Fwd: Conference announcement - FM 1 New Definitions: Value, Community, Space
by Gustaf Neumann 18 Jul '01

18 Jul '01

---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: Conference announcement - FM 1 New Definitions: Value, Community, Space Date: Wed, 18 Jul 2001 12:35:23 +0200 From: Bernhard Krieger <bernhard.krieger(a)infonomics.nl> To: ISWORLD(a)LISTSERV.HEANET.IE FM 1 NEW DEFINITIONS: VALUE COMMUNITY SPACE November 4-6, Heerlen/Maastricht, The Netherlands http://www.infonomics.nl/newdefinitions/ The impact on society of the technologies of "digitisation" has transcended the limits of any single discipline. It is universal and ubiquitous, affecting everything. But how does this digitisation affect our basic concepts about society - such as value, community, law, space? This conference will bring together the world's leading thinkers and doers in various fields - from anthropology to law, economics to information technology - to ask: What, if anything, is new about the way we redefine our understanding of these concepts? Topics covered include: ---------------------- - notions of value, non-monetary economic activity, - measurement without prices, free software - the meaning of money, electronic currencies - communities, social networks - reputation, trust and identity - formal and informal law, dissappearing borders and Internet jurisdiction - space and navigation - political space, government, new media and freedom - geographical space, access, impact and inequality Format and speakers ------------------- This conference is uniquely designed to contrast opinions from different disciplines in sessions linked by common themes: Value, Community, Space. A special Crosstalk session each day brings together participants from the different themes in debate, to elicit a broader understanding of the issues that face us. The conference emerges from First Monday's reputation as a source of quality ideas and research on digitisation and society. Beginning with keynote presentations from two of First Monday's well-known editorial board members: Esther Dyson and Anthony Rutkowski, this conference draws on First Monday's long list of authors, some of the foremost thinkers in their fields. Confirmed speakers include Wilfred Dolfsma, International Institute of Infonomics Paul Duguid, Xerox Palo Alto Research Center Kasper Edwards, Technical University Denmark Andreas Harsono, Institute for Studies of Freeflow of Information, Jakarta Leo van Hove, Vrije Universiteit Brussel Bernardo Huberman, Hewlett-Packard Sand Hill Labs Bernt Hugenholtz, Institute for Information Law, Amsterdam University Christopher Kelty, Rice University, Houston Bonnie Nardi, Agilent Technologies Inc Bruce Perens, Open Source evangelist, Hewlett-Packard, David Post, Temple University School of Law Howard Rheingold, author, "The Virtual Community" Richard Rogers, University of Amsterdam Richard Wiggins, Michigan State University Who should attend ----------------- This conference will offer insights into issues that are critical to economic, social and technological development in Europe as well as worldwide. It will appeal to everyone concerned with the emerging understanding of digitization and its impact on society, policy and business. We expect as participants academics, corporate officers, government policy makers, thinkers and activists from around the world. Registration ------------ Online registration and hotel reservation forms, as well as the conference programme are available at http://www.infonomics.nl/newdefinitions/ The conference is jointly organised by First Monday - the peer reviewed journal of the Internet (www.firstmonday.org) and the International Institute of Infonomics (www.infonomics.nl).

