ACM TIST Special Issue on Social Web Mining
2011-10-31 04:24:00
Call for Papers  ACM Transactions on Intelligent Systems and Technology (ACM TIST)  Special Issue on Social Web Mining Social network platforms (e.g., Facebook, Google+, Twitter) have been drawing increasing attention from everyday users worldwide to research communities and industries. For instance, it is reported that there are more than 750 million active Facebook users, of which 50% log on in any given day. The success of the social network platform provides a wealth of information, which brings great opportunities for e-Commerce, policy making, social media recommendations, and much more. However, it can be challenging to model the social networks and make predictions, given this prosperity of social networks leading to information overload. Social web mining aims at modeling social interactions (e.g., posting and messaging in Facebook) and relationships (e.g., friendship in Facebook, Followed / Foll...
 
Exploratory Analysis in Dynamic Social Networks: theoretical and practical applications
2011-10-30 05:58:00
CALL FOR CHAPTERS "Exploratory Analysis in Dynamic Social Networks: theoretical and practical applications" Submission Deadline: January 31, 2012 A book edited by Dr. Carlos Andre Reis Pinheiro, Analytics Lab, Oi Telecom, Brazil and Dr. Markus Helfert, School of Computing, Dublin City University, Ireland To be published by iConcept Press: http://www.iconceptpress.com. Introduction Interactions within social networks have been subject of recent studies. As insights into these interactions offer great opportunities, many practical applications have been proposed. Recent approaches focus on using social network analysis' methodology to study different aspects of societies, communities, knowledge networks and competitive markets, such as Social Medias through the Internet and Telecommunications environments. By understanding social structures and its interactions it is possible to understand how individuals and consumers relate to each other allowing to subsequently forecasts behavio...

Call for Papers on “Social Media“,Special Issue Journal “Künstliche Intelligenz KI” KI – Künstliche Intelligenz (Artificial Intelligence) http://www.kuenstliche-intelligenz.de/ A Springer publication, ISSN 0933-1875 (Print)1610-1987 (Online) Call for Papers Social Media has led to radical paradigm shifts in the ways we communicate, collaborate, consume, and create information. Technology allows virtually anyone to disseminate information to a global audience almost instantaneously. Information published by peers in the form of Tweets, blog posts, or Web documents through online social networking services has proliferated on an unprecedented scale, contributing to an exponentially growing data deluge. A new level of connectedness among peers adds new ways for the consumption of (traditional) media. We are witnessing new forms of collaboration, including the phenomenon of an emergent ‘collective intelligence’. This intelligence of crowds can be harnessed in...
 
University of Siegen: Assistent Professorships (W1) in Informal Learning
2011-10-30 05:57:00
The University of Siegen is developping a new research focus by investigating into practices of informal learning. To foster this line of research, three positions on the level of an assistant professor are available: http://www.uni-siegen.de/uni/stellen/prof/398685.html?lang=de One of these positions will be in the Department of Information Systems (IS). This position should specifically look into informal learning at the work place and opportunities to design IT tools in support of leaning practices. A relevant field of investigation could be, for instance, informal learning within IT or design projects. We look for candidates with a background in areas such as Computer Supported Cooperative Learning (CSCL), Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW), Knowledge Management (KM) or Work Place Studies. While the ability to teach in German langueges would be appreciated, it is not required. For further information with regard to the IS position please contact: Dr. Markus Rohde, Instit...

Identification of Compentences in Self-regulated Learning Processes
2011-10-20 06:35:00
Yesterday, I gave a very short presentation at the track of the Professional Training Facts 2011, in Stuttgart, Germany. My colleagues Diana, Manuel and Manuel helped me to make it a successful outlet of ROLE activities. We demonstrated the ROLE widget store and the ROLE showcase platform as well the use of ROLE widgets in the FESTO Academy personalized learning management system (PLMS). Self-regulated Competence Management in Responsive Open Learning Environments Self-regulated and self-paced learning and thus competence management are becoming of more importance for professional careers and learning histories, e.g. in keeping the employability of an aging workforce. These new forms of learning fit more in our modern life-styles where work-life balance and career development is an integral part of our personalities. Life-long learners need not only an e-portfolio-based management of competences but also reliable recommendations and responses for future learning activities, learn...
 
Virtual Campfire - XMPP Inter-widget Communication for Distributed Mobile Web Interfaces - UMIC Day 2011 Poster
2011-10-13 05:20:00
XMPP Inter-widget Communication for Distributed Mobile Web Interfaces View more documents from Ralf Klamma Virtual Campfire: Distributed Mobile/Web Interfaces Based on XMPP Inter-widget Communication Informatik 5 and LFG Städtebaugeschichte (SBG) In the post-desktop era, many devices (laptops, smartphones, tablet PCs) have proliferated and have become undividable part of our digital lives. However, each device comes with different input methods (multi-touch, mouse, and voice), sensors (accelerometer, compass, GPS) and display sizes. Moreover, they are mostly used for separate tasks, e.g. phones for calling, tablets for reading and web browsing, and laptops for text editing. It may be convenient to use one of the devices for one type of application, while the device may be limited to run the other types of applications.  Why shouldn’t we take advantage of all of our personal computing devices and to act as one logical device? In this Virtual Campfire demo, we pres...
