[DMANET] Workshop on Challenges in Algorithmic Social Choice, October 8-11, 2014, Bad Belzig (near Berlin)
SECOND AND LAST CALL FOR APPLICATION AND PARTICIPATION
Workshop on Challenges in Algorithmic Social Choice
October 8-11, 2014, Eisenhardt Castle, Bad Belzig (near Berlin), Germany
http://akt.tu-berlin.de/menue/casc14
The workshop goal is to stimulate and discuss new research topics in a
thriving field of research at the interface of social choice theory
and computer science, algorithms and computational complexity. It
aims at bringing together young researchers and prominent researchers
working in the area of Computational Social Choice.
The workshop consists of six one-hour big-picture talks, short
contributed research talks, and sufficient room for small-group
discussions.
The big-picture talks are given by Edith Elkind (University of
Oxford), Ariel Procaccia (Carnegie Mellon University), Clemens Puppe
(Karlsruhe Institute of Technology), Arkadii Slinko (University of
Auckland), Toby Walsh (NICTA and University of New South Wales),
Gerhard J. Woeginger (Eindhoven University of Technology).
LOCATION AND COSTS:
We expect about forty participants, all hosted in Eisenhardt Castle
where also the talks and discussions will take place. Eisenhardt
castle is in the small spa town Bad Belzig about 70 kilometers
southwest of Berlin. It can directly be reached by a local train from
Berlin taking about one hour. Due to capacity constraints, regular
participants are asked to share doublerooms. The participation fee is
100 Euros, covering accommodation in the castle hotel and all food for
three days. The workshop starts with a welcome reception on Wednesday
evening, October 8, and ends with a lunch on Saturday, October 11.
PARTICIPATION REQUIREMENT:
Experienced researchers can directly contact the organizers by
email. Otherwise, potential participants are requested to apply
(through the workshop webpage) by providing a short CV and a short
statement concerning their motivation to participate, also sending a
few-line abstract of a potential short talk (around 15 minutes).
IMPORTANT DATES:
Application deadline: June 30, 2014 (through workshop webpage).
Notification: July 15, 2014.
Registration for successful applicants: July 31, 2014.
Workshop: October 8-11, 2014 (participants are expected to stay for
the whole workshop).
SUPPORT AND ORGANIZATION:
The workshop is supported by the German Research Foundation (DFG,
project PAWS NI 369/10), the DFG Research Training Group "Methods for
Discrete Structures", and TU Berlin.
The workshop chairs are Piotr Faliszewski (AGH University, Krakow,
Poland) and Rolf Niedermeier (TU Berlin).
The organizing committee consists of Robert Bredereck (chair), Jiehua

and practitioners working in privacy, security, trustworthy data
systems and related areas to submit their original papers in this
workshop. The main topics, but not limited to, include:
* Privacy Information Management
* Privacy Policy-based Infrastructures and Architectures
* Privacy-oriented Access Control Languages and Models
* Privacy in Trust Management
* Privacy in Digital Currencies
* Privacy Data Integration
* Privacy Risk Assessment and Assurance
* Privacy Services
* Cryptography and Cryptanalysis
* Privacy Policy Analysis
* Query Execution over Privacy Sensitive Data
* Privacy Preserving Data Mining
* Hippocratic and Water-marking Databases
* Privacy for Integrity-based Computing
* Privacy Monitoring and Auditing
* Privacy in Social Networks
* Privacy in Ambient Intelligence (AmI) Applications
* Individual Privacy vs. Corporate/National Security
* Privacy in computer networks
* Privacy and RFIDs
* Privacy and Big Data
* Privacy in sensor networks
========================================================================
Submission guidelines: Papers should be at most 15 pages (using
11-point font), excluding the bibliography and well-marked appendices.
Committee members are not required to read the appendices, so the
paper should be intelligible without them. All submissions must be
written in English.
Authors must submit their papers by the deadline indicated below,
using the EasyChair web site (at easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dpm2014)
and following the requirements stated there.
The submitted paper (in PDF format) should follow the template
indicated by Springer (see http://springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html).
It must start with a title, a short abstract, names and affiliations
of the authors, and a list of keywords.
All papers will be refereed. Accepted papers should be presented at
the Workshop. At least one author of each accepted paper must register
to the workshop, by the early date indicated by the organizers, and
present the paper.
The proceedings will be published in a volume of Lecture Notes in
Computer Science (Springer-Verlag).
Submissions by PhD students as well as controversial ideas are
encouraged. Case studies (successful or not) are also encouraged.
It is expected that extended and revised version of the best papers
from the workshop will be considered for international journal special

