-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] LAST MILE: IEEE DEST-CEE 2013 - Submission Deadline: April 15, 2013 Date: Tue, 09 Apr 2013 10:44:11 +0200 From: Fulvio Frati <fulvio.frati(a)unimi.it> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org SUBMISSION DEADLINE APPROACHING: 15 APRIL, 2013 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IEEE DEST-CEE 2013 7th IEEE International Conference on Digital Ecosystems and Technologies Special Theme - Complex Environment Engineering 24-26 July 2013 -- Menlo Park, California, USA http://dest2013.digital-ecology.org/ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About IEEE DEST 2013: What are Digital Ecosystems? Digital Ecosystems inherit concepts of open, loosely coupled, demand-driven, domain clustered, agent-based self-organized collaborative environments where species/agents form a temporary coalition (or longer term) for a specific purpose or goals. Within this environment everyone is proactive and responsive for their own benefit or profit. The essence of digital ecosystems is the adoption of ecological system concepts, and creating value by making connections through collective intelligence and promoting collaboration instead of unbridled competition and ICT-based catalyst effects in a number of domains, to produce networked enriched communities and solutions. What are Digital Ecosystem Technologies? In the present Digital Age, strong development of digital network infrastructure has dominated our service delivery, economic growth and life style. Future applications in domains such as Health-Science, Energy, Social Networks and Logistics demand infrastructures that are more agile than those operated currently. Digital Ecosystems aim to capture the notion of such agile and adaptive infrastructures. Digital Ecosystem Technologies encompass the advent of the whole spectrum of Internet technologies, starting from the hyperlinked web towards pervasive internet applications, from Peer-to-Peer systems to Grid middleware, followed by Cloud Services, Agent technologies, Sensor Networks and Cyber Physical Systems, which has become a major theme for business process digitalization. Complex Environment Engineering - Special Theme for IEEE-DEST 2013 Today's global challenges such as in Energy and Sustainability, Healthcare and an Aging Society, Public Safety and Security, or Democracy and Participation/Involvement confront us with the most Complex Environments. Traditional ICT-support has often increased complexity, thus making the challenges even more severe. The Digital Ecosystem perspective aims to address the two-fold challenge of Complex Environment Engineering and Digital Ecosystem Technology mapping. The complexity of both the challenges and the technological solutions has to be acknowledged. IEEE DEST 2013 with its special theme of - Complex Environment Engineering recognizes the key role of business process data modeling, representation and privacy-aware analysis for Digital Ecosystems, and vice versa. In 2013, the distinguished SEED Inauguration Workshop "Building a Digital Ecosystem for Societal Empowerment" will take place in cooperation with IEEE DEST 2013. Further, the Innovation Adoption Forum underpins the importance of public-private partnership as the key for delivering sustainable solutions for our Complex Living and Business Environment -- and thus our Digital Ecosystem Habitat. Our Keynotes, Panels and Sessions will tackle the multifaceted challenges and solutions from various stakeholders' perspectives. Important Dates: - Submission of Tutorial: Dec 15, 2012 - Notification of Acceptance of Tutorial/Workshop/Special Session: Jan 15, 2013 - *Paper Submission: April 15, 2013* - Author Notification: May 6, 2013 - Camera Ready Version: May 20, 2013 Contact Information: Conference Secretary & Treasurer - Gaurangi Potdar Dest2013(a)digital-ecology.org <mailto:Dest2013@digital-ecology.org> Gaurangi(a)digital-ecology.org <mailto:Gaurangi@digital-ecology.org> Webmaster & Graphic Designer - Samin Mirgheshmi Samin(a)digital-ecology.org <mailto:Samin@digital-ecology.org> Paper Submission: Papers should be original works and up to 6 pages in length. All submitted papers will be peer reviewed by at least 3 independent reviewers. Papers submitted for this conference must be formatted to fit on A4 paper in a two column format. The author should use a word processor or desktop publishing system to produce a "camera ready" paper on A4 paper. All manuscripts submitted for this conference must be in IEEE Xplore-compatible PDF format. To assist authors in meeting this requirement , IEEE has established a web based service called PDF Xpress. We strongly suggest that you use this service. Complete information on the papers submission system for IEEE DEST 2013 will be made available shortly on http://dest2013.digital-ecology.org/index.php/paper-submission Conference Location and Context: The IEEE DEST-CEE 2013 will be hosted in Menlo Park, California. Situated in the heart of the Silicon Valley, it´s right in the epicenter of the Digital Ecosystem revolution. The research and innovation ecosystem here is legendary, fuelled by the unique spirit and entrepreneurship of The Valley and The Bay Area. Bridging the Bay, UC Berkeley and Stanford University are world renown for their global impact in science and