[Dbworld] CFP: rBPM 2010 (1st International Workshop on Reuse in Business Process Management)


1st International Workshop on Reuse in Business Process Management (rBPM 2010)
http://each.uspnet.usp.br/rbpm2010

September 13, 2010
Hoboken, New Jersey - USA (close to New York City)

In conjunction with the 8th International Conference on Business Process Management (BPM 2010)
http://www.bpm2010.org

 
---------- CALL FOR PAPERS ----------

 
Aims and Scope
==============
The current complexity inherent in the corporative world demands a great dynamism from the IT
infrastructure in order to provide technical solutions for conducting business cooperatively based on
their information systems. Business Process Management (BPM), including its service-oriented
foundation, has been providing important technological support to improve organization
competitiveness. In order to increase dynamism and competitiveness, BPM can benefit from reuse
approaches and techniques at several stages of business process life cycle.

This workshop will be dedicated to explore any type of reuse in the Business Process Management domain.
Therefore, it will be a forum to discuss systematic reuse applied to BPM at its various levels: a) the basic
service-oriented foundation level – including issues such as service development, description,
publication, discovery and selection; b) the service composition level – encompassing service
negotiation and service aggregation; c) the management and monitoring upper level – including
business process modeling, execution, monitoring, and contract establishment and enactment; and, d)
the Quality of Service and Semantics orthogonal level. Moreover, the impact of reuse on business- and

[Dbworld] CALL FOR PAPERS: Special Issue of IEEE TKDE on Keyword Search on Structured Data


         CALL FOR PAPERS: Keyword Search on Structured Data 
	
   Special Issue of IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering

       Guest Edtiors: Surajit Chaudhuri, Yi Chen, Jeffrey Xu Yu

========================================================================

Web search engines have popularized the keyword search queries for text 
documents. With increasing number of consumers facing structured data stores, 
it is now also important to support keyword search queries efficiently 
over such data stores. Just as keyword search is popular over not only 
on web documents but also on the intranet of the enterprises, keyword 
search over databases is also important for structured data collections 
on the intranet and indeed on individual databases. However, due to the 
inherent ambiguity of keyword search queries and the richness of semantics 
attached to structured data, data, providing intelligent search results 
efficiently is extremely challenging. This special issue of TKDE on 
“Keyword Search on Structured Data” calls for original articles that 
propose innovative approaches to address this challenging task. 

=======================
Topics
=======================
Original contributions, not currently under review or accepted by another 
journal, are solicited in areas including (but not limited to):
  •	Keyword search on relational databases 
  •	Keyword search on XML data 
  •	Keyword search on extracted data from text documents

Call for Papers for the Third IEEE International Symposium
on Trust, Security and Privacy for Emerging Applications (TSP-10) 

Organizer: Trusted Computing Institute, Central South University, China
Bradford, UK, 29 June-1 July, 2010 
http://trust.csu.edu.cn/conference/tsp2010
To be held in conjunction with
The 10th IEEE International Conference on Computer and Information Technology (CIT 2010) 
http://www.scim.brad.ac.uk/~ylwu/CIT2010/

Introduction
Satisfying user requirements for trust, security and privacy in an efficient way is one of the first
considerations for almost all emerging applications, using emerging technologies such as pervasive
computing, peer to peer computing, grid computing, cloud computing, virtualization and, mobile and
wireless technologies. Challenges arise as emerging applications evolve to provide more scalable and
comprehensive services. One of the biggest challenges is that traditional security technologies and
measures may not meet user requirements in open, dynamic, heterogeneous, and distributed computing
environments. Therefore, we need to build networks and systems in which emerging applications allow
users to enjoy more scalable and comprehensive services while preserving trust, security and privacy at
the same time.

Following the success of TSP 2008 in Shanghai, China during December 17-20, 2008, and TSP-09 in Macau SAR,

[Dbworld] CEUR-WS.org: free online workshop proceedings

Dear colleagues,

in a collaboration between RWTH Aachen, Tilburg University
and EPFL Lausanne we offer the service of 
   http://ceur-ws.org
for online publication of workshop/conference proceedings.
The service is free of charge. The copyright of papers remains
with the authors and the copyright of the whole volume
remains with its editors. 

Around 560 proceedings volumes are currently published on
CEUR-WS.org. There are around 6000 real paper downloads per day
(access by bots of search engines not counted).

Recently, we started to add persistent identifiers (URNs)
to published volumes. The URN is a counterpart of an ISBN number. 
We also have started to tag the volume index files so that
online bibliographies can automatically extract the bibliographic data.

Details on the procedure to submit a proceedings volume are available from
  http://sunsite.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/Publications/CEUR-WS/HOWTOSUBMIT.html

So if you are organizing a workshop (or conference) and look
for a cost-effective publication channel, then please consider CEUR-WS.org!

Kind greetings: Manfred Jeusfeld, Ruzica Piskac
