Final Call for Workshops - ICDE 2014 (www.ieee-icde2014.org)

The ICDE 2014 Conference (Chicago, USA, March 31-April 4, 2014) invites
submissions for workshop proposals on topics related to data engineering.
The ICDE 2014 workshops will be co-located with the main conference and the
duration of each workshop is either half a day or one day. Proposals for
workshops should be submitted (in pdf format) to all the three Workshops
chairs by July 15, 2013. Half-day and one-day workshops will take place on
March 31 or April 4th.

The proceedings of the workshops will be published jointly with the
conference proceedings.

Workshops will benefit from the registration process of ICDE 2014. Each
workshop will be charged a fixed amount per workshop participant for hotel
costs, equipment rental, coffee breaks, etc. Beyond this, if the organizers
of a workshop choose to charge additional fees to cover meals, etc., they
must inform the General Chairs of their intent and must manage the process
on their own.

Each workshop proposal must contain all pertinent information, including
the following:
- workshop title
- short description of the topic and format of the workshop
- explanation of why the proposed workshop is a good match with ICDE 2014
- names and contact information of the workshop organizer(s)
- names of members of the program committee (at least 50% must be known and
confirmed at the time of the proposal)
- special considerations regarding proceedings, if any
- proposal for important dates (paper submission deadline, notification
deadline, etc.)
- expected number of participants
- in case of previous instances of the workshop, the historical numbers of
participants
- in case of previous instances of the workshop, the historical submission
and acceptance counts
- preferred workshop duration and date(s)

The decision about acceptance/rejection of workshop proposals will be made
by the Workshops Chairs in consultation with the General and Research
Program Chairs, taking into account several factors including venue
capacity.

Evaluation criteria include overall quality and the fit with respect to the
expected ICDE 2014 program. Note that proposals are especially encouraged
on emerging topics that are relevant to data engineering and are not
already covered by the main conference. Notification will be given by
August 17th, 2013.

The organizers of successful workshops will be responsible for their own
review process and publicity (e.g., website). They are required to
cooperate closely with the Workshops Chairs and the ICDE 2014 local
organizers to finalize all details mentioned above, provide input for
publicity to the ICDE 2014 organizers, etc. In particular, local organizers
may require that all workshops adhere to a specific general timetable to
facilitate catering. Workshop organizers must inform the Workshop Chairs of
the numbers of submissions and acceptances as these numbers become
available. Workshops with fewer than 20 expected registrants may be
canceled at the discretion of the conference organizers. Only accepted
workshops are official ICDE workshops and enjoy the support mentioned above.


*Please submit your proposal to our email account: icde14workshop@gmail.com.

The Fifth International Conference on Social Informatics (SocInfo2013) is an interdisciplinary venue for researchers from informatics and the social & management sciences to come together to share ideas and opinions, and to present original research work. The goal is to create an opportunity for the dissemination of knowledge between the two communities, as well as to enable mutual critical discussion of current research.

The conference solicits original research and experience-based case study papers, as well as proposals for demonstrations. It welcomes interdisciplinary papers on methods from the social sciences in the study of information systems, applying information technology in the study of social phenomena, or applying social concepts in the design of information systems.

Detailed research topics of interest for this conference include, but are not limited to:

- Computational models of social phenomena and social simulation
- Social networks and communities: discovery, evolution, analysis, and applications
- Mining social big data
- Social behavior modeling
- Social Influence and diffusion models of social influence
- Web mining and its social interpretations
- Security, privacy, trust, reputation, and incentive issues
- Credibility of online content
- Opinion mining and social media analytics
- Design and analysis of Web2.0 applications (social or collaborative Web applications)
- Algorithms and protocols inspired by human societies
- Mechanisms for providing fairness in information systems
- Social choice mechanisms in the e-society
- Recommendation systems
- Social applications of the semantic Web
- Social system design and architectures
- Virtual communities (e.g., open-source, multiplayer gaming, etc.)
- Impact of technology on socio-economic, security, defense aspects
- Visualization of dynamic social networks
- Social interactions and collaboration
- Socio-economic systems and applications
- Social informatics theory
- Intelligence and social cognition
- Temporal characteristics of social media and social interactions
- Real-time analysis and visualization of social phenomena
- Evaluating sociability of applications

Submissions should be original and should be submitted in English in pdf format via the submission system: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=socinfo2013
They should be formatted according to Springer LNCS format. The length of the research papers should not exceed 14 pages, while the demonstration submissions should be no longer than 6 pages.
As in the previous years, the accepted papers (research and demonstration) will appear in Lecture Note Series in Computer Science by Springer. Some of the research paper submissions can be accepted as short papers based on the decision of the Program Committee. More details on the conference and the submission guidelines can be found at the conference website.

Transforming Assessment Webinar: GMT 10PM, 6 August 2013
"The Online Revolution: Education for Everyone - MOOCs"

In 2011, Stanford University offered three online courses, which anyone in the world could enroll in and take for free. Together, these three courses had enrollments of around 350,000 students, making this one of the largest experiments in online education ever performed. Since the beginning of 2012, we have transitioned this effort into a new venture, Coursera, a social entrepreneurship company whose mission is to make high-quality education accessible to everyone by allowing the best universities to offer courses to everyone around the world, for free. Coursera classes provide a real course experience to students, including video content, interactive exercises with meaningful feedback, using both auto-grading and peer-grading, and a rich peer-to-peer interaction around the course materials. Currently, Coursera has 62 university partners, and over 2.8 million students enrolled in its over 200 courses. These courses span a range of topics including computer science, business,
  medicine, science, humanities, social sciences, and more. In this talk, I'll report on this far-reaching experiment in education, and why we believe this model can provide both an improved classroom experience for our on-campus students, via a flipped classroom model, as well as a meaningful learning experience for the millions of students around the world who would otherwise never have access to education of this quality.
Presenter: Andrew Ng (Stanford University, USA & founder Coursera)
Hosted by: Professor Geoffrey Crisp (RMIT University, Australia) and Dr Mathew Hillier (Teaching and Educational Development Institute, University of Queensland, Australia).
