-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Second IEEE Digital Health as a Service Symposium - Beijing, China, July 8-9, 2020 Date: Sun, 29 Dec 2019 16:15:46 +0000 From: Hossain Shahriar <hshahria(a)kennesaw.edu> To: 'aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org' <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Second IEEE Digital Health as a Service Symposium In conjunction with 2020 IEEE World Congress on Services Beijing, China, July 8-9, 2020 Please join us in the second IEEE Digital Health as a Service Symposium (DHAASS) which will be organized within the 2020 IEEE World Congress on Services (IEEE SERVICES), The Congress will take place July 7-11, 2020, in Beijing, China (https://conferences.computer.org/services/2020/). DHAASS, which will be held July 8-9, 2020, aims to bring together leading researchers, community leaders and visionaries from academia and industry, end-users, and healthcare professionals, in the area of digital health to share their research, practical experience, and visions of the future of sustainable health and social care transformations. About DHAASS Looking at the health and integrated care system through services’ spectacles reveal significant opportunities for engaging digital health to affect an ecosystem shift in which a new health delivery model is unleashed. Engaging multiple and new roles, including communities and individual patients in their own integrated healthcare services delivery is one of the promising opportunities which can be made possible by the microservices structuring of the health and care system . Broadly speaking, related discovery, composition and provision of healthcare services will need to be based on cutting-edge computer technologies and digital media/data so that quality factors including timing, granularity, scale, cost-effectiveness, safety, security, privacy, and precision are integral parts of the healthcare value chain ecosystem. Digital Health services can include, among many other innovative methods, preventive and predictive capabilities of machine learning based data analytics, actionable recommendations based on in-situ monitoring and assessment of an individual’s real-time physical and cognitive performance, trade-off analysis between cloud-based versus edge-based sensory data streaming and data analytics. Scope DHAASS will embrace a broad spectrum of issues and concerns, including, but not limited to, the following topics related to digital health as services: • Microservices models and architectures of health and integrated care services • Disease/condition-specific provider microservice design (e.g., diabetes, obesity, COPD, dementia, post cancer treatment, allergies, Ear, Nose and Throat Conditions (ENT)) • Patient/user-side microservices design (user needs, social isolation, assistive living for older adults and individuals with special needs, emergencies) • Standardizing provider-side and user-side microservices. FHIR resources, profiles and extension for digital health as a service • Microservices-based delivery pathways co-design and provider acceptability • Informatic, cybernetic and mediatic digital health platforms supportive of implementing microservices architecture • Community crowd-sourcing for delivery of health and care microservices • Microservices crowd-sourcing platforms • Worker training and selection, reputation management, and micropayments • Mediation technology for peer group support (peer-sourcing) • Qualifying and activating user-side microservice requests: eligibility, fairness, properness, among other qualifications including irrational service user models (e.g., a dementia patient requesting the microservice repeatedly and forgetfully) • mHealth services and applications which include the use of mobile devices o in collecting community and clinical health data, delivery of healthcare information to practitioners, researchers and patients, • for real-time monitoring of patient vital signs and the direct provision of care (via mobile telemedicine) • for training and collaboration of health workers. • Health economics of microservices-oriented care delivery systems o Scalability issues for adopting digital health as services • Empirical study on savings in unit and total cost realized by patient and community engagement Submissions Submitted papers must be solely the work of the author(s), must not have been previously published elsewhere, and must not be under consideration for publication elsewhere.

Fwd: [AISWorld] CFP: The Present and Future of HRM, Employment Relations and Work: Sustainability and Inclusion in an age of Artificial Intelligence, Digitization and the Gig Economy
by Gustaf Neumann 01 Jan '20

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP: The Present and Future of HRM, Employment Relations and Work: Sustainability and Inclusion in an age of Artificial Intelligence, Digitization and the Gig Economy Date: Sat, 28 Dec 2019 03:42:18 +0000 From: Fu, Xinyu <xinyu.fu(a)pitt.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Hi there, Happy holidays! Could you help forward below message to the IS members? Thanks! Xinyu -------------------- BAM Human Resource Management SIG International Symposium WEBSITE LINK: https://www.bam.ac.uk/civicrm/event/info?reset=1&id=3661 Description The Fourth Industrial Revolution (Schwab, 2017) has given rise to many polarized debates about the world of work and how employing organisations manage people. On the one hand, the emergence of artificial intelligence and digitization creates opportunities for new occupations, efficiencies in the production and supply chain, as well as reduction of human error (Colbert, Yee, & George, 2016; Wang & Siau, 2019). On the other hand, a large number of jobs are at risk of obsolescence, the skills gap accentuates, and adverse working conditions within the gig economy intensify (OECD, 2019; Wood, Graham, Lehdonvirta, & Hjorth, 2019). The role of data analytics also has strong implications for productivity and experience of work for workers through performance instantaneous monitoring and management interventions. At the same time, global and multi-layered developments increase the need for more sustainable, aligned and contemporary human resources management (HRM) and employment relations (ER) practices. For example, the changing demographics in the workforce caused by ageing workforces and conflict- or disaster-induced