-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] 2nd CFP SI on Knowledge-based Software Engineering - Science of Computer Programming Datum: Tue, 13 Jan 2015 09:55:56 +0100 Von: Rafael Valencia Garcia <valencia(a)um.es> An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> 2nd Call for Papers ******************************************** The reception of contributions is now open ******************************************** Special Issue on Knowledge-based Software Engineering in Science of Computer Programming Journal, Elsevier (5-Year impact factor 0.810 according to Thomson Scientific 2013 Journal Citations Report) Special issue publication date: March 2016 http://www.journals.elsevier.com/science-of-computer-programming/call-for-p… Objective Knowledge-based technologies provide a consistent and reliable basis to face the challenges for organization, manipulation and visualization of the data and knowledge, playing a crucial role as the technological basis of the development of a large number of information systems. On the other hand, software engineering comprises different processes and techniques that support the specification, development, and maintenance of software. Knowledge-based software engineering is focused in automating the software engineering life cycle, software engineering resources which are shifting towards knowledge acquisition and the automated reuse of expert knowledge for developing software artifacts. Knowledge in software applications is becoming more significant because the domains of many software applications are inherently knowledge-intensive and this knowledge is often not explicitly dealt with in software development. This impedes maintenance and reuse. Moreover, it is generally known that developing software requires expertise and experience, which are currently also implicit and could be made more tangible and reusable using knowledge-based or related techniques. Examples of approaches that are directly related to this tendency are knowledge engineering, ontologies, conceptual modeling, domain analysis and domain engineering, business rules, workflow management, to mention but a few. Nowadays, enterprises handle different types of knowledge that are often inter-related, and which must be managed in a consistent way. For instance, software engineering involves the integration of various knowledge sources that are in constant change. Therefore, tools and techniques are necessary to capture and process knowledge in order to facilitate subsequent development efforts, especially in the domain of software engineering. With the use of new proposals on how using the knowledge in a multitude of ways and in all phases of software development can be advantageous. This special issue aims at exploring the recent advances in the application of knowledge-based technologies in Software Engineering area soliciting original scientific contributions in the form of theoretical foundations, case studies, techniques, tools, and applications of knowledge-based software engineering theory and practice. The topics of this special issue include but are not limited to: • Knowledge Representation in Software Engineering • Knowledge Acquisition in Software Engineering • Knowledge driven Software Engineering • Case-based reasoning in Software Engineering • Ontology Engineering in Software Engineering • Semantic Interoperability • Semantic Data Models • Semantic Service Oriented Architectures • Natural Language Processing applied to Software Engineering • Applications and Case-studies • Decision support methods for software engineering • Development processes for knowledge-based applications • Empirical/evaluation studies for knowledge-based applications • Knowledge engineering for process management and project management • Knowledge management for business processes, workflows and enterprise modeling • Knowledge technologies for service-oriented systems, Internet of services and Internet of things Knowledge-based methods and tools for software engineering education • Knowledge-based methods and tools for testing, verification and validation, maintenance and evolution in software engineering • Knowledge-based methods for software metrics • Knowledge-based requirements engineering, domain analysis and modeling • Methodology and tools for knowledge discovery and data mining Instructions for authors Papers submitted must have not been published previously or under consideration for publication, though they may represent significant extensions of prior work. Manuscripts should be submitted online at http://ees.elsevier.com/scico/ (see the EES User Guide for Authors). Authors should select "SI on KB Soft.

