-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: CALL FOR POSITION PAPERS: KMIS 2014 - Int'l Conf. on Knowledge Management and Information Sharing (Rome/Italy) Datum: Mon, 12 May 2014 16:26:06 +0000 (UTC) Von: KMIS Secretariat <kmis.secretariat(a)insticc.org> Antwort an: kmis.secretariat(a)insticc.org An: gustaf.neumann(a)wu-wien.ac.at Dear Gustaf Neumann, Let me kindly inform you that the International Conference on Knowledge Management and Information Sharing (KMIS 2014 - http://www.kmis.ic3k.org/), to be held in Rome, Italy (October 21 - 24, 2014) is now welcoming the submission of position papers whose deadline is scheduled for next June 23. A position paper presents an arguable opinion about an issue. The goal of a position paper is to convince the audience that your opinion is valid and worth listening to, without the need to present completed research work and/or validated results. It is, nevertheless, important to support your argument with evidence to ensure the validity of your claims. A position paper may be a short report and discussion of ideas, facts, situations, methods, procedures or results of scientific research (bibliographic, experimental, theoretical, or other) focused on one of the conference topics. Please check further details about position papers submission at the conference website (http://www.kmis.ic3k.org/GuidelinesTemplates.aspx). The conference will be sponsored by the Institute for Systems and Technologies of Information, Control and Communication (INSTICC) and held in cooperation with the The European Research Consortium for Informatics and Mathematics (ERCIM), Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AAAI), ACM Special Interest Group on Management Information Systems (ACM SIGMIS), ACM Special Interest Group on Artificial Intelligence (ACM SIGART) and Information & Knowledge Management Society (IKMS). INSTICC is Member of the Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents (FIPA), Workflow Management Coalition (WfMC) and Object Management Group (OMG). Logistics Partner the Science and Technology Events (SCITEVENTS). KMIS is interested in promoting high quality research as it can be confirmed by last year acceptance rates, where from 91 submissions, 4% were accepted as full papers. Additionally, 27% were presented as short papers and 14% as posters. Submitted papers will be subject to a double-blind review process. All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, on paper and on CD-ROM support. The proceedings will be submitted for indexation by Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (ISI), INSPEC, DBLP, EI (Elsevier Index) and Scopus. All papers presented at the conference venue will be available at the SCITEPRESS Digital Library (http://www.scitepress.org/DigitalLibrary/). SCITEPRESS is a member of CrossRef (http://www.crossref.org/). The conference program features a number of Keynote Lectures to be delivered by distinguished world-class researchers, including those listed below. KMIS 2014 is co-located with two related conferences in a joint conference (IC3K - http://www.ic3k.org/) format, namely: - Knowledge Discovery and Information Retrieval (http://www.kdir.ic3k.org/) - Knowledge Engineering and Ontology Development (http://www.keod.ic3k.org/) Registration to one conference allows free access to all conferences Finally, we would like to highlight the Doctoral Consortium on Knowledge Discovery, Knowledge Engineering and Knowledge Management that will take place in conjunction with IC3K and aims to provide an opportunity for graduate students to explore their research interests in an interdisciplinary workshop, under the guidance of a panel of distinguished experts in the field (http://www.ic3k.org/DoctoralConsortium.aspx).

