-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] Journal of Information Privacy and Security (JIPS) | Call For Papers & Latest Issue Content - Vol. 10, Issue 1, 2014 Datum: Mon, 7 Apr 2014 16:25:49 +0000 Von: Arslan, Faruk <farslan(a)utep.edu> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Journal of Information Privacy and Security (JIPS)will be published henceforth by the Taylor and Francis group.We are looking for experienced reviewers and Associate Editors for our journal. A.Call For Paper: Journal of Information Privacy and Security (JIPS) http://jips.utep.edu <http://jips.utep.edu> Mission The mission of the Journal of Information Privacy and Security (JIPS) is to serve both academics and practitioners as a reliable source on issues of information privacy and security. The Journal is a high quality refereed journal that seeks support from academicians, industry experts and specific government agencies. The JIPS focuses on publishing articles that address the paradoxical nature of privacy versus security amidst current global conditions. It is increasingly important that various constituents of information begin to understand their role in finding solutions to achieve a delicate balance between security and privacy. The JIPS will facilitate understanding of the information assurance technical framework as it pertains to government agencies, companies and individuals. The topics may include the information privacy and security issues pertaining to initiatives on counter-terrorism efforts around the world, the impact of U.S. federal regulation and compliance issues facing global corporations, the impact of privacy and security initiatives within small and medium enterprises (SMEs), and e-gambling. Article submissions are encouraged from both academics and practitioners. Each issue will include high quality articles from academics and practitioners, case studies, book reviews, and industry interviews. The Journal addresses issues of privacy and security from a global perspective and will consider articles with a cross-functional focus. The Journal will include articles in the following areas: - Information Assurance frameworks - Network security and impact on corporate infrastructure - Privacy laws and impact on information compliance issues - The duality of privacy and security and impact on corporate operations - Governmental regulations and changes on information security requirements - Data transfer issues across nations, states, and corporations - Privacy and security requirements in B2B and B2C information flows - Cross-functional aspects of information assurance and requirements faced by various business functions within companies - Web sites, portals and the issue of trust - Information privacy and security as it relates to end-users - Applications and case studies in privacy and security issues facing business organizations, government agencies and individuals - Emerging topics such as biometrics, software utilities, and IT obligations and how they change the business environment We also welcome suggestions on special issue covering a relevant topic. Review Process Each article will be blind-reviewed by three members of the editorial review board. Reviewer recommendation will be considered by the Editor-in-Chief or an Associate Editor. For a revision and rewrite, a revised paper will be sent to one of the Editors for final approval. The final decision will be made by the Editor-in-Chief. Interested authors should consult the journal's manuscript submission guidelines at http://jips.utep.edu All inquiries and submissions should be sent to: Editor-in-Chief: Dr. Kallol Bagchi, kbagchi(a)utep.edu <mailto:kbagchi@utep.edu> B.Content of Journal of Privacy and Security (JIPS), Vol. 10, Issue 1, 2014. Editorial. By the Editor-in-chief Paper 1. A Brief Review of Software Security History with an Emphasis on Efforts Focused at Early Stages of the Software Lifecycle By Spyros T. Halkidis, Alexander Chatzigeorgiou and George Stephanides Abstract. It was not until 2006 that it was discovered by Gary McGraw that "Design flaws account for 50 percent of security problems, and architectural risk analysis plays an essential role in any solid security program". In this article, we have qualitatively analyzed the security patterns presented until 2004 by the OpenGroup Security Forum, and quantitatively evaluated software systems based on their design, using fuzzy risk analysis, based on the security patterns they contain and the STRIDE model of attacks by Howard and LeBlanc proposed in 2001. Additionally, it has been noted by Hoglund and McGraw in 2004 that attacks to software start with the reverse engineering phase of the code, using a decompiler or a disassembler. A possible solution to this problem is code obfuscation whose use was proposed in the late 90's, for example by Collberg et al. in 1997. However, it was not until 2010, when this technique started to gain attention because of the book by Collberg and Nagra. We conclude with this method, which we think is a starting point for future research. This paper tries to provide a brief review of Software Security history putting an emphasis on our efforts to embed security at early stages of the software lifecycle. Paper 2. Information Security In Higher Education: A Neo-Institutional Perspective By Hwee-Joo Kam and Pairin Katerattanakul Abstract. External pressures could be a compelling force that drives higher education