These e-services aim at both economic objectives (such as enhanced competitiveness and growth) and social objectives (such as higher quality of life, better services to various groups, social networking and inclusion, environmental protection). It is important to analyze systematically these �digital cities� projects (usually including both network infrastructures and applications/e-services). Gaining knowledge from them is going to be useful for improving both design and implementation of future attempts, and also public policy making in this area. In particular, it is important to gain a deeper understanding of the main motivation and objectives of these projects, the main difficulties and challenges they faced, the business models they adopted and the role of both public organizations and private companies, and assess their social, economic and other city/municipality-related impact and value. This Special Issue of the �Telematics and Informatics� solicits original high-quality papers investigating the above issues of digital cities, with main emphasis on the following topics: - Motivation and objectives for developing broadband infrastructures and applications/e-services on them - Detailed analysis of such broadband infrastructures or electronic service development projects in municipal contexts - Adoption of applications / e-services by the public and factors affecting it - Main challenges and difficulties faced during digital cities projects - Reports on achievements, current situation analysis of digital cities projects - Mobile applications and field force automation in government based on broadband infrastructures - Assessment of social, economic and other city-related impacts of such projects - Decision-making tools and models for assisting elected representatives and city officials in �digital planning and management� - Approaches for managing digital transformation and policy support for municipalities - Business models, role of public companies and private organizations (such as municipalities and government) - Projects and initiatives specifically targeting e-Inclusion or minimization of Digital Divides, at municipal level - Specific applications and lessons learnt in developing countries or regions - Future, forward looking approaches and initiatives for digital cities Submissions Authors are invited to prepare original manuscripts of 5000 to 6000 words (excluding references), adopting the guidelines defined in the website of �Telematics and Informatics� (www.elsevier.com/wps/product/cws_home/703).

[Fwd: [isworld] Second CFP: JISE Special Issue - Impacts of Web 2.0 and Virtual World Technologies on IS Education]

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] Second CFP: JISE Special Issue - Impacts of Web 2.0 and Virtual World Technologies on IS Education Datum: Tue, 30 Dec 2008 07:18:09 -0500 Von: rea <rea(a)wmich.edu> Antwort an: rea <rea(a)wmich.edu> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> Apologies for any Cross Posting ---------------------------- http://docrea.org/jise/ Whether it's a social networking site like Facebook, a video stream delivered via YouTube, or collaborative discussion and document sharing via Google Apps, more people are using Web 2.0 technologies to communicate, express ideas, and form relationships centered around topical interests. Virtual Worlds immerse participants even deeper in technological realms rife with interaction. Instead of simply building information, people create entire communities comprised of self-built worlds and avatars centered around common interests, learning, or socialization in order to promote information exchange. Holding business meetings in Second Life is becoming commonplace, MMORPGs are becoming the entertainment venue of choice, and upcoming generations of students may find the traditional academic means of information exchange--lectures and discussions--less appealing than most, instead opting for a rich multimedia experience infused with information. With classrooms quickly filling with the Google generation accustomed to being connected to information and social networks all the time in many forms, how can we best use these technologies to transform, supplement, or even supplant current pedagogical practices? Will holding office hours in chat rooms make a difference? What about streaming classroom discussions via iTunes? How about demonstrations of complex concepts in a Virtual World so students can experiment endlessly? In this JISE special issue, we will explore these questions and more. We are looking for research studies, instructional cases, teaching tips, and other discussions that examine the role Web 2.0 and Virtual Worlds should--or perhaps should not--play within our physical, virtual, or mixed classroom environment. How can these technological tools be best used in our pedagogical toolbox? Are there instances where they are a good fit or perhaps merely an instructional band-aid? Please consider sharing your insights, research, or teaching tips as we examine the promises presented, and the perils posed, by these ever- growing innovative, immersive (perhaps invasive), and pervasive technologies. http://docrea.org/jise/ Initial submissions due: January 20, 2009 Notification to authors: March 20, 2009 Revised papers due: April 20, 2009 Notification of final results: May 14, 2009 Publication of the issue: July 2009 ---------------------------- Alan Rea Associate Professor Computer Information Systems Haworth College of Business Western Michigan University Kalamazoo, MI USA 49008-5412 rea(a)wmich.edu rea(a)acm.org The AISWorld LISTSERV is a service of the Association for Information Systems (http://www.aisnet.org).

