-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] 2nd CFP: Future Generation Computer Systems, Elsevier Special Issue on Advanced Data-Intensive Computing Datum: Tue, 6 Mar 2012 15:04:42 +0100 Von: Alfredo Cuzzocrea <cuzzocrea(a)si.deis.unical.it> Organisation: "ICCSA" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> Call for Papers -------------------- Future Generation Computer Systems (http://www.elsevier.com/locate/fgcs/), Elsevier (http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/homepage.cws_home), Special Issue on "Innovative Methods and Algorithms for Advanced Data-Intensive Computing" (http://si.deis.unical.it/cuzzocrea/FGCS2012/) Chair ------- Alfredo Cuzzocrea (http://si.deis.unical.it/cuzzocrea/), ICAR-CNR and University of Calabria, Italy Aim and Scope --------------------- Advanced data-intensive computing represents an active area of research that spans across a significant number of research topics ranging from traditional parallel and distributed computing to recent Grid and Cloud computing. All these high-performance paradigms share a common emphasis that focuses on the issue of effectively and efficiently representing, managing and distributing large-size and large-scale data that populate their internal layers. This conveys to the well-known term "data-intensive computing", which represents an emerging challenge in next-generation computing systems. Data-intensive computing has recently been of great interest for the research community, mainly driven by modern research initiatives such as big data management, analytics over large-scale data, very-large scientific data management, social network data management, and so forth. There exists a wide range of application scenarios where data-intensive computing is relevant: scientific data management, bio-medical data management, sensor and stream data management, environmental data management, and so forth. While traditional challenges of sensor and stream processing (bounded-memory, single-pass processing, blocking query operators, multi-rate arrivals, and so forth) affect managing, updating and querying exact sensor and stream databases, additional challenges arise when dealing with novel uncertain sensor and stream databases. Hence, innovative models, algorithms and techniques for managing, updating and querying uncertain sensor and stream databases must be devised, perhaps embedding probabilistic or statistical approaches. Managing these kinds of data poses critical and still-unsolved issues, mostly represented by the enormous size of data and the exponential scaling-up of data over growing-in-size inputs and requirements. A reliable solution to these issues comes from the usage of advanced computational paradigms, like MapReduce, and infrastructures, like Clouds. A necessary step towards the successfully achievement of this goal is represented by the need for innovative methods and algorithms for advanced data-intensive computing, as classical proposals appeared in traditional areas like parallel and distributed computing are clearly inadequate to cope with the requirements dictated by modern data-intensive scenarios. With these goals in mind, the proposed Future Generation Computer Systems (FGCS) special issue will cover theoretical as well as practical aspects of models and algorithms for advanced data-intensive computing on high-performance computational infrastructures like Grids and Clouds. Relevant research areas for the proposed FGCS special issue include, but are not limited to, the following ones: - foundations of advanced data-intensive computing; - advanced data-intensive computing models; - advanced data-intensive computing methodologies; - advanced data-intensive computing techniques; - advanced data-intensive computing algorithms; - pervasive data-intensive computing - high-performance advanced data-intensive computing in innovative contexts like streams, sensors, mobile environments and social networks; - innovative scenarios of advanced data-intensive computing (e.g., scientific data, biomedical data, statistical data etc); - theoretical aspects of advanced data-intensive computing; - privacy aspects of advanced data-intensive computing; - security aspects of advanced data-intensive computing; - load-balancing issues in advanced data-intensive computing; - scheduling paradigms for advanced data-intensive computing; - scalable data-intensive computing models; - scalable data-intensive computing algorithms; - disk-based models for advanced data-intensive computing; - disk-based algorithms for advanced data-intensive computing; - cluster-based models for advanced data-intensive computing; - cluster-based algorithms for advanced data-intensive computing; - cloud-based models for advanced data-intensive computing; - cloud-based algorithms for advanced data-intensive computing; - service-oriented-based models for advanced data-intensive computing; - service-oriented-based algorithms for advanced data-intensive computing; - P2P-oriented advanced data-intensive computing; - Map-Reduce-based advanced data-intensive computing.