Fwd: [AISWorld] Special Issue on Edge Computing Optimization Using Artificial Intelligence Methods
by Gustaf Neumann 07 Oct '20

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Special Issue on Edge Computing Optimization Using Artificial Intelligence Methods Date: Tue, 6 Oct 2020 09:21:46 +0000 From: Naercio Magaia <ndmagaia(a)fc.ul.pt> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> CALL FOR PAPERS Special Issue on "Edge Computing Optimization Using Artificial Intelligence Methods" MDPI IoT Journal Dear Colleagues, The growing importance of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the ubiquitous high capacity provided by 5G technologies have brought the specter of massive quantities of data being generated and/or consumed by sensors, actuators, and smart devices. Such massive amounts of data require considerable processing power, which is available in the cloud. However, cloud-based computation and data delivery models do not allow the stringent quality of service (QoS) guarantees to be efficiently harnessed. The latter is due to the number of hops of wired networks between the data endpoints and the cloud, which leads to a significant increase in latency, which may dramatically affect real-time control and other critical systems. Moreover, forwarding all the data generated by such devices directly to the cloud may devour the network bandwidth, leading to congestion. Therefore, it is necessary that critical processing to be hosted closer to the endpoint devices, i.e., closer to the sources and sinks of the data so that data can be processed and filtered out by the time it reaches the cloud. This can be achieved through Edge Computing (EC). Efficient, scalable, and QoS-aware placement of IoT data processing jobs in EC resources is a complex optimization problem and, currently, an active research topic. As new jobs are created, they have to be assigned computational resources dynamically, matching job requirements with the cost, reliability, location (and mobility), besides the current availability of the resources. Less critical or demanding communication jobs may be offloaded to the cloud. The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) methods to jointly tackle the problem of job placement optimization, including jobs belonging to AI-based data analytics software, constitute currently active research topics addressed by this Special Issue. For this Special Issue, original scientific articles are welcome on the following as well as closely related topics: - AI-based algorithms to optimize job placement in EC - AI software architectures favoring distributed computing job placement in EC resources (e.g., Distributed Deep Neural Network architectures) - AI-based mechanisms supporting open EC markets leveraging the participation of third-party computing resources opportunistically (e.g., parked autonomous vehicles) - AI-based methods to optimize mobile EC resources' placement (e.g., EC capable drones) Special Issue Website: https://www.mdpi.com/journal/IoT/special_issues/edge_computing_AI This special issue is now open for submission, until 30 June 2021.

Fwd: [AISWorld] Call for papers BISE: Special issue on Process Mining at the Enterprise Level
by Gustaf Neumann 06 Oct '20

