SAME 2011 ? 4th International Workshop on Semantic Ambient Media Experience (NAMU Series)
29th June-2nd July 2011
in conjunction with the
5th International Conference on Communities and Technologies, Brisbane, Australia
http://www.ambientmediaassociation.org/node/60, http://ct2011.urbaninformatics.net/
Creating the business value-creation, vision, media theories and technology for ambient media
--> extended deadline for position papers: 17th April 2011
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Call for Papers
The medium is the message! And the message was transmitted via a single distinguishable media
such as television, the Web, the radio, or books. In the age of ubiquitous and pervasive computation,
where the information goes through a distributed interlinked network of devices, the question ?what
is content in the age of ambient media?? becomes more and more of importance.
Ambient media are embedded throughout the natural environment of the consumer ? in his home,
in his car, in restaurants, and on his mobile device. Predominant example services are smart
wallpapers in homes, location based services, RFID based entertainment services for children, or
intelligent homes. The distribution of the medium throughout the natural environment implies a
paradigm change of how to think about content.
Until recently, content was identified as single entities to information ? a video stream, audio stream,
TV broadcast. However, in the age of ambient media, the notion of content extends from the single
entity thinking towards a plethora of sensor networks, smart devices, personalized services, media
embedded in the natural environment of the user and even the World Wide Web. The user actively
participates and co-designs media experience with his location and context based input. Initiatives as
the smart Web considering location based tagging for web-pages underline this development.
This multidisciplinary workshop aims at a series, and at the creation of a think-tank of creative
thinkers coming from technology, art, human-computer interaction, and social sciences, that are
interested in glimpsing the future of semantic ambient intelligent empowered media technology.
Thus, the workshop aims to answer to the challenges how to select, compose, and generate ambient
content; how to interpret content for the ambient presentation; how to re-use ambient content and
learning experiences; what are the characteristics of ambient media, its content, and technology; and
what are ambient media in terms of story-telling and art. And finally, how do ambient media create
business and value? How can ambient media be integrated into business processes and strategies?
In addition, Semantics plays a crucial role in the generation of ambient media content. It can be seen
as the glue between the raw data and the ambient media. Therefore we are interested to see
innovative ideas how data can be (semi-)automatically be interpreted and translated into media
presentations.
Workshop Challenges
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
? What is ?content? and how can it be presented in the age of ?ubiquitous? and ?pervasive??
? How to select, compose and generate ambient content?
? How to interpret content for an ambient presentation?
? How to manage and re-use ambient content in specific application scenarios (e.g. e-learning)?
? What is interactivity between the single consumers and consumer groups in the ambient context?
? How can collaborative or audience participatory content be supported?
? How can sensor data be interpreted and intelligently mined?
? How can existing media such as TV, home entertainment, cinema extended by ambient media?
? How can ambient media be applied in business processes?
? How do ambient media create value and business?
? Business opportunities and strategic issues of ambient media?
? Which methods for experience design, prototyping, and business models exist?
? What means Quality of Experience (QoE) in the context of ambient media?

The workshop aims at a series, and at the creation of a think-tank of creative thinkers coming from
technology, art, human-computer interaction, and social sciences, that are interested in glimpsing
the future of semantic ambient intelligent empowered media technology. We are aiming at
multidisciplinary, highly future oriented submissions that help to develop the "ambient media form"
for entertainment services, such as:
* case-studies (successful, and especially unsuccessful ones)
* oral presentation of fresh and innovative ideas
* artistic installations and running system prototypes
* user-experience studies and evaluations
* technological novelties, evaluations, and solutions
Target Audience
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The target audience are researchers and practitioners in the field of ubiquitous and pervasive
computation and its related areas. These include pervasive computation, emotional computation,
content creation, ubiquitous computation, human-computer-interaction and usability experts,
mobile industry, service creators, etc. Workshop participants shall have previous experience in this or
related fields to be able to contribute on a high scientific level. The workshop participants will
actively contribute to the development of semantic ambient media, due to a different method of
workshop organization. Participants shall participate rather than passively contribute. The
participants shall discuss and actively elaborate the topic and we plan to kick-off an international
web-based informal forum for ambient media, which shall increase the effect of this workshop
tremendously.
