Fwd: [AISWorld] CFP: 10th Temporal Web Analytics Workshop (TempWeb), Taipei, Taiwan, April 20/21, 2020

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP: 10th Temporal Web Analytics Workshop (TempWeb), Taipei, Taiwan, April 20/21, 2020 Date: Thu, 21 Nov 2019 20:46:11 +0100 From: Marc Spaniol <marc.spaniol(a)unicaen.fr> To: AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org *************************************************************** CALL FOR PAPERS *************************************************************** *************************************************************** in conjunction with The Web Conference *************************************************************** 10th Temporal Web Analytics Workshop (TempWeb 2020) in conjunction with The Web Conference 2020 April 20/21, Taipei, Taiwan http://www.temporalweb.net/ As in previous years, the objective of this workshop is to provide a venue for researchers of all domains (IE/IR, Web mining, etc.) where the temporal dimension opens an entirely new range of challenges and possibilities. The workshop’s ambition is to keep shaping a community of interest on the research challenges and possibilities resulting from the introduction of the time dimension in web analysis. The maturity of the Web, the emergence of large-scale repositories of web material, makes this very timely and a growing number of research projects and services are emerging that have this focus in common. Having a dedicated workshop will help, we believe, to take a rich and cross-domain approach to this continuous research challenge with a strong focus on the temporal dimension. TempWeb focuses on investigating infrastructures, scalable methods, and innovative software for aggregating, querying, and analyzing heterogeneous data at Internet scale. Emphasis will be given to temporal data analysis along the time dimension for web data that has been collected over extended time periods. A major challenge in this regard is the sheer size of the data it exposes and the ability to make sense of it in a useful and meaningful manner for its users. It is worth noting that this trend of using big data to make inferences is not specific to web content analytics. A now-common strategy in post-genomic biology is to measure, quantitatively, the action of all (or as many as possible) of the genes at the level of the transcriptome, proteome, metabolome and phenotype, and to use computerised methods to infer gene function via various kinds of pattern recognition techniques. On the Web, to a large extent, we have also reached this point. Web scale data analytics therefore needs to develop infrastructures and extended analytical tools to make sense of these. Workshop topics of TempWeb therefore include, but are not limited to following: • Web scale data analytics • Temporal Web analytics • Distributed data analytics • Web science • Web dynamics • Data quality metrics • Web spam evolution • Content evolution on the Web • Systematic exploitation of Web archives • Large scale data storage • Large scale data processing • Time aware Web archiving • Data aggregation • Web trends • Topic mining • Terminology evolution • Community detection and evolution Important Dates (tentative): - Paper submission deadline: January 13, 2020 - Notification of acceptance: Jan 27, 2020 - Camera-ready copy deadline: Feb 17, 2020 - Workshop: April 20/21, 2020 Please post your submission (up to 6 pages for research papers or 2 pages for tool presentations and position papers) using the ACM template: http://www.acm.org/publications/authors/submissions at: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=tempweb2020 Workshop Team PC-Chairs and Organizers: Marc Spaniol (University of Caen Normandy, France) Ricardo Baeza-Yates (NTENT & Northeastern Univ. at SV, USA; UPF, Catalonia; UChile) Julien Masanès (ProductChain, France) Program Committee (tentative): Eytan Adar (University of Michigan, USA) Céline Alec (University of Caen Normandy, France) Omar Alonso (Microsoft Bing, USA) Ralitsa Angelova (Google, Switzerland) Srikanta Bedathur (IBM Delhi, India) Andras A.

