: support software systems development. Its chapters will comprise a collection
: of high-quality papers covering various aspects of UML in software development.
: The book will be organized in such a way that it will be useful to researchers
: and practitioners in the area, as well as instructors teaching courses related
: to UML. Idea Group Publishing will publish this edited volume.
:
: Call for Contributions
:
: The editors invite you to submit contributions of up to 6000 words that
: addresses the issues involved in using UML for information systems development.

: EDITOR-IN-CHIEF: Prashant Palvia, Ph.D., The University of Memphis
:
: MISSION:
: The mission of the Journal of Global Information Technology Management
: (JGITM) is to be the premier journal on Global Information Technology
: Management. It is a refereed international journal that is supported by
: Global IT scholars from all over the world. JGITM will publish articles
: and reports related to all aspects of the application of information
: technology for international business. For example, it will report on
: information resource management, managerial and organizational concerns,
: educational issues, and innovative applications related to global IT.
: Very important to the journal is its emphasis on quality and relevance.
: Furthermore, the journal will disseminate this knowledge to researchers,
: practitioners, academicians, and educators all over the world on a
: timely basis. Finally, the journal is international in all respects:
: content, article authorship, readership, and the editorial board.
:
: SCOPE AND COVERAGE:
: The journal's scope is multidisciplinary. It will publish research,
: applied, and educational articles from all areas of MIS as well as
: functional IT applications that have international focus. The journal
: will also consider a variety of methodological approaches. The journal
: encourages manuscript submissions from authors all over the world, both
: from academia and industry. In addition, the journal will also include
: educational cases and reviews of MIS books that have bearing on global
: aspects. Practitioner input will be specifically solicited from
: time-to-time in the form of industry columns and CIO interviews.
:
: Articles in the journal will include, but are not limited to the
: following areas: Frameworks and models for global information systems
: (GIS), Development, evaluation and management of GIS, Electronic
: Commerce, Internet related issues, Societal impacts of IT in developing
: countries, IT and Economic development, IT Diffusion in developing
: countries, IT human resource issues, DSS/EIS/ES in international
: settings, Organizational and management structures for GIS, Transborder

