Sixth Asia-Pacific Conference on Conceptual Modelling
(APCCM 2009)
January 20-23, 2009 -- Wellington, New Zealand
http://2009.apccm.org/
The Asia-Pacific Conferences on Conceptual Modelling provide an annual
forum for disseminating the results of innovative research in
information modelling and related areas.
The sixth conference of the series will be held in January 2009 as part
of the Australasian Computer Science Week (ACSW 2009), which will be
hosted by Victoria University, Wellington, New Zealand.
Registration to APCCM will enable delegates to attend sessions in any
conference participating in the Australasian Computer Science Week.
KEY INFORMATION
---------------
- Keynote Speaker: Ronald Fagin (IBM Almaden Research Center, USA)
- Submission Due Dates: (abstract) Aug 31, 2008; (paper) Sep 06, 2008
- Awards: (best paper) NZ $500 sponsored by SIM, Victoria Univeristy, NZ

SCOPE OF THE CONFERENCE
-----------------------
The amount, complexity and diversity of information held in computer
systems are constantly on the increase, and so are the requirements and
challenges to be met for useful access and manipulation of this
information. Conceptual modelling is fundamental to the development of
up-to-date information and knowledge-based systems. The conference
series aims at bringing together experts from all areas of computer
science and information systems with a common interest in the subject.
APCCM invites contributions addressing current research in conceptual
modelling as well as experiences, novel applications and future
challenges. Topics of interest include, but are not restricted to:
* Business, enterprise, process and services modelling;
* Concepts, concept theories and ontologies;
* Conceptual modelling and user participation;
* Conceptual modelling for decision support and expert systems;
digital libraries; e-business, e-commerce and e-banking systems;
health care systems; knowledge management systems; mobile
information systems; user interfaces; and Web-based systems;
* Conceptual modelling of semi-structured data and XML;
* Conceptual modelling of spatial, temporal and biological data;
* Conceptual modelling quality;
* Conceptual models in management science;
* Design patterns and object-oriented design;
* Evolution and change in conceptual models;
* Implementations of information systems;
* Information and schema integration;
* Information customisation and user profiles;
* Information recognition and information modelling;
* Information retrieval, analysis, visualisation and prediction;
* Information systems design methodologies;
* Knowledge discovery, knowledge representation and knowledge
management;
* Methods for developing, validating and communicating conceptual
models;
* Philosophical, mathematical and linguistic foundations of
conceptual models;
* Reuse, reverse engineering and reengineering;
* Semantic Web; and
* Software engineering and tools for information systems development.
PAPER SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION
--------------------------------
APCCM invites papers describing original contributions in all fields of
conceptual modelling and related areas. Papers should be no more than
10 pages in length conforming to the formatting instructions as outlined
below.
Each paper will be judged on its originality, significance, technical
quality, relevance and presentation. The quality of accepted papers is
further strengthened by a low acceptance rate of under 30%.
A submission must not be under review at any other venue. In case a
double submission is discovered, the corresponding paper will be
rejected immediately. Furthermore, submission of a paper should be
regarded as an undertaking that, should the paper be accepted, at least
one author will attend the conference to present the work.
After the conference, authors of the best papers will be invited to
submit an extended version for publication in the Journal of Research
and Practice in Information Technology (JRPIT).
Formatting Guidelines
---------------------
The proceedings of this event will be published by the ACS in the CRPIT
Series. The formatting requirements and resources for authors can be
found on the CRPIT Authors Page together with a list of all upcoming
volumes.
Electronic Submission
---------------------
Submission to APCCM 2009 will be electronically only. Authors are asked
to create a submission system account first. Subsequently, this account
can be used to submit one or more abstracts and upload corresponding
papers.
The online submission system will be available from late July 2008.

AWARDS
------
Best Paper Award
----------------
The best paper, as judged by the APCCM Program Committee, will receive
an award of NZ $500.- sponsored by the School of Information Management,
Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand.
Best Student Paper Award
------------------------
The best student paper, as judged by the APCCM Program Committee, will
receive an award of AUS $500.- sponsored by CORE, Australia. However,
the best student paper award is given only if at least five student
papers are accepted at APCCM.
Papers are counted as student papers, if the major contribution is due
to a student author, who must be the first author of the paper. The
student should present the paper at the conference. Others (such as the
student's supervisor) can present the paper on the student's behalf only
under extreme circumstances.
Authors have to indicate to the program committee at the time of
submission that their paper is to be classified as a student paper. It
is OK to have the supervisor(s) as co-author(s). The supervisor or the
Head of Department must sign a statement to verify that the principal
author is a student at the time of submission (this letter must be sent
to the APCCM PC Chairs).