The general topic of the workshop is the social and personal computing for web-supported learning communities. Web-based learning is moving from centralized, institution-based systems to a decentralized and informal creation and sharing of knowledge. Social software (e.g., blogs, wikis, social bookmarking systems, media sharing services) is increasingly being used for e-learning purposes, helping to create novel learning experiences and knowledge. In the world of pervasive Internet, learners are also evolving: the so-called "digital natives" want to be in constant communication with their peers, they expect an individualized instruction and a personalized learning environment, which automatically adapt to their individual needs. The challenge in this context is to provide intelligent and adaptive support for collaborative learning, taking into consideration the individual differences between learners. This workshop deals with current research on the interplay between collaboration and personalization issues for supporting intelligent learning environments. Its aim is to provide a forum for discussing new trends and initiatives in this area, including research about the planning, development, application, and evaluation of intelligent learning environments, where people can learn together in a personalized way through social interaction with other learners. The workshop is targeted at academic researchers, developers, educationists and practitioners interested in innovative uses of social media and adaptation techniques for the advancement of intelligent learning environments. The proposed field is interdisciplinary and very dynamic, taking into account the recent advent of Web 2.0 and ubiquitous personalization, and it is hoped to attract a large audience. TOPICS OF INTEREST ================== The workshop welcomes submissions covering aspects of collaboration, social interactions, adaptivity and personalization in technology enhanced learning, particularly related to issues about: * Social learning environments * Theory and modeling of social computing in education * Web 2.0 tools for collaborative learning * Personal learning environments * Lifelong learning networks * Virtual spaces for learning communities * Social networks analysis and mining * Computer-supported collaborative learning * Personalized and adaptive learning * Adaptation methods and techniques for groups of learners * Intelligent learner and group modeling * Collaborative filtering and recommendations for learners * Game-based social learning * Personalized mobile learning applications * Cloud-based social learning * Intelligent agent technology for social learning * Metadata, folksonomies and tagging * Semantic web and ontologies for personalized learning * Cognitive, motivational and affective aspects for personalization * Practice and experience sharing PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION ================================== The workshop papers should be formatted according to the Springer AISC template (ftp://ftp.springernature.com/cs-proceeding/llncs/word/splnproc1703.zip). The length of the manuscript should be 4-6 pages for short papers and 8 pages for full papers. Papers should be submitted in PDF format, through the Easychair system (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mis4tel20 - please select "Workshop on Social and Personal Computing for Web-Supported Learning Communities"). All accepted workshop papers will be included in MIS4TEL 2020 Proceedings, published by Springer in Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing series. IMPORTANT DATES =============== Abstract submission: January 24, 2020 Full paper submission: January 31, 2020 Acceptance notification: March 9, 2020 Registration and camera-ready papers: March 30, 2020 Conference dates: June 17-19, 2020 WORKSHOP CHAIRS ================ Elvira Popescu - University of Craiova, Romania Sabine Graf - Athabasca University, Canada Please refer to the workshop website (http://software.ucv.ro/~epopescu/spel2020) for more information and contact us at: popescu_elvira(a)software.ucv.ro or sabineg(a)athabascau.ca for any inquiry. _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

More specifically, > the aim is to exploit a heterogeneous and distributed computational and > storage environment to optimize the execution of modern applications > requiring high computational resources while reducing the delay and > defining constraints on where and how data can be moved and stored. In > fact, big volumes of data are produced every day at the edge of the network > and their analysis requires to either move the computation to the data or > to move the data to the computation. For this reason, a co-design between > data and computation management is required. An example could be to define > the amount of data to be moved with respect to the complexity of required > data analysis. In some cases, this data movement is not possible or limited > due to privacy restrictions, which do not allow data collected at the edge > to be stored on cloud facilities maintained by third-party actors. In other > cases, the volume of data moved through the network introduces severe > delays in the processing and techniques to reduce the volume by > pre-processing and filtering them directly where the data are generated > should be enacted to reduce this delay. At the same time, any > transformation of the data might affect their utility for the final > customer, thus, also the quality of the data should be taken into account. > Moreover, the data collected by IoT and sensors at the edge is often > subject to quality issues that might be detected and solved before using > them for analytics and decision making. > > TOPICS > This special issue aims to gather recent work on the topic of data and > computation management in fog computing. Topics of particular interest > include, but are not limited to: > - Management and control of Fog Computing resources and applications > - Data and computation management architectures in Fog Computing > - Data-driven offloading computation > - Security and privacy issues in data and computation management in Fog > Computing > - Data movement, data duplication, and data distribution > - Energy efficiency in Fog Computing through data and computation movement > - Data quality assessment and improvement in Fog Computing > - Data processing in heterogeneous and/or distributed environments > - Internet of Things and Fog Computing > - Smart monitoring and anomaly detection for Fog resources and applications > - Simulation tools for Fog Computing > - Data processing platforms for Fog Computing > - Experiment-driven research on data and processing placement > > ------------------------------------------------------ > SUBMISSION GUIDELINES > All submissions must be original and may not be under review by another > publication. > The limit length of accepted papers should be 15 pages (including abstract, > figures and references). > Link to the paper submission page: > https://www.evise.com/profile/api/navigate/FGCS > When submitting the paper choose the issue: "VSI:Data & Computation in > Fog". > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Guest editors and contacts: > Monica Vitali, Politecnico di Milano and Umea University, > monica.vitali(a)polimi.it > Pierluigi Plebani, Politecnico di Milano, pierluigi.plebani(a)polimi.it > David Bermbach, Technische Universitat Berlin, db(a)mcc.tu-berlin.de > Erik Elmroth, Umea University and Elastisys, elmroth(a)cs.umu.se > > > ------------------------------ > > Message: 8 > Date: Thu, 21 Nov 2019 08:53:49 -0500 > From: Shuyuan Mary Ho <anomaly.detector(a)gmail.com> > To: AISWorld <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> > Subject: [AISWorld] Teaching Faculty at Florida State University > School of Information > Message-ID: > < > CANwO0-WUneyRQXVPczY4kahuFMQ--99gntmOCe_4-fffsp8zag(a)mail.gmail.com> > Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" > > TEACHING FACULTY I, 12 Month Salaried > > The School of Information at Florida State University is seeking to fill > one (1) visiting 12 month teaching faculty position in Information > Technology, at the Teaching Faculty I level.

