Subject: [AISWorld] CFP: HCI for Digital Democracy and Citizen
Participation - IFIP WG 13.8 Workshop @ Interact 2023
Date: Mon, 22 May 2023 14:43:18 +0000
From: Jose Abdelnour-Nocera <Jose.Abdelnour-Nocera(a)uwl.ac.uk>
To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org>
2nd Call for papers
This IFIP WG 13.8 workshop on HCI for Digital Democracy and Citizen
Participation will take place preceding INTERACT2023, in York, UK, on 28
or 29 August 2023 (TBC). Online attendance will be allowed.
https://ifipwg138.wordpress.com/hci-democracy/
Motivation
This workshop will explore and discuss how Human Computer Interaction
(HCI) as a field of knowledge and practice can contribute to develop
platforms for digital democracy and participation. These issues are
mainly seen at two levels: (1) the optimal design of the digital
environment of citizen participation platforms, and (2) explore how HCI
can contribute to the development of new trends in Political Science,
such as e-democracy. The practice of designing digital platforms for
citizen participation and democracy could benefit greatly from a
multidisciplinary sociotechnical approach that incorporates into design
reflection on issues of democratic theory and practice, legal and
political science. Researchers have sought to articulate design patterns
and evaluation tools for these platforms with general perspectives on
the democraticity of the processes they sustain. But citizen
participation systems give rise to specific problems related to
usability and user experience. The user is both the institution,
company, formal, and informal collective, as well as the subjects that
interact with these platforms. This workshop proposes a
multidisciplinary exploration and discussion about design of digital
platforms for citizen participation and democracy, including issues such
as the necessary digital and technological resources, typology of tools
that allow communication (to share knowledge), create community (to find
and integrate individuals into a collective) and cooperation between
individuals (to achieve common community goals), legality of the
decisions taken in these platforms or subjective trust in their general
function.
The target audience for this workshop includes researchers and
practitioners from different disciplines working on topics related to
Digital Democracy and Citizen Participation in HCI. Early-stage
researchers and PhD students are also encouraged to submit
work-in-progress papers.
Topics of Interest
We look for position papers trying to answer one or more of the
following questions:
How can different approaches towards sociotechnical and interaction
design pro-mote or undermine democratic participation?
What are the best design patterns and requirements that lead to
effective platforms for Digital Democracy and Participation?
How can digital democracy platforms be evaluated?
What are the best tools and methods to support communication, community
formation and deliberation in democratic processes?
Design thinking and innovation: how the design process should be led by
democratic requirements and not by technology affordances?
How to identify forms of democracy and associated practices through the
presenta-tion of relevant case studies.
How to identify and assess the nature and type of citizen participation
in the pro-cess of design of these platforms.
Workshop Objectives
In this workshop, we understand the above issues as sociotechnical in
nature and aim to trace the cultural and political dynamics that drive
the design of this type of platforms. More concretely, we solicit
position papers that help us fulfil the following objectives:
To help develop a framework of HCI to be applied in e-democracy and
participatory processes.
Collect examples and experiences of digital democracy platforms.
Collecting examples and experiences that show that the field of HCI can
be beneficial in the design and development of digital platforms for
citizen decision processes
Formulate a research agenda for future work on digital democracy
research on HCI.
Expected Outcomes
The workshop will produce a research agenda for studying the optimum
development of digital platforms for e-democracy processes through a HCI
lens, and how best to understand and analyze them. The aim with this
research agenda is to stimulate further research interest and provide
direction for critical research on HCI apply to design digital
participatory platforms. In addition, extended versions of the workshop
papers will be published by Springer in the LNCS series as a volume
collecting papers from the INTERACT 2023 workshops and in a special
issue in the Interacting with Computers journal.
Submission Procedure
Please submit your position paper of four pages in the INTERACT 2021
proceedings format to Jose Abdelnour-Nocera at abdejos[at]uwl.ac.uk
Deadline: 31st of May 2023
Notification of Acceptance: 8th of June 2023
Each submission will be reviewed by two reviewers from the larger IFIP
TC13.8 community. Participation in the workshop requires an accepted
position paper.

