https://www.frontiersin.org/research-topics/50413/human-centered-artificial…
20 DAYS LEFT ==> Manuscript Extension Submission Deadline 19 July 2023
The focus of this Research Topic is on advancements in Human-Centered
Artificial Intelligence (HCAI) systems for Industry 5.0. Such systems
view AI as a critical component for augmenting human work and extending
human capabilities within an industrial environment, thus they can be
considered key enablers for the “Operator 5.0” concept. The aim of this
Research Topic is to explore methods, tools and cases in which AI
systems and humans work as teams within industrial settings in order to
solve problems together and achieve goals that were unreachable by
either humans or machines alone.
We welcome submissions on the following topics but not limited to:
- Design issues for multimodal human-AI interactions in the industrial
environment
- Digital intelligent assistants, softbots and chatbots for production
management
- Artificial Intelligence for the operator in the Industry 5.0 environment
- Cognitive computing and HCAI engineering
- Explainable and transparent AI in smart manufacturing
- Usability and user experience of HCAI systems
- Methods, and tools to manage and monitor industrial HCAI systems
- Applications of HCAI systems in smart manufacturing

ManComp 2023
8th Workshop on Managed Complexity
https://wwwswt.informatik.uni-rostock.de/ManComp2023/
1-day workshop
September 15, 2023
University of Camerino - Ascoli Piceno, Italy
in conjunction with BIR 2023
https://bir2023.unicam.it/
Managing complexity has a long tradition for algorithms and general
problems. However, it is an important issue also in Business Informatics
domain. Here the complexity of different systems and systems of systems
has to be managed. While complexity usually associates with large or
very large scale systems still managing complexity is important even for
systems with small sizes operating in complex environment. Nowadays
informatics requires handling complexity at different levels and
configurations of social, physical, enterprise, software, and hardware
systems. The workshop is planned to focus on approaches and methods for
managing complexity in the domain of applied informatics that may
concern interplay of systems and ecosystems of various sizes and
substances. Its purpose is to share and transfer knowledge on complexity
identification, representation, controlling and reduction as well as to
exploit possible synergies in development of innovative complexity
handling strategies, approaches, and methods.
The ultimate goal of the workshop is bringing together researchers and
practitioners to discuss theoretical approaches or real-life case
studies featuring success and/or failure stories in managing complexity.
It welcomes seeking and discussing answers to such complexity management
questions as:
* How is complexity divided?
* What kinds of models are to be specified?
* What is the role of system architecture in complexity handling?
* How is the human recognized in the loop?
* What kind of rules are to be applied?
* In which way do patterns help?
* Which notation or ontologies are useful in complexity handling?
* How is knowledge reused?
* How is knowledge propagated?
* and many others.
Based on these discussions, we expect to deepen the understanding of
strategies, approaches, and methods in managing complexity in enterprise
and software engineering. A cross-pollination of experiences in both
domains is assumed.
Three types of submissions are welcomed: position papers, research
papers, and reports. All types should treat a topic from the workshop
themes.
* Position papers (2-6 pages): Such papers should state the position of
the authors regarding any topic of the workshop.
* Reports (6-8 pages) Experience reports and case studies are expected
to be submitted in this category.
* Research papers (10-12 pages): Research papers should describe
innovative approaches.

Subject: Call for Papers - VaMoS 2024
Date: Thu, 22 Jun 2023 12:04:31 +0200
From: Elias Kuiter <kuiter(a)ovgu.de>
-- [Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this email.] --
*VaMoS 2024*
/18th International Working Conference on Variability Modelling of
Software-Intensive Systems/
7-9 February 2024 | Bern, Switzerland | vamosconf.net/2024
<https://vamosconf.net/2024>
*Call for Papers*
Supported by its strong community, the 17 previous editions of the VaMoS
workshop successfully bootstrapped research on modelling and managing
variability of software systems, as witnessed by the many related
breakthroughs published in top-tier conferences and journals. Embracing
its new status as a working conference, VaMoS more than ever aims to
bring together researchers and practitioners to share ideas, results and
experiences about their quest for mastering variability. As such, in
addition to its usual call for technical research papers, VaMoS strongly
supports the participation of aspiring young researchers as well as
practitioners from industry.