06 Oct '20

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Call for papers BISE: Special issue on Process Mining at the Enterprise Level Date: Tue, 6 Oct 2020 13:24:01 +0200 From: Hajo Reijers <h.a.reijers(a)uu.nl> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org Call for papers: Process Mining at the Enterprise Level ( http://www.bise-journal.com/?p=1829) Special Issue of Business & Information Systems Engineering ( http://www.bise-journal.com/) Theme Process Mining is a novel technology that helps enterprises to better understand their business processes. Over the last 20 years, there has been intensive research into various process mining techniques. These techniques support the automatic discovery of business process models from event log data, the checking of conformance between specified and observed behavior, the identification of various variants of a business process, non-compliant behavior, performance-relevant insights, and so forth. Research on process mining has mostly focused on devising new or better algorithms (see van der Aalst 2016; Augusto et al. 2019). There are a few exceptions, among others the following. Van der Aalst et al. (2007) were the first ones to discuss process mining from the perspective of applications in industrial practice. Jans et al. (2014) applied process mining techniques to enrich audit evidence during a financial statement audit. Vom Brocke and Mendling (2018) present various applications of process mining in hospitals, insurances, software usability analysis, and logistics. In recent years, process mining has found its way into enterprise software (Dumas et al. 2019), and has, thus, become available for companies in their daily practice of business process management. Companies like Celonis, Fluxicon, Signavio, and Software AG are among the roughly 20 companies that Gartner monitors. Kerremans (2019) from Gartner identifies business process improvement, auditing and compliance, process automation, digital transformation, and IT operations (in order of decreasing importance) as practical use cases for process mining in enterprise settings. Some contributions have been made towards understanding process mining from an enterprise perspective. For instance, van Eck et al. (2015) and Aguirre et al. (2017) describe methodologies how process mining projects can be conducted and Maruster and van Beest (2009) provide a methodology how business processes can be redesigned with the help of process mining. Examples of domain-specific proposals in healthcare are Rebuge and Ferreira (2012) and Fernandez-Llatas et al. (2015). Grisold et al. (2020) have introduced process mining as a strategy of inquiry to study in organizational science and to study organizational change in specific. Mans et al. (2013) have identified success factors for process mining projects. However, what is largely missing so far is research on how enterprises adopt process mining technology and how they integrate it into their information systems landscape. Invited Contributions The ambition behind this special issue is to fill the described research gap. We invite original contributions that investigate how enterprises actually adopt and use process mining software. We are specifically interested in submissions that make use of the extensive set of theories that have been discussed in information systems research and organizational science. These contributions are expected to utilize empirical research methods such as case studies, surveys, experiments (to name but a few) towards leveraging insights into how and why enterprises succeed or fail when adopting and using process mining software. Topics that are welcomed include, but are not limited to the following: - How is process mining used and adopted at the enterprise level? - What is the potential of using various types of data in process mining? - How does process mining complement other approaches and technologies? - How do enterprises build suitable data sets? - What are the implications for management of using process mining? - Which governance structures do enterprises develop for process mining? - How do enterprises calculate the business case of process mining? - How does process mining change organizational culture? - How does process mining change the required skill sets of tool users? - How is process mining integrated into the IT landscape? - How is process mining integrated with existing business process methodologies? - How is process mining adopted in specific application domains, e.g., accounting, health, finance, HR, tax, etc.? - How is process mining used to support digital transformation initiatives? - What strategic implications for enterprises emerge from process mining usage? - What is the business impact of adopting process mining? - What is the overall business value of process mining? - What is the transformative nature of process mining at the enterprise level? Submission Guidelines Please submit papers by 1 Nov 2020 at the latest via the journal’s online submission system (http://www.editorialmanager.com/buis/). Please observe the instructions regarding the format and size of contributions to Business & Information Systems Engineering (BISE). Papers should adhere to the submission general BISE author guidelines ( http://www.bise-journal.com/author_guidelines).

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Call for Papers in the IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management journal Date: Mon, 5 Oct 2020 09:12:36 +0000 From: Chintan Amrit <c.amrit(a)uva.nl> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Call for Papers Special Issue on “Collaboration and Innovation Dynamics in Software Ecosystems” in the IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management journal Software ecosystems are very important socio-technical systems that mould IT infrastructure all over the world. Many software ecosystems are open source software systems, while others are more hybrid with proprietary components. Identifying the innovative modules of the ecosystem can help both developers and software module managers decide which modules are more interesting to adopt. The collaboration of developers in such ecosystems is also essential for the health of the ecosystem. Therefore, one needs to study how the developers and maintainers interact to understand the evolution of the different modules in the ecosystem. Therefore, in this special issue we ask: How does one identify innovation in large Software Ecosystems? What kinds of collaboration exist in large software ecosystems? How does collaboration impact the innovation dynamics in the ecosystem? The objective of this Special Issue of IEEE TEM is to bring together the state-of-the-art research contributions that address key aspects of software ecosystem analysis with a focus on collaboration and innovation dynamics. All submitted articles will be peer-reviewed and selected based on their quality and relevance to the theme of this Special Section. The topics of interests include, but are not limited to: * Innovation dynamics in Software Ecosystem * Mining repositories for analysing collaboration and innovation dynamics * Metrics identifying the health of large software ecosystems * Symbiosis in software ecosystems * Collaboration and coordination in software ecosystems * Leadership in open innovation environments and innovative software ecosystems * Influencers in software ecosystem * Cooperation and coevolution in software ecosystems * Understanding life cycle of the component modules of the software ecosystems * Big graph/Network analysis for software ecosystems We welcome both review papers as well as new and original research contributions. Please see the following Research Perspective article for a brief overview of the field: M. den Besten, C. Amrit, A. Capiluppi and G. Robles, "Collaboration and Innovation Dynamics in Software Ecosystems: A Technology Management Research Perspective," in IEEE Transactions on Engineering Management, doi: 10.1109/TEM.2020.3015969. (early access: https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9195451) Notes for Prospective Authors Submitted papers should not have been previously published nor be currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. Conference papers may only be submitted if the paper has been completely re-written and if appropriate written permissions have been obtained from any copyright holders of the original paper.
