[DECON'19] Call for papers
by DECON'19 International Conference 22 Dec '18

22 Dec '18

[DECON\'19] Call for papers ww.decision-economics.net info(a)decision-economics.net (info@info@decision-economics.net) International Conference on Decision Economics University of Salamanca Ávila (Spain) | 26th - 22th June, 2019 SCOPE Decision Economics is a growing field of research which has been given much attention by several scholars in recent decades. The International Conference on Decision Economics (DECON 2019) is a multidisciplinary international forum dedicated to advancing knowledge and improving instruction in economics, business, computer science, psychology, quantitative methods and related disciplines. To pursue this mission, DECON 2019 will facilitate the development and dissemination of knowledge in the diverse disciplines of the decision sciences in the tradition of Herbert A. Simon’s interdisciplinary heritage. Herbert A. Simon was - and still is - one of the most influential founding father of the multidisciplinary fields of decision sciences: his contributions range across administrative behaviour and organisation theory, management science and operation research, behavioural decision theory, cognitive psychology, and artificial intelligence. Therefore, DECON 2019 focuses on theoretical, empirical and methodological investigations of socio-economic decisions made by several economic agents in a complex market economy, not entirely according to standard “rational” economic principles, but also in light of behavioural and cognitive factors, and bounded rationality. Such investigations can be methodologically focused on quantitative approaches, qualitative methods, or can take the form of insightful reviews and commentaries on best practices in social science research. DECON 2019 dedicates itself to the interdisciplinary study of decision-making in the recognition that important decision-making takes place in a range of critical subject areas and research fields, including Economics, Finance, Information Systems, Psychology, Small and International Business, Management, Operations, and Production. We are particularly interested in analytics as an emerging synthesis of sophisticated methodology and large data systems used to guide economic decision-making in an increasingly complex business environment. TOPICS The recent negative economic and financial events, which have hit the world economies in the last decade, call for new and innovative studies mainly in economics, business and finance, involving different research fields such as Economics, Psychology, or strictly related social sciences, leading source for original research on the interplay of those fields within Artificial Intelligence. The organisers and chairs of DECON strongly believe that this is a moral duty, as well as a scientific duty, for a prudent and wise economist aware of the complexity of the real world in which he/she lives and works in the Third Millennium. Indeed, the combination of economics and decision sciences is a field of studies which proves to be useful and, thus, should be fostered to academicians and practitioners interested in the application of quantitative and behavioural methods to the problems of society. The special session focuses on interdisciplinary approaches to the study of economic analysis and policies within several major areas. Hence, papers are invited for the following areas of special interest which include but are not limited to: Experimental Research in Economics; Behavioural Game Theory; Cognitive Economics; Interrelations of Economics and Psychology with AI; Complexity of Behavioural Decision Processes; Microfoundations and Micro-Macro Relationships; Organisational Decision-Making; Computation and Computability in Economics; Decision Theory and the Economics of Uncertainty; Algorithmic Social Sciences Research; Decision Support Systems and Business Decisions; Business Intelligence Analytics and Decision-Making; Big Data, Data-Mining and Robotics; Managerial Decision-Making; Complex Business Environments; Information Technology and Operational Decision Sciences.

[Deadline Extension] Special Issue "The Second International Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Data Mining"
by Massimo CAFARO 22 Dec '18