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] HICSS Mnitrack on Inter-organizational collaborative dynamics and role of information technology Datum: Sat, 10 May 2014 06:48:38 +0000 Von: Sirkka Jarvenpaa <Sirkka.Jarvenpaa(a)mccombs.utexas.edu> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> DEADLINE June 15 2014 ORGANIZATIONAL SYSTEMS AND TECHNOLOGY ** * Minitrack**: Inter-Organizational Collaborative Dynamics and Role of Information Technology* Within the 48th Hawaiian International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS), we organize a minitrack on *Inter-organizational Collaborative Dynamics and the Role of Information Technology*. The 48th HICSS, one of the most prominent Conferences on Information Systems and Sciences worldwide, will be held on January 5-8, 2015, Grand Hyatt Kauai, Hawaii (http://www.hicss.hawaii.edu). Breakthrough innovation increasingly requires intense interaction that involves external parties jointly solving problems or exploring new opportunities. In healthcare, care coordination and transitions of care require coordination of patient care among multiple and often independent care settings that are often completely different systems of care, both professionally and institutionally. Multiparty cloud solutions and infrastructure management services require close collaboration by multiple vendors and the client particularly during times of transition. The aftermath of catastrophic events often involves impromptu groups of individuals from different organizations and backgrounds that collaborate to provide disaster relief. This track explores inter-organizational collaboration particularly in terms of multi-level dynamics and the role of information and communication technology in such dynamics. We welcome papers that theoretically or empirically advance our understanding . We will solicit excellent papers that will develop and expand this area. The papers can use any acceptable methodology and theory. We welcome papers at any level of analysis and encourage papers that take a cross level perspective. ** *Minitrack Co-Chairs:* Sirkka Jarvenpaa (Primary Contact), McCombs School of Business, The University of Texas at Austin, Sirkka.jarvenpaa(a)mccombs.utexas.edu <mailto:Sirkka.jarvenpaa@mccombs.utexas.edu> Holly Lanham, Department of Medicine, The University of Texas Health Science Center San Antonio, lanham(a)uthscsa.edu <mailto:lanham@uthscsa.edu>

Fwd: [WI] CFP: IDA 2014 - Final Deadline: May 23 - Intelligent Data Analysis
by Gustaf Neumann 12 May '14

12 May '14

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] CFP: IDA 2014 - Final Deadline: May 23 - Intelligent Data Analysis Datum: Mon, 12 May 2014 08:27:55 +0200 Von: "F. Höppner" <f.hoeppner(a)ostfalia.de> An: kdml(a)cs.uni-kassel.de, wi(a)aifb.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

Fwd: [WI] 2nd CFP: TAProViz 2014 : 3rd International Workshop on Theory and Applications of Process Visualization
by Gustaf Neumann 09 May '14

09 May '14

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] 2nd CFP: TAProViz 2014 : 3rd International Workshop on Theory and Applications of Process Visualization Datum: Fri, 9 May 2014 07:20:17 +0000 Von: Ross Brown <r.brown(a)qut.edu.au> An: wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de <wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de> Kopie (CC): Simone Kriglstein <simone.kriglstein(a)univie.ac.at>, Stefanie Rinderle-Ma <stefanie.rinderle-ma(a)univie.ac.at> 2nd Call For Papers 3rd International Workshop on Theory and Applications of Process Visualization, Haifa, Israel - 08 September 2014 http://www.wst.univie.ac.at/topics/taproviz14/ In conjunction with the 12th International Conference on Business Process Management BPM2014 - http://bpm2014.haifa.ac.il/ ======================== Call for Papers ======================== Visualizations can make the structure and dependencies between elements in processes accessible in order to support users who need to analyze process models and their instances. However, effectively visualizing processes in a user-friendly way is often a big challenge, especially for complex process models which can consist of hundreds of process components (e.g., process activities, data flows, and resources) and thousands of running process instances in different execution states. Many challenges remain to be addressed within the broad area of process visualization such as: scalability, human-computer interaction, cognitive aspects, applicability of different approaches, collaboration, process evolution, run-time requirements of process instances and applications, etc. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): * Visual Metaphors in Processes * Visual Design and Aesthetics for Processes * Visualization of Dynamic Data in Processes * Change Visualization for Processes * Interface and Interaction Techniques for Process Visualization * Visualization Techniques for Collaboration and Distributed Processes * Visualization of Large-scale Processes * Cognition and Perception in Process Visualization * Evaluation and User Studies of Process Visualization * Visual Modeling Languages * Analysis Techniques and Visualization for Processes * Process Visualization of Large Screens * Mobile Process Visualization * Visualization Tools and Systems for Processes * Visualization Techniques for Processes * Process Visualization and Sonification * Virtual World Process Visualization * Immersive Process Modeling Approaches * 3D Process Visualization Approaches ======================== Format of the Workshop ======================== The half day workshop will comprise accepted papers and tool evaluations. Papers should be submitted in advance and will be reviewed by at least three members of the program committee. This year will also include a new innovation in the programme. Part of the workshop time (depending on the number of prototype submissions) will be set aside for focus group assessments of tools. We will be requesting tool report authors, successful workshop paper authors and panel members attending BPM, to assist in the assessment of demonstration visualization techniques and software. This evaluation process will be a service to attendees, as these heuristic assessments can be written up later as separate papers, or by the workshop chairs as an aggregated workshop outcome. Such evaluations will be an exciting addition to the workshop, as people experienced in Information Visualization, BPM, HCI and related fields, will provide detailed feedback on your prototypes. The evaluation approach is largely in the hands of the tool report writers, but at a minimum, should involve direct interaction with your software and some form of validation via a questionnaire. All accepted papers will appear in the workshop proceedings published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing (LNBIP) series. There will be a single LNBIP volume dedicated to the proceedings of all BPM workshops. As this volume will appear after the conference, there will be informal proceedings during the workshop. At least one author for each accepted paper should register for the workshop and present the paper. ======================== Important Dates ======================== * Deadline for workshop paper submissions: 1 June 2014 * Notification of Acceptance: 1 July 2014 * Camera-ready version: 23 July 2014 * TAProViz Workshop: 8 September 2014 ======================== Paper Submission ======================== Prospective authors are invited to submit papers for presentation in any of the areas listed above. Three types of submissions are possible: * (1) full papers (12 pages long) reporting mature research results * (2) position papers reporting research that may be in preliminary stage that has not yet been evaluated * (3) tool reports, to be evaluated at the workshop Position papers and tool reports should be no longer than 6 pages. Tool reports should include a brief evaluation plan as an appendix, for the evaluation session at the workshop on the day. Papers must be in English and must present original research contributions not concurrently submitted elsewhere. Papers should be submitted in the LNBIP format. 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). All accepted workshop papers will be published by Springer as a post-workshop proceedings volume in the series Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing (LNBIP). Hard copies of these proceedings will be shipped to all registered participants approximately four months after the workshops, while preliminary proceedings will be distributed during the workshop. Submitted papers will be evaluated, in a double blind manner, on the basis of significance, originality, technical quality, and exposition. Papers should clearly establish their research contribution and the relation to the theory and application of process visualization. ======================== Registration ======================== Accepted papers imply that at least one of the authors will register for BPM2014 and present the paper at the TAProViz workshop. Further workshop information is available from the website:http://www.wst.univie.ac.at/topics/taproviz14/ Hope to see you at TAProViz'14!

