-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [WI] 1st CfP - CAOS: Cognition And OntologieS @FOIS - September - Bolzano, Italy Date: Sun, 16 May 2021 10:41:13 +0200 From: Maria Hedblom <maria.m.hedblom(a)gmail.com> Reply-To: Maria Hedblom <maria.m.hedblom(a)gmail.com> To: Kutz Oliver (A) <Oliver.Kutz(a)unibz.it>, Guendalina Righetti <Guendalina.Righetti(a)stud-inf.unibz.it> (We apologise for possible cross postings) CAOS 2021 - Call for Papers Cognition And OntologieS in conjunction with FOIS held September 11-18 in Bolzano, Italy (hybrid event) https://caos.inf.unibz.it <https://caos.inf.unibz.it> The purpose of the workshop is to bridge the gap between the cognitive sciences and research on ontologies and, thus, to create a venue for researchers interested in interdisciplinary aspects of knowledge representation. More specifically CAOS investigates how key cognitive phenomena and concepts (and the involved terminology) can be found across language, psychology and reasoning and how they can be formally and ontologically understood and analysed. It moreover seeks answers to ways such formalisations and ontological analysis can be exploited in Artificial Intelligence and information systems in general. We welcome submissions on topics related to the ontology of hypothesized building blocks of cognition (such as image schemas, affordances, categories, and related notions) and of cognitive capacities (such as concept invention, language acquisition and categorisation), as well as system demonstrations modelling these capacities in application settings. We also welcome submissions addressing the cognitive and epistemological adequacy of ontological modelling. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): Modelling cognitive phenomena: * Language acquisition * Formalisation / modelling of language * Embodied cognition * Concept invention * AI for language understanding * Image schemas / affordances for AI * Knowledge acquisition in AI and Robotics * Natural language applications / system-demonstrations Epistemological and cognitive foundation of ontologies: * Cognitive foundations of ontologies and ontologies of cognitive theories (e.g. connection with conceptual spaces, diagrammatic representations, mental models, prototypes, image schemas, scripts etc.). * Empirical foundations of ontologies: ontologies driven from observations, measurements, tests, and in general from data acquired using empirical procedures. * Representation of different perspectives on the same domain: contexts, granularity, resolution, ontological levels. * Quantitative approaches/analyses, probabilities, uncertainty, and ontologies. * Neural networks and ontological modelling. * Integration of ontologies with different formats and levels of representation (e.g. neural-symbolic integration). * Inductive reasoning in ontologies. * Ontological Extensions of Cognitive Architectures. We welcome researchers from all career stages to participate. Work in progress (short papers) are also welcome since a central goal of the workshop is the discussion of ongoing interdisciplinary work. All papers must be original and not submitted to or accepted by any other workshop, conference or journal. Note, that for inclusion in the JOWO proceedings, short and position papers are required to be at least 5 pages long. All contributions will be peer-reviewed, and the review process will be managed in a collaborative and transparent manner using the EasyChair System as part of the JOWO organisation. Submissions Submission deadline: July 3, 2021 Submission link:� https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=jowo2021 (select the track “Cognition And OntologieS”) � *Details and instructions: * We encourage three types of contributions: Full research paper:� Submitted papers must not exceed 14 pages (excluding the bibliography). Please note that the minimum length is 10 pages. Short paper: Submitted papers must not exceed 7 pages (excluding the bibliography). Please note that the minimum length is 5 pages. *Abstracts for presentation:* 2-4 page abstracts for presentation. Note that these will not be included in the proceedings. Papers should be submitted non-anonymously in PDF format in compliance with the new 1-column CEUR-ART Style. Word and Latex templates can be found at https://ceurws.wordpress.com/2020/03/31/ceurws-publishes-ceurart-paper-styl… All contributions to JOWO workshops will be published in a joint CEUR proceedings volume, compare: JOWO 2020:� http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-2708/ JOWO 2019:� http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-2518/ JOWO 2018:� http://ceur-ws.org/Vol-2205/ Workshop policy CAOS 2021 is planned as a hybrid event. Hence, there will be a physical meeting in Bolzano which hopefully most will be able to join. However, given the uncertainty about travel in September, we will make arrangements for remote participation.