Fwd: [WI] CfP for the AMCIS 2010 minitrack on "Information Systems Success & Benchmarking" / opportunity for fast track publication in BPMJ

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] CfP for the AMCIS 2010 minitrack on "Information Systems Success & Benchmarking" / opportunity for fast track publication in BPMJ Datum: Mon, 18 Jan 2010 09:07:44 +0100 Von: Nils.Urbach(a)ebs.edu An: wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de (Apologies for cross-postings of this announcement.) ************************************************* CALL FOR PAPERS 16th Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS 2010) August 12 - 15, 2010 (Thursday-Sunday) Swissôtel Lima (http://www.swissotel.com/EN/Destinations/Peru/Swissotel+Lima/HOTEL+HOME/Hot…) Track: Performance and Measurement Minitrack: Information Systems Success & Benchmarking Annual worldwide spending on information technology (IT) has been increasing for many years. By 2010, International Data Cooperation expects the total expenditure on IT to reach 1.48 trillion US dollars (IDC 2007). Simultaneously, however, a greater number of information systems (IS) failures are still emerging. A questionnaire-based survey carried out in 2006 in the USA indicated that only 62% of software projects were considered successful (Verner et al. 2006). The measurement of investments and developed systems' success, as well as the paradox of high investments and low productivity returns ("productivity paradox") therefore remains a top concern for both practitioners and researchers (Brynjolfsson 1993). During the last two and a half decades, research on measuring IS success - the clarification of an important dependent variable in IS research - has been a popular stream of research. A number of models have been proposed in attempts to define IS success and identify the various causes of success or failure respectively. Complementary, the benchmarking method allows for an external perspective on the unit of analysis and therefore for an inter-organizational comparison. Thus, organizations are able to assess costs and benefits of IS with respect to a peer group. In addition, benchmarking establishes standards as well as a shared understanding and common procedures. Researchers and practitioners interested in submitting papers to this minitrack are encouraged to present research into strategies, methodologies, and stories that relate to assess and benchmark IS. In addition, this minitrack will be used to explore the bodies of performance measurements that define the current state of research in measuring IS success. Topics and research areas include, but are not limited to: * Frameworks and models for assessing IS success/effectiveness * Measuring IS success/effectiveness in global organizations and globally dispersed communities * Impact of strategic, organizational, process-related, cultural, and other issues on IS success * Critical discussion of existing approaches (D&M IS Success Model, TAM, etc.) * IS success factors and key performance indicators * Benefits management/measurement * Benchmarking initiatives comparing IS across different organizations and industries * Exploring security system success and security benchmarking * Cost and Benefit Measurements of Privacy and Security * Empirical studies evaluating different topics and kinds of IS such as - Customer Relationship Management Systems - Project (Portfolio) Management Systems - Knowledge Management Systems - Decision Support Systems - Collaborative Systems - Enterprise Systems - Management topics (e.g. IS strategies, IS governance) - IT service management frameworks * Case studies of IS success and performance evaluation * System Requirements lead to System Success Authors of selected papers will be invited to prepare enhanced versions for fast track journal publication in the Business Process Management Journal (BPMJ) special issue on "Information systems evaluation and benchmarking for business performance improvement" (http://info.emeraldinsight.com/products/journals/call_for_papers.htm?id=1870).

Estimates of the proportion of unstructured data in organizations are staggeringanalysts estimate that 80 percent of the data is unstructured. Analysts have also observed that the major drivers for unstructured data growth are Microsoft Office, email attachments, and backup and archival, as well as the generation of multiple and distributed copies of data. In particular, the Web is a primary unstructured information source for nearly every knowledge worker. Evidently, organizations that rely solely on structured, record-oriented data have incomplete information. In recent years, there is a growing interest in accessing unstructured data and utilizing them, often together with structured data. Applications vary from counter-terrorism and biomedical information extraction to business intelligence, customer relationship management, and more. Although they have enormous potential for improving the completeness of information in particular and its quality in general, unstructured data introduce numerous new challenges for data and information quality research. This mini-track centers on such problems. We welcome papers that address technical or managerial data quality challenges and solutions for fulfilling the potential of unstructured data. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following list: - Data quality on the Web - Quality assessment methods - Reconciliation of comparable sources - Social aspects of data quality - Reusing and repurposing unstructured data - Governance of unstructured data - Cost and benefit assessments - Scalability and scalable solutions --- Journal Publication ---- Extended versions of outstanding papers will be fast-tracked to ACM JDIQ (http://jdiq.acm.org/). Selected authors will be invited to submit an extended version of their paper to a special issue/section in International Journal of Data Mining, Modelling and Management (IJDMMM) (www.inderscience.com/ijdmmm) . ---- Submission Process ---- Full paper submissions must be made electronically through the AMCIS Manuscript Central submission system, by March 1, 2010.

