Jennex, David Croasdell Knowledge Innovation and Entrepreneurial Systems recognizes the evolving nature of work and society to being knowledge based. Competitive pressures are forcing organizations to do more with less and to leverage all they know to succeed. Knowledge systems are those systems developed to facilitate collaboration, knowledge capture, storage, transfer and flow; knowledge use; as well as to foster creativity and innovation. This track explores the many factors that influence the development, adoption, use, and success of knowledge systems. These factors include culture, measurement, governance and management, storage and communication technologies, process modeling and development. The track also looks at the societal drivers for knowledge systems including an aging work force, the need to distribute knowledge and encourage collaboration in widely dispersed organizations and societies, and competitive forces requiring organizations of all types to adapt and change rapidly. We invite papers that address these or related issues.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Cfp HICSS52 Reports from the Field: Knowledge and Learning Applications in Practice Date: Fri, 8 Jun 2018 11:32:17 -0700 From: Murray Jennex <mjennex(a)sdsu.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org, Murray Jennex <mjennex(a)sdsu.edu> Call for Papers HICSS – 52 January 8-11, 2019 Track: Knowledge Innovation and Entrepreneurial Systems Minitrack: Reports from the Field: Knowledge and Learning Applications in Practice Papers due by JUNE 15, 2018 The HICSS conference, sponsored by IEEE, brings together a broad cross-section of researchers in system sciences—including software development, social media, energy transmission, marketing systems, knowledge management and information systems. Now in its 52st year, the Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS) is one of the longest-standing continuously running scientific conferences. HICSS is the #1 IS conference in terms of citations as recorded by Google Scholar. Accepted full papers will be included in the Conference Proceedings published by the IEEE Computer Society and maintained in the IEEE Digital Library. HICSS publications account for the top 2% downloads of all IEEE conferences, and have been consistently ranked as the most cited papers in top journal publications. HICSS-52 will be held January 8-11, 2019 at Grand Wailea, Maui, Hawaii Call for Papers What is the role of knowledge management in practice? How do our theories on knowledge management and organizational learning contribute to real-world applications? While numerous journals focus exclusively on these topics, and several information systems-oriented conferences feature KM and OL-specific tracks, theory is at risk of drifting away from practice. Although not specifically documented in the literature, there is a gap between the knowledge systems research currently being conducted and the needs and practical experiences of knowledge workers. We should be aware that there is an active practitioner base of knowledge workers who develop, implement, manage, and use knowledge management systems. Likewise, there are countless practical perspectives on how to initiate, coordinate, and monitor organizational learning processes that need to have a voice. The goal of this minitrack is to provide this “bridge” between the academic and theoretical knowledge management and learning scholars that develop theory and the systems practitioner community that actually uses this knowledge on a daily basis. This mini-track encourages two directions of knowledge exchange. On the one hand, it addresses the question of how theory informs and impacts practice. On the other hand, it sheds light on how practice can influence theory. Methods can include – but are not limited to- case study and action research. Possible contributions regarding reports from the field in knowledge management may include, but are not limited to the following: 1. Best practices in using technology, processes, or personnel to promote: 1.1. Knowledge creation 1.2. Knowledge maintenance 1.3. Storage of knowledge 1.4. Retrieving knowledge 1.5. A willingness to contribute to a knowledge repository 1.6. A willingness to seek knowledge from a knowledge repository 1.7. Learning and unlearning processes in organizations 1.8. Communities of Practice 2. Specific challenges encountered in knowledge management that either: 2.1. Have been successfully been overcome in designing, implementing or using a knowledge management system 2.2. Those challenges that have defied resolution 3. Knowledge Management and strategic planning: 3.1. Strategic planning of knowledge management processes 3.2. Vision development and KM; theoretical and practical foundations of knowledge-based vision and strategy development 3.3. KM, strategy and organizational routines 4. Other challenges to the research community This minitrack welcomes all types of papers, both conceptual and empirical, using diverse methods to provide new insights into the fields of KM and organizational learning.