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Call for Papers - Special Issue "Information Retrieval, Recommender Systems and Adaptive Systems" Date: Thu, 13 May 2021 11:11:49 +0200 From: Marco Polignano <marco.polignano(a)uniba.it> ****************************************************************************************************** Apologies if you received multiple cross-postings of this CFP. ****************************************************************************************************** /Call for Papers/ *Special Issue: **Information Retrieval, Recommender Systems and Adaptive Systems* Website: https://www.mdpi.com/journal/information/special_issues/info_retrieval_reco… Deadline for manuscript submissions: *30 November 2021* ****************************************************************************************************** Dear Colleagues, The growing amount of data produced daily has made their exploration impossible without using search and filtering tools and strategies. Indeed, the end user often spends hours searching on the Web for elements compliant with their needs, thereby facing a complex and time-consuming task. This scenario underlines the ever more current need to create systems to support the end user in the search, filtering, and consumption of such huge amounts of information. In this regard, adaptive and personalized systems play an increasingly important role in our daily lives as we more and more rely on systems that adapt their behavior based on our preferences and needs and support us in a wide range of heterogeneous decision-making tasks. In such regards, Machine Learning approaches have been recently demonstrated effective to process heterogeneous information providing novel solution not only for the task of content analysis, but also for their retrieval and recommendation. The evolution of such approaches has made it possible to discover new threats, limits, and challenges that needs our attention. The cost of performances, the development of strategies to correctly evaluate those algorithms, and how to exploit the context of usage and psychological and emotional reactions are only few of the possible new research trends. This Special Issue on *information retrieval, recommender systems, and adaptive systems* is aimed at industrial and academic researchers who apply non-traditional methods to tasks related with the management of huge amounts of information. I invite you and your colleagues to submit a contribution for this special issue in which some of the leading experts will describe their work, ideas and findings. Your paper will be published after our standard peer-review procedure, in our open access journal Information. The official deadline for submission is *30 November 2021*. However, you may send your manuscript at any time before the deadline. We can organize a very fast peer-review. If accepted, the paper will be published very soon. In case you need any further information, please never hesitate to contact us (myself or the Editorial Office: information(a)mdpi.com). Thank you very much in advance for your kind support and cooperation. We look forward to collaborating with you and to hearing back from you soon. Best Regards, Editors: Dr. Marco Polignano and Prof. Giovanni Semeraro _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

Fwd: [WI] CfP 14th Workshop on Social and Human Aspects of Business Process Management (BPMS2’21)
by Gustaf Neumann 15 May '21

15 May '21

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [WI] CfP 14th Workshop on Social and Human Aspects of Business Process Management (BPMS2’21) Date: Sat, 15 May 2021 15:45:02 +0200 From: rainer.schmidt(a)hm.edu Reply-To: rainer.schmidt(a)hm.edu To: wi(a)lists.kit.edu The 14th Workshop on Social and Human Aspects of Business Process Management (BPMS2’21) As part of BPM 2021 19th International Conference on Business Process Management September 6, 2021, Rome, Italy Call for Papers Deadline for workshop paper submissions: May 24, 2021 Workshop Theme The involvement of human aspects into Business Process Management takes place both on a social and individual level. Social information systems 1 such as social media, Enterprise 2.0, and social platforms are spreading quickly in society, organizations, and economics. Enterprises use social information systems to improve their business processes and create new business models. The integration of business process management and social information systems becomes more and more widespread. New approaches for using social information systems in combination with business process management appear frequently. Social information systems are used both in external and internal business processes. Companies can co-create products and services, e.g., companies integrate customers into product development to capture ideas and features. Thus, communication with the customer is increasingly bi-directional. The integration of business process management and social information systems enables the creation of new business models using social platforms. Social platforms enable the creation of cross-side network effects and therefore called two- or multi-sided markets2. Prominent examples are TripAdvisor, UBER, and AirBnB. By using the value-creating mechanisms of social information systems, business models became possible, which were not realizable before. E.g., the AirBnB uses a crowdsourcing model for quality