-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [WI] CfP 1st Workshop on Trust and Privacy in Process Analytics Date: Fri, 14 Feb 2020 17:31:39 +0100 From: Agnes Koschmider <ak(a)informatik.uni-kiel.de> Reply-To: Agnes Koschmider <ak(a)informatik.uni-kiel.de> To: WI(a)lists.kit.edu ------------------------------------- 1st Workshop on Trust and Privacy in Process Analytics (TPPA) organized at the International Conference on Process Mining (ICPM) 5 October 2020, Padua https://tppa-workshop.github.io/2020/ ------------------------------------- Workshop description: Process mining has been successfully applied in analyzing and improving processes based on event logs in all kinds of environments. However, the impact of trust and privacy on the technical design as well as the organizational application of process mining has been largely neglected. Both topics are closely related to the responsible application of data science, a topic that has gotten more attention in recent years as data-driven methods start to permeate our society. Privacy relates to the concern that event logs may contain personal data of both customers and employees and the challenge of protecting the information about individuals while still being useful for process mining (e.g., differential privacy, k-anonymity, homomorphic encryption, secure multi-party computing). Often, security aspects (e.g., encryption) are closely connected when processing personal data cannot be avoided. On the other hand, the workshop is about the concept of trust, which is required both from the perspective of trust in organisational and technological measures that event logs are not misused (e.g., for worker surveillance) as well as from the perspective of trust that the results of a process mining analysis faithfully reflect reality (e.g., data quality, traceability, auditibility). The main objective of the TPPA workshop is to give a forum for the trust and privacy aspects and responsible application of process mining. Privacy and trust are important perspectives on process mining as it gets more widely used in organizations worldwide. We invite researchers and industry to share their research, ideas, experiences, and concerns in this area. The topics of interest for tis workshop, but not limited to, are provided below. ---------------------- Workshop topics: - Privacy-preserving methods for Process Analytics (Process Mining, Data Mining, Machine Learning) - Privacy-preserving Methods for Business Process Management - Privacy and Trust for Blockchains in Business Process Management - Privacy Engineering for Event Logs - Trust in Process Analytics - Privacy and Trust in Organizational Data Collection - Analysis of GDPR Compliance with Process Analytics - Methods and Techniques for Privacy and Trust Management in Process Mining - Responsible Process Analytics - Explainable Process Analytics - Data Quality, and Traceability in Process Analytics ---------------------- Important dates: Submission of Workshop-Paper Abstracts: 18 August 2020 Submission of Workshop Papers: 25 August 2020 Workshop Day: 5 October 2020 ---------------------- Organizing Committee: Felix Mannhardt, SINTEF/ Norwegian University of Science and Technology Agnes Koschmider, Kiel University Nathalie Baracaldo, IBM Almaden Research Center -------------------------------------------- Prof. Dr. Agnes Koschmider Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel AG Wirtschaftsinformatik (Process Analytics) Hermann-Rodewald-Str. 3 24118 Kiel Telefon: +49 431 880-6387

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Call for Book Chapters on Intelligent Technologies for Internet of Vehicles Date: Fri, 14 Feb 2020 10:57:46 +0000 From: Naercio Magaia <ndmagaia(a)fc.ul.pt> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Call for Book Chapters for the Springer-Verlag Handbook: "Intelligent Technologies for Internet of Vehicles" Series on Internet of Things - Technologies, Communications and Computing (covered by Scopus) Editors: * Naercio Magaia, University of Lisbon, Portugal * George Mastorakis, Hellenic Mediterranean University, Greece * Constandinos X. Mavromoustakis, University of Nicosia, Cyprus * Evangelos Pallis, Hellenic Mediterranean University, Greece * Evangelos K. Markakis, Hellenic Mediterranean University, Greece Internet-of-things (IoT) has appeared as a novel and ground-breaking technology aiming to provide Internet connectivity to every device that have computation, communication and storage capability. Numerous applications such as smart health, smart cities, smart industries, and smart homes are a result of this phenomenon of connecting smart devices with the Internet. In order to provide secure and safe transportation, IoT has evolved into a novel concept, also known as the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) where smart vehicles equipped with