[Fwd: [isworld] CfP BPMDS'09 in conjunction with CAISE'09]
by Gustaf Neumann 30 Dec '08

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [isworld] CfP BPMDS'09 in conjunction with CAISE'09 Datum: Tue, 30 Dec 2008 05:22:41 -0500 Von: Selmin NURCAN <nurcan(a)univ-paris1.fr> Antwort an: Selmin NURCAN <nurcan(a)univ-paris1.fr> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <isworld(a)lyris.isworld.org> Dear Colleague, Please find attached the Call for Paper of the BPMDS'09 workshop in conjunction with CAISE'09. The theme of this year is "Drivers of Business Process Development: Business, IT, Compliance". The workshop is sponsored by IFIP WG8.1 (International Federation for Information Processing Working Group 8.1) Accepted papers will be published in the workshop proceedings (joint with EMMSAD), to be published by Springer LNBIP. I will be grateful to you for advertising BPMDS'09 and inviting your colleagues and/or research students to submit their work. Season's Greetings and Happy New Year 2009, Selmin Nurcan On behalf of BPMDS'09 Organising Committee ***************************************************************** Call for Papers In Conjunction with CAiSE�09 The 10th Workshop on Business Process Modeling, Development, and Support (BPMDS'09) Drivers of Business Process Development: Business, IT, Compliance 8-9 June, Amsterdam, The Netherlands Papers submission deadline: February 18th, 2009 sponsored by IFIP WG8.1 (International Federation for Information Processing Working Group 8.1) The Call for Papers can be downloaded from the BPMDS'09 Web site http://lams.epfl.ch/conference/bpmds09 ***************************************************************** -------------8 <-------------------8<-------------------8<-------------------8<-------------------8<-------- BPMDS 2009 CALL FOR PAPERS The 10th Workshop on Business Process Modeling, Development, and Support (BPMDS'09) 8-9 June, Amsterdam, The Netherlands Papers submission deadline: February, 18th, 2009 http://lams.epfl.ch/conference/bpmds09 BACKGROUND AND AIMS: New business processes are created and existing ones evolve following different kinds of drivers or motivations. BPMDS�08 was dedicated to business process life-cycle, discussing issues such as how to streamline transitions among phases in the life-cycle of a business process (design, deployment, operation-evaluation). The next BPMDS will be devoted to the drivers related to these phases and to their transitions, and how they can be accommodated into a broader and dynamic view of the business process life-cycle. The research question will be what "drives" the wheel (the business process life cycle) when it turns to reach a moving business target with regard to market changes and continuous improvement requirements. We distinguish three groups of these drivers, which can exist separately or in any combination in real life situations. First, business objectives and goals drive the creation and evolution of business processes. Evolution of business processes can be driven by attempts to improve the achievement of business objectives (based on their measurement), or by the need to adapt to changes in these objectives. Research issues related to business drivers include their systematic identification, integration into process design and evolution, performance measurement, and others. Second, the availability of new IT systems (any kind of components-on-the-shelf) can drive both the creation and evolution of business processes. The introduction of new information systems can enforce or enable or require the design of new business process; new possibilities of business process management or assessment can drive the evolution of the processes. Research issues related to IT drivers include business process-IT alignment, process mining and others. Third, the need to comply with external standards and regulations may drive the creation of new business processes and the evolution of existing ones. Research issues related to compliance drivers include constrained process design, compliance assurance and verification, and others. There may be other drivers that do not fall in any of these categories, and they are of interest to the workshop as well. ABOUT THE WORKSHOP : The BPMDS series has produced 9 workshops from 1998 to 2008. Seven of these workshops, including the last six (BPMDS�03 BPMDS�08) were held in conjunction with CAiSE conferences. The topics addressed by the BPMDS workshops are focused on IT support for business processes. This is one of the keystones of Information Systems theory. We strongly believe that any major conference in the area of Information Systems needs to address such topics independently of the current fashion. The continued interest in these topics on behalf of the IS community is reflected by the success of the last BPMDS workshops and the recent emergence of new conferences devoted to the theme. The goals, format, and history of BPMDS can be found on the web site: http://www.ibissoft.se/bpmds.html TOPICS FOR DISCUSSION : The discussion will address the following main questions: What are the drivers or factors that initiate/demand change in business processes How to cope with/introduce changes required by different drivers How to discover that it is time for a change How to discover that change has already happened (uncontrollable changes), and there is a need to explicitly change process definitions/operational instructions. Specific issues related to these main questions include but are not limited to: Specific drivers and how they affect the business processes Assessing the extent to which business process initiatives achieve their goals Methodologies for business process design to follow specific drivers Methodologies for goal-oriented process design and evolution Compliance-oriented business process design and evolution Business-IT alignment through business processes Shareholder, stakeholder, customer and market requirements on business processes Assessing the impacts of IT market power, IT market evolution, IT standards on - business processes - business strategy - IT strategy Assessing the impacts of IT Governance on business processes and IT processes The role of process mining in business process evolution SUBMISSIONS: Papers submission deadline: February 18th, 2009 Prospective workshop participants are invited to submit a paper related to one or more of the main topics. The paper selection will be based upon the relevance of a paper to the main topics, as well as upon its quality and potential to generate relevant discussion. Three kinds of submissions are possible. (1) Full papers of up to 13 pages in LNCS format (please follow the instructions at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html). (2) Short position papers of up to 6 pages, devoted to research in progress or to visionary ideas. (3) Industrial experience papers of up to 6 pages (see guidelines in http://www.ibissoft.se/users/ilia/exp_guidelines.htm).