Therefore, a high maturity level of KM research has been achieved. However, organizational knowledge/KM initiatives are more and more faced with budget cuts and justification demands due to intense competition in today’s business environments. The influences of the rapid pace of globalization and of the ongoing liberalization of national and international markets lead to the emergence of increased pressure on existing companies. Project managers of knowledge/KM initiatives like Chief Knowledge Officers need to justify their budgets and, thus, are in need of qualitative and quantitative evidence of the initiatives’ success. In addition, ROI calculations and traditional accounting approaches do not tell an adequate story when proposing knowledge-based initiatives. This minitrack explores research into strategies, methodologies, and stories that relate to measuring this success. In addition, this minitrack will be used to explore the bodies of performance measurements that define the current state of research in measuring knowledge system, KM, organizational memory, and organizational learning success. Eventually, another purpose of this minitrack is to present research on how to value knowledge-based initiatives. Possible topics include: - Frameworks and models for assessing knowledge systems, knowledge management, and/or organizational memory systems - Methodologies and processes for measuring knowledge systems, knowledge management and/or organizational memory success and performance - Impact of knowledge use, knowledge management strategy, organization, systems, culture, and other issues on knowledge management/organizational memory success - Organizational effectiveness/efficiency due to knowledge management/organizational memory/organizational learning, knowledge and organizational memory use - Knowledge systems, knowledge management, organizational memory, and organizational learning metrics - Knowledge systems, knowledge management, organizational memory, and organizational learning success factors and key performance indicators - Benchmarking of knowledge systems/knowledge management/organizational memory initiatives - Case studies of knowledge systems, knowledge management and organizational memory success and performance measurements - Measuring knowledge systems, knowledge management and/or organizational memory performance in global organizations and globally dispersed communities - Effectiveness and/or efficiency of knowledge systems/knowledge management/organizational memory systems - Modeling and measuring the impact of social software on knowledge system/knowledge management performance - Defining knowledge systems, knowledge management and organizational memory success - Rigorous anecdotes and user stories and their theoretical basis to facilitate the value of knowledge-based initiatives - Developing grounded theory approaches to valuing knowledge-based initiatives - Understanding knowledge-based initiatives’ activities and output as service offerings and exploring their productivity - Usage, adoption and success of knowledge management methods For additional information or to submit abstracts, please contact the minitrack co-chairs: Murray Jennex (Primary Contact), San Diego State University, USA, mjennex<at>mail.sdsu.edu <http://mail.sdsu.edu> Stefan Smolnik, University of Hagen, Germany, stefan.smolnik<at>fernerhin-hagen.de <http://fernerhin-hagen.de> David Croasdell, University of Nevada, Reno, USA, davec<at>unr.edu <http://unr.edu> Important Dates for HICSS-52 Paper Submission: April 15, 2018: Paper submission begins June 15, 2018 | 11:59 pm HST: Paper submission deadline August 17, 2018: Notification of Acceptance/Rejection September 22, 2018: Deadline for authors to submit final manuscript for publication October 1, 2018: Deadline for at least one author of each paper to register for HICSS-52 For further submission information, please see the general HICSS-52 Call for Papers (http://hicss.hawaii.edu/tracks-and-minitracks/authors/). -- Mailing-Liste: wi(a)lists.kit.edu Administrator: wi-request(a)lists.kit.edu Konfiguration: https://www.lists.kit.edu/wws/info/wi

PETS presents the papers published in the current volume of the journal Proceedings on Privacy Enhancing Technologies (PoPETs). See https://petsymposium.org/2018/program.php for the list of accepted papers and the keynote by Alan Mislove. As in the last couple of years, PETS will include a one-day workshop on Hot Topics in Privacy Enhancing Technologies (HotPETs 2018). The ambition of the workshop is to foster new ideas, spirited debates, as well as controversial perspectives on privacy (and lack thereof). See https://petsymposium.org/2018/hotpets.php for more details. See the general program https://petsymposium.org/2018/program.php for a list of talks and the keynote by Joris van Hoboken. On the Monday July 23, the day before PETS, the Open Day for Privacy, Transparency, and Decentralization (OPERANDI 2018) takes place. The Open Day will feature a mix of panels, lightning talks, and a poster session, attracting young researchers, activists, hackers, and students interested in technology, society, ethics, and policy aspects of privacy and privacy technologies. See https://petsymposium.org/2018/workshop.php for more details.

In recent years, we have moved from standard forms of reasoning, such as action sequence executabilty and future effects (projection), to more sophisticated forms of reasoning which share many commonalities with other fields of CS, from verification in Formal Methods to process modeling and analysis in Business Process Management. Moreover, connections with planning are being extended to other forms of synthesis, such as generalized planning, MDPs/RL, supervisory control, reactive synthesis, etc. Papers from these various areas are dispersed across many conferences, which makes it difficult to follow the general direction of the field. Drawing upon a successful format followed in other fields (e.g., http://highlights-conference.org), the workshop aims to offer a wide picture of the latest research in the field and a chance to meet everybody in the community. GoalThis workshop aims to bring together researchers working in a variety of areas of AI and CS -- including KR, planning, RL, verification, and synthesis -- to foster these emerging directions of reasoning about actions and processes. FormatWe invite submissions for presentations, not papers. We welcome a presentation on your favorite recent technical work, position paper, or open problems with clear and concise formulations of current challenges. The contributed talks will be 15-minutes long. All sessions will be designed to promote interaction between the attendees by holding frequent discussion periods for analysis and critique. The workshop will also have panel sessions on important emerging issues for the field and longer keynote