11 Apr '12

Apologies if you receive multiple copies.) VAST Challenge 2012 Call for Participation Mini-challenge 2 data now available! See http://www.vacommunity.org/vastchallenge2012 This year's VAST Challenge focuses on visual analytics applications for both large scale situation analysis and cyber security. There will be two mini-challenges to test your visual analytics applications and your analytical skills. Available now: In mini-challenge 1, (the imaginary) BankWorld's largest financial institution, the (fictitious) Bank of Money needs your best situation awareness visualizations to understand the health of its global corporate network. How do you visualize status data for a network containing nearly a million computers in a way that you can perceive network health and identify problems? Available now: In mini-challenge 2, unusual events are occurring in one of the Bank of Money's regional offices. Some of them may very well wreak havoc across the institution if they turn out to be malicious. What are these unusual events? And if you were in charge of computer security, what actions should be taken to safeguard the network and quite possibly save the Bank of Money from disaster? (Participants from last year's VAST challenge may find their firewall and IDS log analysis tools useful for this challenge as well.) We encourage participation by individuals and teams in industry and academia. Creative approaches to visual analytics are encouraged. Please visit http://www.vacommunity.org/vastchallenge2012 for more information about the challenge and to download datasets and instructions. Data for mini-challenge 1 is available now.

VizSec 2012
by John Goodall 11 Apr '12

11 Apr '12

VizSec 2012 will be held in mid-October as part of VisWeek in Seattle. When we know the exact date, we will update the web site. Papers are due July 1. The International Symposium on Visualization for Cyber Security (VizSec) is a forum that brings together researchers and practitioners from academia, government, and industry to address the needs of the cyber security community through new and insightful visualization techniques. Co-located this year with VisWeek, the 9th VizSec will provide new opportunities for the usability and visualization communities to collaborate and share insights on a broad range of security-related topics. Accepted papers will appear in the ACM Digital Library as part of the ACM International Conference Proceedings Series. Important research problems often lie at the intersection of disparate domains. Our focus is to explore effective, scalable visual interfaces for security domains, where visualization may provide a distinct benefit, including computer forensics, reverse engineering, insider threat detection, cryptography, privacy, preventing 'user assisted' attacks, compliance management, wireless security, secure coding, and penetration testing in addition to traditional network security. Human time and attention are precious resources. We are particularly interested in visualization and interaction techniques that effectively capture human analyst insights so that further processing may be handled by machines, freeing the analyst for other tasks. For example, a malware analyst might use a visualization system to analyze a new piece of malicious software and then facilitate generating a signature for future machine processing. When appropriate, research that incorporates multiple data sources, such as network packet captures, firewall rule sets and logs, DNS logs, web server logs, and/or intrusion detection system logs, is particularly desirable. More information is on the web site: http://www.ornl.gov/sci/vizsec/

CFP: IEEE Network Magazine, Special Issue on Computer Network Visualization
by John Goodall 28 Mar '12

28 Mar '12

Call for Papers IEEE Network Magazine http://dl.comsoc.org/livepubs/ni/ Extended Deadline - May 1, 2012 Special Issue on Computer Network Visualization, Nov./Dec. 2012 issue Background Computer networks are dynamic, growing, and continually evolving. As complexity grows, it becomes harder to effectively communicate to human decision-makers the results of methods and metrics for monitoring networks, classifying traffic, and identifying malicious or abnormal events. Network administrators and security analysts require tools that help them understand, reason about, and make decisions about the information their analytic systems produce. To this end, information visualization and visual analytics hold great promise for making the information accessible, usable, and actionable by taking advantage of the human perceptual abilities. Information visualization techniques help network administrators and security analysts to quickly recognize patterns and anomalies; visually integrate heterogeneous data sources; and provide context for critical events. Scope This special issue seeks original articles examining the state of the art, open issues, research results, evaluations of visualization and visual analytic tools, and future research directions in computer network visualization and visual analytics. All submissions should be written to be understandable and appealing to a general audience. Research papers should contain a substantial amount of tutorial content and minimal mathematics. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Uses of visualization for network status monitoring and situational awareness * Visualization methods employed in the classification of network traffic and its analysis * Visualization methods enhancing network intrusion detection and anomaly detection * Visualization methods for the analysis of network threats (e.g. botnets) * Visualization methods for the analysis of network routing * Methods for integrating analytics and visualization together for network analysis tasks * Methods for visually integrating heterogeneous data sources to support network analysis tasks * Case studies of open source visualization tools in network analysis tasks * Evaluations of network visualization tools in situ Manuscript Submission Articles should be written in a style comprehensible and appealing to readers outside the speciality of the article. Authors must follow the IEEE Network Magazine guidelines regarding the manuscript and its format. For details, please refer to the "Guidelines for manuscripts" at the IEEE Network Magazine web site at http://dl.comsoc.org/livepubs/ni/info/authors.html.