Fwd: CALL FOR PAPERS
by Gustaf Neumann 17 Jul '01

17 Jul '01

---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: CALL FOR PAPERS Date: Mon, 16 Jul 2001 17:28:12 -0400 From: John Rockart <jrockart(a)MIT.EDU> To: ISWORLD(a)LISTSERV.HEANET.IE CALL FOR PAPERS MISQ EXECUTIVE ~ a publication of MIS Quarterly ~ ~ sponsored by the Kelley School of Business, Indiana University ~ (This call is being repeated since several people have said it arrived in a garbled state) Call for Papers ( also available at <http://www.people.vcu.edu/~aslee/MISQE-call-for-papers.htm> ) 19 June 2001 The editor-in-chief, Jack Rockart, and the senior editors, Cynthia Beath, Allen Lee, Jeanne Ross, and Michael Vitale, of the new journal MISQ Executive are inviting submissions. The mission of MISQ Executive is to encourage practice-based research in the information systems field and to disseminate the results of that research in a manner that makes its relevance and utility readily apparent to both academic and non-academic readers. MISQ Executive will pursue this mission by publishing academic research in a format targeting senior managers. Executives already have access to many sources of knowledge about information systems, but MISQ Executive will differentiate itself from other forms of IS practitioner literature by publishing articles, case studies, and research reports that are theoretically and methodologically sound, and that focus the reader's attention on their rich stories, unique insights, and useful conceptual frameworks. MISQ Executive is soliciting submissions of articles for publication in the following departments: **Executive Research. Executive Research articles will present original research and offer lessons, frameworks, explanations, and recommendations relevant to practice. Sloan Management Review provides a model for these articles. Unlike much academic literature, these articles need not emphasize their theoretical roots or describe the methods used, but they will identify related literature that enriches their findings and recommendations for the interested reader. **Case Research. Case Research articles will provide rich stories of individual organizations' management and technological initiatives. These articles will not only tell the story, but also provide analyses of the events and their outcomes. The annual SIM competition papers published in MIS Quarterly provide good examples of case research articles. **Research Reports. A Research Report will summarize findings and insights from a recently completed but as yet unpublished research study, including those studies eventually intended for publication in traditional academic journals. The objective of Research Reports is to provide timely and generalizable observations, feedback, and reflections on relatively new phenomena and issues in the information systems arena. A paper suitable for Research Reports would move the research community forward on research in a new area and give practitioners insights into new "hot" areas. Research Reports may, in some cases, be brief (approximately 2 pages) summaries of findings from a just-completed research project, where readers might contact authors for additional details. In other cases, research reports might provide much more detailed findings. **Research Digest. Research Digest articles will revisit research already published in MIS Quarterly or other academic journals and reframe the research specifically for practitioners who are likely to find the results of the research relevant to current practice. These articles will be rewritten for a practitioner audience in a manner that focuses on managerial practice rather than theory. MISQ Executive intends to be the premiere IS research journal targeting a managerial audience. It aims to emphasize practice-based research as a worthy and important academic pursuit. Its target audience will include both practitioners and researchers, so that the journal can stimulate ongoing discussions at the intersection of research and practice. Educators may also find its articles to be a useful way to introduce students to concepts or frameworks from MIS research. Unlike the MIS Quarterly review process, the MISQ Executive review process will rarely engage authors in a long developmental process. The MISQ Executive review process will typically involve an accept/reject decision or a single revision prior to an accept/reject decision. Lengthy, "value adding" review cycles will not be the norm. The review process is as follows: 1. Every submission will be screened for review readiness by a senior editor (SE) or the editor-in-chief (EIC). The EIC or one of the SEs will be designated as responsible for managing the submission through the review process (henceforth, the "managing SE"). 2. After passing the screening, the submission will go to at least (but generally, no more than) two members of the editorial board who will serve as reviewers. (However, for the first two issues of MISQ Executive, the reviewers will most likely consist of the other SEs and the EIC). They, in turn, may seek outside persons to be additional reviewers, but the expectation is for this option to be used very rarely. 3. Authors may request (subject to the approval of the managing SE) a review process that is double blind (so that the reviewers and authors do not know each other's identities) or a review process that is open (so that all reviewers and authors in the manuscript's review process know each others' identities). 4. Generally, there will be a quick accept or reject decision on submissions. The editorial board members reviewing the manuscript may discuss their reactions to a manuscript and write a single, joint recommendation to the managing SE, who will make the final decision on the manuscript and communicate with the author. Authors should submit their manuscripts electronically in the form of a single Word or WordPerfect file (including all tables, figures, and diagrams) attached to an e-mail to submit(a)misqe.org. The e-mail should: 1. list the name(s) and e-mail address(es) of the author(s), 2. identify the corresponding author, 3. indicate the department to which the manuscript is being submitted (Executive Research, Case Research, Research Reports, or Research Digest), 4. nominate one or more of the SEs (Cynthia Beath, Allen Lee, Jeanne Ross, or Michael Vitale) or the EIC (Jack Rockart) to manage the review process for the manuscript and to make the final accept/reject decision on it, and 5. indicate whether the author prefers a blind or open review process. Authors will transfer the copyright of their articles to MISQ Executive, but will retain the right to distribute copies of their articles themselves for educational and research purposes. MISQ Executive: A Print Journal, Distributed Electronically The first two issues of MISQ Executive will be distributed as supplements to MIS Quarterly. MIS Quarterly subscribers will automatically receive, at no cost, the first two issues of MISQ Executive. In addition, the first two issues as well as all subsequent issues of MISQ Executive will be made available in the form of .pdf files that, when printed, will have an appearance similar to articles published in MIS Quarterly, where the visual appeal of MISQ Executive's articles may be enhanced. Pages will be numbered consecutively within issues. There will be four issues every year. These features will distinguish MISQ Executive from electronic journals which only display their articles in html format. MISQ Executive will not be an electronic journal, but will be a print journal that is distributed electronically. The expectation is that most readers will subscribe to MISQ Executive electronically. However, we expect that paper copies of articles and bound issues will be available, at a cost to be determined. The MISQ Executive website will soon be available at www.misqe.org.

