Fwd: JECR Special Issue: Service Operations Management in E-Commerce

---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: JECR Special Issue: Service Operations Management in E-Commerce Date: Tue, 11 Sep 2001 11:12:31 -0700 From: "Melody Kiang, Ph.D." <mkiang(a)CSULB.EDU> To: ISWORLD(a)LISTSERV.HEANET.IE Dear Colleagues, On behalf of the the Journal of Electronic Commerce Research, I am happy to announce that Vol. 2, Number 3, 2001 issue of JECR is now available at the journal's improved web site at: "http://www.csulb.edu/journal". Journal of Electronic Commerce Research Special Issue: Service Operations Management in E-Commerce The August 2001 issue of Journal of electronic commerce is a special issue for service operations management in e-commerce. Post-industrial society is a service society. Information revolution has given the concept of service a new meaning in a virtual world. This new service concept is realized in today¡¦s electronic commerce. Recently, many have started to incorporate what we have learned from service operation management into the world of electronic commerce. The two articles included in the JECR August 2001 issue represent this trend. The first paper in this issue, ¡§An Instrument for Measuring Customer Satisfaction Toward Web Sites that Market Digital Products and Services,¡¨ contributes to the research community by proposing a well-validated instrument to measure customer satisfaction in the context of e-commerce. The authors have carefully created the instrument from a detailed literature review. Then, the instrument has been through two-stage empirical testing to establish reliability and validity. Their efforts have provided foundations for other e-commerce satisfaction studies. The second paper titled ¡§Towards Data Mining Services on the Internet with a Multiple Service Provider Model: An XML Based Approach¡¨ proposes a novel way and the means of delivering service in e-commerce. The authors present a new multiple service provider model of operation for the Internet delivery of data mining services. This model has several advantages over the currently predominant approach for delivering data mining, services such as providing clients with a wider variety of options, choice of service providers and the benefits of a more competitive marketplace. From a technical perspective, the authors have developed XML DTD¡¦s to support the interaction protocols for the multiple service provider model including: specification of the task preferences of clients, specification of the functionality of data mining service providers and the exchange of information to access data and computational resources to perform the task. -------------------------------------------------------

---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: CFP: 3rd GITM Conference: DSS & KM Track Date: Mon, 10 Sep 2001 10:34:52 -0400 From: "Dr. Hamid Nemati" <nemati(a)uncg.edu> To: ISWORLD(a)LISTSERV.HEANET.IE Apologies for cross-posting; please pass on to interested colleagues and distribute to relevant lists. ______________________________________________________ CALL FOR PAPERS FOR THE TRACK Decision Support & Knowledge Management Track Chair: Hamid Nemati (Please send the track chair at nemati(a)uncg.edu an e-mail indicating your intent to submit a paper to this track) GLOBAL INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT (GITM) WORLD CONFERENCE FOR ALL "INTERNATIONAL" IS/IT RESEARCHERS, EDUCATORS AND PROFESSIONALS on June 23, 24, 25, 2002 in New York, NY, USA http://www.uncg.edu/bae/isom/gitma/gitma3.htm SUBMISSION DEADLINE: November 15, 2001 (to be received by this date). Please submit directly to the Conference Chair: Prashant Palvia. For timely processing, we have an all-electronic review process. Therefore, an electronic submission is strongly recommended (email: pcpalvia(a)uncg.edu). If not possible, please mail 4 copies to the following address and make sure it arrives by the deadline. Please include your email address along with the submission. Dr. Prashant Palvia Joe Rosenthal Excellence Professor ISOM Department Bryan School of Business & Economics University of North Carolina - Greensboro Greensboro, NC 27402-6170, USA Email: pcpalvia(a)uncg.edu Ph: 336-334-5666 Fax: 336-334-4083 http://www.uncg.edu/bae/people/palvia/ TRACK DESCRIPTION: The complexities of decisions, including the variability, interdependency and uncertainty of factors affecting those decisions, compel every manager to utilize information analysis tools for supporting business decisions. Over the last three decades, the organizational role of information technology has evolved from efficiently processing large amounts of batch transactions to providing information in support of decision-making activities. This paradigm shift is reflected in the fact that in the 1970s most IS organizations changed their name from "data processing" to "management information systems. This evolution from automating expensive manual systems to providing strategic organizational value led to the birth of Decision Support Systems (DSS). Decision support systems are interactive, computer-based systems intended to provide support to the decision makers engaged in solving various semi- to ill-structured problems involving multiple attributes, objectives and goals. DSS are becoming increasingly more critical in the daily operation of todays organizations by providing strategic organizational value through optimal resource allocation and enhanced reporting, forecasting, and prediction. However, only a fraction of the needed information exists on computers; the vast majority of a firm's intellectual assets exist as knowledge in the minds of its employees. What is needed is a new generation of knowledge-enabled systems that provides the infrastructure needed to capture, cleanse, store, organize, leverage, and disseminate not only data and information but also the knowledge of the firm. This suggests a different direction for DSS in the next decade. This new direction is based on an expanded purpose of DSS - knowledge improvement. This phenomenon is not just limited to the United States or other advanced countries, but also evident in developing countries. This track is organized to discuss all issues related to decision support systems and knowledge management in global settings. RECOMMENDED TOPICS Papers (completed or in-progress: about 20 double spaced pages), extended abstracts (completed or in-progress research: about 4-6 pages), panel and workshop proposals (2-4 pages) dealing with (but not limited to) the following topics are invited. Please note the name of this track on the cover page. Conceptual and theoretical issues Research frameworks, methods, methodologies, architectures, and infrastructure issues Use of a specific technologies, tools and techniques in managing (including identifying, capturing, structuring, storing, refining, personalizing, distributing, or applying) information and knowledge Design, development, implementation, and maintenance of DSS and knowledge management systems (IKMS) Adoption and acceptance of DSS and IKMS Outsourcing of DSS and IKMS Performance evaluation issues (including measurement scales, methodology, valuation of knowledge assets/intellectual properties, quantifying costs and benefits, etc.) Sharing, trust and coordination issues (in both traditional and virtual/networked organizations) Roles of information and knowledge managers Role/impact of decision support systems and knowledge management on organizational productivity, competitive advantage, organizational processes, organizational structures, innovation, or marketing.