CfP: VLC 2012 deadline extended: submissions due April 15th
by J.Burton＠brighton.ac.uk 26 Mar '12

26 Mar '12

(Apologies if you receive multiple copies of this message.) ===================================================== The paper submission deadline for VLC2012 is extended to Midnight EST, April 15, 2012. However in exceptional cases, we may provide short extensions to authors who may need a few more days to finalize their work. VLC 2012 CALL FOR PAPERS 2012 International Workshop on Visual Languages and Computing in conjunction with The 18th International Conference on Distributed Multimedia Systems Eden Roc Renaissance, Miami Beach, USA August 9 - August 11, 2012 (URL: http://www.ksi.edu/seke/dms12.html) Theme: Effectiveness of Visual Languages Organized by Knowledge Systems Institute, U.S.A. SCOPE Visual languages mediate human and computer interaction. For some visual languages this mediation is straightforward; using a mouse to access a drop-down menu is well-known to computer users. For others, this mediation can be enriched via sketch and gesture recognition. This is made possible by advances in commodity hardware. More formal visual languages allow experts to accurately specify complex systems, such as software architecture or chemical molecules. A visual language can also encompass complex human-computer interaction such as navigating a set of semantically linked videos. Indeed, precision of semantics underlies visual languages and computation. Aspects of visual computing are multi-faceted in goals that are to be achieved during information or language design. The following represents a short list of qualities that are of importance to the study within visual computing: efficiency, aesthetics, pleasure, emotion, engagement, immersion, collaboration, and culture. Aspects of art, engineering, and science play key roles where certain practitioners focus on design and engineering of visual interactions whereas others analyze and study these interactions (i.e., science). The International Workshop on Visual Languages and Computing will explore these issues, and will be held in conjunction with the 2012 International Conference of Distributed Multimedia Systems (http://www.ksi.edu/seke/dms12.html) For this year's special theme we request high-quality submissions on visual languages that increase the efficacy of various tasks, or on the effectiveness of visual languages themselves. In addition to the special theme, we continue to solicit papers on all aspects and approaches to visual languages and computing, including interactive visual computing, computer-empowered visual computing, human-empowered visual computing, transformation algorithms for visual computing, and visual languages for visual computing. TOPICS The following topics are of special interest: Aesthetic Computing Ambient Information Interaction Automated Generation and Layout of Visualisations Biomedical Imagery Computer-Assisted Visual Art and Design Fusion of Vision with Audio and Other Modalities Gestural Computing Human-Machine Interface Design Human Vision Systems and Models Parallel/Distributed/Neural Computing and Representations for Visual Information Pictorial Databases and Information Systems Scientific Visualization Sketch and Gesture based design Sketch and Gesture based interaction with data Sketch Recognition Software to Support the use of Visual Languages Visual and Spatial/Temporal Reasoning Visual Computing for Expert Communities Visual Computing in Bioinformatics and Systems Biology Visual Computing on Sensed Data Visual Languages Visual Programming Visualization of Computational Processes SUBMISSION OF PAPERS Submissions that address research and development on the above and other related topics are strongly encouraged. All the submitted papers will be reviewed by the international Program Committee members. Accepted papers will be published in the Proceedings of DMS 2012. A selection of the best papers will be invited for subsequent publication in a special issue of the Journal of Visual Languages and Computing. Papers of up to six (6) IEEE double-column pages should be submitted electronically via the VLC 2012 paper submission page: http://conf.ksi.edu/vlc2012/submit/SubmitPaper.php (submission site will be open Jan 1, 2012).

CFP AVI 2012 Workshop: Supporting Asynchronous Collaboration in Visual Analytics Systems (submission March 23)
by Nathalie Riche 23 Mar '12

23 Mar '12

(Apologies for multiple emails) (Please feel free to forward this to colleagues or to other relevant lists) Last call for papers Supporting Asynchronous Collaboration in Visual Analytics Systems, AVI 2012 workshop (21 may 2012) Submission deadline: March 23, 2012 *** Topic *** Visual analytics involves complex analytical processes that can often benefit from collaboration. Many researchers have explored co-located synchronous systems to help support collaborative visual analytics; however, the process can often be long and require a series of sessions. Providing support for asynchronous collaboration in visual analytics systems can help divide the problem between several analysts across many sessions to ensure that they can effectively work together toward a solution. Currently, visual analytics systems offer limited support for asynchronous, multi-session work. In this workshop, we seek to bring together researchers from both the CSCW and Visual Analytics communities to discuss avenues for supporting asynchronous collaboration in visual analytics system. *** Submissions *** We invite authors to submit 2-4 page papers reporting contributions in the areas of collaborative visual analytics, or asynchronous collaboration or 2-page position statements motivating their interest in the workshop topic. Papers should be formatted according to the AVI 2012 (ACM SIG Proceedings) format. The selection of workshop participants and presentations will be based on refereed submissions. Authors of accepted submissions will be invited to give short presentations. We will interweave presentation sessions with longer periods of discussions. Presentations will be grouped by key topics to foster spontaneous discussions. Please send submissions to nath(a)microsoft.com *** Important dates *** Submission deadline: 23 March 2012 Notification of acceptance: 29 March 2012 Final submission: 2 April 2012 Workshop date: 21 May 2012 *** Organizers *** Nathalie Henry Riche, Microsoft Research, USA Kori Inkpen, Microsoft Research, USA Mary Czerwinski, Microsoft Research, USA John Stasko, Georgia Institute of Technology, USA Tom Gross, University of Bamberg, Germany
