-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [fai-saso] Extended Deadline: SASO 2017 - IEEE International Conference on Self-Adaptive and Self-Organizing Systems, September 18-22, Tucson, Arizona Datum: Thu, 27 Apr 2017 10:32:48 +0200 Von: Markus Esch <newsletter(a)saso-conference.org> An: fai-saso(a)listserv.uni-augsburg.de ************************************************************************* CALL FOR PAPERS The Eleventh IEEE International Conference on Self-Adaptive and Self-Organizing Systems (SASO 2017) EXTENDED DEADLINES: Extended abstract submission: May 8, 2017 Extended paper submission: May 24, 2017 University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ; 18-22 September 2017 https://saso2017.telecom-paristech.fr/ ************************************************************************* Part of FAS* - Foundation and Applications of Self-* Computing Conferences Collocated with: The International Conference on Cloud and Autonomic Computing (ICCAC 2017) ------------------- Aims and Scope ------------------- The aim of the Self-Adaptive and Self-Organizing Systems conference series (SASO) is to provide a forum for the presentation and discussion of research on the foundations of engineered systems that self-adapt and self-organize. The complexity of current and emerging networks, software, and services can be characterized by issues such as scale, heterogeneity, openness, and dynamics in the environment. This has led the software engineering, distributed systems, and management communities to look for inspiration in diverse fields (e.g., complex systems, control theory, artificial intelligence, chemistry, psychology, sociology, and biology) to find new ways of designing and managing such computing systems in a principled way. In this endeavor, self-organization and self-adaptation have emerged as two promising interrelated approaches. They form the basis for many other so-called self-* properties, such as self-configuration, self-healing, or self-optimization. SASO aims to be an interdisciplinary meeting, where contributions from participants with different backgrounds leads to the fostering of a cross-pollination of ideas, and where innovative theories, frameworks, methodologies, tools, and applications can emerge. The eleventh edition of the SASO conference embraces this inter-disciplinary nature, and welcomes novel contributions to both the foundational and application-focused dimensions of self-adaptive and self-organizing systems research. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Systems theory: nature-inspired and socially-inspired paradigms and heuristics; inter-operation of self-* mechanisms; theoretical frameworks and models; control theory; - System properties: robustness; resilience; stability; anti-fragility; diversity; self-reference and reflection; emergent behavior; computational awareness and self-awareness; - Systems engineering: reusable mechanisms and algorithms; design patterns; architectures; methodologies; software and middleware development frameworks and methods; platforms and toolkits; multi-agent systems; - Theory and practice of organization: self-governance, change management, electronic institutions, distributed consensus, commons, knowledge management, and the general use of rules, policies, etc. in self-* systems - Theory and practice of adaptation: mechanisms for adaptation, including evolution, logic, learning; adaptability, plasticity, flexibility - Socio-technical systems: human and social factors; visualization; crowdsourcing and collective awareness; humans-in-the-loop; ethics and humanities in self-* systems; - Data-driven approaches: data mining; machine learning; data science and other statistical techniques to analyze, understand, and manage behavior of complex systems; - Self-adaptive and self-organizing hardware: self-* materials; self-construction; reconfigurable hardware; - Education: experience reports; curricula; innovative course concepts; methodological aspects of self-* systems education; Applications and experiences with self-* systems in any of the following domains are of particular interest: + Smart systems: smart grids, smart cities, smart environments, smart homes, etc. + Industrial automation: embedded self-* systems, adaptive industrial plants, Industry 4.0, cyber physical systems + Transportation: autonomous vehicles, traffic optimization + Autonomous systems: aerial vehicles, undersea vehicles, autonomous robotics + Internet of Things: self-* for network management, self-* applied to cyber security We are looking for contributions that present new fundamental understanding of self-adaptive and self-organizing systems and how they can be engineered and used, including: novel theoretical or experimental results, novel design patterns, mechanisms, system architectures, frameworks, tools, and practical experiences in building or deploying systems and applications. Contributions contrasting different approaches for engineering a given family of systems, or demonstrating the applicability of a certain approach for different systems, are equally encouraged. Likewise, papers describing substantial innovation or insights in the use and communication of self-* systems in the classroom are welcome. Where relevant and appropriate, accepted papers will also be encouraged to participate in the Demo or Poster Sessions. -------------------- Important Dates -------------------- Abstract submission: May 8, 2017 Paper submission: May 24, 2017 Notification: June 30, 2017 Camera ready copy due: July 12, 2017 Conference: September 18-22, 2017 ---------------------------- Submission Instructions ---------------------------- Submissions can be up to 10 pages, formatted according to the standard IEEE Computer Society Press proceedings style guide, and submitted electronically in PDF format. Please submit your papers using the SASO 2017 conference management system https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=saso2017. The proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press, and made available as a part of the IEEE Digital Library. Note that a separate Call for Poster and Demo Submissions will also be issued. As per the standard IEEE policies, all submissions