We strongly welcome multidisciplinary contributions coming from the media technology, business,
artistic, and human experience side. Case studies (successful and especially unsuccessful), artistic
installations, technologies, media studies, and user-experience evaluations are highly welcome,
which are affecting the development of ambient media as new form of media. Especially visionary
contributions shaping the future of ambient media are strongly welcome.

Einladung zur Einreichung von Beiträgen für den 2. Workshop
"Wirtschaftlichkeit und Wertbeitrag von Informationssystemen"
http://www.wi-inf.uni-duisburg-essen.de/WWI2011
im Rahmen der Jahrestagung der Gesellschaft für Informatik e.V.,
INFORMATIK 2011, 4.10. bis 7.10.2011, TU Berlin.
Die Entwicklung, Einführung, Nutzung und Wartung betrieblicher
Informationssysteme zielen auf eine möglichst wirtschaftliche
Unterstützung betrieblicher Entscheidungen, Handlungen und
Abläufe. Der Einsatz betrieblicher Informationssysteme soll die
Wirtschaftlichkeit des Handelns in Unternehmen verbessern und die
Wettbewerbsfähigkeit von Unternehmen befördern. Die Auffassung
betrieblicher Informationssysteme als
Mensch-Aufgabe-Technik-Systeme legt eine methodische
Unterstützung nahe, die den Spezifika betrieblicher
Informationssysteme in Bezug auf ihre Wirtschaftlichkeit und
ihren Wertbeitrag Rechnung trägt. Dazu zählt u.a. die Analyse des
umgebenden organisatorischen Handlungssystems, in dem menschliche
und maschinelle Aufgabenträger einen Wirkungsverbund bilden.
Das Programmkomitee lädt Beiträge ein, die sich mit der
Entwicklung und dem Einsatz von Verfahren, Methoden und allgemein
Konzeptionen auseinandersetzen, die darauf gerichtet sind, die
Wirtschaftlichkeit von Informationssystemen und ihren Beitrag zur
Zielerreichung etwa zur Verbesserung der Service-Qualität von
Unternehmen zu erheben und/oder zu befördern.
Der Workshop richtet sich an Wissenschaftler und an akademisch
interessierte Praktiker, die an den Themen IV-Controlling,
IT/Business Value, IT/Business Alignment, Performanzmessung und
wertorientierte Software-Entwicklung interessiert sind. Er wird
von der Fachgruppe IT-Controlling im Fachbereich
Wirtschaftsinformatik der Gesellschaft für Informatik e.V.
unterstützt.
Wichtige Termine
24.04.2011: Einreichungsschluss für Beiträge über das
Konferenzmanagementsystem der INFORMATIK 2011.
23.05.2011: Mitteilung über Annahme/Ablehnung von eingereichten
Manuskripten.
01.07.2011: Einreichung, der auf Grundlage der Gutachten
überarbeiteten finalen Fassung (fertige Druckvorlage) für den
Tagungsband.
Voraussichtlich 05.10.2011: Workshop in Berlin (Termin wird
Anfang Juli 2010 bekannt gegeben).

CALL FOR PAPERS
7th INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON OPEN SOURCE SYSTEMS (OSS'2011)
5-8 October 2011, Salvador, Brazil
8th April 2011, deadline for papers submission
http://ossconf.org
Over the past decade, the Open Source Software (OSS) phenomenon has
had a global impact on the way organisations and individuals create,
distribute, acquire and use software and software-based services. OSS
has challenged the conventional wisdom of the software engineering and
software business communities, has been instrumental for educators and
researchers, and has become an important aspect of e-government and
information society initiatives. OSS is a complex phenomenon and
requires a interdisciplinary understanding of its engineering,
technical, economic, legal and socio-cultural dynamics.