Special Issue of the Journal of Strategic Information Systems Call for Papers Trust in the Digital Economy The concept of "trust" is becoming a more critical and visible success element of organizations as they become more information technology intensive in terms of their strategy, structure, business processes, and intra and interorganizational relationships. Trust is essential in nearly any business practice and innovation that involves information technology: distributed systems, virtual organizations and teams, competences built on intangible assets such as knowledge, electronic commerce, and so on. For example, trust is essential for 1. Transacting with customers in electronic environments and managing their privacy . 2. Increasing knowledge sharing in IT enabled organizations (e.g., virtual teams, virtual organizations). 3. Inter-organizational collaborative networks and outsourcing relationships 4. Distributive IT architectures (e.g., peer to peer architectures) There remains untapped potential for strategic IT research to advance knowledge by developing, testing, corroborating, and extending theories in the area of trust in digital environments. We invite original scholarly works dealing with issues of trust and information systems that advance our knowledge either theoretically or empirically on the role and value of trust in IT enabled business practices and innovations. We are particularly interested in contributions on the creation, evolution, antecedents, consequences, and breakdowns of trust in digital environments. We are open to any of the theoretical schools or perspectives of trust that exist. We invite research based on diverse theoretical perspectives, including organizational behavior and theory, strategic management, sociology, psychology, economics, political science, and computer science. We also encourage and welcome contributions from a wide range of methodological approaches. The purpose of this special issue is to stimulate theoretical and empirical research on the role and value of trust in IT-enabled competitive strategies, structures, business processes, and intra- an inter-organizational relationships in the contemporary business environments. While there are many interesting and important research issues and questions, we highlight a few below. Authors are encouraged to raise other issues as well and focus their attention on particular industries or industry sectors. Some of the questions include: * How and why does trust matter in digital environments? * How is trust created and how does it evolve in digital environments? * What role do information technologies play in increasing trust between parties? * How can the value and impacts of information technologies on trust be assessed? * How do concepts of trust relate to the information technology development tools and development environments? * What are the basis of trust relationships in electronic commerce models (B-C relationships and B-B marketplaces? * What organizational designs, structures, and processes are likely to promote trust? * What is the role of trust in Information technology theories? Clearly, there are many other interesting research questions related to the special issue theme. Submissions will be handled by one of the Special Issue editors. Sirkka Jarvenpaa, University of Texas, Austin. Phone: (512) 471-1751. E-mail: Sirkka.Jarvenpaa(a)bus.utexas.edu V. Sambamurthy, University of Maryland, College Park. Phone: (301) 405-8645.

