*ICWE 2014 - 14th International Conference on Web Engineering*
/"Engineering the Web for users, developers and the crowd"/
*Toulouse, France* |* July 1-4 2014* - http://icwe2014.webengineering.org/
(call for research papers, industrial papers and late breaking results)
*IMPORTANT DATES*
***Abstract submission:* February 21, 2014* (EXTENDED - HARD deadline)
(23h59 Hawaii Time)
* Full paper submission:* February 25, 2014* (EXTENDED - HARD deadline)
(23h59 Hawaii Time)
* Paper notification:* March 28, 2014*
*ICWE 2014 AT A GLANCE*
ICWE aims to bring together researchers and practitioners from various
disciplines in academia and industry to tackle the emerging challenges
in the engineering of Web applications and in the problems of its
associated technologies, as well as the impact of those technologies on
society and culture. The 14th edition of ICWE is centered around the
theme of ?/Engineering the Web for users, developers and the crowd/?,
hereby highlighting the importance of all the different people that,
somehow, participate in the development process of interactive Web
applications and, ultimately, becomes the actors and the main users of
the best practices and results of the research performed in the domain
of the Web Engineering.
ICWE 2014 is innovating with the introduction of six major research
tracks: cross-media and mobile applications, HCI and the Web, modelling
and engineering web applications, quality aspects of Web applications,
social web applications, and Web applications composition and mashups.
In addition to the six research tracks, ICWE 2014 also welcomes
contributions as demos and posters, student papers to the PhD Symposium,
tutorials and workshops, which will be subject of individual calls for
papers. The conference will be held at Toulouse, France Toulouse which
is the 3rd university city of France and it hosts one of the oldest in
Europe (founded in 1229). Further information on the web
sitehttp://icwe2014.webengineering.org/.
*SUBMISSIONS TO THE RESEARCH TRACKS*
This call is concerned by research and industrial contributions in one
of the following categories:
* Full research papers: mature, original research contribution ideally
accompanied with some type of formal/empirical validation, evidence of
use in practice and/or demonstration of scalability (18 pages)
* Industrial papers: description of commercial solutions that are highly
innovative, discuss trends in the market and/or challenge the community
to find solutions to new problems (18 pages)
* Late breaking results: description of preliminary results and/or
ongoing efforts that present new ideas and concepts. (10 pages)
Accepted contributions will be included into the ICWE 2014 Springer LNCS
proceedings.
*ICWE 2014 RESEARCH TRACKS * (further details at
http://icwe2014.webengineering.org/main-tracks/)
* *Cross-media and mobile Web applications*
<http://icwe2014.webengineering.org/cross-media-and-mobile-web-applications/>
The modern Web use is nomadic and across various devices - often
simultaneously - and the Web experience should be enjoyable, of high
quality and consistent across all devices, regardless of the purpose,
place and time of use. Such mobile, cross-device usage forces Web
developers to evolve or re-invent their engineering methods and
techniques to these new requirements and user demands. Web applications
have to be tailored to deal with the constraints imposed by mobile
technology such as small screens, low (and sometimes expensive)
bandwidth, limited browser capabilities, different usage situations,
cross- and multi-device use. Simultaneously, modern mobile devices offer
a rich set of sensors, available through current Web browsers, allowing
Web pages access to geo-location, NFC, and other sensor data, as well as
tracking user identity across devices. Also, he rise of the app as an
alternative for Web sites is a concern to be addressed to ensure a
future, open Web.
* *HCI and the Web * <http://icwe2014.webengineering.org/hci-and-the-web/>
Most Web applications are conceived as interactive systems that aim at
communicating with users. Users do not only consume information via the
Web, but can also play an active role by contributing content (e.g., Web
2.0), get involved in the development process of Web applications (e.g.,
agile and user-centered design processes) and even conceive their own
components by interacting with specialized tools (e.g., end-user
development tools). In this context, there are many user roles involved
in the socio-technical environment encompassing the development of Web
applications. This track is devoted to the studies on user interface
software and technologies that improve the relationship between users
and Web applications. We welcome research focused on improving
usability, accessibility, and user experience with Web applications, as
well as user-centered design approaches that describe how Web technology
and innovative design solutions can help users to better accomplish
their tasks over the Web.
* *Modeling and Engineering Web applications*
<http://icwe2014.webengineering.org/modeling-and-engineering-web-application…>
The Modeling and Engineering Web applications track concerns principles,
methods, notations, processes, approaches, and tools for supporting the
development and evolution of high-quality Web applications in a more
effective and efficient way. Model-driven approaches are of particular
interest for addressing complexity, scalability, and maintainability of
solutions for the development of Web applications, improving
communication among participants of the development teams, and
supporting the development of innovative tools and process. Furthermore,
empirical and comparative studies of applying Web engineering methods
and approaches, especially model-driven ones, are of particular interest.
