CFC: “Exploring Intelligent Decision Support Systems: Current State and New Trends”
by RAFAEL VALENCIA GARCIA 25 May '17

25 May '17

CFC: “Exploring Intelligent Decision Support Systems: Current State and New Trends” To be published by Springer Verlag on Studies in Computational Intelligence book series Overview Decision Support Systems (DSS) are gaining an increased popularity in various domains, including business, engineering, the military, and medicine. They are especially valuable in situations in which the amount of available information is prohibitive for the intuition of an unaided human decision maker and in which precision and optimality are of importance. Decision support systems can aid human cognitive deficiencies by integrating various sources of information, providing intelligent access to relevant knowledge, and aiding the process of structuring decisions. They can also support choice among well-defined alternatives and build on formal approaches, such as the methods of engineering economics, operations research, statistics, and decision theory. They can also employ artificial intelligence methods to address heuristically problems that are intractable by formal techniques. Proper application of decision-making tools increases productivity, efficiency, and effectiveness and gives many businesses a comparative advantage over their competitors, allowing them to make optimal choices for technological processes and their parameters, planning business operations, logistics, or investments. These systems allow individuals and organizations to deal with unstructured or semi-structured decision problems that demand extensive experience and expert knowledge. However, the increasing complexity of the problems and the continuous growing of information and knowledge that should be mastered by responsible people in organizations underline the need for DSSs driven by advanced and modern technologies. From this perspective, the field of DSS is expanding to use new technologies such as Social Media, Semantic Web, Linked Data, Big Data, and Machine Learning. These technologies are converging to provide integrated support for individuals and organizations to make more rational decisions. The objective of this book will be to explore the latest results of research, development and applications of DSSs in different fields. This book proposal will consider the following domains, but will not be limited: aerospace, agriculture, banking, business services, e-commerce, eHealth, e-government, finances, supply chain and others. This book aims to disseminate innovative and high-quality research regarding the foundations, methods, methodologies, models, tools, and techniques for designing, developing, implementing, and evaluating advanced DSSs in different fields. Topic Coverage Topics of interest in this book include, but are not restricted to: • Analytics for decision-making • Application of Knowledge-Based Methods • Big Data mining to support decision-making • Business Intelligence • Collaborative decision making • Data mining • Decision-making and Internet of Things • Decision-making models • Decision-making through machine learning • DSS foundations and development • Experts systems • Fuzzy logic • Geographic information system for decision-making • Knowledge Acquisition & Representation • Knowledge-based Decision Support Systems • Industrial applications and case-studies • Impact of DSS in industrial performance • Linked Data to support decision-making • Multicriteria DSS • Ontological engineering • Operational research and management science • Probabilistic Graphical Models • Semantic knowledge bases for decision making • Social Media use in decision-making • Web-based and mobile DSS • Web 2.0 and 3.0 based knowledge artefacts for decision making Target audience The target audience includes researchers, practitioners and (Masters/PhD) students. Therefore, papers need to address both scientific and practical implications of the research. Type of contributions and length • Case studies: In-depth reports of DSS implementations to support decision-making in an organization or business. • Full research papers: Both quantitative and qualitative contributions that study a particular aspect of Decision Support Systems. Only completed research will be considered, meaning that research in progress will not be considered to be included in the book. • Conceptual papers: Contributions that synthesize existing studies. This type of contributions are typically 15 to 20 pages in length (excluding references) when applying the Springer formatting instructions. Contributions should be original and not be submitted elsewhere. Submission Guidelines and Other Considerations Chapters submitted must not have been previously published or be under consideration for publication in other journals, books, though they may represent significant extensions of prior work. All submitted chapters will undergo a rigorous peer-review process (with at least two reviewers) that will consider programmatic relevance, scientific quality, significance, originality, style and clarity. The acceptance process will focus on chapters that address relevant contributions in the form of theoretical and experimental research and case studies applying new perspectives for developing Decision Support Systems. Before submitting a chapter proposal, authors must carefully read over the Springer’s Author Guidelines. Authors should submit their complete chapter via email: marioandres.paredes(a)um.es , valencia(a)um.es and the subject of the email should be: “Chapter Submission: Exploring Intelligent DSS Current State and New Trends” according to the following timeline. Important Dates • Submission deadline: July 1st, 2017 • First selection of submissions: July 15th, 2017 • Completion of first‐round reviews: September 15th, 2017 • Revised chapters: September 30st, 2017 • Target of the second (last) round of reviews: October, 15th, 2017 • Publication (tentative): Spring 2018 Editors Rafael Valencia-García, Universidad de Murcia, Spain (valencia(a)um.es) Mario Andrés Paredes-Valverde, Universidad de Murcia, Spain (marioandres.paredes(a)um.es) María del Pilar Salas-Zárate, Universidad de Murcia, Spain (mariapilar.salas(a)um.es) Giner Alor-Hernández, Instituto Tecnológico de Orizaba, México (galor(a)itorizaba.edu.mx )