*Scope*
Most of today's software is made variable to allow for more adaptability
and economies of scale, while many development practices (DevOps, A/B
testing, parameter tuning, continuous integration, …) support this goal
of engineering software variants. VaMoS is the ideal venue to explore
the underlying problems (automation, traceability, combinatorial
explosion, …) and their solutions. Moreover, variability is prominent in
many systems - not only in software. For these reasons, we welcome
contributions from related areas (configuration, configurable systems,
product lines, adaptive systems, generators, …) as well as from new and
emerging domains where techniques to manage complexity introduced by
variability are applied (IoT systems, 3D printing, autonomous and deep
learning systems, software-defined networks, security, generative art,
games, research software, …). Topics of interest include but are not
limited to:
* Variability modelling and realisation
* Variability in emerging domains/technologies
* Automated reasoning on variability
* Variability in AI methods
* AI for variability
* Variability across the software lifecycle
* Variability in adaptive systems
* Test and verification of variable systems
* Configuration management
* Evolution of variability-intensive systems
* Runtime variability
* Variability mining
* Visualisation techniques for variability
* Reverse-engineering of variability
* Economic aspects of variability
* Variability and quality requirements
* Industrial development of variable systems
* Experience reports from managing variability in practice
As a working conference, VaMoS invites different contributions with the
aim of expanding the community and further stimulating discussions:
*Technical Papers*
We welcome original and unpublished research ideas, methods, techniques,
empirical studies and surveys related to the management of software
variability. We particularly encourage the submission of
research-in-progress and vision papers describing preliminary results,
problem statements and open issues, especially in emerging domains where
variability poses new challenges. Submissions should be up to 4 pages (+
2 additional pages for references only) for *short papers*, or up to 8
pages (+ 2 additional pages for references only) for *long papers*. Each
submission will be reviewed by 3 different reviewers following a
double-anonymous review process in which the identity of authors will
not be known to the program committee at any time during the process.
The papers submitted must not reveal the authors' identities in any way.
*
Authors should leave out author names and affiliations from the body
of their submission.
*
Authors should ensure that any citation to related work by
themselves is written in the third person, that is, "the prior work
of XYZ" as opposed to "our prior work".
*
Authors should avoid providing URLs to author-revealing sites
(tools, data sets). Any supplemental sites should be fully
anonymized. While open science is encouraged for all authors of all
papers, visiting such sites should not be needed to conduct reviews.
*
Authors should anonymize author-revealing company names yet can
provide general characteristics of the organizations involved needed
to understand the context of the paper.
Authors having further questions on double-anonymous reviewing are
encouraged to contact the Program Chairs by email. Papers that ignore
the double-anonymous requirement and overtly reveal authorship will be
desk-rejected.
Abstract submission: *10 October 2023 (AoE).*
Paper submission: *17 October 2023 (AoE).*
*Variability-in-Practice Papers*
We welcome contributions from practitioners, industry, and researchers
describing real-world, variability-related problems or solutions,
including methodologies, tool demonstration and experience reports.
Submissions should be up to 4 pages (+ 2 additional pages for references
only) and will be reviewed by 3 different reviewers. The review for
variability-in-practice papers will follow a single-blind review process.
Deadlines for this track are the same as for the technical track:
Abstract submission: *10 October 2023 (AoE).*
Paper submission: *17 October 2023 (AoE).*
*New and Controversial Ideas Papers*
As last year, we are including a "New and Controversial Ideas" track.
This track is meant for authors to present short (lightning) talks on
new (not yet highly evaluated) areas of research or to state positions
(possibly controversial) on the directions or lack of directions, on any
topic relevant to the VaMoS scientific community. The papers will be 2
pages (+1 for references) in the conference format. Authors' names and
affiliations should be included in the submissions.
For this track, the deadline for submission is *27 October 2023 (AoE)*.
These papers will receive a lightweight review, but should not simply be
a shortened version of an existing paper. Reviewers will evaluate these
papers on how well they articulate a new idea and/or position by
providing a compelling argument as to:
*
why the topic is important for the VaMoS community,
*
if the idea or position has potential to work, and
*
the potential of the topic to foster interesting discussions at this
year's conference.
*Format and Submission Site*
All submissions must be written in English and follow the double-column
ACM template <https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template>
with the options |sigconf|, |review|, and |anonymous| (for technical
papers only): |\documentclass[sigconf,review,anonymous]{acmart}|. At
least one author is expected to attend the conference and present the
accepted paper.
Submissions will be handled via EasyChair.
<https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=vamos2024>
Accepted contributions will be published by ACM in the conference
proceedings.
*Ten-years Most Influential Paper*
We are proud to celebrate VaMoS' own history and outstanding past
publications. As such, we will continue the 10-year most influential
paper award tradition and will reward papers from the earlier VaMoS
editions that had the highest impact on the community and beyond.
