---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2nd International Workshop on Semantic Digital Archives(SDA)
in conjunction with the 16th Int. Conference on Theory and Practice of
Digital Libraries (TPDL)
27th September 2012 in Paphos, Cyprus
http://sda2012.dke-research.de/
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OBJECTIVES:
The workshop "Semantic Digital Archives" aims to promote and discuss
sophisticated knowledge representation and knowledge management
solutions specifically designed for improving Archival Information
Systems. It can be expected that using Semantic (Web) technologies in
general and Linked Data in particular can mature the area of digital
archiving and preservation, as well as technologically tighten the
natural bond between digital libraries and digital archives, which are
approaching this topic from different views (e.g., there might be
promising combinations of pertinence and provenance models since those
are traditionally the prevailing knowledge organization principles of
the library and archiving community, respectively). Semantic
representations of contextual knowledge about cultural heritage
objects enhance organization and access of data and knowledge. In
order to achieve a comprehensive investigation, the information
seeking and document triage behaviors of users have to be included in
the research as well. For the purpose of a comprehensive investigation
of the topic, it is intended to bring together the digital libraries
community, the digital archiving community and the semantic
technologies community. This full day workshop will be an exciting
opportunity for collaboration and cross-fertilization. We also
explicitly encourage a closer dialogue between the technical oriented
communities with people from the (digital) humanities and social
sciences, as well as cultural heritage institutions in general in
order to approach the topic from all relevant angles and perspectives.
TOPICS OF INTEREST
We intend to have an open discussion on topics related to the general
subject of Semantic Digital Archives. Hence, we welcome contributions
that focus on, but are not limited to:
* Ontologies & linked data for digital archives and digital libraries
(including multimedia archives)
* Semantic search & semantic information retrieval in digital archives
and digital libraries (including multimedia archives)
* Implementations and evaluations of semantic digital archives
* Visualization and exploration of content in large digital archives
* User interfaces for semantic digital libraries
* User interfaces for intelligent information retrieval (including
multimedia information retrieval)
* User studies focusing on end-user needs and information seeking
behavior of end-users (document triage)
* Semantic (Web) services implementing the OAIS standard
* Logical theories for digital archives
* Theoretical and practical archiving frameworks using Semantic (Web)
technologies
* Semantic or logical provenance models for digital archives or
digital libraries
* Knowledge evolution
* Information integration/semantic ingest (e.g. from digital libraries)
* Trust for ingest & data security/integrity check for long-term
storage of archival records
* Semantic extensions of emulation/virtualization methodologies for
digital archives
* Semantic long-term storage and hardware organization tailored for
digital archives
* Migration strategies based on Semantic (Web) technologies
SUBMISSION DETAILS:

Journal of Information Privacy and Security (JIPS) http://jips.cob.tamucc.edu/
CALL FOR PAPERS:
Editor-in-Chief: Kallol Bagchi, The University of Texas, El Paso
Mission
The mission of the Journal of Information Privacy and Security (JIPS) is to serve both academics and practitioners as a reliable source on issues of information privacy and security. The Journal is a high quality refereed journal that seeks support from academicians, industry experts and specific government agencies. The JIPS focuses on publishing articles that address the paradoxical nature of privacy versus security amidst current global conditions. It is increasingly important that various constituents of information begin to understand their role in finding solutions to achieve a delicate balance between security and privacy.

