-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [WI] [CFP] 1st Workshop on Cyber Forensics and Advanced Threat Investigations Date: Fri, 29 May 2020 17:43:42 +0100 From: CiberSeguridad UK <scholarshipchile(a)gmail.com> Reply-To: CiberSeguridad UK <scholarshipchile(a)gmail.com> To: wi(a)lists.kit.edu 1st International Workshop on Cyber Forensics and Advanced Threat Investigations in Emerging Networks (CFATI 2020) https://cfati.conceptechint.net/index.html in conjunction with EUSPN-2020 conference Nov 2 - 5, 2020 , Madeira, Portugal Important dates Paper Submission: 30th June, 2020 Acceptance Notification: 22nd Aug, 2020 Final Manuscript Due: 30th Aug, 2020 Scope of the workshop: The evolve of networked technologies, such as the internet of things and cyber-physical systems, possess challenges base on the highly limited capabilities of their infrastructure devices and the type of data that can be processed by these devices. Complicated efforts are required in suitable and timely manners against any detected threats. Moreover, new frameworks are required to collect and preserve potential evidential data in suitable and timely manners as well. To guarantee proper cyber-defenses and strategies against the expanding landscape of criminal activities as well as rapidly advancing network technologies such as SDN or 5G and 6G. There is a growing need for new methodologies, tools, and techniques, capable of extracting, preserving, and analyzing different evidence trails in various networked services and devices such as routers, firewalls, web proxies, and network monitoring tools. Additionally, there is also a growing need for research in new systems that are capable of analyzing network traffic, netflows, and systems logs. Satisfying these demands will aid in reconstructing the timeline of the cyber-crime/attack under investigation and, possibly, the identification of the potential actor(s). The main motivation for this Workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners working on cyber forensics and threat investigations for emerging networks to disseminate current research issues and advances. Original technical papers describing new, state-of-the-art research, will be considered. The Workshop welcomes submissions that evaluate existing research results by reproducing experiments. The aim of this workshop is to provide insight for the discussion of the major research challenges and achievements on various topics of interest. CFATI 2020 will be held in conjunction with the 11th International Conference on Emerging Ubiquitous Systems and Pervasive Networks (EUSPN 2020) which is co-organized on November 2-5, 2020, Madeira, Portugal. Papers on practical as well as on theoretical topics and problems in various topics related to cyber forensics and threat investigations are invited, with special emphasis on novel techniques and tools to collect data from networked devices and services in emerging networks (such as the ones can be found in cyber-physical systems and Internet of things). Topics include (but are not limited to): · Advanced threat investigations, forensic and anti-forensic techniques · Cooperative and distributed forensics and threat investigations · Data exfiltration techniques from networked devices and services (e.g. cyber-physical systems, and Internet-of-Things) · Attack detection, traceback, and attribution in SDN, 5G, and 6G · Methods for reconstruction of internet activities in SDN, 5G, and 6G · Forensics and threat investigations in IoT · Forensics and threat investigations in peer-to-peer, social, and cloud networks · Vulnerability & threat detection and mitigation techniques for networked services · Novel large-scale investigations techniques to analyze intelligence data sets and logs · Tools and services for cyber forensics and threat investigations · VoIP forensics, VoIPoW forensics We also encourage contributions describing innovative work in the realm of cybersecurity, cyber defense, and digital crimes.

Fwd: [AISWorld] 8th Int. Workshop on DEClarative, DECision and Hybrid approaches to processes (DEC2H): Deadline extended!
