-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] AMCIS 2018: Call for social inclusion minitrack proposals - deadline Oct 18 Datum: Fri, 29 Sep 2017 15:27:12 +0000 Von: Windeler, Jaime (windeljb) <windeljb(a)ucmail.uc.edu> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> SIG-Social Inclusion is sponsoring a track at AMICS 2018 in New Orleans. We invite submissions for mini-track proposals, due October 18. The proposal involves a 150- word description of the minitrack, plus chair contact information. It's quick and painless! ---DESCRIPTION--- The Social Inclusion track welcomes relevant theoretical, empirical, and intervention research, in either completed research or emergent research format, that relates to the mission of SIG Social Inclusion (SIGSI). The purpose of SIGSI is to promote research, pedagogy, and outreach on all aspects of social inclusion in the field of Information Systems (IS). The goal of such efforts is to stimulate greater diversity of thought and personnel in AIS and the IS field overall, and participation of all AIS members in a more socially-aware and inclusive discipline. Social inclusion research investigates the part IT plays in enabling or inhibiting individuals and social groups' participation in the social structures in which they exist and the needs of under-represented producers or consumers of information systems and technology within the IT field. Topics include: the underrepresentation of gender minorities, race, ethnicities, neurodiversity, and abilities in the IS field, intersectionality of identities (such as ethnicity, gender and socio-economic class), socioeconomic divisions that impact access to or use of technology, designing for the differently-abled, the digital divide, underserved groups in the information society, and a range of topics related to human diversity, and the "haves" and "have nots" in the information society. Possible minitrack topics could include, but are not limited to: - Gender issues in the information systems discipline - Inclusion of differently-abled in the information economy - Analysis of the digital divide - Diversity and inclusion in distributed work - Multicultural inclusion and exclusion - Managing diversity and inclusion in the IT workforce - Methodological challenges in studying diversity and inclusion Selected completed papers may be invited to submit to The Data Base for Advances in Information Systems for full review. ---SUBMISSION--- Minitrack proposals should be submitted through the conference submission system at: https://confs.precisionconference.com/%7Eamcis/ ---TIMELINE--- September 20, 2017 System opens for Minitrack proposals October 18, 2017 Minitrack proposals due October 25, 2017 Track chairs' decisions on minitracks due November 1, 2017 Minitrack decisions announced January 2018 System opens for general paper submissions TRACK CHAIRS: Jaime Windeler, University of Cincinnati, Jaime.Windeler(a)uc.edu<mailto:Jaime.Windeler@uc.edu> (primary contact) Hala Annabi, University of Washington, hpannabi(a)uw.edu<mailto:hpannabi@uw.edu> FURTHER INFO on AMCIS and SIG-Social Inclusion: AMCIS website: http://amcis2018.aisnet.org/ SIGSI on Linkedin: http://tinyurl.com/SIGSIlinkedin _________________________________ Jaime Windeler, PhD Assistant Professor of Information Systems Carl H.

El Sawy, University of Southern California Peer Fiss, University of Southern California Abstract This study examines the role that business intelligence (BI) and communication technologies play in how firms may achieve organizational sensing agility, decision making agility, and acting agility in different organizational and environmental contexts. Based on the information-processing view of organizations and dynamic capability theory, we suggest a configurational analytic framework that departs from the standard linear paradigm to examine how IT’s effect on agility is embedded in a configuration of organizational and environmental elements. In line with this approach, we use fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) to analyze field survey data from diverse industries. Our findings suggest equifinal pathways to organizational agility and the specific boundary conditions of our middle-range theory that determine what role BI and communication technologies play in organizations’ achieving organizational agility. We discuss implications for theory and practice and discuss future research avenues.