*Important Dates*
Abstract/Paper Submission: *10/17 October 2023 (AoE).*
New and Controversial Ideas Paper Submission: *27 October 2023 (AoE).*
Notification: *14 November 2023 (AoE).*
Final Version: *28 November 2023 (AoE).*
Conference: *7-9 February 2024 (AoE).*

Subject: [AISWorld] EJIS Special Issue - Embracing Contrarian Thinking:
Value-Reflexive Research for a Digital World
Date: Mon, 19 Jun 2023 14:39:16 +0200
From: Markus Zimmer <markus.zimmer(a)leuphana.de>
To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org, wkwi(a)listserv.dfn.de
+++ Short Call for Papers +++
Digital technologies and our world are deeply enmeshed shaping our lives
into a digital world.
These technologies (e.g., artificial intelligence, blockchain, social
media platforms) relate to values in overt and covert ways. They bolster
or challenge values that frequently remain unquestioned and hidden but
do surface when examining the intended and unintended technology effects.
For research to co-enact a better digital world, we need to reflect on
and problematize the values inscribed in technology. In this call, we
ask researchers to embrace contrarian thinking seeking alternative
viewpoints that may contradict prevailing attitudes or trends to
understand phenomena.
Specifically, we ask scholars, "Which values do we value?" and encourage
them to collectively engage in reflection and action on how values
underpin, inform, and perform the digital world in which we live. We
seek studies that exemplify how we as a community can engage with the
values in digital technologies, their design, development, and use.
Some of the key topics we are interested in include (but are not limited
to):
• Value-reflexive research into digital transformation, artificial
intelligence, privacy, cybersecurity, digital infrastructures,
blockchain, social media and other digital technologies
• Value-driven digital transformation of society, organisations and the
individual
• Values in digital innovation, business model design, business process
design, data analytics, digital entrepreneurship, etc.
• Values in designing, implementing and adopting digital technologies
and policies for enacting cybersecurity, privacy, and data protection, etc.
• Value positions in the design and development of digital technology
• Values in the governance of digital technology (e.g., artificial
intelligence, blockchain, digital infrastructures)
• The role of values in user experience design and human computer

We are pleased to invite you to submit papers to the 16th ACM SIGPLAN
International Conference on Software Language Engineering (SLE 2023),
held in conjunction with SPLASH 2023. The conference will be hosted in
Cascais, Lisbon, Portugal on October 22-27, 2023.
---------------------------
Topics of Interest
---------------------------
SLE covers software language engineering rather than engineering a
specific software language. Topics of interest include, but are not
limited to:
* Software Language Design and Implementation
- Approaches to and methods for language design
- Static semantics (e.g., design rules, well-formedness constraints)
- Techniques for specifying behavioral/executable semantics
- Generative approaches (incl. code synthesis, compilation)
- Meta-languages, meta-tools, language workbenches
* Software Language Validation
- Verification and formal methods for languages
- Testing techniques for languages
- Simulation techniques for languages
* Software Language Integration and Composition
- Coordination of heterogeneous languages and tools
- Mappings between languages (incl. transformation languages)
- Traceability between languages
- Deployment of languages to different platforms
* Software Language Maintenance
- Software language reuse
- Language evolution
- Language families and variability, language and software product lines
* Domain-specific approaches for any aspects of SLE (design,
implementation, validation, maintenance)
* Empirical evaluation and experience reports of language engineering tools
- User studies evaluating usability
- Performance benchmarks
- Industrial applications
* Synergies between Language Engineering and emerging/promising research
areas
- AI and ML language engineering (e.g., ML compiler testing, code
classification) Quantum language engineering (e.g., language design
for quantum machines)
- Language engineering for physical systems (e.g., CPS, IoT, digital twins)
- Socio-technical systems and language engineering (e.g., language
evolution to adapt to social requirements)
- Etc.
---------------------------
Types of Submissions
---------------------------
SLE accepts the following types of papers:
* Research papers: These are “traditional” papers detailing research
contributions to SLE. Papers may range from 6 to 12 pages in length
and may optionally include 2 further pages of bibliography/appendices.
Papers will be reviewed with an understanding that some results do not
need 12 full pages and may be fully described in fewer pages.
* New ideas/vision papers: These papers may describe new,
unconventional software language engineering research positions or
approaches that depart from standard practice. They can describe
well-defined research ideas that are at an early stage of
investigation. They could also provide new evidence to challenge
common wisdom, present new unifying theories about existing SLE
research that provides novel insight or that can lead to the
development of new technologies or approaches, or apply SLE technology
to radically new application areas. New ideas/vision papers must not
exceed 5 pages and may optionally include 1 further page of
bibliography/appendices.