by Gustaf Neumann 31 May '20

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] 8th Int. Workshop on DEClarative, DECision and Hybrid approaches to processes (DEC2H): Deadline extended! Date: Fri, 29 May 2020 17:17:26 +0200 From: Claudio Di Ciccio <claudio.diciccio(a)uniroma1.it> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org ******************************************************************************** Call for Papers DEC2H 2020 8th International Workshop on DEClarative, DECision and Hybrid approaches to processes 14 September 2020 Co-located with the 18th Int. Conference on Business Process Management (BPM) http://dec2h-2020.di.uniroma1.it/ ******************************************************************************** Due to the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, it has been decided that BPM 2020 will be a fully virtual conference. The same will apply to the DEC2H workshop. Further details will follow as we get nearer to the workshop date. ******************************************************************************** In this workshop, we are interested in the application and challenges of decision-based, rule-based and hybrid modelling in all phases of the BPM lifecycle (identification, discovery, analysis, redesign, implementation and monitoring). Important Dates -------------------------- - Abstract submission (optional) deadline: June 5, 2020 (extended!) - Papers submission deadline: June 12, 2020 (extended!) - Notification: June 29, 2020 - Camera-ready deadline: July 13, 2020 - Workshop: September 14, 2020 Scope -------------------------- Processes and business process models involve rules and decisions describing the premises and possible outcomes of specific situations. However, important though they are, rules and decisions are often hidden in process flows, process activities or in the head of employees (tacit knowledge), so that they need to be discovered using state-of-art intelligent techniques. For knowledge-intensive processes it is common that rules and decisions, as opposed to the process-flow, define the allowed behaviour of a process. E.g., the major purpose of an insurance claim process is to ensure that the rules governing the claim are being followed and to arrive at a final decision. While traditional imperative notations such as BPMN excel at describing “happy paths”, they turn out to be rather inadequate for modelling rules and decisions. Imperative notations indeed tend to describe possible behaviour as alternative, restricted flows. But encompassing all possible variations makes imperative models cluttered and thus impractical in highly flexible scenarios. Against this background, a new declarative modelling paradigm has been proposed that aims to directly capture the business rules or constraints underlying the process. The approach has gained momentum in recent years, and several declarative notations have been developed such as Declare, DCR Graphs, DMN, GSM and eCRG. Lately, there has been a rapidly growing interest in hybrid approaches, which combine the strengths of different modelling paradigms. In this workshop, we are interested in the application and challenges of decision- and rule-based modelling in all phases of the BPM lifecycle (identification, discovery, analysis, redesign, implementation and monitoring). The purpose of the workshop is, therefore: - To examine the relationship between rules, decisions and processes, including models; not only to model the process but also to model the rules and decisions. - To enhance rule and decision mining based on process data (e.g. event logs) - To examine decision goals, structures, and their connection with business processes, in order to find a good integration between rule- and decision-based modelling and flow-based modelling. - To examine standards (DMN, CMMN, BPMN) and their integration. - To study how different process models can be designed to fit a decision process, according to various optimization criteria, such as throughput time, use of resources, etc. - To study the integration between different modelling paradigms. - To show best practices in separating process, rule and decision concerns. Topics of interest -------------------------- Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Declarative and hybrid (process modelling) approaches - Declarative notations (Declare, DCR Graphs, GSM, eCRG, ...) - Decision & goal notations (DMN, PDM, ...) - Case management notations (CMMN, ...) - Hybrid notations - Declarative and hybrid modelling methodologies - Process metrics - Process maintenance and flexibility - Human-centred and flexible processes - Decision rules and processes - Decision models and structures - Formal analysis (e.g. expressiveness proofs) of declarative and hybrid notations - Formal verification (e.g. model-checking and static analysis) of declarative and hybrid models - Run-time adaptation of declarative and hybrid process models Decision mining and declarative/hybrid process mining - Decision mining - Declarative process mining - Hybrid process mining - Data mining for decision and declarative/hybrid process analysis - Rule mining for decision and declarative/hybrid process analysis Applications of decision- and rule-modelling in BPM - Goal-driven processes - Knowledge-intensive processes - Business process compliance - Knowledge workflow management - Usability and understandability studies - Case studies - Tools Format of the Workshop -------------------------- The workshop will begin with a keynote, followed by presentations of accepted papers. Full papers have 20 minutes for their presentations and 10 minutes for discussion and Q&A. Short papers have 15 + 5 minutes. At the end of the workshop, there will be a closing panel discussion. Each manuscript will be reviewed by at least three program committee members guaranteeing that only papers presenting high-quality work and innovative research in areas relevant to the workshop theme will be accepted. All accepted papers will appear in the workshop proceedings published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing (LNBIP) series. There will be a single LNBIP volume dedicated to the proceedings of all BPM workshops. All accepted papers will appear in the workshop proceedings. They will be distributed electronically on USB sticks. The post-proceedings will be published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing (LNBIP) series, in a single volume dedicated to the proceedings of all BPM workshops. During a time window after the conference, the workshop participants will be granted the free download of the papers. Submission -------------------------- We are interested in research, work-in-progress, position, case-study and tool papers, either in long (not exceeding 12 pages) or short (not exceeding 6 pages) format. Only papers in English will be considered. Submitted papers must present original research contributions not concurrently submitted elsewhere.

