International Conference on ENTERprise Information Systems Vilamoura, Algarve, Portugal, 7-9 October 2015 http://centeris.scika.org AIS Affiliated Conference ======================================================================================== WORKSHOP OBJECTIVE The social business is based on technology trends (powerful mobile devices, broadband Internet, and low-cost data storage), work (culture, globalization) and society (propensity for sharing). This new way of doing business will enable a paradigm shift, "comes out of the hierarchy and works on the net", which will surely be the "essence of the fast enterprises and the next generation." Nowadays, according to the McKinsey Global Institute, in its report "The social economy: Unlocking value and productivity through social technologies", there are over 1.5 billion users of social networks, 80% is the proportion of total users that interact with social networks regularly, 70% is the proportion of companies using social technologies, and it is used about 28 hours a week to write emails, search for information and perform internal collaboration. Strategies of platform and application integration need to be established and social technology tools need to be integrated, while a common culture of collaborative communication has to be maintained. Questions of user adoption, communication facilitation and measurable business value are arising. Benefits of information sharing, interactive knowledge exchange and usability extension seem to be apparent, whereas concerns of technical operationalization, security control and practicability of social technology features are still persistent. This workshop encourages studies on technical, social and theoretical issues in ICT trends for enterprises that will interest both practitioners and researchers. WORKSHOP TOPICS AND AREAS OF INTEREST (not limited to) - Social Tools - Web 2.0 and Social Networking - Platform Integration and Management - Global Online Communities - Interactive Applications - Operational Criteria and System Integration - Real-time Video Collaboration, Knowledge Management and Activity Streaming - Metrics and Methods - Usability, Content and Security - Ethical issues - Success factors for social workplace adoption - Key drivers for leveraging social value generation and business transformation - Visions for future work and process organization SUBMISSIONS We welcome full research papers, short papers, posters and practitioner papers on the workshop theme.

International Conference on ENTERprise Information Systems Vilamoura, Algarve, Portugal, 7-9 October 2015 http://centeris.scika.org AIS Affiliated Conference ======================================================================================== WORKSHOP OBJECTIVE According to the European Commission report "A Roadmap for Advanced Cloud Technologies H2020 under", the environment of IST (market research, industry, education, training, etc.) undergoes constant changes. Thus, it is necessary to identify the major changes that can be expected in the next 5-10 years and may, or will, affect the environment of IST. It is expected, for example, that in 2015 billions of people connected by nearly a trillion devices, the concept BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) is practically general, as well as Cloud Computing. Additionally, mobile malware has been around for a while, but it is only in the last few years that it is been used as a tool in the hands of cybercriminals. The growth of mobile malware is only going to continue as people increasingly conduct business and sensitive transactions via mobile devices and it is a result of a number of different factors. First, the huge numbers of smartphones being used; second, the variety of ?interesting? data now stored on these devices, such as: contacts, photographs, SMS messages, banking credentials and social networking logins; and finally, the growing use of mobile devices in business and the lack of awareness from organizations around mobile threats. There are a number of major trends in the mobile space which will change the way software providers deliver applications and services. One of these trends is the move toward Mobile Websites instead of apps, hence Mobile Web Portals have a great impact. This progress it is important because literature in information systems rarely addresses the particulars of Mobile Web Portals from pure ICT view. This workshop encourages studies on technical, social and theoretical issues in mobile computing that will interest both practitioners and researchers. WORKSHOP TOPICS AND AREAS OF INTEREST (not limited to) - Web Services and Web Engineering - Authentication and Access Control - Web Security and Privacy - Databases and Datawarehouses - Portal strategies - Accessibility issues and Technology - Usability and Ergonomics - Web Geographical Information Systems - Social and Legal Issues - Mobile Navigation and Assistance - Context Detection - Mobile Social Network Interaction - Mobile learning - Mobile commerce - Mobile cloud SUBMISSIONS We welcome full research papers, short papers, posters and practitioner papers on the workshop theme.