22 Dec '18

Special Issue "The Second International Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Data Mining" A special issue of Algorithms (ISSN 1999-4893). Deadline for manuscript submissions: extended to January 30, 2019 http://www.mdpi.com/journal/algorithms/special_issues/Parallel_Distributed_… Special Issue Information Dear Colleagues, This Special Issue is devoted to the increasing interest in the design and implementation of parallel and distributed data mining algorithms. The Workshop on Parallel and Distributed Data Mining (WPDM 2018) is an international forum that brings together researchers and practitioners, working on different high-performance aspects of data mining algorithms, enabling novel applications. Indeed, datasets grow so rapidly that, every day, exabytes of data are being generated, and, in order to extract and infer useful knowledge, parallel processing techniques are required to cope with this huge volume of data: Traditional sequential software is not viable to cope with them. When the data are generated in different places (such as wireless sensor networks and/or Internet of things devices), they may be geographically spread out, and the data cannot be sent to a centralized site, thus, the need for distributed processing algorithms arises. Topics relevant to this Special Issue cover the scope of the WPDM 2018 Workshop (http://sara.unisalento.it/~cafaro/WPDM2018/): - Parallel data mining algorithms using MPI and/or OpenMP - Parallel data mining algorithms targeting GPUs and many-cores accelerators - Parallel data mining applications exploiting FPGA - Distributed data mining algorithms - Benchmarking and performance studies of high-performance data mining applications - Novel programming paradigms to support high-performance computing for data mining - Performance models for high-performance data mining applications and middleware - Programming models, tools, and environments for high-performance computing in data mining - Caching, streaming, pipelining, and other optimization techniques for data management in high-performance computing for data mining Extended versions of papers presented at WPDM 2018 are sought, but this call for papers is fully open to all those who wish to contribute by submitting a relevant research manuscript. Manuscript Submission Information Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All papers will be peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website. Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Algorithms is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI. Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 850 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions. Special Issue Editors Guest Editor Assoc.

CfP for VHPC ‘19: HPC Virtualization Paper Registration due January 25, 2019 - 14th Virtualization in High-Performance Cloud Computing Workshop@ISC
by Michael Alexander 20 Dec '18

20 Dec '18

==================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS 14th Workshop on Virtualization in High-Performance Cloud Computing (VHPC '19) held in conjunction with the International Supercomputing Conference - High Performance, June 16-20, 2019, Frankfurt, Germany. (Springer LNCS Proceedings) ==================================================================== Date: June 20, 2019 Workshop URL: http://vhpc.org Abstract Submission Deadline: January 25, 2019 Springer LNCS, rolling abstract submission Abstract/Paper Submission Link: https://edas.info/newPaper.php?c=25685 Call for Papers Containers and virtualization technologies constitute key enabling factors for flexible resource management in modern data centers, and particularly in cloud environments. Cloud providers need to manage complex infrastructures in a seamless fashion to support the highly dynamic and heterogeneous workloads and hosted applications customers deploy. Similarly, HPC environments have been increasingly adopting techniques that enable flexible management of vast computing and networking resources, close to marginal provisioning cost, which is unprecedented in the history of scientific and commercial computing. Various virtualization-containerization technologies contribute to the overall picture in different ways: machine virtualization, with its capability to enable consolidation of multiple underutilized servers with heterogeneous software and operating systems (OSes), and its capability to live-migrate a fully operating virtual machine (VM) with a very short downtime, enables novel and dynamic ways to manage physical servers; OS-level virtualization (i.e., containerization), with its capability to isolate multiple user-space environments and to allow for their coexistence within the same OS kernel, promises to provide many of the advantages of machine virtualization with high levels of responsiveness and performance; lastly, unikernels provide for many virtualization benefits with a minimized OS/library surface. I/O Virtualization in turn allows physical network interfaces to take traffic from multiple VMs or containers; network virtualization, with its capability to create logical network overlays that are independent of the underlying physical topology is furthermore enabling virtualization of HPC infrastructures. Publication Accepted papers will be published in a Springer LNCS proceedings volume. Topics of Interest The VHPC program committee solicits original, high-quality submissions related to virtualization across the entire software stack with a special focus on the intersection of HPC, containers-virtualization and the cloud. Major Topics: - HPC on Containers and VMs - Containerized applications with OS-level virtualization - Lightweight applications with Unikernels - HP-as-a-Service each major topic encompassing design/architecture, management, performance management, modeling and configuration/tooling: Design / Architecture: - Containers and OS-level virtualization (LXC, Docker, rkt, Singularity, Shifter, i.a.) - Hypervisor support for heterogeneous resources (GPUs, co-processors, FPGAs, etc.) - Hypervisor extensions to mitigate side-channel attacks ([micro-]architectural timing attacks, privilege escalation) - VM & Container trust and security models - Multi-environment coupling, system software supporting in-situ analysis with HPC simulation - Cloud reliability, fault-tolerance and high-availability - Energy-efficient and power-aware virtualization - Containers inside VMs with hypervisor isolation - Virtualization support for emerging memory technologies - Lightweight/specialized operating systems in conjunction with virtual machines - Hypervisor support for heterogeneous resources (GPUs, co-processors, FPGAs, etc.) - Novel unikernels and use cases for virtualized HPC environments - ARM-based hypervisors, ARM virtualization extensions Management: - Container and VM management for HPC and cloud environments - HPC services integration, services to support HPC - Service and on-demand scheduling & resource management - Dedicated workload management with VMs or containers - Workflow coupling with VMs and containers - Unikernel, lightweight VM application management - Environments and tools for operating containerized environments (batch, orchestration) - Novel models for non-HPC workload provisioning on HPC resources Performance Measurements and Modeling: - Performance improvements for or driven by unikernels - Optimizations of virtual machine monitor platforms and hypervisors - Scalability analysis of VMs and/or containers at large scale - Performance measurement, modeling and monitoring of virtualized/cloud workloads - Virtualization in supercomputing environments, HPC clusters, HPC in the cloud Configuration / Tooling: - Tool support for unikernels: configuration/build environments, debuggers, profilers - Job scheduling/control/policy and container placement in virtualized environments - Operating MPI in containers/VMs and Unikernels - Software defined networks and network virtualization - GPU virtualization operationalization The Workshop on Virtualization in High-Performance Cloud Computing (VHPC) aims to bring together researchers and industrial practitioners facing the challenges posed by virtualization in order to foster discussion, collaboration, mutual exchange of knowledge and experience, enabling research to ultimately provide novel solutions for virtualized computing systems of tomorrow.