* *Quality aspects of Web applications*
<http://icwe2014.webengineering.org/quality-aspects-of-web-applications/>
The development and usage of Web applications in different platforms and
devices are continuously increasing. Web applications have become the
most predominant form of software delivery today, with users and
businesses choosing to rent or use software rather than buy it. The
success of such applications depends on their capability to satisfy the
customer needs. This has led to increased attention on quality models,
processes and methods that facilitate understanding, evaluating, and
especially improving the overall quality of products, processes and
quality in use.
* *Social Web applications*
<http://icwe2014.webengineering.org/social-web-applications/>
Social aspects are an integral part of todays Web, and the widespread
use of the Web to connect, share and tap into collective knowledge
provides a wealth of actionable data. The crowd can be deployed in
various ways, i.e. the so-called crowdsourcing and human computation
applications, and their generated data is valuable for developers,
researchers and marketers alike. Successfully tapping into the crowds
knowledge, and gathering, analyzing, and visualizing complex,
heterogeneous social data, and putting it to good use are major current
challenges.
* *Web applications composition and mashups*
<http://icwe2014.webengineering.org/web-applications-composition-and-mashups/>
Composition on the Web aims to integrate Web services, Web data sources
and Web widgets into other Web services or Web applications. Mashups,
and especially mashup tools with their modeling languages and
instruments for mashup development, bring significant innovation as they
tackle integration across the data, API and user interface layers; they
aim at simplicity and ease of use rather than completeness of features
and full expressiveness (compared to traditional Web programming
languages and tools), but still they allow fairly sophisticated
development tasks in a Web browser. Hereby, mashups represent an
important and emerging strain of Web applications, with their own set of
research challenges and opportunities.

TRACK DESCRIPTIONS
1. Forensic Intelligence
A broad range of disparate techniques to tackle evidential reasoning and
forensic investigation have emerged from a variety of fields, including
argumentation, probabilistic, narrative and knowledge management based
approaches to collect and assess evidence, and to manage and coordinate
investigations. This track aims to bring together academic researchers
and practitioners with interests in evidential reasoning and forensic
investigation from disparate fields such as statistics, artificial
intelligence, decision sciences, forensic sciences and law, to present
new developments in their respective areas and encourage
cross-fertilisation between often disparate fields of research and
practice.
2. Decisioning and Interaction
The track will explore interactive technologies that assist in the
decision-making processes of security-related domains. This includes
visualization and visual analytics systems, interactive decision-support
and analytical reasoning systems, and other forms of multimedia
information systems. A key component of this track is a
human-in-the-loop interaction technology where computational analyses
are complemented by human exploration and investigation.
3. Cyber and Infrastructure Security
The Security track focuses on computational models of intelligence,
safety and security aspects of crime and terrorism in the context of
critical infrastructure and cyberspace. Papers making both theoretical
and practical aspects of these topics are welcome. Interdisciplinary and
applied papers, where existing computational methods are applied or
adapted to the solution of real-world problems in these domains are
particularly encouraged.
4. Financial and Fraud Analysis
Financial fraud is a serious problem, damaging both international
economies and personal lives. The areas in which financial fraud can
occur are diverse, including retail finance, insurance, corporate
banking and internet transactions. A broad range of tactics are employed
by fraudsters to obtain illegal advantage. Moreover, the area of fraud
is an arms-race, with fraudsters constantly changing tactics to
circumvent protection systems. Thus, methodology that is capable of
automatically adapting to such changes is of special interest. Many
financial fraud applications have the character of "big data", in which
a very small signal must be extracted from very large and complex data.
This track will gather novel research contributions in the area of
financial fraud, with the intention of gaining insight from diverse
methodologies and application areas.
5. Computational criminology
This track will provide examinations of offender behavior, victimology,
and law enforcement practices utilizing statistical analysis techniques
and unique data sources. This includes tests of various criminological
theories, assessments of social network structures, and organizational
practices of terror groups, cybercriminals, and gangs. Evaluations of
crime prevention strategies, intelligence led policing, and issues of
public safety, privacy, and security will also be a focus of this track.
6. Border Control
This track solicits papers reporting research work relevant in the
context of addressing practical operational challenges encountered by
the border control community. Among others, topics of interest include:
(a) authentication of documents, people and vehicles, (b) risk
assessment of travelers, (c) modelling and optimization of the border
control processing chain, (d) border surveillance, (e) platforms,
protocols and techniques for secure exchange of information and
communication, (f) text/data mining, information fusion and utilization
of new sources of information for intelligence gathering and situational
awareness, and (g) border control technology impact, acceptance and
integration.
