In 2019, all attendees were encouraged to submit their work to the TMS journals Integrating Materials and Manufacturing Innovation and Metallurgical and Materials Transactions A, which will be publishing topical collections on Integrated Computational Materials Engineering (ICME). These collections take the place of a traditional conference proceedings publication. Only submissions from the 5th World Congress on Integrated Computational Materials Engineering (ICME 2019) attendees were considered for these collections. Participants in ICME 2019 have been strongly encouraged to contribute to this effort.

Proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Porous Metals and Metallic Foams (MetFoam 2019)
MetFoam 2019 is the 11th edition of the biannual International Conference on Porous Metals and Metallic Foams; it was heled in Dearborn, Michigan, USA between August 20 and 23, 2019. Previous editions were held in various cities around the world starting in Bremen, Germany in 1999. This conference is the largest cross-disciplinary, international technical meeting focused exclusively on the production, properties, and applications of these lightweight multifunctional porous materials. In Dearborn, a total of 115 presentations were delivered at the conference by participants from 17 countries. Many participants travelled long distances to present and attend the conference. Students delivered 40% of the presentations. Emerging areas such as additive manufacturing and freeze casting, as well as nanoporous materials, cellular materials, and metallic metamaterials were covered by some of the presenters. The proceedings volume of MetFoam 2019 is the culmination of several months of work, which included the preparation of the papers by the authors, editing, and reviewing. The papers collected in this volume provide a representative snapshot of the research activity in the field. It is my sincere hope that this proceedings volume will remain a valuable record of MetFoam 2019, and that it will serve as a reference for researchers interested in porous metals and metallic foams. I would like to thank the reviewers and the session chairs for volunteering their precious time and effort. The International Scientific Board and the Steering Committee of MetFoam 2019 provided indispensable input and guidance throughout the planning of the conference. Thanks are also due to Kelcy Wagner and Trudi Dunlap from our organization partner The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society (TMS) for their assistance in the production of the proceedings volume, as well as for their vital hard work during the organization phase of the conference. Certainly, a special thanks go to our sponsors and exhibitors for making the event possible.

Tang, Haixu (Ed.)This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 27th Annual International Conference on Research in Computational Molecular Biology, RECOMB 2023, held in Istanbul, Turkey, from April 16–19, 2023. The 11 regular and 33 short papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 188 submissions. The papers report on original research in all areas of computational molecular biology and bioinformatics.more » « less

There have been numerous efforts documenting the effects of open science in existing papers; however, these efforts typically only consider the author’s analyses and supplemental materials from the papers. While understanding the current rate of open science adoption is important, it is also vital that we explore the factors that may encourage such adoption. One such factor may be publishing organizations setting open science requirements of submitted arti- cles: encouraging researchers to adopt more rigorous reporting and research practices. For example, within the education technology discipline, the ACM Conference on Learning @ Scale (L@S) has been promoting open science practices since 2018 through a Call For Pa- pers statement. The purpose of this study was to replicate previous papers within the proceedings of L@S and compare the degree of open science adoption and robust reproducibility practices to other conferences in education technology without a statement on open science. Specifically, we examined 93 papers and documented the open science practices used. We then attempted to reproduce the results with intervention from authors to bolster the chance of suc- cess. Finally, we compared the overall adoption rates to those from other conferences in education technology. Our cursory review sug- gests that researchers at L@S were more knowledgeable in open science practices, such as preregistration or preprints, compared to the researchers who published in International Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Education and the International Conference on Educational Data Mining as they were less likely to say they were unfamiliar with the practices. However, the overall adoption of open science practices was significantly lower with only 1% of papers providing open data, 5% providing open materials, and no papers with a preregistration. Based on speculation, the low adoption rates maybe due to 20% of the papers not using a dataset, at-scale datasets and materials that were unable to be released to avoid security issues or sensitive data leaks, or that data were being used in ongoing research and are not considered complete enough for release by the authors. All openly accessible work can be found in an Open Science Framework projectmore » « less

While understanding the current rate of open science adoption is important, it is also vital that we explore the factors that may encourage such adoption. One such factor may be publishing organizations setting open science requirements for submitted articles: encouraging researchers to adopt more rigorous reporting and research practices. For example, within the education technology discipline, theACM Conference on Learning @ Scale (L@S) has been promoting open science practices since 2018 through a Call For Papers statement. The purpose of this study was to replicate previous papers within the proceedings of L@S and compare the degree of open science adoption and robust reproducibility practices to other conferences in education technology without a statement on open science. Specifically, we examined 93 papers and documented the open science practices used. We then attempted to reproduce the results with invitation from authors to bolster the chance of success. Finally, we compared the overall adoption rates to those from other conferences in education technology. Although the overall responses to the survey were low, our cursory review suggests that researchers at L@S might be more familiar with open science practices compared to the researchers who published in the International Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Education (AIED) and the International Conference on Educational Data Mining (EDM): 13 of 28 AIED and EDM responses were unfamiliar with preregistrations and 7 unfamiliar with preprints, while only 2 of 7 L@S responses were unfamiliar with preregistrations and 0 with preprints. The overall adoption of open science practices at L@S was much lower with only 1% of papers providing open data, 5% providing open materials, and no papers had a preregistration.

Montiel, M; Agustín-Aquino, M; Gómez, F; Kastine, J; Lluis-Puebla, E; Milam, B. (Ed.)This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Mathematics and Computation in Music, MCM 2022, held in Atlanta, GA, USA, in June 2022. The 29 full papers and 8 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 45 submissions. The papers feature research that combines mathematics or computation with music theory, music analysis, composition, and performance. They are organized in Mathematical Scale and Rhythm Theory: Combinatorial, Graph Theoretic, Group Theoretic and Transformational Approaches; Categorical and Algebraic Approaches to Music; Algorithms and Modeling for Music and Music-Related Phenomena; Applications of Mathematics to Musical Analysis; Mathematical Techniques and Microtonalitymore » « less
