INTRODUCTION The physical things and the human society have formed into the world we live in. However, the emergence of information technologies enables a new infrastructure for a technical, economic and social revolution, which have changed the world we are used to. Cyber-physical systems couple the cyber aspects of computing and communications with the physical aspects of dynamics that must abide by the laws of physics. Social computing has become more widely known because of proliferation of online social networking in recent years. With the advent of ubiquitous sensing, future social networks will become cyber-physical, combining measured elements of the physical world. The convergence of computational and physical processes as well as human's social behaviors exhibits a variety of complicated characteristics, which leads to a lot of challenges. The 2011 IEEE International Conference on Cyber, Physical, and Social Computing (CPSCom'11) will provide a high-profile, leading-edge forum for researchers, engineers, and practitioners to present state-of-art advances and innovations in theoretical foundations, systems, infrastructure, tools, testbeds, and applications for the CPSCom, as well as to identify emerging research topics and define the future.

The traditional approach to reporting is no longer adequate, users now demand easy-to-use intelligent platforms and applications capable of analyzing real-time data to provide insight and actionable information at the right time. The end goal is to support better and timelier decision making, enabled by the availability of up-to-date, high quality information. Although there has been progress in this direction and many companies are introducing products towards meeting this goal, there is still a long way to go. In particular, the whole lifecycle of business intelligence requires new techniques and methodologies capable of dealing with the new requirements imposed by the new generation of BI applications. From the capturing of real-time business data to the transformation and delivery of actionable information, all the stages of the Business Intelligence (BI) cycle call for new algorithms and paradigms as the basis of new functionalities including dynamic integration of real-time data feeds from operational sources, optimization and evolution of ETL transformations and analytical models, and dynamic generation of adaptive real-time dashboards, just to name a few. The series of BIRTE workshops aims to provide a forum to discuss topics related to this emerging field and set research directions towards making business intelligence more real-time. Following the success of BIRTE 2006 held in Seoul, Korea in conjunction with VLDB 2006, BIRTE 2008 held in Auckland, New Zealand in conjunction with VLDB 2008, BIRTE 2009 held in Lyon, France in conjunction with VLDB 2009 and BIRTE 2010 held in Singapore in conjunction with VLDB 2010, submissions for research, industrial and position papers on relevant topics are encouraged. TOPICS OF INTEREST Models, Architectures and Technologies for Real-time Enterprise Business Intelligence - Data quality and cleansing - BI over streaming data - Data capture in real-time - Performance and scalability - Real-time decision support - Tuning and management of the real-time data warehouse - Data warehouse evolution - ETL optimization - ETL for the real-time data warehouse - New architectures for real-time data ingestion and processing - Data mining and data analysis in real-time - Real-time Business Activity Monitoring (BAM) - Real-time OLAP - Visualization - Streaming text analytics Applications of Real-time Enterprise Business Intelligence - Case studies - Pitfalls in applying BI tools to real-life problems - Lessons learned from large practical applications of real-time BI - Industrial experiences and challenges SUBMISSION GUIDELINES Papers should follow the LNCS format (see http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-791344-0l for details).The first page must contain an abstract, a classification of the topic covered, preferably using the list of topics above, and an indication of the submission category (regular paper/position paper/industry paper).

The virtual migration of transactional activities has given rise to changing stakeholder expectations about the way organizations function and the type of e-services being delivered. With the emergence of novel technological innovations, such as cloud computing, green computing, mobile applications, social networking, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and Web 2.0, both public and private organizations have a much larger arsenal of tools from which to innovate business practices and deliver e-services that are sustainable, personalizable and responsive to stakeholder needs. This track embraces both retrospective and progressive views of how e-commerce, e-business and e-government have evolved and would transform with technological advances. We welcome papers that identify and address knowledge gaps in: (1) the e-transformation of organizations (both public and private) in an increasingly digital era, and/or;(2) the development of e-service interfaces between organizations (both public and private) and their stakeholders. Papers that subscribe to inter-disciplinary perspectives,adopt mixed methods and/or address the Mediterranean contextare particularly welcome. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Cloud computing in e-service delivery * Collaborative commerce * E-service delivery in developing countries * E-service failure and recovery * E-service quality of e-commerce, e-business and/or e-government websites * E-transformation of public and/or private organizations * Evaluation of ICT investments for e-commerce, e-business and/or e-government * Hedonic design of e-commerce, e-business and/or e-government websites * ICT service chains * Interoperability in e-service delivery * Mobile commerce * Personalization of e-services * Social networks and Web 2.0 in e-service delivery * Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) in e-service delivery * Sustainability issues in e-commerce, e-business and/or e-government * Value (co)creation in e-commerce, e-business and/or e-government =============================================================== =============================================================== Conference Submissions Articles should be submitted electronically as PDF files via the EasyChair submission system at: https://www.easychair.org/account/signin.cgi?conf=mcis2011 When submitting, authors should indicate the track for which they wish their paper to be considered. Submissions will be subjected to peer review.