The conference provides many opportunities for participation, collaboration, and dialogue related to the conference theme, Digital Disruption.’ Digital disruption is the powerful transformation that drives how businesses create value with new digital technologies. Digital disruption transforms all industries, and manifests itself through a variety of digital tools, services, and artifacts. It fuels more rapid and on-going innovation in businesses. We look forward to gathering with you in New Orleans to exchange knowledge. ** *SIG-OSRA* The SIG-OSRA track focuses on advancing research and application of information and communication technologies in the end-user environment to support work processes, foster innovation, improve employee performance, and enhance overall organizational effectiveness in direct support of goals and strategies. ** *Description of Track* By adopting, adapting, or developing Information Systems (IS), organizations and their IS continually undergo a considerable transformation often referred to as “digital transformation”. As a result, information systems, business models, business processes, and end-user workplaces are perpetually analyzed, rethought, and changed. Nowadays, many systems in organizations are already interconnected to form inter-organizational IS, contributing to a complex IS landscape in current organizations. This renews the importance of analyzing the interplay between IS and organizations from socio-technical and end-user perspectives and the implications of changing IS for end-users and customers, who are increasingly technologically savvy and immersed in this digital transformation. We invite mini-tracks on topics related to organizational transformation and IS, business process management, changing workplaces and IS integration, knowledge management and training, end-user computing, and IT consulting and inter-organizational information systems. Potential topics of mini-tracks could relate to (not exhaustive) ·Business Process Management & Change ·New Perspectives on End-User Computing: Consumerization, BYOD and Shadow IT ·Knowledge Management & Knowledge Workers ·Business Ecosystems and Inter-organizational Information Systems ·End-user Development & Open Innovation ·Crowdsourcing and End-User Engagement ·End-user Analytics & Data-driven Organizational Transformation ·Organizational Implications of Service Innovation, Analytics, and End User Engagement ·Implications of the “coding for everyone” trend ·The Role of IT-Consulting in Organizational Transformation ·Applying and Adopting Socio-technical Approaches to Current Challenges of IT-driven organizational transformation ·Changing end-user competencies and the use of information systems ·Challenging and Extending (Design) Theory to effectively capitalize on Digital Disruption *Opportunities/Fast Tracking in Journals* High quality and relevant papers from the mini-tracks will be selected for fast-tracked development towards Internet Research (http://www.emeraldinsight.com/loi/intr). Selected papers will need to expand in content and length in line with the requirements for standard research articles published in the journal. Although the track co-chairs are committed to guiding the selected papers towards final publication, further reviews may be needed before final publication decision can be made. Internet Research (IntR) is an international and refereed journal that is indexed and abstracted in major databases (e.g., SSCI, SCI, ABI/INFORM Global). The topics published in IntR are broad and interdisciplinary in nature. The 2015 impact factor of the journal is 3.017. *Mini-track Submissions* Mini-track proposals need to be submitted online via AMCIS’s submission system (https://confs.precisionconference.com/~amcis/ <https://confs.precisionconference.com/%7Eamcis/>) no later than October 18th 2017.

The track covers areas such as formal methods for verification and testing, based on theorem proving, model checking, static analysis, and run-time verification. We invite authors to submit new results in formal verification and testing, as well as development of technologies to improve the usability of formal methods in software engineering. Also are welcome detailed descriptions of applications of mechanical verification to large scale software. Possible topics include, but are not limited to: model checking theorem proving correct by construction development model-based testing software testing symbolic execution static and dynamic analysis abstract interpretation analysis methods for dependable systems software certification and proof carrying code fault diagnosis and debugging verification and validation of large scale software systems real world applications and case studies applying software testing and verification benchmarks and data sets for software testing and verification Submissions Guidelines Paper submissions must be original, unpublished work. Author(s) name(s) and address(es) must not appear in the body of the paper, and self-reference should be avoided and made in the third person. Submitted paper will undergo a blind review process. Authors of accepted papers should submit an editorial revision of their papers that fits within eight two-column pages (an extra two pages, to a total of ten pages, may be available at a charge). Please comply to this page limitation already at submission time. Accepted papers will be published in the ACM SAC 2018 proceedings. Paper registration is required, allowing the inclusion of papers, posters, or SRC abstracts in the conference proceedings. An author or a proxy attending SAC MUST present the work. This is a requirement for the presented work to be included in the ACM/IEEE digital library. No-show of registered papers, posters, and SRC abstracts will result in excluding them from the ACM/IEEE digital library. Student Research Competition As previous editions, SAC 2018 organises a Student Research Competition (SRC) Program to provide graduate students the opportunity to meet and exchange ideas with researchers and practitioners in their areas of interest.