The goal of OSS 2011, the first to be held in South America, is to
provide an international forum where a diverse community of
professionals from academia, industry and public administration can
come together to share research findings and practical experiences.
The conference is also meant to provide information and education to
practitioners, identify directions for further research, and to be an
ongoing platform for technology transfer.
***The major OSS 2011 theme is Software Reliability. ***
Conference Topics
The conference will consist of research and industry papers
presentations, workshops, tutorials, panels, and project
demonstrations. The major OSS 2011 theme is Software Reliability.

2011)*
*-------------------------------------------------------------------------------*
*Fourth Special Track on *
*/Computer-based Knowledge & Skill Assessment and Feedback
in Learning Settings (CAF)/*
http://www.iicm.edu/CAF2011
This special track will take place during ICL 2011 in in
Piešťany, Slovakia (21 - 23 September 2011) as a special
programme item.
/The Special Track CAF 2011/provides an interdisciplinary
forum for international scientists and practitioners to
discuss various aspects of computer-based knowledge & skill
assessment in learning settings and based on that feedback
provision for students and teachers. This year CAF is
organized in cooperation with the European funded project
ALICE (Adaptive Learning via Intuitive/Interactive,
Collaborative and Emotional System), http://www.aliceproject.eu.
The /International Conference on Interactive Computer aided
Learning (ICL)/ is an interdisciplinary conference which
aims to focus on the exchange of relevant trends and
research results as well as the presentation of practical
experiences in interactive computer aided learning.
*Background*
Our modern life at the beginning of the 21st century is
strongly influenced by effects such as rapidly changing and
developing information, technology-enhanced communication
and information access, and new forms of production and
services in a globalized world. This situation requires
individuals to adapt their skills and competencies.
Consequently, educational objectives and societal
expectations have changed significantly in recent years.
Modern learning settings must consider learning community
aspects as well as learner-centered, knowledge-centered and
assessment-centered aspects.
By focusing on the assessment, this concept can be further
distinguished in (1) summative assessment, performed at the
end of a set of learning activities, and (2) formative
assessment, which is intended to give continuous feedback to
students and teachers. The latter mentioned formative
assessment gives information about the current state of
knowledge and/or the degree of knowledge acquisition within
learning activities.
Assessment is an important component of modern teaching and
learning processes in face-to-face courses as well as in
e-learning environments; it provides valuable feedback to
teachers and students which allows the revision and
adaptation of teaching and learning activities. Furthermore,
assessment activities and results can also be utilized for
building and strengthening metacognitive skills. However,
continuous and frequent assessment in learning processes may
cause excessive efforts and costs. Therefore,
computer-assisted assessment systems (CaAS) and
computer-based assessment systems (CbAS) have become of
increasing interest over the years. Assessment systems may
support parts or the entire chain of the assessment
lifecycle. This lifecycle includes authoring and management
of assessment items, compilation of specific tests,
performance of assessments, and compilation and management
results. Additionally, emerging interest in the sharing and
re-use of assessment items or compiled assessment tests and
the exchangeability of assessment outcomes has resulted in
standardization efforts, such as the IMS Question & Test
Interoperability Specification (IMS QTI).
The special track will bring together international
researchers as well as practitioners from different
organisations who will have plenty of time for networking
and real-world knowledge sharing.
CAF is interested in novel scientific research, findings
from experiments and results form real-life applications. We
invite submissions that deal with issues including, but not
limited to:
* Aspects of formative and summative assessment
* History and challenges of e-assessment
* Computer-supported assessment rubric
* Computer-based knowledge & skill assessment for
individuals and groups

WORKSHOP RATIONALE AND AIMS
---------------------------
In the context of the Web, the word "mashup" is used to denote Web applications that are materialized by integrating data, services and/or presentation of other (data) sources or applications. Mashups and mashup tools with their models, languages, and instruments for mashup development are innovative in that they tackle integration at the user interface level (most mashups do integrate presentation content, not "just" data), they aim at simplicity more than completeness of features (up to the point that advanced Web users, not only programmers, can develop composite applications), and they allow fairly sophisticated development tasks in the web browser.
