-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [WI] Call for Papers - iPat2021 Date: Thu, 15 Apr 2021 08:26:31 +0000 From: Hinz, Oliver <ohinz(a)wiwi.uni-frankfurt.de> Reply-To: Hinz, Oliver <ohinz(a)wiwi.uni-frankfurt.de> To: wi(a)lists.kit.edu <wi(a)lists.kit.edu> iPat 2021 Call for Papers https://www.ares-conference.eu/workshops/ipat-2021/ <https://www.ares-conference.eu/workshops/ipat-2021/> Mobile information and communication technology have become virtually ubiquitous due to the proliferation of smartphones and tablet computers; large sections of the society use this technology to their advantage. However, this convenience comes along with a growing collection and assessment of the users’ personal data. Research has shown that most users are often unaware of this increasing infringement of their privacy. Nevertheless, there is a group of users that expresses concern about the collection of their personal data. These users might be highly motivated to protect their data but lack the ability and technical expertise to do so. In order to support both user groups in raising their awareness of privacy and protecting their data, an interdisciplinary approach is needed to develop privacy-enhancing technologies. These technologies should address not only the technical aspect, but also aspects related to usability, psychology, economy, sociology, philosophy and law. This interdisciplinary workshop, thus, seeks submissions from a wide range of disciplines (computer science, usability, law, economics, psychology, sociology, philosophy, ethics, …) that cover the various aspects of security, privacy and trust. ** *Topics of interests*include, but are not limited to: ·(Mobile) Security, privacy and trust ·Mental models of security, privacy and trust ·Usable and transparency-enhancing security and privacy ·(Explainable) Artificial intelligence/machine learning ·Trust in, of and for data ·Data processing and transparency ·Data protection law and digital rights in theory and practice ·Mass surveillance and law enforcement (public/private) ·Digital nudging and dark patterns *Important Dates* Submission Deadline May 17, 2021 Author Notification June 01, 2021 Proceedings Version June 13, 2021 ARES EU Symposium August 17, 2021 All-Digital Conference August 17 – August 20, 2021 *---* *Prof. Dr. Oliver Hinz | Professur für Wirtschaftsinformatik und Informationsmanagement * Fachbereich Wirtschaftswissenschaften Goethe Universität Frankfurt | Theodor-W.-Adorno-Platz 4 | D-60629 Frankfurt am Main | Germany _ohinz(a)wiwi.uni-frankfurt.de <mailto:ohinz@wiwi.uni-frankfurt.de>_| _www.wiim.uni-frankfurt.de <www.wiim.uni-frankfurt.de >_| Tel. +49 (0)69 798 34675 | Fax +49 (0)69 798 33910 DFG-Sonderforschungsbereich SFB1053 "MAKI – Multi-Mechanismen-Adaption für das künftige Internet <http://www.maki.tu-darmstadt.de/>" DFG-Graduiertenkolleg GRK2050 "Privatheit und Vertrauen für mobile Nutzer <https://www.privacy-trust.tu-darmstadt.de/de/home/>" Künstliche Intelligenz für Smart Living "ForeSight <https://www.foresight-plattform.de/>" efl – The Data Science Institute <http://www.efinancelab.de/> Evidenzgeleitetes Pandemiemanagement „EgePan <https://www.netzwerk-universitaetsmedizin.de/projekte/evipan>“ – Netzwerk Universitätsmedizin -- Mailing-Liste: wi(a)lists.kit.edu Administrator: wi-request(a)lists.kit.edu Konfiguration: https://www.lists.kit.edu/wws/info/wi

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] First call for papers: 16th TEAR 2021 @ IEEE CBI 2021 and IEEE EDOC 2021 Date: Thu, 15 Apr 2021 10:21:14 +0200 From: Erik Proper <erik.proper(a)gmail.com> Reply-To: e.proper(a)acm.org To: siksleden(a)cs.uu.nl, dbworld(a)cs.wisc.edu, aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org, members(a)ciaonetwork.org CC: Florian Matthes <matthes(a)tum.de>, Ömer Uludağ <oemer.uludag(a)tum.de> Call for papers 16th TEAR 2021 - New frontiers In collaboration with IEEE CBI 2021 and IEEE EDOC 2021 Since 2006 the international TEAR workshop series <http://www.tear-series.org/> has brought together Enterprise Architecture (EA) researchers and practitioners from different research communities, and has provided a forum to present EA research results from academia and practice and to discuss future EA research directions. This year’s TEAR workshop will see a new online format, while addressing new frontiers in EA-related research. New