Governments and businesses start thinking about technology as critical enabler to solve the rising urbanization issues and improve the citiesâ?? environments according to a set of priorities. Wireless and network technologies, the Internet of Things, cloud computing and artificial intelligence are only few of the solutions toward products and services that are expected and applied to make the cities "smarter", and comfortable in the context of transport, climate, food, energy, buildings, health, products, etc. A Smart City concept refers to acknowledged initiatives, such as e-Home, e-Office, e-Government, e-Health, e-Education and e-Traffic. It is based on self-monitoring and self-response by pooling server and network infrastructures, and respective clients together to ensure the effective interconnection of the urban substructures, for example administration, education, healthcare, transportation, public safety, real estates, and implying intelligent adaptation to the citizensâ?? needs. Against this background, smart environments concentrate on automatic computing, self-awareness, self-configuration, self-protection, and self-optimization. Â This special issue of the KM&EL international journal is dedicated to recent opportunities, experiences and expectations that the emergent number of cities, applying the Smart City concept, face in designing and providing education that is striving to shape the new generation of the Smart Citizens. Â Barcelona and Chicago, Malta and Dubai, Singapore and Amsterdam, Sejong, Bilbao, Suzhou, Kazan, Alexandria, New Yorkâ?¦This is a non-embracing list of continuously emerging Smart City projects around the globe. Various definitions that evolved from Digital City through Wireless City to Smart City and recently Smart City of the Future make us aware that technology and infrastructures are the leading aspect of the Smart City concept. However, there is no single approach to a Smart City, and no one-size-fits-all approach to a Smart City. Â Exactly this fact evolves to an opportunity for educational arrangements in Smart Cities and represents the focus of this Special Issue that calls for a broad spectrum of education technology, curriculum design and methodology design experiences, theories and implementations in a Smart City setting by considering a wide-ranging variety of aspects including new opportunities for learning and instructional theories, technology-enhanced learning, curriculum, skills and career development in a highly interconnected networked environment, knowledge management, assessment, etc. This special issue aims to provide a forum for academics and practitioners to explore issues related to the design, application and evaluation of the Smart City concept in education, and human performance development. Â The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Next generation learning, training and assessment environments for higher education, open learning, lifelong learning, family and community learning Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Infrastructures for skills and career development Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Next generation learning design Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Infrastructures for knowledge management and quality management by highlighting the interrelationship between e-Home, e-Office, e-Government, e-Health, e-Education and e-Traffic Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Curriculum development and the need for a fast changing adaptation Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Impact of technology on learning by highlighting ecological monitoring and visualization of data flows for smart/adaptive learning, mobile social media for ubiquitous learning, use of open data and ubiquitous information, privacy and security Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Interrelationship between e-Education and e-Health by highlighting technology-enhanced clinical practice and training, digital media for healthcare knowledge dissemination, use of social media for disease and health management, online patient communities and clinician-patient collaboration Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Interrelationship between e-Education and social inclusion by highlighting open and museum education, strengthening cultural profiles of citizens through active partnerships among institutions, building social and cultural capital using digital media Â·Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Obstacles, future needs, and measures of success of the Smart City concept toward education and interrelated settings Â We are interested in both theoretical and practical papers that aim to improve learning and human performance in a Smart City by applying the latest technological advances toward user-oriented solutions. We would like to stimulate interest in the issues across academia, practice, industry, research and policy, and therefore we welcome focused papers from all sectors.