Fwd: [WI] Cfp: IJISMD - Special Issue on Enterprise Engineering
by Gustaf Neumann 21 Mar '11

21 Mar '11

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] Cfp: IJISMD - Special Issue on Enterprise Engineering Datum: Mon, 21 Mar 2011 14:17:24 +0100 Von: Albani Antonia <antonia.albani(a)unisg.ch> An: wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de ********************* CALL FOR PAPERS ********************* SPECIAL ISSUE on Enterprise Engineering International Journal of Information System Modeling and Design (IJISMD) Submission Deadline: May 15, 2011 Guest Editor(s): Antonia Albani, Eduard Babkin, Junichi Iijima, and José Tribolet INTRODUCTION: Modern enterprises face a strong economical pressure to increase competitiveness, to operate on a global market, and to engage in alliances of several kinds. But the vast majority of strategic initiatives in enterprises fail, meaning that enterprises are unable to gain success from their strategy. Abundant research indicates that the key reason for strategic failures is the lack of coherence and consistency among the various components of an enterprise. At the same time, the need to operate as a unified and integrated whole is becoming increasingly important. These challenges are dominantly addressed from a functional or managerial perspective, as advocated by management and organization science. Such knowledge is necessary and sufficient for managing an enterprise, but it is inadequate for bringing about changes. To do that, one needs to take a constructional or engineering perspective. Both organizations and software systems are complex and prone to entropy. This means that in the course of time, the costs of bringing about similar changes increase in a way that is known as combinatorial explosion. Regarding information systems, this has been demonstrated; regarding organizations, it is still a conjecture. Entropy can be reduced and managed effectively through modular design based on atomic elements. The people in an enterprise are collectively responsible for the operation (including management) of the enterprise. In addition, they are collectively responsible for the evolution of the enterprise (adapting to needs for change). These responsibilities can only be borne if one has appropriate knowledge of the enterprise. OBJECTIVE OF THE SPECIAL ISSUE: It is the mission of the discipline of Enterprise Engineering to develop new, appropriate theories, models, methods and other artifacts for the analysis, design, implementation, and governance of enterprises by combining (relevant parts of) management and organization science, information systems science, and computer science. The ambition is to address (all) traditional topics in said disciplines from the Enterprise Engineering Paradigm. The result of the efforts should be theoretically rigorous and practically relevant. RECOMMENDED TOPICS: Topics relevant for submissions include, but are not limited to, the following: * Enterprise Ontology * Enterprise Architecture * Enterprise Governance * Modeling (cross-enterprise) business processes * Reference models for (cross-enterprise) business processes * Domain reference ontologies * Business rules * Information systems development * Information system ontologies * Information system architectures * Component-based system development * Ontology-based web services * Interoperability testing and verification * Service Oriented Architecture * Enterprise modeling and simulation * Organizational modeling and simulation * Business process modeling and simulation * Collaborative, Participative, and Interactive Modeling. SUBMISSION PROCEDURE: Researchers and practitioners are invited to submit papers for this special theme issue on Enterprise Engineering on or before May 15, 2011. All submissions must be original and may not be under review by another publication. INTERESTED AUTHORS SHOULD CONSULT THE JOURNAL'S GUIDELINES FOR MANUSCRIPT SUBMISSIONS at http://www.igi-global.com/Files/AuthorEditor/guidelinessubmission.pdf. All submitted papers will be reviewed on a double-blind, peer review basis. Papers must follow APA style for reference citations. MISSION OF IJISMD: The mission of the International Journal of Information System Modeling and Design (IJISMD) is to provide an international forum for modeling experts and design professionals for exchanging innovative ideas. IJISMD enables presentation of original work in the development of models for business alignment with computerized services in order to make both organizational and technical systems more effective. It especially focuses on semantic integrity between business process and data, as well as on new methods for identification of semantic inconsistency, incompleteness, redundancy, and ambiguity of information system specifications.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP: The Third International Workshop on e-Healthcare Information Security (e-HISec 2011) Datum: Mon, 21 Mar 2011 12:28:20 GMT Von: Zanifa Omary <zanifa.omary(a)mydit.ie> An: AISWorld <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> ************************************************************************* We apologise if you received multiple copies of this call ************************************************************************** CALL FOR PAPERS =================================================================== The Third International Workshop on e-Healthcare Information Security (e-HISec 2011) http://www.comp.dit.ie/e-hisec2011 ==================================================================== To be Hosted in conjuction with The International Conference on Information Society (i-Society 2011) June 27-29, 2011, London, UK http://www.i-society.eu ==================================================================== Paper submission deadline: April 15, 2011 ==================================================================== In recent years substantial budgets have been and are being committed towards e-healthcare. For example, as part of the stimulus package the Obama administration is going to spend 19 Billion dollars in healthcare. A significant part of this budget will be spent on making sure that all Americans have Electronic Healthcare Records (EHRs) by 2014. The move towards e-health care is envisaged to reduce the cost of provision of healthcare, improve quality of care and reduce medical errors. Despite all these advantages the security concerns are real and going to increase as the rate we digitise information and use the web increases. Major security issues include patient privacy, trust, and quality-assurance. Security concerns are affecting the adoption rate and usage of e-healthcare information systems. Unless deliberate efforts are taken to secure these systems from design to implementation most of the development achieved to date may not be realised and rolled out to the real world. This workshop will bring together researchers and industry participants who are involved either in the design, development, and implementation of novel secure e-healthcare Information systems or in the research that addresses the key questions in the enhancement of privacy and security of e-health care information. We expect the work to be presented in this workshop to address security and privacy problems and solutions that can be used in distributed and heterogeneous computer systems as well as in mobile devices, which will characterise the emerging e-healthcare environment. The security and privacy issues in e-healthcare Information Systems that are covered in this workshop are also becoming important now in digital information management in general. These issues will also have significant effect in other emerging application areas such as cloud computing. We, therefore, welcome original, high-quality research contributions that advance the state-of-the-art in the design, development, deployment, evaluation and understanding of secure e-healthcare information systems. TOPICS OF INTEREST INCLUDE BUT NOT LIMITED TO: ============================================== * Electronic Patient Records * Federated Electronic Health Records * Privacy concerns in e-healthcare information systems * Privacy enhancing technologies in healthcare * Security in e-healthcare information systems * Trust concerns in e-healthcare information systems * Models for Privacy and Trust * Security and privacy standards for e-healthcare information systems * Design principles of secure context-aware e-healthcare information systems * How security addresses the legal and ethical issues in emerging e-healthcare information systems * Frameworks for evaluation of e-healthcare systems * Tools and techniques for designing, developing, implementing and evaluating e-healthcare information systems * Challenges in building secure e-healthcare information systems * Interoperability issues in e-healthcare * Business intelligence in healthcare IMPORTANT DATES ========================== Paper Submission Date: April 15, 2011 Notification of Paper Acceptance/Rejection: April 30, 2011 Camera Ready Submission Due: May 15, 2011 Conference Dates: June 27-29, 2011 SUBMISSION DETAILS ========================== We encourage submissions from researchers and practitioners from academia and industry. All are invited to submit papers limited to 6 pages in the format provided at the conference web page http://www.i-society.eu/Paper%20Submission.html, describing original work or a position paper.

