-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [WI] 1st CfP: Intelligent and Semantic Web Systems for Crisis Response and Management Date: Wed, 3 Oct 2018 09:52:59 +0100 From: Fiona McNeill <f.mcneill(a)hw.ac.uk> Reply-To: Fiona McNeill <f.mcneill(a)hw.ac.uk> To: Fiona McNeill <fionamcneill(a)gmail.com> Apologies for cross-posting ************************************************** **Call for Papers**: Intelligent and Semantic Web Systems for Crisis Response and Management at the International Conference for Crisis Response and Management (ISCRAM) in Valencia, Spain, 20-22 May 2019. INTRODUCTION The aim of this track is to bring together state-of-the-art works on crisis information systems that exhibit some degree of intelligent behaviour. Intelligent systems have for many years now been at the forefront of empowering crisis managers, citizens and communities through advanced information systems. Providing adequate information management and decision support during a crisis situation makes exacting demands on the information systems employed. Acquiring, filtering, organizing, representing, reasoning with and distributing relevant information to the right stakeholders at the right time and in the right format is a challenging and complex task. Intelligent and Semantic Web systems provide a way of managing this complexity, for example by accessing and assessing data from multiple online sources. Such systems may be deployed to help emergency responders to maintain community resilience, to enhance their preparedness, to manage the crisis or to implement the recovery. Intelligent systems will display some ability to reason, perceive, learn or act intelligently in their environments; and they may have proactive, reactive, autonomous and/or social aspects. Techniques from Artificial Intelligence, the Semantic Web and associated domains may be employed to develop such robust and adaptable information management and decision support systems. This track welcomes contributions to the theory, methodology and practice of developing and evaluating intelligent systems in the context of crisis response and management. TRACK TOPICS INCLUDE, but are not limited to -Intelligent context-aware modelling and processing - Intelligent agents and distributed problem solving - Applications of the Semantic Web and linked data to crisis management - Development and applications of ontologies and knowledge graphs for crisis management - Intelligent user interfaces - Smart cities and smart environments - Rescue robotics and Humanitarian UAVs - Case studies featuring the application of AI techniques - Human-AI interaction and human-aware AI for crisis management - Intelligent training systems - Agent based modeling and social simulation as a decision making tool - Adaptive and self organizing systems - Machine learning and deep learning applications - Vision recognition - Intelligent mapping - Knowledge representation, discovery and reasoning - Planning and scheduling - Social intelligence - Automatic negotiation of trust and analysis of provenance information - Optimization and heuristics - Intelligent behaviour in wireless sensor networks - Applications based on blockchain and distributed ledgers technologies TRACK FORMAT We intend to have two different aspects to the track organization during the conference. The first will be standard paper presentation to outline the state of the art in the field. The second will focus on building networks and cross-disciplinary collaborations with a view to facilitating future work in the track. This will consist of themed discussion groups organised via Well Sorted (https://www.well-sorted.org <https://www.well-sorted.org/>). Attendees enter one or more topics of personal interest within the theme and then, once all topics are entered, sort them into what they believe are areas of overlapping interest. The system then creates themed groups. We will ask accepted authors to input their topics before the conference, and in the days leading up to and during the conference will promote this event to all conference attendees to give everyone with any interest in the theme a chance to participate and to increase awareness of and interest in the track. We hope this will be particularly useful to engage practitioners, students and others who may feel they don’t have much to offer the theme from a technical point of view but have relevant views about the crisis domain challenges and can bring a broad scope to the discussions. The general discussions within the themed groups will focus on: 1) how can intelligent systems improve crisis management?, and 2) what are the potential drawbacks and ethical issues of using intelligent and automated systems? More specific themes will emerge during the grouping process. SUBMISSIONS AND IMPORTANT DATES We accept both core research (CoRe) papers and work in progress (WiPe) papers. CoRe papers should be 4000-8000 words and WiPe papers should be 3000-6000 words. Unsuccessful papers may, if judged to have sufficient relevance, be accepted as posters, and unsuccessful CoRe papers may, if appropriate, be invited to resubmit as WiPe papers. Full Research and Insight Papers Submission deadline: December 1st, 2018 Decision notification: January 7th, 2019 WiPe (Short) Papers Submission deadline: February 8th, 2019 Decision notification: March 8th, 2019 TRACK CHAIRS Julie Dugdale, University Grenoble Alps, France.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] 2nd CFP: ICSA 2019 -- IEEE Intl Conf on Software Architecture 2019 Date: Wed, 3 Oct 2018 13:08:57 -0400 From: Bastian Tenbergen <bastian.tenbergen(a)oswego.