Ciudad Real (which means ‘Royal City’ in Spanish) is a city located in the Southern Central part of Spain, in the region of Castilla-La Mancha, which is the “Don Quixote” region. It is not easy to categorize Castilla-La Mancha, for it is a region of great variety and complexity. On the one hand, there is the ruddy red earth, the windmills, and simple whitewashed villages of the province of Ciudad Real (which encompasses most of the area commonly called La Mancha). But there are also the strangely sculpted cliffs of Cuenca and Albacete, the hilly woodlands of Guadalajara and the dark mystery and ancient cultures of Toledo.It is perfectly located for transport connections, as it is only 1 hour away from the main cities of Spain: Madrid (1 hr by high speed train), Barcelona (less than 1 hour by plane), Toledo (1 hr by car), Córdoba (70 minutes by high speed train) and Sevilla (2 hr by high speed train). It is a modern city, one of the very few in Spain where you can forget your problems and have time to enjoy yourself. Ciudad Real’s citizens love the outdoors, enjoying the weather and people. Their hospitality and open mindedness make visiting this city an experience that nobody should miss. _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP: General Theories of Software Engineering (due 30 Jan) Datum: Thu, 22 Jan 2015 13:41:35 +1300 Von: Paul Ralph <paulralph(a)gmail.com> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org The 4th ICSE Workshop on General Theories of Software Engineering (GTSE 2015) http://semat.org/?page_id=1364 Monday, May 18, 2015, Florence, ItalyÂ In conjunction with the International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE 2015) (http://2015.icse-conferences.org/) Key Dates Paper submission deadline: ***Extended to Â January 30, 2015****Â Paper acceptance notification: Â February 18, 2015 Camera-ready accepted paper deadline: Â February 27, 2015Â Workshop: Â May 18, 2015 Workshop Overview Most academic disciplines emphasize the importance of their core, central or general theories. Examples of general theories include Big Bang Theory, Maxwellâs equations, The Theory of the Cell, The Theory of Evolution, Supply and Demand, Structuration Theory, The General Theory of Crime, Pure Theory of Law and The Theory of Marriage. Software engineering meanwhile, has not produced widely-accepted general theories. Lack of theory undermines the perceived scientific legitimacy of the field, curtails education and impedes development of a cumulative body of knowledge. GTSE consequently supports attempts to propose, synthesize, clarify and test core, central and general theories in the software engineering domain. GTSE especially promotes attempts to answer fundamental questions, integrate ideas from diverse sources and propose revolutionary, contrarian and generally ambitious new theories.Â Keynote by Professor Barry Boehm Developing and Evolving a Value-Based Theory of Software Engineering The development of a value-based theory of software engineering began in the 1980s with attempts to find a theory of project management that was simple, general, and specific, for use in teaching software engineering and managing software projects at TRW.Â After trying to tailor various management heroes such as Theories X, Y, and Z, the stakeholder win-win Theory W emerged in 1988-89.Â It then evolved over software management experiences at TRW and DARPA and participation in the value-based software engineering community into a more fully-articulated theory presented in the 2005 book, Value-Based Software Engineering.Â Subsequent application, evolution, and student PhD dissertations led to its current form, along with associated processes, tools, and generalization to systems engineering.Â This presentation includes a discussion and set of criteria for a good theory, elaboration of the theory and process and its application to a representative project, and a summary of its ! evaluation with respect to the criteria for a good theory. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): New theories in software engineering Groundbreaking extensions to existing theories Groundbreaking synthesis of existing theories Novel applications of theories from reference disciplines (e.g. sociology) to software engineering Grounded theory, ethnography and qualitative approaches to theory building Systematic literature review and thematic synthesis, leading to new theory Empirical evaluation of general theories Software engineering process theories Research methodologies for general theory evaluation Addressing core questions for a general theory: How can a general theory of software engineering be of practical use? What core phenomena should it explain? What questions should it address? What should its main concepts be? How are they related? How should it be expressed? How can it be tested? How can it gain acceptance throughout both the academic community and industry? Contrarian perspectives on software engineering theory Possible Contributions include (but are not limited to): Theory proposals with conceptual evaluations Theory building empirical field studies including grounded theory, case studies and ethnography Theory building, explorative lab studies, experiments and simulations Empirical evaluations of general, central or core theories (any research approach welcome) Systematic literature reviews and thematic analyses Conceptual contributions related to research methodology Position papers on general theory topics Submissions We welcome full papers (up to 12 pages) and short papers (up to 4 pages) to allow submissions of not only developed research but also early ideas and position papers. The papers must follow ICSE technical papers formatting guidelines:Â http://2015.icse-conferences.org/submission-guidelinesÂ and they should be submitted to the workshop's EasyChair site:Â https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=gtse2015.

