Forwarded message from [simeon(a)ARCH.USYD.EDU.AU (Simeon Simoff)] sent originally on Fri, 17 Dec 1999 13:50:46 +1100: : Dear ISWorld Subscribers, : : Below is the call for papers for the International Conference on CULTURAL : ATTITUDES TOWARDS TECHNOLOGY AND COMMUNICATION (CATaC'00). I'm sending this : information on the behalf of Fay Sudweeks, who is currently out of Perth. : Please, send any specific requests related to the conference to : catac(a)it.murdoch.edu.au : : Happy Holidays : : Simeon J. Simoff : University of Sydney : : ---------------------------------------- 8< ------------------------------ : CALL FOR PAPERS : International Conference on : CULTURAL ATTITUDES TOWARDS TECHNOLOGY : AND COMMUNICATION (CATaC'00) : : Conference Theme: : Cultural Collisions and Creative Interferences in the Global Village : : 12-15 July 2000, Perth, Australia : http://www.it.murdoch.edu.au/~sudweeks/catac00/ : http://www.drury.edu/faculty/ess/catac00 : : Computer-mediated communication networks, such as the Internet and the : World Wide Web, promise to realise the utopian vision of an electronic : global village. But efforts to diffuse CMC technologies globally, especially : in Asia and among indigenous peoples in Africa, Australia and the United : States, have demonstrated that CMC technologies are neither culturally : neutral nor communicatively transparent. Rather, diverse cultural attitudes : towards technology and communication - those embedded in current CMC : technologies, and those shaping the beliefs and behaviours of potential : users - often collide. : : This biennial conference series aims to provide an international forum for : the presentation and discussion of cutting-edge research on how diverse : cultural attitudes shape the implementation and use of information and : communication technologies. The first conference in the series was held in : London in 1998. For an overview of the themes and presentations of : CATaC'98 and links to the papers, see : http://www.it.murdoch.edu.au/~sudweeks/catac98/01_ess.html. : : Original full papers (especially those which connect theoretical frameworks : with specific examples of cultural values, practices, etc.) and short papers : (e.g. describing current research projects and preliminary results) are : invited. Papers should articulate the connections between specific cultural : values as well as current and/or possible future communicative practices : involving information and communication technologies. We seek papers which, : taken together, will help readers, researchers, and practitioners of : computer-mediated communication - especially in the service of "electronic : democracy" - better understand the role of diverse cultural attitudes as : hindering and/or furthering the implementation of global computer : communications systems. : : Topics of particular interested include but are not limited to: : : - Communicative attitudes and practices in diverse industrialised countries. : - Communicative attitudes and practices in industrialising countries and : marginalised communities. : - Impact of new communication technologies on local and indigenous languages : and cultures. : - Politics of the electronic global village in democratising or preserving : hierarchy. : - East/West cultural attitudes and communicative practices. : - Role of gender in cultural expectations regarding appropriate : communicative behaviours. : - Ethical issues related to new technologies, and their impact on culture : and communication behaviours. : - Legal implications of communication and technology. : : SUBMISSION : : All submissions will be peer reviewed by an international panel of scholars : and researchers. There will be the opportunity for selected papers to appear : in special issues of journals and a book. CATaC'98 papers, for example, : appeared in the Electronic Journal of Communication/La Revue Electronique de : Communication (Vol.8, Nos.3-4, 1998) and will appear in the AI and Society : Journal and Javnost (Journal of the European Institute for Communication and : Culture. : : Initial submissions are to be emailed to catac(a)it.murdoch.edu.au as an : attachment (Word, HTML, PDF). Submission of a paper implies that it has not : been submitted or published elsewhere. At least one author of each accepted : paper is expected to present the paper at the conference. : : Important Dates: : * Full papers 14 February 2000 : * Short papers 28 February 2000 : * Notification of acceptance 27 March 2000 : * Final formatted papers 17 April 2000 : : PROGRAM : : Highlights of the conference program include: : - discussion forums following technical sessions to focus on research : objectives : and progress : - public lecture : - public panels with panelists drawn from conference participants : - reception in an art gallery featuring a didgeridoo player : - conference dinner at a winery : - pre-conference tour and post-conference safari : For more information, see the conference web site. : : SUBSIDIES : : Funding is being sought by the Committee to partially subsidise travel : expenses for students and scholars from developing countries. Please contact : the Co-Chairs if you wish to apply for a subsidy in the event that funds are : available. : : VENUE : : The venue is the Tradewinds Hotel, Fremantle, Western : Australia, located on the Swan River. Fremantle, an atmospheric port of : convict-constructed buildings and great pubs, is approximately 20km : west of Perth. Perth was founded in 1829 and is the sunniest capital in : Australia, and is the most isolated capital in the world. It has a : Mediterranean : climate, with warm to hot summers and cool winters.