institutions to attain information security. Drawing on the Neo-Institutional Theory, this study examined how three external expectations: regulative, normative, and cognitive expectations drive the higher education of the United States to attain information security. The research findings suggest that, through regulatory and social normative pressure, cognitive expectation indirectly promotes information security in higher education. That is, cognitive expectation or stakeholder's perception of higher education determines information security in higher education by harnessing the coercive force of regulatory pressure and leveraging the pressure of meeting social normative expectation. Paper 3. Privacy Preserving Interest Group Formation in Online Social Networks (OSNs) using Fully Homomorphic Encryption By Mohammed Kaosar and Quazi Mamun Abstract. In Online Social Networks (OSNs), interest groups are becoming increasingly popular due to the growth of social networking sites and these groups can serve various purposes and interests including political, professional and religious etc. aspects. These interest group formation procedures involve the disclosure of identities and interests of the users which can be considered as the violation of privacy. So far no significant and effective research has been done to address this issue so that the OSN users could form groups securely. In this paper, we propose a cryptography based privacy preserving solution that will allow users form groups by disclosing neither their identities nor their interests. Even, users within the group will enjoy the privacy preserving communication if they want. We also have shown that, this fully homomorphic encryption based proposed solution is secure against some possible attacks. Book Review. In the Book Review section, the book, "Information Technology Control and Audit", Fourth Edition by Sandra Senft, Frederick Gallegos, and Aleksandra Davis (CRC Press, ISBN: 978-1-4398-9320-3) is reviewed by Adolfo S. Coronado, Indiana University -- Purdue University Fort Wayne. Dr Coronado observes that this book provides a complete review of IT governance, controls, auditing applications, systems development, and operations. The book examines a comprehensive list of topics in IT security and auditing and could be a valuable resource for those preparing for the Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) and Certified in the Governance of Enterprise IT (CGEIT) certification exams. *Faruk Arslan* Department of Accounting and Information Systems | College of Business | The University of Texas at El Paso /Mobile/*:*00 1 915 227 4889| http://business.utep.edu/faculty/profiles/arslan/| www.linkedin.com/pub/faruk-arslan/6/1a1/913 <http://www.linkedin.com/pub/faruk-arslan/6/1a1/913>

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] CFP: The 6th International ACM Conference on Management of Emergent Digital EcoSystems Datum: Mon, 7 Apr 2014 15:09:29 +0200 (CEST) Von: Youakim Badr <youakim.badr(a)insa-lyon.fr> An: medes(a)acm.org * Please distribute widely and accept our apologies for cross-posting * *************** CALL FOR PAPERS *************** The 6th International ACM Conference on Management of Emergent Digital EcoSystems (MEDES 2014) In-Cooperation with ACM, ACM SIGAPP and IFIP WG 2.6 http://sigappfr.acm.org/MEDES/14/ September 15-17, 2014 Buraidah-Al Qassim, Saudi Arabi Description and Objectives --------------------------- In the world of the Internet, the rapid growth and exponential use of digital medias leads to the emergence of virtual environments namely digital ecosystems composed of multiple and independent entities such as individuals, organizations, services, software and applications sharing one or several missions and focusing on the interactions and inter-relationships among them. The digital ecosystem exhibits self-organizing environments, thanks to the re-combination and evolution of its "digital components", in which resources provided by each entity are properly conserved, managed and used. The underlying resources mainly comprehend data management, innovative services, computational intelligence and self-organizing platforms. Due to the multi-disciplinary nature of digital ecosystems and their characteristics, they are highly complex to study and design. This also leads to a poor understanding as to how managing resources will empower digital ecosystems to be innovative and value-creating. The application of Information Technologies has the potential to enable the understanding of how entities request resources and ultimately interact to create benefits and added-values, impacting business practices and knowledge. These technologies can be improved through novel techniques, models and methodologies for fields such as data management, web technologies, networking, security, human-computer interactions, artificial intelligence, e-services and self-organizing systems to support the establishment of digital ecosystems and manage their resources. The International ACM Conference on Management of Emergent Digital EcoSystems (MEDES) aims to develop and bring together a diverse community from academia, research laboratories and industry interested in exploring the manifold challenges and issues related to resource management of Digital Ecosystems and how current approaches and technologies can be evolved and adapted to this end. The conference seeks related original research papers, industrial papers and proposals for demonstrations. Topics ------- MEDES 2014 seeks contributions in the following 10 areas: 1. Digital Ecosystem Infrastructure 2. Cloud computing 3. Emergent Intelligence 4. Service systems and Engineering 5. Trust, Security & Privacy 6. Data & Knowledge Management 7. Intelligent Web 8.