CfP2: Datafication and cultural heritage. ECSCW 2020, deadline April 3.
by Karin Hansson 25 Mar '20

25 Mar '20

Second call for proposals Datafication and cultural heritage - provocations, threats, and design opportunities A workshop at ECSCW 2020, June 14, in Siegen, Germany. Due to the current situation we will accept remote presentations. Increasing digitization and the emergence of new data sharing practices are likely to change how our understanding of history is negotiated. Archiving practices are not only fundamental for our understanding of the past but vital in navigating the present. We have to pay particular attention to the consequences of the interfaces that curate history, especially in relation to big data. Crowdsourcing, social media, linked open data, and other participatory and open science practices challenge the archiving practices in cultural heritage institutions, but they also open up new opportunities and practices when it comes to understanding and defining our shared culture. In this workshop we will bring together researchers who have studied these issues or are working to develop critical perspectives on archiving practices. Deadline for submissions is April 3, 2020. The maximum length of a position paper is 2,000 words. The papers should follow the CSCW formatting guidelines<https://www.springer.com/journal/10606/submission-guidelines>. Submissions and inquiries shall be sent to the following email address: khansson(a)dsv.su.se<mailto:khansson@dsv.su.se> Authors of accepted papers will be invited to contribute to a special issue on the theme.

La Cura VS COVID19
by xDxD.vs.xDxD 25 Mar '20

25 Mar '20

Hi everyone! (I am reposting this from another mailing list because I think that it can interest many here: sorry if I'm wrong) My cancer decided to came back now I'm fine, don't worry: I have had another surgery that went well, and I'm fully recovering but this synchronicity has been really important for those who remember, back in 2012, when I had my first cancer, i used medical data to propose a global repositioning of disease in society: https://www.artisopensource.net/projects/la-cura/ a cure can happen only in the middle of society: that was the synthesis of La Cura, the global performance into which I had transformed my cancer, inspired by visionary innovators such as Franco Basaglia What is, now, La Cura at the time of COVID19? It turns out that it's a really meaningful continuation in the same direction: a cancer and a global pandemic perfectly show the coexistence of two dimensions: the individual and the ecosystem This coexistence has a tragic aspect: the two dimensions can be at open war with each other This was perfectly clear, for example, while being in the hospital: I risked not being able to have my surgery because of the COVID19 situation. This tragic character of the situation is exactly the condition which we'll start to face in the crises that are about to start coming up systematically: climate change, migrations, poverty, health, access and the others. The tragic coexistence between the individual and the ecosytem, and the problems that come with it: which are complex and, thus, irreducible. Complexity doesn't have "solution". It has a life, a way to cope with it, but not a solution in the sense of being able to reduce it to a point. There's no App for it. In today's life we have tried all to try to remove tragedy from our lives. And, instead, this new condition shows us just how much we need this tragic dimension in our lives. As tragedy is complexity, and complexity is tragic and irreducible: it just doesn't go away. And: with/after tragedy comes Agnition: the ability to understand, recognize and transform/adapt. In our world, this tragic dimension has a lot to do with data and computation. The complex phenomena of our planet can be only experieced through enormous quantities and qualities of data, and through the computation needed to collect them, and to processes and represent them. How can I experience climate change (as a global phenomenon, not just because it is hotter in my city)? COV19? Povety? etc Data, data, data, and computation. Understanding this tragic condition, in context, means that data + computation need to be addressed as existential issues, not as technical ones. This means a necessary focus shift towards finding/building the new rituals, times, habits, practices and traditions with which we will learn to inhabit our world through data and computation. This is, for example, what we've been doing with the Datapoiesis project: https://datapoiesis.com/home/ And this is what we will continue to do now, through this tragic continuation of La Cura. We started writing two articles about it: they're in italian for now, but if there's interest and if someone who speaks native english can help me out, we'd love to translate and share. Here they are, and we designed the article series so that we arrive at a total of 10 articles: https://operavivamagazine.org/sogni-e-nuovi-rituali/ https://operavivamagazine.org/i-rituali-del-nuovo-abitare-dopo-la-tragedia/ BTW: if anyone wants to join in: i think it would form a wonderful publications in these times of "La Cura VS COVID19" Thanks everyone: be safe and happy Salvatore -- Art is Open Source - http://www.artisopensource.net Human Ecosystems Relazioni - https://www.he-r.it/ Ubiquitous Commons - http://www.ubiquitouscommons.org

