-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] The 12th IEEE International Conference on Service Oriented Computing and Applications (SOCA 2019) Date: Fri, 31 May 2019 09:11:25 +0000 From: Naercio Magaia <ndmagaia(a)fc.ul.pt> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> --------------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS --------------------------------- The 12th IEEE International Conference on Service Oriented Computing and Applications (SOCA 2019) Kaohsiung, Taiwan November 18 - 21, 2019 https://www.cs.ccu.edu.tw/~conference/soca2019 Dear Colleagues: We cordially invite you to share your latest research results related to big data analytics and intelligence at the IEEE SOCA 2019 conference. Service-oriented computing (SOC) is considered today a key enabler for the development of robust and high-quality intelligent Internet-scale distributed applications. Extensive research and development in the past few years has pushed SOC technology into state-of-the-art applications in emerging areas such as Cloud computing, Internet-of-Things (IoT), Machine-to-Machine (M2M) communication, Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs), Mobile-Edge Computing, Social computing as well as mobile and enterprise systems. However, many of the critical components on building reliable, robust, and user-centric, cloud-based service-oriented architecture applications and systems are still open for research. Hence, it is time to face new service-oriented architecture (SOA) research opportunities by addressing new research challenges on emerging applications domains like smart cities, smart logistics, smart factories and e-Health, just to mention a few. Many of the service components are deployed on resource-limited embedded systems and are performance sensitive; others are deployed on cloud servers providing highly parallel services and on edge servers in the middle of resource-limited systems and high-end servers. Edge servers and clouds are connected through various types of networks, including emerging network function virtualization services. These components are part of complex applications and systems that span multiple execution environments. Their capabilities are increasingly being managed and (re)configured via emerging software-defined and elasticity mechanisms. In addition, they have to interact with humans in order to obtain useful human-sensing data and solve complex problems. Thus, on the one hand, SOC may provide effective solutions for managing the ever-increasing complexity while meeting the challenging requirements of services on largely distributed, heterogeneous and dynamic resource environments. On the other hand, the exploitation of emerging trends in such environments to build SOC applications and systems for large-scale service-based systems is an open research challenge. The 2019 IEEE International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing and Applications (SOCA 2019) provides an international forum for researchers from multiple disciplines to exchange and share their experiences, ideas, and latest research results on all aspects of service-oriented computing. The conference includes three days of parallel-track program, special-topic workshops, keynotes and tutorials, and panel discussion.

According to the Symantec Annual Threat Report published for 2018, the total number of Web threats were more than 1 Billion, the 400% more than the 2014. With over 4 billion of mobile phone users worldwide as well as billions of under-protected Internet of Things (IoT) devices, there has been a dramatic rise in cybercrime globally perpetrated at various levels. Many cyber-attack preventions focus on systems and technology, without addressing user-related issues. Users have been identified as one of the major security weaknesses in today’s technologies, as they may be unaware that their behaviour while interacting with a system may have security consequences. The user interface is where the users interact with the computer systems. It is where the user’s intention transforms into the system operation. It is where the semantic gap arises. And this is the aspect that needs more attention to further limit the effectiveness of cyber attacks. From the cybersecurity analysts perspective, advanced interactive visualization techniques may be useful to describe the features that characterize malware application and thus help the in detecting malicious apps. *********************************************************** TOPICS OF INTEREST Topics include, but are not limited to: - Ethical, psychological, sociological and economic issues of security and privacy solutions - Foundations of usable security and privacy - Human factors in phishing attacks - Human factors related to Cybersecurity - Lessons learned from the design, development, use, or evaluation of security and privacy systems - Mental models of attackers and defenders - New applications of existing models or technology - Reports of previously published studies and experiments, even failed experiences, focusing on the lessons learned from such experiences - Testing of new or existing solutions for usable security and privacy research - Usable security and privacy for professionals, like network administrators and developers - Usable security/privacy evaluation of existing