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] IDA 2014: Frontier Prize Datum: Mon, 07 Apr 2014 11:10:26 +0200 Von: "F. Höppner" <f.hoeppner(a)ostfalia.de> An: wi(a)lists.uni-karlsruhe.de [We apologize if you received multiple copies] * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * CALL FOR PAPERS The Thirteenth International Symposium on Intelligent Data Analysis (IDA 2014) October 30 - November 1, 2014, Leuven, Belgium Paper submission deadline: 23 May 2014 www.ida2014.org * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * --- FOCUS --- The traditional focus of the IDA symposium series is on end-to-end intelligent support for data analysis. In 2010, the series re-focused to support papers that go beyond established technology and offer genuinely novel and "game- changing" ideas, whilst not always being as fully realized as papers submitted to other conferences. IDA 2014 continues this approach and explicitly seeks "first look" papers that might elsewhere be considered preliminary but contain potentially high impact research. To emphasize this, IDA 2014 will include a new track -- see below for the details. The IDA symposium, which is A-ranked according to ERA, is open to all kinds of modeling and analysis methods, irrespective of discipline. It is expected to be an interdisciplinary meeting that seeks abstractions that cut across domains. --- FRONTIER PRIZE --- The IDA Frontier Prize will be awarded to the most visionary contribution. Submissions considered for this award must present novel and surprising approaches to data analysis. Last years' winners can be found on the IDA 2014 website. The award consists of a plaque and a prize of 1000 euros. --- KEYNOTE SPEAKERS --- Along with the regular presentations, the symposium schedule will feature three exciting keynote talks by renowned researchers: - Chris Lintott (University of Oxford) "Lessons from the crowd: Citizen Science and Big Data" - Arnoldo Frigessi (University of Oslo) "Bayesian Inference for Ranks" - Jan Van den Bussche (Universiteit Hasselt) "The DNA query language DNAQL" Read more about the speakers and talks on our website: http://www.ida2014.org/invited-speakers/ --- CALL FOR PAPERS --- IDA solicits papers on all aspects of intelligent data analysis, including papers on intelligent techniques to modeling and analyzing data from complex, dynamical systems. IDA 2014 particularly encourages papers about: - Novel applications of IDA techniques to complex systems - Novel modes of data acquisition and integration - Novel approaches that demonstrate how users can add to the analysis process - Robustness and scalability issues of intelligent data analysis techniques - Visualization and dissemination of results Intelligent support for data analysis goes beyond the usual algorithmic offerings in the literature. Papers about established technology should offer novel ways to analyzing and/or modeling complex systems to get accepted. The conventional reviewing process has a tendency to favor incremental but solid contributions over novel but exploratory ones. This can discourage the kind of papers that IDA hopes to publish. For this reason, IDA 2014 will have two paper tracks, both of which address this issue: A] Proceedings Track This is the regular IDA paper track, which will be continued unchanged. Submitted papers will be reviewed and, if accepted, published in the proceedings. Submitted papers should consist of at most 11 pages in LNCS format. Papers may be accepted for either oral or poster presentation. To ensure that the papers sought by IDA get accepted, referees will evaluate papers against the stated goals of the symposium, and if at least one program chair advisor writes an informed, thoughtful, positive review for a paper, this may outweigh the criticism of other reviewers. Following IDA's tradition, the proceedings of IDA 2014 will be published as a volume in Springers Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS). B] First Look Track New this year is the First Look Track, which allows you to present your groundbreaking research at the symposium if it is not yet mature enough for the Proceedings Track. You may have a great idea that needs to be investigated in more detail, or you may have a long-term vision that you would like to share. In these cases, it may be impossible or undesirable to publish a preliminary version of your paper in the proceedings, but presenting and discussing it at IDA may be of interest to both you and the community. For the First Look Track we solicit short papers, up to 8 pages in LNCS format, that will be reviewed in a setup similar to that of the Proceedings Track. Also, submissions can be accepted for either oral or poster presentation, but they will not be published in the proceedings. Note that only a limited number of papers can be accepted for this track; if your paper is ready for publication we recommend submitting to the regular Proceedings Track. Note that papers accepted to both tracks are eligible to win the Frontier Prize. --- IMPORTANT DATES --- Paper submission deadline: 23 May 2014 Author notification: 18 July 2014 Symposium: 30 October - 1 