Fwd: [computational.science] Call-for-participation: Workshop on Hierarchical Parallelism for Exascale Computing
by Gustaf Neumann 31 May '20

31 May '20

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [computational.science] Call-for-participation: Workshop on Hierarchical Parallelism for Exascale Computing Date: Fri, 29 May 2020 14:41:20 +0000 From: Rizzi, Francesco NMN via computational.science <computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org> Reply-To: Rizzi, Francesco NMN <fnrizzi(a)sandia.gov> ******************************************************************** Call for Participation Workshop on Hierarchical Parallelism for Exascale Computing ---HiPar20--- Held in conjunction with SC20, Atlanta, GA. In cooperation with: IEEE and TCHPC. www.hipar.net ******************************************************************** ================================ Summary ================================ High Performance Computing (HPC) platforms are evolving towards having fewer but more powerful nodes, driven by the increasing number of physical cores in multiple sockets and accelerators. The boundary between nodes and networks is starting to blur, with some nodes now containing tens of compute elements and memory sub-systems connected via a memory fabric. The immediate consequence is an increase in complexity due to ever more complex architectures (e.g., memory hierarchies), novel accelerator designs, and energy constraints. Spurred largely by this trend, hierarchical parallelism is gaining momentum. This approach embraces, rather than avoiding, the intrinsic complexity of current and future HPC systems by exploiting parallelism at all levels: compute, memory and network. This workshop focuses on hierarchical parallelism. It aims to bring together application, hardware, and software practitioners proposing new strategies to fully exploit computational hierarchies, and examples to illustrate their benefits to achieve extreme scale parallelism. ================================ Scope and Aims ================================ HiPar20 is designed to showcase new studies, approaches, and cutting-edge ideas on hierarchical parallelism for extreme-scale computing. We welcome papers and talks from the HPC community addressing the use of emerging architectures — focusing particularly on those characterized by fewer but more powerful nodes as well as systems with hierarchical network with tiered communication semantics. Specifically, the emphasis is on the design, implementation, and application of programming models for multi-level parallelism, including abstractions for hierarchical memory access, heterogeneity, multi-threading, vectorization, and energy efficiency, as well as scalability and performance studies thereof. Of particular interest are models addressing these concerns portably: providing ease of programming and maintaining performance in the presence of varied accelerators, hardware configurations, and execution models. Studies that explore the merits of specific approaches to addressing these concerns, such as generic programming or domain specific languages, are also in scope. The workshop is not limited to the traditional HPC software community. As one example, another key topic is the use of hierarchical parallelism in dealing with the challenges arising in machine learning due to the growing importance of this field, the large scale of systems tackled in that area, and the increasing interest from more traditional HPC areas. A goal of HiPar20 is to highlight not just success stories but also discuss drawbacks and challenges. HiPar20 welcomes HPC practitioners from all areas, ranging from hardware and compiler experts to algorithms and software developers, to present and discuss the state of the art in emerging approaches to utilize multi-level parallelism for extreme scale computing. ================================ Topics ================================ Submissions are encouraged in, but not limited to the following areas: * Hierarchical work scheduling and execution; * Hardware, software, and algorithmic advances for efficient use of memory hierarchies, multi-threading and vectorization; * Efficient use of nested