Fwd: [computational.science] Special Issue on Parallel and Distributed Data Mining
by Gustaf Neumann 19 Sep '17

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [computational.science] Special Issue on Parallel and Distributed Data Mining Datum: Tue, 19 Sep 2017 18:01:50 +0200 Von: Massimo Cafaro <massimo.cafaro(a)unisalento.it> An: "Цымблер Михаил Леонидович via computational.science" <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> Special Issue on Parallel and Distributed Data Mining Information Sciences, Elsevier The sheer volume of new data, which is being generated at an increasingly fast pace, has already produced an anticipated data deluge that is difficult to challenge. We are in the presence of an overwhelming vast quantity of data, owing to how easy is to produce or derive digital data. Even the storage of this massive amount of data is becoming a highly demanding task, outpacing the current development of hardware and software infrastructure. Nonetheless, this effort must be undertaken now for the preservation, organization and long-term maintenance of these precious data. However, the collected data is useless without our ability fully understand and make use of it. Therefore, we need new algorithms to address this challenge. Data mining techniques and algorithms to process huge amount of data in order to extract useful and interesting information have become popular in many different contexts. Algorithms are required to make sense of data automatically and in efficient ways. Nonetheless, even though sequential computer systems performance is improving, they are not suitable to keep up with the increase in the demand for data mining applications and the data size. Moreover, the main memory of sequential systems may not be enough to hold all the data related to current applications. This Special Issue takes into account the increasing interest in the design and implementation of parallel and distributed data mining algorithms. Parallel algorithms can easily address both the running time and memory requirement issues, by exploiting the vast aggregate main memory and processing power of processors and accelerators available on parallel computers. Anyway, parallelizing existing algorithms in order to achieve good performance and scalability with regard to massive datasets is not trivial. Indeed, it is of paramount importance a good data organization and decomposition strategy in order to balance the workload while minimizing data dependences. Another concern is related to minimizing synchronization and communication overhead. Finally, I/O costs should be minimized as well. Creating breakthrough parallel algorithms for high-performance data mining applications requires addressing several key computing problems which may lead to novel solutions and new insights in interdisciplinary applications. Moreover, increasingly the data is spread among different geographically distributed sites. Centralized processing of this data is very inefficient and expensive. In some cases, it may even be impractical and subject to security risks. Therefore, processing the data minimizing the amount of data being exchanged whilst guaranteeing at the same time correctness and efficiency is an extremely important challenge. Distributed data mining performs data analysis and mining in a fundamentally distributed manner paying careful attention to resource constraints, in particular bandwidth limitation, privacy concerns and computing power. The focus of this Special Issue is on all forms of advances in high-performance and distributed data mining algorithms and applications. The topics relevant to the Special Issue include (but are not limited to) the following. TOPICS OF INTEREST Scalable parallel data mining algorithms using message-passing, shared-memory or hybrid programming paradigms Exploiting modern parallel architectures including FPGA, GPU and many-core accelerators for parallel data mining applications Middleware for high-performance data mining on grid and cloud environments Benchmarking and performance studies of high-performance data mining applications Novel programming paradigms to support high-performance computing for data mining Performance models for high-performance data mining applications and middleware Programming models, tools, and environments for high-performance computing in data mining Map-reduce based parallel data mining algorithms Caching, streaming, pipelining, and other optimization techniques for data management in high-performance computing for data mining Novel distributed data mining algorithms SUBMISSION GUIDELINES All manuscripts and any supplementary material should be submitted electronically through Elsevier Editorial System (EES) at http://ees.elsevier.com/ins (http://ees.elsevier.com/ins).