Ganz interessant, vor allem im kontext mit unseren aktuellen IoT aktivitäten.. -gn -------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] Call for Articles: Special Theme on Sensor-based Learning Support and Technologies in the Bulletin of the IEEE Technical Committee on Learning Technology Datum: Thu, 1 May 2014 13:56:36 -0600 Von: Sabine Graf <sabine.graf(a)ieee.org> An: <wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de> Call For Articles BULLETIN OF THE TECHNICAL COMMITTEE ON LEARNING TECHNOLOGY (ISSN 2306-0212) Special Theme: SENSOR-BASED LEARNING SUPPORT AND TECHNOLOGIES publication of IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Learning Technology (TCLT) * Guest editor: Marcus Specht, Open Universiteit Nederland. * Deadline for submission: May 31, 2014 Making use of available data to track learners and their learning progress is at the core of many computer based educational systems. This is especially the case for adaptive educational systems which use this data/information for adaptive, user-centred instruction, personalization of interaction with the learner and formative/summative assessment. While the idea of using sensors has often been used in physical and advanced sports training, life logging and sensor tracking applications are beginning to make their way into a wide range of application fields as health, nutrition, life-style, fitness, sleep, and productivity. New kinds of sensor-devices support users in monitoring their health, weight, sleep behavior and other aspects of their daily lives. Technically it is possible to track stationary activities, geo-spatial movements, physical activities (for amount and intensity), social relationships, consumer habits and even eating behaviour, as well as detailed bio-physiological data about learners and their daily practices such as alertness, learning capacity, et cetera). Nevertheless there is a core question about the underlying mechanisms and how these new forms of user tracking and the feedback based on this information can be best integrated in instructional designs and educational systems. As a core principle, even redundant information visualized in feedback-loops in the right context can be an efficient means for improving self-regulation. The special issue will collect the range of possible applications of sensor-based feedback technologies and learning support technologies making use of sensor information mostly in real-time but also post-hoc. This issue will be published in Vol. 16, No 2 of the Bulletin of the Technical Committee on Learning Technology. Articles that are not in the area of the special theme are most welcome as well and will be published in the regular article section. For further information please see http://www.ieeetclt.org/content/bulletin. * Special Theme Submission procedure: 1. The articles in the bulletin are limited to 4 pages. Over-length articles will not be published. 2. Please follow the format guidelines at: http://www.ieeetclt.org/content/authors-guidelines. 3. The manuscripts should be either in Word or RTF format. Any figures used in the contributions would be required separately in a graphic format (gif or jpeg). The figures should also be embedded in the text at appropriate places. 4. Please send the manuscripts by email as attachment to the guest editor of this special theme Marcus.Specht(a)ou.nl (Subject: Submission to TCLT bulletin). 5. In the email, please state clearly that the manuscript is original material that has not been published, and is not being considered for publication elsewhere. -- 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