parallelism, for example CUDA dynamic parallelism, for large scale simulations; * Programming heterogeneous nodes; * Leading-edge programming models, for example fully distributed task-based models and hybrid MPI+X, with X representing shared memory parallelism via threads, vectorization, tasking or parallel loop constructs. * Implementations of algorithms that are natural fits for nested work (for example approaches that use recursion); * Challenges and successes in managing computing hierarchies; * Examples demonstrating effective use of the combination of inter-node and intra-node parallelism; * Novel approaches leveraging asynchronous execution to maximize efficiency; * Challenges and successes of porting of existing applications to many-core and heterogeneous platforms; * Recent developments in compiler optimizations for emerging architectures; * Applications of hierarchical programming models from emerging AI fields, for example deep learning and extreme-scale data analytics. ================================ Submission Guidelines ================================ We solicit submissions in the following categories: (a) Regular research papers: Intended for submissions describing original work and ideas that have not appeared in another conference or journal, and are not currently under review for any other conference or journal. Regular papers must be at least (6) and must not exceed (10) letter size pages (U.S. letter – 8.5"x11"). Accepted regular papers will be published in the workshop proceedings in cooperation with IEEE TCHPC. (b) Short papers: Intended for material that is not mature enough for a full paper, to present novel, interesting ideas or preliminary results that will be formally submitted elsewhere. Short papers must not exceed four (4) pages. Short papers will NOT be included in the proceedings. Please note that: - The page limits above only apply to the core text, content-related appendices, and figures. References and reproducibility appendix do not count against the page limit. - When deciding between submissions with comparable evaluations, priority will be given to those with higher quality of presentation and whose focus relates more directly to the workshop themes. - Papers must be submitted electronically at https://submissions.supercomputing.org/ and must follow the IEEE format: www.ieee.org/conferences/publishing/templates.html ================================ Reproducibility Initiative ================================ HiPar20 follows the SC20 reproducibility and transparency initiative. The SC20 details can be found at: https://sc20.supercomputing.org/submit/transparency-reproducibility-initiat…. HiPar20 requires all submission to include an Artifact Description (AD) Appendix. Note that the AD will be auto-generated from author responses to a form embedded in the online submission system. The Artifact Evaluation (AE) remains optional. We also encourage authors to follow the transparency initiative for two reasons: (a) it helps the authors themselves with the actual writing and structuring of the paper to express the research process; (b) it helps readers understand the thinking process used by the authors to plan, obtain and explain their results. ================================ Coronavirus and HiPar20 ================================ We are monitoring the situation on a daily basis, following closely the SC20 updates: https://sc20.supercomputing.org/attend/coronavirus-sc/ https://sc20.supercomputing.org/2020/03/10/hpc-supports-pandemic-research-e… We are brainstorming about hosting the workshop in a virtual setting, should SC20 become digital. Please refer to our HiPar20 website www.hipar.net for latest updates. ================================ Important dates ================================ Submission Deadline: August 31, 2020 (AoE) Author Notification: September 14, 2020 Camera Ready: October 5, 2020 Final Program: October 9, 2020 Workshop Date: Sun Nov 15, 9am-5:30pm ================================ Chairs and Committees ================================ Workshop chair: - Francesco Rizzi NexGen Analytics Organizing Committee: - D.S.