control by using users’ reviews of apartments. In this way, a quality assessment of products and services became possible that was too costly so far. Social information systems also create new possibilities to enhance internal business processes by improving the exchange of knowledge and information, to speed up decisions, etc. Social information systems enable value-creating interactions such as weak ties, social production, egalitarianism. These value-creating interactions open new possibilities and potentials for the design of processes. Weak ties enable the flexible integration of process participants, social production paves the way for the bottom-up definition of business processes, and egalitarian decisions change how decisions are made in business processes. The use of value-creating interactions is tightly intertwined with new forms of involvement of human beings into business process management. Human aspects complement the social perspective on business process management. The fact that more and more enterprises are using business process management implies that the human individual is involved in a multitude of business processes. Individuals must cope with multiple process contexts and thus must administer data appropriately. Digital assistants such as Alex integrate individuals in processes that could not interact with conventional computers. In this way, new forms of interaction between processes and humans arise. Furthermore, individuals must integrate the external business processes into their work environment or even to couple several external business processes. Human aspects of business process management relate to the individual who creates a process model, to the communication among people, during and after the process execution, and to the social process of collaborative modeling. They also relate to the interaction / collaboration / coordination / cooperation that should be implemented in the business process or to specific human-related aspects of the business process itself and their representations in models. Before this background, the goal of the workshop is to explore how social information systems integrate with business process management, and how business process management may profit from this integration. Furthermore, the workshop investigates the human aspects introduced into Business Process Management by involving human actors. Examples are the use of crowdsourced knowledge and tasks, the need for new user interfaces, e.g., augmented reality and voice bots. The workshop will discuss three topics. Social Business Process Management, Social Business and Platforms, and Human Aspects of Business Process Management. 1. Social Business Process Management (SBPM) - Social information systems in the BPM lifecycle e.g., Design, Deployment, Operation, and Evaluation - BPM methods and paradigms to cope with Social information systems - Influence of weak ties, social production, egalitarianism, and mutual service provisioning on BPM - Trust and reputation in business processes management carried through Social information systems - Influence of weak ties, social production, egalitarianism and mutual service provisioning in the design and management of business processes? - Integration of Social information systems with WFMS or other business process support systems? - Conceptual modelling for knowledge intensive and social business processes? 2. Social Business and Social Platforms: Social information systems supporting business processes - New opportunities offered by Social information systems for the support of business processes - Social platforms and their support for business processes and new business models - Value (co-)creation in social business and social platforms - Sociality requirements of business processes according to their nature (predictable/non predictable; production/collaborative/ad hoc) - Use of Wikis, Blogs etc. to support business processes - Fitting between types of Social information systems and phases of the BPM lifecycle - New trends in business knowledge modelling leveraged by social production 3. Human Aspects of Business Process Management - Concepts, technologies, and services to support individuals acting in business processes - Digital Assistants such as Google, Siri etc. in business process management and business processes - Human aspects of business process management - Human-centric business processes - Human resource management in business processes (workloads, skills, preferences, affinities, context, mobility, etc. …) Goal Based on the twelve previous successful BPMS2 workshops since 2008, the goal of the BPMS2’21 workshop is to promote the integration of business process management with social information systems and social software and to enlarge the community pursuing the theme. Workshop paper format Position papers of up to 2500 words are sought. Position papers that raise relevant questions, or describe successful or unsuccessful practice, or describe experience will all be welcome. Position papers will be assigned a 20-minute presentation. Short papers of up to 1000 words can also be submitted and will be assigned a 10-minute presentation.