S?o Paulo, Brazil* ================= *Conference Website:* http://purl.org/dcevents/dc-2015 *Call for Participation:* http://purl.org/dcevents/dc-2015/cfp *Track Policies:* http://dcevents.dublincore.org/index.php/IntConf/dc-2015/schedConf/trackPolicies ================= *Abstract:* The need for structured metadata to support ubiquitous access across the Web to the treasure troves of resources spanning cultures, in science, and in the digital humanities is now common knowledge among information systems designers and implementers. Structured metadata expressed through languages of description make it possible for us to 'speak' about the contents of our treasure troves. But, like all human languages, our languages of description both enable and isolate. The push to break out of the isolation of the metadata silos in which professionals inevitably design, implement and manage metadata in order to discover the intersections of our treasure troves drives much of today's discourse and emerging practice in metadata. The emergence of massively integrated Web presences such as Europeana and the Digital Public Library of America (DPLA) along with the reshaping of public access globally through mechanisms such as Linked Data and schema.org drive our conversations, our excitement, and our fears. *IMPORTANT DATES:* *Technical Program Deadlines:* *Peer-Reviewed Papers, Project Reports & Posters* --*Submission Deadline:* 28 March 2015 --*Author Notification:* 23 June 2015 --*Final Copy:* 28 July 2015 *Professional Program Deadlines * *Special & Panel Sessions* --*Proposal Deadline:* 28 March 2015 --*Author Notification: *25 April 2015 *Best Practice Posters & Demonstrations* --*Submission Deadline:* 14 July 2015 --*Author Notification:* Ongoing ================= *Join us in S?o Paulo, Brazil* Each of the past 20 years, the metadata community has gathered for DCMI's conference and annual meeting. The work agenda of the DCMI community is broad and inclusive of all aspects of innovation in metadata design, implementation and best practices. While the work of the Initiative progresses throughout the year, the annual meeting and conference provide the opportunity for DCMI "citizens" as well as newcomers, students, apprentices, and early career professionals to gather face-to-face to share experiences and knowledge. In addition, the gathering provides public- and private-sector initiatives beyond DCMI that are doing significant metadata work to come together to compare notes and cast a broader light into their particular metadata work silos. Through such a gathering of the metadata communities, DCMI advances its "first goal" of promoting metadata interoperability and harmonization. This year, the annual meeting and conference are being hosted by the Universidade Estadual Paulista--S?o Paulo State University (UNESP) and held in S?o Paulo, Brazil. ================= *CONFERENCE ORGANIZERS:* --Universidade Estadual Paulista--S?o Paulo State University (UNESP) --Dublin Core Metadata Initiative (DCMI) ================= *CONFERENCE CHAIRS:* --Pl?cida Santos, Professor Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP), Brazil --Silvana Borsetti Gregorio Vidotti, Professor Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP), Brazil --Fl?via Maria Bastos, CGB Coordinator General Coordination of Libraries Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP), Brazil --Mariana Curado Malta CEISE/ISCAP - Polytechnic of Oporto, Portugal Algoritmi Center - University of Minho, Portugal -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

VocBench is an open source project, developed in the context of a collaboration between the Food and Agricultural Organization of the UN (FAO) and the University of Rome Tor Vergata. VocBench is currently used for the maintenance of AGROVOC, EUROVOC, GEMET, the thesaurus of the Italian Senate, the Unified Astronomy Thesaurus of Harvard University, as well as other thesauri. VocBench has a strong focus on collaboration, supported by workflow management for content validation and publication. Dedicated user roles provide a clean separation of competencies, addressing different specificities ranging from management aspects to vertical competencies in content editing, such as conceptualization versus terminology editing. Extensive support for scheme management allows editors to fully exploit the possibilities of the SKOS model, as well as to fulfill its integrity constraints. VocBench has been open source software since version 2 -- open to a large community of users and institutions supporting its development with their feedback and ideas. During the webinar, Dr. Caracciolo and Dr. Stellato will demonstrate the main features of VocBench from the point of view of users and system administrators, and explain in what way you may join the project. *ABOUT THE PRESENTERS:* *Caterina Caracciolo*, PhD, has served as an Information Specialist at the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) since 2006.