technology, trends setting in society and ecology/sustainability, and economic development. Companies such as IBM, Intel, Google, Facebook linked-in and numerous other technology drivers are in direct proximity. From San Jose to Woodside to Berkeley, the spirit is "in the air" -- today as much as in the past decades. IEEE DEST-CEE 2013 will take place in the heart of the Silicon Valley, at stunning conference locations in Menlo Park and at Stanford University. People around the globe enjoy the Californian Way of Life, blending it´s vibrant socio-technological momentum with the tranquillity of the Pacific, it´s redwood forests, and San Francisco and Berkeley as the spirited places for those who still see it as the counter-culture centre of the Sixties. Free Speech and "Flower Power" are forever in Berkeley´s and San Francisco´s "DNA," as much as Venture Capital Companies and technology leaders team up in The Valley. IEEE DEST-CEE 2013 taps and gets involved into this ecosystem. We look forward to your involvement! SEED Inauguration Workshop Building a Digital Ecosystem for Societal Empowerment Pre-conference symposium: July 23, and then with IEEE DEST 2013 Conference Tracks: AREA I: FOUNDATIONS AND TECHNOLOGIES Area I deals with the basic ICT foundations of digital ecosystems, including large-scale, virtualized infrastructures, hosting ecosystem services and processes. Ecosystems require a novel approach to ICT technology development, closely related to the engineering of complex systems. Area I includes two one-day tracks that feature contributions on how the technological support for digital ecosystems is emerging. Track A: Foundations of Digital Ecosystems & Complex Environment Engineering Track B: Convergence of Technologies for Sustainable Infrastructures AREA II: SUSTAINABLE DOMAIN SOLUTIONS Area II presents contributions in various application domains, Just as the development of Smart Grids required the convergence of energy and information system infrastructures, radically new approaches to the design, convergence, and adoption of systems are required for future solutions in a variety of domains. Radically increasing the involvement of stakeholders with complex environments is one potential route for providing solutions in these domains, for example in energy systems or healthcare. In the longer term, approaches for enabling collaborative ecosystems may lead to high-impact solutions for today´s most pressing challenges. The "Sustainable Domain Solutions" tracks will identify domain requirements, research challenges and systems solutions with respect to the concept of Digital Ecosystems and Complex Environment Engineering, as outlined in the background and objectives of IEEE DEST 2013. Within this context, the tracks will focus on, but not be limited to, the issues like - Scalability and availability, with respect to large infrastructure platforms; evolvability, with respect to the introduction and life-cycle of service platforms; and usability, with respect to human factors and user benefits. Track C: Digital Humanities Track D: Cyber-Security Ecosystem Track E: Hybrid Biological-Digital Systems Track F: Healthcare and Sustainable Living Track G: Track I: Platforms for Social and Community Involvement / Engagement Track H: Cyber-Physical Energy Systems Track I: Collaborative Platforms for Sustainable Logistics and Transportation Track J: Fuzzy Semantic computing in digital ecosystems Track K: Big Data Ecosystems

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] BPD'13 CfP: 9th International Workshop on Business Process Design @BPM'13 Datum: Mon, 8 Apr 2013 01:57:55 +0000 Von: Marta Indulska <m.indulska(a)business.uq.edu.au> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> BPD2013 - 9th International Workshop on Business Process Design http://www.bpd-workshops.com/ In conjunction with: 11th International Conference on Business Process Management (http://bpm2013.tsinghua.edu.cn) 26-30 August, 2013 Beijing, China Paper submission deadline: 31st May 2013 Business Process Design is at the core of Business Process Management. As the most value-adding stage of the process lifecycle, it is dedicated to the development of improved and compliant business processes. Designing a process that improves corporate performance is a challenging task that requires multi-disciplinary expertise and a plethora of inputs (for example, organizational strategies, goals, constraints, human and technical capabilities, to name a few). However, unlike other well-defined and theory-grounded stages of the process lifecycle (e.g., process modeling), Business Process Design is scarcely understood, with little guidance detailing how or when to use a variety of improvement approaches. The lack of comprehensive research on Process Design limits the effectiveness of BPM professionals, who rely heavily on tacit knowledge and personal experiences in the absence of proven practices. BPD2013 aims to bring together researchers and practitioners who have an interest in advancing the state of the art in Process Design. We seek contributions by authors who wish to share their innovative ideas and insightful observations. Two main categories of submissions will be considered: regular papers and industry papers. The workshop focuses exclusively on aspects related to Process Design within the