SoEA4EE’2021 October 25, 2021, Gold Coast, Australia http://www.soea4ee.org/ Enterprise Engineering (EE) is the application of engineering principles to the design of Enterprise Architectures. It enables deriving the Enterprise Architecture from the enterprise goals and strategy and aligning it with the enterprise resources that also may be in the cloud or on the edge. Enterprise architecture is used to map the enterprise goal and strategy to the enterprise’s resources (actors, assets, IT supports) and to support the evolution of this mapping. It also provides documentation on the assignment of enterprise resources to the enterprise goals and strategy, e.g. for establishing new business models such as platforms. There are different paradigms for creating enterprise architecture. The most important is to encapsulate the functionalities of IT resources as services. By this means, it is possible to clearly describe the contributions of IT both in terms of functionality and quality and to define a service-oriented enterprise architecture (SoEA). The goal of the workshop is to develop concepts and methods to assist the engineering and the management of service oriented enterprise architectures (SoEA) and the software systems supporting them. Topics for Discussion During the workshop we will discuss the following topics: 1. Digital enterprises, Industry 4.0 and Platforms - New trends in digitization for enterprise architecture and enterprise engineering e.g. Industry 4.0, platforms - Impacts of digitized products on enterprise architecture - Enterprise architecture - contributions and challenges for digital transformation, Industry 4.0 and platforms 2. SoEA and influence of Artificial Intelligence, social information systems and big data in Enterprise Engineering - Trends in SoEA to use the capabilities of Artificial Intelligence, social information systems and big data (volume, variety, velocity, veracity) - Impacts of Artificial Intelligence, social information systems and big data on the SoEA 3. SoEA with cloud- and edge-computing - Fitting SoEA with cloud and edge computing - Concepts and methods for mapping enterprise services to cloud- and edge- based resources - Concepts and methods for mapping non-functional requirements to cloud- and edge-based resources 4. Alignment of the enterprise goals and strategy with the SoEA - Interdependencies between services and business goals - Concepts and methods to align services with the business strategy - New potentials and trends created by services to reengineer business processes - Quality issues and non-functional requirements for SoEA - Coherence of services with compliance requirements (among others, GDPR, ISO/ IEC 27001 and 27002, ISO 15408) 5. Design of SoEA - Specifications of business, software, platform and infrastructure services - Matching business services with business processes - Lifecycle of business, software, platform and infrastructure services - Data-driven monitoring of the fulfilment of non-functional requirements (big data, IoT, …) - Benchmarks and key performance indicators for services - Approaches the continual improvement of services 6. Governance of SoEA - Impacts of SoEA on the compliance and governance requirements - Meta-services for business, software, platform and infrastructure services - Building service (value) nets -consisting of business, software, platform and infrastructure services - Meta-services for cloud-environments - Impacts of VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity) on the governance of EA Submission Full papers (8-10 pages in the IEEE-CS format) describing mature results are sought. In addition, short/position papers (4-6 pages in the IEEE-CS format) may be submitted to facilitate discussion of recent research results and ongoing projects. Industry experience reports provide new insights gained in case studies or when applying service-oriented EA for enterprise engineering are also welcome. The paper selection will be based upon the relevance of a paper to the main topics, as well as upon its quality and potential to generate relevant discussion. All contributions will be peer reviewed based on the complete version, being full or short. Please note that all submissions should be made in PDF format and comply with the [IEEE Computer Society Conference Proceedings Format Guidelines] (http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html). The proceedings will be published by the IEEE Computer Society Press and be made accessible through IEEE Xplore and the IEEE Computer Society Digital Library. Please submit your paper to Easychair at https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=soea4ee2021 At least one author of each accepted workshop paper will have to register for the whole EDOC 2021 conference and attend the workshop to present the paper. Covid19 pandemic and the related Australian border restrictions place a number of constraints on the physical attendance of international delegates at the EDOC 2021. Thus, the participation to SoEA4EE 2021 will be remote for non- Australian delegates. The registration fee will be adapted to the situation. Analogously to previous years, there will be no workshop-only registration at EDOC 2021. If a paper is not presented in the workshop, it will be removed from the workshop proceedings published in the IEEE Xplore digital library. The SoEA4EE workshop has been a full day workshop in conjunction with EDOC’09 in New Zealand, with EDOC’10 in Brasil, EDOC’11 in Finland, EDOC 2012 in China, EDOC’2013 in Canada, EDOC’2014 in Germany, EDOC’2015 in Australia, EDOC’2016 in Austria, EDOC’2017 in Canada, EDOC’2018 in Stockholm, EDOC’2019 in Paris, and EDOC’2020 virtually in Eindhoven. The programs of the previous editions can be reached from the portal of the SoEA4EE series: www.soea4ee.org Expected results All papers will be published in the workshop wiki (www.soea4ee.org) before the workshop, so that everybody can learn about the problems that are important for other participants. The workshop will consist of long and short paper presentations, brainstorming sessions and discussions. Workshop papers will be published in a second volume of the EDOC 2021 conference proceedings.

