It is a major international forum for academia, industry, and government to discuss research results and advancements, emerging challenges, and future trends in computer and software technologies and applications. The theme of COMPSAC 2019 is Data-Driven Intelligence for a Smarter World. In the era of “big data” there is an unprecedented increase in the amount of data collected in data warehouses. Extracting meaning and knowledge from these data is crucial for governments and businesses to support their strategic and tactical decision making. Furthermore, artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) makes it possible for machines, processing large amounts of such data, to learn and execute tasks never before accomplished. Advances in big data-related technologies are increasing rapidly. For example, virtual assistants, smart cars, and smart home devices in the emerging Internet of Things world, can, we think, make our lives easier. But despite perceived benefits of these technologies/methodologies, there are many challenges ahead. What will be the social, cultural, and economic challenges arising from these developments? What are the technical issue related, for example, to the privacy and security of data used by AI/ML systems? How might humans interact with, rely on, or even trust AI predictions or decisions emanating from these technologies? How can we prevent such data-driven intelligence from being used to make malicious decisions? J1C2 PAPERS submissions for J1C2 (Journal publication first, Conference presentation following) are based only upon peer-reviewed final papers already accepted for or published in an IEEE periodical after January, 2016.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: Algorithms & Theories for the Analysis of Event Data 2019 (ATAED workshop) Date: Mon, 25 Feb 2019 17:39:18 +0100 From: Claudio Di Ciccio <claudio.di.ciccio(a)ai.wu.ac.at> To: ipm(a)wu.ac.at Dear all, Please let me draw to your attention the following call for paper of this year’s ATAED workshop. Your valuable contributions would be highly appreciated. The workshop Algorithms & Theories for the Analysis of Event Data (ATAED 2019) is a satellite event of the 40th International Conference on Application and Theory of Petri Nets and Concurrency (PN 2019) and the 19th International Conference on Application of Concurrency to System Design (ACSD 2019). This year, the workshop is co-located with the 1st International Conference on Process Mining (ICPM 2019). The workshop aims to attract papers related to process mining, region theory and other synthesis techniques. These techniques have in common that "lower level" behavioral descriptions (event logs, sets of partial orders, transition systems, etc.) are used to create "higher level" process models (e.g., various classes of Petri nets, BPMN, or UML activity diagrams). ATAED 2019 solicits papers related to process mining and region theory. However, the scope is not limited to this. The program committee invites submission of full papers (up to 15 pages) and of short papers (up to 5 pages). Papers should be submitted as pdf-files using the Springer LNCS-format. Papers need to be submitted via Easychair.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP - Second Pre-ECIS Workshop on Blockchain Research: Beyond the Horizon Date: Mon, 25 Feb 2019 09:19:08 +0000 From: Horst Treiblmaier <Horst.Treiblmaier(a)modul.ac.at> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Second Pre-ECIS Workshop on Blockchain Research: Beyond the Horizon http://ecis2019.eu/programme/workshops-and-tutorials/second-pre-ecis-worksh… Relevant dates: Submissions due by March 15 Workshops and Tutorials will be held on June 10 and 11, at Stockholm University’s Kista campus Submissions to be sent to the following workshop organisers: trevor.clohessy(a)gmit.ie; horst.treiblmaier(a)modul.ac.at; and christian(a)sillaber.org Workshop Description The first blockchain - a peer to peer virtual currency system - was introduced in October 2008 as part of a proposal for Bitcoin by Satoshi Nakamato, that “eschewed a central authority for issuing currency, transferring ownership, and confirming transactions” (Iansiti and Lakhani, 2017). Today’s applications of such systems range from low novelty and complexity initiatives (e.g. Bitcoin payments) to high novelty and complex initiatives (e.g. self-executing contracts). There are also nuanced mature Blockchain supply chain tracking initiatives in multiple domains. However, research pertaining to Blockchain is still at an early stage, specifically from an organizational readiness perspective. Building on the success of last year’s ECIS workshop in Portsmouth, UK, the aim of this workshop is to advance the theoretical discussion on Blockchain from an organizational readiness perspective and to provide substantial feedback to authors with an interactive format. This workshop is open to both early-stage research and experienced researchers and offers networking opportunities. The workshop will take place over two half-days and will take a hybrid format encompassing paper sessions and interactive hands-on feedback. The goal of the workshop is twofold: (1) giving feedback to the authors and helping them to develop their ideas, and (2) providing networking and collaboration opportunities. Submission Requirements/Limits Workshop participants are selected based on extended abstracts. These abstracts can either be ideas or suggestions for academic papers or research collaborations. Either way, they should be early stage, but show some potential. In the abstract the authors should indicate whether they are interested in networking or simply want to get feedback on their paper. In either case, they should provide a concrete idea on the topic they are interested in. The extended abstracts should not exceed two (2) pages. The submitted abstracts should outline a research question and the method being used. There are no restrictions pertaining to the academic approach. Conceptual abstracts are fine, as are empirical (theory building and –testing) and design science papers. The workshop will be restricted to 30 participants. Accepted authors will be allocated to teams based on similar blockchain research