process lifecycle. This specialization excludes the well-researched process modeling and process execution. Within this specialized scope, topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Process improvement methods, tools and techniques * Process improvement objectives * Process improvement patterns * Process improvement measures and evaluation * Process design in the cloud * Process reference models * Process innovation * Open innovation and crowdsourcing based approaches to process improvement * Process improvement approaches based on process mining * Visualizing process designs * Constraints in process design (e.g. legislative requirements, compliance) * Process design governance * Process design for emerging challenges (e.g. greening of processes) * Human aspects (involvement, participation, acceptance) in process design * Linking process design to organizational strategy and goals * Success factors in process design Paper Submission: Only papers in English will be accepted, and the length of the paper must not exceed 12 pages. Papers should be submitted electronically via the EasyChair submission system at https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=bpd2013. For formatting instructions and further details please refer to the BPD2013 website: http://www.bpd-workshops.com/submission-instructions/ For more information on the workshop, full call for papers, and important dates please refer to the BPD'13 website: http://www.bpd-workshops.com/ Co-Chairs: Marta Indulska The University of Queensland, Australia Michael zur Muehlen Stevens Institute of Technology, USA  Michael Rosemann Queensland University of Technology, Australia _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: Information Systems Post-implementation and Change Management 2013 in Prague (2nd CFP): submit until 1 May Datum: Fri, 5 Apr 2013 15:42:03 +0200 (SAST) Von: Andreia Cruz <andreia.cruz(a)ispcm-conf.org> An: neumann(a)wu-wien.ac.at Apologies for cross-postings. Please send to interested colleagues and students -- CALL FOR PAPERS - Deadline for submissions (2nd call): 1 May 2013 -- *IADIS INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE INFORMATION SYSTEMS POST-IMPLEMENTATION AND CHANGE MANAGEMENT 2013* Prague, Czech Republic, 22 - 24 July 2013 (http://www.ispcm-conf.org/) part of the IADIS Multi Conference on Computer Science and Information Systems (MCCSIS 2013) Prague, Czech Republic, 22 - 26 July 2013 (http://www.mccsis.org <http://ss49.mailboxesmore.com/sendlink.asp?HitID=1365169176238&StID=1351&SI…>) ** Keynote Speaker (confirmed):* Professor Susan Williams, University of Koblenz, Germany ** Conference background and goals* Computer based information systems (IS) have changed the lives of people, organizations, countries and regions in a way never before seen in human history. The revolution IS created was based on unprecedented availability of and access to information. Information became the core competitive advantage in organizations and investment in IS has increased exponentially. According to the International Data Corporation 2007 report (IDC, 2008), the global software industry overtook the hardware industry for the first time in 2006, by incorporating 52 per cent of the entire information technology (IT) industry. According to the same source, in 2007 the global software market was valued at 229,946 billion US dollars and consequently the IS industry has become one of the most important business sectors in the world market today. Nevertheless and despite the apparent success story, the IS industry has been plagued by shadows of failure and inefficiency since its early days. Most of the research done since the 80s has therefore focused on the design and development of Software, aiming at meeting well defined and precise requirements, hopefully resulting from participative processes of negotiation with IS users and stakeholders. Nonetheless, failure still persists. Deterministic views based on concepts of engineering rather than socio-technical approaches, neglected to consider that organizations are human activity systems, constantly evolving and difficult to predict. The IADIS Information Systems Post-implementation and Change Management Conference (ISPCM 2013) aims to provide a forum for the discussion of IS in such a socio-technological perspective. It aims to address the issues related to use, exploitation, maintenance of IS in organizations, focusing on the post-implementation phase of the IS life-cycle. It aims at discussing the impacts and effects of the introduction of new technological artifacts in human activity systems and exploring the much need management of these processes. The conference aims to discuss these issues in the context of IS professional practice, research and teaching. ** Format of the Conference * The conference will comprise of invited talks and oral presentations. The proceedings of the conference will be published in the form of a book and CD-ROM with ISBN, and will be available also in the IADIS Digital Library (accessible on-line). The conference proceedings will be submitted for indexing to INSPEC, EI Compendex, Thomson ISI, ISTP and other indexing services. ** Best Papers* Some of the best papers will be eligible to be extended and enhanced as book chapters for inclusion in a book to be published by IGI Global.