ACM UMAP 2020 - Deadline Approaching for Doctoral Consortium Papers
by Daricia Wilkinson 24 Mar '20

24 Mar '20

============================ Call for Doctoral Consortium 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/ ============================ Paper Submission: March 30, 2020 Notification to authors: April 22, 2020 Camera ready submission: May 3, 2020 Note: The submissions times are 11:59 PM AoE time (Anywhere on Earth) ============================ BACKGROUND AND SCOPE: ============================ ACM UMAP 2020, the premier international conference on systems that adapt to users and user models for adaptation, includes a Doctoral Consortium (DC) Session. The DC provides an opportunity for doctoral students to explore and develop their research interests under the guidance of distinguished researchers from the field. Doctoral students are invited to apply to present their research to experienced scholars who will provide constructive feedback and advice. Students are expected to document in a brief submission their doctoral research (see below described submission information for further details), which will be evaluated by the consortium committee. Good quality applications will be selected for presentation at a Doctoral Consortium Session as part of the conference. Promising, but less well- developed applications will be selected for presentation at a poster session. Each student with an accepted submission will be assigned a mentor who will provide feedback on the student’s work and will discuss the doctoral research with the student and the audience at the consortium. SUBMISSION AND REVIEW PROCESS ============================ To apply for the ACM UMAP 2020 doctoral consortium, students should submit a paper presenting their doctoral research organized under the following headings: - Research Problem. The problem being addressed and a motivation outlining the relevance of the problem; - Related Work. Work already performed by other researchers related to this problem. This should situate your work, showing your knowledge of the relevant previous work and how your work will make a new contribution; - Research Questions and Proposed Approach. The main questions the PhD project aims to answer, contributions it aims to achieve, and the thesis methodology; - Progress to Date and Future Work. The progress made to date (including a clear description of the approach, methodology and preliminary results) as well as the plan for further research. Topics include (but are not limited to) the ACM UMAP 2020 key areas. Each DC submission should cover: identification of related (state of the art) work, indication of the potential innovation, application or advancement of the state-of-the-art that the work intends to achieve. In addition, as appropriate for the PhD project, each submission may cover: indication of data to be used for experimentation, indication of implementation approach, indication of evaluation criteria and experimental design. Each DC paper submission should be accompanied by a cover page that states: the paper title, name of the PhD candidate, the name of his/her supervisor(s) and University, a paragraph describing the stage they are in the PhD programme, together with a brief description of their background. This will enable the committee to adapt its assistance to each student. The DC will be most useful to students who have completed enough of their thesis work to have a solid foundation with a clear topic and literature review but the student should be early enough in their studies to still benefit from guidance and advice. Papers should be submitted via the EasyChair submission system <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=acmumap2019dc> https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=acmumap2020 by selecting the “UMAP 2020 Doctoral Consortium” track. Papers will be reviewed single-blind and do not need to be anonymized before submission. Submissions should be pdf documents consisting of 1 cover page and the paper (up to 4 pages long), formatted using the ACM SIG proceedings template: https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template. Please note that ACM changed its templates at the start of 2017, so please ensure that you use the new template and do not reuse an old template. PUBLICATION AND PRESENTATION ============================ The accepted ACM UMAP 2020 Doctoral Consortium papers will be included in the Conference Proceedings, which will be published by ACM and that will be available via the ACM Digital Library. The main author (doctoral student) must register for the conference and present the paper for the paper to be included in the proceedings. FINANCIAL SUPPORT ============================ ACM UMAP has a history of supporting students to attend. Authors of submissions to the DC will have higher priority for UMAP grant applications. DOCTORAL CONSORTIUM CHAIRS ============================ - Judy Kay, University of Sydney, Australia - Judith Masthoff, Utrecht University, the Netherlands and University of Aberdeen, UK ============================ UMAP Statement on Coronavirus ============================ UMAP 2020 will proceed as planned July 14-17, but we will continue to monitor the evolving situation related to the coronavirus disease outbreak and potential impact on global travel. We are following the guidelines provided by the World Health Organisation (WHO), local public health authorities, individual governments and the Italian Government. Decisions will be based on that. We wish to reassure that should a physical conference be unsafe or should people have travel limitations from Governments, the remote presentations/recordings will be possible. Proceedings of the Main Conference and Adjunct Proceedings will be available as planned in the ACM Digital Library. Any changes to operating status will be communicated immediately on the website and social media as well as to all authors of accepted papers and to registered meeting attendees. Stay tuned. ============================ -- Daricia Wilkinson Ph.D. Student School of Computing Clemson University 100 McAdams Hall Clemson, SC, 29634

