[AISWorld] CFP- Knowledge Management in Software Engineering (KMISE) at SEKE 2014

Mon Dec 23 05:27:09 EST 2013

The Twenty-Sixth International Conference on Software Engineering and Knowledge Engineering (SEKE 2014) will be held at Hyatt Regency, Vancouver, Canada from July 1 to July 3, 2014. http://www.ksi.edu/seke/seke14.html
**Call for papers**
Knowledge Management in Software Engineering (KMISE) at SEKE 2014

Knowledge management (KM) has been recognized as an essential component of knowledge-intensive processes, such as software engineering. Current software development processes suffer all too often from inappropriate project costs and duration estimations, cancelation and failures. The developed software product is frequently found fragile and unreliable; not fully complying with the requirements; difficult to upgrade and more. KM can facilitate software engineering by different ways, e.g., increasing the reuse of development experience, processes and products and creating a communication layer between developers and end-users. Current KM systems enable to organize the accumulated experience for better storage and retrieval and open internal communication channels within the development teams and external communication channels between the organization and the end-users, throughout the development and integration processes.

The Knowledge Management in Software Engineering track will focus on research that examines real settings where KM is embedded in SE (or produced with the SE), evaluating its role and influence on the software development process and its outcomes.

Papers should clearly establish the research contribution and the relation to previous research.

Suggested topics:

·        Tools and technologies for managing knowledge in SE

·        Methodologies for embedding KM practices in SE

·        Empirical evidence for implementing KM in SE: risks, costs and benefits, and lessons learned

·        KM models in SE

·        Key performance indicators (KPI’s) for measuring and evaluating the influence of KM

·        Incentive programs for enhancing KM adoption

·        KM in worldwide-distributed development teams

·        KM as derived product of system usage analysis (e.g. usage patterns, tacit organizational culture and processes  )

·        KM and SE decision making

·        KM contribution to efficiency (e.g. reuse, cost reduction)

·        SE developer satisfactions.

**Motivation**

Modern enterprises face a strong pressure to increase agility and
competitiveness, to operate on the global market, and to engage in
manifold alliances. However, the vast majority of strategic
initiatives
in enterprises fail, meaning that enterprises are unable to gain
success
from their strategy. The key reason for these failures is the lack of
coherence and consistency among the various components of an
enterprise.
At the same time, the need to operate as a unified and integrated
whole
is becoming increasingly important. Currently, these challenges are
dominantly addressed from a functional or managerial perspective, as
advocated by the management and organization sciences, and as
implemented in MBA programs. Such knowledge is indeed necessary for
managing an enterprise, but it is inadequate for bringing about
changes
in a fully systematic and integrated way. To do that, one needs to
take a
constructional or engineering perspective.

In addition, both organizations and software applications are complex
systems, prone to entropy. This means that in the course of time, the
costs of bringing about similar changes increase in a way that is
known
as combinatorial explosion. Entropy can be reduced and managed
effectively through modular design based on atomic elements.

Lastly, the individual persons in an enterprise, in cooperation, are
ultimately responsible for the effective and efficient operation of
the
enterprise. They are also collectively responsible for the evolution
of
the enterprise, in order to meet new challenges. These
responsibilities
can only be borne if members have an appropriate knowledge and an
effective awareness of the construction of the enterprise given by a
sound engineering aproach.

**Focus and Goal**

The Enterprise Engineering Working Conference 2014 is the fourth
working conference in the emerging field of Enterprise Engineering.
The
goal of the conference is to gather academics and practitioners in
order
to share innovative research issues and practical experiences, and to
facilitate profound discussions about the challenges mentioned above.
It
is the mission of the discipline of Enterprise Engineering to develop
new, appropriate theories, models, methods and other artifacts for the

analysis, design, implementation, and governance of enterprises by
combining (relevant parts of) management and organization science,
information systems science, and computer science. The ambition is to
address traditional topics in said disciplines from the Enterprise
Engineering Paradigm
<http://ciaonetwork.org/phplist/lt.php?id=YU0CBRoBAR1SDQ>
. The result of the efforts should be theoretically rigorous and
practically relevant.

Topics of interest to this working conference include, but are not
limited to:

Business Process ManagementBusiness Process Modeling and
SimulationBusiness RulesBusiness Rules ManagementCollaborative,
Participative, and Interactive ModelingComponent-Based System

================== COOP 2014 - FINAL CALL FOR WORKSHOP PROPOSALS =====================

11th International Conference on the Design of Cooperative Systems. Nice (France).
27-30 May 2014 (workshops to be held on 27th May).

Submission Deadline for workshop proposals: 6th January 2014

http://coop2014.wordpress.com
=======================================================================================

COOP 2014 will be the 11th edition of the COOP conference and will take place in Nice (France), hosted by the Maison des Sciences de I?Homme et de la Soci?t? Sud Est. Historically, COOP brought together the French tradition in Cognitive Ergonomics and the European tradition of CSCW. However, the focus on COOP has now been extended to include a wider set of research questions on technologies and related issues within different social and organisational settings. The conference aims at bringing together researchers who contribute to the analysis and design of cooperative systems, their integration in organizations and other settings, and their implications for policy and decision-making.

Workshops proposals submitted to COOP 2014 may vary from an explorative space for cutting-edge developments and theoretical aspects to addressing specific themes emerging from current research. They should provide an opportunity to discuss and explore emerging areas of research on designing cooperative systems with a group of like minded researchers and practitioners. COOP conferences are known for being discussion oriented and the workshops shall share this characteristic. Topics of workshops may be any aspect of theory or practice, established concerns or new ideas in the field of the design of cooperative systems. The goal of a workshop is to share understandings and experiences, to foster research communities, to learn from each other and to envision future directions.
Workshops can be run for half or one full day, and will take place the day before the main conference, on the 27th of May 2014. Workshops will be open to their participants and to conference participants who will pay workshop registration fees. Workshops organizers will be offered  the possibility to present main topics and to report results of their workshops in a special session during the main conference. It will be the organizers? responsibility to select a panellist who can present the workshop outcomes during the main conference. The exact format of this session will be decided in concert with the workshop organisers also depending on the level of collective desire to report back.

For a sample of workshop topics from last conferences, please look at websites from previous COOP workshop programs (http://coop-2012.grenoble-inp.fr/wprogram.html).

============ PROPOSAL SUBMISSIONS ============

Workshop proposals should consist of an abstract and a detailed proposal. The abstract should be no more than 150 words. The body of the proposal should be no more than 3000 words, and should include:
? Title of the workshop
? Organizers and their background,
? Description of the theme(s) of the workshop,
? Workshop activities and goals,