---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: JECR Special edition Date: Fri, 13 Jul 2001 21:45:43 +0100 From: Ashok <ranchhod(a)BTINTERNET.COM> To: ISWORLD(a)LISTSERV.HEANET.IE May Edition of Journal of e-Commerce Research http://www.csulb.edu/web/journals/jecr/ Guest Editor Prof. Ashok Ranchhod, Southampton Business School, East Park Terrace, Southampton, SO14 0RH, Tel : 023 80 319541 home e-mail: ranchhod(a)btinternet.com This edition contains some interesting papers on E-commerce from a range of different global perspectives. Paper 1 A Conceptual Foundation for Versatile E-Commerce Platforms Prof. Dr. Ulrich Frank, Institut fuer Wirtschaftsinformatik, Universitaet Koblenz-Landau Rheinau 1, 56075 Koblenz, Visitor Address; Rammsweg 1, Tel: 49-261-287-2522 E-Mail: ulrich.frank(a)uni-koblenz.de This paper looks at how business processes can be realigned by the utilisation of powerful information systems for e-commerce. The article is directed at object-oriented modeling of products that are offered on e-commerce websites. A powerful approach is mapped out, based in part on the use of meta concepts. The author originated this approach within the design of a reference model for e-commerce platforms on the Internet. Paper 2 Adoption of On-line Trading in the Hong Kong Financial Market Adela Lau and Jerome Yen, Department of Systems Engineering and Engineering Management The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR smlau, jyen(a)se.cuhk.edu.hk and Patrick Y. K. Chau School of Business The University of Hong Kong pchau(a)business.hku.hk This paper considers the issues affecting investor adoption of on-line trading in the Hong Kong financial market. The system looked at provides straight-through trading for investors rather than order routing systems that forwards orders from a broker firm to the appropriate market. This paper focuses on the social/organizational perspective by using a research model based on the Decomposed Version Theory of Planned Behavior (DTPB) to identify the factors that affect investors adoption of on-line trading. A correlation analysis is performed to investigate whether the hypothesized attributes, variables, and belief structure are correlated with each other. Paper 3 Collaborative Commerce: The Role of Intermediaries in e-Collaboration Susan A. Sherer ,Professor, Lehigh University, College of Business and Economics, 621 Taylor Street Bethlehem, Pa. 18015, 610-758-3424 , sas6(a)lehigh.edu Bill Adams, President and CEO, G5 Technologies, Inc., Cherry Hill, NJ 08034, 856-354-9454 b.adams(a)g5technologies.com A model for implementing collaborative commerce in which independent companies form temporary alliances by combining their capabilities and capacity to meet market needs is proposed. Lessons from a case study of one of the earliest tests of agile collaboration among small firms, the Agile Web, Inc. guides implementation. The study illustrates that small firm owners may not have the expertise, time, or inclination to initiate new opportunities outside their existing markets, nor can they effectively manage across unfamiliar enterprises. An intermediary or a domain expert is required whose major responsibilities include: the identification of market opportunities, forming collaborative teams, and project managing the resulting virtual enterprise. Internet enabled information systems enhance the intermediaries productivity, enabling speedy formation, design, and operation of these alliances. Paper 4 Inhibitors to EDI Adoption in small businesses: An Empirical Investigation Patrick Y.K. Chau, School of Business, The University of Hong Kong, Pokfulam, Hong Kong, Tel: (852) 2859 1025, Pchau(a)business.hku.hk While electronic data interchange (EDI) has been discussed in the literature as a technology that can provide several advantages, both strategic and operational, to its adopters, the adoption rate, especially that of small businesses, has not been as high as predicted. The question is why? Based on data collected from more than four hundred and sixty non-EDI adopters, these results suggest that the three most significant inhibitors to EDI adoption in small businesses are all related to the degree of organizational readiness, rather than to those factors related to the costs and benefits of adopting the technology or the influence exerted by external parties such as the government, industrial partners or EDI vendors. ___________________________________________________________________ | The Communications of AIS and The Journal of AIS are electronic | publications sponsored by the Association for Information Systems | JAIS: http://jais.aisnet.org/ - CAIS: http://cais.aisnet.org/ |----------------------- ISWorld Net Footer ------------------------ | Need help with ISWorld? -> http://isds.bus.lsu.edu/cvoc/isworld/ | If you can't find an answer contact isworld_manager(a)cornell.edu |___________________________________________________________________ -------------------------------------------------------

At the core of this revolution is the ability to effectively and efficiently share and exchange information virtually with anyone anytime anywhere. Yet, it is very hard to keep up to date with the ever-increasing sophistication of the tools and techniques available at the dawn of the 21st century for building the future information society. Industrial, commercial, educational, and information society institutions and organizations whose activities rely more and more on information technology cannot afford to ignore the latest technological and infrastructural development and trends of the Internet. Business to consumer, business to business, and business to government transactions, business intelligence, decision support at every level of the enterprise are conducted competitively only when they tap into the information resources offered by the World Wide Web and when they leverage the latest tools and techniques available. IIWAS2001 aims to provide a forum for gathering, discussion, and exchange of ideas and information by researchers, students, and Web-related business people on the issues and challenges brought on by Internet technology for the intelligent integration of information. The conference technical sessions will be organized around four major themes: information integration systems, web engineering, E-commerce and M-commerce, and intelligent information retrieval. The technical sessions will include presentations of refereed research and position papers and invited talks by leading experts, tutorials, panel discussions, and product exhibits. Topics of Interest The conference solicits full-length research or position papers on relevant subjects for the aim and themes of the conference. The following is a suggested, not necessarily exhaustive, list of topics of interest and relevance to the conference. 1. Information Systems Integration * Schema and Data Integration * Enterprise Security * Distributed Component Architectures * Metadata Management * Case Studies * Transaction and Query Processing in Distributed Information Systems * Integration Architectures 2.
