-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] Final CFP: 4th International Conference on Software Business (ICSOB-13) Datum: Mon, 7 Jan 2013 07:17:31 +0000 Von: Luoma Eetu <eetu.luoma(a)jyu.fi> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Final Call for Papers Fourth International Conference on Software Business June 11-14, 2013, Potsdam, Germany Conference homepage: http://www.icsob.org Online submission: http://senldogo0039.springer-sbm.com/ocs/home/ICSOB2013 Theme: From Physical Products to Software Services and Solutions Advancements in the software industry have had a substantial impact not only on productivity and on GDP growth globally, but also on our daily work and live. Moreover there is a noticeable spillover within other industries (e.g. manufacturing) enabling new business models: companies bundle their physical products and software services into solutions (e.g. using subscription models) and start to sell independent software products in addition to physical products.Software business refers to commercial activities in and around the software industry, aimed at generating income from the delivery of software products and software services. Although the software business shares common features with other international knowledge-intensive businesses, it carries many inherent features making it a challenging domain for research. In particular software companies have to depend on one another to deliver a unique value proposition to their customers. Moreover recent developments like the emerging app economy offer a variety of opportunities for entrepreneurs or start-up companies. ICSOB 2013 addresses researchers and practitioners, who are concerned with software business in different ways as well as the start-up community, which is increasingly focusing on mobile and social software. Location: The International Conference on Software Business (ICSOB 2013) will be held at the University of Potsdam. Its Griebnitzsee campus is located near the capital of Germany, Berlin. Call for Papers: You are invited to submit papers addressing contemporary issues emerging at the intersection of the software and business domains, broadly defined. Both papers reporting research results and industrial experiences are welcome. Invited are original submissions on the topics listed below, including but not limited to: Special sessions this year: * Entrepreneurship and startup companies * Productization, Servification, and Servitization * Software in the Healthcare domain And regular themes of the conference series: * Software Platforms and Ecosystems * Corporate networks between software companies / Software Supply Networks * Business impacts of Cloud Computing * Software Product Management * Software business in the future * Licensing, Intellectual Property and Patent Issues (IP modularity) * Business models for software startups and existing software companies * App Economy * Impact of Megatrends towards software business (e.g. Customization) * ... Submission: Full research papers (12 pages), short papers (6 pages), industrial track presentations (abstract) and posters are all welcome. Accepted full papers and short papers will be included in the conference proceedings published by Springer as a volume in Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing (LNBIP) series (if at least one author of the paper attends the conference and presents the paper). You may also submit workshop proposals to the conference. For details and updates visit http://www.icsob.org.

Fwd: [AISWorld] CFP C3S2E 2013
by Gustaf Neumann 07 Jan '13

07 Jan '13

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP C3S2E 2013 Datum: Mon, 7 Jan 2013 09:25:35 +0000 Von: Paulo Rupino Cunha <rupino(a)dei.uc.pt> An: ISWorld list list <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Call for papers C3S2E'13 -  Sixth International C* Conference on Computer Science & Software Engineering Track: Bridging service design, business services, and software services DESCRIPTION Service science is a multidisciplinary area which studies service systems from various perspectives such as technological, business, psychological, economical and social. The main objective is to develop new theories, frameworks, and tools for understanding service innovation and provisioning within businesses and organizations. The research done so far has taken three main and distinct paths. On the one hand, the computer science community has been addressing services from a software perspective (e.g. by developing languages and frameworks to standardize the descriptions and interfaces, such as USDL, WSDL, and REST, of web-accessible services). This has originated extensive research on web services, service-oriented architectures, semantic web services, and service ontologies. The marketing community has been addressing services from the marketing and business perspective (e.g. through the standardization of best practices and controlling methodologies such as ITIL, COBIT, SERVQUAL, and CMMI-SVC). Some of the results of these efforts have been models for understanding and modeling service processes, models for understanding customer satisfaction and tools for measuring service quality have been some of the results. And a stream originating from service design has taken the design perspective (personas, blueprinting,...). It has targeted the deep dive into the world of actors within the service systems, aiming at the development and prototyping of scenarios for service improvements and innovations. A missing link in current research is the one that brings these streams together, bridging the worlds of Business, Service Design and IT Services, by providing theories, models and tools to support the end-to-end design and deployment of services in