Submissions typically address current limitations of information security, directly challenge long-held beliefs or the very foundations of security, or discuss problems from an entirely novel angle, leading to new solutions. We welcome papers both from computer science and other disciplines that study adversarial relationships, as well as from practice. The workshop is invitation-only; all accepted papers receive a 1 hour plenary time slot for presentation and discussion. In order to maximize diversity of perspectives, we particularly encourage submissions from new NSPW authors, from Ph.D. students, and from non-obvious disciplines and institutions. In 2020, NSPW invites theme submissions relating to “Automated Reasoning for Security” in addition to regular submissions.

Call for Papers The 21st IEEE International Conference on Information Integration and Reuse (IRI'2020) Las Vegas, USA, Aug. 11-13, 2020 https://homepages.uc.edu/~niunn/IRI20/call_papers.html Confirmed Keynote Speakers (so far): Dr. Elisa Bertino (Purdue University) Journal Special Issues will be organized to include the top papers accepted into IRI’2020. This conference presents excellent, novel, and contemporary papers covering all aspects of Data – including Scientific Theory and Technology-Based Applications. New data analytic algorithms, technologies, and tools are sought for data management in the face of hardware, software, and/or bandwidth constraints; to construct models yielding important data insights; and, to create visualizations to aid in presenting and understanding the data. System development and integration need to adapt to these new algorithms, technologies, tools, and needs. This conference and its constituents support the development of science and technology to improve the human condition. Furthermore, IRI addresses the representation, cleansing, generalization, validation, and reasoning strategies for the scientifically sound and the cost-effective advancement of all systems and systems of systems (SoS) – including all software and hardware aspects. These non-trivial tasks lead to challenging research problems – for example, how to optimally select the information/data sets for reuse and how to optimize the integration of existing information/knowledge with new, developing information/knowledge sources! The IEEE IRI conference serves as a forum for researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and government to present, discuss, and exchange ideas that address real-world problems with real-world solutions. Theoretical and applied papers are both welcome. The conference program will include several plenary speeches from academia, industry, and government; special sessions, open forum workshops, and panels. The conference includes, but is certainly not limited to, the areas listed below: * Applications – Autonomous Vehicles, Business, Education, Engineering, Healthcare and Medical Informatics, the * Internet of Things, Math, Military, Multimedia, NLP, Robotics, Science, Security, Social Networking, Space, Vision, etc. * Brain-Computer Interface: Applications and Algorithms * Contemporary as well as Novel Data Mining Techniques * Data & Knowledge Representation and Management * Data Science & Technologies - Heuristic Acquisition * Data Science and Software Engineering – Identify Security Bugs, Code Reviews, Adaptive Systems, Testing, etc. * Data Visualization * Graph Models * Machine Learning & AI * Heuristics, and Explanation-Based Learning vs. neural networks which are intractable * AI and Security * Symbolic AI * Evolutionary Techniques * Predictive Data Analysis & Intelligence * Recommender Systems * Statistical Analysis * Information Science & Theory Best Paper Award: The best papers will be selected by distinct (cleared) committees and will be the ones, which report novel and promising research work, which have a high potential for world impact.

