Call for Papers
DeHMiMoP 2018
6th International Workshop on
Declarative/Decision/Hybrid Mining and Modelling for Business Processes
https://ai.wu.ac.at/dehmimop2018/
Sydney, Australia, 10 September 2018
Co-located with BPM '18
************************************************************************
In this workshop, we are interested in the application and challenges of
decision-based, rule-based and hybrid modelling in all phases of the BPM
lifecycle (identification, discovery, analysis, redesign, implementation
and monitoring).
* Important Dates *
- June 11, 2018: Manuscript submission [EXTENDED!]
- July 4, 2018: Notification of acceptance
- August 17, 2018: Camera-ready version
- September 10, 2018: Workshop
* Scope *
Processes and business process models involve rules and decisions
describing the premises and possible outcomes of specific situations.
However, important though they are, rules and decisions are often hidden
in process flows, process activities or in the head of employees (tacit
knowledge), so that they need to be discovered using state-of-art
intelligent techniques. For knowledge-intensive processes it is common
that rules and decisions, as opposed to the process-flow, define the
allowed behaviour of a process. E.g., the major purpose of an insurance
claim process is to ensure that the rules governing the claim are being
followed and to arrive at a final decision.
While traditional imperative notations such as BPMN excel at describing
"happy paths", they turn out to be rather inadequate for modelling rules
and decisions. Imperative notations indeed tend to describe possible
behaviour as alternative, restricted flows. But encompassing all
possible variations makes imperative models cluttered and thus
impractical in highly flexible scenarios. Against this background, a new
declarative modelling paradigm has been proposed that aims to directly
capture the business rules or constraints underlying the process. The
approach has gained momentum in recent years, and several declarative
notations have been developed such as Declare, DCR Graphs, DMN, GSM and
eCRG. Lately, there has been a rapidly growing interest in hybrid
approaches, which combine the strengths of different modelling paradigms.
In this workshop, we are interested in the application and challenges of
decision- and rule-based modelling in all phases of the BPM lifecycle
(identification, discovery, analysis, redesign, implementation and
monitoring).
The purpose of the workshop is therefore:
- To examine the relationship between rules, decisions and processes,
including models; not only to model the process , but also to model the
rules and decisions.
- To enhance rule and decision mining based on process data (e.g. event
logs)
- To examine decision goals, structures , and their connection with
business processes, in order to find a good integration between rule-
and decision-based modelling and flow-based modelling.
- To examine standards (DMN, CMMN, BPMN) and their integration.
- To study how different process models can be designed to fit a
decision process, according to various optimization criteria, such as
throughput time, use of resources, etc.
- To study the integration between different modelling paradigms.
- To show best practices in separating process, rule and decision concerns.
* Topics of interest *
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
Declarative and hybrid (process modelling) approaches
- Declarative notations (Declare, DCR Graphs, GSM, eCRG, ...)
- Decision & goal notations (DMN, PDM, ...)
- Case management notations (CMMN, ...)
- Hybrid notations
- Declarative and hybrid modelling methodologies
- Process metrics
- Process maintenance and flexibility
- Human-centered and flexible processes

* Format of the Workshop *
The workshop will begin with a keynote, followed by presentations of
accepted papers. Full papers have 20 minutes for their presentations and
10 minutes for discussion and Q&A. Short papers have 15 + 5 minutes. At
the end of the workshop, there will be a closing panel discussion.
Each manuscript will be reviewed by at least three program committee
members guaranteeing that only papers presenting high quality work and
innovative research in areas relevant to the workshop theme will be
accepted.
All accepted papers will appear in the workshop proceedings. They will
be distributed electronically on USB sticks. The post-proceedings will
be published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Business Information
Processing (LNBIP) series, in a single volume dedicated to the
proceedings of all BPM workshops. During a time window after the
conference the workshop participants will be granted the free download
of the papers.
* Submission *
Prospective authors are invited to submit papers on any of the topics of
the workshop. Papers must be written in English. The following types of
submission are accepted:
- full research papers and experience papers (max. 12 pages),
- short papers (position paper, work in progress, software
demonstration; max. 6 pages).
Submissions must be prepared according to the Lecture Notes in Computer
Science (LNCS) format specified by Springer (see instructions [1]). The
title page must contain a short abstract and a list of keywords,
preferably using the list of topics given above. Papers should be
submitted electronically via EasyChair [2].

