CALL FOR PAPERS
15th Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS 2009 - http://amcis2009.org/) San Francisco, California, August 6 - 9, 2009 (Thursday-Sunday)
TRACK: INTELLIGENT SYSTEMS (SIGABIS) Chair: Vijayan Sugumaran (Oakland University) http://amcis2009.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=12...
Complete Papers Due: February 20, 2009
The purpose of this track is to provide a forum for academics and practitioners to identify and explore the issues, opportunities, and solutions related to intelligent systems design, implementation, integration and deployment. An increasing number of artificial intelligence-based systems are being developed in different application domains employing a variety of tools and technologies. This track is intended to increase cross-fertilization of ideas from these domains, and share the lessons learned.
This Track is sponsored by AIS Special Interest Group on Agent-Based Information Systems (SIGABIS). Best papers from this Track will be fast tracked for publication in a special issue of International Journal of Intelligent Information Technologies (IJIIT). This track contains the following four mini-tracks:
Mini-Tracks =========== * Artificial Intelligence and Data Mining (Chair: Riyaz T. Sikora) * Grid computing (Chair: Manish Agrawal) * Intelligent Agent and Multi-Agent Systems (Co-chairs: Vijayan Sugumaran, Stefan Kirn) * Semantic Web and Ontology (Chair: Victoria Y. Yoon)
A brief description of each of the mini-tracks is given below.
Mini-Track: Artificial Intelligence and Data Mining =================================================== Riyaz T. Sikora (co-chair SIGABIS) University of Texas at Arlington
One of the side effects of the increase in connectivity and collaboration has been the phenomenal increase in the magnitude and volatility of the available data. Intelligent methods are now emerging as a way to deal with this staggering variety and volume of data in distributed and heterogeneous environments. This has become especially relevant since most large-scale information systems applications of today assume that components will be added dynamically and that they will be autonomous (serve different users or providers and fulfill different goals) and heterogeneous (be built in different ways).
The mini-track on AI and DM provides a forum to bring together like-minded researchers, teachers, and practitioners to advance this important field. The AI/DM mini-track will seek research and applications highlighting the frontiers of new knowledge and advances in AI and DM. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Foundations of AI and DM * Machine Learning and Statistical Learning Algorithms * Data Mining * Pattern Recognition * Intelligent Agents * Heuristic Search * Intelligent Information Retrieval * Support Vector Machines * Web/Text mining * Intelligent Search Techniques * Reinforcement Learning
Mini-Track: Grid Computing ========================== Manish Agrawal University of South Florida
Grid computing potentially creates enormous processing power dedicated to large computing-intensive tasks. Common uses of grid computing include computer aided design, drug discovery, back-office data processing, information services, and other interesting academic and social problems such as the search for extra-terrestrial life. The emergence of grid computing has led to research questions including the generalizability of grid computing solutions, information privacy and assurance on the grid, and problem decomposition. The purpose of this mini-track is to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners to explore these and other problems, ideas, experiences, and solutions on grid computing.
Potential topics (not limited to): * Grid architectures * Grid applications * Information services on grids * Grid application workflows * Privacy on grid hosts * Heterogeneity on the grid * Trust development within the grid * Information assurance on the grid * Development models * Grid resource management * Business and social implications of grids
Mini-Track: Intelligent Agent and Multi-Agent Systems ===================================================== Vijayan Sugumaran, Oakland University Stefan Kirn, Universität Hohenheim
While research on intelligent agent and multi-agent systems have progressed, there are still a number of issues that have to be explored in terms of agent design, implementation, integration, and deployment. For example, salient characteristics of agents in different domains, formal approaches for agent-oriented modeling, designing and implementing agent-oriented information systems, agent collaboration and coordination in multi-agent systems, and organizational impact of agent-based systems are some of the areas in need of further research.
Possible Topics (but not limited to): * Intelligent Applications in Business * Distributed Intelligent Systems * Agent architectures and behavior models * Models and architectures for agent-oriented information systems * Agent-oriented software engineering * Multi-agent systems and applications * Agent collaboration, and coordination * Human and agent interaction models * Agent-based process and workflow systems * Agents and knowledge management * Agent-based simulation * Agent-based e-commerce applications * Mobile Agents * Privacy, security, and trust issues in agent-based environments * Organizational impact of agent-based systems
Mini-Track: Semantic Web and Ontology ===================================== Victoria Y. Yoon University of Maryland Baltimore County
Semantic Web has been recognized as one of the most important Information Technologies and has received considerable attention from both academia and industry. Semantic Web has made significant progress over several years when numerous issues have been addressed and many applications have been developed. However, despite all of these advances, the current state of Semantic Web requires significant improvements to make it more effective in a broader range of applications.
This mini-track will provide a forum for gaining a better understanding of these new technologies and their business aspects. Potential authors/researchers are encouraged to submit papers that address the issues related to designing, developing, and evaluating Semantic Web/Ontology from the technical, behavioral, economical, or managerial perspectives.
This mini-track will focus on: * Semantic interoperability * Semantic web for e-business and e-learning * Service discovery, description, and composition * Semantic Web mining * Ontology creation, evolution, reconciliation, and mediation * Ontology mapping, Integration, and/or alignment * Software agents for Semantic Web * Innovative Semantic Web/Ontology applications * Managerial Issues of Semantic Web/Ontology