04 Mar '20

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [WI] CFP: 17th Conference on Principles of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KR 2020) Date: Wed, 04 Mar 2020 10:40:34 +0200 From: Theofanis I. Aravanis <taravanis(a)upatras.gr> Reply-To: Theofanis I. Aravanis <taravanis(a)upatras.gr> Organization: University of Patras To: taravanis(a)upatras.gr CALL FOR PAPERS 17th Conference on Principles of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KR2020) 12-18 September 2020, Rhodes, Greece https://kr2020.inf.unibz.it/ Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (KR) is a well-established and lively field of research. In KR a fundamental assumption is that an agent's knowledge is explicitly represented in a declarative form, suitable for processing by dedicated reasoning engines. This assumption, that much of what an agent deals with is knowledge-based, is common in many modern intelligent systems. Consequently, KR has contributed to the theory and practice of various areas in AI, including automated planning and natural language understanding, and to fields beyond AI, including databases, verification, software engineering, and robotics. In recent years, KR has contributed also to new and emerging fields, including the semantic web, computational biology, cyber security, and the development of software agents. The KR conference series is the leading forum for timely in-depth presentation of progress in the theory and principles underlying the representation and computational management of knowledge. SCOPE We solicit papers presenting novel results on the principles of KR that clearly contribute to the formal foundations of relevant problems or show the applicability of results to implemented or implementable systems. We also welcome papers from other areas that show clear use of, or contributions to, the principles or practice of KR. We also encourage "reports from the field" of applications, experiments, developments, and tests. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Applications of KR - Argumentation - Belief revision and update, belief merging, information fusion - Commonsense reasoning - Computational aspects of knowledge representation - Concept formation, similarity-based reasoning - Contextual reasoning - Decision making - Description logics - Explanation finding, diagnosis, causal reasoning, abduction - Geometric, spatial, and temporal reasoning - Inconsistency- and exception tolerant reasoning, paraconsistent logics - KR and autonomous agents and multi-agent systems - KR and cognitive robotics - KR and cyber security - KR and education - KR and game theory - KR and machine learning, inductive logic programming, knowledge acquisition - KR and natural language processing and understanding - KR and the Web, Semantic Web - Knowledge graphs, virtual knowledge graphs, and open linked data - Knowledge representation languages - Logic programming, answer set programming, constraint logic programming - Modeling and reasoning about preferences - Multi- and order-sorted representations and reasoning - Nonmonotonic logics, default logics, conditional logics - Ontology formalisms and models - Ontology-based data access, integration, and exchange - Philosophical foundations of KR - Qualitative reasoning, reasoning about physical systems - Reasoning about actions and change, action languages - Reasoning about knowledge, beliefs, and other mental attitudes - Uncertainty, vagueness, many-valued and fuzzy logics KR2020 will also feature Workshops and Tutorials, solicited by means of an open call, and a Doctoral Consortium.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] iCFP HICSS-54 Minitrack on Emerging Issues in Distributed Group Decision-Making Date: Tue, 3 Mar 2020 21:15:57 +0000 From: Anil Aggarwal <aaggarwal(a)ubalt.edu> To: ISWorld <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Dear Colleagues: After successful sessions last five years, we are continuing our mini track on Emerging Issues in Distributed Group Decision-Making: Opportunities and Challenges at the HICSS Conference. We invite you to submit your paper to our minitrack . A call for papers is attached. http://home.ubalt.edu/ntsbagga/hicss_54.htm Regards, Anil Aggarwal University of Baltimore USA Doug Vogel Harbin Institute of technology PRC Yuko SJ Murayama Tsuda College Japan ===================== CALL FOR PAPERS FOR the Mini-track Emerging Issues in e-collaboration Distributed Group Decision-Making: Opportunities and Challenges<http://home.ubalt.edu/ntsbagga/hicss_54.htm> (Part of the Collaboration Systems and Technology track ) HAWAII INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SYSTEM SCIENCES (HICSS-54) Grand Hyatt Kauai Given the current turbulent state of world economy, outsourcing is coming under tremendous pressure. Companies are no longer providing long-term contracts but are renewing them based on deliverables from outsourced companies. This is putting tremendous pressure on teams to deliver quality product on time. Team adaptability and team configuration are becoming crucial to meet deadlines. Teams must be able to adapt quickly to the changing environment. Agile teams adapt and deliver quickly and provide maximum customer satisfaction. By definition, however, agile teams must be co-located. Can distributed teams be agile and adaptable? This requires careful team configuration. Distributed teams face many challenges of time, location, infrastructure, language, customs, socialization and politics. This is further compounded in globally distributed teams by diversity, nationality and cultural issues. As old issue are resolved, new challenges emerge that require knowledge from multiple disciplines such as information systems, social sciences, international management, leadership and political science. It is almost impossible for one individual to have expertise in so many domains, which makes this a very challenging but ultimately rewarding collaborative area of research. Given the richness and research potential of this area, it is essential to brainstorm and bring diverse points of view to develop underlying theory and frameworks. The mini track will attempt to accomplish these objectives. The mini track will address emerging issue such as diversity, culture, adaptability and agility related to teams in distributed group decision making, as well as the underlying theories of group dynamics, coordination, communications and decision-making in distributed environments, in creation of competitive advantage. Examples of topics in the discussion of globally distributed decision making mini-track will include the following (but are not limited to): * eCollaboration in distributed teams * Fake news impact on ecollaboration * Swift team collaboration * Sub groups impact on eCollaboration * Big data collaboration * E-government(s) inter- , intra-collaboration * Collaboration through crowdsourcing * Disaster management in distributed teams * Delivering health services through collaboration * Economics of distributed decision making in the clouds * Trust and distrust as motivator in distributed decision making * Can agile teams be globally distributed? * Agile/Adaptable team configuration in globally distributed teams * The "e (internet)" to "m (mobile)" transformation of globally distributed teams * Communication and coordination in globally distributed teams * Diversity issues in globally distributed teams * Customer satisfaction, performance and "trust" building in globally distributed teams * Synchronous and asynchronous decision making in globally distributed teams * Comparison of issues across internal, inter-, intra and offshore distributed teams * Turbulent economy and its impact on outsourcing * Models of globally distributed agile/adaptable teams * Knowledge creation, transfer and integration across globally distributed teams * Leadership/cohesiveness issues in globally distributed teams * Issues related to functional and dysfunctional globally distributed teams * Security, privacy and risk associated with globally distributed teams * Case Studies (success/failures) related to decision making by globally distributed teams Contact Information for Mini-Track Chair: Dr. A.
