Fwd: [LIMITS] Call for Papers: Computing within Limits (LIMITS) 2025
by Vesna Manojlovic 17 Feb '25

17 Feb '25

FYI -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [LIMITS] Call for Papers: Computing within Limits (LIMITS) 2025 Date: Tue, 11 Feb 2025 01:19:51 +0100 From: Jan Tobias Muehlberg <jtmuehlberg(a)gmail.com> To: limits(a)googlegroups.com CC: jan.tobias.muehlberg(a)ulb.be, Christoph Becker <christoph.becker(a)utoronto.ca> Dear friends and colleagues, The 11th Workshop on Computing within Limits (LIMITS) will take place on June 26th and 27th 2025 in the online/hybrid format we established over the last years. Please consider submitting your LIMITS research by April 25th 2025, 11:59pm AoE. Links to the submission site, participation information, and everything else you ever wanted to know about LIMITS will be available at https://computingwithinlimits.org/2025/ _Important Dates_ Paper submission deadline: April 25th, 2025, 11:59pm AoE Paper reviews available: June 3rd, 2025 Camera ready deadline: June 20th, 2025 LIMITS Workshop: June 26th-27th, 2025 _About LIMITS_ The LIMITS workshop concerns the role of computing in human societies situated in a world of limits, such as limits of extractive logics, limits to a biosphere’s ability to recover, limits to our knowledge, or limits to technological solutions to societal issues. As an interdisciplinary group of researchers, practitioners, and scholars, we seek to reshape the computing research agenda, grounded by an awareness that contemporary computing research is intertwined with ecological limits in general, and climate- and climate justice-related limits in particular. LIMITS 2025 solicits submissions that move us closer towards computing that supports diverse human and non-human lifeforms and thriving biospheres. _Call for Papers_ We welcome scholarship by researchers, engineers, designers, and artists who are investigating and/or (re)designing computing systems in ways that engage with pressing ecological and social issues and crises. LIMITS is a place for a wide range of perspectives and approaches. We invite works that build on previous LIMITS work, such as provocations from earlier LIMITS gatherings (e.g., Unplanned Obsolescence, LIMITS 2017 or Computing as Ecocide, LIMITS 2023), that broadens the understanding of LIMITS (e.g., Age of Consequences, LIMITS 2015), that explores our own limits (e.g., Computing within Psychological Limits, LIMITS 2015), that explores strategies for working in a LIMITed world (e.g., Limits-aware computing, LIMITS 2015), or that design and/or build transitional systems (e.g., Solar-powered website, LIMITS 2021). Transitional Systems attempt to (re) design, implement, and/or evaluate a real-world or hypothetical socio-technical computing system in response to “implications for design” raised by earlier LIMITS papers or LIMITS-related scholarship in the areas of computing and sustainability, computing and climate-justice. LIMITS also strives to be a place for envisioning technologies otherwise: a place for pluriversal design, for work that considers how visions and frameworks of degrowth and post-growth affect computing, or how computing can grapple with colonialism. We also encourage authors to envision and submit research on Hypothetical Systems, i.e., speculative design work or proposals for hypothetical computing systems or artifacts (either software, hardware, or some combination) that embody LIMITS thinking. Who would use this system? Who might benefit from engaging with the system? Who might be harmed? How are the premises (conceptual or concrete) upon which the system is built different from our current computing systems? How does LIMITS-informed system design enact different worlds or ways of being in these worlds? We encourage authors to consider the stories they tell and reify through their work. As Costanza-Chock reminds us, “Stories have power”. They ask us to consider, “(…) what stories are told about design problems, solutions, contexts, and outcomes? Who gets to tell these stories? Who participates, who benefits, and who is harmed?” (Costanza-Chock 2020 p. 134). -- ~ Organise at the speed of trust. ~ https://cybersecurity.ulb.ac.be/jan-tobias-muhlberg/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "LIMITS" group.

FYI -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [LIMITS] CFP: ACM Conference on Computing and Sustainable Societies (COMPASS) - July 2025 - Toronto Date: Tue, 22 Oct 2024 12:54:02 -0700 (PDT) From: Robert Soden <robert.soden(a)gmail.com> To: LIMITS <limits(a)googlegroups.com> ACM COMPASS 2025, hosted at the University of Toronto, invites interdisciplinary research on sustainabilitywith a focus on how computing and moves toward sustainability are embedded in and shaped by specific local contexts—computing in place. Rooted in the broader discourse of sustainability but also open to questioning its prevailing narratives, COMPASS welcomes work that critically examines how technology intersects with social, environmental, and economic systems. This year's theme encourages a deeper, situated perspective on how technological practices emerge as solutions, but also contributors to the complexities they claim to address. COMPASS draws from a wide array of disciplines: computer and information sciences, social sciences, critical geography, environmental studies, economics, climate studies, and engineering. We aim to foster a discussion that interrogates not only the potentials but also the limitations of technology-led interventions in sustainability. This includes research that explores power dynamics, inequality, and extraction—how technology might reinforce or disrupt existing systems. We encourage work from activists, worker advocates, and indigenous scholars, alongside those studying topics such as labour movements, climate adaptation, and the ethics of sustainability practices. COMPASS values research that brings forth the often-unseen political and material consequencesof digital infrastructure in shaping futures. COMPASS explicitly promotes multi-disciplinary and cross-disciplinary research and practice that address key challenges for sustainable societies including, but not limited to, equity, health, education, poverty, accessibility, conservation, climate change, energy, infrastructure and economic growth. We also welcome research on the ethics of technology, especially from a critical perspective, that explores limitations and concerns with technology-led solutions for sustainable societies. COMPASS also has a particular commitment to approaches and research that address the challenges faced by under-represented and marginalized communities. The theme of the conference will be Computing in Place. We also invite submissions that speak to that theme and/or contribute to one or more of the following areas: * Systems and IoT for Sustainable Societies * HCI, Design and Critical Perspectives * AI, ML and Data Science for Sustainable Societies * Development, Economics and Policy * Environment, Sustainability and Climate Change * Technology, Media, and Social Practice Papers: In our papers track, we welcome a variety of submission types, including deployment experiences, practitioner reports, user studies, ethnographies, design research, and systems building. We invite contributions from a range of fields, practices, and individuals who may not see themselves as traditionally members of 'computing' disciplines, including the humanities and social sciences, climate and sustainability research, and community advocacy. Accepted papers will be published as a conference proceedings with the ACM. Important Dates for Papers: * Submission site open: January 10, 2025 * Paper Deadline: January 17, 2025 * Notifications: March 21, 2025 * Camera-Ready Completion Deadline: April 7, 2025 Deadlines are anywhere on earth (AoE) time. Please find full information about the call at: https://compass.acm.org/call-for-papers/ <https://compass.acm.org/call-for-papers/> Late-Breaking Work: Accepted Late-Breaking Work submissions will be included in the ACM Archives and presented during a special posters session at the COMPASS conference. Authors must therefore expand or otherwise significantly modify versions of these works as papers to COMPASS or any other venue. This year, COMPASS is accepting late-breaking work submissions in multiple rounds.Authors who need visas to travel to Canada may consider submitting to the early round. Important Dates for Late-Breaking Work: * First Round o Submission Site Open: November 25, 2025 o Submission Deadline: December 1 o Notification to the Authors: January 15 o Camera-Ready Completion Deadline: February 7, 2025 * Second Round o Submission deadline: February 28 o Notification to the authors: April 15 o Camera-Ready Completion Deadline: May 7, 2025 Deadlines are anywhere on earth (AoE) time.

RIPE 89 Student Event: The Czech Internet Community in Focus
by Jelena Cosic 21 Oct '24

