They are the central IT-System to implement the core business processes and manage the critical data assets of enterprises. In recent years, several technological advances such Advanced Analytics, Cloud-Computing, Mobile and Social-Computing created potentials to extend the proven capabilities of ERP systems. Advanced Analytics methods and capabilities such as prescriptive and predictive analytics and deep learning increase the capability of iERP Systems to gain knowledge about customers and products. Hereby they enable enterprises to make decisions quicker and more precise. Cloud-Computing is used by iERP Systems in two ways. First, cloud-computing enables them to provide their functions in a scalable and efficiently way. Second, cloud-computing is an important platform to integrate customers, suppliers, and mobile employees. Mobile technologies extend the reach of iERP Systems significantly. They enable the integration of mobile customers, products and employees. Social computing captures the actions, opinions, etc. of customers outside transactions and makes them accessible for analysis.

The conference also invites a small number of high quality tutorials and nationally recognized keynote speakers. The conference has grown out of two related meetings: SBP and BRiMS, which were co-located in previous years. Social computing harnesses the power of computational methods to study social behavior, such as during team collaboration. Cultural behavioral modeling refers to representing behavior and culture in the abstract, and is a convenient and powerful way to conduct virtual experiments and scenario analysis. Both social computing and cultural behavioral modeling are techniques designed to achieve a better understanding of complex behaviors, patterns, and associated outcomes of interest. Moreover, these approaches are inherently interdisciplinary; subsystems and system components exist at multiple levels of analysis (i.e., “cells to societies”) and across multiple disciplines, from engineering and the computational sciences to the social and health sciences. The SBP-BRiMS conference invites modeling and simulation papers from academics, research scientists, technical communities and defense researchers across traditional disciplines to share ideas, discuss research results, identify capability gaps, highlight promising technologies, and showcase the state-of-the-art in applications in the areas of cultural behavioral modeling, prediction, and social computing. Please see the SBP-BRiMS17 website for more details. Keynotes and tutorials delivered in the previous SBP and BRiMS meetings are available through the websites http://sbp-brims.org and http://cc.ist.psu.edu/BRIMS2015/ .

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] CFP Journal Symbolic Computation Special Issue on Dynamic Geometry and Automated Reasoning Datum: Fri, 24 Feb 2017 13:19:05 +0100 Von: Prof. Tomas Recio <tomas.recio(a)unican.es> An: Kovács Zoltán <zoltan(a)geogebra.org>, Francisco Botana <fbotana(a)uvigo.es> Please help us disseminating this announcement. Sorry for duplicates. ===================== *** CALL FOR PAPERS *** Special Issue on Dynamic Geometry and Automated Reasoning https://sites.google.com/site/kovzol/jsc-si-dg-ar Journal of Symbolic Computation* https://www.journals. elsevier.com/journal-of-symbolic-computation GUEST EDITORS: Francisco Botana, University of Vigo, Spain Zoltán Kovács, The Private University College of Education of the Diocese of Linz, Austria Tomas Recio, University of Cantabria, Spain IMPORTANT DATES: - submission deadline: September 1, 2017 - notification of acceptance / rejection: February 2, 2018 - final versions: March 30, 2018 SCOPE: Since the last half century, automated deduction in elementary geometry has become one of the most successful achievements in the field of automated reasoning. Along these decades various methods and techniques have been studied and developed for automated proving and discovering of elementary geometry statements. On the other hand, dynamic geometry software systems have emerged, such as Cabri Geometry, C.a.R., Cinderella, DrGeo, GeoGebra, The Geometer's Sketchpad, Geometry Expert, Geometry Expressions or Kig with an ever-increasing presence in mathematics education. Some of them possess a large number of users (over thirty million) all around the world. The merging of these two tools (automatic proving and dynamic geometry) is, thus, a very natural, challenging and promising issue, currently involving logic, symbolic computation, software development, algebraic geometry and mathematics education experts all from over the world. The Special Issue intends to be an opportunity for - presenting the current state of the art concerning the development of automatic proving features on dynamic geometry systems, - discussing the current and potential applications of such features in different contexts, such as CAGD or mathematics education. TOPICS (not restricted to): - Algorithmic aspects: formal, logic and algebraic geometry approaches, constraint solving, invariant and coordinate-free methods, real