Fwd: [computational.science] PAM 2016 - Call for Papers
by Gustaf Neumann 17 Aug '15

17 Aug '15

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] PAM 2016 - Call for Papers Datum: Mon, 17 Aug 2015 14:15:59 +0200 Von: Antonis Papadogiannakis <papadog(a)ics.forth.gr> An: Computational Science Mailing List <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> Passive and Active Measurement Conference 2016 (PAM 2016) 31 March - 1 April 2016 Heraklion, Crete, Greece http://www.ics.forth.gr/pam2016/ <http://www.ics.forth.gr/pam2016/> Call for Papers PAM seeks to bring together both the network research and operations communities to consider network measurement and analysis techniques, particularly those in the earlier stages of research. PAM has in the past focused on research and practical applications of network measurement at Layer-3. However, over the last years PAM broadened its scope to encompass measurements of networked applications, content distribution networks, online social networks, overlay networks, and more. Measurement technology is needed at all layers of the stack: for power profiling of hardware components; at the MAC/network/transport layers; as well as up the stack for application profiling and even to collect user feedback. Measurement technologies are being designed for the digital home, residential access networks, wireless and mobile access, enterprise, ISP and data center networks. Although PAM traditionally attracts work that is at an early stage, works that are a reappraisal or independent validation of previous results, or which enhance the reproducibility of network measurement research, for instance by publishing new datasets on an existing topic, are explicitly included in PAM's ambit. Original papers are invited, but not limited to, the following topics: Tools and infrastructure: Passive and active measurement tools: techniques, design and experience Management and operation of measurement infrastructures Management and visualization of measurement data Measurements across the stack: Application-layer, e.g., social networks, crowdsourcing or gaming End user performance and quality of experience Protocol behavior: e.g., DNS, DHCP, or routing protocols Wireless and mobility Correlation of measurements across multiple layers, protocols or networks Security and privacy Troubleshooting and anomaly detection Data centers, cloud services, SDNs and NFV Content distribution Characterization & modeling Studies of network usage, or end-host behavior Metrics and measurements of resilience and dependability Techniques for measurements and measurement-based inference of macroscopic Internet structure, dynamics, and evolution Important Dates Paper Registration: October 9, 2015 Paper Submission: October 16, 2015 Notification: December 18, 2015 Organizing Committee General Chair: Xenofontas Dimitropoulos (University of Crete, Greece) Program Chair: Thomas Karagiannis (Microsoft Research, UK) Publicity Chair: Antonis Papadogiannakis (FORTH-ICS, Greece) Website: http://www.ics.forth.gr/pam2016/ <http://www.ics.forth.gr/pam2016/>

Fwd: [AISWorld] CFP - Special issue in ITD, Conceptualizations of Development in ICT4D
by Gustaf Neumann 17 Aug '15