The scientific community has realized the importance of aligning information systems engineering and security engineering in order to develop more secure information systems. Nevertheless, there is lack of an appropriate event that will promote information systems security within the context of information systems engineering. The proposed workshop fulfils this gap. The workshop aims to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners to present, discuss and debate on one hand the latest research work on methods, models, practices and tools for secure information systems engineering, and on the other hand relevant industrial applications, recurring challenges, problems and industrial led solutions at the area of secure information systems engineering. Topics of particular interest include (but are not limited to) * Security and privacy analysis methods and models * Security and privacy design methods and models * Security and privacy testing methods and models * Security and privacy modelling Support Tools * Integrating functional, security and privacy requirements * Threat-driven and Model-driven security * Secure IS interoperability modelling * Security and process modelling * Modelling Security and Trust * Managing Secure Software development * Security in Agile Software Development Methods * Methodologies and models for evaluating IS security and privacy aspects * Formal methods for modelling security * Models and approaches for the verification of security and privacy properties * Approaches for managing security changes in IS * Component-based, Aspect-oriented, Agent-based, Pattern-based, agile-based Information system Security development and evolution methods * Methods, models and tools for workflow and Business Process Security * Case studies in modelling secure IS * Security Architectures and Patterns for Information Systems * Semantic Web Technologies applied to Security * Ontologies for IS security * Security Engineering for specific Information Systems (e-Services, databases, mobile, internet, social networks, cloud, etc.) * Security Engineering for SOA Systems * Methods for security reengineering * Software Security Knowledge * Enterprise Software Security * Cloud Forensics Requirements and Tools * Methods, models and techniques for data anonymization * Open Data and security * Security and product lines * Security of externalized IS Submission ********** Prospective authors are invited to submit papers in any of the topics of the workshop. The results described must be unpublished and must not be under review elsewhere. Only papers in English will be accepted. Manuscripts must comply with the Springer LNCS formatting rules. Prepare your manuscript as a PDF file and submit it to the workshop organizers via the EasyChair system. We accept three types of submissions: Regular Research Papers, Experience Papers and Demo/Poster Papers. **Regular Research Papers describe original solutions (theoretical, methodological or conceptual) in the field of secure information systems engineering. A regular research paper should describe the context of the work, the problem tackled, the relevant state of the art, the position or solution suggested and the benefits of the contribution. The length of regular research papers should not exceed 12 pages (including all text, figures, references and appendices.). Three to five keywords characterising the paper should be indicated at the end of the abstract. **Experience papers present application of work to case studies and industrial practice. Such papers should provide a detail description of the application setting, describe lessons learned, and discuss best practice. Experience papers should not exceed 12 pages (including all text, figures, references and appendices.). Three to five keywords characterising the paper should be indicated at the end of the abstract. **Demo/Poster papers should briefly discuss academic and/or industrial efforts on software tools and systems for secure information systems engineering. Demo/Poster papers should not exceed 1 page and they should provide a brief description of the research and software/system to be demonstrated. Poster papers are also ideal to explain a new idea and get feedback from the community. It is expected that accepted papers will be presented in the form of a live demonstration or a poster. Submissions not conforming to the LNCS format and the above page limitations or being obviously out of the scope of the workshop will be rejected without review. Registration ********** For each accepted submission, at least one author is expected to register for the workshop and attend the workshop in order to present the paper. Registration is through the CAiSEÃ15 web site. Workshop Structure **************** The workshop will combine paper presentations, poster/demonstration session, and a keynote. Moreover, accepted papers apart from presentation time, will be assigned with one or two discussants with responsibility to initiate the discussion on the paper. We are confident that such structure will support a workshop environment that will be based on discussion, debate and will therefore provide an important contribution to the relevant research community.