CFP: 7th Int. Conf. on Future Internet of Things and Cloud (FiCloud 2019)
by FiCloud Conference 18 Dec '18

18 Dec '18

----------------------Call for Papers ------------------------------------------------ The 7th International Conference on Future Internet of Things and Cloud (FiCloud 2019) 26-28 August 2019, Istanbul, Turkey http://www.ficloud.org/2019/ Technical co-sponsorship: IEEE-CS TCI --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Internet of Things (IoT) vision is to provide a dynamic and global network infrastructure which is characterized by intelligent and self configuring capabilities. IoT is considered as an integral part of the future Internet. It is based on interoperable communication protocols in order to enable the interaction and integration of virtual as well as physical Things such as computers, smart devices, sensors, cars, refrigerators, food packages, medicines, etc. Things can be seamlessly integrated into the information network and interaction can be made through the provision of intelligent interfaces. In not so distant future, IoT will be forcing its way into every aspect of our lives and technologies including smart homes, smart cities, environment and nature, green energy, food, medicine, automotive, aerospace and aviation, telecommunication, and so on. IoT is generally characterized by real world and small Things, limited capacity, constrained devices and the consequential issues such as less reliability, security and privacy. Cloud computing on the other hand deals mainly with virtual world and has unlimited capabilities in terms of storage and processing power. Thus cloud and IoT are the main complementary aspects of the future Internet. IoT can benefit from the unlimited capabilities and resources of cloud computing. Similarly, cloud can benefit from IoT by extending its scope to deal with real world things in a more distributed and dynamic manner. The theme of this conference is to promote the state of the art in scientific and practical research of the IoT and cloud computing. It provides a forum for bringing together researchers and practitioners from academia, industry, and public sector in an effort to present their research work and share research and development ideas in the area of IoT and cloud computing. CONFERENCE TRACKS: - Cloud Models - SaaS, IaaS, PaaS - Security, Privacy and Trust - Software Systems, Models and Architectures - Mobile Cloud Services - Data and Knowledge Management - Context-awareness and Location-awareness - Software-defined Networking - Performance Evaluation and Modelling - Networking and Communication Protocols - IoT Services and Applications - Smart Environment - Enterprise and Business Models - Energy Efficiency - Federation and Virtualization - Fog and Edge Computing - Industry Track - General Track Paper submission and Publication: Authors are requested to submit papers reporting original research results and experience. The page limit for full papers is 8 pages and for short papers is 6 pages. Papers should be prepared using IEEE two-column template. See instructions on the conference website ( http://www.ficloud.org/2019/). All papers accepted for this conference are planned to be published in the conference proceedings by the IEEE Computer Society Conference Publishing Service (CPS). The proceedings will be submitted to the IEEE-Xplore and the IEEE Computer Society (CSDL) digital libraries. The proceedings are also submitted for indexing through IEE INSPEC, EI (Compendex), Thomson ISI, and other indexing services.
