Nevertheless, data is useless unless it is used to create value from it. For this, data needs to be shared, processed and analyzed with traditional and advanced methods towards operational and strategic decision-making. Data-driven government refers to sensing and the subsequent collecting of all kinds of data using machine-readable data formats. This data can be used for internal purposes, but also for opening the data to the public to create transparency, and accountability or to enable participation and even business innovation. Open data can be combined with all kind of data sources to infer and generate value. This can result in recommendations for improving the public sector, business model innovation and the creation of transparency. These developments are resulting in drastic changes of the public sector. The rise of all kinds of data has resulted in the demand for new approaches for organizing, storing, processing, analyzing, curating, linking and visualizing results of data. These approaches all form part of data value chains, which enable data users to extract value from the data. Although there is a huge potential, how the exploiting of data should be accomplished and what is the impact of public organizations is not understood. All these developments impact the operation of governments and their relationship with the public. There are changes at the technical, organizational, managerial and political level that impact the capabilities needed, the making of policies and traditional institutional structures. This minitrack is aimed at discussing theories, methodologies, experience reports, literature and case studies in the field of Big & Open Linked Data (BOLD), Information Processing, Data Analytics, and Data Value in Government. We solicit for papers covering both organizational and technical aspects and combining theory and practice. Papers taking interdisciplinary approaches and covering a multitude of aspects are strongly encouraged. Furthermore, we promote a diversity of research methods to study the challenges of this multifaceted discipline including best practices, case studies, design approaches, literature reviews and interviews. Minitrack topics include, but are not limited to: Open Data Practices, Technologies and Applications in Government Impact of data-driven government and society on the technical, organizational and institutional level Big & Open Linked Data (BOLD) Metadata and semantic approaches Data value, data value chains, and data governance Data analytics, processing, intelligence and visualization Data-driven strategies and policies Data quality, privacy, trust and security Internet of Things (IoT) for data-driven government Changing relationship between government, private organizations and society Methods and technologies leading to enhanced digital public services Data-driven public sector innovations and applications Architectural standards, principles and frameworks Technical, semantic, organizational, managerial and legal/policy aspects of interoperability System development, implementation and agile approaches for digital public services System, user, data and process-based integration Co-creation using data and citizen engagement Information and cloud infrastructures, shared services, cloud providers Reuse and data quality and ownership Semantic ontologies, web services and modeling for governmental infrastructures Cloud computing, Software as service (SaaS), ICT-services, scalability, reliability, flexibility Data platforms, interoperability, information sharing and public business models Cross-organizational modeling and visualization ranging from the organizational to technical level Service-oriented architectures, web services, semantic web services, orchestration and composition Citizen-driven and entrepreneurial approaches based on open data Adoption, failure and success factors and organization of a data-driven government ****************************************************** Minitrack Co-Chairs: Marijn Janssen (Primary contact) Delft University of Technology m.f.w.h.a.janssen(a)tudelft.nl <mailto:m.f.w.h.a.janssen@tudelft.nl> Judie Attard Trinity College, Dublin judie.attard(a)adaptcentre.ie <mailto:judie.attard@adaptcentre.ie> Charalampos Alexopoulos University of the Aegean alexop(a)aegean.gr <mailto:alexop@aegean.gr> _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Call for papers - HICSS-52 - DISTRIBUTED LEDGER TECHNOLOGY, THE BLOCKCHAIN MINITRACK Date: Sat, 10 Mar 2018 18:45:38 +0100 From: Liudmila Zavolokina <zavolokina(a)ifi.uzh.ch> To: AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org Call for papers ************************************************************************ DISTRIBUTED LEDGER TECHNOLOGY, THE BLOCKCHAIN MINITRACK - Part of the Internet and the Digital Economy Track - 52nd annual Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences HICSS-52: January 8-11, 2019| Maui, Hawaii ************************************************************************ IMPORTANT DATES - April 15: Paper submission begins - June 15: Paper submissions deadline - August 17: Notification of Acceptance/Rejection - September 22: Deadline for authors to submit final manuscript for publication - October 1: Deadline for at least one author to register for HICSS-52 ************************************************************************ MINI-TRACK DESCRIPTION Among other promising technologies, Distributed Ledger Technologies (DLTs), often referred to as Blockchain, promise to be one of the most disruptive technologies since the invention of the internet’s TCP/IP protocol, yet this technology so far lacks scholarly attention and coverage in peer-reviewed literature. The combination of some DLT characteristics, e.g. accountability, pseudonymity or distributed network topology, as well as the first cryptocurrency Bitcoin, drew enormous attention given the ubiquitous amount of possibilities for which this technology can be used since its invention in 2008 by Satoshi Nakamoto. Whereas TCP/IP lowered the cost of transferring data between two parties dramatically, DLTs have the potential to reduce the cost of transactions (i.e. transfer of assets and value) dramatically. DLTs can enable the secure transfer of any asset worldwide with nearly instant accountability by specifically cutting out intermediary trust holders due to the capabilities of the network’s proof-of-X trust-building-processes, e.g. the Bitcoin proof-of-work mining concept. More recent developments that build on top of DLTs, like smart contracts and Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) take the possibilities of programmable secure transactions even further. In this context, companies, governments, and whole industries are facing dramatic organizational change and transformation processes with regard to their value chains while adopting DLTs. This minitrack welcomes fundamental research regarding methods and techniques, issues, and key challenges, as well as organizational approaches for understanding the potential of DLTs for business models, value chains, emerging competitive landscapes and new start-ups employing this technology. Research may cover any industry or organizational form and may focus on the technology layer or strategic organizational challenges, opening this track both to the IT and economic/management science community to reflect their increasing dependency on each other. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: 1. Current state of the art of blockchain technologies and smart contracts 2. Applications of blockchain technology and their potential in different areas (finance, insurance, healthcare and pharmaceuticals, energy sector, manufacturing, transportation, automotive industry, provenance, government sector etc.) 3. Blockchain and Internet of Things (machine-to-machine interaction, automated devices, blockchain for metered appliances, etc.) 4. Impact on business models (change of existing business models, emergence of new business models, disruptive business models, etc.) 5. Organizational transformation through blockchain technology (distributed autonomous organizations, etc.) 6. Impact on the value chain (disintermediation, change of actors, advantages and disadvantages, etc.), the internet and the digital economy. 7. Regulatory aspects of blockchain technology and implications for risk management 8. Technical issues of blockchain technology (emergent protocols, consensus mechanisms, scalability, reliability, security, challenges of implementation, etc.) 9. Philosophical issues on use of blockchain technology (governance of blockchain society, decentralization of society, building of community and collaboration) ************************************************************************ Minitrack Co-Chairs: Isabell Welpe (Primary Contact) Technical University of Munich welpe(a)tum.de <mailto:welpe@tum.de> Liudmila Zavolokina University of Zurich zavolokina(a)ifi.uzh.ch <mailto:zavolokina@ifi.uzh.ch> Helmut Krcmar Technical University of Munich krcmar(a)in.tum.de <mailto:krcmar@in.tum.de> Pascal Mehrwald Technical University of Munich pascal.mehrwald(a)tum.de <mailto:pascal.mehrwald@tum.de> ---------------------------------------------------- Information Management Research Group Department of Informatics University of Zurich Binzmuehlestrasse 14 CH-8050 Zurich, Switzerland E-Mail: zavolokina(a)ifi.uzh.ch <mailto:zavolokina@ifi.uzh.ch> Phone: +41 44 635 75 83 Room: 2.D.11 Web: http://www.ifi.uzh.ch/imrg <http://www.ifi.uzh.ch/imrg> _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