Artificial intelligence (AI) will be the > cornerstone technology enabling smart cities to evolve into an organic > ecosystem. Particularly, developments in Internet of Things (IoT), AI, > intelligent IoT devices, smart sensing boosted by AI, and IoT big data > mining with AI are driving this transformation. This book aims to present > the latest research in the design and development of smart cities and > services. Specifically, this book discusses the concept, framework, and > supporting systems for smart city construction. It incorporates a large > number of the current theoretical concepts to analyze smart city evaluation > index, comparison and ranking, combining with a large number of practical > cases to introduce the development and application of artificial > intelligence in the construction, management and service of smart city. The > role and mechanism of smart city in urban governance, planning and policy > is > also discussed. > > > > Objective > > > > The bright future of smart city has motivated many scientific and > engineering challenges for both academia and industry, in order to fully > exploit the capabilities and benefits brought by IoT and AI. Some important > areas are smart city IT infrastructure planning; framework, protocol, > algorithm for smart sensing and data mining; novel intelligent hardware > platform or software framework; smart city modeling; security and energy > efficiency. The objective of this book is to provide a platform for > researchers to present their recent work on how IoT and AI can work > together > to enable a real smart city. Thus, this book targets recent research > findings in AI applications for Smart City. It discusses state of the art > techniques in urban infrastructure design, construction, operation, > maintenance, and management. > > > > Target Audience > > > > This book will be a tremendous resource for both academia and industry.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] 2nd CALL FOR PAPERS Special Issue on Co-design of Data and Computation Management in Fog Computing Date: Thu, 21 Nov 2019 11:48:20 +0100 From: Monica Vitali <monica.vitali(a)polimi.it> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org 2nd CALL FOR PAPERS Special Issue on Co-design of Data and Computation Management in Fog Computing to be published in the Future Generation Computer Systems (FGCS) Journal CFP: https://www.journals.elsevier.com/future-generation-computer-systems/call-f… ------------------------------------------------------ IMPORTANT DATES - Submission deadline: January 31st, 2020 - Authors' Notification: April 30th, 2020 - Revised version deadline: June 12th, 2020 - Final decision: July 31st, 2020 ------------------------------------------------------ OVERVIEW The term Fog Computing has been introduced to identify a paradigm for designing applications able to exploit both the (virtually) infinite resources on the cloud and the limited edge computation power by operating also on the devices living in between these two sides. More specifically, the aim is to exploit a heterogeneous and distributed computational and storage environment to optimize the execution of modern applications requiring high computational resources while reducing the delay and defining constraints on where and how data can be moved and stored. In fact, big volumes of data are produced every day at the edge of the network and their analysis requires to either move the computation to the data or to move the data to the computation. For this reason, a co-design between data and computation management is required. An example could be to define the amount of data to be moved with respect to the complexity of required data analysis. In some cases, this data movement is not possible or limited due to privacy restrictions, which do not allow data collected at the edge to be stored on cloud facilities maintained by third-party actors. In other cases, the volume of data moved through the network introduces severe delays in the processing and techniques to reduce the volume by pre-processing and filtering them directly where the data are generated should be enacted to reduce this delay. At the same time, any transformation of the data might affect their utility for the final customer, thus, also the quality of the data should be taken into account. Moreover, the data collected by IoT and sensors at the edge is often subject to quality issues that might be detected and solved before using them for analytics and decision making. TOPICS This special issue aims to gather recent work on the topic of data and computation management in fog computing. Topics of particular interest include, but are not limited to: - Management and control of Fog Computing resources and applications - Data and computation management architectures in Fog Computing - Data-driven offloading computation - Security and privacy issues in data and computation management in Fog Computing - Data movement, data duplication, and data distribution - Energy efficiency in Fog Computing through data and computation movement - Data quality assessment and improvement in Fog Computing - Data processing in heterogeneous and/or distributed environments - Internet of Things and Fog Computing - Smart monitoring and anomaly detection for Fog resources and