Soft Computing Approaches for Human-Autonomous Agent
Communication
Frederick E. Petry (Naval Research Laboratory, Stennis Space
Center, MS, USA) and Ronald R. Yager (Machine Intelligence
Institute, Iona College, New Rochelle, NY, USA)
This paper describes soft computing approaches for
human-agent communications in the context of influencing
decision making behavior. Several methods are illustrated
including using a person's predispositions and
generalization techniques that allow issues to be viewed in
a more favorable light with social interaction persuasion
tendencies modeled with soft computing. The context of a
robotic assistant for the elderly is used to illustrate the
various communication techniques. Finally the related topic
of negotiations using some the developed techniques is
presented.

A Quantitative Analysis of the English Lexicon in
Wiktionaries and WordNet
Andrew Krizhanovsky (Institution of the Russian Academy of
Sciences - Institute of Applied Mathematical Research of the
Karelian Research Centre, Karelia, Russia)
A quantitative analysis of the English lexicon was done in
the paper. The three electronic dictionaries are under
examination: the English Wiktionary, WordNet, and the
Russian Wiktionary. It was calculated the quantity of
English words and meanings (senses) in these dictionaries.
The distribution of words for each part of speech, the
quantity of monosemous and polysemous words and the
distribution of words by number of meanings were calculated
and compared across these dictionaries. The analysis shows
that the average polysemy, the number and the distribution
of word senses follow similar patterns in both expert and
collaborative resources with relatively minor differences.

An Intelligent Particle Swarm Optimization for Fuzzy Based
Heterogeneous Radio Access Technology (RAT) Selection
J. Preethi (Department of Computer Science and Engineering,
Anna University of Technology, Coimbatore, India) and S.
Palaniswami (Government College of Engineering, Bargur, India)
The future wireless networks are heterogeneous in nature
where different Radio Access Technologies (RATs) coexist in
the same coverage area. The user terminal has to select the
best access technology among Wireless Local Area Network
(WLAN), Wireless Wide Area Network (WWAN), and Universal
Mobile Telecommunication Systems (UMTS) etc. at its current
location. Thus, selecting the appropriate RAT and cell
becomes a complex problem in heterogeneous network due to
number of variables involved in the selection process. The
main objective of this work in the heterogeneous networks is
to maximize the percentage of satisfied users who are
assigned to the networks. Henceforth, this paper presents an
innovative mechanism for the selection of heterogeneous
networks such as WWAN and WLAN. The performance of the
proposed algorithm is evaluated using 1000 datasets. From
the simulation results, it is found that the proposed
algorithm gives highest probability for mobile user
satisfaction than the existing methods.

*PAPER FOUR*
An Intelligent and Dynamic Decision Support System for
Nonlinear Environments
S. Uma (Hindusthan Institute of Technology, Tamil Nadu,
India) and J. Suganthi (Department of Computer Science and
Engineering, Hindusthan College of Engineering and
Technology, Tamil Nadu, India)
Nonlinear time series systems are high dimensional and
chaotic in nature. Since, the design of a dynamic and
efficient decision making system is a challenging task, a
Support Vector Machine (SVM) based model is proposed to
predict the future event of a nonlinear time series
environment. This model is a non-parametric model that uses
the inherent structure of the data for forecasting. The
Hybrid Dimensionality Reduction (HDR) and Extended Hybrid
Dimensionality Reduction (EHDR) techniques are proposed to
represent the time series data and to reduce the
dimensionality and control noise besides subsequencing the
time series data. The proposed SVM based model using EHDR is
compared with the models using Symbolic Aggregate
approXimation (SAX), HDR, SVM using Kernel Principal
Component Analysis(KPCA) and SVM using varying tube size
values for historical data on different financial
instruments. The experimental results have proved that the
prediction accuracy of the proposed model is better compared
with other models taken for the experimentation.

*PAPER FIVE*
Optimal Strategy for the Smartphone Industry in Taiwan: HTC
Case Study
Yi-Fen Chen (Chung Yuan Christian University, Chung Li,
Taiwan), Bi-Chu Chen (Jinwen University of Science and
Technology, New Taipei City, Taiwan), Wen-Yu Chen (Chinese
Culture University, Taipei, Taiwan), Chia-Wen Tsai (Ming
Chuan University, Taipei, Taiwan) and Wei-Hung Lin (Chung
Yuan Christian University, Chung Li, Taiwan)
Smartphone development has opened the door to many future
business opportunities. Many smartphone manufacturers in
Taiwan have received orders from large international
companies (mainly as OEMs or ODMs), while only few
manufacturers have developed their own brands. If the
authors can provide these enterprises with an effective
decision-making strategy, they will be able to make the best
decisions in time. The purpose of this paper is to take
critical success factors (CSFs) and the existing internal
capabilities of an enterprise in an external environment
into account to build an operational model guide that
enterprise in its decision making process. This study
combined the Delphi method and the analytic network process
(ANP) model to construct a decision model, calculate the
weighting of every criterion and sub-criterion, and
determine the optimal decision-making strategy in the
smartphone industry. Then, the authors chose the HTC
Corporation as a case study. The results showed that the
development trend of the smartphone industry was the
integration of mobile phones. The strategy of excellent
functions strategy is the optimal strategy for the
implementation of the alternatives.