should be original, i.e., they must not have been previously published in any conference proceedings, book, or journal and must not currently be under review for another archival conference. We also highlight the IEEE policies regarding plagiarism and self-plagiarism (http://www.ieee.org/publications_standards/publications/rights/ID_Plagiaris…). --------------------- Review Criteria --------------------- Papers should present novel ideas in the cross-disciplinary research context described in this call, motivated by problems from current practice or applied research. Both theoretical and empirical contributions should be highlighted, substantiated by formal analysis, simulation, experimental evaluations, or comparative studies, etc. Appropriate references must be made to related work. Because SASO is a cross-disciplinary conference, we encourage papers to be intelligible and relevant to researchers who are not members of the same specialized sub-field. Authors are also encouraged to submit papers describing applications. Application papers should provide an indication of the real-world relevance of the problem that is solved, including a description of the domain, and an evaluation of performance, usability, or comparison to alternative approaches. Experience papers are also welcome, especially if they highlight insights into any aspect of design, implementation or management of self-* systems that would be of benefit to practitioners and the SASO community. All submissions will be rigorously peer reviewed and evaluated based on the quality of their technical contribution, originality, soundness, significance, presentation, understanding of the state of the art, and overall quality. ------------------------------- Conference General Chair ------------------------------- Ada Diaconescu Telecom Paris-Tech, Paris, FR -------------------- Program Chairs -------------------- Peter Lewis, Aston University, Birmingham, UK Sam Malek, University of California, Irvine, USA Hella Seebach, Augsburg University, Augsburg, DE _______________________________________________ fai-saso mailing list fai-saso(a)listserv.uni-augsburg.de https://mailman.rz.uni-augsburg.de/mailman/listinfo/fai-saso

Fwd: [AISWorld] Deadline approaching ALL FOR PAPERS Journal of Information Technology & Tourism (JITT) Special Issue on Recommender Systems in Tourism
by Gustaf Neumann 27 Apr '17

27 Apr '17

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] Deadline approaching ALL FOR PAPERS Journal of Information Technology & Tourism (JITT) Special Issue on Recommender Systems in Tourism Datum: Thu, 27 Apr 2017 06:46:45 +0300 Von: Tsvi Kuflik <tsvikak(a)is.haifa.ac.il> An: AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org CALL FOR PAPERS Journal of Information Technology & Tourism (JITT) Special Issue on Recommender Systems in Tourism Guest editors: Julia Neidhardt, Daniel Fesenmaier, Tsvi Kuflik, and Wolfgang Wörndl Background The focus of this special issue is on the specific challenges for recommender systems in tourism. In particular, there are considerably more complicated scenarios than finding the best product for a user. Planning a vacation usually involves searching for a reasonably large set of products that are interconnected (e.g. means of transportation, lodging, attractions etc.), with a rather limited availability, and where contextual aspects may have a major impact (spatiotemporal context, social context, environmental context). In addition and most importantly, products are emotionally “loaded” and therefore decision taking is not based only on rational and objective criteria. As such, providing the right information to visitors of a tourism site at the right time about the site itself and various services nearby is challenging. Additionally and in contrast to many other domains, information providers are normally SMEs and do not have full information about available opportunities. Finally, there is no single, standard format to house this information and with this diversity, building effective recommendation systems within the tourism domain is extremely challenging. The rapid development of information and communication technologies (ICT) in general and the Web in particular has transformed the tourism domain whereby travellers no longer rely on travel agents/agencies. Indeed, recent studies indicate that they are now active in searching for information and composing their vacation packages according to their specific preferences. When onsite, they search for freely available information about the site itself rather than renting a visitor guide that may be available, but considered to be expensive and sometimes outdated. However, like in many other cases, the blessing of the web comes with a curse – the curse of information overload. Recommender systems have been suggested as a practical tool for overcoming this information overload. Topics of specific interest Important aspects and topics to be discussed evolve around (but are not limited to): ● Specific applications and case studies (evaluation) ● Specific methods and techniques in the domain ● Novel ICT and its impact on travel and tourism ● Integrating data from various sources, i.e., catalogues, Linked Open Data, and usage logs ● Context and mobility ● Cold-Start problem ● Preference elicitation ● Emotions and recommenders ● Group recommenders / Decision making ● Interaction concepts with personal and group (on-site public or desktop) displays ● Information needs, information access (incl. visualization) and search patterns ● Collaboration, communication and sharing aspects in the tourist information consumption ● Personalized explanations and feedback of recommendation systems ● Digital storytelling, narratives, smart summaries and recommendation explanations Submission - Papers are required no later than April 30th, 2017. - Notification of outcome will be provided by June 15th, 2017. - Revised papers should be submitted by August 1st, 2017. Please submit manuscripts through the Springer online system (if you are a new author to the system you will be required to create a system login). https://www.editorialmanager.com/jitt/ Submission of a manuscript implies: that the work described has not been published before; that it is not under consideration for publication anywhere else; that its publication has been approved by all co-authors, if any, as well as by the responsible authorities – tacitly or explicitly – at the institute where the work has been carried out. The publisher will not be held legally responsible should there be any claims for compensation. The journal imposes no hard limits on the paper length as long as what authors write is important. Submissions that exceed 40 pages in journal format (including illustrations and references) should, however, be accompanied by a short justification as to why a briefer discussion of their research results.