and/or proposed solutions based, for instance, on laboratory studies, field studies, longitudinal studies - Usable security/privacy of the Internet of Things (IoT) - Visualization techniques supporting cybersecurity experts and non-experts *********************************************************** TARGET AUDIENCE AND EXPECTED OUTCOMES This workshop is open to everyone who is interested in topics related to Cyber attacks, with an emphasis on the aspects related to Human-Computer Interaction. We invite participants to present position papers addressing human-related cybersecurity issues. We are also interested in methods, theories and tools for managing cyber attacks. The contributions accepted for presentation in the workshop will be published in the conference adjunct proceedings with an ISBN. During the workshop we also expect to discuss how to disseminate individual contributions to the community in the form of a special issue in an HCI journal. *********************************************************** WORKSHOP FORMAT The workshop will be one-day long. A keynote statement will be presented by the organizers first, then presentations contributed by participants will follow including proposals for examples to be used as case studies. In the second part, participants will discuss the main points raised and get involved in group design activities and report to the final plenary session. Based on the lessons learned, participants will be invited to draft an agenda of future work that can be accomplished. *********************************************************** SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS In order to attend the workshop, participants are invited to submit short papers (no longer than 4 pages, including an abstract of up to 150 words) reporting original academic or industrial research relevant to the workshop's theme.

The BPM literature provides high level definitions of what business processes are, as well as a number of different business process modelling languages. Nonetheless, a clear characterisation of what a business process is, what its key elements are, what sets business processes apart from other process entities, and a clear ontological analysis of business process model development are still missing. The goal of this workshop is to explore these missing aspects and to foster a discussion on the ontological foundations in business process modelling. onBPM aims at investigating the nature of business processes, what distinguishes and characterizes it from other kinds of process, the role of time and temporal representation in business process models, the dependence between real-world business processes and the corresponding models, the “implicit” business process elements that should be taken into consideration in the models, and the impact of ontological decisions in the modelling aspects. The workshop invites two types of submissions: * full papers, maximum page limit 12 pagesincluding bibliography in the LNCS format. * short papers, exactly 6 pages including bibliography in the LNCS format. Short papers are particularly suitable for presenting preliminary ideas, discussions and challenges on the topics of the workshop. ---------------------------------- KEY DATES * Workshop papers submission deadline:May 31, 2019 * Workshop papers notification deadline:June 28, 2019 * Workshop camera-ready papers deadline:July 12, 2019 * Workshops onBPM:September 2, 2019 ------------------------------------------ ORGANISERS: Greta Adamo, Fondazione Bruno Kessler and University of Genoa, Italy Stefano Borgo, ISTC-CNR, Italy Sergio de Cesare, University of Westminster, United Kingdom Chiara Ghidini, Fondazione Bruno Kessler, Italy Nicola Guarino, ISTC-CNR, Italy ------------------------------------------ PROGRAMME COMMITTEE: Banu Aysolmaz, School of Business and Economics, Maastricht University Cristina Baroglio, Dipartimento di Informatica, Università di Torino Fabiano Dalpiaz, Department of Information and Computing Sciences, Utrecht University Frederik Gailly, Business Informatics, Faculty of Economics and Business Administration, Ghent University Laura Genga, Department of Mathematics and Computer Science, Eindhoven University of Technology Giancarlo Guizzardi, Faculty of Computer Science, Free University of Bozen-Bolzano Jennifer Horkoff, Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Chalmers and the University of Gothenburg Marcello La Rosa, School of Computing and Information Systems, Melbourne School of Engineering, The University of Melbourne Riichiro Mizoguchi, School of Knowledge Science, Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology Marco Montali, KRDB Research Centre, Free University of Bozen-Bolzano Luise Pufahl, Hasso Plattner Institute, University of Potsdam Hajo A.