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: BWL.Weiter.Denken.: Call for Papers zur Jahrestagung 2021 in Düsseldorf anlässlich des 100jährigen Verbandsjubiläums Date: Thu, 28 May 2020 11:23:03 +0200 From: VHB Geschäftsstelle <info(a)vhbonline.org> Reply-To: VHB Geschäftsstelle <info(a)vhbonline.org> To: Gustaf Neumann <neumann(a)wu-wien.ac.at> Liebe Frau Kollegin, lieber Herr Kollege, wir freuen uns als Düsseldorfer Betriebswirte in der Wirtschaftswissenschaftlichen Fakultät der Heinrich-Heine-Universität sehr, dass wir für den VHB die Jahrestagung 2021 mit dem Generalthema „BWL.Weiter.Denken. Aus der Wissenschaft – für Unternehmen – in die Gesellschaft“ zum 100jährigen Verbandsjubiläum vom 16. bis 19. März 2021 ausrichten dürfen. Wir arbeiten mit Hochdruck daran, diese Tagung für alle Verbandsmitglieder zu einem ganz besonderen Event zu machen und trotz der Beschränkungen durch die COVID-19-Pandemie einen schönen und würdigen Rahmen zu bieten. So haben wir beispielsweise eine Vielzahl hinreichend großer Räume gebucht, um nicht nur in den verschiedenen Sitzungen im offenen wissenschaftlichen Programm, sondern auch in den Pausen und sonstigen Poster- oder Plenarveranstaltungen einen guten fachlichen wie persönlichen Austausch in der Kollegenschaft möglich zu machen. Denn gerade das ist es ja, was unsere Jahrestagung im VHB als akademisches Ereignis auszeichnet – ganz besonders auch im Festjahr des 100jährigen Bestehen des Verbands. Wie in jedem Jahr wird es auf der Düsseldorfer Tagung an den beiden Hauptkonferenztagen (Mittwoch und Donnerstag, 17. und 18. März 2021) ein attraktives Programm aus Vorträgen im offenen wissenschaftlichen Programm geben, ergänzt um Plenar-Keynotes, Symposien oder Poster-Sessions. Darüber hinaus werden ebenfalls in bewährter Form Methodenworkshops vor allem am Pre-Conference-Tag (Dienstag, 16. März) stattfinden sowie Veranstaltungen zu verschiedenen Verbandsthemen auch am Post-Conference-Tag (Freitag, 19. März). Natürlich gibt es auch ein Rahmenprogramm: Die feierliche Eröffnung der Tagung ist für Dienstag, den 16. März ab 17.00 Uhr geplant, das festliche Galadinner im Düsseldorfer Henkel-Saal am Mittwoch, den 17. März, nach Abschluss des Tagesprogramms. Mit dem beiliegenden Call for Papers möchten wir Sie aufrufen, das Tagungsprogramm durch eigene wissenschaftliche Beiträge zu bereichern. Bitte zirkulieren Sie den Call for Papers gern auch im Kreis der von Ihnen betreuten Nachwuchswissenschaftlerinnen und -wissenschaftler. Wir werden das Einreichungssystem in den nächsten Wochen öffnen, sobald auch die Website bwl2021.org <http://bwl2021.org> zur Verfügung steht. Für Ihre Zeitplanung: Die Einreichungsfrist geht bis zum 11. Oktober 2020, danach erfolgt die Begutachtung in den Wissenschaftlichen Kommissionen, die bis zum 11. Dezember 2020 alle Autorinnen und Autoren über eine Annahme ihres Beitrags informieren. Es besteht außerdem parallel die Möglichkeit, Konferenzbeiträge für ein Sonderheft des Schmalenbach Journal of Business Research (SBUR) einzureichen. Auch hierzu werden wir Sie noch genauer informieren. In diesem Sinne freuen wir uns, von Ihnen zu hören, und ganz besonders auch darauf, Sie im nächsten Jahr in Düsseldorf persönlich zu begrüßen. Mit herzlichen Grüßen bin ich für heute gemeinsam mit den Kollegen Christoph Börner, Guido Förster und Peter Kenning aus unserem Organisationskomitee Ihre Barbara E.

The conference provides a forum for sharing and developing ideas relating to Information Technology (IT) research, education, applications, IT industry-academia relationships, and our roles as professionals, educators, teachers, and advocates for the effective use of information technology. IT as a professional endeavor is influenced by multiple disciplines - computer science, information systems, management science, cognitive science, psychology, learning, and much more. Consequently, educators at all levels (secondary school through University) have to deal with challenges of emergent areas of study such as IT innovation, Human Computer Interaction (HCI), Human Machine Interaction (HMI), Cybersecurity, Agile Software Engineering, Social Informatics, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML) and much more. _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org