Subject: ICNC-FSKD 2018 Submission Open until 20 June: Submitting to
IEEE Xplore/Scopus/EI Compendex/ISI 2018/5/25 10:38:49 nwipsws
Date: Fri, 25 May 2018 10:38:38 +0800
From: Prof Sun <icnc-fskd-cfp(a)hnu.edu.cn>
To: gustaf.neumann(a)wu-wien.ac.at
Dear Colleague,
We cordially invite you to submit a paper to the upcoming 2018 14th
International Conference on Natural Computation, Fuzzy Systems and
Knowledge Discovery (ICNC-FSKD 2018), to be held from 28-30 July 2018 in
Huangshan, China*(submission remains open until 20 June)*.
Huangshan (literal meaning: Yellow Mountain) is a UNESCO World Heritage
Site, and one of China's major tourist destinations. It is well known
for its scenery, sunsets, peculiarly-shaped granite peaks, Huangshan
pine trees, hot springs, winter snow, and views of the clouds from
above. Huangshan is a frequent subject of traditional Chinese paintings
and literature, as well as modern photography. A famous saying goes:
"You don't need to see any more mountains after seeing 'the Five
Mountains', and you don't need to see the other four mountains after
seeing Huangshan."
As with the past ICNC-FSKD conferences, all papers in conference
proceedings will be submitted to EI Compendex, Scopus, and ISTP (ISI
Proceedings), as well as IEEE Xplore (all previous ICNC-FSKD conferences
from 2005 to 2016 have been indexed in Ei Compendex). *Extended versions
of selected best papers will appear in SCIE-indexed international
journals, including Theoretical Computer Science - Part C: Nature
Computing, Neural Computing and Applications, International Journal of
Fuzzy Systems, and Journal of Supercomputing.* ICNC-FSKD 2018 is
technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society (pending).
ICNC-FSKD is a premier international forum for scientists and
researchers to present the state of the art of data mining and
intelligent methods inspired from nature, particularly biological,
linguistic, and physical systems, with applications to computers,
circuits, systems, control, robotics, communications, and more. This is
an exciting and emerging interdisciplinary area in which a wide range of
theory and methodologies are being investigated and developed to tackle
complex and challenging problems. The registration fee of US-D490
includes proceedings, lunches, dinners, banquet, coffee breaks, and all
technical sessions.
To promote international participation of researchers from outside the
country/region where the conference is held (i.e., China’s mainland),
researchers outside of China’s mainland are encouraged to propose
invited sessions. An honorarium of US-D400 will be enjoyed by the
organizer(s) for each completed (with at least 6 registered papers)
invited session. The first author of each paper in an invited session
must not be affiliated with an organization in China’s mainland.
"(Invited Paper)" may be added below the title of each paper in the
invited sessions. Invited session organizers will solicit submissions,
conduct reviews and recommend accept/reject decisions on the submitted
papers. Invited session organizers will be able to set their own
submission and review schedules, as long as a set of recommended papers
is determined by 3 June 2018. Each invited session proposal should
include: (1) the name, bio, and contact information of each organizer of
the invited session; (2) the title and a short synopsis of the invited
session. Please send your proposal to icnc-fskd2018(a)ahu.edu.cn

techniques, Mobile Health (mHealth) security and privacy, securing
electronic health records, mitigating risks, incident response,
technical and legal issues related to the security and privacy of
patient healthcare data, including data obtained through the Internet of
Things (IoT) and cloud computing.
Topics covered by the mini-track include, but are not limited to:
* Security and privacy challenges associated with Electronic Health
Records (EHR)
* Privacy concerns for patients’ data
* Security and privacy risks associated with technologies such as cloud
computing and the Internet of Things (IoT) for healthcare

********** CALL FOR PAPERS **********
SOCIAL INFORMATION SYSTEMS MINITRACK
Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS-52)
Conference Date: January 8-11, 2019, Grand Wailea, Maui
Track: Digital and Social Media
http://hicss.hawaii.edu/tracks-52/digital-and-social-media/
********** SUBMISSION DEADLINE: JUNE 15, 2018 **********
After the World-Wide Web and e-commerce, the evolution of social
software is often referred to as the third generation of the Internet.
Various forms of social information systems have emerged since with
online communities, collaborative technologies, blogs, wikis and sites
for crowdsourcing being among the well-known. It may be observed that
Social information systems have profound implications on the way
individuals communicate, be it in private or professional interactions,
and the way economic processes are organized. For example, the
so-called "Gig-economy" posits that crowdsourcing platforms have the
power to change hierarchical coordination towards more market-like and
fluid forms where individuals bring in their competencies for specific
projects, I.e. "gigs". Social information systems are the new "glue"
among individuals outside as well as inside organizations.
>From this definition, four characteristics of social information
systems may be derived: weak ties, social production, egalitarianism
and mutual service provisioning. Weak-ties are spontaneously
established contacts between individuals that create new views and
allow combining competencies. Social Production is the creation of
artifacts, by combining the input from independent contributors without
predetermining the way to do this. Egalitarianism is the attitude of
handling individuals equally. Social information systems overcome the
separation of the service provider and consumer by introducing the
idea, that service provisioning is a mutual process of service exchange
and thus co-creation of value.
The objective of the Minitrack “Social Information Systems” is to
promote the scientific exchange on social information systems. The
Minitrack shall explore how social information systems are designed,
implemented, operated and improved. It shall also contribute to the
understanding regarding the interaction with their environment and the
impact on economic coordination structures.
In the “Social Information Systems” Minitrack we seek papers that
explore how social information systems are designed, implemented,
operated and integrated.
Possible topics are:
- New methods for developing and understanding social information systems
- Insights how communication and innovation can be fostered by social
information systems
- Impact of weak ties, social production, egalitarianism and mutual
service provisioning
- Businesses processes enabled by social information systems
- Link of social business processes and other business processes
- Modeling of social processes for social information systems
- New technologies and architectures for social information systems
- Data creation and analytics within social information systems
A fast track opportunity at "Electronic Markets - The International
Journal on Networked Business" (Impact Factor: 1.864,
http://www.electronicmarkets.org/ ) will be provided for selected
high-quality papers of the Minitrack.