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] 2nd CFP: SPeL 2019 (12th International Workshop on Social and Personal Computing for Web-Supported Learning Communities) Date: Thu, 30 May 2019 18:14:23 +0300 (EEST) From: Elvira Popescu <popescu_elvira(a)software.ucv.ro> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org ================================================================== SPeL 2019 12th International Workshop on Social and Personal Computing for Web-Supported Learning Communities http://software.ucv.ro/~epopescu/spel2019 In conjunction with SETE 2019 (4th International Symposium on Emerging Technologies for Education) & ICWL 2019 (18th International Conference on Web-based Learning) http://icwl-sete.org/ 23-25 September 2019 Magdeburg, Germany * Paper submission deadline: June 21, 2019 (preceded by a mandatory abstract submission by June 14) * All accepted workshop papers will be published by Springer in Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. ================================================================== MOTIVATION =========== The workshop follows the previous SPeL 2008, SPeL 2009, SPeL 2010, SPeL 2011, DULP & SPeL 2012, SPeL 2013, SPeL 2014, SPeL 2015, SPeL 2016, SPeL 2017 and SPeL 2018 workshops, held in conjunction with the SAINT 2008 conference, WI/IAT 2009 conference, DEXA 2010 conference, ICWL 2011 conference, ICALT 2012 conference, ICSTCC 2013 conference, ICWL 2014 conference, ICSLE 2015 conference, ICWL & SETE 2016 conferences, ICWL & SETE 2017 conferences and MIS4TEL 2018 conference respectively. 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, social networks) 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 LNCS Authors Guidelines (http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0). The length of the manuscript should not exceed 6 pages for short papers and 10 pages for full papers. Papers should be submitted in PDF format, through the Easychair system: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=spel2019. All accepted workshop papers will be included in SETE 2019 post-conference proceedings, published by Springer in Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. IMPORTANT DATES =============== Abstract submission: June 14, 2019 Full paper submission: June 21, 2019 Acceptance notification: July 15, 2019 Registration and camera-ready papers: August 5, 2019 Conference dates: September 23-25, 2019 WORKSHOP CHAIRS ================ Elvira Popescu - University of Craiova, Romania Sabine Graf - Athabasca University, Canada Please refer to the workshop website (http://software.ucv.ro/~epopescu/spel2019) 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

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Unintended, negative consequences of IT implementations in healthcare (Final call for papers HICSS-53, Maui) Date: Thu, 30 May 2019 09:59:41 -0700 From: Virginia Ilie <ilie.virginia(a)gmail.com> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org Dear colleagues, We are offering a new mini-track this year at HICSS - *Unintended, negative consequences of IT implementations in healthcare -* and invite you to submit your work. Research on the *positive aspects* of Information Technology (IT) implementations in healthcare abounds. Electronic medical record systems (EMR) and other advanced IT solutions have the potential to reduce healthcare costs, increase quality of care, standardize best practices and allow physicians and patients access to inter-operable medical records globally. However, there are many potential *negative aspects* and consequences associated with complex IT implementations in healthcare that remain under-researched. While some challenges are technological in nature, others are internal, organizational as well as external, regulatory. *2020 Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS-53)* January 7-10, 2020, Grand Wailea, Maui, Hawaii, USA *http://hicss.hawaii.edu/ <http://hicss.hawaii.edu/>* *Track: Information Technology in Healthcare* *Mini-track**: Unintended, negative consequences of IT implementations in healthcare* In the era of smart devices and usable interfaces, many commercially available EMRs offer a user experience with often sub-optimal usability. Medical practitioners work under severe time constraints and are much less understanding and forgiving of system limitations. Patients also expect flawless access to their medical records. This mini-track calls for research associated with any *unintended or negative aspects *of IT implementations in the healthcare domain at various levels of analysis, individual, organizational or societal. Such research should help inform both academics and practitioners of unintended negative consequences from complex IT implementations and introduce possible solutions to alleviate such impacts. We seek research on topics such as: · Misuse of EMR systems by clinical staff, patients or other entities. · Lack of innovation in EMR interface design. · Impacts on clinical workflows and provider-to-provider communication patterns. · System design issues and associated consequences. · Challenges in obtaining complete information at the point of care or information overload. · Increased difficulties in information sharing among providers or healthcare entities. · Dehumanizing of the patient-provider interaction. · User workarounds and new types of medical errors. · Physician/nurse/patient dissatisfaction with clinical systems. · Security attacks and hospital data hacking and ransoming. · Patient privacy issues. · HIPAA violations and recommendations to stay compliant. · Increased hospital costs. · Challenges for smaller clinical practices in selecting and working with an EMR vendor. · Abandonment of costly EMR projects. · Any other unintended or negative EMR impacts. Completed papers or research in progress with all types of research methodologies are welcome.