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] HotPETs 2017 Call for Talks Datum: Tue, 25 Apr 2017 17:51:20 +0200 (CEST) Von: Wouter Lueks <wouter.lueks(a)imdea.org> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org [Apologies to those who receive multiple copies of this CfT] Call for Talks: HotPETs 2017 ============================ 10th Workshop on Hot Topics in Privacy Enhancing Technologies (HotPETs 2017) Held in conjunction with the 17th Privacy Enhancing Technologies Symposium July 21, 2017 General information: https://petsymposium.org/2017/hotpets.php The Workshop on Hot Topics in Privacy Enhancing Technologies (HotPETs) fosters new ideas and spirited debates on privacy. We are calling for engaging and informative 10-15 minute talks on hot topics in privacy enhancing technologies (PETs), with each talk to be followed by a 5-10 minute question period. Short, written talk proposals should be sent by May 8th, 2017, to hotpets17(a)petsymposium.org (details below). The nature of HotPETs' discussion-oriented format is especially suited to works in progress and new ideas that have not yet been fully formed. Deadlines: ========== Submission Deadline: May 8th Submission Notification: May 15th Send submissions or questions to hotpets17(a)petsymposium.org. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: =================================================== Anonymous communications and publishing systems Censorship resistance Challenges in deploying PETs Cryptographic protocols with application to privacy Economics of PETs Genetic privacy Human computer interaction with PETs Impact of PETs in the wild Interdisciplinary privacy Legal issues surrounding PETs Location privacy Online surveillance Privacy and identity management Privacy-enhanced access control and authentication Privacy in databases Privacy in social networks Public policy regulating the use and development of PETs Usability of PETs User studies of PETs Who should submit: ================== We invite submissions from activists, artists, developers, journalists, lawyers, public servants, researchers, scholars, and any others who can give a compelling, novel talk about privacy and privacy-enhancing technologies. PETS and HotPETS attract world-renowned experts on the research, development, and practice of PETs. If you are excited to give a talk to such a group, and you think they would be excited to hear it, then you should submit. Some example talks: * Researcher describing recent research results or a work in progress, especially on a novel or newly-important topic in privacy or security * Experiences from an activist working with PETs "on the ground" * Software developer describing a recent experience with a privacy-enhancing tool they built * Government official discussing interactions between technology and the development of privacy or security-related policy What to submit: =============== We invite two-page talk proposals that give an overview of what you intend to present, including any results or conclusions you intend to share. HotPETs strives for engaging talks and focused discussions, and so proposals should display exciting ideas that can be communicated clearly and with brevity. We encourage you to link to additional sources of your work (e.g., software, videos, websites, papers) within your proposal. The HotPETs chairs will strive to incorporate these additional sources into the review process, although full review of material beyond what is contained in the submission text is not guaranteed. A proposal must include a title and a list of authors responsible for the work to be presented (one of whom must give the talk). It must be no more than two pages including references. It must be submitted as a Word or PDF document, and we recommend that proposals use either the Word template or the LaTeX template. For detailed information on using these templates, see the ACM SIG Proceedings templates. HotPETs has no official proceedings, but accepted submissions will be made available on the HotPETs website (authors may revise them after acceptance). Authors may have the option to include talk-related resources, such as slides or software, on the HotPETs website. With speaker consent, recordings of HotPETs talks may be made during the workshop and put online. Submission Review: ================== The HotPETs chairs will review the submissions and make the final decisions on acceptance. The chairs may request external input or advice to make fully informed decisions. The chairs will seek to accept submissions that have the potential to create an engaging workshop for speakers and attendees. Accepted submissions may include those that provoke interesting discussion, provide unique insight or value to the PETs community, share new and emerging PETs-related research, and have the potential to expand engagement between the PETs community and PETs users. The chairs seek submissions that are complete and concise. They should provide a full overview of the proposed talk, including (if available) any conclusions or findings that are to be presented. HotPETs Best Talk Award: ======================== A goal of HotPETs is to present talks that are informative, engaging, and even entertaining. To recognize such talks, each year HotPETs concludes with a vote by the audience for its favorite talk. The talk with the most votes wins the Best Talk Award! HotPETs chairs: =============== Sadia Afroz (ICSI/UC Berkeley) Moritz Bartl (Renewable Freedom Foundation) Tariq Elahi (KU Leuven) _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org
