Given the global realisation about the long term effects of
human and business activities on the natural environment and
the pace and magnitude of environmental deterioration,
businesses are under increasing pressure to engage in
ecologically sustainable practices in addition to pursuing
economical and social outcomes. In this context, the impact
and the role of Information Systems (IS) in ecological
sustainability has emerged as key IS management issues and
field of IS research. Thus IS managers and researchers are
presented with opportunities to investigate and provide
solutions not only to the problem of reducing the ecological
footprint of IS but also how the innovative use of IS can
transform and reduce the environmental impact of
individuals, organisations and society and thus provide
leadership in sustainability. The Green IS track will
explore the development, impact and role of IS in
sustainability initiatives.
Topics
*Theories and methods applied to Green IS and IT research
*Case studies of Green IS and IT
*Adoption and Diffusion of Green IT/IS solutions
*Enterprise Green IT/IS technologies and practises
*End user Green IT/IS technologies and practices
*Energy Informatics
*Lifecycle assessment of e-billing, videoconferencing,
teleworking
*The ecological value of virtualisation, cloud computing,
software as a service

--FCA4AI--
"What can FCA do for Artificial Intelligence?''
Workshop at ECAI 2012
August 27, 2012 (tentative)
Montpellier, France
http://www.fca4ai.hse.ru
--------------------------------------------------------------------
=GENERAL=
Formal Concept Analysis (FCA) is a mathematically well-founded
theory aimed at data analysis and classification. FCA gives rise to
versatile data structures such as concept lattices and systems of
dependencies (implications) which can be used for a plethora of AI
needs, involving learning, knowledge discovery, knowledge
representation and reasoning, ontology engineering, as well as
information retrieval and text processing. Consequently, FCA and AI
are intimately related in terms of the pursued goals and employed
methods.
Recent years have been witnessing increased scientific activity
around FCA. In particular, a strand of work has emerged that is
aimed at extending the possibilities of FCA w.r.t. knowledge
processing, such as work on pattern structures, relational context
analysis and exploration-based ontology completion. These extensions
are aimed at enabling FCA to deal with more complex than just binary
data, from the data analysis and knowledge discovery point of view
but also from the perspective of knowledge representation as
employed in, e.g., ontology engineering. All these works extend the
capabilities of FCA and open up new chances and challenges for AI
activities in the framework of FCA.
Accordingly, in this workshop, we will be interested in two main
issues:
- How can FCA support AI activities such as knowledge processing
(knowledge discovery, knowledge representation and reasoning),
learning (clustering, pattern and data mining), natural language
processing, and information retrieval?
- How can FCA be extended in order to help AI researchers to solve
new and complex problems in their domain?
=TOPICS OF INTEREST=
The workshop's topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Concept lattices and related structures: description logics,
pattern structures, relational structures.
- Knowledge discovery and data mining with FCA: association rules,
itemsets and data dependencies, attribute implications, data
pre-processing, redundancy and dimensionality reduction,
classification and clustering.
- Knowledge engineering and ontology engineering: knowledge
representation and reasoning.
- Scalable algorithms for concept lattices and artificial
intelligence ``in the large'' (distributed aspects, big data).
- Applications of concept lattices: semantic web, information
retrieval, visualization and navigation, pattern recognition.
The workshop will include time for audience discussion toward a
better understanding of the issues, challenges, and ideas being
presented.
=IMPORTANT DATES=
Submission deadline: May 25, 2012
Notification: June 30, 2012
Final version: July 25, 2012
Workshop: August 27, 2012
=SUBMISSION DETAILS=
The workshop welcomes submissions in pdf format in Springer's LNCS
style. Submissions can be
- technical papers not exceeding 8 pages,
- system descriptions or position papers on work in progress not
exceeding 4 pages
Submissions are via EasyChair at
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fca4ai2012
The workshop proceedings will be published as CEUR proceedings.
In addition, the organizers will apply for a special issue of an
international journal where extended versions of selected papers of
the workshop shall be published.