Fwd: [AISWorld] CfP 14th Workshop on Social and Human Aspects of Business Process Management (BPMS2’21)
by Gustaf Neumann 15 May '21

15 May '21

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CfP 14th Workshop on Social and Human Aspects of Business Process Management (BPMS2’21) Date: Sat, 15 May 2021 13:34:13 +0000 From: Rainer Schmidt <Rainer.Schmidt(a)live.com> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> The 14th Workshop on Social and Human Aspects of Business Process Management (BPMS2’21) As part of BPM 2021 19th International Conference on Business Process Management September 6, 2021, Rome, Italy Call for Papers Deadline for workshop paper submissions: May 24, 2021 Workshop Theme The involvement of human aspects into Business Process Management takes place both on a social and individual level. Social information systems 1 such as social media, Enterprise 2.0, and social platforms are spreading quickly in society, organizations, and economics. Enterprises use social information systems to improve their business processes and create new business models. The integration of business process management and social information systems becomes more and more widespread. New approaches for using social information systems in combination with business process management appear frequently. Social information systems are used both in external and internal business processes. Companies can co-create products and services, e.g., companies integrate customers into product development to capture ideas and features. Thus, communication with the customer is increasingly bi-directional. The integration of business process management and social information systems enables the creation of new business models using social platforms. Social platforms enable the creation of cross-side network effects and therefore called two- or multi-sided markets2. Prominent examples are TripAdvisor, UBER, and AirBnB. By using the value-creating mechanisms of social information systems, business models became possible, which were not realizable before. E.g., the AirBnB uses a crowdsourcing model for quality control by using users’ reviews of apartments. In this way, a quality assessment of products and services became possible that was too costly so far. Social information systems also create new possibilities to enhance internal business processes by improving the exchange of knowledge and information, to speed up decisions, etc. Social information systems enable value-creating interactions such as weak ties, social production, egalitarianism. These value-creating interactions open new possibilities and potentials for the design of processes. Weak ties enable the flexible integration of process participants, social production paves the way for the bottom-up definition of business processes, and egalitarian decisions change how decisions are made in business processes. The use of value-creating interactions is tightly intertwined with new forms of involvement of human beings into business process management. Human aspects complement the social perspective on business process management. The fact that more and more enterprises are using business process management implies that the human individual is involved in a multitude of business processes. Individuals must cope with multiple process contexts and thus must administer data appropriately. Digital assistants such as Alex integrate individuals in processes that could not interact with conventional computers. In this way, new forms of interaction between processes and humans arise. Furthermore, individuals must integrate the external business processes into their work environment or even to couple several external business processes. Human aspects of business process management relate to the individual who creates a process model, to the communication among people, during and after the process execution, and to the social process of collaborative modeling. They also relate to the interaction / collaboration / coordination / cooperation that should be implemented in the business process or to specific human-related aspects of the business process itself and their representations in models. Before this background, the goal of the workshop is to explore how social information systems integrate with business process management, and how business process management may profit from this integration. Furthermore, the workshop investigates the human aspects introduced into Business Process Management by involving human actors. Examples are the use of crowdsourced knowledge and tasks, the need for new user interfaces, e.g., augmented reality and voice bots. The workshop will discuss three topics. Social Business Process Management, Social Business and Platforms, and Human Aspects of Business Process Management. 1. Social Business Process Management (SBPM) - Social information systems in the BPM lifecycle e.g., Design, Deployment, Operation, and Evaluation - BPM methods and paradigms to cope with Social information systems - Influence of weak ties, social production, egalitarianism, and mutual service provisioning on BPM - Trust and reputation in business processes management carried through Social information systems - Influence of weak ties, social production, egalitarianism and mutual service provisioning in the design and management of business processes? - Integration of Social information systems with WFMS or other business process support systems? - Conceptual modelling for knowledge intensive and social business processes? 