November 2014 --- FOLLOW US --- Follow us to stay up-to-date of the latest news: Web: www.ida2014.org Facebook: facebook.com/IDAsymposia Twitter: @ida_news --- ORGANIZATION --- - General Chair - Hendrik Blockeel, KU Leuven, Belgium - Program Chairs - Matthijs van Leeuwen, KU Leuven, Belgium Veronica Vinciotti, Brunel University, UK - Poster & Video Chair - Elisa Fromont, Jean Monnet University, France - Local Chair - Tias Guns, KU Leuven, Belgium - Publicity Chair - Márcia Oliveira, University of Porto, Portugal - Sponsorship Chair - David Martens, Universiteit Antwerpen, Belgium - Frontier Prize Chairs - Arno Siebes, University of Utrecht, The Netherlands Allan Tucker, Brunel University, UK - Advisory Chairs - Jaakko Hollmén, Aalto University, Finland Frank Höppner, Ostfalia University of Applied Sciences, Germany -- Mailing-Liste: wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de Administrator: wi-request(a)lists.uni-karlsruhe.de Konfiguration: https://www.lists.uni-karlsruhe.de/sympa/info/wi

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: BPMS2'2014 (BPM and Social Software) - Call for papers Datum: Sun, 06 Apr 2014 22:26:10 +0200 Von: Selmin Nurcan <nurcan(a)univ-paris1.fr> An: Selmin Nurcan <Selmin.Nurcan(a)univ-paris1.fr> Dear BPMS2 author, We will be grateful to you for submitting your work to and also for advertising the 7th International Workshop on BPM and Social Software (BPMS2'2014) in conjunction with the International Conference on Business Process Management and for inviting your colleagues and/or research students to submit their work. The goal of the workshop is to promote the integration of business process management with social software and to enlarge the community pursuing the theme. The Call for Papers can be downloaded from the BPMS2'2014 Web site : http://www.bpms2.org/ All BPM'2014 conference "workshop papers" will be published in Springer LNBIP post-proceedings. Best regards, Rainer Schmidt, Selmin Nurcan BPMS2'2014 organisers -------------8<-------------------8<-------------------8<-------------------8<-------------------8<-------------------8<--- BPMS2 2014 CALL FOR PAPERS 7th International Workshop on Business Process Management and Social Software (BPMS2) in conjunction with BPM 2014 September 8th, 2014, Haifa, Israel Papers submission deadline: June 1st, 2014 http://www.bpms2.org/ Organizers: Rainer Schmidt – Munich University of Applied Sciences, Germany Selmin Nurcan – University Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne, France ------ SCOPE ------ Social software is a new paradigm that is spreading quickly in society, organizations and economics. More and more enterprises use social software to improve their business processes and create new business models. Social software provides new interaction patterns that allow to integrate more stakeholders in a broader way and to design business processes in a completely new way. These four patterns are: • Weak ties Weak-ties are spontaneously established contacts between individuals that create new views and allow combining competencies. Social software supports the creation of weak ties by supporting to create contacts in impulse between non-predetermined individuals. • Social Production Social Production is the creation of artefacts, by combining the input from independent contributors without predetermining the way to do this. By this means it is possible to integrate new and innovative contributions not identified or planned in advance. • Egalitarianism Egalitarianism is the equal handling of all contributors of a business process. This is done with the intention to encourage a maximum of contributors and to get the best solution fusioning a high number of contributions, thus enabling the wisdom of the crowds. • Value co-creation Social software is based on the idea, that value-creation is a mutual process. Thus both service producer and consumer (or better prosumer) cooperate in order co-create value. Applying these four patterns to business processes creates huge chances for the design, implementation and operation of business processes. Social software is used to communicate with the customer increasingly in a bi-directional manner. Companies integrate customers into product development using social software to capture ideas for new products and features. Mass production is more and more replaced by the individualized provisioning of services and products. Thus social software establishes learning relationships with customers and stakeholders. Inside companies, hierarchical structures are more and more dissolved and replaced by a culture of trust. The exchange of knowledge and information is improved. Innovations and decisions are created socially and not by single experts and managers. Combining social software and business process management benefits a lot from the recent advances of data processing, subsumed as Big Data. Today large amounts of semi-structured and unstructured data as created by social software can be processed. Based on the analysis of this data, social software is able to influence business process (management) significantly. ----------------- WORKSHOP GOALS ----------------- The workshop has the goal to investigate the relationship of social software and business process management in three areas. 1. Interaction of social software with business process management 2. Use of social software in business processes. 