We are looking forward to see you in The Hague - City of Peace and Justice

*Venue*
The BMSD sessions will be held at the Chambre des Metiers that is not
only in very close proximity to both the University of Luxembourg and
the CRP Henri Tudor but is also conveniently reachable by bus (for
around 20 minutes) from both the city center and the airport. Luxembourg
is the capital of the Grand Duchy, one of the founder states of the
European Union, where about 43 per cent of the half million inhabitants
are foreign. This multicultural ambience of day-to-day contact with
people from the four corners of the Earth gives the small state an
astonishingly cosmopolitan outlook - not least thanks to the European
institutions and the financial center. It is however far easier to get
around the capital (100 000 inhabitants) than it is in Berlin or Paris.
The distances are short. There is a lively nightlife scene around the
fashionable bars of Hollerich, the Grund, and Clausen. Furthermore,
there are plenty of sports, leisure activities as well as events:
cinemas and climbing parks, mountain bike trails and an enormous
cultural range - from Jazz in the medieval city, contemporary art at
MUDAM, theatre in every language or classical music in one of the most
beautiful new buildings in Luxembourg, the Philharmonie. All this is set
against the romantic backdrop of the medieval city (a UNESCO world
heritage site since 1994), the castle in the richy-forested north and
the vineyards - along the Mosel.

CALL FOR PAPERS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2nd International Workshop on Business Process Management in the Cloud (BPMC)
Haifa, Israel, September 08, 2014
http://projects.aifb.kit.edu/bpmc2014/
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cloud computing is a paradigm for the on-demand delivery of infrastructure, platform, or software as a service. Cloud computing enables network access to a shared pool of configurable computing and storage resources as well as applications which can be tailored to the consumer's needs. Cloud resources can be rapidly provisioned and released, and are billed based on actual use, thus reducing up-front investment costs. Not only can individual services be hosted on virtual infrastructures but also complete process platforms. Further, besides benefits to run-time Business Process Management (BPM), during design-time cloud-based services can enable collaboration between geographically dispersed teams and assist the design process in general - amongst others, Process Modelling as a Service removes the need for installation of software, and is thus more attractive for the occasional user.
A cloud-based architecture for BPM may provide important benefits:
* Elasticity: process engines or process tasks can scale up/out or down/in depending on the actual load to reduce investment cost and manage load peaks.
* Flexibility: processes can be assembled with more flexibility as service selection can not only include the software but also the platform or infrastructure for it to run on.
* Measurement: as service applications in the cloud are individually metered, detailed measurement data is available and can be used to provide additional services such as process monitoring.
The research directions of core interest to this workshop are summarized by three questions:
1) How can BPM benefit from the cloud?
2) What should BPM in the cloud look like?
3) What can BPM bring to cloud computing practices?
Among a number of challenges, there is a lack of conceptualization and theory on BPM with respect to cloud computing. For the most part, the topic of cloud computing has only been implicitly regarded in BPM research when discussing design-time tools. Few works have addressed workflow enactment in the cloud to date. However, a detailed research agenda which covers theory, design-time, run-time, and use cases is missing. The goal of the 2nd International Workshop on Business Process Management in the Cloud is to lay the foundation for such a research agenda.
Topics
------------
Authors are invited to submit novel contributions in the above mentioned problem domain. We also invite people from the scientific workflow community to submit papers, so that the different communities can share insights and ideas. Specifically, the relevant topics include, but are not limited to:
* Cloud and BPM: concepts and theory, e.g.
Cloud-centric flexibility, adaptability and evolution in BPM
Business Process or BPM as a Service (BPaaS/ BPMaaS)
BPM as a platform or software service
Business process analytics as a service
Compliance in cloud-based BPM
Security, privacy, and trust in cloud-based BPM
Socio-technical aspects of cloud computing for BPM
* Design-time BPM in the cloud, e.g.
Methods, tools, techniques to design cloud aspects of BPM systems
Cloud support for BPM design
Design-time optimization of process models and systems
Description languages for cloud-based processes
* Run-time BPM in the cloud, e.g.
Automated service and virtual resource selection and allocation
Load balancing of BPM engines/ processes/ process instances/ process tasks
Scaling of BPM engines/ processes/ process instances/ process tasks
Monitoring of processes and process steps running in the cloud
Security enforcement in cloud-based BPM
* Use cases for BPM in the cloud, e.g.
Best practices, success factors and empirical studies on cloud-based BPM
New delivery models for BPM, application scenarios
Reports on use cases within companies and government
Requirements definition issues for use cases
Application of cloud computing concepts from scientific workflows to BPM
Submission
------------------
The following types of submission are solicited:
* Full paper submissions, describing substantial contributions of novel ongoing work. Full papers should be at most 12 pages long.
* Short paper submissions, describing work in progress. These papers should be at most 6 pages long.