Fwd: 2nd CFP - ECRJ : Electronic Commerce in Developing Countries
by Gustaf Neumann 28 Sep '01

---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: 2nd CFP - ECRJ : Electronic Commerce in Developing Countries Date: Sun, 9 Sep 2001 11:18:20 +0300 From: "Adel M. Aladwani" <adwani(a)kuc01.kuniv.edu.kw> To: ISWORLD(a)LISTSERV.HEANET.IE CALL FOR PAPERS Electronic Commerce Research Journal Special Issue: Electronic Commerce in Developing Countries The convergence between computing and data telecommunication technologies and the resultant advent of the Internet may have profound effects on developing countries similar to those already experienced and expected in the future in other countries of the world. The way developing countries respond to the many implications of the Internet, and especially those relevant to Electronic Commerce (EC), will undoubtedly have a significant influence on the social, political, cultural, and economic development of these societies. The failure of managers, administrators, and politicians in public and private organizations in these countries to understand how to exploit EC in accordance with their national culture(s) will only act as a barrier rather than an enabler of development. The purpose of this special issue of Electronic Commerce Research Journal is to provide a forum for topics addressing EC issues in developing countries. Conceptual and empirical contributions from authors around the world are strongly encouraged. This special issue intends to incorporate a wide array of EC issues in developing countries. Papers based on research from both academia and industry are encouraged. Papers dealing with (but not limited to) the following topics are invited: · Effects of EC on public- and private-sector organizations · Effects of EC on social, economic and political structures and functions · Effects of EC on national relations between developing countries · Effects of EC on relations between developing and developed countries · EC strategy issues at organizational and national levels · EC infrastructure issues · EC education and training issues · EC implementation issues · EC measurement and evaluation issues · EC ethical and legal issues · EC trust and security issues Submission Guidelines: All submissions must be in English, should represent original work of the author(s), and must not have been published/accepted for publication or currently under consideration for publication elsewhere. All contributions will be subjected to a double-blind review process. Manuscripts should be prepared according to Electronic Commerce Research Journal format (http://www.baltzer.nl/journalhome.htm/1389-5753). There is no page limit on paper submissions. Submission should be made electronically to one of the guest editors: Adel M.