3. Leverage social software in business process management and business processes using Big Data. ------------------- WORKSHOP THEMES ------------------- The workshop are organized according to the three areas. 1. Interaction of social software with business process management - How interact weak ties, social production, egalitarianism and value co-creation with business process management? - Which phases of the BPM lifecycle (Design, Deployment, Operation, and Evaluation) can profit the most from social software? - Do we need new BPM methods and/or paradigms to cope with social software? - How are trust and reputation established in business processes using social software? - How does social software interact with WFMS or other business process support systems? 2. Use of social software in business processes - Are there business processes which require sociality, especially when they are not predictable (as production workflows) but collaborative or ad hoc? - How can we use Wikis, Blogs etc. to support business processes? - Which types of social software can be used in which phases of the BPM lifecycle? - What new kinds of business knowledge representation are offered by social production? 3. Leverage social software in business process management using Big Data. - Which data created with social software can be used to support business processes? - Which categories of business processes can profit from big data ? - Are there any similarities or relationships with process mining techniques and also with workflow control and role patterns? ----------- SUBMISSION ----------- Prospective authors are invited to submit papers for presentation in any of the areas listed above. Only papers in English will be accepted. Length of full papers must not exceed 12 pages (There is no possibility to buy additional pages). Position papers and tool reports should be no longer than 6 pages. Papers should be submitted in the new LNBIP format (http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-7-487211-0). Papers have to present original research contributions not concurrently submitted elsewhere. The title page must contain a short abstract, a classification of the topics covered, preferably using the list of topics above, and an indication of the submission category (regular paper/position paper/tool report). Please use Easychair for submitting your paper: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=bpms214 The paper selection will be based upon the relevance of a paper to the main topics, as well as upon its quality and potential to generate relevant discussion. All the workshop papers will be published by Springer as a post-proceeding volume (to be sent around 4 months after the workshop) in their Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing (LNBIP) series. ----------------- EXPECTED RESULTS ----------------- All papers will be published on workshop wiki (www.bpms2.org) before the workshop, so that everybody can learn about the problems that are important for other participants. A blog will be used to encourage and support discussions. The workshop will consist of long and short paper presentations, brainstorming sessions and discussions. The workshop report will be created collaboratively using a wiki. A special issue over all workshops will be published in a journal (decision in progress). The two papers collaboratively written by the BPMS2’08 and BPMS2’09 workshop authors (see below) have been accepted for publication in the Journal of Software Maintenance and Evolution: Research and Practice (including Software Process: Improvement and Practice): S.

Academics and practitioners, alike, are facing challenges related to the ever increasing required infrastructure for mining crypro-currencies, the operational aspects of exchanges, the regulatory frameworks that are required for the new form of payment instruments without hindering the growth of the new economy and the relation between crypto-currencies and official payment methods. Nowadays, addressing such challenges becomes essential for developing new services and possibly business models that contain the prospect of restructuring financial systems. This workshop invites researchers and business experts to share knowledge and competencies for organizational and practical apsects of crypto-currency systems. We expect participants to present research papers, comment on business cases, hold tutorial sessions or demonstrate systems, tools and other related issues needed to: (a) manage crypto-currencies (b) optimize operational aspects of crypto-currency exchanges and (c) assess and make informed decisions related to digital currencies. TOPICS OF INTEREST * Types of Digital Payment Systems and Properties * Crypto-currencies and Security * Mining Crypto-ocurrencies * P2P Decentralized Architectures and Platforms * Crypto-currency Exchange Markets * Risk Analysis of Exchanges for Digital Currency * Assessing Emerging Regulatory Frameworks * Mobile Information Systems and Services in Crypto-currencies * Digital Currency as a Service * Digital Currency and the Banking Sector * Investing and Crypto-currencies * Regulatory Frameworks in Digital Monetary Systems * Digital Currency Transactions and Privacy * Policy and Ethics * Case Studies and Best Practices IMPORTANT DATES * Apr 15, 2014 - submission deadline for papers * Apr 25, 2014 - notification of acceptance/rejection * May 18, 2014 - submission of final papers * May 22, 2014 - the workshop CHAIRS * George M.