mass human displacements resulting in the need for labour market integration of immigrants and refugees, present employing organizations with both opportunities and challenges of how to effectively access novel and rare talent (UNHCR, 2019). In addition, climate change and global warming have given rise to governmental and corporate green policies with clear implications for designing, implementing and championing green HRM practices (Leidner, Baden, Ashleigh, 2019). Also, the changing nature of work, in part driven by digital innovations, has increasingly resulted in the growth of non-standard forms of employment (40% of the total economy in OECD countries) and subsequently, the need to extend social protection and the opportunity for collective bargaining to an increasing segment of workers (OECD, 2019). This symposium offers an opportunity for dialogue among academics, practitioners and policy makers to engage with current and future challenges and identify potential HRM and ER strategies to address such challenges. We welcome both empirical and conceptual papers that may examine relevant topics at micro-, meso- or macro-level. All methodologies are welcome. Topics likely to be examined include (the list is not exhaustive): - Artificial intelligence, machine learning, and job automation - Ethical use of artificial intelligence and data analytics in workplaces - Changing workplace demographics, inclusion and diversity in the global economy - Training and development of a workforce for the future of work - Responsible HRM practices in the context of climate and demographic change - Designing, implementing and promoting HRM practices for the the digital age - Opportunities and challenges for talent management in the changing world of work - The gig economy and its implications for HRM in a global context - The role of HRM in sustainable and responsible employing organisations - HRM and employment practices across different organization forms and systems - Big data: opportunities and challenges for workforces - Roles of institutional actors in regulating digital platform work - Workers’ voice in the digital age Keynote speakers will include: - Thomas A. Kochan, George M.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] AMCIS CALL FOR PAPERS MINITRACK: Information Security Risks to Research Date: Thu, 26 Dec 2019 14:30:07 -0500 From: James Smith <jnsmith(a)bluereefgroup.com> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org CFP Mini-Track: Information Security Risks to Research AMCIS 2020 Salt Lake City, Utah, August 12-16 2020 https://amcis2020.aisconferences.org We kindly invite you to submit your manuscript to the AMCIS 2020 mini-track Information Security Risks to Research. The mini-track is under the Information Security and Privacy (SIGSEC) track. Mini-track Description Academic researchers around the world are increasingly becoming targets for information security threat actors, including state-sponsored espionage targeting research programs. These threats have been demonstrated to be highly persistent and targeted. Enterprise IT and information security at many universities are focused on protecting core functions of the university and may not be focused on tailored protection for specific research groups. This mini-track invites the authors to submit papers that address relevant issues and concerns related to the intersection of academic research and information security threats. Topic areas may focus on, but are not limited to: • What are the most serious cybersecurity issues currently encountered by universities and what can be done about these issues? What are the best practices to recognize, protect, detect and respond to threats to academic research? • The dimensions of research that expose researchers to increased information security threats, e.g. intellectual property development, research topicality, national origin, funding source, and collaboration networks. • The nature of the threat actors targeting academic researchers; e.g. nation state advanced persistent threat (APT) actors, criminal actors, economically driven corporate espionage and political threat actors. • Fit and misfit between the threat posed to researchers and the protection provided by enterprise IT and information security at universities, including: Usable security in academia Access control and authorization Cyber security awareness training Organizational and institutional network structures • Balancing an open culture of academic research vs. protecting valuable intellectual property. *********************************************** Important Dates: *********************************************** January 6, 2020 - Manuscript submission for AMCIS 2020 begins February 28, 2020 - AMCIS manuscript submissions (completed research and Emergent Research Forum (ERF)) closes for authors at 5:00pm MST March 5, 2020 - All papers have assigned reviewers March 26, 2020 - Reviews are due April 7, 2020 - Mini-track decisions due to track chairs April 13, 2020 - Track Chair recommendations due April 22, 2020: Camera-ready papers are due at 5:00 pm MST Mini-track Chairs: James N.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [ACSOS] Autonomic Computing & Self-Organizing Systems: ACSOS 2020 CFP Date: Mon, 23 Dec 2019 14:46:43 +0000 From: ACSOS 2020 <publicity(a)acsos.org> To: acsos(a)lists.uni-wuerzburg.de *** ACSOS 2020 - Call For Papers *** 1st Joint ICAC/SASO International Conference on Autonomic Computing and Self-Organizing Systems 17-21 August 2020 – Washington, DC, USA https://2020.acsos.org/https://twitter.com/ACSOSconf ************************************* The goal of the IEEE International Conference on Autonomic Computing and Self-Organizing Systems (ACSOS) is to provide a forum for sharing the latest research results, ideas and experiences in autonomic computing, self-adaptation and self-organization. ACSOS was founded in 2020 as a merger of the IEEE International Conference on Autonomic Computing (ICAC) and the IEEE International Conference on Self-Adaptive and Self-Organizing Systems (SASO). For more information about the merger, as well as up-to-date news, see https://conf.researchr.org/news/acsos-2020 or follow us at https://twitter.com/ACSOSconf! *** Important Dates *** April 1, 2020: Abstract submission deadline April 8, 2020: Paper submission deadline June 8, 2020: Notification to authors July 8, 2020: Camera Ready