Call for Papers:
18th International Conference on Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge
Management (EKAW 2012)
National University of Ireland Galway Quadrangle
October 8-12, 2012.
http://ekaw2012.ekaw.org <http://ekaw2012.ekaw.org/>
The 18th International Conference on Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge
Management is concerned with all aspects of eliciting, acquiring,
modeling and managing knowledge, and 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, etc.
The special focus of the 18th edition of EKAW will be on "Knowledge
Engineering and Knowledge Management that matters". We are explicitly
calling for papers that have a potentially high impact on a specific
community or application domain (e.g. pharmacy and life sciences), as
well as for papers which report on the development or evaluation of
publicly available data sets relevant for a large number of
applications. Moreover, we welcome contributions dealing with problems
specific to modeling and maintenance of real-world data or knowledge,
such as scalability and robustness of knowledge-based applications, or
privacy and provenance issues related to organizational knowledge
management.
In addition to the main research track, EKAW 2012 will feature a
tutorial and workshop program, as well as a poster and demo track.
Moreover, there will be a Doctoral Consortium giving new PhD students a
possibility to present their research proposals, and to get feedback on
methodological and practical aspects of their planned dissertation.
The proceedings of the conference will be published by Springer Verlag
in the LNCS series. The LNCS volume will contain the contributed
research papers as well as descriptions of the demos presented at the
conference. Papers published at any of the workshops will be published
in dedicated workshop proceedings.
EKAW 2012 welcomes papers dealing with theoretical, methodological,
experimental, and application-oriented aspects of knowledge engineering
and knowledge management. In particular, but not exclusively, we solicit
papers about methods, tools and methodologies relevant with regard to
the following topics:
1) “Knowledge Management and Knowledge Engineering that matters”
• Real-world applications of methods for knowledge management and
engineering in domains such as
- e-Government and public administration
- Life sciences, health and medicine
- Automotive and manufacturing industry

• Development and evaluation of publicly available knowledge
repositories for new applications or domains
• Methods and methodologies addressing the challenges of real-world
data, e.g.,
- Scalability, robustness etc.
- Maintenance costs and financial risks
- Privacy and data security
• Lessons learned from case studies, e.g.,
- Knowledge management in large organizations
- Adoption of semantic web technologies
- Maintenance of corporate knowledge repositories
2) Knowledge Management
• Methodologies and tools for knowledge management
• Knowledge sharing and distribution, collaboration

• Ontology alignment
• Knowledge authoring and semantic annotation
• Knowledge acquisition from non-ontological resources (thesauri,
folksonomies etc.)
• Semi-automatic knowledge acquisition, e.g., ontology learning
• Mining the Semantic Web and the Web of Data
• Ontology evaluation and metrics
• Uncertainty and vagueness in knowledge representation
• Dealing with dynamic, distributed and emerging knowledge
4) Social and Cognitive Aspects of Knowledge Representation
• Knowledge representation inspired by cognitive science
• Synergies between humans and machines
• Knowledge emerging from user interaction and networks
• Knowledge ecosystems
• Expert finding, e.g., by social network analysis
• Trust and privacy in knowledge representation
• Collaborative and social approaches to knowledge management and
acquisition
• Crowdsourcing in knowledge management
As last EKAW conference we will accept different types of papers. The
papers will all have the same status and follow the same formatting
guidelines in the proceedings but will receive special treatment during
the reviewing phase. In particular, each paper type will be subject to
own evaluation criteria. The PC will also make sure that there is a
reasonable balance of the paper types accepted. At submission time the
paper has to be clearly identified as belonging to one of the following
categories.
• Research papers: These are “standard” papers presenting a novel
method, technique or analysis with appropriate empirical or other types
of evaluation as proof-of concept. The main evaluation criteria here
will be originality, technical soundness and validation.
• In-use papers: Here we are expecting papers describing applications of
knowledge management and engineering in real environments. Applications
need to address a sufficiently interesting and challenging problem on
real-world datasets, involving many users etc. The focus is less on the
originality of the approach and more on presenting systems that solve a
significant problem while addressing the particular challenges that come
with the use of real-world data. Evaluations should involve a
representative subset of the actual users of the system.
• Position papers: We invite researchers to also publish position papers
which describe novel and innovative ideas. Position papers may also
comprise an analysis of currently unsolved problems, or review theses
problems from a new perspective, in order contribute to a better
understanding of these problem in the research community. We expect that
such papers will guide future research by highlighting critical
assumptions, motivating the difficulty of a certain problem or
explaining why current techniques are not sufficient, possibly
corroborated by quantitative and qualitative arguments.
Submissions of research and in-use papers should comprise a maximum of
15 pages formatted according to Springer Verlag LNCS guidelines and
uploaded using Easychair (
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ekaw2012). Position papers
are required to have at most 5 pages in the same format.
We will select the best papers from EKAW and invite the authors for a
special edition of Journal of Data Semantics.