and complex geometry issues, probabilistic, synthetic approaches, techniques from discrete mathematics, combinatorics, and numerics. - Software aspects: Implementation of automated proving methods in dynamic geometry programs, design of packages and systems, data representation. Parallel and distributed computing, considerations for modern hardware and new devices. User-interface issues, use with systems for digital libraries, courseware, ... - Application aspects: applications to mechanics, geometric modeling, CAGD/CAD, computer vision, robotics and education. Papers must not duplicate work already published or submitted for publication elsewhere. All the papers will be refereed according to the JSC standards. Papers should follow the guidelines for JSC submissions (see https://www.elsevier.com/journals/journal-of-symbolic-computation/0747-7171…), and should be submitted through Easychair (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=jscdgarsi2018). The introduction of the paper must explicitly address the following questions in succinct and informal manner: - What is the problem? - Why is the problem important? - What has been done so far on the problem? - What is the main contribution of the paper on the problem? - Why is the contribution original? (see below for clarification) - Why is the contribution non-trivial? Make the paper complete (since there is no page limit): - All the related works and issues must be completely and carefully discussed. - All the previous relevant JSC papers must be properly cited and discussed. - All the theorems must be rigorously proved (no sketch allowed). - All the important definitions/theorems/algorithms must be illustrated by well-chosen examples. * An international journal, the Journal of Symbolic Computation, founded by Bruno Buchberger in 1985, is directed to mathematicians and computer scientists who have a particular interest in symbolic computation. Automated theorem proving is one of the research areas of interest highlighted in the Journal’s description. The Journal of Symbolic Computation has a 1.030 Impact Factor, according to the last Thompson Reuters Journal Citation Reports (2016). _______________________________________________ computational.science mailing list computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org https://lists.iccsa.org/mailman/listinfo/computational.science Hosted by Sardina Systems: Hyper-Efficient OpenStack Cloud https://www.sardinasystems.com

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] CfW: SASO 2017 - IEEE International Conference on Self-Adaptive and Self-Organizing Systems, September 18-22, Tucson, Arizona Datum: Fri, 24 Feb 2017 14:47:12 +0100 Von: Markus Esch via computational.science <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> Antwort an: Markus Esch <newsletter(a)saso-conference.org> An: computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org ==== Call for Workshops ==== The FAS* 2017 Steering Committee invites proposals for the Workshop Program to be held along with the technical conferences SASO 2017 and ICCAC 2017. FAS*W workshops will provide a meeting for presenting novel ideas in a less formal and possibly more focused way than the conferences themselves. Their aim is to stimulate and facilitate active exchange, interaction, and comparison of approaches, methods, and ideas related to specific topics, both theoretical and applied, in the general area of Self-Adaptive and Self-Organizing Systems as well as Cloud and Autonomic Computing. To motivate the discussion and participation of all the workshop attendants, we encourage organizers to get away of the typical "mini-conference" format of a workshop, and include more discussion sessions, panels, etc. Members from all areas of the SASO and ICCAC communities are invited to submit workshop proposals for review. Workshops on global challenges, applications or on new and emerging topics are particularly encouraged. Workshops can vary in length, but most will be one full day in duration. Optionally, if desired by the organizers, workshop proceedings can be published through IEEE. Attendance of workshops will be included in the registration fee for the main SASO/ICCAC conference. ==== Important Dates ==== Workshop proposal submission deadline: April 7, 2017* Workshop acceptance notification: April 14, 2017* CfP submission deadline: April 21, 2017 Workshop paper submission deadline: July 7, 2017 Workshop paper acceptance notification: July 21, 2017 Early registration deadline: TBD Camera-ready papers due: July 26, 2017 Workshop notes submission to workshop chairs: July 28, 2017 Workshops dates: September 18 & 22, 2017 * Please submit your workshop proposals as soon as possible (i.e. before April 7)! We will try to decide earlier on workshop acceptance in order to give the organizers more time to solicit papers. ==== FAS*W 2017 Workshops - Requirements for Submission ==== Proposals for workshops should be separated in two parts. The first part should be organized as preliminary call for papers or call for participation, depending on the intended