Fwd: [AISWorld] BPM 2015 - 2nd Call for Research Papers
by Gustaf Neumann 29 Jan '15

29 Jan '15

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] BPM 2015 - 2nd Call for Research Papers Datum: Mon, 26 Jan 2015 10:04:18 +0100 Von: Henrik Leopold <henrik.leopold(a)wu.ac.at> An: wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de, aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org, eii-associate(a)lists.eii.edu.au *********************************************************************** Call for Research Papers BPM 2015 13th International Conference on Business Process Management 31 August – 3 September 2015, Innsbruck, Austria http://bpm2015.q-e.at/ http://twitter.com/BPMConf *********************************************************************** The annual BPM conference is the leading forum for researchers, practitioners, developers and users in the field of Business Process Management (BPM) to explore and exchange knowledge on BPM. The conference covers all aspects of BPM research and practice, including theory, applications, management and technology of BPM, and engages the most renowned representatives of the BPM community worldwide in talks, tutorials, and scientific discussions. BPM as a research field and as an industry practice has significantly matured and increased its span, but is also facing new and unprecedented challenges such as a need to foster true innovation rather than improvement, to make use of big data opportunities and to account for processes that are increasingly adaptive, flexible and generative rather than structured, formalized and stable. These new topics add to existing areas of interest and relevance to BPM research and industry. They also attest to an increasingly interdisciplinary nature of BPM research, which puts the conference in close connection to disciplines such as Information Systems, Management and Organizational Science, Data and Knowledge Management, Theory of Processes, Operations Management, Service-Oriented Computing, Social Computing, Cloud Computing, Big Data, and many more. BPM 2015 will take place in Innsbruck, Austria, in the midst of Tyrol’s breathtaking scenery and stunning mountains. A university town, with a strong record of academic excellence and a vibrant student scene, Innsbruck combines tradition and splendour with modern facilities and attractions. We hope you will join us in this international conference and Olympic city to help shape the BPM methods and technologies of the future. BPM 2015 will feature an industry track, a varied set of BPM-related workshops and co-located events. For the first time, BPM 2015 will also look to host tutorials dedicated to research methods relevant to BPM. ############################ Topics ############################ In line with the emergent opportunities and challenges, BPM 2015 explicitly encourages papers that report on research in emerging BPM areas and novel applications of BPM concepts, as well as interdisciplinary BPM research that connects to Operations Research, Management Science, Artificial Intelligence, Cloud Computing, Sensor Technologies and others. To foster such submissions, BPM 2015 will include two new thematic areas, “BPM in a broader context” and “Emerging areas of BPM”. As in previous editions, the BPM conference continues to welcome research papers on traditional BPM topics such as modelling, analysis, improvement, and execution. Besides regular research papers, authors may submit industry papers, clearly marked as such. All authors of an industry paper submission *must be* from industry or industrial research labs (none of authors can be from an academic institute or a university). An industry paper reports on work within the broad topics of interests to BPM conference but is focused on practice, typically studying requirements imposed by current practice, reporting new problems, or experience on the deployment of methods, solutions, tools or systems in practice. Similar to research papers, industry submissions will be reviewed by multiple PC members including representatives from industry and industrial research labs, and are required to meet the same high quality standards for novelty, technical quality, clarity of the contribution and presentation, and relevance to the topics of interest in BPM community. Thematic areas in which contributions are sought include, but are not limited to, those listed below. Submissions may fit more than one category, however, corresponding authors will be asked to nominate one primary category for submission. As previously, each major topic is championed by senior PC members, who will promote the topic and lead the review processes taking into consideration specific characteristics of the particular thematic area. * BPM in a broader context: the intersection of BPM and other disciplines Topic champions: Avigdor Gal, Roel Wieringa, Mathias Weske * Decision management and BPM * Event handling and BPM * BPM and enterprise architecture * BPM and auditing * Automated planning in BPM * Sensor technologies and BPM * Scientific workflows and BPM * Software process management * Security and Risk Management in business process execution * Operations research for business processes * BPM in healthcare and the medical context * Emerging areas of BPM Topic