[DMANET] Postdoc positions at Inria in Lyon, France
Two postdoc opportunities at Inria in Lyon, France
In the context of a FP7 KBBE European Project, BacHBerry ("BACterial
Hosts for production of Bioactive phenolics from bERRY fruits"), we are
seeking two postdoc candidates, each for one year, renewable for up
to two years.
The candidates will work in the BAMBOO team at the Inria-UCBL in
Lyon, France (http://team.inria.fr/bamboo/), in interaction with the
partners of BacHBerry, in particular the CSI team at the IDMEC-IST
in Lisbon, Portugal (http://www.idmec.ist.utl.pt/).
Both BAMBOO and CSI are methodological teams with an expertise
in computational and systems biology.
This project aims at tapping the potential of living organisms or systems
to develop or make natural chemical compounds that are believed to be
useful for medicine, agriculture, bioremediation, biodegradation, or etc.
Most often, the compound is already produced by the organism but in
small quantity, and one needs then to manipulate it in order for the
production to be increased. Other situations require transplanting part of
the chemical factory of an organism into another, in general a bacterium,
for better efficiency. In some cases, the transplant might better be split
among a community of different bacteria in interaction.
BacHBerry is more specifically interested in the generation of bacterial
platforms for sustainable bio-based production of phenolic compounds
found in berry fruits. Phenolics are recognised for their antioxydant
health-promoting and functional properties, and applied across
applications as diverse as aromas, colours, nutraceuticals, and medicines.
More specifically, we are looking for candidates with a PhD in one of
the following areas: computer science, mathematics, statistics, computational
biology, metabolic engineering, regulation, or related, with a strong taste
for inter-disciplinary research, and with very good interpersonal skills.
Ideally, the person will have a long experience with graph algorithms,
discrete combinatorics and/or optimisation techniques.
Unsual CVs are welcome. Knowledge of the portuguese language would
also be a plus :-)
Applications should include a motivation letter, a CV, and the address
of three references.
The applications should be sent to:
Marie-France Sagot, marie-france.sagot@inria.fr
putting also in copy the partner in Lisbon:
Susana Vinga, susanavinga@gmail.com
ideally before July 31, 2014.

[DMANET] Elsevier ComCom Special Issue on Online Social Networks
CALL FOR PAPERS
Elsevier - Computer Communications Journal
Special Issue on
Online Social Networks
http://www.journals.elsevier.com/computer-communications/call-for-papers/special-issue-on-online-social-networks1/
Submission Deadline: 19 October 2014
Online Social Networks are a massively successful phenomenon, used by
billions of users to interact. Nowadays they are key platforms for,
among others, content dissemination, social and professional networking,
recommendation, scouting, alerting, and political campaigns. The
research interest in OSNs is multi-faceted, and exploits an unmatched
source of large-scale data about the human behavior. It spans a number
of disciplines, across numerous fields in and beyond computer science,
all the way up to the analysis of human social relationships and how
they evolve and mature over time. Moreover, the pervasive presence of
users' mobile devices (e.g., smartphones) has opened new avenues in the
design of mobile social networking services, and in the study of the
interplay between mobility and social interactions. Research in OSN is a
fertile ground also for industry, to develop innovative ideas fostering
the design of the new generation of communication platforms and their
services.
This special issue seeks contributions pushing the state of the art in
all facets of Online Social Networks highlighted above. We also
encourage original work based on an interdisciplinary research (at the
boundary between computer science and humanistic disciplines such as
sociology and anthropology) where quantitative evidence is available
demonstrating the mutual advantage of such an approach. Therefore,
purely methodological papers or papers that do not present quantitative
results with real Online or Mobile Social Networking technologies are
considered out of scope. Moreover, special attention is expected in
interpreting the proposed research results in order to shed light
towards what users may need and wish in terms of novel, practical
services and application.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to) the following:
- Design of OSN platforms based on human behavioural models
- Analysis of OSN users' behaviour and its evolution over time
- Comparison of human social behaviour in Online and "offline" Social
Networks, and across OSNs
- Impact of Online Social Networks on human social behaviour
- Analysis of the use of social-networking sites in the urban context
- OSNs for supporting novel, social-oriented applications and services
- Mobile and Location-aware Online Social Networks
- OSN services enabled by the analysis of mobility and social behaviour
- Crowdsourcing for Online and Mobile Social Networks
- Dynamics of trends, information and opinion diffusion in OSN
- Smart recommendations and advertising in Online Social Networks
- Information extraction and search in Online Social Networks
- Privacy in management and analysis of Online and Mobile Social
Networks data
- Privacy, Security, Trust and Reputation in Online Social Networks
- Prevention of misbehaviours (spamming, phishing, ...) in Online Social
Networks
- Modelling of Online Social Networks characteristics and mechanisms
- Graph analysis applied to Online Social Networks
- Complex networks techniques applied to the investigation of OSN
- Data Mining and Machine Learning to gain novel insights on Online
Social Networks
- Novel distributed solutions for designing, supporting and operating
Online Social Networks
- Networking, computation and data infrastructure support for Online
Social Network systems