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org *** SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS *** ICSA 2019 IEEE International Conference on Software Architecture March 25-29, 2019 Hamburg, Germany http://icsa-conferences.org/2019/ ICSA cordially invites contributions related to all aspects of software architecture. Submissions can be made in the following categories: * Technical track * New and Emerging Ideas (NEMI) track * Software Architecture in Practice (SAIP) track * Tool Demonstrations track * Early Career Researchers Forum (ECRF-ICSA 2019) * Workshops * Tutorials The International Conference on Software Architecture (ICSA 2019) is the premier gathering of practitioners and researchers interested in software architecture, in component-based software engineering and in quality aspects of complex software systems. ICSA continues the tradition of a working conference, where researchers meet practitioners and where software architects can explain the problems they face in their day-to-day work and try to influence the future of the field. Interactive working sessions will be the place where researchers meet practitioners to identify opportunities to create the future. The increasing size of software systems and the emergence of increasingly autonomous systems is asking for innovative software engineering practices. The way software is being developed and maintained is rapidly changing and must take into account multifaceted constraints like fast-changing and unpredictable markets, complex and changing customer requirements, pressures of shorter time-to-market, rapidly advancing information technologies, just to name a few of these new aspects. To cope with such constraints, software is increasingly produced according to rapid continuous software engineering development processes. The theme of ICSA 2019 is "Architectures to interconnect Services and Systems". We welcome original contributions that explore and explain the role of architecture in current systems as well as in near future systems. This conference looks at what can be learned from our software architecture history, experience, studies, and best practices. ============================== *Call for Papers* ============================== We solicit the software architecture community original submissions of the following types: *Technical Papers* ============================== Technical research papers (10 pages) should describe original and significant results of theoretical, empirical, conceptual, or experimental research in software architecture research or industrial practice. The novelty of the contribution needs to be clearly described and the results validated. Technical research papers are limited to 10 proceedings pages, and will be evaluate based on soundness, significance, verifiability, and presentation quality, in that order. *Topics* -------------------- Topics of interest for the conference include (but are not limited to) the following themes: * Architecture & CI, CD and DevOps, * Microservices * Model driven engineering for continuous architecting * Up-front architecture and agile development * Architecting Systems of Systems, IoT systems, CPSs, software ecosystems, self-adaptive systems, or autonomous systems * Component based software engineering and architecture design * Architecture evaluation and quality aspects of software architectures * Automatic extraction and generation of software architecture descriptions * Re-factoring and evolving architecture design decisions and solutions * Architecture frameworks and architecture description languages * Linking architecture to requirements and/or implementation * Preserving architecture quality throughout the system lifetime * Reusable architectural solutions * Software architecture knowledge management * Software architecture for legacy systems and systems integration * Architecting families of products * Cultural, economic, business and managerial aspects of software architecture * Software architects roles and responsibilities * Training, education, and certification of software architects * State-of-the-art and state-of-practice in software architecture * Industrial experiments and case studies *Anonymization, Formatting and Submission Instructions* -------------------- Please note that ICSA 2019 will pursue a double-blind review process for the main Technical track (only), therefore all submissions to this track have to fulfill the double-blind reviewing requirements, see https://swk-www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/~icsa2019 /call-for-papers/author-instructions/index.html. Papers submitted to the ICSA2019 technical track that disregard these review requirements will not be reviewed but desk-rejected. All submissions must conform to the Author Instructions, see https://swk-www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/~icsa2019 /call-for-papers/author-instructions/index.html. All papers are to be submitted electronically via the EasyChair submission system https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icsa2019 by the submission deadline, and must not have been published before. For more information please contact the Program Committee chairs through the email contact address mailto:icsa2019@easychair.org <icsa2019(a)easychair.org> *Publication* -------------------- All accepted technical track contributions will be published in ICSA 2019 proceedings, and appear in IEEE Xplore Digital Library. *New and Emerging Ideas* ============================== The goal of the New and Emerging Ideas (NEMI) track at ICSA 2019 is to encourage the software architecture community to propose new software architecture research visions and ideas, which can potentially challenge the status quo of the software architecture discipline (research and