The goal of the artifact submissions is to strengthen our field's scientific approach to evaluations and reproducibility of results. The virtual machines will be archived on a permanent Static Analysis Symposium website to provide a record of past experiments and tools, allowing future research to better evaluate and contrast existing work. Artifact submission is optional. We accept only virtual machine images that can be processed with Virtual Box. Details on what to submit and how will be sent to the corresponding authors by mail shortly after the paper submission deadline. The submitted artifacts will be used by the program committee as a secondary evaluation criterion whose sole purpose is to find additional positive arguments for the paper's acceptance. Furthermore, an Artifact Evaluation Committee will assess artifacts and will award an "Artifact Approved" stamps to accepted papers that come with an artifact that allows to reproduce the results presented in the paper. Submissions without artifacts are welcome and will not be penalized. Important Dates - Full paper submission: April 6th, 2018 (anywhere on earth) - Artifact submission: April 20th, 2018 (anywhere on earth) - Notification: June 5th, 2018 - Final version due: July 6th, 2018 - Conference: August 29th-August 31st, 2018 Radhia Cousot Young Researcher Award Since 2014, the program committee of each SAS conference selects a paper for the Radhia Cousot Young Researcher Best Paper Award, in memory of Radhia Cousot, and her fundamental contributions to static analysis, as well as being one of the main promoters and organizers of the SAS series of conferences.

