> One of the major assets of any organization is its people. Understanding of
> the people and their social, psychological, cultural, and emotional
> environment helps organizations develop systems and processes that can lead

> Technology supported collaboration and communication between individuals
> entails complex social and psychological situations. An understanding of
> social and psychological aspects of collaboration is essential to creating
> and sustaining productive work environments. The use of collaboration and
> communication systems and the consequences of such use are framed by the
> psychological and social factors concerning the users and their work
> environment. It is important to understand these factors to successfully
> facilitate the sustained implementation and use of these technologies.
> Further, knowledge of the psycho-social aspects of technology-supported
> collaboration and communication also assists in detecting, avoiding, and
> effectively resolving the issues that may arise from using such
> technologies. Thus, it is essential to study the psycho-social issues
> surrounding the design and usage of these technologies.
> 
> 
> 
> Modern collaboration technologies, including but not limited to Social Media
> and Web 2.0, offer various ways to connect, collaborate, form communities,
> and share information and knowledge. As many organizations are figuring out
> productive ways to create value from collaborative networks, researchers
> have intensified efforts to understand and design ways in which
> communication technologies can support both work-related and pleasure
> related activities. Such research often involves or requires psychosocial
> perspectives.

> The European Conference on Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing (ESOCC) 
> is the premier conference on the advances in the state of the art and 
> practice of Service-Oriented Computing and Cloud Computing. During the 
> past edition of ECOWS (European Conference on Web Services) conference, 
> the Steering Committee decided to renew and broaden its scope, and 
> to start a new conference series on the topics of service-oriented and 
> cloud computing. The first edition of the new series, ESOCC 2012, will 
> be held in Bertinoro from 19th to 21st of September, 2012. The main 
> objectives of this conference are to facilitate the exchange between 
> researchers and practitioners and to foster future collaborations in 
> Europe and beyond. The ESOCC 2012 conference will include invited 
> speakers, presentations of contributed research papers and an industrial 
> track with the participation of top researchers from industry.

> *Context*: Improving access and delivery of health care is a very
> actual topic in many countries. In order to meet the challenges
> posed by growing medical costs, aging population and limited
> resources, new technologies and new methods are urgently
> needed.
> 
> The envisioned SMC 2012 <http://www.smc2012.org/> DSS4HCP special session
> aims to
> discuss and produce such novel technologies and methods,
> especially those for decision support.  The session focuses on
> decisions that take into account both clinical and logistic
> aspects.  More specifically, the purpose of the session is to
> balance between optimal care quality and manageable costs for
> societies and insurance companies.  *Advanced decision support *
> *systems* and *workflow management systems* can make care
> delivery respectively more evidence-based and more efficient.
> Moreover, *process discovery* and *conformance checking *
> methods can be used to ensure that computerized models are
> based on the operational facts rather than on wishful thinking.
> *A particular challenge however remains to bridge the gap *
> *between medical, administrative and logistic processes. *
> Therefore, we welcome especially techniques that reconcile
> clinical decision support systems, nurse support workflows,
> patient planning systems as well as legacy systems from
> previously isolated players in integrated healthcare enterprises
> and cross-organizational care supply chains.
> 
> *Topics of interest *include, but are not limited to:
> ? clinical decision support,
> ? decision support for making care delivery more efficient,
> ? decision support for patient scheduling in integrated care delivery
> chains/networks,
> ? intelligent systems for healthcare decision support,
> ? translating clinical guidelines into care protocols,
> ? integrating clinical guidelines and care protocols with administrative
> workflows,
> ? using collaborative information systems and portable devices in this
> context.
> 
> *Important Dates*

> One such new technology that holds considerable promise for helping to
> engage learners is Games-Based Learning (GBL). The Conference offers an
> opportunity for scholars and practitioners interested in the issues
> related to GBL to share their thinking and research findings. Papers can
> cover various issues and aspects of GBL in education and training:
> technology and implementation issues associated with the development of
> GBL; use of mobile and MMOGs for learning; pedagogical issues associated
> with GBL; social and ethical issues in GBL; GBL best cases and
> practices, and other related aspects. We are particularly interested in
> empirical research that addresses whether GBL enhances learning. This
> Conference provides a forum for discussion, collaboration and
> intellectual exchange for all those interested in any of these fields of
> research or practice.  
> 
> 
> 
> The conference committee welcomes contributions on a wide range of
> topics using a range of scholarly approaches including theoretical and
> empirical papers employing qualitative, quantitative and critical
> methods. Action research, case studies and work-in-progress/posters are
> welcomed approaches. PhD Research, proposals for roundtable discussions,
> non-academic contributions and product demonstrations based on the main
> themes are also invited.

> OVERVIEW
> 
> -------------------------------------
> 
> During the past two decades, information security technology developments
> have been mainly concerned with intrusion detection to prevent unauthorized
> attacks from outside the network.  This includes hacking, virus
> propagation, spyware and more. However, according to a recent Gartner
> Research Report, information leaks have drastically increased from insiders
> who are legally authorized to access corporate information.
> 
> 
> 
> The unauthorized leak of critical or proprietary information can cause
> significant damage to corporate image and reputation, perhaps even
> weakening its competitiveness in the marketplace. On a larger scale,
> government and public sectors may suffer competitive loss to other nations
> due to an internal intelligence breach. While the leaking of critical
> information by insiders has a lower public profile than that of viruses and
> hacker attacks, the financial impact and loss can be just as devastating.
> 
> 
> 
> The objective of this workshop is to showcase the most recent challenges
> and advances in security technologies and management systems for preventing
> information breaches by insiders. The workshop promotes state-of-the-art
> research, surveys and case analyses of practical significance.  Physical,
> managerial, and technical countermeasures will be covered in the context of
> an integrated security management system that protects critical
> cyber-infrastructure against unauthorized internal attack. We expect that
> this workshop will be a trigger for further research and technology
> improvements related to this important subject.
