In this workshop, we will analyze these changes to the informational state and discuss how we can address them through three themes: *pedagogy for information ethics and policy*, *engagement with policymakers*, and *information ethics and policy across information science*. Workshop participants are encouraged to participate in a variety of ways and will leave the workshop with tangible products that can be used in research and teaching. *Contributions*: For the workshop, we seek several different types of contributions: - Panel: A panel should incorporate two of the themes (see below, under workshop organization) and each panel is encouraged to include at least one person outside academia. Panels should be explicit about which themes are addressed and include a brief biography of each contributor. - Paper: A paper should address one of the themes (see below) in detail, tying it back to the broader discussion of the changed information state. Papers should be 3500-5000 words. - Speaker: We seek volunteers to synthesize these themes (see below) and address potential big-picture implications of these trends. Those interested in being a featured speaker should submit a c.v. and a brief essay (under 5000 words) on these themes. *The deadline for all contributions is 8/18*. Contributions should be emailed to Shannon Oltmann at shannon.oltmann at uky.edu. Contact Shannon Oltmann with any questions. Read the full workshop proposal here . -- *?A.J.

About the Workshop Data are growing at an exponential rate nowadays. In order to take advantage of them, it is important for businesses and organizations to be able to make sense out of them by determining the trends, patterns and underlying insights of the gathered data. Hence problems can be detected early before they result in actual damage. Some examples of data analytics cover tasks of finding suspicious records in accounts payable, evaluating activities of business processes, modeling customers? behavioral patterns and deriving the best strategies in business decision etc. Such complex tasks go beyond simple statistics. Advanced tools such as data mining, data modeling, data visualization, and information analysis etc. have been extensively researched recently. The objective of this workshop is to provide an interactive platform for academic researchers and industrial practitioners to exchange ideas, disseminate the latest development in data analytics and data visualization. Conceptual models, tools, and current issues are encouraged to be discussed. The workshop welcomes paper submission includes but not limited to the following areas: Data retrieval and management Innovative methods for understanding and interacting with data Innovative methods for data analysis, presentation and visualization Innovative methods for solving current data problems New statistics techniques for improving current solutions Advanced software system and algorithms for data visualization Domain specific data analytics and data visualization Social network analytics and visualization Forensic analytics and visualization Business process analytics and visualization Industry solutions and/or experiences Case studies Submissions Submissions should provide original and unpublished research results or ongoing research with simulations. The papers should be between 6 to 8 pages total in length in the IEEE format. * All the accepted papers will appear in the proceedings published by IEEE and fully indexed by IEEE Xplore.

Message-ID: Greetings, I'm writing to you, in my capacity as Chair of the ASIST 80th Anniversary Advisory Group. This group is advising Wiley (the JASIST publisher) on their project to identify key and high impact papers in JASIST. For their part Wiley conducted a bibliometric study of highly cited papers, ranked by decade. As part of this initiative the 80thAG is soliciting nominations of JASIST papers that have been central to your own work, or to that of your SIG. Wiley realizes that articles can be quite useful without attracting citations, so we are reaching out to SIG members! In early September, all ASIST members will have a chance to vote on the most significant JASIST paper for each decade. The papers span the years 1956-2017. The outcome of this initiative will be a Wiley-hosted website that features access to select papers. ASIST members will be able to add comments and images. This website will launch during the upcoming annual meeting in Washington, DC. Please send your paper nominations (in the form of a citation) by August 15th to klabarre [at] illinois.edu -- Kathryn La Barre Director at Large, Association for Information Science and Technology Chair ASIST Anniversary Advisory Group Associate Professor, School of Information Sciences, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign -- Kathryn La Barre -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