http://www.rhsmith.umd.edu/chids/white
Chair: Ritu Agarwal
Program co-chairs: Guodong (Gordon) Gao and Jeffrey S. McCullough
We are pleased to announce the 3rd Annual Workshop on Health IT and
Economics (WHITE). Health information technology (IT) offers the potential
to improve the quality and reduce the cost of healthcare delivery. However,
significant challenges remain regarding design, implementation,
utilization, and evaluation of health IT. There is a compelling need for
research that can inform both policymakers and practitioners.
WHITE is a health IT summit that gathers prominent scholars in a
multidisciplinary setting. Inaugurated in 2010, each year WHITE attracts
nearly 100 scholars and thought leaders from more than 40 institutes. This
workshop provides a forum for researchers to disseminate their work and
network within a growing and vibrant community. WHITE also fosters
collaborations between academia, government, and industry.
We solicit papers on a wide range of topics, including, but not limited to,
the following: health IT adoption barriers; assimilation of health IT into
workflows and organizations; impacts of health IT investments; measures and
incentives for meaningful use; business models for health information
exchanges; IT-enabled new organization forms and delivery processes; market
competition and health insurance exchange; health 2.0 and empowering
patients; quality transparency and public reporting; as well as medical
analytics.
The 3rd WHITE will be held in Washington DC, center of health policy
debates. The conference is hosted by the Center for Health Information and
Decision Systems (CHIDS) at the Robert H. Smith School of Business of
University of Maryland. CHIDS (www.rhsmith.umd.edu/chids) was established
in 2005, and is the first academic research center focused on health
information and decision systems in a leading business school. Partial
support for WHITE is provided by the Agency for Healthcare Research and
Quality (AHRQ).
Please submit an extended abstract of no more than 5 pages (11-point font,
one-inch margins on four sides, double-spaced) to

Introduction:
Big data is an emerging paradigm applied to datasets whose size is beyond
the ability of commonly used software tools to capture, manage, and process
the data within a tolerable elapsed time. Such datasets are often from
various sources (Variety) yet unstructured such as social media, sensors,
scientific applications, surveillance, video and image archives, Internet
texts and documents, Internet search indexing, medical records, business
transactions and web logs;and are of large size (Volume) with fast data
in/out (Velocity). Various technologies are being discussed to support the
handling of big data such as massively parallel processing databases,
scalable storage systems, cloud computing platforms, and MapReduce.
MapReduce is a distributed programming paradigm and an associated
implementation to support distributed computing over large datasets on
cloud. This symposium aims at providing a forum for researchers,
practitioners and developers from different background areas!
such as cloud computing, distributed computing and database area to
exchange the latest experience, research ideas and synergic research and
development on fundamental issues and applications about big data and
MapReduce in cloud environments. The symposium solicits high quality
research results in all related areas.

SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS
MEDIA ARCHITECTURE BIENNALE 2012
November 15-17, 2012
Aarhus, Denmark
!! SUBMISSION DEADLINE: July 20 !!
Building on the successful event in Vienna 2010, Media Architecture
Biennale 2012 brings together artists, practitioners and researchers from
academia and industry in the ongoing exploration of the meeting between
architecture and digital media. The 2012 Biennale comprises an academic
conference track, exhibitions, and industry sessions, as well as a full day
of workshops. Our vision is to provide an excellent forum for debate and
knowledge exchange; to offer a unique opportunity that brings together the
best minds and organizations; and to highlight state-of-the-art and
experimental research in media architecture.
THEME: PARTICIPATION
The design of media architecture invites encounters between people, the
built environment, and digital media. It opens up rich opportunities for
new forms of participation through dialogue and engagement. As an emerging
field, diverse perspectives are coming together in media architecture, and
the challenges are as abundant as the opportunities. At the conference, we
explore ?participation? as a core value of media architecture. In this
context, participation may occur in the initial design stages of media
architecture, e.g. as different practitioners, stakeholders and potential
audiences take part in shaping future media architecture; it may occur when
media architecture is realized and people experience and interact with it,
e.g. when public spaces and urban environments and the practices they shape
are influenced by elements of media architecture; it may also occur as new
platforms give rise to new opportunities for shaping systems and
surroundings.
TOPICS
We consider media architecture as an inclusive term that encompasses
encounters and intersections between digital technologies and our physical
surroundings. In this respect, we invite papers that present and discuss
novel contributions to media architecture both on a practical and
theoretical level and that further our understanding of the field through
case studies, design approaches, and best practices. We expect
contributions to critically explore a wide range of topics including, but
not limited to:
- Case Studies of Specific Projects
- Future Trends and Prototypes
- Media Facades and Urban Displays
- Interaction Techniques and Interfaces
- Social and Cultural Aspects of Media Architecture
- Historical Perspectives on the Intersection between Media and the Built
Environment
- Design Processes and Methods
- Participatory City Planning and Developing Urban Media Environments
- Participatory Architecture
- Spatial Locative Media
- Development and Design of Content for Specific Contexts
SUBMISSION DETAILS AND DEADLINE
The conference invites research presentations from both academia and
industry. We are currently seeking a publishing agreement with a major
publisher for the academic proceedings. We invite both short and long
papers. Submitted papers should be a maximum of four and ten pages in
length, for short and long papers respectively, in ACM format (
http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates). The papers
should clearly explain the research question addressed, research methods
and tasks, findings or results, and contributions of the work. Papers
should also provide sufficient background and related work to situate and
contextualize the authors? work within the greater body of research.
Submissions should consist of original work not previously published or
concurrently under consideration for any other conference, workshop,
journal, or other publication with an ISBN, ISSN or DOI number. Authors
must provide a 30-word contribution statement for their paper upon
submission. The contribution statement should explain the contribution made
by the paper to the Media Architecture community.
Papers will be peer-reviewed by multiple members of a program committee
consisting of experts in a range of disciplines that shape media
architecture.

