The Symposium will feature a number of keynotes illustrating advanced approaches, shorter presentations on recent research, a competitive PhD seminar and selected research and industrial demonstrations. This year the symposium will be held in Vienna, a city in the UNESCO World Heritage List. Call for Papers The IFIP International Symposium on Data-Driven Process Discovery and Analysis (SIMPDA 2014) offers a unique opportunity to present new approaches and research results to researchers and practitioners working in business process data modeling, representation and privacy-aware analysis. The symposium will bring together leading researchers, engineers and scientists from around the world. Full papers must not exceed 15 pages. Short papers are limited to at most 4 pages. All papers must be original contributions, not previously published or under review for publication elsewhere. All contributions must be written in English and must follow the LNCS Springer Verlag format. Templates can be downloaded from: http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html Accepted papers will be published in a pre-proceeding volume of CEUR workshop series. The authors of the accepted papers will be invited to submit extended articles to a post-symposium proceedings volume which will be published in the LNBIP series (Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing, http://www.springer.com/series/7911), scheduled for early 2015 (extended papers length will be between 7000 and 9000 words). Around 10-15 papers will be selected for publication after a second round of review. Topics of interest for submission include, but are not limited to: - Business Process modeling languages, notations and methods - Lightweight Process Model - Data-aware and data-centric approaches - Process Mining with Big Data - Variability and configuration of process models - Process simulation and static analyses - Process data query languages - Process data mining - Privacy-aware process data mining - Process metadata and semantic reasoning - Process patterns and standards - Foundations of business process models - Resource management in business process execution - Process tracing and monitoring - Process change management and evolution - Business process lifecycle - Case studies and experience reports - Social process discovery - Crowdsourced process definition and discovery IMPORTANT DATES Paper Submission: October 3rd 2015 EXTENDED TO October 10th 2015 Submission of PhD Presentations: October 3rd 2015 EXTENDED TO October 10th 2015 Notification of Acceptance: 07 November 2015 Submission of Camera Ready Papers: 21 November 2015 Second International Symposium on Process Data: 9-11 December 2015 Post-proceeding submissions: 30 March 2016 Workshop Format: In accordance to our historical tradition of proposing SIMPDA as a symposium, we propose an innovative format for this workshop: The number of sessions depend on the number of submissions but, considering the previous editions, we envisage to have four sessions, with 4-5 related papers assigned to each session. A special session (with a specific review process) will be dedicated to discuss research plan from PhD students. Papers are pre-circulated to the authors that will be expected to read all papers in advance but to avoid exceptional overhead, two are assigned to be prepared with particular care, making ready comments and suggestions. The bulk of the time during each session will be dedicated to open conversations about all of the papers in a given session, along with any linkages to the papers and discussions within an earlier session. The closing session (30 minutes), will include a panel about open challenges during which every participant will be asked to assemble their thoughts/project ideas/goals/etc that they got out of the workshop. Call for PhD Research Plans The SIMPDA PhD Seminar is a workshop for Ph.D. students from all over the world. The goal of the Seminar is to help students with their thesis and research plans by providing feedback and general advice on how to use their research results. Students interested in participating in the Seminar should submit an extended abstract describing their research. Submissions can relate to any aspect of Process Data: technical advances, usage and impact studies, policy analyses, social and institutional implications, theoretical contributions, interaction and design advances, innovative applications, and social implications. Research plans should be at most of 5 page long and should be organized following the following structure: Abstract: summarizes, in 5 line, the research aims and significance. Research Question: defines what will be accomplished by eliciting the relevant the research questions. Background: defines the background knowledge providing the 5 most relevant references (papers or books). Significance: explains the relevance of the general topic and of the specific contribution. Research design and methods: describes and motivates the method adopted focusing on: assumptions, solutions, data sources, validation of results, limitations of the approach. Research stage: describes what the student has done so far. SIMPDA PhD award A doctoral award will be given by the SIMPDA PhD Jury to the best research plan submitted. Student Scholarships An application for a limited number of scholarships aimed at students coming from emerging countries has been submitted to IFIP. In order to apply, please contact paolo.ceravolo(a)unimi.it Keynote Speakers Visual Analytics meets Process Mining: Challenges and Opportunities Theresia Gschwandtner and Silvia Miksch Vienna University of Technology Event data or traces of activities often exhibit unexpected behavior and complex relations. Thus, before and during the application of automated analysis methods, such as process mining algorithms, the analyst needs to investigate and understand the data at hand in order to decide which analysis methods might be appropriate. Visual Analytics integrates the outstanding capabilities of humans in terms of visual information exploration with the enormous processing power of computers to form a powerful knowledge discovery environment. The combination of visual data exploration with process mining algorithms makes complex information structures more comprehensible and facilitates new insights. In this talk, we will illustrate the various concepts of visual process mining, focusing on the challenges, but also the great opportunities for analyzing process data with Visual Analytics methods.