********************************************************************** CALL FOR PAPERS 32nd Italian Conference on Computational Logic (CILC 2017) -- http://cilc2017.unina.it/ Naples, Italy, September 26-29, 2017 ********************************************************************** CILC (Italian Conference on Computational Logic) is the annual conference organized by GULP (Group of researchers and Users of Logic Programming, www.programmazionelogica.it) Its 32nd edition will be held in Naples (Italy) on September 26-29, 2017. Since the first event of the series, which took place in Genoa in 1986, the annual GULP conference represents the main opportunity for users, researchers and developers working in the field of computational logic to meet and exchange ideas. Over the years the conference broadened its horizons from the specific field of logic programming to include declarative programming and applications in neighboring areas such as artificial intelligence and deductive databases. CILC 2017 is co-located with the 18th Italian Conference on Theoretical Computer Science ICTCS 2017 (http://ictcs2017.unina.it/) with which it will share part of the program. The two events will feature plenary events, on September 29, to be specified later. Contributions: -------------- The conference will feature presentations of refereed contributions, including the demonstration of software prototypes, concerning all aspects of computational logic. The conference invites two types of submissions: full papers, possibly already submitted to other conferences or journals, and short papers, which are particularly suitable for presenting work in progress, software prototypes, extended abstracts of doctoral theses, or general overviews of research projects. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: Logic Programming, Constraint Programming and other paradigms of declarative programming Extensions and integrations of declarative programming paradigms Analysis, transformation, validation, and verification of programs Instruments and environments for program development Implementations and benchmarking Model Checking Temporal logics Automated Theorem Proving Non-Monotonic Reasoning Answer Set Programming Knowledge representation and extraction Treatment of uncertain and incomplete knowledge Approximate Reasoning Abductive Logic Programming Model-based Reasoning Inductive Logic Programming Deductive Databases Data Mining and Data Integration Multi-agent systems Logics for strategic reasoning Semantic Web Natural Language Processing Computational logic for concurrency, coordination, mobility and objects Planning and scheduling Probabilistic Logic Programming Computational Logic and formal methods in Artificial Intelligence Applications of Computational Logic Pedagogy of Computational Logic Invited Speakers: ----------------- The invited speakers for this joint CILC/ICTCS event are: Mario Alviano, University of Calabria Laura Giordano, Università del Piemonte Orientale Alessio Lomuscio, Imperial College London Important dates: ---------------- Abstract, paper, and demo submission deadline: 25 May 2017 Notification of acceptance: 30 June 2017 Final version and early registration deadline: 24 July 2017 Conference: 26-29 September 2017 Submission instructions: ------------------------ Authors are invited to submit their manuscripts in PDF via the EasyChair system at the link: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=cilc2017 Articles must not exceed 15 pages for full papers and 5 pages for short papers, respectively. Manuscripts should be formatted using the Springer LNCS style. To ease the reviewing process, the authors of regular papers may add an appendix (although reviewers are not required to consider it in their evaluation). All contributions must be written in English. In particular, we invite submissions of system or prototype software descriptions which use techniques or tools of computational logic, or which themselves aid the development of applications based on computational logic. Systems of both research and industrial character are welcome. Submissions must include a brief description, prepared according to the guidelines given for short papers, and a specification of the required hardware and software equipment. For each accepted contribution, at least one of the authors is required to attend the conference and present the paper. The event is organized by GULP. Therefore, Italian attendants are required to be members of GULP (it is possible to join GULP at the conference). Proceedings: ------------ All accepted original contributions (both full and short) will be published on CEUR-WS.org. Non-original communications will be given visibility on the conference web site including a link to the original publication if already published. As in previous years, we plan to publish a selection of the best papers in a special issue of an international journal (to be determined). This is open to full and short papers that have not been published in a journal.

The Fourth International Workshop on Graphical Models for Security Santa Barbara, CA, USA - August 21, 2017 http://gramsec.uni.lu Co-located with CSF 2017 LNCS proceedings confirmed Following several requests, the submission deadline has been extended until Sunday, May 28. SCOPE Graphical security models provide an intuitive but systematic approach to analyze security weaknesses of systems and to evaluate potential protection measures. Cyber security researchers, as well as security professionals from industry and government, have proposed various graphical security modeling schemes. Such models are used to capture different security facets (digital, physical, and social) and address a range of challenges including vulnerability assessment, risk analysis, defense analysis, automated defensing, secure services composition, policy validation and verification. The objective of the GraMSec workshop is to contribute to the development of well-founded graphical security models, efficient algorithms for their analysis, as well as methodologies for their practical usage. TOPICS The workshop seeks submissions from academia, industry, and government presenting novel research on all theoretical and practical aspects of graphical models for security. The topics of the workshop include, but are not limited to: • Graphical models for threat modeling and analysis • Graphical models for risk analysis and management • Graphical models for requirements analysis and management • Textual and graphical representation for system, organizational, and business security • Visual security modeling and analysis of socio-technical and cyber-physical systems • Graphical security modeling for cyber situational awareness • Graphical models supporting the security by design paradigm • Methods for quantitative and qualitative analysis of graphical security models • Formal semantics and verification of graphical security models • Methods for (semi-)automatic generation of graphical security models • Enhancement and/or optimization of existing graphical security models • Scalable evaluation of graphical security models • Evaluation algorithms for graphical security models • Dynamic update of graphical security models • Game theoretical approaches to graphical security modeling • Attack trees, attack graphs and their variants • Stochastic Petri nets, Markov chains, and Bayesian networks for security • UML-based models and other graphical modeling approaches for security • Software tools for graphical security modeling and analysis • Case studies and experience reports on the use of graphical security modeling paradigm INVITED SPEAKER To be confirmed. PAPER SUBMISSION We solicit two types of submissions: • Regular papers (up to 15 pages, excluding the bibliography and well-marked appendices) describing original and unpublished work within the scope of the workshop. • Short papers (up to 7 pages, excluding the bibliography and well-marked appendices) describing original and unpublished work in progress. The reviewers are not required to read the appendices, so the papers should be intelligible without them. All submissions must be prepared using the LNCS style: http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-793341-0 Each paper will undergo a thorough review process. All accepted (regular and short) papers will be included in the workshop's post-proceedings.