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP - Special issue in ITD, Conceptualizations of Development in ICT4D Datum: Mon, 17 Aug 2015 11:53:33 +0000 Von: Mathias Hatakka <Mathias.Hatakka(a)oru.se> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Call for papers The Journal of Information Technology for Development Special Issue on: Conceptualizations of Development in ICT4D - what is development, and how do we know when it is happening? Special Issue editors Mathias Hatakka (Örebro University School of Business, Sweden) Yingqin Zheng (Royal Holloway, University of London, UK) Sundeep Sahay (University of Oslo, Norway) Annika Andersson (Örebro University School of Business, Sweden) Editor-in-Chief of ITD Sajda Qureshi (College of Information Science & Technology, University of Nebraska at Omaha, USA) Aims and Scope Definitions of central concepts in a field are important as they affect what we do and how we understand the phenomena we study. When we talk about “development”, what are we talking about? The concept of “development” refers to different things depending on ideology, philosophical outlook, social norms, individual beliefs, methodological approaches, and political views. They also tend to change over time. Depending on one’s perspective, “development” could mean economic growth, diffusion of technology, improvement of well-being, establishment of certain institutions or citizen-state relationship, expansion of individual agency, equitable distribution of resources and/or opportunities, human rights, gender equality, and many more. However, most ICT4D studies are ambivalent about what kind of development is implicated in a particular piece of research. While the literature has covered a wide range of development-related topics, such as education, healthcare, gender, freedom of speech, digital divide, little research in ICT4D explicitly discusses what development really means and how development is linked to ICT use (Andersson & Hatakka, 2013; Brown & Grant, 2010; Thapa & Sæbø, 2011; Walsham & Sahay, 2006). A high proportion of ICT4D publications focus on the adoption of technology itself, while others may employ indicators other than technology acceptance rate, or combine different indicators to provide a more holistic approach to evaluating the impact of ICT in development (Hatakka, 2013). As Zheng (2009) suggests, ICT4D researchers should identify which “space” of development technologies seeks to intervene. On this basis, the selection of theoretical perspectives is of high importance, as they allow us to see, and focus on, different aspects of development. The ICT4D field is replete with approaches originating in various disciplines. For example, economic theories, the capability approach, gender theories, Seeking to raise conceptual awareness in our field, this special issue calls for papers that consider how we define development and how we conceive the role of ICT in relation to development. In particular, we encourage critical and reflective discussions of when and how we can claim that ICT contributes to development. Beyond the actual definition, this includes epistemological issues regarding how we can come to know when, how and why development takes place, as well as methodological issues regarding how we can evaluate development processes and outcomes. The Journal of Information Technology for Development has previously illustrated the importance of these discussions – see for instance Andersson & Grönlund (ITD 18-1), Byrne, Nicholson & Salem (ITD 17-1), Madon & Bada (ITD 12-3), Silva & Westrup (ITD 15-2), Zheng (ITD 15-2), and Qureshi (ITD 19-3). The present special issue builds upon the existing body of work and solicits research that investigates the various ways in which development has been viewed in ICT4D, ideas on how it should be viewed, discussions of how and why the notion of development is changing, and epistemological questions of how we can measure and evaluate how and when development is taking place. We invite papers on the following sub-topics: 1. How do we define development in ICT4D? What assumptions underpin a particular definition of development? On which conceptual basis is a definition of development constructed? 2. How can we assess, measure, and evaluate development in a particular context of ICT4D? This could include critical discussion of various development indexes, such as Gross Domestic Product, the Human Development Index, the Happiness Index, and so on. 3. What should ICT-based development interventions focus on? This could be analysed in the light of which “space” of development is being addressed. For example, in relation to gender, are we seeking to promote equal access to technology between men and women, or to enhance the agency of women? 4. Which social processes are enacted in a particular space of ICT4D? How do we understand and assess the affordances of ICTs in these processes? 5. What are the roles of institutions and governance models in ICT4D? For example, how should responsibility and liability for development be distributed and managed? 6. How can we understand, describe, and evaluate the relations between the use of ICTs and development? What could be the impact of technology for development, including positive as well as negative influences? 7. What are the strengths and limitations of various conceptual devices and theoretical lenses? What do the lenses we use allow us to see? And what are the lenses we use filtering out? 8. Which methodologies are appropriate in answering our research questions, given a particular take on development? 9. What can we learn from other disciplines, e.g. geography, development studies, economics, political science, organisation studies, media and communication studies? 10. What critical approaches could be employed in ICT4D, in particular considering processes and consequences of globalization and the growth of market economies? We welcome conceptual discussions on the topic as well as theoretical analyses of empirical studies, including novel approaches. All submissions should strive to provide future guidance to the field. We do not only look for success stories; criticism of the field and of existing approaches may be just as insightful as guidance for future efforts. In addition, we are also interested in papers about how development theories influence ICT4D practice (for the view from practice section of the journal). Deadlines: Deadline for submissions of papers: November 13, 2015 Notification of initial acceptance: March 18, 2016 Deadline for revised papers: May 30th, 2016 Notification of final decisions: August 30th, 2016 Deadline for final versions: October 30th, 2016 Tentative Publication Date: February 2017 The revision and final decision deadline are subject to the length of time taken for reviewers to return their comments, satisfactory completion of revisions and number of revision cycles. The editors of this special issue reserve the right to send promising papers out for multiple rounds of reviews before making final decisions on papers.