frontiers in EA-related research The field of Enterprise Architecture (EA) has gained considerable maturity over the last years. EA significantly contributes to organizations’ need to adapt increasingly fast to changing customer requirements and business goals. New societal and technological (including AI, IoT, Digital Twins, etc) trends now provide new challenges and opportunities to the field of EA. What remains core to EA is the need for a multi-disciplinary approach aiming for a coherent design of enterprises across all relevant aspects, such as services, processes, IT support, the role of human actors, etc. Therefore, there is a need to consider new frontiers in EA research, taking us into the direction of what might be termed “Enterprise Governance 4.0”. Therefore this year’s TEAR workshop has a broadened scope, including several new topics: - Enterprise governance 4.0 - Including the use of Enterprise Digital Twins, AI and IoT to support the governance and management of enterprises, and their coherence, in all their facets. - Enterprise cyber risk management - Managing cyber risks, which include e.g. cyber security risks, but also other risks, such as the negative consequences of AI-based errors, systemic ripple effects, etc. - Digital transformation - Consequences for EA (or the role of EA in) digital transformation, including e.g. migration to data stream architectures, big data, IoT, etc. - Enterprise architecture decision-making and decision-execution - Including drivers for change, architecture governance, stakeholder management, etc. - Enterprise architecture modeling and analysis - Including modeling languages, model-based analysis and analytics, reference models, viewpoints, human-model interaction, etc. - Relevant research approaches in terms of research methodologies and theories. - Cases and implementations We cordially invite submissions of three types of paper, reporting on original research results related to EA that have not been accepted or submitted for publication elsewhere: 1. Regular research papers. These papers will be reviewed based on their scientific and technical contribution, originality, and relevance. 2. Emergent research papers. These papers involve novel research ideas and challenges (by doctoral students, practitioners, or senior researchers) related to EA. 3. Experience reports. These papers reflect practical and personal industry experiences of EA practitioners, including EA related challenges seen and the approach(es) taken. These papers are advised to follow the STARR template (Situation, Tasks, Actions, Results, and Reflection). New workshop format The workshop is organized, in a collaboration between the IEEE CBI 2021 <https://cbi2021.events.unibz.it/> (September 1-3) and the IEEE EDOC 2021 (October 25-29) conferences. The workshop part of TEAR 2021 will take place during CBI 2021 (both events will take place online) in terms of a writer's workshop format that more explicitly focuses on in-depth discussions of the paper submissions with the aim to improve these papers further. During the writer's workshop the strengths and weaknesses of the different papers will be discussed, while accentuating positive aspects and suggesting improvements. As such, an active participation of the authors and audience is expected. Improved (in the sense of maturing and / or extending) high-quality papers will be accepted to an EA track at the EDOC 2021 conference. Based on the paper submitted to the writer’s workshop, and the presentations and discussions during the writer’s workshop, a selection of papers will be made which potentially qualify for EDOC 2021 inclusion. These papers will be shepherded by an experienced reviewer from the EA community, towards potential EDOC 2021 inclusion. This new workshop format aims to help authors in maturing their papers, while also creating a more open and constructive review and feedback process. Key steps in the submission, selection & acceptance process 1. Authors: Submission of initial workshop papers 2. PC: Review of initial submissions 3. PC: Selection of submissions to be included in the writer’s workshop 4. PC: Initial feedback to authors 5. Authors: Submission of improved version by authors of papers accepted to the writer’s workshop 6. Organizers: All accepted submissions made available to the participants of the writer’s workshop 7.