practice) and point to new directions and opportunities. *Types of submissions* -------------------- The ICSA 2019 NEMI track seeks the following types of contributions: *New Ideas*: -------------------- * Visions or new directions supported by a strong and well motivated scientific foundation or practical application; * Arguments or results that challenge established results or beliefs, giving evidence that calls for fundamentally new directions, opening up new research avenues or software architecture practices; * Radically new approaches, techniques, or theories that can bring new results to software architecture research or practice. *Emerging Results*: -------------------- * Not yet fully mature research results, that may lack full validation but that still can stimulate discussions; papers should trigger discussion and raise awareness and reflection on specific topics, in research and/or industrial practice. NEMI papers must clearly motivate and illustrate a rationale for changing current practice and/or research in software architecture. Evaluation results are not required for NEMI papers (but if such results exist, then they may be presented, if only to give the reviewers a feel about the evaluation plan). Strong argumentation and reasoning is expected to inspire the readers. *Scope* -------------------- NEMI provides a forum for innovative, thought-provoking insights in software architecture in order to accelerate the exposure of the community to early and on-going yet promising and potentially inspiring innovations in industry and academia. NEMI papers are not second-class ICSA research track papers. NEMI is a forum for first-class contributions that provide novel, soundly motivated directions and emerging results in research and practice. In principle, the track addresses the same topics of interest as those of the technical paper track. However, NEMI authors are encouraged to combine these topics in new ways, to establish connections to other fields outside of classical software architecture, push the boundaries of software architecture to new avenues, as well as to argue for the importance of software architecture research and practice in areas not explicitly listed. *Out of scope* -------------------- A NEMI submission should not be just incremental results on existing research, nor disguised advertisements for previously published results, products, tools or methods, or experience reports. ICSA 2019 has several tracks and workshops where such works can be submitted. *Evaluation* -------------------- All submissions will be evaluated in terms of the following criteria: * Value: the problem is worth exploring, ideally real world use-inspired. * Impact: the potential for disruption of current practice and/or research; * Originality: new insights or ideas/visions; * Rationale: soundness of the justification, reasoning and argumentation; * Evaluation: appropriate consideration of relevant literature and/or research evaluation to demonstrate originality, arguments and limitations; * Quality: overall manuscript quality. *Formatting and submission Instructions* -------------------- All NEMI submissions must conform to the Author Instructions https://swk-www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/~icsa2019 /call-for-papers/author-instructions/index.html, and must not exceed *four pages*, including all text, references, appendices, and figures. No double-blind, but single-blind review will apply to NEMI papers. All papers are to be submitted electronically via the NEMI EasyChair submission system https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icsa2019nemi, by the submission deadline. Submissions must not have been published elsewhere and must not be under review or submitted for review elsewhere while under consideration for ICSA 2019 NEMI track.. Note that in addition to an oral plenary presentation at the conference, authors of accepted papers may also bring a poster describing their work to further showcase their work to a broader ICSA audience. For more information please contact the NEMI track chairs through the email contact address mailto:icsa2019nemi@easychair.org <icsa2019nemi(a)easychair.org> *Publication* -------------------- All accepted technical track contributions will be published in ICSA 2019 Companion proceedings, and appear in IEEE Xplore Digital Library. *Software Architecture in Practice* ============================== The ICSA Software Architecture in Practice (SAIP) Track provides practitioners and researchers a platform to present and discuss the most recent innovations and findings in the field of software architecture by means of experience reports and talks. Topics of interest are the same as for the ICSA 2019 Technical Track. *Types of Submissions and Publication* -------------------- We solicit the following types of submissions: *SW Architecture in Practice papers* (4-8 pages) address industry-relevant software architecture problems through systematic investigations. Full papers may describe industry-relevant experience and best practices. Successful applications of research ideas in industrial settings are welcomed as well as negative results that rigorously describe why a research approach cannot be applied. Empirical analyses of industry-relevant software architecture issues may help both practitioners and researchers. The evaluation criteria are potential impact, repeatability, and real-world focus. An extensive discussion of the context in which the result was obtained is useful to transfer an approach to other contexts. Full papers will appear in the ICSA Companion proceedings. *Technical talk proposals* (2 pages) must feature current trends in the industry on the practice