computing, communicating and storing capabilities communicate with each other and with surrounding infrastructure via vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications. The latter enabled the exchange of critical information among smart vehicles including sudden lane changes, steep-curves, black ice warnings, and traffic accidents avoidance, therefore assisting the drivers in extreme and difficult situations. IoV has an enormous potential to provide secure and sa fer transportation as it enables the vehicles to take correct decision in a timely manner. In addition, IoV will also have intelligence and learning capabilities to anticipate the vehicular users' intentions. Cloud-based IoV mechanisms provide several essential services from routing to content search, spectrum sharing, dissemination, attack protection, etc. However, IoV-based objects produce a vast volume of information frequently called as Big Data, which cannot be easily processed by traditional algorithms and schemes. Future smart environments will enable efficient handling and processing of Big Data that is generated by the associated objects for an effective communication and co-operation among them. In addition, Artificial Intelligence (AI) will play a crucial role in such environments, enabling for smarter services, applications, business processes and social interaction among the IoV objects. In this respect, a great potential exists for advanced technological solutions combined with AI and IoV-enabled capabilities. AI mechanisms applied in IoV environments can be exploited in smart cities to analyze drivers' actions via data gathered and/or exchanged by enabled V2X vehicles' Electronic Control Unit (ECU) and microcontrollers. AI will play a significant role in future IoV applications and infrastructures, by providing insights from collected data. This capability will enable the identification of patterns and will allow operational predictions with higher accuracy in small time periods. AI applications for smart vehicles will also enable businesses to develop new products, reduce possible risks and increase efficiency during the production time, by predicting failures that are usually non-detectable by humans. The future of the implementation of AI-powered IoV infrastructures depends on the effective solutions to a number of technical challenges that such paradigms introduce. These challenges include intelligent sensor capabilities improvement and integration, smart Big Data analytics, automated remote data management, as well as open and secure composition of processes, which may be implemented into emerging AI-enabled IoV scenarios. Some initiatives try to incorporate Artificial Intelligence schemes in IoV environments, but new frameworks have to be defined. In fact, the approach of IoV is to find the potential benefits of AI, in order to build extensive ecosystems, for increasing the number of automated services and their value. This Book aims to gather recent research works in emerging Artificial Intelligence methods for processing and storing the data generated from cloud-based Internet of Vehicles infrastructures. In this context, the major subjects of the proposed book will cover th e analysis and the development of AI-powered mechanisms in future IoV applications and architectures. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Emerging trends of AI and IoV * Architectures and systems for AI and IoV convergence * IoV with Machine Learning technologies * IoV with deep learning schemes * AI-enabled IoV applications and systems * Performance evaluation of Deep Learning and IoV-related mechanisms * Social computing and Intelligent IoV * Blockchain-oriented IoV schemes and related topics * Artificial immune systems and IoV * Algorithm optimization for intelligent IoV applications * Intelligent Big Data analytics * AI-enabled computing * Deep-learning network approaches for IoV applications and services. * Applications of AI for 5G-based IoV resource management * Intelligent edge/fog-based computing and analysis * Self-Organizing intelligent systems * Smart cities and AI applications * AI in all sort of vehicular communications * Security, privacy and trust by design and performance evaluation * Multimedia QoS, and traffic management in IoV * Intelligent network estimation techniques * AI-based schemes for IoV emergency communication networks * Applications of AI for 5G+ vehicular technologies We strongly welcome other topic suggestions, dealing with AI and IoV and any converged approach.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] [Call for Papers] Trustworthiness: Is IT the problem or the solution? Date: Fri, 14 Feb 2020 07:01:27 -0800 (PST) From: Cutter Consortium <cgenerali(a)cutter.com> Reply-To: Cutter Consortium <cgenerali(a)cutter.com> To: AIS World <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Call for Papers!