* SLE Body of Knowledge: The SLE Body of Knowledge (SLEBoK) is a
community-wide effort to provide a unique and comprehensive
description of the concepts, best practices, tools, and methods
developed by the SLE community. In this respect, the SLE conference
will accept surveys, essays, open challenges, empirical observations,
and case study papers on the SLE topics. These can focus on, but are
not limited to, methods, techniques, best practices, and teaching
approaches. Papers in this category can have up to 20 pages, including
bibliography/appendices.
* Tool papers: These papers focus on the tooling aspects often
forgotten or neglected in research papers. A good tool paper focuses
on practical insights that will likely be useful to other implementers
or users in the future. Any of the SLE topics of interest are
appropriate areas for tool demonstrations. Submissions must not exceed
5 pages and may optionally include 1 further page of
bibliography/appendices. They may optionally include an appendix with
a demo outline/screenshots and/or a short video/screencast
illustrating the tool.
**Workshops**: Workshops will be organized by SPLASH. Please inform us
and contact the SPLASH organizers if you would like to organize a
workshop of interest to the SLE audience. Information on how to submit
workshops can be found on the SPLASH 2023 Website.

---------------------------
Format
---------------------------
Submissions have to use the ACM SIGPLAN Conference Format
"acmart"(http://sigplan.org/Resources/Author/#acmart-format); please
make sure that you always use the latest ACM SIGPLAN acmart LaTeX
template(https://www.acm.org/binaries/content/assets/publications/consolida…,
and that the document class definition is
`\documentclass[sigplan,anonymous,review]{acmart}`. Do not make any
changes to this format!
Ensure that your submission is legible when printed on a black and
white printer. In particular, please check that colors remain distinct
and font sizes in figures and tables are legible.
To increase fairness in reviewing, a double-blind review process has
become standard across SIGPLAN conferences. In this line, SLE will
follow the double-blind process. Author names and institutions should
be omitted from submitted papers, and references to the authors’ own
related work should be in the third person. No other changes are
necessary, and authors will not be penalized if reviewers are able to
infer their identities in implicit ways.
All submissions must be in PDF format. The submission website is:
https://sle23.hotcrp.com
---------------------------
Concurrent Submissions
---------------------------
Papers must describe unpublished work that is not currently submitted
for publication elsewhere as described by SIGPLAN’s Republication
Policy (http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication).
Submitters should also be aware of ACM’s Policy and Procedures on
Plagiarism (http://www.acm.org/publications/policies/plagiarism_policy).
Submissions that violate these policies will be desk-rejected.
---------------------------
Policy on Human Participant and Subject Research
---------------------------
Authors conducting research involving human participants and subjects
must ensure that their research comply with their local governing laws
and regulations and the ACM’s general principles as stated in the
ACM’s Publications Policy on Research Involving Human Participants and
Subjects
(https://www.acm.org/publications/policies/research-involving-human-particip…).
Submissions that violate this policy will be rejected.
---------------------------
Reviewing Process
---------------------------
All submitted papers will be reviewed by the program committee.
Research papers and tool papers will be evaluated concerning novelty,
correctness, significance, readability, and alignment with the
conference call. New ideas/vision papers will be evaluated primarily
concerning novelty, significance, readability, and alignment with the
conference call. SLEBoK papers will be reviewed on their significance,
readability, topicality and capacity of
presenting/evaluating/demonstrating a piece of BoK about SLE.
For fairness reasons, all submitted papers must conform to the above
instructions. Submissions that violate these instructions may be
rejected without review, at the discretion of the PC chairs.
---------------------------
Artifact Evaluation
---------------------------
For the seventh year, SLE will use an evaluation process for assessing
the quality of the artifacts on which papers are based to foster the
culture of experimental reproducibility. Authors of accepted research
papers are invited to submit artifacts. For more information, please
have a look at the Artifact Evaluation
(http://www.sleconf.org/2023/ArtifactEvaluation.html) page.
---------------------------
Awards
---------------------------
- **Distinguished paper**: Award for most notable paper, as determined
by the PC chairs based on the recommendations of the programme
committee.
- **Distinguished artifact**: Award for the artifact most
significantly exceeding expectations, as determined by the AEC chairs
based on the recommendations of the artifact evaluation committee.
---------------------------
Publication
---------------------------
