Damascus, Homs, Lattakia, Aleppo, April 6th to 13th 2002 · Syrian Computer Society · Gesellschaft für Informatik (GI) · Otto-von-Guericke-Universität Magdeburg (Faculty of Computer Science) · Deutsch-Syrische Gesellschaft für Informatik (German-Syrian Computer Society) Conference Focus ---------------- The ministry of higher educution of Syrian Arabic Republic, the Syrian Computer Society, the German Computer Society and the German-Syrian Computer Society announce the ET2EB Conference, which will be held in Damascus, Homs, Lattakia and Aleppo in April 2002. The focus of the conference is to bring together researchers and practioneers for discussion of computer science topics which are strongly relevant for countries which a growing potential in information technology, like Syria. Based on the commonly available Internet-Technology a borderless development of information systems offers the opportunity to set up a network of software companies in the different parts of the world to establish virtual enterprises. In that way the existing pool of highly motivated and educated computer scientists can solve bottlenecks in established software developing companies. On the other hand the open cultural perspective can support a joined view for the world. Here the very topical field of E-Business should be the starting point of common initiatives. For E-Business concepts and results of numerous fields of computer science are highly relevant. For the following topics we like to invite contributions or suggestions for Workshops · Database Systems · Computer Networks, LAN and WAN-Technology · Simulation, Computer Graphics, and Multimedia · Bioinformatics / Medical Information Systems · Engineering Systems, CAD, and CAM · XML, HTML, Data Exchange Standards · E-Commerce Projects · E-Business and E-Banking · E-Learning · Unified Modelling Language, and other approaches · Knowledge Management · Risk Management · Information Management · Artificial Intelligence Approaches · Electronic Government and E-Governance The main focus of the conference is to set up a community which provides a global and integrated view to this topics and to start inititiaves in Syria. For that the conference offers a wide range of additional activities, e.g. open discussions, the visit of different universities in Syria, historical and cultural places. The conference is supported by the Syrian Ministry of Higher Education. All costs for flight, accommodation, hosting and cultural activies during the conference are included in the conference fee. Contributions, Important Dates ------------------------------ Paper Contributions, Suggestions for Workshops, Projects, Panel Discussions should be sent to Jubran Rajub (rajub(a)iti.cs.uni-magdeburg.de) until February 15th, 2002. Suggestions and abstracts should not exceed two pages. The notification of acceptance is announce for the February 28th, 2002. The final papers have to be submitted until March 15th, 2002, otherwise the contribution can not be published in the proceedings. Submitted papers must be free of copyright. Since the audience is very different to other conferences, also papers presented before will be accepted as contributions.

at Budapest in connection with the 15th European Conference on Object Oriented Programming (18-22 June 2001). Academics, researchers and practitioners interested in all approaches aimed at achieving the integration of enterprise systems are invited to submit a paper to this workshop. Please refer to http//www.site-project.org.uk/events/ecoop2001_workshop/ and the ECOOP 2001 website (http//ecoop2001.inf.elte.hu/) for further information concerning the workshop, conference and venue. *** Call for Papers *** The expansion of the Internet and the growth of e-commerce systems have accentuated pre-existing problems related with systems interoperability and the definition of common semantics throughout business organisations. Communication and exchange of data and information between business systems is nowadays dependent on the definition, modelling, design and implementation of underlying concepts shared across organisations. The issues involved are not just related to infrastructure and technology. Indeed fundamental problems exist around the understanding of what `concepts' are shared, how they relate and what mechanisms should be adopted to allow systems to communicate and interoperate at all levels. Genericity mechanisms, such as patterns, frameworks and components, have the potential for defining, modelling, designing and implementing shared concepts. Such mechanisms have inherited many object-oriented principles and built upon them to enhance the generalised nature of business problems and solutions both vertically (within the same domain) and horizontally (across different domains). Increasingly, these are supported by emerging "ontological" definitions and related languages (e.g. XML) designed to exemplify genericity. The potential contribution of XML to the definition of business ontologies and semantics is also relevant. Researchers and practitioners world-wide are exploring the possibility of defining interoperable industry specifications based on XML and the definition of an Ontology Markup Language. The adoption and implementation of genericity mechanisms and ontological "tools" is difficult to implement in "greenfield" situations. These difficulties are exacerbated in "brownfield" situations in which clear architectural separations do not exist and multiple technologies do exist. In light of this the aim of the workshop is to discuss - How shared business ontologies can be defined and represented - How the underlying semantics can be represented and implemented through object and component-based technologies - The role of mechanisms of generic abstraction in the definition of common semantics - The role of XML in the definition of business ontologies The workshop will follow these phases 1. Presentation of reviewed papers followed by discussion and questions 2. Participants will be divided into groups of interest to discuss specific subtopics emerging from the previous phase 3. General discussion of points drawn by the groups in phase two 4. Conclusion *** Submission Guidelines *** MERIT 2001 seeks high quality submissions in two categories - Full technical papers, describing original, unpublished research (10 pages). - Work-in-progress papers, describing on-going work and interim results (6 pages). All papers will be peer-reviewed by at least two referees and selected papers will be made available to participants online prior to the workshop. Papers should be written using the author kit by Springer Verlag (http//www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html) for typesetting. *** Important Dates *** Submission of papers: April 30, 2001 Notification of acceptance: May 21, 2001 Camera ready copies: June 1, 2001 Day of workshop: June 19, 2001 *** Submission Method *** Papers must be submitted by e-mail to the organisers (Sergio.deCesare(a)brunel.ac.uk or Mark.Lycett(a)brunel.ac.uk). *** Programme Committee *** The programme committee is composed of the following academics and industrial practitioners. Paul Allen (Computer Associates, UK) Sergio de Cesare (Brunel University, UK) Grant Holland (Sun Microsystems, USA) Mark Lycett (Brunel University, UK) Rob Macredie (Brunel University, UK) Tony Morgan (Unisys, UK) Roberto Zicari (J.W Goethe University, Germany) ___________________________________________________________________ | The Communications of AIS and The Journal of AIS are electronic | publications sponsored by the Association for Information Systems | JAIS: http://jais.aisnet.org/ - CAIS: http://cais.aisnet.org/ |----------------------- ISWorld Net Footer ------------------------ | Need help with ISWorld? -> http://isds.bus.lsu.edu/cvoc/isworld/ | If you can't find an answer contact isworld_manager(a)cornell.edu |___________________________________________________________________ -------------------------------------------------------