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] IT-Architektur - Aufruf zur Einreichung eines Beitrags für die HMD - Praxis der Wirtschaftsinformatik, Ausgabe 323 (Oktober 2018) Datum: Tue, 19 Sep 2017 10:25:47 +0200 Von: Prof. Dr. Matthias Knoll <matthias.knoll(a)h-da.de> Antwort an: Prof. Dr. Matthias Knoll <matthias.knoll(a)h-da.de> Organisation: Hochschule Darmstadt An: wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de <wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de> Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, liebe Kolleginnen und Kollegen, Die HMD 323 - Praxis der Wirtschaftsinformatik mit Erscheinungsdatum Oktober 2018 befasst sich mit aktuellen Fragestellungen rund um das Thema "IT-Architektur". Der Begriff „IT-Architektur“ ist vielschichtig, seine Verwendung in der Praxis daher häufig mehrdimensional. Aus diesem Grund ist es das Ziel der Ausgabe 323, einen umfassenden Überblick über die Architekturbegriffe im Kontext der IT zu verschaffen, sie systematisch einzuordnen und Anwendungsszenarien zu beschreiben. Neben technischen Beiträgen sollen insbesondere auch alle Überlegungen zur „richtigen“ Architektur im Kontext der Digitalisierung mit einfließen. Denn letztlich ist es gerade heute von zentraler Bedeutung die unternehmenseigene IT-Architektur auf allen Ebenen so zu gestalten, dass der digitale Wandel des eigenen Unternehmens erfolgreich ist. Gesucht werden daher Beiträge aus Forschung und Praxis gleichermaßen, die sich mit Fragen der Gestaltung der IT-Architektur ebenso auseinandersetzen, wie mit den Folgen im Kontext der Digitalisierung. Willkommen sind hierbei auch Beiträge zu speziellen Fragestellungen im Architektur-Kontext, beispielsweise passende Architektur-Konzepte für die Datenhaltung vor dem Hintergrund der neuen EU-DSGVO oder einer Architektur nach dem Konzept des Security-by-Design für die IoT-Welt. Zur besseren Planbarkeit bitte ich interessierte Autorinnen und Autoren, mir baldmöglichst in einem kurzen Abstract Ihren Beitragsvorschlag per Mail einzureichen. Dieser Abstract soll die wesentliche Frage-/Themenstellung und die wesentlichen Stichworte umfassen. Sie erhalten dann bis spätestens Mitte November die Rückmeldung, ob Ihr Beitrag in den weiteren Prozess aufgenommen wurde. Ihr fertiger Beitrag sollte für den Review-Prozess bis 01.05.2018 als anonymisiertes Word-Dokument über den Editorial-Manager (https://www.editorialmanager.com/hmdw/) eingereicht sein. Falls Sie hierzu Fragen haben, wenden Sie sich bitte per Mail direkt an mich. Die Beiträge werden doppelt begutachtet (siehe hierzu auch unsere Autorenrichtlinien auf der HMD-Website: www.springer.com/computer/journal/40702) und inhaltlich von mir als Herausgeber betreut. Eventuelle Überarbeitungen nach Abschluss des Begutachtungsverfahrens müssen bis spätestens 20.07.2018 abgeschlossen sein. Die endgültige Annahme erfolgt dann bis spätestens 27.07.2018 Bitte richten Sie Ihre Vorschläge an Prof. Dr. Matthias Knoll, Hochschule Darmstadt, matthias.knoll(a)h-da.de. Für Rückfragen stehe ich jederzeit gerne zur Verfügung und freue mich auf Ihre Einreichungen. Mit den besten Grüßen Matthias Knoll -- Mailing-Liste: wi(a)lists.kit.edu Administrator: wi-request(a)lists.kit.edu Konfiguration: https://www.lists.kit.edu/wws/info/wi