organizations. SUGGESTED TOPICS The objective of this track is to encourage more research in this topic by providing a forum for interested authors to disseminate their research, compare results, and exchange ideas. Possible topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Designing business as a service - Service business models - Design thinking in service design - Designing policies and frameworks for services - Designing service systems and service system integration - Services and innovation - Service architectural models and service modularity - Service description and specification languages - Cloud computing and software-as-a-service - Engineering for cloud-based applications - Engineering approaches to support services’ lifecycles - Customer integration and co-creation in IT projects - Integrated Business-to-IT modeling frameworks and tools - Evaluation of the impact of service design on IT solutions - Service quality assessment tools - Vertical industry specific IT services solutions and best practices - Impact of service design on current enterprise architecture frameworks IMPORTANT DATES Paper submission begins: 2013-01-01 Paper submission deadline: 2013-03-28 Acceptance notice: 2013-05-20 Camera-ready copies deadline: 2013-06-24 Conference dates: 2013-07-10 to 2012-07-12 CONFERENCE PUBLICATION The conference proceedings will be published by BytePress and added to ACM’s Digital Library. Selected best papers will be invited to create extended versions and submit to special issues of international journals.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP ICT in Transition Economies (AMCIS 2013) Datum: Fri, 4 Jan 2013 10:26:49 +0000 Von: Paulo Rupino Cunha <rupino(a)dei.uc.pt> An: ISWorld list <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Dear colleagues, It is time. The AMCIS 2013 submission site is now open at http://aisel.aisnet.org/amcis2013 Submission Deadline: Feb 22, 2013 @ 11:59pm CST Please consider submitting for the mini-track "ICT in Transition Economies" included in the track "ICTs in Global Development (SIGGlobDev)" http://amcis2013.aisnet.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=56… DESCRIPTION Transition economies are a particular case of emerging economies, including countries from the former eastern bloc and those that resulted from the breakup of the Soviet Union, which, in the last two decades, have abandoned the communist-style central planning system and committed to substantial reforms to adopt a free market approach. These fast growing transition economies play an increasingly significant role in the global market, with information and communication technologies (ICT) being a key driving force in this process. However, despite their growing importance, research that specifically addresses the specificities and different challenges of ICT in transition economies is still scarce, when compared with the body of knowledge for developed countries. The objective of this mini-track is to promote advances and dissemination of work done in this area. SUGGESTED TOPICS We are seeking papers dealing with ICT in the specific context of transition economies, but in their various facets, such as business, technical, social, political, cultural, economical, and legal. Possible topics of interest to this special issue include but are not limited to the following: • ICT service systems for a service economy; • ICT governance and management; • Design and deployment of ICT in small and medium enterprises; • Success factors, barriers and risks of ICT adoption; • Return on ICT investment (financial and other); • ICT in global supply chains; • Off-shoring and outsourcing of systems and services; • E-government and e-democracy; • Comparative cross-country research; • Country specific case studies; Paulo Rupino da Cunha University of Coimbra Department of Informatics Engineering Pólo II, 3030-290 Coimbra, Portugal rupino(a)dei.uc.pt Piotr Soja Cracow University of Economics Department of Computer Science Rakowicka 27, 31-510 Kraków, Poland eisoja(a)cyf-kr.edu.pl _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] CFP: Doctoral Consortium at the International Conference on Advanced Learning Technologies (ICALT 2013) Datum: Wed, 2 Jan 2013 11:40:36 -0700 Von: Sabine Graf <sabine.graf(a)ieee.org> An: <wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de> CALL FOR PAPERS DOCTORAL CONSORTIUM at the 13th IEEE International Conference on Advanced Learning Technologies (ICALT 2013) http://www.ask4research.info/icalt/2013/doctoral_consortium.php Beijing, China July 15-18, 2013 ***Deadline for submissions: February 1, 2013*** What is the Doctoral Consortium? ******************************** The Doctoral Consortium is a workshop for Ph.D. students from all over the world who are in the early phases of their dissertation work (i.e., in their first or second year). The goal of the Doctoral Consortium is to help students with their thesis and research plans by providing feedback and general advice on using the research environment in a constructive and international atmosphere. The Doctoral Consortium provides PhD students with the opportunity to meet and discuss with experts in their area. Students will present and discuss their thesis in the context of a well-known and established international conference outside of their usual university environment. Up to 10 Ph.D. students will have the opportunity to participate. Students will be required to pay the registration fees of the ICALT Conference (student rates). The Doctoral Consortium will consist of 3 sessions. The first session aims at giving students the chance to present their work to others and get familiar with the work of other PhD students in their area. Each PhD student will give a very brief presentation (about 3 minutes) about his/her work with focus on motivation and research problem. These presentations are followed by a poster exhibition where individual discussion about each student's work will take place. The third session aims at giving students feedback from an expert in their area and letting them discuss their work with him/her as well as with few other PhD students doing research in the respective area. After the notification of acceptance/rejection, each PhD student with an accepted paper will be assigned to a small group consisting of 3-4 PhD students and one expert in their area. Each group will start to communicate and exchange their papers so that all members of the group are familiar with the papers of each group member. During the third session, each small group will meet individually and further discussions of the works will take place with the expert in the respective research field and other PhD students. Call for Papers and Topics ************************** Submissions relating to any aspect of Advanced Learning Technologies research, development, and evaluation are welcomed, focusing on the main themes of ICALT2012. To apply for participation at the Doctoral Consortium, please submit a 2-page paper about your doctoral work using the ASK-Conference System at: http://www.ask4research.info/conference/upload.php. The paper should: * Provide the title of the PhD Research, the name of the PhD Student and the PhD Advisor and the Affiliated Organisation * Provide a motivation for the research, explaining what the problem in the respective field is and why it is a problem, * Clearly formulate the research question, * Sketch the research methodology that is to be applied, * Describe the expected contributions of the applicant to the research area, and describes how the research is innovative, novel or extends existing approaches to a problem. * Appropriately acknowledge the possible contribution of non-student advisors or collaborators Submissions will be judged on originality, significance, correctness, and clarity. Additionally, at the same time as the paper is submitted via the conference system, an email from the main supervisor must be sent to sabineg(a)athabascau.ca, karagian(a)uth.gr, and guang(a)bnu.edu.cn to confirm that the student is in his/her first or second year of PhD studies.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] FedCSIS 2013 - Call for Events Datum: Wed, 2 Jan 2013 23:54:08 +0100 Von: Radoslaw Rudek <radoslaw.rudek(a)ue.wroc.pl> Organisation: "ICCSA" An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> Call for Events Federated Conference on Computer Science and Information Systems Krakow, Poland, September 8-11, 2013 www.fedcsis.org The 2013 Federated Conference on Computer Science and Information Systems cordially invites you to consider contributing an Event (conference, symposium, workshop, consortium meeting, special session). The FedCSIS multi-conference consists of a significant number of recurring Events, but proposals for new associated Events are welcome until January 14, 2013. The Events can run over any span of time within the conference dates; from half-day to three days. The FedCSIS Events provide a platform for bringing together researchers, practitioners, and academia to present and discuss ideas, challenges, and potential solutions on established or emerging topics related to research and practice in computer science and information systems. The Events will be selected based on the scientific/technical interest and/or their relevance to practitioners in their topics, the clarity of the proposal in addressing the requested information, the innovativeness of the Event topics, and the capacity in the FedCSIS multi-conference program. In 2012, FedCSIS - held in Wroclaw, Poland - attracted 400 papers, of which 195 articles were accepted as full papers (acceptance rate of 48.75%). Some events accepted additionally short and poster papers. FedcSIS conference papers were published in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library, while Proceedings of the CSERC Workshop were published in the ACM Digital Library - two of three biggest repositories of academic publications in computer science - assuring a worldwide reach. Publications As in previous years, pre-Proceedings will be published on a USB memory stick given to FedCSIS participants. Next, papers presented during the conference will be published in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library, and posted at the conference WWW site. The IEEE proceedings will be published under an ISBN number (and an IEEE Catalog number), under a nonexclusive copyright. Such copyright implies that Events' organizers can and, indeed, are strongly encouraged to invite extended and revised papers for post-conference publications in high-quality journals, edited volumes, etc. Event Proposals Event proposals should include the following information (2 pages maximum): 1. The nature of the Event. 2. The title of the Event, and a clear description of the topic, including a brief justification. 3. The complete contact information of the Event organizers, including a link to their personal websites, and an overview of previous experiences with organization of scientific events. 4. Preliminary list of PC members who have agreed to join. 5. Indication of the expected number of papers/attendees to attend the Event. 6. Information of expected post-Event publications, of extended and revised papers, in high-quality journals, edited volumes, etc. Event organizers should email their proposals (in a single pdf file) by January 14, 2013, to the FedCSIS Secretariat at: secretariat(a)fedcsis.org More information concerning Event organization can be found at: http://fedcsis.org/node/39