We invite you to submit your paper to our minitrack . A call for papers is attached. http://home.ubalt.edu/ntsbagga/hicss_53.htm Regards, Anil Aggarwal University of Baltimore USA Doug Vogel Harbin Institute of technology PRC Yuko SJ Murayama Tsuda College Japan CALL FOR PAPERS FOR the Mini-track Emerging Issues in e-collaboration Distributed Group Decision-Making: Opportunities and Challenges <http://home.ubalt.edu/ntsbagga/hicss_53.htm> (Part of the Collaboration Systems and Technology track ) HAWAII INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SYSTEM SCIENCES (HICSS-53<http://www.hicss.org/>) January 7-10, 2020 Grand Wailea Resorts Maui Given the current turbulent state of world economy, outsourcing is coming under tremendous pressure. Companies are no longer providing long-term contracts but are renewing them based on deliverables from outsourced companies. This is putting tremendous pressure on teams to deliver quality product on time. Team adaptability and team configuration are becoming crucial to meet deadlines. Teams must be able to adapt quickly to the changing environment. Agile teams adapt and deliver quickly and provide maximum customer satisfaction. By definition, however, agile teams must be co-located. Can distributed teams be agile and adaptable? This requires careful team configuration. Distributed teams face many challenges of time, location, infrastructure, language, customs, socialization and politics. This is further compounded in globally distributed teams by diversity, nationality and cultural issues. As old issue are resolved, new challenges emerge that require knowledge from multiple disciplines such as information systems, social sciences, international management, leadership and political science. It is almost impossible for one individual to have expertise in so many domains, which makes this a very challenging but ultimately rewarding collaborative area of research. Given the richness and research potential of this area, it is essential to brainstorm and bring diverse points of view to develop underlying theory and frameworks. The mini track will attempt to accomplish these objectives. The mini track will address emerging issue such as diversity, culture, adaptability and agility related to teams in distributed group decision making, as well as the underlying theories of group dynamics, coordination, communications and decision-making in distributed environments, in creation of competitive advantage. Examples of topics in the discussion of globally distributed decision making mini-track will include the following (but are not limited to): · eCollaboration in distributed teams · Fake news impact on ecollaboration · Swift team collaboration · Sub groups impact on eCollaboration · Big data collaboration · E-government(s) inter- , intra-collaboration · Collaboration through crowdsourcing · Disaster management in distributed teams · Delivering health services through collaboration · Economics of distributed decision making in the clouds · Trust and distrust as motivator in distributed decision making · Can agile teams be globally distributed? · Agile/Adaptable team configuration in globally distributed teams · The “e (internet)” to “m (mobile)” transformation of globally distributed teams · Communication and coordination in globally distributed teams · Diversity issues in globally distributed teams · Customer satisfaction, performance and “trust” building in globally distributed teams · Synchronous and asynchronous decision making in globally distributed teams · Comparison of issues across internal, inter-, intra and offshore distributed teams · Turbulent economy and its impact on outsourcing · Models of globally distributed agile/adaptable teams · Knowledge creation, transfer and integration across globally distributed teams · Leadership/cohesiveness issues in globally distributed teams · Issues related to functional and dysfunctional globally distributed teams · Security, privacy and risk associated with globally distributed teams · Case Studies (success/failures) related to decision making by globally distributed teams Contact Information for Mini-Track Chair: Dr. A.