Hi Seongho, If your query is within the last 36 months, then no purchase necessary! Check out OSoMe: The Observatory of Social Media<https://rapidapi.com/truthy/api/osome-observatory-on-social-media-1/details>, a project from Indiana University that has been permitted to archive the so called decahose (10% of the public timeline). In addition to the tweet archive, OSoMe also has a number of other…er...awesome tools<https://osome.iuni.iu.edu/tools/>. You simply specify what you’re looking for, and it will return a list of tweet id’s which you can “rehydrate” using a number of libraries. Fortunately, the libraries I was going to recommend (Twarc<https://github.com/DocNow/twarc>) has recently been turned into a stand alone app called Hydrator which an be downloaded here<https://github.com/DocNow/hydrator/releases>. Both are a part of the Documenting the Now Project<https://www.docnow.io/> Benjamin

Fwd: Lifeline usage in rural communities?
by Joly MacFie 24 Mar '20

24 Mar '20

Anyone here can help Henning? ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Henning Schulzrinne <henning.schulzrinne(a)gmail.com> Date: Tue, Mar 24, 2020 at 12:06 PM If you happen to be aware of any research or data that analyzes the usage of Lifeline subsidized phone or broadband services in urban vs. rural communities, please let me know. (I have a state-by-state breakdown, but nothing below that aggregation level.) Also, since Lifeline eligibility is coupled, in part, to Medicaid eligibility, I wonder if states choosing (or not) to expand Medicaid under ACA has affected Lifeline uptake in different states. [This question is of more than academic interest for me at the moment; feel free to send an email and I'll tell you more.] Henning -- -- -------------------------------------- Joly MacFie +2185659365 -------------------------------------- -

New article: ‘Open source has won and lost the war’
by Mathieu.O'Neil 24 Mar '20

24 Mar '20

Hi all Some people might be interested in a new article dealing with how FOSS has been adopted by commercial firms. FWIW others are also active in this research area at the moment (see Birkinbine 2020, Lund & Zukerfeld 2020). cheers Mathieu ‘Open source has won and lost the war’: Legitimising commercial–communal hybridisation in a FOSS project by Mathieu O’Neil, Laure Muselli, Mahin Raissi and Stefano Zacchiroli, New Media & Society. Summary: Information technology (IT) firms are paying developers in Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) projects, leading to the emergence of hybrid forms of work. In order to understand how the firm–project hybridisation process occurs, we present the results of an online survey of participants in the Debian project, as well as interviews with Debian Developers. We find that the intermingling of the commercial logic of the firm and the communal logic of the project requires rhetorical legitimation. We analyse the discourses used to legitimise firm–project cooperation as well as the organisational mechanisms which facilitate this cooperation. A first phase of legitimation, based on firm adoption of open licenses and developer self-fulfilment, aims to erase the commercial/communal divide. A second more recent phase seeks to professionalise work relations inside the project and, in doing so, challenges the social order which restricts participation in FOSS. Ultimately, hybridisation raises the question of the fair distribution of the profits firms derive from FOSS. https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/1461444820907022?journalCode=n… The preprint is available here: https://upsilon.cc/~zack/research/publications/ [UC Logo]<http://www.canberra.edu.au> [UC ranked 10th of universities in Australia] [UC Facebook]<https://www.facebook.com/UniversityOfCanberra>[UC Twitter]<https://twitter.com/UniCanberra>[UC Instagram]<https://www.instagram.com/unicanberra/>[UC Linkedin]<https://au.linkedin.com/school/university-of-canberra/>[UC Youtube]<https://www.youtube.com/user/uniofcanberra> [University of Canberra] <http://www.canberra.edu.au> Australian Government Higher Education Registered Provider (CRICOS) #00212K The University of Canberra acknowledges the Ngunnawal people, traditional custodians of the lands where Bruce Campus is situated.