Technological advances have been manifesting new and exciting avenues of interaction when children play games, ranging from board and card games, to videogames that are played on mobile devices, virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR) headsets, robotic systems, and social agents. These games encompass a wide range of applications aiming to provide educational benefits, promote development, enhance well-being, or simply enjoy leisure time. Along with the fun and excitement, these advancements also bring unique challenges in the game design process due to the inclusion of complex technology, the maximization of the players’ engagement and expectations and interests of the children. The player-centric approach of co-designing games with the target audience has a unique position as it involves creating the games for and with the children, allowing them to act as an equal stakeholder rather than simple users or informants. This half-day workshop aims to expose the researchers to collaborative techniques used in game design to create interactive and playful activities for children that involve contemporary technologies such as AR/VR and social agents. ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// CALL FOR PARTICIPATION AND TOPICS OF INTEREST This half-day workshop aims to expose researchers to collaborative techniques used in game design to create interactive and playful activities for children that involve contemporary technologies such as AR/VR and social agents. We plan to expose participants to multiple user modelling (e.g., user personas) and ideation techniques (e.g., body storming) used to engage children as design partners. Our ultimate goal is to illustrate how technology-agnostic the game design process can be when collaborative and participatory design techniques are used.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [computational.science] Invitation to join 2021 Spring School 'CVML Short Course - Machine Learning and Deep Neural Networks', 27-28th April 2021 (6th edition) Date: Mon, 12 Apr 2021 10:21:06 +0300 From: Ioanna Koroni <ioannakoroni(a)csd.auth.gr> To: computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org Dear Machine Learning and Deep Neural Networks engineers, scientists and enthusiasts, you are welcomed to register in this CVML Short e-course on 'Machine Learning and Deep Neural Networks', 27-28th April 2021: https://icarus.csd.auth.gr/spring-cvml-short-course-machine-learning-and-dee p-neural-networks/ It will take place as a two-day e-course (due to COVID-19 circumstances), hosted by the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH), Thessaloniki, Greece, providing a series of live lectures delivered through a tele-education platform. They will be complemented with on-line video recorded lectures and lecture pdfs, to facilitate international participants having time difference issues and to enable you to study at own pace. You can also self-assess your knowledge, by filling appropriate questionnaires (one per lecture). You will be provided programming exercises to improve your programming skills. It is part of the very successful CVML short course series that took place in the last three years. Course description 'Machine Learning and Deep Neural Networks' The short e-course consists of 16 1-hour live lectures organized in two Parts (1 Part per day): Part A lectures (8 hours) provide an in-depth presentation of Deep Neural Networks, which are at the forefront of AI advances today, starting with introduction to Machine Learning. Then the cornerstone DNN theory and technologies are presented: a) Artificial Neural Networks, Perceptron; b) Multilayer perceptron, Backpropagation; c) Deep neural networks. Both data classification and regression problems are treated. Convolutional NNs; d) Recurrent Neural Networks; e) Attention and Transformers. Applications follow in several image analysis, computer vision and autonomous system applications, notably: a) Deep learning for object detection and b) Deep Semantic Image Segmentation. Finally, Generative Adversarial Networks are presented that promise to revolutionize the way we create media/arts, while seriously threatening our democracy with fake data creation and spread. Part B lectures (8 hours) provide fan in-depth presentation of Machine Learning to complement DNNs. Unsupervised Learning (Data Clustering) is first detailed, allowing us to find structure and extract concepts/knowledge from huge high-dimensionality data. Then Supervised Learning (Data Classification) techniques are presented, notably: a) Decision surfaces (whose special case is DNNs and SVMs) and b) Distance based classification. Dimensionality reduction techniques are overviewed, allowing us to visualize high-dimensionality data found in most applications, ranging from Medicine to Financial Engineering. Kernel methods are presented that can boost performance of any linear ML operation (e.g., PCA, K-means etc). Bayesian learning provides a unified theoretical framework that can encompass many of the ML approaches. Deep Reinforcement Learning is also presented, as it is an essential element in novel Robotics/Control and other decision-making application domains. Finally, CVML programming tools (e.g., DNN frameworks, BLAS/cuBLAS, DNN and CV libraries) are overviewed, as they allow fast application of all the above knowledge in almost any application domain. Course lectures Part A: Deep Neural networks (first day, 8 lectures) 1. Introduction to Machine Learning 2. Artificial Neural Networks, Perceptron 3. Multilayer perceptron. Backpropagation 4.