Middleware like : JINI and CORBA can offer portability and interoperability through : their platform independent programming models. However, the rapid : deployment of applications of this technology has created a demand : for dynamically configurable middleware to accommodate rapidly : changing execution requirements. The reflective middleware platforms : that are emerging offer a general solution to agile reconfiguration : through the concepts of open implementation and reflection. : : The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers working : on reflective middleware platforms (and related technologies), : to identify key developments in such areas, and to discuss the : future of this potentially important technology. The workshop will : be limited in size to a maximum of 50 participants to enhance : discussion, with participants invited on the basis of position : papers. Such position papers should be no longer than two pages : in length and should address topics such as: : : * The design and implementation of reflective middleware platforms; : * Experiences with such reflective technologies in suitable : application domains, e.g. mobile computing; : * Fundamental developments in the theory and practice of reflection, : related to this area; : * Experience with existing mechanisms such as CORBA interceptors or : the Meta-Object Facility; : * Consideration of alternative techniques for dynamic configuration : and/or re-configuration; : * Examination of potentially complementary techniques such as : aspect-oriented programming; : * Techniques to improve performance and/ or scalability of reflective : techniques; : * Approaches to maintain the integrity of reflective technologies; : * Tool support for reflective middleware. : : The workshop will last for 1 day, starting after lunch on the 7th : April (immediately following the end of Middleware'2000, and : ending at lunchtime on the following day. : : Submission Procedure: : ==================== : Submissions should be made electronically, following the procedure : described at: : : http://www.comp.lancs.ac.uk/computing/RM2000/ : : by the date given above.

Forwarded message from [pobeirne(a)SYSMOD.IE (Patrick O'Beirne)] sent originally on Wed, 15 Dec 1999 09:55:01 +0000: : If anyone has something substantial to say on ECBP, here is a publishing : opportunity forwarded from the Cutter IT Journal : : ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- : --------------- : : Subject: April Cutter IT Journal on e-business best practices : : The April *Cutter IT Journal* will focus on best practices for e-business : projects. Ed Yourdon's call for papers is below. I look forward to hearing : from those of you who would like to contribute. If you have a colleague who : may be interested in submitting a paper, please forward this call for : papers. The deadline for submission of papers is January 25. : : As many of you already know, authoring an article in the Journal is an : excellent way to get your name out to IT professionals worldwide. The : Journal (formerly American Programmer) is in its eleventh year, and remains : one of the only completely objective sources of IT management information : available; it remains unjuried and without advertising. : : We are pleased to offer Journal authors a year's complimentary subscription : and 20 copies of the issue in which they are published. In addition, we : occasionally pull excerpts, along with the author's bio, to include in our : weekly Cutter Edge e-mail bulletin, which reaches another 5,000 readers. : We'd also be pleased to quote you, or passages from your article, in Cutter : press releases. If you plan to be speaking at industry conferences, we can : arrange to make additional copies of the issue in which you're published : available for attendees of those speaking engagements--furthering your own : promotional efforts. : : If you are interested in contributing an article, please contact me at the : number below, or send e-mail to jrose(a)cutter.com. Please feel free to : contact me if you have any questions, would like to write an article on a : topic that is related to, but not included in, the attached message, or can : suggest someone else who might like to contribute. : : Sincerely, : Jill Rose : Managing Editor, IT Group : Cutter Information Corp. : (781) 641-5133 : : Cutter IT Journal Editorial Calendar : April: Best Practices for E-Business : May: Requirements Management : June: Mini-operating Systems : July: Y2000: Lessons Learned : : ---------------------Reply Separator---------------------------- : Around the world, companies are embarking upon e-business projects with : an intensity and sense of urgency far beyond what we normally see in IT : developmpent efforts. There is a sense that e-business projects are : "different" from traditional projects, for several reasons: they often : require business reengineering activities, they need to be finished very : quickly, they involve a number of new technologies, etc. : : But there have been enough e-business projects conducted during the past : couple of years that a body of "best practices" is beginning to emerge. : We've decided to devote the April 2000 issue of Cutter IT Journal to : this topic, and we'll be addressing questions like these: : : * What is the best source of information for e-business best practices? : Are there books, conferences, journals, web sites, listservs, or other : sources of information that IT professionals should be consulting in : order to stay abreast of this area? : : * While there may be dozens, or even hundreds, of such best practices, : what are the PRINCIPAL best practices that a project manager should keep : in mind for an e-business project? Are there two or three, or perhaps : 5-10, such "momst important" best practices? : : * How long does it take for such practices to emerge in a typical IT : organization? What's the best way to disseminate these practices : throughout the organization, given the usual frantic pace of development : once such a project begins? : : * While there are several best practices for the IT professionals to : follow, e-business projects probably require some best practices in : other parts of the organization too, ranging from senior management to : end-users. What are those practices, and how difficult is it to : implement them? : : * If there are best practices for e-business projects, there must also : be WORST practices -- i.e., things to avoid at all cost, in order to : minimize the possibility of project failures. What are the key : worst-practices that can be passed on to future e-business project : managers? : : The deadline for submission of articles is Jan 25, 2000. However, since : we only have room for a limited number of articles, it's important that : you contact me as soon as possible with a description of the paper you : have in mind. Most CUTTER IT JOURNAL articles are approx 2,000 - 3,000 : words long, plus whatever graphics are appropriate. If you have any : other questions, please don't hesitate to contact me at ed(a)yourdon.com , : or look at the CUTTER IT JOURNAL section of my web site at : http://www.yourdon.com . : : ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- : --------------- : : ------------------------------------------------------------- : Patrick O'Beirne B.Sc.

Forwarded message from [A.Zaslavsky(a)monash.edu.au] sent originally on Wed, 15 Dec 1999 11:42:25 +1100: : CALL FOR PAPERS : : 3rd International Workshop : "MOBILITY IN DATABASES AND DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS" : : in conjunction with the 11th International Conference : on Database and Expert Systems Applications (DEXA'2000) : : http://www.dexa.org/ : : September 6 - 8, 2000 : Greenwich, UK : : Please bookmark MDDS'2000 home page : http://www.ct.monash.edu.au/DPMC/mdds/mdds2000/ : and visit frequently for news. : : Workshop proceedings to be published by IEEE Computer Society Press. : : AIMS & SCOPE : ------------ : : Together with wireless communication technologies portable computers : and personal digital assistants (PDA) provide a pervasive base for : mobile computing. As the mobile computing technology matures, : millions of people will become mobile users communicating with one : another and accessing various information resources. In business : environments, the ability to access critical data regardless of : location and time is even more crucial because corporate data must : be available to applications running on mobile workstations. : : On the other end of the spectrum, database and distributed systems : are instrumental in managing distributed information resources in : fixed and wireless network environments. Interoperability and : standardization have become the major features. However, existing : DBMS and distributed systems lack the mechanisms for dynamically : changing the environment where applications execute and the way they : communicate over a heterogeneous network. Mobile computing : therefore involves mobility of users, hardware, software and data. : : The focus of this workshop is on mobility issues in distributed : systems and databases. The objective of this workshop is to bring : together researchers and practitioners with mobile networking : background, database research interests, advanced applications and : distributed computing systems research and development skills to : discuss all aspects of emerging mobile computing paradigm. Both the : theoretical papers and papers reporting implementation and practical : results are solicited. The topics of interest include, but are not : limited to: : : * Data models for mobile information systems : * Impact of mobility in distributed applications : * Theoretical frameworks for mobility : * Software architectures for mobile distributed computing systems : * Wireless communications support for mobile applications : * Infrastructure for mobile computing research : * Object oriented technologies for mobile computing : * Mobile database management and mobility-aware data servers : * Operating system support for mobile computing : * Mobile transaction and workflow management & models : * Management of network & mobile computers heterogeneity : * Data & process migration, replication and recovery : * Mobile agents and code : * Distributed mobile objects : * Wireless multimedia systems : * Mobile access to Internet services : * User interface management for mobile information systems : * Resource allocation and management in mobile computing environment : : IMPORTANT DATES : --------------- : : Submission deadline: 11 February 2000 : Notification of acceptance: 24 March 2000 : Camera-ready copies: 1 May 2000 : Workshop: 6-8 September 2000 : : SUBMISSION DETAILS : ------------------ : : Authors are invited to submit research contributions representing : original, previously unpublished work.