Health information systems are critical to containing costs and improving the quality of medical service delivery. This is a world-wide concern. As healthcare costs continue to rise, information technology is touted as âthe solutionâ for reducing overall costs while not adversely affecting patient care. However, a prerequisite is high-quality information and its delivery especially for Electronic Health Records (EHRs) and eHealth. The success of EHRs and ehealth will be closely tied to success in achieving high levels of information quality. This mini track deals with the impact of and independencies of information quality on EHRs and ehealth. Papers, panels, and case studies are solicited. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: (1) Impact and Role of IQ on EHRs, Health Information Exchanges (HIE), and eHealth, (2) Standards for EHRs, (3) Application of knowledge management techniques, (4) Application of data warehouses and data mining, and (5) Database and IT architectures for eHealth systems, to ensure data privacy, security, and to provide data integration. --- JOURNAL PUBLICATION ---- Extended versions of outstanding papers will be fast-tracked to ACM JDIQ ( http://jdiq.acm.org/ ). ---- Submission Process ---- Full paper submissions must be made electronically through the AMCIS Manuscript Central submission system ( http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/amcis2010 ), by March 1st 2010.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] 2nd CFP: AMCIS Minitrack on Data and Information Quality in Decision Making Datum: Sun, 17 Jan 2010 10:28:44 -0500 Von: Irit Askira-Gelman <askira(a)cox.net> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org ================================================================ 16th Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS) Track: Data and Information Quality Minitrack: DATA AND INFORMATION QUALITY IN DECISION MAKING August 12-15, 2010, Lima, Peru http://www.amcis2010.org ================================================================ Models of decision making, mainly normative models of decision making, point to the critical role of information in this process. This mini-track centers on the relationship between the quality of the information that is employed in the decision-making process on one hand, and, on the other hand, the product of the decision, other aspects of the decision process, the consequences of the decision, and/or its value. The ultimate goal of this research is to produce solutions that bring under control and mitigate the negative effects of poor information quality, i.e., improve decisions both subjectively and objectively. Papers in this mini-track will aim to: -- Extend the existing understanding of the above relationships in a chosen setting -- Propose a new artifact(s) (e.g., a concept, model, method, system implementation) that promises a new solution -- Examine the value of a previously proposed artifact -- Refine a previously proposed artifact We welcome original research papers regardless of decision domain, decision process, or research methodology. Since related problems have been studied in numerous problem domains and diverse scientific disciplines, we encourage authors to explore this rich literature and benefit from it. --- JOURNAL PUBLICATION ---- Extended versions of outstanding papers will be fast-tracked to ACM JDIQ ( http://jdiq.acm.org/ ). ---- Submission Process ---- Full paper submissions must be made electronically through the AMCIS Manuscript Central submission system, by March 1, 2010.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] new journal: "Semantic Web" by IOS Press Datum: Fri, 15 Jan 2010 22:39:44 -0500 Von: Pascal Hitzler <pascal.hitzler(a)wright.edu> An: Krzysztof Janowicz <janowicz(a)uni-muenster.de> Announcement of a new journal Semantic Web – Interoperability, Usability, Applicability Publisher: IOS Press ISSN: 1570-0844 http://www.semantic-web-journal.net/ Scope The journal Semantic Web – Interoperability, Usability, Applicability brings together researchers from various fields which share the vision and need for more effective and meaningful ways to share information across agents and services on the future internet and elsewhere. As such, Semantic Web technologies shall support the seamless integration of data, on-the-fly composition and interoperation of Web services, as well as more intuitive search engines. The semantics – or meaning – of information, however, cannot be defined without a context, which makes personalization, trust, and provenance core topics for Semantic Web research. New retrieval paradigms, user interfaces, and visualization techniques have to unleash the power of the Semantic Web and at the same time hide its complexity from the user. Based on this vision, the journal welcome