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] Fourth SoEA4EE Workshop (@ EDOC) - Call for Papers Datum: Tue, 06 Mar 2012 20:58:02 +0100 Von: Selmin Nurcan <nurcan(a)univ-paris1.fr> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org Dear Colleague, I will be grateful to you for advertising the Fourth Workshop on Service oriented Enterprise Architecture for Enterprise Engineering (SoEA4EE'2012), for submitting your work and inviting your colleagues and/or research students to submit their work. SoEA4EE'2012 is organised in conjunction with the 16th International Enterprise Computing Conference (EDOC) on September 11th, 2012, Beijing, China. The goal of the SoEA4EE'2012 workshop is to develop concepts and methods to assist the engineering and the management of service-oriented enterprise architectures and the software systems supporting them. Especially four themes of research shall be pursued: 1. Alignment of the enterprise goals and strategies with the service-oriented enterprise architecture 2. Design of the service-oriented enterprise architecture 3. SoEA and Cloud-Computing 4. Mapping of service-oriented enterprise architecture to enterprise resources. Workshop proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer Society and included in the IEEE Computer Society Digital Library (CSDL) and the IEEE Xplore. The IEEE reserves the right to exclude a paper from distribution after the conference (e.g., removal from IEEE Xplore) if the paper is not presented at the workshop. The Call for Papers (PDF format) can be downloaded from the SoEA4EE'2011 Web site : http://crinfo.univ-paris1.fr/users/nurcan/SoEA4EE_2012/ Best regards, Selmin Nurcan SoEA4EE'2012 co-organiser *********************************************************************************************** Call for Papers Fourth International Workshop on Service oriented Enterprise Architecture for Enterprise Engineering (SoEA4EE) in conjunction with EDOC 2012 September 11th, 2012, Beijing, China Organisers: Selmin Nurcan – University Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne, France Rainer Schmidt – Aalen University, Germany Papers submission deadline: April 1, 2012 Detailed Call for Papers is below.

According to Ross et al. , smart companies define how they (will) do business (using an operating model) and design the processes and infrastructure critical to their current and future operations (using an enterprise architecture). Enterprise Engineering (EE) is the application of engineering principles to the design of Enterprise Architectures. It allows deriving the Enterprise Architecture from the enterprise goals and strategy and aligning it with the enterprise resources as shown in Figure 1, Enterprise architecture aims (i) to understand the interactions and all kind of articulations between business and information technology, (ii) to define how to align business components and IT components, as well as business strategy and IT strategy, and more particularly (iii) to develop and support a common understanding and sharing of those purposes of interest. Enterprise architecture is used to map the enterprise goal and strategy to the enterprise’s resources (actors, assets, IT supports) and to take into account the evolution of this mapping. It also provides documentation on the assignment of enterprise resources to the enterprise goals and strategy. There are different paradigms for creating enterprise architecture. The most important is to encapsulate the functionalities of IT resources as services. By this means, it is possible to clearly describe the contributions of IT both in terms of functionality and quality and to define a service-oriented enterprise architecture (SoEA). SoEA easily integrates wide-spread technological approaches such as SOA or emerging ones as cloud computing because they also use service as structuring and governing paradigm. The enterprise goals and strategies are mapped to a SoEA. SoEA differentiates four layers of services. Thus, its scope is much broader than the scope of SOA and also includes services not accessible through software such as business and infrastructure services. Services of different layers may be interconnected in service (value) nets to provide higher level services. 1. Business services are services, which directly support business processes. Business processes can also be developed dynamically (on-the-fly) using business services which are available in a repository for a given business domain. An example is call-centre services provided by an external service provider. 2. Software services exist as two types: (i) human-oriented applications, which are provided as Software as a Service, (ii) application services which are part of so-called SOA that are a popular paradigm for creating enterprise software. 