format of the workshop, with a maximum of two pages and contain the following information: PART 1: - Title of the workshop. - A brief technical description of the workshop, specifying the workshop goals, the technical issues that it will address, and the relevance of the workshop to the main conferences. Please specify, which of the two main conferences the workshop assigned to (if any)! - Description of paper review process (if any) and acceptance standards in order to keep the workshop high in quality. Note that papers must be in the same format as the conference proceedings and may not be more than 6 pages in length. - The names, affiliations, postal addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses of the proposed workshop organizing committee. This committee should consist of three or four people knowledgeable about the technical issues to be addressed. The organizing committee should include individuals from multiple institutions. - The primary email address for contacting the organizing committee. - Expected duration of the workshop (half or full day). - A brief description of the workshop format. - List of potential program committee members (if applicable), including their title and affiliations. - List of potential invited speakers, panelists, or disputants (if applicable). PART 2: The second part with a maximum of three pages should contain additional information not suitable for a Call for Papers, including: - A discussion of why and to whom the workshop is of interest. - A list of related workshops held within the last three years, if any, and their relation to the proposed workshop. - Information about previous offerings of the proposed workshop: when and where it has been offered in the past, organizers names and affiliations, number of submissions, acceptances and registered attendees. - An indication of the envisaged acceptance rate (if applicable). - A description of the qualifications of the individual committee members with respect to organizing a SASO or ICCAC workshop, including a list of workshops previously arranged by any members of the proposed organizing committee, if any. - A list of places (distribution lists, web sites, journals, etc.) where the workshop is planned to be advertised. - All proposals should be submitted in plain ASCII text or PDF format by electronic mail to the FAS*W 2017 Workshop Chairs, via Christopher Frantz, as described below. ==== Selection Criteria ==== The selection of the workshops to be included in the final FAS* 2017 Workshop program will be based upon multiple factors, including: - the scientific/technical interest of the topics, - the quality of the proposal, - complementarity with the conference topics, - balance and distinctness of workshop topics, and - the capacity of the conference workshop program. Note that authors of proposals addressing similar and/or overlapping content areas and/or audiences may be requested to merge their proposals. ==== Responsibilities of FAS* 2017 Workshop Chairs ==== For all accepted proposals, FAS* 2017 will be responsible for: - Providing publicity for the workshop series as a whole. - Providing logistical support and a meeting place for the workshops. - Together with the organizers, determining the workshop date and time. - Liaising and coordinating between the workshop chairs and the finance chair, publicity chair, registration chair, and web chair for FAS*. - Arranging for publication of proceedings. ==== Responsibilities of Workshop Organizers ==== Workshop organizers will be responsible for the following: - Setting up a web site for the workshop. - Advertising the workshop (and the main FAS* conference), and issuing a call for papers and a call for participation. - Collecting and evaluating submissions, notifying authors of acceptance or rejection on a timely basis, and ensuring a transparent and fair selection process. All workshop organizers commit themselves to adopt the deadlines set by the committee. - Making the pdf of the whole workshop notes available to the workshop chair, as well as a list of audio-visual requirements and any special room requirements. - Writing a 1-page organizers? introduction for the workshop proceedings. Ensuring that the workshop organizers and the participants register for the workshop and/or the main conference (at least one author must register for the paper to appear in the proceedings). - FAS* reserves the right to cancel any workshop if the above responsibilities are not fulfilled, or if too few attendees register for the workshop to support its running costs. ==== Submissions and Inquiries ==== Please send proposals (as a PDF document) and inquiries to: Christopher Frantz (cf(a)christopherfrantz.org) or Jeremy Pitt (j.pitt(a)imperial.ac.uk) https://saso2017.telecom-paristech.fr/committees.html _______________________________________________ computational.science mailing list computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org https://lists.iccsa.org/mailman/listinfo/computational.science Hosted by Sardina Systems: Hyper-Efficient OpenStack Cloud https://www.sardinasystems.com