How can our trust be restored? Share your insight for publication in Cutter Business Technology Journal https://www.cutter.com/call-papers . Our ability to rely on information as being truthful – and on its sources as being honest and correct – has been called into question, once again, by a combination of social and technology developments. It is easy to say "people are entitled to their own opinions, but not to their own facts" – but what exactly are the facts in the age of Photoshop and unexplainable neural networks? The word "trustworthiness" is now appearing with greater frequency in the IT and business world, as well as in society at large. Some of the reasons are: The ability to create "deep fakes" used to propagate false accusations or conspiracy theories The meddling in our often antiquated voting systems The fragmentation of mass media into a large number of communication channels that don't even pretend to be objective sources of news The "echo chamber" effect of social media platforms The bias that may be introduced in decision algorithms by training datasets that do not equitably represent all demographic segments The ability to spoof the origin of an e-mail or a phone call The propagation of security weaknesses as developers include in their software some open-source components of obscure origin that have not been fully analyzed for vulnerabilities. As these examples show, information technology itself is often, if not the actual culprit, then at least a facilitator. For example, deep fakes are directly enabled by sophisticated image manipulation algorithms; neural networks reach decisions that can be almost impossible to explain or verify; and robotic process automation is at the heart of robocalls, spamming and e-mail phishing. But can we imagine that IT "atones for its sins," so to speak, by providing the solutions to those same issues? There are certainly some glimpses of hope in that direction. For example, members of the Object Management Group are currently working on developing standards and there are a growing number of organizations and countries where committees have been formed to study AI ethics, elaborate guidelines and recommend best practices. In this issue of Cutter Business Technology Journal with Guest Editor Claude Baudoin http://www.cutter.com/experts/claude-baudoin we are soliciting – from end users, IT suppliers, academia and government actors – articles that address these challenges and describe potential solutions. We're also encouraging authors to focus on the positive: what innovations or greater adoption of existing technologies can help restore the trust in information and the decisions made from it? And what is needed – in the technical, socially, and legislative or regulatory areas – to make these solutions work? Article ideas may include (but are not limited to) the following: How can I trust that software does not contain security vulnerabilities or malware – especially software that controls medical equipment, power supplies, defense systems, airplanes, cars, and other critical assets? How can we trace the origin of information (including text, images and videos) to their source, while at the same time enabling whistleblowers and dissidents in authoritarian countries to report information without fear of retribution? What are the newest development in voting systems to ensure free and fair elections? How is it possible to balance the demand for "explainability" of a deep learning algorithm with the intellectual property rights of its inventors? What are the respective responsibilities of the various actors (users and suppliers of information and systems, regulators and legislators, etc.)? How much assurance is enough? Abstract submissions due February 28, 2020. Please send article ideas (short paragraph outlining major discussion points) to Claude Baudoin and Christine Generali (cbaudoin(a)gmail.com and cgenerali(a)cutter.com).

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Electronic Markets - Call for a Special Issue: The Cultural Impact in Platform Competition, Oct 31, 2020 Date: Thu, 13 Feb 2020 14:00:55 -0600 From: Yun Wan <yunwan(a)gmail.com> Reply-To: yunwan(a)gmail.com To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org Call for a Special Issue The Cultural Impact in Platform Competition Deadline: October 31, 2020 Guest Editors Makoto Nakayama, DePaul University, United States, mnakayama(at) cdm.depaul.edu Simon Poon, University of Sydney, simon.poon(at)sydney.edu.au Lee Chei Sian, Nanyang Technological University, LeeCS(at)ntu.edu.sg Panagiotis Stamolampros, University of Leeds, P.Stamolampros(at)leeds.ac.uk Yun Wan, University of Houston Victoria, United States, wany(at)uhv.edu Theme User-generated content (UGC) has been widely utilized in the cross-cultural context with the globalization of online platform portals. For this special issue, we define UGC as what consumers post online including consumer product reviews at sites like Amazon and Yelp, posts on social media such as Facebook and Twitter, blogs, pictures, and images found in the online environment. The diversity of global consumers’ cultural backgrounds both enriches the utility of UGC on multi-national social media platforms and increases the complexity of