Environmental computing applications - state of the art ECA 2017 ICCS 2017 workshop Jun 12, 2016 - Jun 14, 2017 Zurich, Switzerland http://envcomp.eu/ICCS17/ There are several domain- or problem-specific areas – such as meteorology or seismic analysis – that use multi-model and multi-data approaches to analyse environmental phenomena and their impact. However, a more general approach to produce actionable knowledge from different environmental data sources is needed. The workshop is intended to bring together practitioners, policymakers, environmental modelling experts to present the latest developments in Environmental Computing. The submitted papers can be case studies or present new approaches to environmental computing systems, including (but not limited to) multi-model and multi-data frameworks (including metadata approaches), scalability of the systems, socioeconomic impact of environmental computing, data and model semantics and visualisation. The topics of interest include: * Case studies * Environmental modelling techniques (and optimisation of them) * Multi-model systems * Civil protection (and related engineering challenges) * Scalability of environmental HPC and Big Data applications * Risk assessment and management * Interdisciplinary collaboration * Dynamic model coupling approaches * Interdisciplinary metadata frameworks * Visualisation Submission Contributions should be submitted via the ICCS 2017 easychair ( https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=iccs2017 - select “Environmental Computing Applications – State of the Art” in the first menu).

The conference also invites a small number of high quality tutorials and nationally recognized keynote speakers. The conference has grown out of two related meetings: SBP and BRiMS, which were co-located in previous years. Social computing harnesses the power of computational methods to study social behavior, such as during team collaboration. Cultural behavioral modeling refers to representing behavior and culture in the abstract, and is a convenient and powerful way to conduct virtual experiments and scenario analysis. Both social computing and cultural behavioral modeling are techniques designed to achieve a better understanding of complex behaviors, patterns, and associated outcomes of interest. Moreover, these approaches are inherently interdisciplinary; subsystems and system components exist at multiple levels of analysis (i.e., “cells to societies”) and across multiple disciplines, from engineering and the computational sciences to the social and health sciences. The SBP-BRiMS conference invites modeling and simulation papers from academics, research scientists, technical communities and defense researchers across traditional disciplines to share ideas, discuss research results, identify capability gaps, highlight promising technologies, and showcase the state-of-the-art in applications in the areas of cultural behavioral modeling, prediction, and social computing. Please see the SBP-BRiMS17 website for more details. Keynotes and tutorials delivered in the previous SBP and BRiMS meetings are available through the websites http://sbp-brims.org and http://cc.ist.psu.edu/BRIMS2015/ . CALL FOR PAPERS: Submissions are solicited on research issues, theories, and applications. Topics of interests include the following: Advances in Sociocultural & Behavioral Processes * Group interaction and collaboration * Group formation and evolution * Group representation and profiling * Collective action and governance * Cultural patterns & representation * Social conventions, social contexts and processes * Influence process and recognition * Public opinion representation, identification and modeling * Information diffusion * Psycho-cultural situation awareness Behavior Modeling * Intelligent agents and avatars/adversarial modeling * Cognitive robotics and human-robot interaction * Models of reasoning and decision making * Model validation & comparison * Socio-cultural M&S: team/group/crowd/behavior * Physical models of human movement * Performance assessment & skill monitoring/tracking * Performance prediction/enhancement/optimization * Intelligent tutoring systems * Knowledge acquisition/engineering * Human behavior issues in model federations Methodological Challenges * Mathematical foundations * Verification and validation * Sensitivity analysis * Matching technique or method to research questions * Metrics and evaluation * Methodological innovation * Model federation and integration * Evolutionary computing * Optimization Information, Systems, & Network Science * Data mining on social media platforms * Diffusion and other dynamic processes over networks * Inference of network topologies and changes over time * Analysis of link formations and link types * Detection of communities and other types of structures in networks * Analysis of high-dimensional networks * Analytics for social and human dynamics Military & Intelligence Applications * Evaluation, modeling and simulation * Group formation and evolution in the political context * Technology and flash crowds * Networks and political influence * Group representation and profiling * Reasoning about terrorist group behaviors and policies towards them Applications for Health and Well-being * Social network analysis to understand health behavior * Modeling of health policy and decision making * Modeling of behavioral aspects of infectious disease spread * Intervention design and modeling for behavioral health Other Applications * Economic applications of behavioral and social prediction * Viral marketing * Reasoning about development aid through social modeling * Reasoning about global educational efforts through cognitive simulation FORMAT AND SUBMISSION: The conference solicits three categories of papers: Regular papers (max. 10 pages) All topics and authors (academic, government, industry) welcome Published in a Springer volume and online.

Additional details will be posted on the conference website. FUNDING PANEL & CROSS-FERTILIZATION ROUNDTABLES: Previous SBP-BRiMS conferences have included a Cross-fertilization Roundtable session or a Funding Panel. The purpose of the cross- fertilization roundtables is to help participants become better acquainted with people outside of their discipline and with whom they might consider partnering on future SBP-BRiMS-related research collaborations. The Funding Panel provides an opportunity for conference participants to interact with program managers from various federal funding agencies. Participants for the previous funding panels have included representatives from federal agencies, such as the NSF, NIH, DoD, ONR, AFOSR, USDA, etc. BEST PAPER AWARDS: SBP-BRiMS17 will feature a Best Paper Award and a Best Student Paper Award.

Environmental Computing workshop Co-located with ISGC 2017 March 6, 2017, Academia Sinica, Taipei, Taiwan Abstract submission deadline 25th January 2017 http://envcomp.eu/ISGC17 There are several domain- or problem-specific areas – such as meteorology, hydrology, agronomy or disaster risk management and response – that use multi-model and multi-data approaches to analyse environmental phenomena and their impact. However, a more general approach to produce actionable knowledge from different environmental data sources is needed. The topic is of acute interest due to societal challenges and technical developments that require developing approaches to generalise, productise and mature current state-of-the-art environmental modelling solutions for managing disasters and disaster risks. The workshop will bring together together practitioners, policymakers, environmental modelling experts to present the latest developments in Environmental Computing. Paper submissions by groups working on these or related fields are encouraged in order to inspire communication across different specialties. The topics of interest include: * Case studies * Environmental modelling techniques (and optimisation of them) * Multi-model systems * Civil protection (and related engineering challenges) * Scalability of environmental HPC and Big Data applications * Risk assessment and management * Interdisciplinary collaboration * Dynamic model coupling approaches * Interdisciplinary metadata frameworks * Visualisation Paper submission One page abstracts (less than 500 words) should be submitted by January 25th 2017 via: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=isgc2017envcomp The results of the review process will be communicated to authors by 7th February 2017.