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [wkwi] [ACM CSCW 2021] Call for Panels - Deadline June 11 Date: Mon, 12 Apr 2021 16:07:07 +0200 From: Mateusz Dolata <dolata(a)ifi.uzh.ch> Reply-To: Mateusz Dolata <dolata(a)ifi.uzh.ch> To: CSCW-ALL(a)jiscmail.ac.uk <CSCW-ALL(a)JISCMAIL.AC.UK>, CHI-ANNOUNCEMENTS(a)listserv.acm.org <CHI-ANNOUNCEMENTS(a)LISTSERV.ACM.ORG>, wi(a)lists.kit.edu, wkwi(a)listserv.dfn.de, SBC-l(a)sbc.org.br, eusset(a)listserv.zimt.uni-siegen.de, aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org, fg-cscw(a)lists.gi.de — [ACM CSCW 2021] Call for Panels - Deadline June 11 — — https://cscw.acm.org/2021/panels/ <https://cscw.acm.org/2021/posters/> — CSCW 2021 (held virtually) invites panel proposals to become part of the conference between 23rd and 27th October 2021. Important Dates Friday, June 11, 2021: Deadline for submissions due 23:59 Anywhere on Earth (AoE) time. Friday, July 23, 2021: Notification of acceptance. Friday, August 6, 2021: Camera-ready submissions due 23:59 AoE Saturday – Wednesday, October 23-27, 2021: CSCW Conference What is a Panel? A panel is a collection of people discussing a topic important to our field with energy, insight, and verve. Great panels are an excellent way to generate debate, raise new and interesting issues at CSCW, and hear multiple points of view on a given topic. CSCW panels are a forum for discussing provocative, controversial, innovative, emerging, boundary-spanning, and boundary-breaking issues. While paper sessions provide detailed discussions of recently completed work, panels provide an opportunity to hear from researchers in the field about what is on the horizon—or what is already here but not yet recognized, acknowledged, or discussed. Criteria for Successful Panels The best panels provide opportunities for audience participation. We especially encourage proposals for panels that: Discuss relevant, important, and critical topics Engage the audience and provoke discussion Bring several disciplines, methods, or approaches into productive conversation Represent a diversity of individuals, who can bring multiple perspectives to the topic We also invite submitters to not only form panels with close colleagues who share similar points of view but also to reach out to prospective panelists from across the CSCW community and beyond. Feel free to contact other CSCW scholars, or use media like the #cscw2021 Twitter hashtag, or CSCW Community, CSCW Meta Facebook groups to try and find panelists who might want to discuss a particular topic from various approaches. We are also interested in panels that include representation from practitioners, activists, and scholars from other fields that may provide additional insight into the topic. Special Topics for 2021 The panels chairs are especially interested in proposals around the following topics: Structural inequality and CSCW’s role in countering historical injustice Speculative design and data future(s) Social computing and COVID-19 Ways that CSCW researchers can impact policy and inform policymaking Potential Formats for 2021 CSCW 2021 is a virtual conference. We believe that presents both challenges and opportunities for panels and we are open to a range of formats for panels. As a result, we request that anyone proposing a panel describe the proposed format as well as the topic or content. We encourage organizers to be both creative and reasonable in their proposals and to consider the labor and technology requirements they would need for their panel to be successful. Here are a couple of ideas for structuring virtual panels, and we invite organizers to share their own ideas: “Traditional” synchronous panels held virtually using standard video conferencing. Short, asynchronous video presentations from each panelist (5 min max) paired with synchronous component so that participants and panels can interact A virtual conversation between panelists with chat-based audience Q&A using a podcasting platform. The panel chairs are happy to discuss possibilities with proposers ahead of submission and to stay in touch as details about the conference become clear. Submitting a Proposal Panels proposals must be submitted by the submission deadline and each proposal should include an Extended Abstract submitted as a PDF. The extended abstract should be a maximum of 7 pages (not including references) in the new single columns ACM Master Article Submission Templates. This is the same template used for full papers and not the former landscape template used for extended abstract submissions at CSCW. Within the 7-page constraint, proposals should include: Overview of the panel’s topic(s) and its relevance to the CSCW community Proposed structure and format of the panel, including how panel organizers will: Encourage interaction with the audience Ensure the panel is accessible to all participants (see ACCESS tips for ensuring accessibility) Whether and for how long panelists expect synchronous interaction One-paragraph biographical sketches of the panelists including names, affiliations, and describing their expertise Any technical requirements Panel submissions should be e-mailed to the Panels Co-Chairs at panels2021(a)cscw.acm.org <mailto:panels2021@cscw.acm.org>. All questions should be directed to panels2021(a)cscw.acm.org <mailto:panels2021@cscw.acm.org>.