Call For Papers
Workshop on MATERIALITY FOR PARTICIPATION
14th October 2012, at NordiCHI 2012, Copenhagen, Denmark
Deadline for submissions: 20 August 2012
Web-page: http://www.cs.au.dk/~olavb/mat4par2012/
========================================================================
Abstract
--------
We would like to discuss the relations between materiality,
appropriation, and participation in a wide range of fields and
applications, extending beyond the workplace. We suggest that ideas of
digital materiality could be a fruitful starting point when discussing
participation beyond the strategic level of work arrangements. This
includes complex mediation and a strengthened analytical focus on
participation in an aesthetic and cultural perspective.
The workshop seeks to attract interested or intrigued people working
theoretically, practically, artistically, analytically, etceteratically
in fields related to design and use of interactive technology, who would
like to explore the intersection between materiality and participation.
Background and workshop theme
-----------------------------
Complex mediation structures in new and evolving fields of IT-use,
liquefy the distinction between tool and material. In both use and
development of new forms of software, tools turn into materials, and
objects of interest become instrumental mediators that reshape software
itself. We believe, that by changing perspective from the triadic
subject-instrument-object mediation to complex mediational structures,
an analytical sensitivity for the material qualities of software in use
is opened.
This materiality presents itself on many levels that can be addressed
individually or in combination:
* the physical materiality of software established through tangible
interaction devices,
* the simulated materiality of the graphical user interface,
* a moldable materiality of software with changeable and reconfigurable
functionality,
* as materialized when software is interpreted and interacted with
through use ? from the low level of code and algorithms, over the
interface, its metaphors and interaction, to the domain specific
products resulting from use.
The processes and products of software have become sensuous forms with
aesthetic meaning that enable appropriation and participation in a
broader sense of cultural and aesthetic engagement beyond the
pre-planned. By broadening the scope of participation to include
cultural and aesthetic perspectives, the concept of participation can be
re-actualized and move beyond the traditional understanding of
participation in IT-development. This was coined in the early trade
union cooperation projects of the seventies and eighties that focused on
co-determination in technological change at the workplace. While,
historically, the focus of design methods and intervention was on
co-determination, theoretical and empirical work pointed out that use
qualities are constituted in use, and that un-anticipated use occur in
most situations of IT use. Subsequently, that led to work on tailoring
and end-user programming, and to a theoretical interest for
appropriation.
Still, we seem to miss frameworks for understanding and designing
technical substrates that accommodate fluid appropriation and extend
into the collectively moldable. Thus, in discussing participation beyond
the strategic level of work arrangements we suggest that ideas of
digital materiality ? like those sketched above ? could be a fruitful
starting point.
Workshop goals
--------------
The Workshop will explore the relations between the materiality of
computing technologies and participation in use and design.
The goal of the workshop is to inspire and further discussions and new
perspectives in the intersection between understanding the materiality
of computing technologies and appreciating participation in aesthetic
and cultural perspectives in both use and design.
The day will be organised based on the submitted position papers, in a
format promoting discussion and innovation.
Proceedings comprising accepted papers will be published in the
organisers? department publication series. We will also seek to sustain
the discussions in more archival format.
Call for Position papers
------------------------
We invite position papers from people interested in contributing to the
ongoing discussion on materiality in relation to participation in use
and design of interactive technologies.
Position papers can be formated freely formated but should be fitted on
two pages A4 paper. Submission by email, in PDF format, to
olavb at cs.au.dk no later than August 20, 2012.
Possible themes include, but are not restricted to:
* Software creativity.
* Digital materiality.
* Appropriation and reception of software.
* Participatory design.
* Instrumentality.
* Representational forms.
* Code as material.
* Tools vs. materials.