platform competition strategy (Alt & Zimmermann, 2019). While some studies reported cross-cultural created differences in ethnic restaurant reviews (Chik et al., 2016; Nakayama & Wan, 2019b), we are still in the early stage of understanding how cross-cultural influences are transpiring on the broader spectrum of UGC, such as how to channel their influence as a differential factor into service or product recommendation and customization in platform competition. Thus, empirical investigations are needed to explore innovative methods and frameworks on the cultural data analytics of UGC as well as on the integration of cultural factors into platform competition strategies. In this special issue, we encourage submissions that apply a cross-disciplinary perspective beyond the extant national culture frameworks, such as Hofstede (Hofstede, 1980; Minkov & Hofstede, 2012) and intercultural communication (Gudykunst, 2005). Central issue and Themes Today, global social media platforms such as Facebook and Yelp are accessible not only via PC and smartphone but also via automobiles and an increasing number of IoT devices. Such platforms constantly collect and analyze UGC, then interpret them into recommendation or customized products and services back into the platform. Though this process has been replicated across the globe in different languages by ecommerce portals, they are more or less applying the same algorithms and standard practices across platforms. However, consumers from different countries are not a monolithic group. Their cultural backgrounds heavily influence their preferences, usage, and evaluation of products and services. Globally standardized recommendation and customization algorithms without incorporating culture elements could contribute or directly lead to strategic failures, such as the exit of the Chinese market by Amazon (Liao, 2019). Meanwhile, recent studies found consumers with different cultural backgrounds place different emphases on food quality, waiter service, ambiance, and price fairness in their reviews (Nakayama & Wan, 2018, 2019a). In other words, comparable Yelp five-star sushi restaurants in Tokyo and New York could be different because Japanese and US reviewers have different emphasis on evaluation attributes. Failure to account for cross-cultural differences on the provided ratings may also distort the information content of UGC for firms and customers (Stamolampros et al., 2019). Today’s economy is driven strongly by optimizing the product mix to the target consumer profiles on a global scale. When cultural factors influence the consumer in the evaluation of products and services, we should expect such influence being properly utilized, presented, and informed to other consumers through recommendation systems, widgets on social media outlets, and review websites. With the big data analytical methods being systematically used in the cross-cultural perspective of UGC to help analyze such influence (Akter & Wamba, 2016), we expect future studies would not only identify cultural influence but also measure them quantitatively. We encourage submissions that apply a cross-disciplinary perspective on the cultural impact of UGC with topics such as: • Theoretical frameworks to analyze national culture influence on UGC • Cultural induced textual/sentimental characteristics of UGC • Sentiment analyses of UGC across national, regional or ethnic cultures • Cross-cultural analyses of UGC for subjective goods such as hospitality products and services • Diversity of UGC reactions and consumers’ cultural background • Review summarization strategy considering cultural variations of UGC • Adaption strategy of UGC across national, regional or ethnic cultures into platform competition • Biases in social media due to national, regional or ethnic cultures • Review of national, regional or ethnic cultural impact on UGC • Algorithm design in digital platforms considering cultural factors • Culture in designing recommendation and review systems • Management of platform content and functionalities in different cultures • Analyses of the competitive impact of cultural issues in digital platforms • Cross-cultural differences on the effect of UGC on corporate performance • Antecedents of the credibility of UGC in different cultures • Firm responses to negative UGC across national, regional or ethnic cultures Submission Electronic Markets is a Social Science Citation Index (SSCI)-listed journal (IF 3.553 in 2018) in the area of information systems. We encourage original contributions with a broad range of methodological approaches, including conceptual, qualitative and quantitative research. Please also consider position papers and case studies for this special issue. All papers should fit the journal scope (for more information, see www.electronicmarkets.org/about-em/scope/) and will undergo a double-blind peer-review process. Submissions must be made via the journal’s submission system and comply with the journal's formatting standards. The preferred average article length is approximately 8,000 words, excluding references. If you would like to discuss any aspect of this special issue, you may either contact the guest editors or the Editorial Office. References Akter, S., & Wamba, S. F. (2016).