REFRESH 2020 (ONLINE) 1st International Workshop on Real-life modeling in 5G networks and beyond - IEEE DCOSS 2020 - Deadline April 30th, 2020
by Eirini Eleni Tsiropoulou 23 Mar '20

23 Mar '20

========================================================================================================== REFRESH 2020 (ONLINE) 1st International Workshop on Real-life modeling in 5G networks and beyond - IEEE DCOSS 2020 ========================================================================================================== Due to the pandemic, DCOSS 2020 Workshops will be held in an ONLINE manner, without physical attendance. Still, all accepted papers will be included in the IEEE Proceedings as planned, in the same volume with the main event. Reduced registration fees will apply. Scope and Overview: The economic and societal potential of emerging 5G and cyber-physical social systems is vastly greater than what has been realized so far, and major investments are being made worldwide to develop the corresponding science and technology. The Future Internet paradigm, the proliferation of emerging networks and architectures, wireless access technologies and multi-homing smart devices are evolving towards a competitive environment, where users and devices have access to various resources, while their behaviors become strongly interdependent. This fact demands and motivates the development of user-centric resource management and optimization frameworks, which enable user's self-optimization and autonomy. This vision is further motivated and supported by the convergence of various emerging technologies enabling Cyber-Physical Systems operation, including 5G/B5G technologies, Internet of Things (IoT), Mobile Edge Computing and Software Defined Networking, all targeting flexibility and efficiency. To deal with the involved complexity, and driven by the requirements of autonomy and scalability, distributed resource orchestration approaches appear as a necessity rather than a desire. The REFRESH Workshop aims at to stimulate research on the most novel topics of real-life modeling in 5G networks and beyond. This year's edition encourages submission of theoretical and experimental work (including studies of real deployment), with a primary interest in new directions of wireless networking in concrete application scenarios and demonstrators in areas such as, but not limited to: mobile edge computing, Internet of Things, cyber-physical systems, unmanned aerial vehicles, public safety networks, dynamic spectrum utilization, smart grid communications, wireless power communication, green wireless networks, information-centric wireless networks. The workshop seeks original work presented in the form of research papers describing new research and development approaches and results, as well as work-in-progress papers. Highly disruptive work-in-progress and position papers are also welcome, provided they focus on particularly innovative solutions or applications for 5G networks and beyond. All papers shall be forward-looking, describe their relationship to existing work, and shall argue their impact and implications for ongoing or future research. Selected workshop papers will also be considered for publication in a Special Issue and/or Special Sections of international peer-reviewed journals. Topics of interest include but are not limited to * 5G Cellular systems and beyond * Cognitive radio networks, dynamic spectrum access and emerging applications and services * Wireless power transfer and energy harvesting for wireless networks * Delay tolerant networks * Wireless communications on different media * End-to-end protocols, flow and congestion control * Artificial intelligence and machine learning for wireless networks * Attack modelling, prevention, mitigation, and defense in wireless networks * Security, Reliability, Privacy and Trust in Wireless Networks * Green Wireless Networks * Heterogeneous, Small-Cell and Dense networks * Information-centric wireless networks * Internet of Things * Pervasive and wearable computing and networking * Public Safety Networks * Social wireless networks * Quality of Service provisioning and management in 5G networks and beyong * Quality of Experience and User Experience in 5G networks and beyond * Software-defined wireless neworks * Vehicular wireless networks * Wireless mesh networks * Wireless multimedia networks * Wireless network virtualization * Multiple Access, Radio Resource Management, Interference Management and Scheduling * Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) Networks * Hybrid communication systems (e.g., satellite/unmaneed aerial vehicles/terrestrial/wireline hybrids) * Machine learning-based resource allocation for wireless networks * Reinforcement learning and deep learning for 5G networks and beyond * Architectures, models, security, and approaches for smart grid networks * Economics and pricing for 5G networks and beyond * Smart Cities supported by 5G networks and beyond * Scalability, Robustness and Resilience in 5G networks and beyond Important Dates Paper submission deadline: April 30th, 2020 Authors Notification: May 15th, 2020 Camera-ready submission: June 10th, 2020 Workshop: ONLINE Submission Guidelines General Paper Format Authors are invited to submit original unpublished manuscripts that demonstrate current research on real-life modeling in 5G networks and beyond related to REFRESH workshop's topics of interest.