champions: Florian Daniel, Akhil Kumar, Farouk Toumani * BPM in and for the Cloud * BPM with and for the Crowd * Social BPM * User-centric aspects of BPM * Human-centric processes and knowledge-intensive processes * Processes in the Internet of Things and Wearable Devices * Mobile processes * Collective adaptive processes * Management and applications of BPM Topic champions: Jan vom Brocke, Hajo Reijers, Michael Rosemann * Business process lifecycle management * Relationship between business strategy and business processes * Business process transformation and change management * Success factors and measures in BPM * BPM governance and compliance management * BPM maturity * Adoption and Practice of BPM * Customer process management * Design-led process innovation * Process execution and data management Topic champions: Boudewijn van Dongen, Marlon Dumas, Michael zur Muehlen, Stefanie Rinderle-Ma * Process-oriented and service-oriented software architectures * Business process management systems * Resource management in business process execution * Managing process execution data * Process monitoring and performance measurement * Adaptive and context-aware process execution * Process mining * Analytics and visualization of big process data * Process data warehousing * (Adaptive) Case management * Data and event streams in business processes * Data integration and data quality in business processes * Fundamentals and theory of processes Topic champions: Jörg Desel, Marcello La Rosa, Pnina Soffer, Jianwen Su * Foundations of business processes and process models * Process description and analysis methods and formalisms * Algorithms for the analysis of processes * Reference process models * Foundation of process design and synthesis * Artefact-centric processes * Process architectures * Variability and configuration of processes * Managing process collections and repositories ############################ Submission Instructions ############################ Papers should be formatted according to Springer's LNCS formatting guidelines (for instructions and style sheets see http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html). Submissions must be in English and not exceed 16 pages of length. The title page must contain a short abstract clarifying the relation of the paper with the topics above. The paper must clearly state the problem being addressed, the goal of the work, the results achieved, and the relation to other work. Student papers must be clearly marked as such. Concerning length and formatting, student papers must follow the same guidelines as research papers. Papers should be submitted electronically in PDF format via the BPM 2015 EasyChair submission site: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=bpm2015 Submissions must be original contributions that have not been published previously, nor already submitted to other conferences or journals in parallel with this conference. Empirical papers should where possible build on novel datasets previously unpublished. Research on existing datasets must clearly explain the novelty of the applied analysis. All accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. For each accepted paper, at least one author must register for the conference and present the paper. Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit a paper for a special issue of Information Systems (Elsevier). This year, first-time submitters to BPM may ask to be considered for a pre-submission shepherding program in which a BPM PC member gives advise on the presentation and positioning of a paper. Interested candidates are encouraged to contact the PC-Chairs (bpm2015(a)easychair.org) by 6th of February, 2015. ############################ Key Dates ############################ * Abstract submission: 08.03.2015 * Full papers submission: 15.03.2015 * Notifications: 15.05.2015 * Camera ready papers: 15.06.2015 ############################ Conference Committee ############################ General Chair * Barbara Weber, University of Innsbruck Program Chairs * Hamid Motahari, IBM Research – San Jose * Jan Recker, Queensland University of Technology * Matthias Weidlich, Imperial College London Industry Chairs * Jan Mendling, WU Vienna * Jan vom Brocke, University of Liechtenstein Workshop Chairs * Manfred Reichert, University of Ulm * Hajo Reijers, TU Eindhoven Demo Chairs * Florian Daniel, University of Trento * Stefan Zugal, University of Innsbruck Tutorial and Panel Chairs * Pnina Soffer, University of Haifa * Jakob Pinggera, University of Innsbruck Doctoral Consortium Chairs * Mathias Weske, University of Potsdam * Stefanie Rinderle-Ma, University of Vienna Local Organization Chair * Ilona Zaremba, University of Innsbruck * Cornelia Haisjackl, University of Innsbruck Web and Social Media Chairs * Cornelia Haisjackl, University of Innsbruck * Jakob Pinggera, University of Innsbruck * Stefan Zugal, University of Innsbruck Publicity Chairs * Henrik Leopold, WU Vienna (Europe) * Michael zur Muehlen, Stevens Institute of Technology (North America) * Lucinea Thom, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (South America) * Lijie Wen, Tshingua University (Asia) * Amin Beheshti, University of New South Wales (Australia) _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org