contributions ranging from theoretical and foundational research over methods and tools to descriptions of concrete ontologies and applications in all areas. We especially welcome papers which add a social, spatial, and temporal dimension to Semantic Web research, as well as application-oriented papers making use of formal semantics. The journal is peer-reviewed and will be published quarterly. IOS Press is a leading international publisher of scientific books and journals in many fields including computer& communications sciences and especially also the Semantic Web. Submissions The journal invites submissions on all topics related to the Semantic Web. Submissions can fall in one of the following categories. * Full papers – containing original research results. Results previously published at conferences may be submitted as extended versions. * Survey articles – full-length papers surveying the state of the art on core Semantic Web topics. * Descriptions of ontologies – short papers describing ontology modeling and creation efforts. * Application reports – short papers describing deployed applications of Semantic Web technologies. * Reports on tools and systems – short papers describing mature Semantic Web related tools and systems. Review process The journal uses an open and transparent review process. Submitted manuscripts are posted on the journal homepage and are publicly available. In addition to solicited reviews, public reviews can be made by any researcher. Reviews and review responses are posted on the journal homepage. All reviewers will be acknowledged in the final printed version. While we encourage reviewers to participate in the open and transparent review process, it is also be possible to submit anonymous reviews.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] Call for Papers PACIS2010 Human Behavior and IT/IS Track Datum: Sat, 16 Jan 2010 16:27:31 +0800 Von: Chao-Min Chiu <cmchiu(a)mis.nsysu.edu.tw> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org Human Behavior and IT/IS Track Description: In response to the increasingly competitive and knowledge-intensive environments, organizations develop more complex forms and structures by leveraging information technology (IT). Consequently, the inter-relationships between IT, individuals and groups become increasingly complex. It is of great significance and interest for researchers to unveil how human behavior and social context may affect the development, adoption, implementation, and use of various forms of IT. We invite papers that test and extend our current understanding of the issues in this area. This track focuses on the individual, group and organizational levels of analysis in the adoption, use, and effects of IT/IS. Possible topics include, but are not limited to: 1. New theoretical perspectives that can help us better understand the intertwined nature of social factors and IT/IS. 2. Human and social factors in IT/IS development, adoption, deployment and use. Cultural factors for development, adoption, deployment and use of IT/IS. 3. The social and behavioral impacts of Web 2.0 in organizations. 4. Organizational and human factors and the success of virtual teams. 5. The impact of social media (networking) web sites on human behavior, organizations, society, and IT development. 6. The relationships between indicators of social capital and IT/IS use. 7. Online and off-line interactions and the development of social relationships. 8. The application of methodological approaches (e.g., social network analysis, ethnomethodology, conversation analysis) to understand technology development, adoption, deployment, and use. Track Co-chairs: Chao-Min Chiu, National Sun Yat-sen University, Taiwan Weiling Ke, Clarkson University, USA Important Dates - Paper submission deadline March 8, 2010 - Notification of paper acceptance April 30, 2010 - Camera-ready manuscripts due May 20, 2010 - Conference July 9-12, 2010 You may seek more information at http://www.pacis2010.org/cfp.htm Chao-Min Chiu Professor Department of Information Management National Sun Yat-sen University Kaohsiung City, Taiwan 80424 Tel: +886-7-5252000 ext.4733 Fax: +886-7-5254799 Email: cmchiu(a)mis.nsysu.edu.tw _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] J. of Organizational and End User Computing Call for Manuscripts and Special Issue Proposals on E-government Datum: Fri, 15 Jan 2010 11:23:00 -0700 Von: Mahmood, M. Adam <mmahmood(a)utep.edu> An: <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> CALL FOR PAPERS AND SPECIAL ISSUE PROPOSALS JOEUC Special Issue Proposals on E-government The research in the e-government area has exploded over the last decade or so. JOEUC invites special issue proposals from well-published scholars for a special issue on e-government. We are especially interested in