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] IRI'11 CFP: IEEE Intl. Conf. on Information Reuse and Integration Date: Sat, 19 Mar 2011 00:33:17 -0500 (CDT) From: Chengcui Zhang <zhang(a)cis.uab.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org --- Apologies for cross-posting --- *** Authors are highly recommended to submit their abstracts by Mar. 28th *** The 12th IEEE International Conference on Information Reuse and Integration (IEEE IRI-2011) Tuscany Suites& Casino, Las Vegas, USA August 3-5, 2011 http://www.sis.pitt.edu/~iri2011/ Given the emerging global Information-centric IT landscape that has tremendous social and economic implications, effectively processing and integrating humongous volumes of information from diverse sources to enable effective decision making and knowledge generation have become one of the most significant challenges of current times. Information Reuse and Integration (IRI) seeks to maximize the reuse of information by creating simple, rich, and reusable knowledge representations and consequently explores strategies for integrating this knowledge into systems and applications. IRI plays a pivotal role in the capture, representation, maintenance, integration, validation, and extrapolation of information; and applies both information and knowledge for enhancing decision-making in various application domains. This conference explores three major tracks: information reuse, information integration, and reusable systems. Information explores theory and practice of optimizing representation; information integration focuses on innovative strategies and algorithms for applying integration approaches in novel domains; and reusable systems focus on developing and deploying models and corresponding processes that enable Information Reuse and Integration to play a pivotal role in enhancing decision-making processes in various application domains. The IEEE IRI conference serves as a forum for researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and government to present, discuss, and exchange ideas that address real-world problems with real-world solutions. Theoretical and applied papers are both included. The conference program will include special sessions, open forum workshops, panels and keynote speeches. The conference includes, but is not limited to, the areas listed below: - Large Scale Data and System Integration - Component-Based Design and Reuse - Unifying Data Models (UML, XML, etc.) and Ontologies - Database Integration - Structured/Semi-structured Data - Middleware& Web Services - Reuse in Software Engineering - Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery - Sensory and Information Fusion - Reuse in Modeling& Simulation - Automation, Integration and Reuse across Various Applications - Information Security& Privacy - Survivable Systems& Infrastructures - AI& Decision Support Systems - Heuristic Optimization and Search - Knowledge Acquisition and Management - Fuzzy and Neural Systems - Soft Computing - Evolutionary Computing - Case-Based Reasoning - Natural Language Understanding - Knowledge Management and E-Government - Command& Control Systems (C4ISR) - Human-Machine Information Systems - Space and Robotic Systems - Biomedical& Healthcare Systems - Homeland Security& Critical Infrastructure Protection - Manufacturing Systems& Business Process Engineering - Multimedia Systems - Service-Oriented Architecture - Autonomous Agents in Web-based Systems - Information Integration in Grid Computing Environments - Information Integration in Mobile Computing Environments - Information Integration in Ubiquitous Computing Environments - Systems of Systems - Semantic Web and Emerging Applications - Information Reuse, Integration and Sharing in Collaborative Environments Best Paper Award: Starting this year, IEEE IRI will be presenting a Best Paper award.
