by Oghenemaro Anuyah 05 Jan '20

05 Jan '20

============================ Call for Papers - ACM UMAP 2020 28th ACM International Conference on User Modeling, Adaptation and Personalization Theme: "Responsible Personalization" Genoa (Italy) July 14-17, 2020 Website: https://www.um.org/umap2020/ ============================ Abstracts due: January 31, 2020 (mandatory) Papers due: February 7, 2020 ============================ BACKGROUND AND SCOPE: ============================ ACM UMAP – User Modeling, Adaptation and Personalization – is the premier international conference for researchers and practitioners working on systems that adapt to individual users or to groups of users, and that collect, represent, and model user information. ACM UMAP is sponsored by ACM SIGCHI and SIGWEB, and organized with User Modeling Inc. as the core Steering Committee, extended with past years’ chairs. The proceedings are published by ACM and will be part of the ACM Digital Library. ACM UMAP covers a wide variety of research areas where personalization and adaptation may be applied. This includes a number of domains in which researchers are engendering significant innovations based on advances in user modeling and adaptation, recommender systems, adaptive educational systems, intelligent user interfaces, e-commerce, advertising, digital humanities, social networks, personalized health, entertainment, and many more. We welcome submissions related to user modeling, personalization and adaptation in any area; the conference web site provides a detailed (but not proscriptive) list of topics and sub-topics of importance to the conference. As the theme for UMAP 2020 is “Responsible Personalization,” submissions in all areas that emphasize ethical dimensions of personalized systems are welcome. CONFERENCE TOPICS: ============================ For details, see the conference website (https://www.um.org/umap2020/) * Personalized Recommender Systems * Adaptive Hypermedia and the Semantic Web * Intelligent User Interfaces * Personalized Social Web * Technology-Enhanced Adaptive Learning * Privacy, Fairness, and Transparency * Personalized Health * User Modeling and Personalization Applications * Theory, Opinion, Reflection SUBMISSION AND REVIEW PROCESS ============================ Papers will be submitted through EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=acmumap2020 Long (8 pages + references) and Short (4 pages + references) papers in ACM style. Original research papers addressing the theory and/or practice of UMAP, and papers showcasing innovative use of UMAP and exploring the benefits and challenges of applying UMAP technology in real-life applications and contexts are welcome. Long papers should present original reports of substantive new research techniques, findings, and applications of UMAP. They should place the work within the field and clearly indicate its innovative aspects. Research procedures and technical methods should be presented in sufficient detail to ensure scrutiny and reproducibility. Results should be clearly communicated and implications of the contributions/findings for UMAP and beyond should be explicitly discussed. Short papers should present original and highly promising research or applications. Merit will be assessed in terms of originality and importance rather than maturity, extensive technical validation, and user studies. Separation of long and short papers will be strictly enforced so papers will not compete across categories, but only within each category. Papers that receive high scores and are considered promising by reviewers, but didn’t make the acceptance cut may be revised and resubmitted as posters. Papers must be formatted using the ACM SIG Standard (SIGCONF) proceedings template: https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template. All accepted papers will be published by ACM and will be available via the ACM Digital Library. To be included in the Proceedings, at least one author of each accepted paper must register for the conference and present the paper there. Student registration fee is allowed to students who present a student paper.

The Doctoral Consortium offers nice opportunities for PhD students. Firstly, the feedback received during the Doctoral Consortium will really benefit students who have defined their topic, research plan and have obtained early results, but who still have room for improving their longer-term plan. Secondly, students at all stages of their doctoral project can meet the welcoming RCIS community and widen their network of contacts. The Doctoral Consortium has the following objectives: · Provide a platform for students to present their work and to meet other peers and be familiar with different research topics and methods. · Provide feedback on students' current research and guidance on future research directions. · Promote the development of a supportive community of scholars and a spirit of collaborative research and networking. · Contribute to the conference goals through interaction with other researchers. Interested PhD students are invited to submit papers, in agreement with their supervisors, addressing the instructions that are provided on the online call: http://www.cs.ucy.ac.cy/~george/lm/lm.php?tk=YWlyLUwJCQlhaXItTEBsaXN0c2Vydi… .

We invite two types of submissions: · Posters are intended to convey a research result and are not advertisements for commercial software packages. While posters need not describe completed work, they should report on research for which at least some preliminary results are available. · Demonstrations should directly and actively involve the exhibition and display of tools/prototypes and associated materials that illustrate research work in progress and serve as ground for discussion of research ideas. Posters and demonstrations proposals must be submitted as a single PDF file with no more than 6 pages in Springer LNCS/LNBIP format (http://www.cs.ucy.ac.cy/~george/lm/lm.php?tk=YWlyLUwJCQlhaXItTEBsaXN0c2Vydi… ) including references and appendices.

Accessible readings on telecom regulation
by Rich Ling 03 Jan '20

03 Jan '20

Dear all, I am looking for an accessible article or reading on telecommunication regulation for my class on mobile communication. I have been using the ITU regulation handbook, but it is a bit too dry. I am looking for something that helps to underscore how regulation (at least in theory) flattens the playing field, protects the interests of consumers, spurs innovation and provides a space for enterprise. I know that this is an impossible balancing act, but if there is a reading that points to these issues, I would be grateful to know about it. Thanks -- Rich Ling