2. Social Business and Social Platforms: Social information systems supporting business processes - New opportunities offered by Social information systems for the support of business processes - Social platforms and their support for business processes and new business models - Value (co-)creation in social business and social platforms - Sociality requirements of business processes according to their nature (predictable/non predictable; production/collaborative/ad hoc) - Use of Wikis, Blogs etc. to support business processes - Fitting between types of Social information systems and phases of the BPM lifecycle - New trends in business knowledge modelling leveraged by social production 3. Human Aspects of Business Process Management - Concepts, technologies, and services to support individuals acting in business processes - Digital Assistants such as Google, Siri etc. in business process management and business processes - Human aspects of business process management - Human-centric business processes - Human resource management in business processes (workloads, skills, preferences, affinities, context, mobility, etc. …) Goal Based on the twelve previous successful BPMS2 workshops since 2008, the goal of the BPMS2’21 workshop is to promote the integration of business process management with social information systems and social software and to enlarge the community pursuing the theme. Workshop paper format Position papers of up to 2500 words are sought. Position papers that raise relevant questions, or describe successful or unsuccessful practice, or describe experience will all be welcome. Position papers will be assigned a 20-minute presentation. Short papers of up to 1000 words can also be submitted and will be assigned a 10-minute presentation.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [WI] CfP: Home Office: Working from a Private Place; Special Issue BISE-Journal Date: Sat, 15 May 2021 10:12:47 +0000 From: Müller, Claudia, Prof. Dr. <Claudia.Mueller(a)uni-siegen.de> Reply-To: Müller, Claudia, Prof. Dr. <Claudia.Mueller(a)uni-siegen.de> To: wi(a)lists.kit.edu <wi(a)lists.kit.edu> +++ apologies for cross-posting+++ *� * *1 Call topic: Home Office: Working from a Private Place * *Special Issue of BISE-Journal http://www.bise-journal.com/?p=1938* *� * The availability of digital technologies offers the opportunity to reshape work and life. In particular, the traditional spatial and temporal restrictions for workspaces are increasingly being reduced. Even beyond COVID-19, many office employees will continue to work, at least partly, from home. Although the degree of virtualization will continue to increase, a combination of physical and virtual presence can be expected. Hybrid forms of working will become part of our future private and professional life. Working from home goes hand in hand with great potential, but at the same time also with risks. Recent experiences with home schooling and home office have triggered intensive discussions on potential positive and negative outcomes of co-locating work with private and schooling activities. There is a need to design digital technologies appropriately to support individuals, groups and organizations in ways that increase productivity and wellbeing. Thus, pursuing a socio-technical paradigm for understanding and designing for the home office is essential. The fields of Information Systems (IS), Computer-Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW), and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) have a long tradition in designing from a socio-technical perspective. Building on this tradition, we believe that existing work practices in the home office need to be analyzed and understood more intensively. Digital technologies must be designed and tailored to fit into the complexities of the home office.� New descriptive and prescriptive knowledge must be provided to fully leverage the potential of working from home. This special issue welcomes a diversity of submissions and is hence open for empirical, design-oriented, and conceptual research focusing on working from home. Manuscripts may employ qualitative, quantitative, engineering, mixed methods, or innovative research designs. They may address the individual, group or organizational level. Thus, topics may include, but are not limited to, the following areas: * Empirical studies of work practices and social practices in home offices * Innovative designs of digital technologies in support of home office work, e.g., NeuroIS (e.g., eye-tracking-based or physio-adaptive IS), conversational agents or AR-/VR-based IS * Methods and techniques for implementing and operating home offices * New conceptualizations and theories of working from home * Individual-, group-, organization-, and multi-level studies of home office working antecedents and outcomes from a social, psychological, and performance perspective * Appropriation of digital technologies for working from home * Studies on innovative hybrid home office designs and corresponding office designs * Leading and managing working from home * Gender studies on working from home * Studies on control and surveillance and its avoidance in home offices * Studies on hybrid service provision from home � All submissions should cover digital aspects of working from home and open the "black box" of information technology (i.e., shed light on specific aspects of the applied IT artifacts). *2 Submission Guidelines* � Please submit your paper by 1 December 2021, via BISE’s online submission system (https://www.editorialmanager.com/buis/ <https://www.editorialmanager.com/buis/>).
