-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP - Governing Value: The Practice of Exploiting Data Value at Semantics'18 Date: Tue, 3 Jul 2018 15:16:11 +0100 From: Judie Attard <judie.attard(a)adaptcentre.ie> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org Apologies for cross-posting ****************************************************** CALL FOR PAPERS: 1st Data Value Workshop co-located at the Semantics 2018 Conference in Vienna, Austria *Governing Value: The Practice of Exploiting Data Value* *DataValue 2018** * Web: http://2018.datavalue.adaptcentre.ie *Important Dates:* 21st July 2018 (23:59 Hawaii Time) - Submission Deadline 13th August 2018 (23:59 Hawaii Time) - Notification of Acceptance 27th August 2018 (23:59 Hawaii Time) - Camera Ready ****************************************************** The Program Committee of DataValue 2018 invites submissions in the broad areas of *Data Value* and *Data Governance*. Data is increasingly being utilised and exploited by enterprises as a means to gain competitive advantage. Data provides the capabilities such as delivering services, making informed decisions, and improve financial performance. Yet, enterprises’ attention is usually focused on accumulating data as opposed to the value of the information or knowledge contained within this data. Moreover, even though information consumes immense resources and money in terms of data capture, storage, processing, and maintenance, ironically it typically receives no recognition on the financial balance sheet. Due to it’s role and characteristics in enterprises and/or businesses, data can be considered as an asset. Additionally, information has a cost and a value, like most business assets, and theoretically it can be valued in the same way an asset is. Despite this, information has as yet resisted quantitative measurement. Based on existing literature, we particularly identify the following open challenges: • How can we represent and model data value? • Can data value be quantified, and to what extent? • Can data value be predicted? • How does data governance affect data exploitation? Areas of interest include, but are not restricted to: * Data Exploitation * Data Value Chains/Networks * Data Value Models * Standards * Metrics * Use Cases * Best Practices * Data Value Quantification * Impacts * Data Governance Platforms 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: * Research Papers (max 10 pages), presenting novel scientific research addressing the topics of the workshop; * Position Papers, Demo papers and System and Dataset descriptions (max 5 pages), encouraging papers describing significant work in progress, late breaking results or ideas of the domain, as well as functional systems or datasets relevant to the community; * Industry and Use Case Presentations (max 5 pages), in which industry experts can present and discuss practical solutions, use case prototypes, best practices, etc., in any stage of implementation. ****************************************************** *Workshop Co-Chairs:* Dr. Judie Attard (Trinity College Dublin) Dr. Rob Brennan (Trinity College Dublin) Prof. Markus Helfert (Dublin City University) Dr. Pieter De Leenheer (Collibra, USA) _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

Held in conjunction with SC18, http://sc18.supercomputing.org/ Paper submission deadline: 30 July 2018 ***************************************** Call For Papers Data-intensive workflows (a.k.a. scientific workflows) are routinely used in most scientific disciplines today, especially in the context of high-performance, parallel and distributed computing. They provide a systematic way of describing a complex scientific process and rely on sophisticated workflow management systems to execute on a variety of parallel and distributed resources. With the dramatic increase of raw data volume in every domain, they play an even more critical role to assist scientists in organizing and processing their data and to leverage HPC or HTC resources, being at the interface between end-users and computing infrastructures. This workshop focuses on the many facets of data-intensive workflow management systems, ranging from actual execution to service management and the coordination and optimization of data, service and job dependencies. The workshop covers a broad range of issues in the scientific workflow lifecycle that include: data-intensive workflows representation and enactment; designing workflow composition interfaces; workflow mapping techniques to optimize the execution of the workflow for different infrastructures; workflow enactment engines that need to deal with failures in the application and execution environment; and a number of computer science problems related to scientific workflows such as semantic technologies, compiler methods, scheduling and fault detection and tolerance. The topics of the workshop include but are not limited to: Big Data analytics workflows Data-driven workflow processing (including stream-based workflows) Workflow composition, tools, and languages Workflow execution in distributed environments (including HPC, clouds, and grids) Reproducible computational research using workflows Dynamic data dependent workflow systems solutions Exascale computing with workflows In Situ Data Analytics Workflows Interactive workflows (including workflow steering) Workflow fault-tolerance and recovery techniques Workflow user environments, including portals Workflow applications and their requirements Adaptive workflows Workflow optimizations (including scheduling and energy efficiency) Performance analysis of workflows Workflow debugging Workflow provenance Workflows in constrained environments e.g. IoT, Edge computing, etc. ***************************************** Important Dates Papers due: 30 July 2018 Paper acceptance notification: 9 September 2018 E-copyright registration completed by authors: 1 October 2018 Camera-ready deadline: 1 October 2018 Submitted papers must be at most 10 pages long.