3. Platform Services provide support of the development of applications. They provide services for the execution of applications, middleware stacks, web servers etc. 4. Infrastructure services are more hardware-flavoured services, which are provided using computers. They may have a human addressee but contain many infrastructure services such as providing computing power, storage etc. They are an important topic in management and practice collections such as ITILV3 or standards such as ISO/IEC 20000 have gained a high popularity. ------ GOALS ------ The goal of the workshop is to develop concepts and methods to assist the engineering and the management of service-oriented enterprise architectures and the software systems supporting them. Especially four themes of research shall be pursued: 1. Alignment of the enterprise goals and strategies with the service-oriented enterprise architecture 2. Design of the service-oriented enterprise architecture 3. SoEA and Cloud-Computing 4. Mapping of service-oriented enterprise architecture to enterprise resources --------------------- TOPICS OF DISCUSSION --------------------- During the workshop we will discuss the following topics: 1. Alignment of the enterprise goals and strategy with the SoEA - Which interdependencies exist between services and business strategy? - Which concepts and methods are necessary to align services with the business strategy? - Which new potentials to reengineer business processes are created by services? - How are non-functional requirements derived from enterprise goals and strategy? - How are services aligned with non-functional requirements? - How are services aligned with compliance requirements? - Are the compliance and governance requirements enforced using SoEA? 2. Design of SoEA - How are business, software, platform and infrastructure services defined? - How are business services assigned to business processes? - How are business services assigned to non-functional requirements? - How do meta-services differentiate for business, software, platform and infrastructure services? - How are appropriate meta-services designed? - Which phases do the lifecycle of business, software, platform and infrastructure services contain? - How can the fulfilment of non-functional requirements be monitored? - Which benchmarks and key performance indicators should be applied to services? - Which approaches exist for the continual improvement of services? 3. SoEA and Cloud-Computing - How does SoEA interrelate with cloud computing? - How are Enterprise Architectures designed using cloud-services? - How differ cloud-services from other kinds of services? - How are Enterprise Architectures designed using cloud-environments? - Which meta-services are necessary for cloud-environments? - How are service (value) nets -consisting of business, software, platform and infrastructure services- created? 4. Mapping of SoEA to enterprise resources - Which resources are relevant for SoEA? - How are services mapped to enterprise resources? - Which approaches exist to map services to resources? - Which information system architectures are adequate for services? - How can non-functional requirements be mapped to capacity planning of resources? ----------- SUBMISSION ----------- Full papers (8-10 pages in the IEEE-CS format) describing mature results are sought. In addition, short papers (4 pages in the IEEE-CS format) may be submitted to initiate discussion around ideas or preliminary research results and ongoing projects. The paper selection will be based upon the relevance of a paper to the main topics, as well as upon its quality and potential to generate relevant discussion. All contributions will be peer reviewed based on the complete version, being full or short. The review process for the two types of papers will be different because of their distinct purposes. All papers published in the EDOC 2012 workshop proceedings must be in the IEEE Computer Society format (http://www2.computer.org/portal/web/cscps/formatting). It is strongly recommended that all papers are already in this format when they are first submitted to workshops. This gives precise picture of the paper length and avoids rework if the paper is accepted. Please submit your paper to Easychair at https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=soea4ee2012 At least one author of each accepted workshop paper will have to register for the whole EDOC 2012 conference and attend the workshop to present the paper. Analogously to previous years, there will be no workshop-only registration at EDOC 2012. If a paper is not presented in the workshop, it will be removed from the workshop proceedings published in the IEEE Xplore digital library. The SoEA4EE workshop has been a full day workshop in conjunction with EDOC’09 in New Zealand, with EDOC’10 in Brasil and with EDOC’11 in Finland. The link for the proceedings of EDOC 2009 workshops is: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/tocresult.jsp?isnumber=5331971&isYear=2009.