Subject: [WI] CfP Workshop on Social and Human Aspects of Business

The 16th Workshop on Social and Human Aspects of Business Process
Management (BPMS2'23)
As part of BPM 2023 21st International Conference on Business Process
Management
September 11, 2023, Utrecht, The Netherlands
Call for Papers
Deadline for workshop paper submissions: May 30, 2023
Workshop Theme
The involvement of human aspects in Business Process Management takes
place both on a social and individual level. Social information systems
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. Integrating 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. Integrating 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 are therefore called two- or multi-sided markets.
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., 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, speeding up decisions, etc. Social information systems
enable value-creating interactions such as weak ties, social production,
and 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. Using value-creating interactions is tightly
intertwined with new forms of involvement of human beings in 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. It is
necessary to reflect on Human-Human interactions and responsibility, in
a virtual/digital environment where everything becomes information.
Digital assistants such as Alexa integrate individuals into processes
that could not interact with conventional computers. In this way, new
forms of interaction between processes and humans arise. Furthermore,
individuals must integrate 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. Social Business Process Management is the use of
Social information systems to support one or multiple phases of the
business process life cycle.
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/nonpredictable; production/collaborative/ad hoc)
- Use of Wikis, Blogs etc. to support business processes
- Reflections on Human-Human interactions and responsibility, in a
virtual/digital environment where everything becomes information: Social
networks, social engineering, discernment, reflection vs. reflex,
ethics, responsibility, citizenship.
- 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 human beings acting in
business processes, e.g. process mining, natural language processing,
large language models, etc.
- Algorithmic management
- Crowdsourcing
- Assistants such as Google, Alexa, Siri etc. in business process
management and business processes
- New interfaces to business processes: chatbots, virtual reality,
augmented reality etc.
- Reflections on Human-Human interactions and responsibility, in a
virtual/digital environment where everything becomes information: Social
networks, social engineering, discernment, reflection vs. reflex,
ethics, responsibility, citizenship.
- 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 BPMS2'22 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 the 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. Short papers will be published in separate CEUR proceedings.
Submission
Prospective authors are invited to submit papers for presentation in any
of the areas listed above. Only papers in English will be accepted. The
length of full papers must not exceed 12 pages (There is no possibility
to buy additional pages). Position papers and tool reports should be no
longer than 6 pages. Papers should be submitted in the new LNBIP format
(http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-7-487211-0). Papers
must present original research contributions not concurrently submitted
elsewhere. The title page must contain a short abstract, a
classification of the topics covered, preferably using the list of
topics above, and an indication of the submission category (regular
paper/position paper/tool report).
Please use Easychair for submitting your paper:
https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=bpm2023
The paper selection will be based on the relevance of a paper to the
main topics, as well as upon its quality and potential to generate
relevant discussion. All the workshop papers will be published by
Springer as a post-proceeding volume (to be sent around 4 months after
the workshop) in their Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing
(LNBIP) series.
Activities
All papers will be published on the workshop wiki (www.bpms2.org) before
the workshop so that everybody can learn about the problems that are
important for other participants. A blog will be used to encourage and
support discussions. The workshop will consist of long and short paper
presentations, brainstorming sessions, and discussions. The workshop
report will be created collaboratively using a wiki. A special issue
over all workshops will be published in a journal (decision in progress).

Location
=======
FOIS 2023 consists of a physical meeting and a virtual meeting:
An in-person only meeting in Sherbrooke, Quebec from July 17 to 20, 2023
that will be very much like a traditional conference with keynotes,
regular talks, workshops and tutorials and plenty of social and
networking opportunities. This part will not have a remote participation
option, but we plan on recording selected talks (e.g. keynotes).
This will be followed by an online part to be held from September 18 to
20, 2023 that offers an opportunity for presentation and discussion of
additional papers that were not presented at the physical meeting in
Sherbrooke.

5th Workshop on Artificial Intelligence and Model-Driven Engineering
(MDE Intelligence 2023)
October 1-6, 2023. Västerås, Sweden
https://mde-intelligence.github.io/ <https://mde-intelligence.github.io/>
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

THEME & GOALS
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Artificial Intelligence (AI) has become part of everyone's life. It is
used by companies to exploit the information they collect to improve the
products and/or services they offer and, wanted or unwanted, it is
present in almost every device around us. Lately, AI is also impacting
all aspects of the system and software development lifecycle, from their
upfront specification to their design, testing, deployment and
maintenance, with the main goal of helping engineers produce systems and
software faster and with better quality while being able to handle ever
more complex systems and software.
There is no doubt that MDE has been a means to tame until now part of
this complexity. However, its adoption by industry still relies on their
capacity to manage the underlying methodological changes including among
other things the adoption of new tools. To go one step further, we
believe there is a clear need for AI-empowered MDE, which will push the
limits of "classic" MDE and provide the right techniques to develop the
next generation of highly complex model-based system and software
systems engineers will have to design tomorrow.
This workshop provides a forum to discuss, study and explore the
opportunities and challenges raised by the integration of AI and MDE.
We would like to address topics such as how to choose, evaluate and
adapt AI techniques to Model-Driven Engineering as a way to improve
current system and software modeling and generation processes in order
to increase the benefits and reduce the costs of adopting MDE. We
believe that AI artifacts will empower the MDE tools and boost hence the
advantages, and then adoption, of MDE at industry level.
At the same time, AI is software (and complex software, in fact), we
also believe that such AI-powered MDE approach will also benefit the
design of AI artifacts themselves and specially to face the challenge of
designing "trustable" AI software.
Last but not least, although AI is the most popular branch of computer
science to create and simulate intelligence, we also believe that any
kind of technique that provides human cognitive capabilities and helps
creating "intelligent" software are also in the scope of this workshop.
An example would be the knowledge representation techniques and
ontologies that can be useful on its own or support other kinds of AI
techniques.

TOPICS OF INTEREST
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Model-driven engineering (MDE) and artificial intelligence (AI) are two
separate fields in computer science, which can clearly benefit from
cross-pollination and collaboration. There are at least two ways in
which such integration—which we call MDE Intelligence—can manifest:
* Artificial Intelligence for MDE. MDE can benefit from integrating AI
concepts and ideas to increase its power: flexibility, user experience,
quality, etc. For example, using model transformations through
search-based approaches, or by increasing the ability to abstract from
partially formed, manual sketches into fully-shaped and formally
specified meta-models and editors.
* MDE for Artificial Intelligence. AI is software, and as such, it can
benefit from integrating concepts and ideas from MDE that have been
proven to improve software development. For example, using
domain-specific languages allows domain experts to directly express and
manipulate their problems while providing an auditable conversion
pipeline. Together this can improve trust in and safety of AI
technologies. Similarly, MDE technologies can contribute to the goal of
fair and explainable AI.
Topics of interest for the workshop include, but are not limited to:
