Knowledge-based Expressive Technologies within Cloud Computing Environments
Presented paper describes the development of comprehensive approach for
knowledge processing within e-Sceince tasks. Considering the task solving
within a simulation-driven approach a set of knowledge-based procedures for
task definition and composite application processing can be identified. This
procedures could be supported by the use of domain-specific knowledge being
formalized and used for automation purpose. Within this work the developed
conceptual and technological knowledge-based toolbox for complex
multidisciplinary task solv-ing support is proposed. Using CLAVIRE cloud
computing environment as a core platform a set of interconnected expressive
technologies were developed.Comment: Proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Intelligent

Elastic Business Process Management: State of the Art and Open Challenges for BPM in the Cloud
With the advent of cloud computing, organizations are nowadays able to react
rapidly to changing demands for computational resources. Not only individual
applications can be hosted on virtual cloud infrastructures, but also complete
business processes. This allows the realization of so-called elastic processes,
i.e., processes which are carried out using elastic cloud resources. Despite
the manifold benefits of elastic processes, there is still a lack of solutions
supporting them.
In this paper, we identify the state of the art of elastic Business Process
Management with a focus on infrastructural challenges. We conceptualize an
architecture for an elastic Business Process Management System and discuss
existing work on scheduling, resource allocation, monitoring, decentralized
coordination, and state management for elastic processes. Furthermore, we
present two representative elastic Business Process Management Systems which
are intended to counter these challenges. Based on our findings, we identify
open issues and outline possible research directions for the realization of
elastic processes and elastic Business Process Management.Comment: Please cite as: S. Schulte, C. Janiesch, S. Venugopal, I. Weber, and

DevOps is Bigger than IT: Driving Digital Transformation in Libraries
The DevOps movement represents a paradigm shift in software development, but there are misconceptions about what it really means. It’s much more nuanced than simply adding a DevOps engineer to your team or asking systems administrators and developers to play well together. At its core, DevOps is about culture change. In this talk, we will define the CALMS framework of DevOps and the people, technical, and organizational factors that challenge its adoption. We will share specific examples of how DevOps is changing the way we work on digital library projects at Ohio State University Libraries and how its universal principles can drive large-scale digital transformation in libraries.
