Subject: [AISWorld] CCC 2020 - 1st CFP
Date: Fri, 24 Jan 2020 08:25:59 +0200
From: Kyriakos Kritikos <kritikos(a)ics.forth.gr>
To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org
****** CALL FOR PAPERS - SPECIAL TRACK ******
CCC: Cross-Cloud Computing
along with
BUSTECH 2020, The Tenth International Conference on Business Intelligence
and Technology
https://www.iaria.org/conferences2020/BUSTECH20.html
April 26, 2020 - April 30, 2020 - France
****** SCOPE ******
Multi-cloud computing promises to deliver various benefits, which include
the avoidance of vendor lock-in, better proximity to customers and improved
application performance. To this end, we currently see a trend towards
developing and managing multi-cloud applications which is also evident from
the advent of proprietary, multi-cloud platforms like Anthos from Google.
However, such platforms are still not mature enough to cover the whole
lifecycle of multi-cloud applications. Further, cross-cloud computing
represents another promising opportunity enabling applications to be
managed across different clouds which comes with the extra benefits of
application performance optimisation, extended security level establishment
and enhanced flexibility for application adaptation. Unfortunately, with
the exceptions of some prototype research platforms, cross-cloud
applications are not facilitated at all during their development and
provisioning. Last but not least, we also observe additional obstacles,
which include the inability to deal with multiple levels of abstraction as
well as the negligence of high-level business requirements during the whole
application management. These obstacles need to be overcome to realise the
vision of optimal cross-cloud applications which can change cloud services
on demand to better sustain the service levels that have been promised.
In this respect, there is currently a research gap towards designing,
realising and managing cross-cloud applications. CCC special track of
BUSTECH foresees the submission of both theoretical and technical
contributions which attempt to close this gap as well as promote new ideas
to further boost the adoption of multi- & cross-cloud computing and to even
evolve it in a more promising form.
****** TOPICS OF INTEREST ******
Topics include, but not limited to:
• Cross-cloud application design
• Cross-cloud application deployment
• Cross-cloud application monitoring
• Cross-cloud application adaptation
• Cross-cloud application modelling
• Cross-cloud service orchestration

Subject: [AISWorld] Special Issue Guest Editorship: Library Hi Tech
Date: Fri, 24 Jan 2020 02:03:59 +0000
From: KAI WING KEVIN HO <kevinkho(a)triton.uog.edu>
To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org>
Library Hi Tech (LHT) is an international, double-blind peer-reviewed,
SSCI-listed journal (2018 Impact Factor: 1.256) that welcomes empirical,
conceptual and methodological contributions on any topics relevant to
the broad disciplines of information and communication technologies.
However, LHT is particularly concerned with information management,
technologies, and systems that support libraries and cultural memory,
education and the academy, health and medicine, government/public
sectors, and non-government organizations (NGOs). Current coverage of
LHT can be found on the following webpage
(https://www.emeraldgrouppublishing.com/products/journals/news_story.htm?id=…).
Submissions
LHT invites full research and conceptual papers, as well as scholarly
viewpoints and review articles (normally between 4,000 to 8,000 words).
LHT will also occasionally publish shorter research notes (under 4,000
words) on current work of excellent potential. Authors must make a
request for reviewing of research notes, if required, in the cover
letter. Interested authors please visit our author guidelines page for
further information
(https://www.emeraldgrouppublishing.com/products/journals/author_guidelines.…).
Special issue guest editorship
Prospective guest editors should submit a written proposal to the
co-editors via email that incorporates the following elements:
* A title for the special issue;
* Rationales for the special issue topic that positions its significance
in the literature;
* Some illustrative topics that papers could focus upon;
* A draft of the actual call for papers;
* A plan for how authors will be recruited (which can include authors
who have already been approached informally);
* The credentials of the guest editors; and
* A proposed timeline towards publication.
Guest editors will be responsible for publicising the call for papers
and for generating submissions for the special issue. It is expected
that a special issue will include an introductory essay written by the
editor and normally at least six contributed papers. The introductory
paper will be subject to an independent LHT editorial review by the
co-editors.
The guest editors will also be responsible for all stages of the review
process in terms of identifying and inviting reviewers and making
preliminary decisions on submissions. The review process will be managed
online through the ScholarOne Manuscripts system.
To prevent any perception of conflicts of interest, it is LHT’s policy
that Guest Editors cannot submit more than one paper to their special
issue as authors or co-authors, which will be handled by the Co-editors.
All inquiries should be directed to the attention of one of the two
co-editors:

industry applications in areas such as education and healthcare among
others. Thanks to a constantly improving technology, VR and AR are on
the path to become the future of computing. However, some limitations,
such as high device cost, social acceptance and safety concerns, may
negatively impact this new technology acceptance.
Some possible topics to consider would be:
• Social acceptance of VR and AR
• VR and AR as training platform and in education
• Information sharing through VR and AR
• VR and AR in entertainment
• Social and safety concerns in VR and AR
• Financial impact of VR and AR

computing algorithms; - New hybrid quantum-classical solutions; -
Application of quantum computing to current problems in computational
science; - Quantum algorithms in machine learning and big data; -
Integration of quantum computation with supercomputing infrastructure; -
Quantum computing hardware; - Quantum error correction; - Advanced
methods for quantum software engineering; - Novel numerical methods
supporting quantum information theory; - Environments and frameworks for
quantum computing; - Quantum simulators; - Cloud-based support for
quantum computing; - Dedicated services required for quantum computing;
- Novel approaches to quantum games; - Quantum networks / quantum
Internet; - Quantum programming languages; - Creative tools for quantum
computation education: video games, interactive art; - Challenging
applications in industry and academia;
Papers
We cordially invite you to submit a paper presenting the results of
original research in the area of quantum computing. Papers of up to 14
pages, written in English and formatted according to the Springer LNCS

Deadline for papers
Workshop
March 1, 2020
June 23, 2020
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). The program committee invites submission of full
papers (up to 15 pages) and of short papers (up to 5 pages).
Papers should be submitted via easychair
<https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ataed2020>as pdf-files using
the Springer LNCS-format
<http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs/lncs+authors>.