21 Oct '24

Dear colleagues, In less than a month, RIPE NCC will be hosting another RIPE meeting and this time around we're heading to the beautiful city of Prague, Czech Republic! The dates are October 28 - November 1; registration for the meeting is still open and a draft agenda is published with the final version coming soon. For more details, check the official page: https://ripe89.ripe.net Pre-RIPE 89 Online student event On Monday October 14 (17:00 - 18:30 UTC+2), NCC will organise a free online event aimed at people currently studying in the fields of networking, computer science, internet governance and other fields relevant to the RIPE community. The goal is to introduce them to the RIPE Community, encourage them to participate at the RIPE Meeting (in-person or online) and provide them with tips on how to make the most out of it. In this edition, we are putting a spotlight on the Czech Internet community and their remarkable contributions to building a stable, robust, and resilient Internet. We prepared a great agenda featuring excellent speakers who will share their firsthand experiences in founding, managing, and supporting critical infrastructure projects and initiatives in Czechia. As we are targeting undergrad and master students, the speakers will keep the content relatively high-level and focused on the importance of strong communities. Agenda and further information are available here: https://ripe89.ripe.net/programme/parallel-events/student-event NCC has also set aside a limited number of free student tickets (for all 5 days of the conference). We especially encourage students from Czech universities to apply, but the offer is extended to all. Registration for the online event <https://meeting-registration.ripe.net/meeting-pub/registration?10&meetingId…> is free and will be open until the day of the event. If you are working with students that might be interested in attending, we'd appreciate it if you could help with spreading the word around. Thank you! Kind regards, Jelena

Fwd: call for papers on scientific computing, due Dec 6
by Vesna Manojlovic ＠ RIPE.net 14 Oct '24

14 Oct '24

FYI -------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [Labor Tech] call for papers on scientific computing, due Dec 6 Date: Thu, 10 Oct 2024 11:27:58 -0600 From: Hannah Cohoon <johannacohoon(a)gmail.com> To: labor-tech(a)googlegroups.com Hi all, As co-chair for the applied social sciences paper track, I’d like to invite submissions to PASC25 <https://pasc25.pasc-conference.org/submission/guidelines-for-papers/>. The Platform for Advanced Scientific Computing (PASC) is co-sponsored by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) and the Swiss National Supercomputing Centre (CSCS). PASC25 will be held from June 16 to 18, 2025, at FHNW Campus Brugg-Windisch, Switzerland. I’ve been to this conference several times and found it to be a welcoming community particularly interested in best practices for scientific software development and case studies of social science methods being used to improve scientific infrastructure/development—including work practices. I see the Labor Tech community as particularly well positioned to address topics like the "extra work" of reproducibility efforts, software stewardship, and open source community building as well as the professionalization (or gigification?) of scientific software development and diversity issues within that career path. Papers accepted for PASC25 will be presented as talks and published in the Proceedings of the PASC Conference, accessible via the ACM Digital Library. We employ a rigorous academic peer-review process: most notably, we allow the possibility for provisional acceptance (revision and author rebuttal). For that reason, I’d encourage you to submit even if you’re not quite happy with the draft. The guidelines for submissions are published at https://pasc25.pasc-conference.org/submission/guidelines-for-papers/. *Papers are due Dec 6* with first round notifications in February. I’d be more than happy to talk about whether or not your paper idea would be appropriate (there’s also a talk only format and posters, so we could discuss those options as well). PASC does offer early career and student travel awards. Please reach out with any questions! best wishes, Hannah Cohoon LBNL -- Welcome to the Labor Tech reading group. We are a diverse group of writers, readers, and researchers with eclectic training and skills. We share an interest in the social, political, economic, cultural, and historical analysis of technology. We're more interested in critical analytics than in disciplinary affiliations. In order to manage an increasingly diverse group, we invite participation in discussions based on rigorous, critical readings of texts and practices, rather than based on opinion and hearsay (although a good gossip session at the end of a rigorous hour is often not a bad idea). No snarky disciplinary fights, ad hominem attacks, email flaming, please. Topics and styles of readings vary widely from one meeting to another. Attend only if you're interested; no apologies necessary if you're not. But do sign up (Drop Box, or direct email reply to organizer), to help us plan. --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Labor Tech Research Network" group.

Full workshop paper submissions will be reviewed again and, where possible, we will assign the same reviewers as for the extended abstracts. Where authors of accepted extended abstracts choose not to submit a full workshop paper, we will include the extended abstracts in our post-proceedings. Reviewing will be non-blind: Authors should include their names, affiliations, and contact information, and reviews will include reviewer names. All papers should use the ACM double-column format, using the most recent template, without ACM copyright information and without CCS concepts. All papers will be made freely available on our website. The copyright will remain with the authors. However, we are encouraging workshop paper authors to include a CC license statement in their paper. If authors submit their paper on arXiv, they will be included in the arXiv-based Proceedings. For more information please visit our website: https://locos.codeberg.page/loco2024/. -------------------------------------------------- We welcome your submission to LOCO 2024 and are happy to answer any questions.
