Forwarded message from [aweber(a)telematik.iig.uni-freiburg.de] sent originally on Mon, 25 Oct 1999 14:53:15 +0200 (MET DST): : Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren, : : auf der European Conference on Information Systems 2000, Wien, 3.-5. Juli, : wird es einen Track über Banking geben. Der Call for Papers benennt Themen : wie Payments, Security, Third Party Services, etc. (siehe unten). Deadline : für die Einreichung von Papieren ist der 15. November. Wir würden uns sehr : über Einreichungen von Ihnen freuen. Details finden Sie bitte auf : <http://ecis2000.wu-wien.ac.at/>. : : Mit freundlichen Grüßen : : Arnd Weber : : =============== : ECIS 2000 Track : : Banking : : Electronic Money, Payment Systems and Security : : : Objectives : : Communication technologies are maturing and communication is becoming a : commodity product. Neither the technical aspects nor the components, nor the : communication network itself are at the centre of interest for generating : future wealth. : Economic exchange activity will increasingly be based upon low cost electronic : transactions. The use of communications to provide a presence anywhere, : anytime for : access to any goods and services will be the driving force for development. : To exploit : this challenge and opportunity for banking and global financial services : the present : communication systems, namely the Internet, will have to answer to : questions on security : and trust, presently still guaranteed either by governments or by law and : customs. : Centralised security will have to be substituted by decentralised security : policies and : methods. The borderless nature of the Internet makes accountability of : particularly : financial transactions, guarantee of copyright and the protection of : property as well as : the privacy of people a real threat to the realisation of electronic : commerce. : : The issues of free-banking and competition of currencies are opposed to a : central : banking system with guaranteed value and stability of money. Electronic : payment : systems are already rationalising existing physical or cashless systems, : and in this way : raise questions of "fairness of access", "security of information and business : relationships", "tamper-proof hardware", and "control of money flow". The : changes : which have occurred in customer and internal relationships and : organisations are : relevant. Systems offering electronic money are a quantum jump ahead of plain : electronic payment systems. Cash cards in use today can be loaded by an : individual : bank or with cash, and represent access to a free-banking environment, : whe-re money : is represented by a bitstring. How can this bitstring be protected, who : guarantees its : value, and should there be interest payments on the stored value? How will : the tax : system work, and what customs do customers develop regarding their transaction : money? Is there a portefeuille of payment systems for the actual : application? Are : micropayments treated in the same way as macropayments? Will the anonymity : of cash : be a property of the past? Technologies enabling transborder push and pull : systems, : globally accepted signature systems guaranteed by trustworthy third : parties, taxation of : transborder business and banking transactions, and new businesses for : financial : institutions in an information economy are necessary for trust to become : the major : competitive factor for payment and electronic money. : : : Track Theme and Suggested Topics : : The general theme of the track on banking will focus on Electronic Payment : Systems : and electronic money. In the first case, the convergence of the many : existing standards : and functionality will be particularly focused on. Of special importance : are security : issues, particularly whether secure hardware will be the final tradeoff. : With regards to the : second topic the functions of money as a unit of measurement, of transfer : of value and : storage of value and the subsequent security requirements are of importance. : : Issues to be covered are: : : Transborder push and pull payment instruments and remote : banking-systems, : including systems for brokerage : : Stored value systems, in particular progress in tamper-resistance and : in the : efficiency of signature-based systems : : Requirements and solutions for secure authentication, non-repudiation : and : privacy in national and international finance and banking systems : : Integration of banking and other third party services for electronic : commerce : and financing, such as certification and notary services, security, : portability and : transparency in the handling of signature keys : : Issues in Internet- and multi-channel banking, including : point-of-sale, and : electronic commerce systems : : Experiences with fieldtest, prototype systems, and new services and : sy-stems. : : Programme Committee : : Günter Müller : University of Freiburg, : Germany (Chair) : : Lutz M.

[forwarded] CFP: Health Care and IS @ ECIS2000

Forwarded message from [klein(a)wi.uni-muenster.de] sent originally on Sat, 23 Oct 1999 22:54:56 +0200 (MET DST): : Call for papers for the track : : HEALTH CARE AND IS : : at the 8th European Conference on Information Systems : Vienna, Austria, July 3-5, 2000 : : Conference Web Page: http://ecis2000.wu-wien.ac.at : : PAPER SUBMISSION DEADLINE: November 15, 1999 : : GOALS AND SUGGESTED TOPICS OF THE HEALTH CARE AND IS TRACK : The track will look into IS and the transformation of health care: How is IS : used in response to the crisis in health care, does it facilitate and enable : improved relationships among the different players in the industry? How is : IS used to improve the quality of (everyday) health care provision on the : one hand and the development of treatments on the other? : : PAPERS are expected in the following areas which represent different : players' perspectives: : IS AND THE CHANGING MARKET PLACE FOR HEALTH CARE: DEREGULATION, : INTERNATIONAL HARMONIZATION, EMERGING GOVERNANCE SYSTEMS AND COMPETITION : Two forces are driving changes in the industry: : * Market : The diffusion of market mechanisms, controls and a stronger influence of : economic benchmarks are increasingly shaping the development of the : industry. In Europe, deregulation, the single market and increasing : harmonization are affecting a hitherto fragmented industry, with huge : regional and national differences. New (electronic) markets for medical : products might emerge. Mail order and over the counter sales are likely to : increase throughout Europe. : On a different level, roles and linkages among the players in the industry : are changing, e.g. focus strategy in hospitals, outsourcing of warehousing : and logistics etc. (for a theoretical framework see Kambil 1992). : * Information technology : The leverage of Internet and Intranet technology, i.e. standardized, : cost-efficient information management and communication oriented technology, : is driving the diffusion of IS in the healthcare sector. Furthermore, : document orientation and progress in related standardization, such as SGML, : XML, EDIFACT, HTML and DOM, are facilitating innovative in healthcare IS. : CLINICAL DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEMS: INFORMATION TOOLS FOR DRUG DEVELOPMENT, : MARKETING AND APPLICATION. : Information management improves the efficiency throughout the pharmaceutical : life cycle: drug development, retrieval and allocation of information, : logistical coordination, patient oriented accounting, shelf-life management. : The representation of pharmaceutical information and expert knowledge in : Decision Support Systems is likely to change the roles of pharmacists, : medical doctors and patients. : INFORMATION AND KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT FOR THE MEDICAL STAFF : Information overload and the simultaneous lack of specific information is : characteristics for the situation of medical staff. IS, in particular : distributed hypermedia systems, are portrayed as a likely remedy. Properly : designed and implemented, they can combine the built-up of huge, decentrally : maintained, data collections and customized profiles and link collections : for the individual knowledge management (cf. the vision of Vannevar Bush : 1948). : PATIENT RECORDS: STANDARDIZATION, DATA PROTECTION, MEDIA AND COMMUNICATION : INFRASTRUCTURES : A comprehensive documentation of individual patients records is a : prerequisite for efficiency improvements in a fragmented medical value : chain. Moreover it is crucial in case of emergencies to have access to the : patient record.