SASO 2012 - (DEADLINE EXTENDED) CALL FOR PAPERS
6th IEEE International Conference on Self-Adaptive and Self-Organizing Systems
Lyon, France; 10-14 September 2012 --- http://saso2012.univ-lyon1.fr/
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The aim of the SASO conference series is to provide a forum for presenting the latest results about self-adaptive and self-organizing systems, networks and services. To this end, the meeting aims to attract participants with different backgrounds, to foster cross-pollination between research fields, to expose and discuss innovative theories, frameworks, methodologies, tools, and applications, and to identify new challenges. The complexity of current and emerging computing systems has led the software engineering, distributed systems and management communities to look for inspiration in diverse fields (e.g., complex systems, control theory, artificial intelligence, sociology, biology, etc.) to find new ways of designing and managing networks, systems and services. In this endeavor, self-organization and self-adaptation have emerged as two promising interrelated facets of a paradigm shift.
Self-adaptive systems work in a top down manner. They evaluate their own global behavior and change it when the evaluation indicates that they are not accomplishing what they were intended to do, or when better function or performance is possible. A challenge is often to identify how to change specific behaviors to achieve the desired improvement. Self-organizing systems work bottom up. They are composed of a large number of components that interact locally according to typically simple rules. The global behavior of the system emerges from these local interactions. Here, a challenge is often to predict and control the resulting global behavior.

Topics of Interest
------------------
The SASO conference is interested in both theoretical and practical aspects of systems exhibiting self-* characteristics. A particular focus is the modeling of natural, man-made and social systems that exhibit self-adaptation and self-organization characteristics as well as the constructive use of the underlying basic principles in technical systems. The sixth edition of SASO particularly encourages submissions from the following, non-exclusive list of topic areas:
- Principles, Theory, Methods and Architectures for SASO Systems
- Robustness, Resilience and Fault-Tolerance in/with Self-* Systems
- Self-* Behavior in Communication Networks
- (Self-)Control, (Self-)Observation, (Self-)Monitoring of Engineered Systems
- Collective Phenomena in Social and Socio-Technical Systems
- Self-Organization and Self-Adaptation in Biological/Natural Systems
- Applications of Spatial and Physics-Inspired Self-Organization
- SASO Principles in Cyber-Security
- SASO Principles in Collective Robotic Systems
- SASO Principles in Cyber-Physical Systems
- Real-World Experience with Engineered Systems Exhibiting Self-* Properties
All contributions must present novel theoretical or experimental results, or practical approaches and experiences in building or deploying real-world systems and applications. Contributions that contrast "conventional" engineering principles with novel approaches making use of SASO principles are especially welcome.
Submissions Instructions
All submissions should be 10 pages and formatted according to the IEEE Computer Society Press proceedings style guide and submitted electronically in PDF format. Please register as authors and submit your papers using the SASO 2012 conference management system. The proceedings will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press, and made available as a part of the IEEE digital library. Note that a separate call for poster and demo submissions has also been issued.
Emerging Topic Papers
---------------------
In addition to regular papers, SASO also encourages the submission of papers on emerging topics. These submissions should be clearly marked as such (indicating "Emerging Topic:" in the title) and should provide a well-rounded survey of novel questions, methods and abstractions that are relevant for the design of SASO systems along with a clear indication of the possible impact on the SASO community. In this category we particularly encourage submissions that present innovative applications of methodological frameworks being used in other fields of science that study SASO related phenomena, thus highlighting connections and potential for collaboration between different scientific communities.