The link for the proceedings of EDOC 2011 workshops is: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/mostRecentIssue.jsp?punumber=6036125. ----------------- EXPECTED RESULTS ----------------- All papers will be published in the workshop wiki (www.soea4ee.org) before the workshop, so that everybody can learn about the problems that are important for other participants. The workshop will consist of long and short paper presentations, brainstorming sessions and discussions. A workshop report will be created collaboratively using the workshop wiki. ---------------- IMPORTANT DATES ---------------- Submission due: April 1, 2012 Notification: May 28, 2012 Camera-ready paper due: June 15, 2012 ------------------ PROGRAM COMMITTEE ------------------ João Paulo A.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] Call for Papers: Qualitätsmanagement und Vorgehensmodelle - Workshop der FG Vorgehensmodelle, 11./12.09.2012 Datum: Tue, 06 Mar 2012 16:02:59 +0100 Von: <oliver.linssen(a)web.de> Antwort an: <oliver.linssen(a)web.de> An: wi(a)lists.uni-karlsruhe.de ----------------------------------------------- 19. Workshop der Fachgruppe Vorgehensmodelle im Fachgebiet Wirtschaftsinformatik der Gesellschaft für Informatik e.V. ----------------------------------------------- -- ACHTUNG -- -- Erneuter Call for Papers -- -- wegen verschobenem Workshoptermin! -- ======================= ZWEITER CALL FOR PAPERS ======================= (Aufruf zur Einreichung von Beiträgen) Thema: Qualitätsmanagement und Vorgehensmodelle ----------------------------------------------- Workshoptermin: 11./12.09.2012 Ort: Information und Technik NRW (IT.NRW), Düsseldorf Webseite: http://www.vorgehensmodelle.de Inhaltliche Ausrichtung ----------------------- In einer nunmehr 19-jährigen Tradition haben sich die Workshops der Fachgruppe Vorgehensmodelle als wichtigste Veranstaltung zu diesem Thema im deutschsprachigen Raum etabliert. Die Workshops verfolgen das Ziel, Methoden und Ansätze im Bereich der Vorgehensmodelle sowie deren Umsetzung in der Praxis einem Fachpublikum aus Wissenschaftlern und Praktikern vorzustellen. Der intensiven Diskussion der vorgestellten Ansätze sowie dem Erfahrungsaustausch wird im Workshop traditionell eine besonders hohe Bedeutung zugemessen. Der Workshop des Jahres 2012 hat den Themenschwerpunkt "Qualitätsmanagement und Vorgehensmodelle". Er wird in Kooperation mit der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Qualität e.V. (DGQ), Information und Technik Nordrhein-Westfalen (IT.NRW), dem Bundesverwaltungsamt, der GPM Region Düsseldorf/ Rhein-Ruhr und der GI Regionalgruppe Düsseldorf durchgeführt. Trotz aller präzisen Definitionen wird Qualität häufig völlig unterschiedlich interpretiert. Umso dringender stellt sich die Frage, inwiefern sich das Thema Qualität im Rahmen von Vorgehensmodellen systematisieren lässt. Im Bereich der Softwareentwicklung bzw. des Software Engineerings kommt erschwerend hinzu, dass eine klare Definition des Begriffs Qualität noch nicht verfügbar ist und viele verschiedene Techniken und Methoden um die Gunst der Anwender buhlen. Zwar sind Techniken wie das Unit Testing oder Reviews weit verbreitet und akzeptiert - doch sind diese Techniken bereits ein Qualitätsmanagement? Ungeklärt ist dazu auch die Frage, wie sich solche Techniken in Vorgehensmodellen wiederfinden. Wie werden Vorgehensmodelle aus der Sicht des Qualitätsmanagements eingeordnet? Werden sie als Werkzeug des Qualitätsmanagements betrachtet? Werden im Qualitätsmanagement andere Konzepte verwendet, um Projektprozesse zu modellieren? Wann sind bestimmte Techniken vorteilhaft und wann nicht? Bieten Vorgehensmodelle einen adäquaten Rahmen, insbesondere zur Einplanung solcher Maßnahmen/Techniken? Bieten Vorgehensmodelle geeignete Modellierungstechniken hierfür an, und wie lassen sich belastbare Aussagen bezüglich des Qualitätsmanagements in Softwareprojekten treffen? Das Thema Qualitätsmanagement in Organisationen und Projekten und seine Beziehung zu Vorgehensmodellen kann aus vielen verschiedenen Perspektiven diskutiert werden. Erbeten werden daher Beiträge, welche die Abhängigkeiten zwischen Qualitätsmanagement und Vorgehensmodellen beleuchten und aufzeigen, wie sich Qualitätsmanagement und Vorgehensmodelle positionieren und integrieren. Themenvorschläge ---------------- - Bewertung von Entwicklungsprozessen ("guter" vs. "schlechter" Prozess) - Modellierung von Entwicklungsprozessen/Vorgehensmodellen unter Berücksichtigung des Qualitätsmanagements - Bewertung der Güte von Beschreibungstechniken für Vorgehensmodelle - Positionierung von Qualitätsmanagement auf der Organisations- und der Projektebene unter Berücksichtigung von Vorgehensmodellen - Qualitätsgetriebene Auswahl von projektspezifischen Vorgehensmodellen - Qualitätsmessung und Bewertung von Vorgehensmodellen - Grundsätzliche Auswahlkriterien für Methoden und Prozesse - Dynamische Anpassung von Prozessen zur Erreichung