-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] CFP: 3rd International Workshop on Smart Sensor Protocols and Algorithms (SSPA 2015) - Munich, Germany, October 5-7, 2015 Datum: Tue, 30 Jun 2015 22:37:41 +0200 Von: Sandra Sendra <sandra.sendra.upv(a)gmail.com> An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> [Please accept our apologies if you receive multiple copies of this email] *********************** CFP ******************************* 3rd International Workshop on Smart Sensor Protocols and Algorithms (SSPA 2015) http://jlloret.webs.upv.es/sspa2015/ in conjunction with The 8th IFIP Wireless and Mobile Networking Conference (WMNC' 15) Munich, Germany, October 5-7, 2015. http://www.wmnc2015.com/ SCOPE: Smart Sensor protocols and algorithms make use of several methods and techniques (such as machine learning techniques, decision making techniques, knowledge representation, network optimization, problem solution techniques, and so on), to establish communication between network devices. They can be used to perceive the network conditions, or the user behavior, in order to dynamically plan, adapt, decide, take the appropriate actions, and learn from the consequences of their actions. The algorithms can make use of the information gathered from the protocol in order to sense the environment, plan actions according to the input, take consciousness of what is happening in the environment, and take the appropriate decisions using a reasoning engine. Goals such as decide which scenario fits best its end-to-end purpose, or environment prediction, can be achieved with smart protocols and algorithms. Moreover, they could learn from the past and use this knowledge to improve future de! cisions. In this workshop, researchers are encouraged to submit papers focused on the design, development, analysis or optimization of smart sensor protocols or algorithms at any communication layer. Algorithms and protocols based on artificial intelligence techniques for network management, network monitoring, quality of service enhancement, performance optimization and network secure are included in the workshop. This conference edition once again targets to gather researchers from academia and industrial sectors to present analytical research, simulations, practical results, position papers addressing the pros and cons of specific proposals, and advances in sensor protocols and algorithms. The topics suggested by the conference can be discussed in term of concepts, state of the art, standards, deployments, implementations, running experiments and applications.

Since 2004, established scholars, young researchers and doctoral students interested in the study of people, ICT and work and play have gathered at the SIG-SI ASIS&T Annual Research Symposium to share their work and ideas. Approximately 110 papers, posters and panels have been presented and for the past three years, we have given awards for the best papers published by Social Informatics (SI) faculty and students in the preceding years. This year we gather to celebrate a decade of intellectually challenging and engaging work in SI and hope that you will join us. Our goal remains the same: to disseminate current research and research in progress that investigates the social aspects of information and communication technologies (ICT) across all areas of ASIS&T. Building on the success of past years, the symposium includes members of many SIGs and defines “social” broadly to include critical and historical approaches as well as contemporary social analysis. It also defines “technology” broadly to include traditional technologies (i.e., paper), state-of-the-art computer systems, and mobile and pervasive devices. Submissions may include empirical, critical and theoretical work, as well as richly described practice cases and demonstrations. We are particularly interested in work that assumes a critical stance towards the Symposium’s theme but are also soliciting research on other related social informatics topics. We encourage all scholars interested in social aspects of ICT (broadly defined) to share their research and research in progress by submitting an extended abstract of their work and attending the symposium. Papers that take social informatics further in theoretical conceptualization or empirical grounding are of particular interest to SIG-SI this year as we celebrate a decade of Symposia in ASIS&T. This year’s conference theme is “Information Science with Impact: Research in and for the Community.” In keeping with this theme, the symposium is also soliciting work from Social Informatics researchers that focuses on the impact of their work on industry, government, local/national/global community groups, individuals, information systems, GLAMs, and on other practice contexts. We are interested in work that addresses questions and issues such as the following: • What are the social, political, economic, and legal implications of social informatics research? • What are the ways in which social informatics research impacts various organizations, groups, and communities of practice? • How can social informatics researchers work more closely with members of these communities? • What can a social informatics approach tell us about roles of information and communication technologies in the work and social practices of people in these communities? • What are the challenges and opportunities of engaging in SI work that seeks to understand and improve the work and social lives of people in these communities? The schedule for the workshop will involve the presentations of papers and the best social informatics paper awards for 2013 (call to follow). We expect an engaging discussion with lively interactions with the audience. Deadlines: August 9, 2014: Submit a short paper (2000 words), a poster (500 words), or a panel (1000 words) by email to Kiotta Marshall (kiomarsh(a)indiana.edu<mailto:kiomarsh@indiana.edu>) September 2, 2014: Author notifications (in time for conference early registration (NOTE: this timeline may be adjusted when the registration dates are announced).