supply chain partners to develop more sustainable business
practices across supply chains.
*Description of Main Theme and Potential Topics:*
Sustainability has increasingly become important to business
research and practice over the past decades as a result of
rapid depletion of natural resources and concerns over
wealth disparity and corporate social responsibility.
Sustainability research and practices have recognized that
business performance should be evaluated based on its
impacts on the environment and interested stakeholders
besides profitability, known as the triple bottom line
(TBL). Companies have increasingly recognized that business
strategy that boldly embrace sustainability have resulted in
companies? being successful in delivering financial,
environmental, and social values to themselves as well as
related stakeholders (MIT Sloan Management Review report, 2011).
In order to develop capabilities to address TBL issues,
businesses need to engage in wide ranging activities such as
changing business culture, redesigning business processes,
etc. (Hart & Milstein, 2003; Porter & Kramer, 2006). More
importantly, research as well as management practice have
illustrated that to be truly sustainable, companies should
not only just focus on their own business operations but
also focus on improving sustainable business practices
across the supply chain (Kleindorfer, Singhal, & Van
Wassenhove, 2005; Dao, Langella, & Carbo, 2011).
Given the recognized role of IT resources in enabling
business capabilities within and across supply chain
partners (Rai, Patnayakuni, & Seth, 2006; Jain, Wadhwa, &
Deshmukh, 2009), it is arguable that IT resources should be
critical in enabling firms to develop capabilities to
address sustainability issues both within firms and across
their supply chain through coordination with supply chain
partners (Melville, 2010; Dao et al., 2011). We invite
research from different business areas, including MIS,
management, supply chain and operation management, and
particularly inter-disciplinary research that examines the
role of IT resources in conjunction with other business
resources in enabling firms to develop sustainability
strategy that address all aspects of the triple bottom line,
both within firms and across supply chain partners. Topics
of interest include, but not limited to:
- IS in enabling sustainable innovation
- Intertwining of environmentally and socially sustainable
practices
- IS in enabling environmentally and socially sustainable
operations (including direct environmental impact of data
centers, power consumption and conservation, etc.)
- IS in supply chain partners? coordination for sustainability
- Sustainability vision within and across firms
- The role of IS in enabling the assessment of
sustainability performance

PRESENTATION
Innovation is a key enabler for enterprises to compete in
global markets, especially in difficult economic periods.
An innovation process is different from a 'usual' business
process we find in an enterprise that is (supposedly) well
defined in its activities, committed resources, etc. Innovation
is a creative activity confronted with 'wicked problems', i.e.,
problems difficult to solve because of incomplete, contradictory,
changing requirements. The NGEBIS workshop intends to address
the area of business innovation that has been traditionally
considered too fuzzy and ill-defined to be systematically tackled
by using existing information systems and information engineering
methods. We expect that accepted papers will contribute to the
development of methods to be used in the implementation of a new
generation of information systems dedicated to business innovation,
with particular attention to networked enterprises.
This year the NGEBIS'13 will be articulated in the following sections:
(i) Presentation oriented section, with peer review papers (12 pages),
to be included in the official CAiSE Workshops proceedings
(ii) Discussion-oriented section, with (a) demos of new tools and
systems, (b) posters, and (c) Emerging Ideas short papers.
The short papers (5 pages) will be published in CEUR e-Proceedings.
(iii) Knowledge Café: composed by 3 rotating parallel panels that
will freely discuss the 3 most hot topics that will emerge during a
3 month WOW Forum. The outcome will be published on CEUR.
(iv) WOW - Window on Online Workshop Forum, for online discussion
on a selected Social Network (such as LinkedIn), that starts 3 months
before the workshop debating to identify the 3 hottest issue among
NGEBIS topics that will be selected for the Knowledge Cafè to be held on
site.