von Qualitätszielen - Empirische Untersuchungen von Projekten unter Berücksichtigung von Qualitätsaspekten - Empirische Untersuchungen von Vorgehensmodellen unter Berücksichtigung von Qualitätsaspekten - Innovative Verfahren für Qualitätsmanagement, -planung, -durchführung, -messung und -verbesserung - Integrationsoptionen von Qualitätsmaßnahmen in Vorgehensmodellen - Automatisierung von Qualitätsmanagement, -sicherung und Vorgehensmodellen - Qualitätsmanagement in der Normung Workshop-Beiträge und Tagungsband --------------------------------- Jeder Workshop-Beitrag besteht aus einem Vortrag von 20 bzw. 30 Minuten, der die Kernthesen des Beitrags vorstellen sollte, sowie einer anschließenden Diskussion im Plenum. Ergänzend dazu wird der eingereichte Beitrag im Tagungsband veröffentlicht. Es werden zwei Arten von Beiträgen akzeptiert: Kurzbeiträge umfassen max. 5 und Langbeiträge max. 10 Seiten der Formatvorlage. Sie sollen Grafiken, Tabellen und Referenzen enthalten und müssen Veröffentlichungsqualität haben.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] Fwd: CfP: International Workshop on Information Value Management (ICEIS 2012 Workshop) Datum: Tue, 06 Mar 2012 14:03:15 +0000 Von: Markus Helfert <markus.helfert(a)computing.dcu.ie> Antwort an: Markus Helfert <markus.helfert(a)computing.dcu.ie> An: wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de ********************************************************** International Workshop on Information Value Management conjoined with 14th International Conference on Enterprise Information Systems (ICEIS) 28th June, 2012 - Wroclaw, Poland http://www.iceis.org/IVM.aspx ********************************************************** Deadline for paper submissions: 30th March, 2012 Background and Rational ======================= The information systems literature has consistently emphasized the need for alignment of information systems with organizational goals and strategies and its impact on organizational performance. One of the key challenges and subject of continuous debate focuses on how to achieve, measure, increase and manage information and the value it creates to organisations. It has been concern to researchers and management for many years and the difficulty in measuring less tangible benefits has been emphasized. Information creates not only value in financial terms but also in terms of operational and strategic advantages. Thus exploring the value of information and its management is crucial to the success of world-leading organizations. The value of information can be determined by its importance to and the impact information has on the business operations such as decision making, strategy development or optimizing supply chains. However, the issue of how to manage the value of information is still challenging and research so far could only address limited aspects. It has been argued that if information result in enhanced business value, the focus needs to shift from project based cost/benefit analysis to managing the overall value creation of information. Furthermore, over the last decade a move from solely technical aspects to a combination of multiple contextual factors such as technology, sector, organizational culture, and management style can be observed. With this workshop we aim to go beyond traditional IT productivity and cost evaluations; we view information as a crucial asset that creates value to an organizations, and thus needs to be managed accordingly for optimal business value. In this workshop, we aim to provide a platform for discussing approaches, models, results and case studies or experience reports addressing a broad range of issues related to Information Value Management. Research challenges include how to determine the Value of Information and its impact on business performance, managing Data and Information Quality, capturing and maintaining Information Assets, and designing and improving Information Manufacture System. Papers can include and discuss various research methods and can be based on case studies, quantitative and quantitative methods, design science as well as experimental and simulation. In addition practical oriented research and experience reports are encouraged. Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following list: ================== Determining Information Value Data and Information Quality Specifying and Measuring the Benefits from Information Information Value Chains Information Manufacture and Information Product Optimising Information Value Information Lifecycle Concepts Modelling and Visualising Information Manufacturing Systems Information Risk Management Data Integration and Value Creation Analytical IS and Value Creation IVM Maturity Models IVM Capabilities IT Governance and IVM Management Approaches for IVM Change Management and IVM Paper submissions ================= Prospective authors are invited to submit papers in any of the topics listed above.