of software architecture presenting ideas that are both inspirational and informative. Proposals should make clear why the talk is interesting to ICSA SAIP attendees. Each accepted talk will be of 30 minutes duration. Extended abstracts of the accepted talks will appear in the ICSA Companion proceedings. *Formatting and Submission Instructions* -------------------- All submissions must conform to the Author Instructions https://swk-www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/~icsa2019 /call-for-papers/author-instructions/index.html. No double-blind, but single-blind review will apply to SAIP papers. All papers are to be submitted electronically via the EasyChair submission system https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icsa2019saip, and must not have been published before. For more information please contact the SAIP track chairs through the email contact address mailto:icsa2019saip@easychair.org *Tool Demonstrations* ============================== The ICSA 2019 Tool Demonstrations track provides researchers, practitioners, and educators with a platform to present and discuss the most recent innovations and findings in the field of software architecture by means of live tool presentations. We distinguish two categories of tool demo submissions addressing any aspect of tool support to help software architects, researchers, and practitioners: *Tools used in practice*, either from commercial vendors or open-source projects. These demonstrations should focus on practical applications within the different activities of software architecting and should particularly show how they advance the current state of the practice. New ideas and features are particularly welcome. *Research tools* from academic or industrial research environments. These demonstrations are intended to highlight underlying scientific contributions and show how scientific approaches have been transferred into a working tool. Both categories may range from early prototypes to in-house or pre-commercialized products. Authors of regular ICSA papers are also welcome to submit an accompanying tool paper by adding information regarding the actual demo as an appendix, as described further under submission requirements. We especially appreciate tool demos in line with the theme of ICSA 2019, which is “Architectures to interconnect Services and Systems” – leveraging advances like cross-functional and cross-national teams, scaling research to industry scale problems, bridging customer-developer divides, and working in an ‘intelligent connected’ world. Of course tool demos on other topics of Software Architecture are welcome too. *Submission Requirements* -------------------- Submissions of papers for tool demonstrations must: * Have a maximum length of 4 pages, describing the technology or approach, how it relates to other industrial or research efforts, including references, and what the expected benefits are. * Have an appendix of maximum 2 pages (not included in the page count) that provides a brief description of how the presentation will be conducted, information on tool availability, maturity and the web-page for the tool (if one exists). * Clearly state the tool category: in-practice or research. * Must conform to the Author Instructions https://swk-www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/~icsa2019 /call-for-papers/author-instructions/index.html. No double-blind, but single-blind review will apply to tool demo track submissions. * Are to be submitted electronically via the EasyChair submission system https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icsa2019tool, and must not have been published before. Optionally, the submission can be accompanied with a video (maximum length of 5 minutes) in high resolution. In this case, a link to a page where the video can be viewed needs to be included in the appendix. Note that the video is not mandatory, but if it is available, it will be used to the benefit of the evaluation of the submission. Tool demos papers and accompanying artifacts will go through a peer review process and accepted papers will be included in the IEEE companion proceedings. For more information please contact the track organizers through the contact address icsa2019tool(a)easychair.org *Early Career Researchers Submissions* ============================== The goal of the Early Career Researchers Forum (ECRF-ICSA 2019) is to inspire and bring together early career researchers in the field of software architecture. This forum provides a vibrant place for discussing potential and ongoing research at any stage, from ideas to results. This forum strives to provide a friendly environment for early career researchers to present their research proposals and early results, and get feedbacks and inspirations from experienced researchers. This forum stimulates interactions between early career researchers and experienced academic and industry members of the community by offering a two-stage submission process that will enable early career researchers to obtain feedbacks on their submissions. *Participation* -------------------- Participation is open to research candidates (PhD or Masters), industrial researchers or recent PhD graduates who want to share and improve their research in the field of software architecture. *Submission and Process* -------------------- The submission shall be a written report of between 6-8 pages. The format of the submission shall be in IEEE format (see Author Instructions). Each submission shall include the following: *Part 1: Research Submission* Each submission should include the following information · The title of your submission · Your information (name, affiliation, and e-mail address) · An