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP: 10th International Conference on Learning Analytics & Knowledge (LAK20), March 23-27, 2020, Frankfurt, Germany. Date: Tue, 28 May 2019 21:27:21 +0000 From: Vitomir Kovanovic <Vitomir.Kovanovic(a)unisa.edu.au> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Apologies for cross-posting Call for papers: The 10th International Conference on Learning Analytics & Knowledge (LAK20) Celebrating 10 years of LAK: Shaping the future of the field 23-27 March 2020, Frankfurt, Germany https://lak20.solaresearch.org The 2020 edition of The International Conference on Learning Analytics & Knowledge (LAK20) will take place in Frankfurt, Germany. LAK20 is organised by the Society for Learning Analytics Research (SoLAR) and hosted by Frankfurt Goethe-University in Germany with support from many European partners. LAK20 is a collaborative effort by learning analytics researchers and practitioners to celebrate and promote the achievements of the learning analytics community over the past ten years and to look forward to what lies ahead. The tenth anniversary of the LAK conference celebrates the past successes of the learning analytics community and poses new questions and challenges for the field. The theme for this year is "Shaping the future of the field" and focuses on thinking how we can advance learning analytics and drive its development over the next ten years and beyond. LAK conference is intended for both researchers and practitioners. We invite both researchers and practitioners of learning analytics to come and join a proactive dialogue around the future of learning analytics and its practical adoption. We further extend our invite to educators, leaders, administrators, government and industry professionals interested in the field of learning analytics and related disciplines. Conference theme and topics We welcome submissions from both research and practice, covering different theoretical, methodological, empirical and technical contributions to learning analytics field. Specifically, this year, we invite contributors to think about the implications and potential impact of the presented work for the next 10 years. In their contributions, we encourage authors to address some of the following questions: 1. What are the practical and scholarly implications of the presented work for the next ten years? 2. What are the challenges of the presented work we need to address to improve its impact in the next ten years? 3. How can the presented work be practically implemented and adopted? We also explicitly encourage research that validates, replicates and examines the generalisability of previously published findings, as well as the aspects of practical adoption of the existing learning analytics methods and approaches. Finally, we also invite authors to submit dedicated short research paper submissions (see below for details) that explicitly address the theme of this year's conference. Some of the topics of interest include, (but are not limited) are: Capturing Learning & Teaching: * Finding evidence of learning: Studies that identify and explain useful data for analysing, understanding and optimising learning and teaching. * Assessing student learning: Studies that assess learning progress through the computational analysis of learner actions or artefacts. * Analytical and methodological approaches: Studies that introduce analytical techniques, methods, and tools for capturing and modelling student learning. * Technological infrastructures for data storage and sharing: Proposals of technical and methodological procedures to store, share and preserve learning and teaching traces. Understanding Learning & Teaching: * Data-informed learning theories: Proposals of new learning/teaching theories or revisions/reinterpretations of existing theories based on large-scale data analysis. * Insights into specific learning processes: Studies to understand particular aspects of a learning/teaching process through the use of data science techniques. * Learning and teaching modelling: Creating mathematical, statistical or computational models of a learning/teaching process, including its actors and context. * Systematic reviews: Studies that provide a systematic and methodological synthesis of the available evidence in an area of learning analytics. Impacting Learning & Teaching: * Providing decision support and feedback: Studies that evaluate the impact of feedback or decision-support systems based on learning analytics (e.g., dashboards, early-alert systems, automated messages). * Practical evaluations of learning analytics efforts: Empirical evidence about the effectiveness of learning analytics implementations or educational initiatives guided by learning analytics. * Personalised and adaptive learning: Studies that evaluate the effectiveness and impact of adaptive technologies based on learning analytics. Implementing change in Learning & Teaching: * Ethical issues around learning analytics: Analysis of issues and approaches to the lawful and ethical capture and use of educational data traces; tackling unintended bias and value judgements in the selection of data and algorithms; perspectives and methods for value-sensitive, participatory design that empowers stakeholders. * Learning analytics adoption: Discussions and evaluations of strategies to promote and embed learning analytics initiatives in educational institutions and learning organisations. * Learning analytics strategies for scalability: Discussions and evaluations of strategies to scale the capture and analysis of information