new and important area of research in the information systems community. While there is a growing body of literature in this research stream, human-computer interaction (HCI) issues concerning the design of emergency response system interfaces have received limited attention. Emergency responders often work in time pressured situations and depend on fast access to key information. One of the problems studied in HCI research is the design of interfaces to improve user information selection and processing performance. Based on cue-summation theory and research findings on parallel processing, associative processing, and hemispheric differences in information processing, this study proposes that information selection of target information in an emergency response dispatch application can be improved by using supplementary cues. Color-coding and sorting are proposed as relevant cues that can improve processing performance by providing prioritization heuristics. An experimental emergency response dispatch application is developed, and user performance is tested under conditions of varying complexity and time pressure. The results suggest that supplementary cues significantly improve performance, with better results often obtained when both cues are used. Additionally, the use of these cues becomes more beneficial as time pressure and task complexity increase. ================== Call for Papers ================== /THCI/is a high-quality peer-reviewed international scholarly journal on Human-Computer Interaction.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] ACM/IEEE SeceS'11: Workshop on Security and Privacy Preserving in e-Societies - Lebanon (extended deadline: April 15th, 2011) Datum: Wed, 30 Mar 2011 16:39:03 +0200 Von: Richard Chbeir <Richard.chbeir(a)u-bourgogne.fr> An: Cs.vu.nl <wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de> ********************** sorry for cross postings ********************* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The 1st International Workshop on Security and Privacy Preserving in e-Societies (SeceS'11) Tehnically sponsored by ACM SIGAPP.fr In cooperation with ACM SIGAPP and IEEE Lebanon Computer Chapter Antonine University, Lebanon June 9-10, 2011 http://seces.upa.edu.lb Description ------------ Recently information technologies have invaded almost every aspect of our modern life. The effects of the World Wide Web and more recently Web 2.0, computers, and telecommunications on societies have emerged to cover new form of social cyberspace as reference to digital society or e-Society. In fact, the e-Society is the result of an emerging era of digitalizing different forms of multimedia information making time and space compression a constant evolving task. E-Society represents a revolutionary change in the way people interact with each others beyond countries boundaries. It provides individuals, such as end-users and organizations, the ability to easily share and publish corporate data, visions, and strategies. Nonetheless, with this emerging social interaction and the wide range of shared data, several privacy and confidentiality concerns arise. Mechanisms used to harvest social information represent a privacy threat for users in many situations and such concerns fall beyond security administrators duties and target end-users in their daily tasks. Approaches proposed in the literature to provide safe data publishing have several drawbacks related, on one hand, to the heterogeneous types of data addressed, and, on the other hand, to complexity in specifying privacy and security rules. Topics ------- The aim of the workshop on Security and Privacy Preserving in e-Societies is to pin down the latest techniques, studies, and approaches related to security and privacy preserving in the digital society in the following (but not limited) topics: * Access control * Content protection * Data protection * Database security * Data association detection * Data integrity * Information hiding * Inference detection * Inference elimination * Knowledge discovery and privacy * Multimedia mining threats * Multimedia security * Multimedia privacy * Multimedia hiding * Network security * Network intrusion detection * Quantifying threat * Social networks security * Social networks privacy preserving * Security and privacy policies * Security metrics * Secure cloud computing * Watermarking and steganography * Wireless and mobile security Accepted papers will be published by ACM and fully indexed by ACM Digital Library and DBLP. Important Dates --------------- Full Papers Submission (extended): April 15, 2011 Notification of Paper Acceptance: May 10, 2011 Camera Ready Papers: May 15, 2011 Submissions ----------- Papers should be submitted in electronic form (PDF) using the conference website. Selection criteria will include: relevance, significance, impact, originality, technical soundness, and quality of presentation. Preference will be given to submissions that take strong or challenging positions on important emergent topics. At least one author should attend the conference to present the paper.

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [computational.science] ACM MEDES'11: Call For Papers Date: Wed, 30 Mar 2011 09:14:16 +0200 From: Richard Chbeir <Richard.chbeir(a)u-bourgogne.fr> Organization: "ICCSA" To: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> ***************** Apologies for cross-postings ***************** The International Conference on Management of Emergent Digital EcoSystems (MEDES 2011) In cooperation with ACM SIGAPP and IFIP WG 2.6 http://sigappfr.acm.org/MEDES/11/ November 21-24, 2011 San Francisco, California, USA Description and Objectives --------------------------- In the world of the Internet, the rapid growth and exponential use of digital medias leads to the emergence of virtual environments namely digital ecosystems composed of multiple and independent entities such as individuals, organizations, services, software and applications sharing one or several missions and focusing on the interactions and inter-relationships among them. The digital ecosystem exhibits self-organizing environments, thanks to the re-combination and evolution of its "digital components", in which resources provided by each entity are properly conserved, managed and used. The underlying resources mainly comprehend data management, innovative services, computational intelligence and self-organizing platforms. Due to the multi-disciplinary nature of digital ecosystems and their characteristics, they are highly complex to study and design. This also leads to a poor understanding as to how managing resources will empower digital ecosystems to be innovative and value-creating. The application of Information Technologies has the potential to enable the understanding of how entities request resources and ultimately interact to create benefits and added-values, impacting business practices and knowledge. These technologies can be improved through novel techniques, models and methodologies for fields such as data management, web technologies, networking, security, human-computer interactions, artificial intelligence, e-services and self-organizing systems to support the establishment of digital ecosystems and manage their resources. The International ACM Conference on Management of Emergent Digital EcoSystems (MEDES) aims to develop and bring together a diverse community from academia, research laboratories and industry interested in exploring the manifold challenges and issues related to resource management of Digital Ecosystems and how current approaches and technologies can be evolved and adapted to this end. The conference seeks related original research papers, industrial papers and proposals for demonstrations.
