-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] Inf. Sys. Special issue on Integrating Process-oriented and Event-based Systems (4th Jan 2017) Datum: Fri, 9 Dec 2016 09:42:45 +0100 Von: Matthias Weidlich <matthias.weidlich(a)hu-berlin.de> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org #################################################################### Extended submission deadline: 4th January, 2017 #################################################################### Special Issue in Elsevier's Information Systems on *Integrating Process-oriented and Event-based Systems* #################################################################### Process-oriented information systems (POIS) control operations by coordinating the execution of elementary activities. Recently, there has been a significant uptake of POIS in transportation, logistics, and medical infrastructures – domains that impose new challenges in terms of system reactivity and adaptability. Here, trends such as sensing of data and advancing system integration represent opportunities to strengthen the event- perspective in process-oriented systems in order to achieve more flexible and comprehensive process control. Event-based systems (EBS), in turn, have been put forward to integrate heterogeneous systems in a flexible and scalable manner by separating communication from application logic. EBS have found their way into many applications where event generation is relatively deterministic and follows structured behaviour, i.e., events are created by processes. Exploiting the process-perspective promises to lead to advancements in the design, analysis, and optimisation of event-based systems. The increasing overlap of application scenarios that involve concepts and techniques of process-oriented as well as event-based systems, however, is only marginally supported by exchange and convergence of the related research fields. Despite the manifold opportunities for cross-fertilisation as highlighted by a recent Dagstuhl Seminar (http://www.dagstuhl.de/16341/), only a small amount of research has been conducted on how process-oriented systems and event- based systems can be integrated. Given this background, this special issue invites submissions focusing on various aspects of the interplay of process-oriented and event-based systems. We welcome both theoretical contributions as well as papers describing interesting applications. Topics include, but are not limited to: - Process-driven distribution of event processing - Process-driven handling of event data quality issues - Process-driven definition of complex events - Process-driven optimisation of event processing - Event semantics in processes - Process-event correlation - Events for flexible and adaptive process management - Events in inter-process correlation - Event-driven choreographies - Applications of event-driven process management - Benchmarks and evaluation of event-driven process management Important Dates - Submission: 4th January, 2017 - First Round Notification: 1st April, 2017 - First Round Revisions: 1st June, 2017 - Second Round Notification: 1st August, 2017 - Final Submission: 1st October, 2017 - Publication: 1st December, 2017 Guest Editors - David Eyers, University of Otago, New Zealand - Avigdor Gal, Technion - Israel Institute of Technology, Israel - Hans-Arno Jacobsen, Technische Universität München, Germany - Matthias Weidlich, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, Germany Submission Please follow the general submission guidelines of Information Systems: http://www.elsevier.com/locate/infosys _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

Fwd: [AISWorld] ECSCW 2017 Call for Exploratory Papers
by Gustaf Neumann 07 Dec '16

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] ECSCW 2017 Call for Exploratory Papers Datum: Wed, 7 Dec 2016 11:28:30 +0000 Von: Gabriela Avram <gabriela.avram(a)gmail.com> An: AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org Apologies for cross-posting! CSCW focuses on enhancing our understanding of the practices of cooperative work and on exploring and designing CSCW systems. The ECSCW conference is an important venue for defining and further developing the agenda for CSCW research. The conference has a longstanding interest in empirical, conceptual and theoretical contributions and has a tradition of inclusiveness. ECSCW addresses themes which include but are not limited to: - Conceptualising practice in work and other activities, and the relationship between understanding practice and the design of computer artifacts: how can we understand work (the “W”)? - Cooperation and its characteristics (e.g., describing the particulars of articulation work and coordination mechanisms in a given setting): how can we understand cooperative work (the “CW”)? - Methods for investigating human practices: the nature of ethnography and the role of other innovative methods in CSCW. - Digital and other material artefacts in cooperative settings: how can we support cooperative work in increasingly complex, networked settings (the “CS”)? The ECSCW conferences are single-track conferences that contribute to developing an interdisciplinary ECSCW community. The conference format facilitates critical discussion across disciplinary and national borders in the field. An overview of earlier ECSCW conferences (and proceedings) is available from http://www.ecscw.org/ <http://www.ecscw.org/> Submission is now open for *Exploratory Papers.* - The goal of this new type of submission is to attract smaller, focused studies, works-in-progress, critical literature reviews, early results, and/or provocative ideas that are not yet ready for a journal submission, but could benefit from presentation and discussion within the ECSCW community. While the length of exploratory papers is flexible, we expect that papers will be no longer than 6,000 words (without references). With exploratory papers, we aim at having lively sessions that will contribute to shaping the future of practice-focused CSCW research. Exploratory paper submissions will be reviewed by the ECSCW PC in one round of evaluation (accepted or rejected). Accepted exploratory papers will be published in the ECSCW/EUSSET Digital Library as an edited collection with ISBN and DOIs (more information soon). Please follow the exploratory papers template. The template can be downloaded as RTF <https://www.dropbox.com/s/watyt6fit26hwtu/ECSCW%202017%20exploratory%20pape…> or MSWord <https://www.dropbox.com/s/m2391028w7zz0tz/ECSCW%202017_EP%20template.doc?dl…> . We adopt a single-blind review policy, therefore exploratory papers should not be anonymised. Authors of exploratory papers will retain the copyright and will then be able to reuse their work in teaching, future publications, and other scholarly and professional activities, and to deposit their work in a university repository. Exploratory Papers can be submitted via EasyChair at this link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ecscw2017 <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ecscw2017> *Important dates*: - Friday 27th January 2017: Submission deadline (5:00pm PDT) - Wednesday 29th March 2017: Notifications due to authors. Exploratory papers are either accepted or rejected. Small additional edits may be requested for accepted exploratory papers before publication - Friday 21st April 2017: Camera ready to be submitted for publication in the ECSCW/EUSSET digital library *August 28 – September 01 2017:* Conference in Sheffield We are looking forward to receiving your submissions! On behalf of ECSCW 2017, Myriam Lewkowicz and Aleksandra Sarcevic, Exploratory Papers Co-Chairs Luigina Ciolfi and David Randall, Conference Co-Chairs Gabriela Avram, Social Media and Publicity Chair _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org