High profile events such as defections, espionage, and massive data breaches have led the public to question their own expectations of privacy. Together, these issues present significant challenges for individuals, businesses, government agencies, and policy makers. The purpose of this track is to provide a forum for theoretical developments, empirical research findings, case studies, methodologies, artifacts, and other high-quality manuscripts. Sponsored by SIGSec, we seek to address important questions arising from emerging developments in information security, such as: What is the influence of security education, training, and awareness (SETA) programs on policy compliance? How do system defenders share information to mitigate vulnerabilities and exploits? Does pervasive data collection deter privacy-conscious individuals? How do fear appeals influence decision making? What is the role of digital forensics in combating cyber security offenses? How do online social networks threaten the security and privacy of participants? What are the underlying economics or cultural implications of new security technologies? Do regulations and policies influence employee security behaviors and organizational security postures? Mini tracks/ suggested topics: • Security education, training and awareness (SETA) programs • Methodological issues within Cyber Security Research • Digital forensics • Investigations of individual behavior, both positive and negative • Detecting and mitigating insider threats • Security and privacy metrics • Security policy compliance research • Risk assessment and management • Trust in security and privacy enhancing systems • Compromises to information confidentiality, integrity, and availability Other titles and topics are welcome as long as they relate to the general topic area of information system security, assurance, and privacy. _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] Call for Workshops at Web Science 2016 Datum: Tue, 29 Sep 2015 10:47:28 +0200 Von: gadiraju <gadiraju(a)l3s.de> An: kdnet-members(a)iais.fraunhofer.de Hello, Here is the first call for workshop proposals at the 8th International ACM Web Science 2016 conference. ### Apologies for Cross-Posting ### *************************** Call for Workshop Proposals ********************** In a world increasingly connected by the Web, the divide between online and offline is blurrier than ever. The Web serves as global newspaper, television station, marketplace, agora, or museum. As a great deal of social interaction moves online, the Internet promises researchers a portal into the social life of humanity. Furthermore, the Internet promises not only insight into, but also a full transformation of social life. Despite the prevalent impression of Internet saturation that may prevail in many developed societies, the majority of humans are still offline. New Internet users experience the Web through radically different and diverse mobile interfaces. Although many digital prophets promised a world where place and class would be irrelevant, the Internet has not freed us from geography or social inequality: the “digital divide” is alive and well, with socially-disadvantaged people often having dismal access to the Internet. It is thus important for scholars of the Internet to take a reasoned, critical view of the Web. We call for discussion around the ways in which the Web as a platform, as well as Web Science, can help address global challenges. To this end we invite workshop proposals for the 2016 edition of the ACM WebSci conference, on topics such as, but not limited to: -The Web and Geography -The Mobile Revolution and Web Science -Web Science and Social Good -Digital Inequalities on the Web -The Internet in recent Middle-Eastern History -Crime on the Web and Security We encourage proposals on the above topics, and likewise welcome submissions on already-established areas of focus for ACM WebSci such as: -Digital Humanities -Web Architecture and Organization -Collective Intelligence -Social Network Analysis -Data Ethics, Privacy and Security -Statistics on the Web Workshops can have a mixture of panel presentations and invited speakers, but presentations should reflect the diversity of approaches that characterise the multidisciplinary nature of Web Science. ### Workshop submission ### Workshop proposals should contain the following information: -Title summarising the tutorial goals or workshop theme. -Name and affiliations of the organizers. -Details of the organising/program committee, including names and institutional affiliations and -whether they have accepted to participate. -Max two-page description about the relevance, motivation and goals of the workshop, as well as pointers to past editions, if any. -Schedule of sessions, panels, and talks, including if it is a half- or full-day workshop. -Names of potential invited speakers with an indication of whether they have accepted the preliminary invitation. -Selection criteria for papers to be presented if the workshop invites submissions. It is the prerogative of organisers to decide whether to have an open call for participants and papers, or arrange panels by invitation only. Proposals should include as many details as possible about sessions, speakers, and talks: they will be evaluated by their coherence and ability to address the stated goals. It is the responsibility of the organisers to advertise their event, and constitute a program committee to review and select papers and manage the review process if they wish to include paper presentations in their workshop. If successful, we advise proposals to have a website describing the event (within three weeks of acceptance). Workshop websites will be linked to from the main conference site. Proposals should be submitted in pdf format via email to websci16ws(a)googlegroups.com. ### Publication of Workshop Submissions ### Submissions to the proposed workshops may be included in the WebSci proceedings, or workshop organizers may choose to not publish their submissions. If the workshop proceedings are to be included in the conference proceedings then the camera-ready deadline (see below) must be adhered too. ### Workshop proposal review ### The Web Science programme chairs will review each submission and select those with the highest scores on originality, timeliness and relevance of the proposed topic, its interdisciplinarity, rigour of the review process, coherence with the conference aims, and potential to attract a large audience. ### Workshop proposal deadlines ### December 17, 2015 - Workshop proposal submissions December 24, 2015 - Notification of workshop acceptance January 14, 2016 - Workshop website due February-March 2016 - Workshop paper submission and notification deadlines (if applicable, details left to workshop organizers) April 17, 2016 - Camera-ready workshop papers due (if inclusion in conference proceedings is desired) May 22, 2016 - Workshop date ### Workshop Chairs ### Ingmar Weber, QCRI, Qatar | Twitter : @ingmarweber Bogdan State, Facebook & Stanford, USA | Twitter : @bogdanstate *************************************************************************************************** Best Regards, Ujwal Gadiraju L3S Research Center Leibniz Universität Hannover -- Mailing-Liste: wi(a)lists.kit.edu Administrator: wi-request(a)lists.kit.edu Konfiguration: https://www.lists.kit.edu/wws/info/wi