at the program, institution or national level; critical reflections on organisational structures that promote analytics innovation and impact in an institution. Conference tracks The conference has three different tracks with different types of submissions. For more information about each track, see the submission guidelines page. 1. Research track The focus of the research track is on advancing scholarly knowledge in the field of learning analytics through rigorous reports of learning analytics research studies. The primary audience includes academics, doctoral students, postdoctoral researchers and other types of educational research staff working in different capacities on learning analytics research projects. Submission types for the research track are: * Full research papers (10 pages, ACM proceedings template) include a clearly explained substantial conceptual, technical or empirical contribution. The scope of the paper must be placed appropriately with respect to the current state of the field, and the contribution should be clearly described. This includes the conceptual or theoretical aspects at the foundation of the contribution, an explanation of the technical setting (tools used, how are they integrated into the contribution), analysis, and results. * Short research papers (6 pages, ACM proceedings template) can address on-going work, which may include a briefly described theoretical underpinning, an initial proposal or rationale for a technical solution, and preliminary results, with consideration of stakeholder engagement issues. We also invite short papers that explicitly address the theme of this year's conference by reflecting on past, present, and future research foci in the field of learning analytics, along with reflections on the role which LAK has played in shaping our research agendas. * Research posters (3 pages, SoLAR companion proceedings template) represent a concise report of recent findings or other types of innovative work not ready to be submitted as a full or short research paper. Poster presentations are part of the LAK Poster & Demo session, and authors are given a physical board to present and discuss their projects with delegates. Alternatively, a poster submission may be work that you prefer to present interactively. 2. Practitioner track The practitioner track is complementary to the research track and brings real-world experiences of adoption of learning analytics systems in education. Learning analytics practitioners include 1) policymakers, project managers, instructional technologists, analysts, learning designers and other non-research staff, 2) developers, designers, analysts, and other representatives from commercial and industrial entities, non-profit organisations, and government bodies. Submissions for the practitioner track have a unique format which emphasises practical aspects of project implementations. More details around submission formats and preparing your practitioner submission will be available on LAK20 website. All accepted submissions to the practitioner track will be published in the LAK20 Companion Proceedings and archived on the SoLAR website. Submission types for practitioner track: * Practitioner reports (4 pages, SoLAR companion proceedings template) include accounts and findings that stem from practical experience in implementing learning analytics projects. Practitioner reports are presented alongside research track submissions as part of the main conference. Some of the goals of practitioner presentations are to 1) contribute to the conversation between researchers and practitioners around adoption and implementation of learning analytics, 2) provide insights from practice around factors affording or constraining learning analytics adoption and implementation, and 3) present effective learning analytics adoption strategies and approaches. * Practitioner posters (2 pages, SoLAR companion proceedings template) represent a concise description of a practical learning analytics project implementation which may not be ready to be presented as a practitioner report. Posters are presented during the LAK Poster & Demo session, and authors are given a physical board to present posters and discuss their projects with delegates. This type of submission is also prefered in cases where interactive presentation is more suitable for the particular project. * Practitioner interactive demos (200 words abstract in SoLAR companion proceedings template + 5 min video) provide opportunities to communicate interactive learning analytics tools. Interactive demonstrations are part of the LAK Poster & Demo session, and presenters are given table space and demonstrate their latest learning analytics projects, tools, and systems. Use demos to communicate innovative user interface designs, visualisations, or other novel functionality that tackles a real user problem. Tools may be at an early concept demonstrator stage or relatively mature, all the way through to products. While LAK encourages participation from commercial analytics partners, interactive demos should be built around actual field experience, results, and feedback. Submissions for conceptual products or for products that have not been used by instructors and/or students are unlikely to be accepted. 