Open Data are expected to play a catalyst role in the way structured information is exploited on a large scale. This offers a great potential for building innovative products and services that create new value from already collected data. It is expected to foster active citizenship (e.g., around the topics of journalism, greenhouse gas emissions, food supply-chains, smart mobility, etc.) and world-wide research according to the “fourth paradigm of science”. Published datasets are openly available on the Web. A traditional view of digitally preserving them by “pickling them and locking them away” for future use, conflicts with their evolution. There are a number of approaches and frameworks, such as the Linked Data Stack, that manage a full life-cycle of the Data Web. More specifically, these techniques are expected to tackle major issues such as the synchronisation problem (how to monitor changes), the curation problem (how to repair data imperfections and add value over time), the appraisal problem (how to assess the quality of a dataset), the citation and provenance problem (how to cite a particular version of a linked dataset, how to keep the lineage/provenance of the data), the archiving problem (how to retrieve the most recent or a particular version of a dataset), and the sustainability problem (how to support preservation at scale, ensuring long-term access). Managing the evolution and preservation of linked open datasets poses a number of challenges, mainly related to the nature of the Linked Data principles and the RDF data model. Since resources are globally interlinked, effective citation measures are required. Another challenge is to determine the consequences that changes to one LOD dataset may have implications to other datasets linked to it. The distributed, dynamic nature of LOD datasets furthermore introduces additional complexity, since external sources that are being linked to may change or become unavailable. Finally, another challenge is to identify means to afford on-going access to continuously assess the quality of such dynamic datasets. == IMPORTANT DATES == - Submission (extended&final): 19th March 2018 - Notification: 5th April 2018 - Final version: Wednesday 18th April 2018 - Workshop: June 3rd or 4th (to be announced) == TOPICS == - Management of Data Versioning * Representation and maintenance of data versions and changes (change representation, change detection) * Efficient indexing to resolve time-based queries * Efficient versioned data access (retrieval, sharing, distribution, streaming) * Languages to query versioned data stores * Benchmarking of versioning data stores * Change patterns and dynamics - Reasoning of Evolving Knowledge * Evolving patterns extraction * Predicting evolving knowledge * Reasoning for trend analysis * Reasoning for knowledge shift detection * Exploitation of reasoning results to recommendation systems - Visualization and Presentation of Evolving Knowledge * Browsing evolving knowledge * Visualizing trends * Visual summarization of knowledge sub-domains * User interfaces for evolving knowledge presentation - Data Preservation * Digital preservation for the Web of Data * Dynamics of context or background (tacit) knowledge * Design of evolution-aware Linked Data applications (for appraisal, storage management, interlinking, analysis) * Crawling - Data Quality and Provenance: * Incremental quality assessment and validation for evolving knowledge * Quality trends and prediction for changing knowledge * Automated repair based on historical context or predictions * Provenance in evolution - Ontology Evolution and Concept Drift: * Representation of evolving ontologies * Efficient access of different versions of an ontology * Detection and prediction * Ontology change impact assessment * Long lived transactions for knowledge bases == SUBMISSION GUIDELINES == We envision three types of submissions in order to cover the entire spectrum from mature research papers to novel ideas/datasets and industry technical talks: A) Research Papers (max 15 pages), presenting novel scientific research addressing the topics of the workshop.

Despite the fact that, the articulations in national dialects via web-based networking media is mounting day by day. This discovery endeavor in regional languages is rare. The usage of Hindi, the Indian National language, is also observing the similar trend. Any expression in social media contains multiple features. Discovering the hidden sentiments behind these features have wider functions. This article is the first attempt to mine the opinion at the features level in the Hindi language. The principle contribution of this article is the development of context specific corpus in the Hindi language. Based on this corpus authors extract the sentiments on one of the prominent leader of India at the feature level. Opinion mining conclusion based on present work is reproduced likewise in the subsequent election results.

This article presents a qualitative analysis of twelve cases of social-media-based knowledge sharing. The analysis reveals six categories of knowledge sharing in the social context. The analysis indicates that personalization of the organization entities and socialization of the participation on social media for knowledge sharing are two key success factors. The findings suggest that the social dimension, which has been absent from the traditional knowledge management models, broadens the scope of sustainable knowledge sharing practices in the digital society.

Money (The Citadel, Charleston, USA), Stephen J. Cohen (Microsoft Corporation, Oakton, USA) This article analyzes the properties of unknown faults in knowledge management and Big Data systems processing Big Data in real-time. These faults introduce risks and threaten the knowledge pyramid and decisions based on knowledge gleaned from volumes of complex data. The authors hypothesize that not yet encountered faults may require fault handling, an analytic model, and an architectural framework to assess and manage the faults and mitigate the risks of correlating or integrating otherwise uncorrelated Big Data, and to ensure the source pedigree, quality, set integrity, freshness, and validity of the data. New architectures, methods, and tools for handling and analyzing Big Data systems functioning in real-time will contribute to organizational knowledge and performance. System designs must mitigate faults resulting from real-time streaming processes while ensuring that variables such as synchronization, redundancy, and latency are addressed. This article concludes that with improved designs, real-time Big Data systems may continuously deliver the value of streaming Big Data.

Data were analyzed and triangulated from interviews, and focus groups from different universities and from government and university websites. Three significant factors were identified: bureaucratic management causing a lack of autonomy in decision-making, poor knowledge management systems, and weak individual absorptive capacity. The results demonstrate these three factors as a significant influence on academic staff to share absorb and create new knowledge measured by journal publication output, and graduate quality. The research findings provide insights on the Vietnamese higher education landscape in the transition from a centralized economy to a market economy.

Specifically, the article examines and tests the effects of two distinct types of interpersonal trust (affect-based trust and cognition-based trust) on willingness to seek two different types of knowledge (explicit and tacit). Using data from a survey of 143 employees from Chinese firms, the article found that both types of interpersonal trust positively related to explicit knowledge seeking, as well as tacit knowledge seeking. The article also found that cognition-based trust had a stronger relationship with seeking of both explicit and tacit knowledge than affect-based trust. Implications for future research and practice are discussed.