Deadline August 17-21, 2020: ACSOS Conference! *** Challenge and Scope *** The complexity of current and emerging networks, software, and services can be characterized by issues such as scale, heterogeneity, openness, and dynamics, both internally and in the environment. These issues have led the software engineering, distributed systems, and systems management communities to look for inspiration in diverse fields (e.g., complex systems, control theory, machine learning, chemistry, psychology, sociology, and biology) to find new ways of designing and managing such computing systems in a principled way. Yet challenges remain to build autonomic systems that exhibit the desirable self-* properties (i.e., self-organizing, self-adaptive, self-healing, self-aware, etc). The mission of ACSOS is to provide an interdisciplinary forum for researchers and industry practitioners to address these challenges to make resources, applications, and systems more autonomic, self-adaptive, and self-organising. ACSOS provides a venue to share and present their experiences, discuss challenges, and report state-of-the-art and in-progress research. The conference program will include technical research papers, in-practice experience reports, posters, demos, and a doctoral symposium. We invite novel contributions related to the fundamental understanding of autonomic computing, self-adaption and self-organization along with principles and practices of their engineering and application. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Autonomic and Self-* system properties: robustness; resilience; resource efficiency; stability; anti-fragility; diversity; self-reference and reflection; emergent behavior; computational awareness and self-awareness; - Autonomic and Self-* systems theory: bio-inspired and socially-inspired paradigms and heuristics; theoretical frameworks and models; formal languages; queuing and control theory; requirement and goal expression techniques; uncertainty as a 1st class entity - Autonomic and Self-* systems engineering: reusable mechanisms and algorithms; design patterns; programming languages; architectures; operating systems and middleware; testing and validation methodologies; runtime models; techniques for assurance; platforms and toolkits; multi-agent systems; - Data-driven management: data mining; machine learning; data science and other statistical techniques to analyze, understand, and manage the behavior of complex systems or establishing self-awareness; - Mechanisms and principles for self-organisation and self-adaptation: inter-operation of self-* mechanisms; evolution, logic, and learning; addressing large-scale and decentralized systems; - Socio-technical self-* systems: human and social factors; visualization; crowdsourcing and collective awareness; - Hardware concepts for autonomic computing systems: self-* materials; self-construction; reconfigurable hardware; - Cross disciplinary research: approaches that draw inspiration from complex systems, organic computing, artificial intelligence, chemistry, psychology, sociology, and biology. We invite research papers applying autonomic and self-* approaches to a wide range of application areas, including: - Smart grids, smart cities, homes, and manufacturing; - Cyber-physical systems; autonomous vehicles and robotics; traffic management; - Self-adaptive cybersecurity; - Internet of Things; - Cloud computing and data centers; - Fog/edge computing; - Hypervisors, operating systems, and middleware. *** Submission Instructions *** Research papers will be accepted as either long papers up to 10 pages or short papers up to 7 pages (including references) and formatted according to the standard IEEE Computer Society Press proceedings style guide. Please submit your papers electronically in PDF format using the ACSOS 2020 conference management system:https://acsos20.hotcrp.com/ <https://eur02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Facsos20.h…> Note that separate calls for Poster, Demo, and In-Practice Report Submissions will also be issued, as well as a call for participation in the Doctoral Symposium. The proceedings will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press and made available as a part of the IEEE Digital Library. As per the standard IEEE policies, all submissions should be original, i.e., they should not have been previously published in any conference proceedings, book, or journal and should not currently be under review for another archival conference. We would also like to highlight IEEE’s policies regarding plagiarism and Self-plagiarism: (https://www.ieee.org/publications/rights/plagiarism/id-plagiarism.html <https://eur02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ieee.…>). Where relevant and appropriate, accepted papers will also be encouraged to participate in the Demo or Poster Sessions. *** Review Criteria *** Papers should present novel ideas in the cross-disciplinary research context described in this call, motivated by problems from current practice or applied research. Both theoretical and empirical contributions should be highlighted, substantiated by formal analysis, simulation, experimental evaluations, or comparative studies. Appropriate references must be made to related work. Due to the cross-disciplinary nature of the ACSOS conference, we encourage papers to be intelligible and relevant to researchers who are not members of the same specialized sub-field. Authors are also encouraged to submit papers describing applications. Application papers should provide an indication of the real-world relevance of the problem that is solved, including a description of the domain, and an evaluation of performance, usability, or comparison to alternative approaches. Experience papers are also welcome, especially if they highlight insights into any aspect of design, implementation or management of self-* systems that would be of benefit to practitioners and the ACSOS community. All submissions will be rigorously peer-reviewed and evaluated based on the quality of their technical contribution, originality, soundness, significance, presentation, understanding of the state of the art, and overall quality. The conference organizers will select one paper to be awarded the Karsten Schwan Best Paper Award. Selected papers may also be invited for publication in a special issue journal on autonomic computing and self organizing systems.