Over the last years, we have seen many efforts invested in research on mashups, in both the industrial and the academic context, yet we are still far from a common understanding of the problems that drive the research, of the approaches that best fit given problems, and even of the benefits of the results achieved so far.
The goal of ComposableWeb is to stimulate the discussion of key issues, approaches, open problems, innovative applications, and trends in the area of web mashups and lightweight composition on the Web, so as to accelerate progress.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
------------------
Areas of particular interest for the workshop include (but are not limited to):
* Web/service/data mashups
* Web composition technologies
* Web composition models and languages
* Lightweight data integration
* Lightweight application integration
* Lightweight UI integration (integration at the presentation level)
* Lightweight (semantic) metadata or knowledge integration
* Design methodologies with/without user involvement
* Domain-specific mashup approaches
* New development models
* Model-driven mashup approaches
* End user oriented mashup approaches
* User interface aspects of Web composition
* Visual/graphical development metaphors
* Context-aware and personalized Web composition/mashups
* Usability and Accessibility of composite Web applications
* Evaluation/quality of composite Web applications
* Case studies and industrial experiences
TARGET AUDIENCE
---------------
ComposableWeb aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners with different research interests and belonging to communities like Web Engineering, Service Engineering, Business Process Management, Databases, Semantic Web, Software Composition and Software Engineering.
PAPER SUBMISSION
----------------
Authors are invited to submit research papers and demo proposals. Submissions should not exceed 12 pages for research papers and 3 pages for demo proposals and should be formatted according to the Springer LNCS format.
After the successful experience of the 2009 and 2010 editions, we explicitly dedicate again at least one session of the workshop to demonstrations and hands-on discussions. Demos will be selected from the demo proposal submissions and from those accepted papers whose authors are willing to equip their presentation with an according demonstration.
Papers are submitted as PDF files via the ComposableWeb 2011 EasyChair conference management system:
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=composableweb2011.
Submitted research papers may not overlap with papers that have already been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with proceedings.
PROCEEDINGS
-----------
Accepted papers will be published on the workshop web site ahead of the workshop and in the ICWE 2011 workshop post-proceedings published by Springer in the LNCS series. For a paper to be published, at least one of its authors must register for the main conference and register for and participate in the workshop.

/*
*Introduction*
The reality is that there is very little research in service
innovation. In the current economic environment, service
sector dominates the economies of the developed world. In
this complex scenario, service is fast becoming the key
driver of socio-economic, academic and commercial research
attention.
One of the main drivers that shape services and service
companies, organizations and governments is the increasing
intensity of knowledge in services, and the impact of
information and communication technologies on them. Because
knowledge in knowledge-intensive services is typically
located in product, service or both, it is important to
collect, store, modify, update and distribute it in a way
that would provide value for the clients.
The */subject area/* is a combination of Knowledge
Management, Information Technologies, Information Systems
and Government Policies.
*Objective of the Book*
Knowledge Management is concerned with all aspects of
eliciting, acquiring, modeling and managing knowledge, as
well as its role in the construction of knowledge-intensive
systems and services for the semantic web, knowledge
management, e-business, natural language processing,
intelligent information integration and so.
Application of knowledge resources successfully helps the
organization to deliver creative products and services.
Especially in service business, service job experience and
information about the customer as well as the installed site
equipment are key factors to deliver services efficiently
and with high quality. In many cases supporting information
is stored in different backend systems and it needs to be
retrieved, aggregated and presented on demand. These
requirements play a crucial role for contact centers, which
have the first contacts with customers, as well as for the
field service engineers, who have the closest contacts with
the customers during executions of service jobs at the
customers? sites.