Knowledge-intensive industry and service sectors, public organizations and governmental bodies are dependent on accurate and timely information supply for efficient and high quality processes and services. Intelligent information supply has become an important issue that is characterized by just-in-time, demand-oriented and context-sensitive information. A specific focus of this year's ILOG edition will be on digitization. Digitization is a topic frequently discussed in the public both from a technological and societal perspective. The term digitization as such describes the massive use of latest development in ICT, such as Internet-of-Things, mobile communication, sensors, machine learning, self-organizing systems and big data for a fusion of real-world objects and processes, and their virtual representation. This is supposed to lead to new products and services, new business models and more efficient operations in enterprises and organizations. The digitization of businesses poses new requirements to optimized information supply and emphasizes the importance of information logistics solutions. In this context, we invite papers addressing these requirements and potential solution and we also encourage submission addressing the use semantic technologies, like ontologies, semantic nets, semantic web standards and other knowledge technologies. Such technologies and related methods have proven to be an important of information logistics and knowledge supply solutions. Many information logistics applications wouldn't be feasible without moving from data processing to also interpreting the meaning of this data. The ILOG workshop aims to bring together people who have strong interest in semantic technologies, information systems, information logistics, enterprise solutions and knowledge-based systems. We invite researchers and practitioners from both industry and academia to submit original results of their completed or ongoing projects. We encourage broad understanding of possible approaches and solutions for information logistics and applications of semantic technologies. Workshop Topics ------------------------ Information Logistics and Digitization * Challenges in information logistics originating from digitization, IoT, BD and CPS * Showcases in digitization motivating information logistics or presenting solutions * Practices of information logistics * Experience reports about and showcases of information logistical applications * Information logistics and knowledge supply in small and medium sized enterprises * Organizational implementations of information logistics and knowledge supply approaches * Internet-of-Things and information logistics * Big data applications in information logistics * Cyber-physical systems and information logistics * Enterprise Architecture Management in the context of information logistics * Literature surveys and systematic literature analyses * Concepts and architectures for intelligent information supply solutions * Modeling of information processes and user demands * Description languages for information demand and information services * Business processes in information and knowledge management * Economic effects and relevance (business cases) * Business models for just-in-time information supply * Metadata in information and knowledge management * Active information systems * Models for location and context * Time based information delivery * Concepts for self awareness of information distribution * Location transparency * Information handling in process contexts * Infrastructures and approaches for knowledge supply * eMaintenance and Information Logistics Semantic Technologies * Challenges of semantic technology use in information logistics and information systems * Literature surveys and systematic literature analyses * Business ontologies, domain ontologies and application ontologies * Application of ontologies in Enterprise Modeling * Ontology Design Patterns * Economic effects and relevance (business cases) * Ontology engineering, ontology based systems engineering * Experience reports about and show cases of ontology use * Best Practices of ontology use * Value modeling using ontologies * Ontology based competence modelling for human resource management systems Paper Submission and Proceedings ------------------------------------------------ Submissions to ILOG 2018 have to be made by using the submission system EasyChair.