First CALL FOR PAPERS
Mini-Track "Virtual Communities: Services, Business Models,
and Crowd Creation"
19th Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS)
August 15-17, 2013, Chicago, Illinois, USA
AMCIS 2013 website http://amcis2013.aisnet.org/

<http://www.virtual-community.org/>
============================================================================
=== SCOPE ===
Virtual communities (VC) and social networking based on
social networking sites, message boards, chat rooms, user
groups and blogs have emerged as high activity domains on
the Internet. VC and social networks are designed for a
variety of purposes, ranging from Communities of Interest,
Communities of Relationship (Facebook, etc.), or Innovation
Communities (Dell Idea Storm, etc.). Web 2.0 Mechanisms are
also boosting the development of VC and the role of
user-generated content within VC. The significance of these
communities is evident by the impact they have on
information generation and transmission, and socialization.
For example, today, blogs are quickly becoming a primary
source of information in a variety of domains. But also the
generation of innovations or the sourcing of tasks is
achieved through communities as the examples of oDesk or
Innocentive illustrate.
Within the field of IS researchers are interested in
studying interaction patterns, social structures,
transaction processes, management aspects, business models,
and design aspects of information systems and services for
VC. Further related issues are trust, network effects,
transaction costs as well as the generation of innovations.
"Wisdom of Crowds", "Collective Intelligence" and
"Crowdsourcing" are important new terms describing
mechanisms around user-generated content in VC and Social
Networks.
=== SUGGESTED TOPICS ===
Despite the increasing popularity of VC and social
networking, several questions relating to VC and social
networking remain largely unexplored. We call for papers on
all aspects of VC. We welcome empirical, conceptual and
theoretical work. Possible topics include (but are not
limited to):
* Social, political and economic impact of Virtual Communities
* Community models, platforms, services, and interactions,
multi-channel communities
* Management and organizational behaviour of communities
* Community-related business models
* Innovation generation and Virtual Communities (e.g. case
studies on "wisdom of crowds", "collective intelligence", etc.)
* User-generated content and customer collaboration in
Virtual Communities
* Peer-to-Peer or mobile services for Virtual Communities
* Crowdsourcing through communities
* Case studies and empirical studies, best practices and
lessons learned
* Motivation of participants in virtual communities
* Benefits of participation in and competition among virtual
communities
* Information dispersion in virtual communities
* Typologies and taxonomies of virtual communities
* Evolution of and innovation in virtual communities
* Gaming Communities
=== IMPORTANT DATES ===

Minitrack Description
==================
Research into knowledge management (KM), organizational
memories, and organizational learning has been affected by
investigations such as implementation aspects, system
developments, or knowledge flows during a number of years.
Therefore, a high maturity level of KM research has been
achieved. However, organizational KM initiatives are more
and more faced with budget cuts and justification demands
due to intense competition in today’s business environments.
The influences of the rapid pace of globalization and of the
ongoing liberalization of national and international markets
lead to the emergence of increased pressure on existing
companies. Project managers of KM initiatives like Chief
Knowledge Officers need to justify their budgets and thus
are in need of qualitative and quantitative evidence of the
initiatives’ success. In addition, ROI calculations and
traditional accounting approaches do not tell an adequate
story when proposing knowledge-based initiatives. This
minitrack explores research into strategies, methodologies,
and stories that relate to measure this success. In
addition, this minitrack will be used to explore the bodies
of performance measurements that define the current state of
research in measuring KM, organizational memory, and
organizational learning success. Eventually, another purpose
of this minitrack is to present research on how to value
knowledge-based initiatives.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
=======================================
* Frameworks and models for assessing knowledge management
and/or organizational memory systems
* Methodologies and processes for measuring knowledge
management and/or organizational memory success and performance
* Impact of knowledge management strategy, organization,
systems, culture, and other issues on knowledge
management/organizational memory success
* Organizational effectiveness/efficiency due to knowledge
management/organizational memory/organizational learning,
knowledge and organizational memory use
* Knowledge management, organizational memory, and
organizational learning metrics
* Knowledge management, organizational memory, and
organizational learning success factors and key performance
indicators
* Benchmarking of knowledge management/organizational memory
initiatives
* Case studies of knowledge management and organizational
memory success and performance measurements
* Measuring knowledge management and/or organizational
memory performance in global organizations and globally
dispersed communities
* Effectiveness and/or efficiency of knowledge
management/organizational memory systems
* Modeling and measuring the impact of social software on
knowledge management performance
* Defining knowledge management and organizational memory
success
* Rigorous anecdotes and user stories and their theoretical
basis to facilitate the value of knowledge-based initiatives
* Developing grounded theory approaches to valuing
knowledge-based initiatives
