-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP: Special Track on AI for Tackling Dis/Misinformation during Pandemics @ ACM GoodIT2021 Date: Fri, 5 Mar 2021 02:48:04 +0000 From: Chilean Scholar <scholarshipchile(a)gmail.com> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org Call For Papers: Special Track on AI for Tackling Dis/Misinformation during Pandemics In conjunction with the ACM International Conference on Information Technology for Social Good (GoodIT 2021) The GoodIT conference is sponsored by ACM SIGCAS, the Association for Computing Machinery's Special Interest Group on Computers & Society. The conference focuses on the application of IT technologies to social good. The Special Track on AI for Tackling Dis/Misinformation during Pandemics focuses on new data technologies based on artificial intelligence, data governance, machine learning, natural language processing, and social network analysis to aid experts in analyzing large volumes of social media data in order to detect fake news, misinformation, and disinformation. A number of open challenges need more investigation from the research community, such as recent trends in composing information disorder by combining false and real content, the mechanisms that drive fake content diffusion during pandemics, how to differentiate fake content from personal viewpoints, why people tend to believe fake content and make decisions based on it during pandemics, and what are the different motivations behind the dissemination of fake content. Fact-checking and claim verification are two important strategies that are worth incorporating in the automated tackling and curtailment of fake content during and after pandemics. ************ Key Dates ************ Papers Submission Due: May 1, 2021 Authors Notifications: June 22, 2021 Final Manuscript Due: July 10, 2021 GoodIT 2021: September 09-11, 2021 ************ Important Links ************ Special Track Website: https://aitdmp.conceptechint.net Submission Link: https://goodit2021.hotcrp.com/ ************ Submission Guidelines ************ All submissions will be reviewed using a single-blind review process.

Elster, Professor of High Performance Computing, Norwegian University of Science and Technology This talk will be focused on how AI techniques can be used in the development of HPC environment and tools. As larger HPC systems become more and more heterogeneous by adding GPUs and other devices for performance and energy efficiency, they also become more complex to write and optimize the HPC applications for. For instance, both CPU and GOUs have several types of memories and caches that codes need to be optimized for. We show how AI techniques can help us pick among 10s of thousands of parameters one ends up needing to optimize for the best possible performance of some given complex applications. Ideas for future opportunities will also be discussed.

Culture is *a cumulative custom of beliefs, values, rituals, and sanctions* *practiced by a group of people, province or country*. It is a much sensitive dimension of internationalization of any business and making it perform in a culturally diverse environment. At present, culture introduces significant changes in the core assumptions of business practices and skill expectations. This paradigm-shift has forced business executives and managers to know how cultural differences affect inter-organizational as well as intra-organizational functioning. It has made gaining cross-cultural compatibility a serious concern for the business as well as the scholastic society around the world. This proposed book would facilitate the cross-culture business and management practices by developing practitioners and academicians with cross-cultural business and management competencies. The way to improve these skills is to fill the gaps between practical implication and theoretical consideration; focus should be on learning so that they will get more chances to enhance their knowledge, skills and attitudes relevant to achieve business objectives.

Best papers of the workshop, after further revisions and independent reviews, will be considered for publication in a special issue of Wiley Journal of Software: Evolution and Process (IF 1.178). *** SCOPE *** The design of modern Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) comprises systems of systems that include several heterogeneous components. Manufacturers of such systems have to address several networking, dynamic and uncertain environmental constraints. CPSs are often safety-critical, i.e., any malfunctioning of the system may seriously harm its user. However, the involved communicating peripherals also necessitate the consideration of security issues, so that the proper functioning of a CPS is not affected by cyber-security threats. The engineering of a CPS requires high safety integrity levels and strong assurances for their fitness for public use against safety hazards and cyber-security threats. Considering safety and security requirements in the design of CPS increases their reliability, confidentiality, integrity, and availability. This also ensures the continuous provision and protection of essential services and assets. However, contemporary systems and software engineering methods and approaches are often not adequate for the high-confidence design and manufacturing of CPSs. This is especially true within the era of artificial intelligence. The overall aim of this workshop is to address a broad range of issues related to cyber-security, functional safety and their interplay within the context of CPSs – including but not limited to: - Functional safety, cyber-security and their interplay - Model-driven engineering - Privacy and confidentiality - Specification, verification and validation - System architecture, design, decisions and tradeoffs, e.g., correct-by-design or privacy-by-design - Security, safety and CPSs in the era of artificial intelligence, machine learning and deep learning - Regulation, homologation, legalization and certification - Case studies, experience reports, benchmarking and best practices - Healthcare, transportation, aerospace, energy, robotics, finance, business, etc. *** SUBMISSION GUIDELINES *** In order to encourage participation and discussion, this workshop solicits two types of submissions - regular papers and short papers: - Regular paper submissions about original work not exceeding 10 pages. - Short paper submissions on recent or ongoing work on relevant topics and ideas not exceeding 5 pages.