: studies (both research and educational)
:
: CONTENTS OF THIS ISSUE OF JGITM (VOL. 3, NO. 2, April 2000).
:
: EDITORIAL PREFACE: Paul Cheney and Larry West, The University of Central
: Florida.
: The editors discuss the challenge of The Global IT Labor Shortage and
: proposed some practical solutions to it.
: The biggest challenge facing CIOs today is not Y2K, electronic commerce
: applications, maintaining legacy systems, systems security or any one of
: a hundred important IT issues. In our opinion, and we are not alone in
: this view, the single biggest problem in IT organizations today is
: recruiting, retaining and retraining IT professionals. Various sources
: have documented the shortage of IT professionals in the United States
: and Canada at between 346,000 and 754,000 in 1998. One study for example
: found that 10% of all U.S computer programmer / systems analyst
: positions and 17% of all computer engineer positions were vacant in
: 1998 (Information Technology Association of America, 1998).
:
: ARTICLE: INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT: IRELANDS
: COMING OF AGE WITH LESSONS FOR DEVELOPING COUNTRIES
: AUTHORS: Paul P. Tallon and Kenneth L. Kraemer, University of
: California, Irvine, U.S.A.
: ABSTRACT: The contribution of information technology (IT) to economic
: growth and development is seen as an important factor underlying the
: pace of development in many countries. While Asias tiger economies are
: often portrayed as models for economic growth, Irelands recent economic
: performance has attracted considerable attention, earning it the label,
: Europes Celtic Tiger.
: We adopt a framework of IT-led development to show how, despite having a
: weak indigenous IT sector, Ireland succeeded in creating a world-class
: industry in computer hardware, software and services. Behind this
: success lies a policy of industrialization by invitation through which
: Ireland selectively targeted foreign investment in high-tech industries
: using a menu of financial and tax-based incentives. Despite Irelands
: success, intense competition from regions such as Eastern Europe and
: Southeast Asia has forced Irish policy makers to question whether this
: policy can produce sustained economic benefits.
: Irelands response to these challenges contributes to the literature on
: IT-led development, providing valuable lessons for developing countries
: as they strive for greater economic growth.
:
: ARTICLE: STRATEGIC USES OF GLOBAL INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AMONG
: MANUFACTURING FIRMS
: AUTHOR: John C. Mc Intosh, Bentley College, U.S.A.
: ABSTRACT: This study examines how American and Korean global
: manufacturers use IT to support time-based, mass customization, and low
: cost strategies. Results indicate that different strategic objectives
: and cultural norms affect how IT is used. American firms, driven by
: considerations of short-term profitability focused on using IT to
: support a first-to-market philosophy. In addition, while todays
: firms often network with others to access needed resources and
: capabilities, American firms did not use IT as intensively as Korean
: firms to identify appropriate partners and coordinate joint activities.
: Korean firms, driven by growth considerations instead of profitability,
: used IT to implement a fast follower strategy. The lower time
: compression demands of this strategy allowed Korean firms to
: electronically partner with firms possessing needed technologies while
: focusing on their competence in efficient production.
:
: ARTICLE: YOU MUST HAVE BEEN AT A DIFFERENT MEETING: ENACTING CULTURE
: CLASH IN THE INTERNATIONAL OFFICE OF THE FUTURE
: AUTHORS: Gert Jan Hofstede, Wageningen Agricultural University,
: Netherlands
: ABSTRACT: This article introduces a new concept for exploring the design
: of IT infrastructure in transnational organizations. This concept is
: simulation gaming that uses so-called synthetic national culture
: profiles. The paper describes a game in which a telecommunication
: architecture was designed for a multinational company. It concludes that
: synthetic cultures are a powerful tool for generating awareness about
: the profound potential effects of differences in national culture within
: multinationals.
:
: THE EXPERT OPINION: The Expert Opinion : An Interview with Jamilur Reza
: Chowdhury Ph.D., FIE(B), FICE(UK), CEng(UK) Bangladesh University of
: Engineering and Technology (BUET), Bangladesh. This interview was
: conducted by Mahesh S. Raisinghani and Mahboob ur Rahman. The interview
: discusses the status of Bangladesh's Information Technology Industry.
:
: THE BOOK REVIEW: Written by Edward M. Roche, New York. He reviews Cyber

:
: WORKSHOP ON HYBRID LOGICS
: August 14-18, 2000
: (Bringing Them All Together)
:
: LAST CALL FOR PAPERS
:
: IMPORTANT:
:
: - Deadline for submission: June 1st, 2000.
:
: THEME:
:
: Modal logic suffers from a certain asymmetry: even though the basic
: semantic notion in modal languages is truth at a state, classical
: modal logics lack the expressive power to talk about the states
: themselves. Whether we think of states as intervals, geometric points,
: nodes in a feature structure, or individuals in a description, this is
: a genuine weakness.
:
: Hybrid Logics are modal languages which use "terms as formulas".
: Although they date back to the late 1960s, the last three years have
: seen a resurgence of interest, with new results in expressivity,
: interpolation, complexity, and proof techniques. It has also become
: clear that hybrid logics offer a theoretical framework for uniting the
: work of a surprisingly diverse range of research traditions.
:
: This workshop is likely to be relevant to a wide range of people,
: including those interested in description logic, feature logic, modal
: logics for information systems, temporal logic, and labelled deduction
: for modal logic. Moreover, if you have an interest in the work of the
: late Arthur Prior, note that this workshop is devoted to exploring
: ideas he first introduced 30 years ago --- it will be an ideal
: opportunity to see how his ideas have been developed in the
: intervening period.
:
: In this workshop we hope to bring together researchers and students
: from all the different fields just mentioned (and hopefully some
: others) in an attempt to explore just what they all have (and do not
: have) in common. If you're unsure whether your work is of relevant to
: the workshop, please check out the newly opened Hybrid Logic Site:
:
: http://www.illc.uva.nl/~carlos/hybrid
:
: And do not hesitate to contact the workshop organisers for more
: information. We'd be delighted to tell you more. Contact details are
: give below.
:
: SUBMISSIONS:
:
: We invite the contribution of research papers to the workshop. Please
: send electronically an extended abstract of up to 10 A4 size pages, in
: PostScript format to: carlos(a)wins.uva.nl BEFORE 1st of JUNE, 2000.
:
: Please note that all workshop contributors are required by the ESSLLI
: organizers to register for the Summer School. The deadline for early
: registration at ESSLLI is May 31st, 2000.
:
: PROCEEDINGS:
:
: Papers accepted for the workshop will be made available from the
: Hybrid Logic Site. Following the workshop, participants will be
: invited to submit their contributions for publication in a special
: issue of the Journal of Logic and Computation.