Wei, National University of Singapore Ping Zhang, Syracuse University For many centuries, people of all ages, cultures, and backgrounds have played games for fun, and occasionally for profit. Gaming has become even more popular with the advent of digital gaming and Internet-based gaming. Thus, gaming has become a serious business and area of research, to the extent that academic researchers are studying gaming and its potential applications to nongaming areas. The interdisciplinary research area of applying gaming or game-like elements to non-gaming contexts is referred to as ‘gamification.’ Gamification has been a promising method in systems design to increase engagement, flow, learning, interactivity, cognitive absorption, intrinsic motivation, team performance and the like. Gamification is thus an emerging research area that is attracting increasing attention from researchers in many fields. However, this is an area of research that is particularly lacking in strong theory development, causal experimental designs, proper measurement, and an understanding of just how gaming elements aid serious systems use. Meanwhile, the extant empirical research has reported conflicting results on its effectiveness and efficiency. Thus, there is an open question as to how useful gamification is, and if the present scientific approaches to studying it are sufficiently rigorous. Moreover, we have to identify just how gamification studies could inform us on what makes us feel fun or experience enjoyment in our interactions with systems. Indeed, in 2011 MIT Professor Kevin Slavin was early to criticize business research into gamification as flawed, misleading, and full of sloppy thinking.[1] As example, he emphasized such research lacks ‘basic understanding of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation in gameplay’. Little has changed since his criticisms were first aired. To date, much of the implementation of gamification relies on a simplistic understanding that the point of gamification is ‘fun’ and the way to implement this is through readily copied elements such as ‘points,’ ‘leader boards,’ and ‘avatars’. By contrast, we argue that gamification can and should be much more than this, to reach its full potential. Instead, we see gamification as fundamentally about appealing to powerful intrinsic motivations that make us human and that are more than mere ‘fun’: altruism, mastery, competition, learning, achievement, competition, socializing, charity, closure, self-expression, love, control and so on. Hence, to date, one could argue that we know very little about how to best implement gamification to augment the use and outcomes of serious systems. We have yet to fully leverage and understand the underlying powerful intrinsic motivations that make gamification create synergies with serious systems. Information systems researchers, who long have studied ‘serious systems,’ should be among the leaders explaining how such systems can be improved via gamification. Against this compelling backdrop, this special issue will provide an outlet for further development of leading research that considers gamification research in the context of information systems and related artefacts. This special issue welcomes contributions from many lenses: design science, empirical primary or secondary data, qualitative or case studies, neuroscience / HCI studies, sociotechnical studies, organisational research, individual-level behavioural research, or review / theory building articles. However, we cannot accommodate studies primarily grounded in mathematics/algorithms, computer science or mathematical modelling. Moreover, the context must substantially deal with gamification applied to information systems. Thus, pure gaming papers are not appropriate. However, papers do not have to be empirical or include original data. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following aspects of gamified systems: · Adoption, use, and continuance of gamified technology · Augmented and virtual reality in improving organisational systems · Cross-cultural organisational issues in gamification · Crowdsourcing and gamification · Design and development of gamified information systems · Exploitation of employees and social ills of gamification · Gamified Security, Education, Training, and Awareness (SETA) programs · Gamifying e-health and mobile healthcare · Gamifying media for enhanced outcomes · Improving interactivity and engagement in systems through gamification · Improving Quantified Self 2.0 fitness and health platforms through gamification · IT governance for gamified systems · Leveraging intrinsic motivations in gamification other than ‘joy’ · Measurement and validation of novel intrinsic motivations in gamification · Mobility and gamification · Negative user effects and unintended consequences of gamification · New design artefacts of gamification · Organisation consequences of gamification design · Psychology of enjoying systems · Social impacts of gamification · Socio-technical mechanisms for fostering gamification · Storytelling and narratives to improve system engagement · The intersection of the information systems artefact and gamification · Theory building to support the study of gamified systems · Training and educational techniques for the workplace via gamification · Unexpected and novel uses of gamification · Virtual worlds for business purposes General dates: · Initial CFP and solicitation of manuscripts: June 30, 2018 to December 31, 2018 · EJIS submission system open for submissions: January 1, 2019 to February 28, 2019 · Screening decisions / send out to AEs and reviewers: March 1, 2019 to May 31, 2019 · Decisions on revisions / rejections from 1st round: June 01, 2019 to August 31, 2019 · Due date for authors to submit 2nd round of revisions: November 30, 2019 · Decision on revisions / rejections from 2nd round: December 1, 2019 to February 15, 2020 · Due date for authors to submit 3rd round of revisions (should only be minor / moderate, no major revisions at this point to make SI): May 01, 2020 · Final publishing decisions, hand-off to publisher for proofs processing: June 30, 2020 Questions?