theoretically grounded empirical research that emphasizes citizens' interactions with e-government. If you are interested, please send a proposal to the editor. JOEUC Mission: The primary purpose of the Journal of Organizational and End User Computing (JOEUC) is to provide a forum to information technology educators, researchers, and practitioners to advance the practice and understanding of organizational and end user computing. Prospective authors are invited to submit manuscripts for possible publication in JOEUC. The journal publishes empirical and theoretical research concerned with all aspects of organizational and end user computing. The journal is especially interested in those research studies that show a significant contribution to the area by relating organizational and end user computing to organizational and end user performance and productivity, strategic and competitive advantage, and electronic commerce. It publishes full-length research manuscripts, insightful research and practice notes, and case studies from all areas of organizational and end user computing. JOEUC Coverage: Topics should be drawn from, but not limited to, the following areas, with major emphasis on how to increase organizational and end user productivity and performance, and how to achieve organizational strategic and competitive advantage: Organizational and end user computing (OEUC) productivity and performance; OEUC and how it affects organizational strategic and competitive advantage; OEUC and how it relates to information resources management; using and managing emerging OEUC technologies including electronic commerce; OEUC satisfaction; OEUC in various management functions; OEUC usage; OEUC privacy, security, and copyright issues; OEUC success factors; OEUC controls for security and privacy; OEUC risk factors; OEUC management; OEUC hardware and software; OEUC supports and training. In general, the journal seeks contributions concerning any aspect of organizational and end user information processing including development, usage, satisfaction, performance, productivity, success, failure, policies, strategies, and management. The journal invites contributions from educators, researchers, and practitioners involved in research, management, and utilization of organizational and end user computing. JOEUC Submissions: All manuscripts submitted to JOEUC will undergo a two-way blind review. Authors are asked to submit electronically as an email attachment or mail four copies of their original, previously unpublished manuscript that satisfies the following conditions: Ø Must not be currently under review by another journal. Ø Must be written in APA (American Psychological Association) editorial style. Ø Should not exceed 25 double-spaced typed pages. Ø Must be accompanied by a cover page with author(s)' name, address, telephone number, and affiliation. Ø Should be accompanied by a 150-200 word vita of author(s) on a separate sheet. Ø Must be accompanied by a 150-200 word abstract on a separate sheet with appropriate key words for the papers. JOEUC also invites significant and insightful research and practice notes, case studies, editorials, and book reviews from all areas of organizational and end user computing. Submitted pieces for this section should not exceed 15 double-spaced pages. JOEUC Review process: To ensure high quality of the published materials, JOEUC utilizes a group of experts to review submitted manuscripts. Upon receipt of a manuscript, two reviewers are selected from the Editorial Review Board of the journal to review the manuscript. The selection is based on the area of expertise of the reviewers, matched to the subject matter of the submission. An additional ad-hoc reviewer (usually an author who has previously published in JOEUC and who has expertise in the area) is also selected to review the manuscript. Each submission is, therefore, blind reviewed by at least three reviewers. If at least two reviewers make favorable recommendations on a manuscript, the author(s) are given an opportunity to revise the manuscript. The revised manuscript is blind reviewed by an associate editor (AE) and finally reviewed by the editor. Return of a manuscript to the author(s) for revision(s) does not guarantee an acceptance of the manuscript for publication but it is a step in the right direction. The final decision on a manuscript is made based on comments of the reviewers and AE, and the quality of the revised manuscript. ALL SUBMISSIONS AND QUESTIONS SHOULD BE ADDRESSED TO: M. Adam Mahmood, Editor Journal of Organizational and End User Computing Department of Information& Decision Sciences University of Texas at El Paso El Paso, TX 79968, USA Tel: 915/747-5496 or 7754 Fax: 915/747-5147 Email:mmahmood@utep.edu _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org