: Agents and CSCW: A Fruitful Marriage?
:
: Workshop on Deutsche Computer Supported Cooperative Work
: 2000
: (D-CSCW 2000)
: http://www.telekooperation.de/dcscw2000/
:
: Scope and Aims of the Workshop
:
: In recent years, Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW)
: has drawn great attention from both research communities and
: commercial sectors. More and more CSCW products have emerged
: widely in software markets. Furthermore, the increasing use
: of networking and the globalisation of dispersed
: organisations have posed new challenges for the development
: methodologies of CSCW systems.
: In parallel with the advances made in CSCW in recent years
: there have been interesting developments in the field of
: Distributed Artificial Intelligence, notably in the
: concepts, theories and deployment of intelligent agents as a
: means of distributing computer-based problem solving
: expertise. The application of agents to provide engineering
: design support is an active area of research. Furthermore,
: the ideas inherent in such an approach are also applicable
: to other domains, for example, support for interactive
: learning. However, many organisations, that seek to exploit
: the advantages offered through CSCW, could derive benefit
: from the integration of agents in the management and use of
: their corporate knowledge.
:
: Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
: + multi-agent macroscopic modelling of group work
: + multi-agent cooperation and coordination in social
: group work
: + multi-agent mechanisms for task decomposition,
: dispatch and synthesis in group work
: + multi-agent architectures and CSCW
: + multi-agent engineering design support
: + mobility of agents in CSCW
: + support of distributed working by agents
: + how will agents influence the work environment
: + which roles can agents play in virtual work environments
:
: Deadlines:
: June 19: Submission of Papers
: July 9: Notification of Acceptance
: August 13: Submission of Camera Ready Copy
: August 20: Distribution of pre-prints to participants
: Sept. 11-13: D-CSCW (workshop will be held on Tuesday)
:
: Publication:

: proceedings. In addition, it is anticipated that authors of
: selected papers may be invited to extend their paper, to be
: considered for subsequent publication in a special issue of
: an international journal.
:
: Attendance Numbers:
: The workshop will be limited to a maximum of 25
: participants.
:
: Criteria for Attendance:

: First Workshop on Rule-Based Constraint Reasoning and Programming
:
: Half day during July 24-28, 2000, Imperial College, London, UK
: at the First International Conference on Computational Logic (CL2000)
:
: http://www.informatik.uni-muenchen.de/~fruehwir/cl2000r.html
:
: Rule-based formalisms are ubiquitous in computer science, and even
: more so in constraint reasoning and programming. In constraint
: reasoning, algorithms are often specified using inference rules, proof
: rules, rewrite rules, sequents or logical axioms. Advanced
: programming languages like CHR, CLAIRE and ELAN allow the
: implementation both constraint solvers and programs using constraints
: in a rule-based formalism.
:
: The workshop invites papers describing ongoing work in using
: rule-based formalisms in constraint reasoning and programming. In
: particular, on specification of algorithms for solving constraints by
: rules and on implementations of constraint solvers and programs
: solving problems in a novel way using rule-based programming languages
: that go beyond constraint logic programming, as well as on analysis of
: rule-based programs and other issues related to rule-based language
: design and implementation.
:
: To submit, send an email to fruehwir(a)informatik.uni-muenchen.de with
: the subject line "CL2000 rules" containing three ASCII lines with
: title, author(s) and WWW link to compressed postscript file (5-15
: pages). Accepted papers will be published in hard-copy proceedings
: (available at the workshop) and in electronic form at the Computing
: Research Repository (CoRR).