interests and situated at roundtables. Accepted authors will be expected to read all accepted papers prior to the workshop. Initially, the authors will briefly present an overview of their research. They will then receive constructive feedback from both mentors and fellow authors. http://ecis2019.eu/programme/workshops-and-tutorials/second-pre-ecis-worksh… _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP - Discipline-Agility Balance for Software-System Development Methods - special issue Date: Sun, 24 Feb 2019 14:18:18 -0600 (CST) From: mmora(a)securenym.net To: aisworld <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> CC: roconnor(a)computing.dcu.ie, jorge.marx.gomez(a)uni-oldenburg.de, buchalc(a)vse.cz ***************** CALL FOR PAPERS ****************** SPECIAL ISSUE ON Discipline-Agility Balance for Software-System Development Methods in the International Journal of Information Technologies and Systems Approach (IJITSA) Guest Editors: ------------- Prof. Rory O’Connor, Dublin City University, Ireland Prof. Alena Buchalcevova, University of Economics, Czech Republic Prof. Manuel Mora, Autonomous University of Aguascalientes, Mexico Prof. Jorge Marx Gómez, Carl von Ossietzky Universität Oldenburg, Germany SUBMISSION DUE DATE: August 31th, 2019 OBJECTIVE OF THE SPECIAL ISSUE: This special issue pursues to improve our theoretical academic and professional applied knowledge on the convergence of disciplined and agile software-system development methodologies in a balanced way, as well as on their specific contexts for being applied separately. MOTIVATION: While Agile Software-System Development methods (such as Scrum, XP) have permeated in the Software Engineering academic and professional communities in the last 10 years (Hoda et al., 2018), they have been also criticized for trying of using them in all kind of software engineering projects (Boehm, 2002; Meyer, 2018) and by their large learning curve to be mastered (Ganesh & Thangasamy, 2012). Even inventors of the main agile methodologies have indicated subtly that agile methods do not imply easiness of utilization. For instance, Beck (1999; chapter 24) reported “XP is simple in its details, but it is hard to execute”. Similarly, Schwaber and Jeff Sutherland (2017; p. 3) “SCRUM is: lightweight, simple to understand, (but) difficult to master”. Additionally, while some studies (Schwaber, K., & Beedle, 2002; Holvitie et al., 2018) have reported that agile software-system development methods help to reduce the negative effects of technical debts, other studies have also reported (Schwanke et al., 2013; Guo et al., 2016) that agile software-system development methods are prone to introduce technical debts by “an emphasis on quick delivery and architecture and design issues” (Behutiye et al. 2017; p. 154). Consequently, balanced discipline-agility methods and approaches have been proposed by researchers (Boehm & Turner, 2004; Rodriguez-Martinez et al., 2012) and some particular adaptations (maturity models, scalation models, enhancement models) to agile methods have been also explored (Boehm & Turner, 2005; Campanelli & Parreiras, 2015; Galvan-Cruz et al., 2017; Özcan-Top & Demirors, 2019; Dingsøyr et al., 2018; 2019). Furthermore, new ISO/IEC standards like the ISO/IEC 29110 standard, pursue similar aims (Munoz et al., 2018; O'Connor, 2019). However, because both software engineering approaches relies in very separate assumptions, their straight integration is not a trivial task (Siau et al., 2015). We hypothesize that in the spectrum of types of software engineering projects, some can be better addressed with disciplined methods, others can be better with agile ones, but others can take advantages of balanced ones. Furthermore, the high dynamic context of the software-system customer demands and the emergence of highly related information technology and innovations such as cloud computing (Younas et al., 2018), internet of things (Jacobson et al., 2017), microservices architecture (Pautasso et al., 2017), and DevOps approach (Dingsøyr, T., & Lassenius, 2016) claim for a reconsideration of the adequate utilization of disciplined vs agile vs balanced software-system development methods. Nevertheless, these concerns have been few explored. Thus, in this special issue we call for conceptual frameworks which help to clarify the theoretical foundations of balanced methods, as well as empirical cases (exploratory and confirmatory ones) where evidence on success or learned lessons on failed cases of these balanced methods be reported. RECOMMENDED TOPICS: Topics to be addressed in this special issue include (but are not limited to) the following ones: * Conceptual foundations on the disciplined vs agile software-system development methodologies * Conceptual frameworks on the disciplined vs agile software-system development methodologies * Comparative reviews of disciplined vs agile software-system development methodologies * Comparative reviews of specific phases (Requirements, Architecture, Design, Build, Test, Deployment) in the disciplined vs agile software-system development methodologies * Analysis of specific suitable domains for disciplined vs agile software-system development methodologies (e-commerce, industry 4.0, analytics, education, healthcare, financial) * Analysis of specific suitable platforms for disciplined vs agile software-system development methodologies (desktop, mobile, client-server, cloud) * Emergent ICT technologies (cloud, internet of things), and approaches (microservices architecture, DevOps) and balanced methodologies * Case studies on disciplined vs agile software-system development methodologies * Survey studies on disciplined vs agile software-system development methodologies * Experimental studies on disciplined vs agile software-system development methodologies * Simulation studies on disciplined vs agile software-system development methodologies SUBMISSION PROCEDURE: Researchers and practitioners are invited to submit papers for this special theme issue on Discipline-Agility Balance for Software-System Development Methods on or before August 31th, 2019. Prospective authors should note that only original and previously unpublished articles will be considered.