DESCRIPTION
Following our very successful pre-ICIS workshops in Paris, Phoenix, Saint
Louis, Shanghai and pre-ECIS and AMCIS workshops and tracks, the 5th Annual
SIG GlobDev Workshop will again provide a forum for discussion of practical
experience and research related to the diffusion and use of information and
communication technologies (ICT) in developing regions of the world. The
papers in this workshop will also further knowledge of what we know about
how ICT enables the global economy by enabling local needs to be met.
Development is the improvement in the lives of people and this is often made
possible by ICTs.
A continuing problem in advancing the program of ICT for social development
is the shortage of expertise in many developing countries. While many gains
have been made, the shortage of skilled ICT professionals, low levels of ICT
literacy and the 'brain drain' of ICT specialists to developed regions of
the world could undermine progress. In addition, access to ICT resources and
the ability to use these resources have the potential to better the lives of
people. Innovations in ICTs have enabled access to services such as mPESA
that provide access to financial services through cellphones, telecenters
that enable innovative uses of existing technologies to help communities
access needed resources. At the same time, people who are unable to have
access to the ICTs and the innovations associated with them become
marginalized.
In order to address these issues, human capital and capacity building are
seen to be important concepts in understanding development. Human capital
is seen to be a key driver of development in that human capital is the
knowledge, skills and capacity that enable people to achieve their goals and
take the opportunities presented to them. The ability to access and use ICT
resources in innovative ways, requires skill and literacy. In their
editorial in the Information Technology for Development Journal, Bada and
Madon (2010) state that changes in ICT and their applications have placed
new demands on the stock of human capital required to function effectively
in the changing global technological and business environment. The
collective stock of human capital also effects the capacity of a region to
grow from ICT investments and infrastructure. Building capacity for
development involves harnessing human capital to enable the innovative uses
of ICT to bring about economic, human and/or social development.
We invite papers, panel session proposals, and field studies that can inform
theory and provide guidelines to field workers in developing economies. Both
research and practice papers are encouraged. Graduate student papers will be
given special consideration. Areas of interest for the 5th Annual GlobDev
Workshop include but are not limited to:
1. The role of government policy in fostering ICT human capital and
capacity building
2. New frameworks and models for fostering ICT human capital and
capacity building
3. Critical and theoretical perspectives on the digital divide and
social inclusion
4. Challenges of ICT human capital and capacity building in remote
regions
5. Educational systems; content provision and delivery; developing ICT
skills
6. Mobile technologies as infrastructure for ICT human capital and
capacity building
7. Frugal Innovation and innovative ways in which technologies are
applied in developing regions.
Any combination of the above or aspects of human capital and capacity
building for development will be considered.

Introduction:
Social network analysis and cloud computing are two of the most exciting
new trends in the recent developments of information technology. As the new
generation computing paradigm, cloud enables computing resources to be
provided as IT services in a pay-as-you-go fashion with high efficiency and
effectiveness. With the popularity of social software as well as the fast
development of cloud and other high-performance computing infrastructures,
the outcome of social network analysis is becoming more and more
attractive. However, information privacy and security issues are major
challenges in both these areas. This symposium aims at providing a forum
for researchers, practitioners and developers from different background
areas such as distributed computing, social computing, information security
and privacy protection areas to exchange the latest experience, research
ideas and synergic research and development on fundamental issues and
applications about security and privacy issues in cloud environments and
social networks. The symposium solicits high quality research results in
all related areas.