applications - Simulation tools for Fog Computing - Data processing platforms for Fog Computing - Experiment-driven research on data and processing placement ------------------------------------------------------ SUBMISSION GUIDELINES All submissions must be original and may not be under review by another publication. The limit length of accepted papers should be 15 pages (including abstract, figures and references). Link to the paper submission page: https://www.evise.com/profile/api/navigate/FGCS When submitting the paper choose the issue: "VSI:Data & Computation in Fog". ------------------------------------------------------ Guest editors and contacts: Monica Vitali, Politecnico di Milano and Umea University, monica.vitali(a)polimi.it Pierluigi Plebani, Politecnico di Milano, pierluigi.plebani(a)polimi.it David Bermbach, Technische Universitat Berlin, db(a)mcc.tu-berlin.de Erik Elmroth, Umea University and Elastisys, elmroth(a)cs.umu.se _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP: ICALT 2020 - Track 2: APTeL (Adaptive and Personalised Technology-Enhanced Learning) Date: Mon, 18 Nov 2019 15:08:41 +0200 (EET) From: Elvira Popescu <popescu_elvira(a)software.ucv.ro> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org CALL FOR PAPERS The 20th IEEE International Conference on Advanced Learning Technologies – ICALT 2020 Tartu, Estonia, July 6-9, 2020 https://icalt2020.ut.ee * Submission Deadline: January 12, 2020 Track 2: Adaptive and Personalised Technology-Enhanced Learning (APTeL@ICALT2020) Track Description and Topics of Interest Advanced learning technologies keep transforming what people learn, how they learn it and the ways they access learning opportunities in formal and informal contexts. As the educational landscape evolves, learning gets more structured around flexible curricula that have to accommodate the needs of diverse student audiences, and educational organizations which offer services for accessing educational content and resources through a variety of platforms, devices, and learning contexts. In this framework, adapting the educational experience to learners' preferences, needs and background becomes critical. The challenge concerns providing an alternative to the "one-size-fits-all" approach in designing learning technologies, taking into consideration individual differences among learners and the various contexts within which learning will take place. The aim is to maximize learner satisfaction, learning retention and efficiency of the learning process. Adaptation can take place both at individual and group/community levels, whereby intelligent and adaptive technologies are integrated to empower socially-grounded learning experiences. APTeL@ICALT2020 explores different dimensions of adaptation and personalization, including learner modeling and adaptation mechanisms, as well as techniques, designs, implementation approaches, and experimental validations. A main issue that is expected to be addressed in this forum is the impact of adaptive and personalised learning environments in real educational (formal or informal) contexts, focusing on how these environments can be integrated in the educational process in order to enhance and promote efficient personalised learning cycles. "What can we adapt to?", "What can be adapted?", "How can we collect and process relevant data?", "What is the impact of adaptation?", "How technology-enhanced adaptive environments may promote personalized learning in real contexts?", "How are learners profiled and how do they perceive personalization?", "How can we support educators develop personalized content and resources?", "How can interaction data collection, analysis and/or visualization be adapted to identify learner needs or enhance personalized learning experiences?", "How can learner communities benefit from personalisation?" are some important questions that need to be addressed. Topics of interest cover various adaptivity and personalization issues in technology enhanced learning, in particular: * Personal learning environments (PLE) * Intelligent learner and group modeling * Adaptive learning methods and techniques * Adaptive collaborative learning * Personalized mobile learning applications * Adaptive educational games * Adaptivity and personalization in MOOCs * Cognitive, motivational and affective aspects for personalization * Measurement and evaluation in adaptive learning environments * Practice and experience sharing * Learning and teaching with adaptive and personalised learning environments * Personalized learning design * Personalized learning/teaching analytics * Personalized support for communities of learners * Context-aware models for personalized learning * Adaptive learning in pervasive computing environments Track Program Chairs Elvira Popescu, University of Craiova, Romania [Coordinator] Yacine Atif, University of Skovde, Sweden Sabine Graf, Athabasca University, Canada Sharon I-Han Hsiao, Arizona State University, USA Kyparisia Papanikolaou, School of Pedagogical & Technological Education, Greece The expected types of submissions include: Full paper: 5 pages Short paper: 3 pages Posters: 2 pages The ICALT 2020 Author Guidelines can be found at: https://icalt2020.ut.ee/author-guidelines _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org