More information about the subject of the special issue: In the Era of Exabytes (e.g., Google Datacenter is estimated to contain 15 exabytes [Munroe, 2014]), information on the world-wide internet has become too large and complex for traditional tools to analyze. Big data is the term used to describe this phenomenon. Big data can be understood primarily as the huge amounts of data generated by the Internet, mobile phones, tablets, etc. and characterized by the 3 V’s, Volume, Velocity, and Variety (Laney, D., 2001; McAffey & Brynjolfsson, 2012; O’Leary, 2013; Watson & Marjanovic, 2013) Research interested in big data has been growing quickly: Sixteen published articles/editorials in 2011 with “Big Data” in their title or topic with the numbers rising to 60 in 2012, and to 217 in 2013 (Web of Science). Organizational interest and awareness of big data is also increasing as demonstrated by articles in practitioner journals and the popular press; however, not all practitioners are well-informed on the opportunities, limitations and challenges presented by big data and throughout management knowledge gaps can be identified (Davenport, 2013; LaValle, Lesser, Shockley, Hopkins, & Kruschwitz, 2011; Watson & Marjanovic, 2013). Business analytics are “the techniques, technologies, systems, practices, methodologies, and applications”(Chen et al., 2012: 1166) that analyze big data. Analytics can help organizations to better understand the business and social environment and improve real and near real time decision making. Big data analytics, data mining and analysis, now include text, Web, network, and mobile analytics. The reach of big data and analytic knowledge is impressive and pervasive. Diverse areas such as e-commerce, market intelligence, e-government, science and technology, health and wellbeing, and security and public safety are all making use of big data and innovative analytics (Chen et al., 2012). However, big data is complex and so is the analysis of it. Extracting valuable knowledge from big data might only be possible for a limited number of highly trained personnel. Can such knowledge be made available organization wide, so everybody can benefit from it? Big data and analytics present both opportunities and challenges in many areas of business and government. This special issue is concerned with how Knowledge Management (KM) can help address these challenges. For more than two decades KM has addressed issues of information and knowledge management in organizations and in particular in relationship to organizational decision-making. As such, KM and Knowledge Management Systems (KMS) can offer both tools and conceptual understanding in the management and use of big data and analytics in organizational management and decision-making.

Such issue presents advancements in the state-of-the-art, standards, and practices of software security, in an effort to identify emerging trends that will ultimately define the future of “the software security.” This special issue focuses on advanced research in the practical applications and the theoretical foundations of software security, through presentation of the most up-to-date advances and new directions of research in the field from various scholarly, professional, and practitioner perspectives. An interdisciplinary look at software security including engineering and business aspects, such issue covers and encourages high-quality research exposition. This issue will explore the foundations of software security. The important software vulnerabilities and attacks will be considered that exploit them -- such as buffer overflows, SQL injection, and session hijacking -- and defenses will be also considered that prevent or mitigate these attacks, including advanced testing and program analysis techniques. Importantly, we take a "build security in" mentality, considering techniques at each phase of the development cycle that can be used to strengthen the security of software systems. The objective of this special issue is to capture the latest advances in this research field. Topics of interest include but are not limited to the ones listed below: - Penetration testing - Software Security Technologies & services - Software Security Applications - Software Security Architecture - Software Security Patterns - Software Security Standard - Built-in security - Low-level, memory-based attacks - User data protection.

SoEA and influence of social and big data in Enterprise Engineering - How does SoEA have to change in order to comply with the new possibilities of Big Data (volume, variety, velocity, veracity)? - What are the information flows of Big Data integrated into Enterprise Architecture? - How does social production influence SoEA? - How can the creation of weak ties be supported in SoEA? - How to support collective decision processes in SoEA? - How does SoEA interrelate with cloud computing? - How are Enterprise Architectures designed using cloud-services? - How differ cloud-services from other kinds of services? - How are Enterprise Architectures designed using cloud-environments? ----------------- SUBMISSION ----------------- Full papers (10 pages in the IEEE-CS format) describing mature results are sought. In addition, short/position papers (5 pages in the IEEE-CS format) may be submitted to facilitate discussion of recent research results and ongoing projects. Industry experience reports provide new insights gained in case studies or when applying service-oriented EA for enterprise engineering are also welcome. 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 contributions will be peer reviewed based on the complete version, being full or short. Please note that all submissions should be made in PDF format and comply with the [IEEE Computer Society Conference Proceedings Format Guidelines](http://www.computer.org/portal/web/cscps/formatting). The post-proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press and be made accessible through IEEE Xplore and the IEEE Computer Society Digital Library. *Please submit your paper to Easychair *at *https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=soea4ee2015* At least one author of each accepted workshop paper will have to register for the whole EDOC 2015 conference and attend the workshop to present the paper. Analogously to previous years, there will be no workshop-only registration at EDOC 2015. If a paper is not presented in the workshop, it will be removed from the workshop post-proceedings published in the IEEE Xplore digital library.