talks. SubmissionsSubmissions should have a single main author, who will be the speaker, and each speaker can have no more than one submission. Each submission must be at most 2-pages long and may refer to joint work with other collaborators to be credited in the presentation. There are no formal proceedings and we encourage submissions of work presented or submitted elsewhere (no copyright transfer is required, only permission to post the abstract on the workshop site). Topics of interest include but are not limited to: Reasoning about actions Representing and reasoning about processes Hierarchical abstractions of action models Generalized planning Verification and Synthesis of high level agent behaviors Agent behavior control Logic-based representation, action theories, temporal logics, logics of programs Stochastic representation, MDPs and Non-Markovian Decision Processes Learning dynamic behaviors, RL Partial observability, incomplete information, uncertainty Reasoning about beliefs, goals and intentions First-person vs third person view Plan, intention, and activity recognition Transparency, predictability and accountability of agents’ behaviors Both theoretical and application-oriented contributions are welcome.Papers can be submitted via EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=actionskr18 Important DatesSubmission July 21, 2018Notification August 25, 2018 Workshop October 28 & 29, 2018 Invited Talks To be announced.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] [SUSPICIOUS] Call for Papers - DSIC’18 - Montenegro Date: Thu, 7 Jun 2018 19:40:39 +0100 From: ML <marialemos72(a)gmail.com> Reply-To: digsiencemail(a)gmail.com To: AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org DSIC’18 – The 2018 International Conference on Digital Science 19 – 21 October 2018, Montenegro https://digscience.org/ <https://digscience.org/> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SCOPE DSIC’18 – The 2018 International Conference on Digital Science, to be held at Montenegro, 19 – 21 October 2018, is an international forum for researchers and practitioners to present and discuss the most recent innovations, trends, results, experiences and concerns in the several perspectives of Digital Science. The main idea of this Conference is that the world of science is unified and united allowing all scientists/practitioners to be able to think, analyze and generalize their thoughts. The concept of this conference is that all scientists have the ability to think, analyze, and extend knowledge using digital technology, and that technology allows researchers to break the barriers between disciplines. DSIC aims efficiently disseminate original research results in natural, social, art&humanities sciences. This Conference enables fast dissemination so conference participants can publish their papers in print and electronic format, which is then made available worldwide and accessible by millions of researchers. DSIC covers publications on many multidisciplinaire levels but each accepted paper might be presented in the appropriate thematic Conference session of narrow specialization. The conference organizers believe that all scientists selected to present their work are important in their own right, therefore additional keynote speakers are unnecessary. We are pleased to invite you to submit your papers to DSIC’18. Papers must be written in English. All submissions will be reviewed on the basis of relevance, originality, importance and clarity. CONFERENCE TOPICS We invite submissions that should be related with one or more of the following topics, but are not limited to: 1. Digital Art & Humanities 2. Digital Agriculture & Food Technology/strong> 3. Digital Economics 4. Digital Engineering 5. Digital Enviromental Sciences 6. Digital Finance, Business & Banking 7. Digital Medicine, Pharma & Public Health 8. Digital Health Care, Hospitals & Rehabilitation 9. Digital Law 10. Digital Public Administration 11. Digital Technology & Applied Sciences 12. Digital Virtual Reality 13. Digital Education 14. Digital Media SUBMISSION AND DECISION You may submit your paper online using OpenConf Peer Review & Conference Management System <http://www.aistic.org/ds2018/oc18/openconf.php>. Submitted papers (until 8-page limit) must comply with the formatting rules for Proceedings in Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing Series (see Instructions for Authors at Springer Website <https://www.springer.com/us/authors-editors/conference-proceedings/conferen…> or the requested format (download a DOC example <http://www.icits.me/springerformat.doc>) and be written in English, must not have been published before, not be under review for any other conference or publication and not include any information leading to the authors’ identification. Therefore, the authors’ names, affiliations and bibliographic references should not be included in the version for evaluation by the Scientific Committee. This information should only be included in the camera-ready version, saved in Word and also in PDF format. All papers will be subjected to a “double-blind review” by at least two Scientific Committee members. The «blind» review means that the authors’ names, affiliations and bibliographic references should not be included in the version for evaluation by the Scientific Committee or/and Reviewers. This information should only be included in the camera-ready version, saved in Word and/or in PDF format. Based on Scientific Committee evaluation, a paper can be rejected or accepted by the Conference Chairs. Each accepted paper might be presented in the appropriate thematic session of narrow specialization. In the later case, it can be accepted as paper or poster. The authors of accepted papers will have 15 minutes to present their work in a Conference Work or Internet Session; approximately 5 minutes of discussion will follow each presentation. PUBLICATION AND INDEXING To ensure that an accepted paper will be published, at least one of the authors must be fully registered by the 01st of August 2018, and the paper must comply with the suggested layout and page-limit (until 8 pages). Additionally, all recommended changes must be addressed by the authors before they submit the camera-ready version. No more than one paper per registration will be published. An extra fee must be paid for publication of additional papers, with a maximum of one additional paper per registration. One registration permits only the participation of one author in the conference. Accepted Papers written in English and registered will be published in Proceedings by Springer in a book of the Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing <http://www.springer.com/series/11156>series, and then submitted for indexation by Web of Science, SCOPUS, and will be available in the SpringerLink Digital Library <http://link.springer.com/>.