abstract of your research · Motivations and goals justifying the importance of your research problem · Research questions and hypotheses that describes what you want to achieve, solve or demonstrate · A discussion of the existing and related works that your research is built upon, especially explaining why these works do not solve the problem(s) that you have identified · Description of the research methods and the collection of your evidence · Description of your potential contributions or contributions · Description of your research agenda Note that the scope of this submission is not limited to one area of research, it could be a research agenda that connects several related research questions. Please submit this part through the Easychair submission system https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ecrficsa2019. *Part 2: Recommendation Letter* Ask your main research advisor (in case of research candidates) or supervisor (in case of PhD graduates or industry researcher) for a letter of recommendation. This letter should include: · Your name and position · Current status of your research · An endorsement of the publication of your submission The letter should be in PDF format and should be sent directly by your advisor via e-mail to the ECRF-ICSA2019 Chairs through this email address mailto:ecrficsa2019@easychair.org. This recommendation letter will be held confidential. The e-mail subject should have the subject "ICSA2019-ECRF Recommendation" plus your Last Name. *Evaluation* -------------------- In the first round, one member of the programme committee will provide feedbacks and comments to each initial submission. Based on the initial feedbacks, some early career researchers will be invited to improve their works for resubmissions. Submissions in the second round will be evaluated by two committee members. A selection will take place based on the quality and potential of the research and its relevance to Software Architecture. Selected submissions will be accepted for publications and talks in the ECRF forum. *Publication* -------------------- Submissions that are selected by the program committee members will be invited to publish in the ICSA 2019 Companion Proceedings. *Presentation and Discussion* -------------------- All early career researchers who have their submissions accepted must present in the ECRF-ICSA 2019. The chairs of ECRF reserve the rights not to publish the paper of an absentee. A researcher shall have 15 minutes to present their research and research agenda. Experienced researchers shall provide feedbacks and facilitate discussions. *Workshop Proposals* ============================== ICSA 2019 workshops provide a unique forum for researchers and practitioners to present, learn, discuss and explore the latest experiences, challenges, trends and emerging R&D results in the field of software architecture. A workshop is not a mini-conference. The goal of workshops is to provide a forum for participants to engage in intensive discussion and explore the topic from different perspectives. Workshops can be half-day or one-day events. Potential topics for workshops are the same as, but not limited to, those of the ICSA 2019 Technical track. Workshop chairs are responsible for submission and selection of papers. Submissions must follow the IEEE Computer Science proceedings format, as workshop proceedings will be published by IEEE CS Digital Library. Workshop organizers may allow for different types of contributions (e.g., short and long papers), but a workshop paper should not exceed a maximum of 8 pages in IEEE format. *Formatting and Submission Instructions* -------------------- All workshop proposals must conform, at time of submission, to the IEEE Formatting Guidelines ( http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html ). Proposals must be written in English and not exceed 4 pages in length.

Auch in der Forschung werden sie seit dem Aufkommen von RFID-Technologien, embedded systems und dem Internet der Dinge diskutiert und waren schon lange davor Gegenstand der Vision allgegenwärtiger Informationsverarbeitung (ubiquitous computing). Im Kontext aktueller Digitalisierungsthemen rund um Industrie 4.0, Big Data, Künstliche Intelligenz und maschinelles Lernen, Cloud-/Edge Computing sowie Ökosystem- und Plattformstrategien haben sie jedoch eine neue Qualität erreicht. Die Nutzung von Daten durch sie und über sie sowie ihre Einbettung in übergeordnete Systeme ermöglicht neue Funktionalitäten und damit eine andere Dimension von „Intelligenz und Autonomie“, die heute zunehmend wertschöpfend genutzt wird und neuartige Geschäftsmodelle realisieren hilft. Vor diesem Hintergrund widmen Porter und Heppelmann einen zweiteiligen Beitrag im Harvard Business Review (2015) der Fragestellung "how smart, connected products are transforming companies". Die Ausgabe 327 der HMD adressiert diese Fragestellung mit konkreten Fallbeispielen, behandelt aber auch technologische und methodische Themen z.B. im Kontext der Entwicklung smarter Produkte. Mögliche Themenstellungen des Schwerpunktheftes im Kontext smarter Produkte sind u.a.: ·Entwicklungsansätze * Nutzungsszenarien und Potenziale versus Risiken * Akzeptanz und Verbreitung * Geschäftsmodelle * Auswirkungen auf Wettbewerb und Wertschöpfung * Ökosysteme * Architekturen, Plattformen und Infrastrukturen * Edge oder Cloud * Von smarten Produkten zu smarten Diensten * Produktdaten: Rechte, Potenziale * Smarte Produktion * Produkt-IT: Management der IT in und an Produkten *Themenvorschläge: *Bitte wenden Sie sich vor einer Einreichung mit Vorschlägen (Thema, kurzes Abstract) an die Herausgeber des Heftes. *Termine und Fristen: *Einreichung von Vorschlägen bis: 16.