3. Pre-conference event track The focus of pre-conference events is on providing space for new and emerging ideas in learning analytics and their development. Events can have either research or practical focus and can be structured in the way which best serves their particular purpose. The types of submissions for the pre-conference event track are: * Workshops (4 pages, SoLAR companion proceedings template) provide an efficient forum for community building, sharing of perspectives, and idea generation for specific and emerging research topics or viewpoints. Proposals should be explicit regarding the kind of activity participants should expect, for example, from interactive/generative participatory sessions to mini-conference or symposium sessions. * Tutorials (4 pages, SoLAR companion proceedings template) aim to educate stakeholders on a specific learning analytics topic or stakeholder perspective. Proposals should be clear what the need is for particular knowledge, target audience and their prior knowledge, and the intended learning outcomes. Doctoral consortium The doctoral consortium is a day-long workshop designed to support emerging scholars in learning analytics by helping them develop productive approaches to studying the intersection of theory, data, and practice. Doctoral Consortium participants will be given the opportunity to present, discuss, and receive feedback on their research in an interdisciplinary and supportive atmosphere, as well as build their professional network with leading researchers. More details will be available on LAK20 website around submission lengths and formats of the different types of submissions. Review process LAK20 will use a double-blind peer review process for all submissions except doctoral consortium (as they include a letter of reference from the principal supervisor) and demos. An important aspect of this year's review process is that LAK20 will have a rebuttal phase for full and short research papers in which authors will be given five days to respond to remarks and comments raised by reviewers in a maximum of 500 words. Rebuttals are optional, and there is no requirement to respond. Authors should keep in mind that papers are being evaluated as submitted and thus, responses should not propose new results or restructuring of the presentation. Thus, rebuttals should focus on answering specific questions raised by reviewers (if any) and providing clarifications and justifications to reviewers. Finally, the conference timeline allows for rejected submissions to be re-submitted in revised form as workshop papers. Proceedings publication Accepted full and short research papers will be included in the LAK20 conference proceedings published and archived by ACM. Other types of submissions (research posters, workshops, tutorials, and practitioner track submissions) will be included in the open access LAK companion proceedings, archived on SoLAR's website. Please note at least one of the authors must register for the conference by the Early bird deadline before the paper can be included in the ACM Proceedings or LAK Companion Proceedings. Important dates Note: all dates are 23:59 GMT-12 (AOE Timezone<https://www.worldtimeserver.com/time-zones/aoe/>) Submission deadlines: * 1 Oct 2019: Deadline for full and short research papers, practitioner reports, and workshop/tutorial proposal submissions * 14 Oct 2019: Deadline for doctoral consortium submissions * 1 Nov 2019: Deadline for research and practitioner posters and interactive demo submissions * 15 Nov 2019: Deadline for full and short research paper rebuttal (submissions open 8 Nov 2019) submissions * 15 Dec 2019: Deadline for workshop paper submissions (submissions open 1 Nov 2019) * 20 Dec 2019: Deadline for camera-ready versions of all accepted submissions Acceptance notifications: * 21 Oct 2019: Notification of acceptance for workshops and tutorials * 15 Nov 2019: Notification of acceptance for doctoral consortium * 1 Dec 2019: Notification of acceptance for full and short research papers, practitioner reports, posters/demos * 5 Jan 2019: Notification of acceptance for workshop papers (papers submitted to accepted workshops) Conference and registration dates: * 20 Jan 2020: Early-bird registration closes * 23-27 Mar 2019: LAK20 conference, Frankfurt, Germany Further information Visit http://lak20.solaresearch.org for further details about the conference venue, organisers, keynotes, topics, submission guidelines and review process.
