Fwd: [AISWorld] CFP: 15th International Conference on Modelling Methods in Systems Analysis and Design (EMMSAD'10)
by Gustaf Neumann 27 Jan '10

27 Jan '10

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP: 15th International Conference on Modelling Methods in Systems Analysis and Design (EMMSAD'10) Datum: Wed, 27 Jan 2010 00:49:46 -0600 Von: Keng Siau <ksiau(a)unlnotes.unl.edu> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org EMMSAD'2010 15th International Conference on Modelling Methods in Systems Analysis and Design (EMMSAD'10) http://www.emmsad.org <http://www.emmsad.org/> Hammamet, Tunisia, 7-8 June, 2010 (held in conjunction with CAiSE'10) Submissions due: 11 February 2010 (abstracts), 18 February 2010 (papers) Sponsors * Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering (CAiSE). As of 2007, EMMSAD is officially linked to the CAiSE conference series on a regular basis. * The Enterprise Engineering Network. * International Federation for Information Processing Working Group 8.1. IFIP WG8.1 has sponsored EMMSAD since 1997. * Association for Information Systems Special Interest Group on Systems Analysis and Design (AIS-SIGSAND). The AIS-SIGSAND has been a sponsor since 2005. * INTEROP-VLab North Pole and the predecessor Interop has been a sponsor since 2005. Background Several modelling techniques for the analysis and design of enterprises, business processes and information systems are in existence. The field includes numerous modelling methods, notations and approaches (e.g. ER, ORM, UML, ArchiMate, EPC, BPMN and DEMO). Even with some attempts to standardise (e.g. UML for object-oriented software design and ArchiMate for enterprise architecture), new modelling methods are being introduced, many of which differ only marginally from existing approaches. These ongoing changes significantly impact the way enterprises, business processes and information systems are being analysed and designed in practice. The EMMSAD conference focuses on exploring, evaluating, and enhancing current systems modeling methods and methodologies, where systems can refer to enterprises, business processes, as well as information systems. Though the need for such studies is well recognised, there is a paucity of such research in the literature. The objective of the EMMSAD series of conferences is to provide a forum for researchers and practitioners interested in modelling methods for systems analysis and design to meet, and exchange research ideas and results. It also provides the participants an opportunity to present their research papers and experience reports, and to take part in open discussions. EMMSAD'10 is the 15th in a very successful series of EMMSAD events, previously held in Heraklion, Barcelona, Pisa, Heidelberg, Stockholm, Interlaken, Toronto, Velden, Riga, Porto, Luxembourg, Trondheim, Montpellier and Amsterdam. As of 2007, EMMSAD is officially linked to the CAiSE conference series. Topics of Interest Relevant topics include theoretical and/or empirical or case-based exploration of modeling methods and methodologies in a systems analysis and design context, where systems include enterprises, business processes as well as information systems. The topics of interest include general modelling issues, such as: * Modelling languages * Quality of models & modelling * The process of modelling * Specific strategies for modelling * Situational methods and strategies for modelling * Experiences in modelling * Theoretical/philosophical foundations of modelling where this can pertain to specific aspects of systems, such as: * Goal modelling * Enterprise modelling * Value modelling * Service & transaction modelling * Business processes & business rules * Information & database modelling Important dates * Abstract submission: February 11 * Paper submissions: February 18 * Notification of acceptance: March 13 * Camera-ready copies: March 20 * Conference: June 7-8 Submission guidelines The conference accepts two types of submissions: completed research and research in progress. Completed research papers should include analysis of data and discussion on research findings. Research in progress papers should report on research that is well under way with preliminary research results available at the time of the conference. For both types of papers, the paper should not exceed 13 pages using the correct style (including references and appendices). Papers may involve a theoretical analysis of a scientific challenge, as well as the presentation of a solution to an identified scientific challenge. The first page should begin with the title of the paper, author names (contact author underlined), affiliations, and e-mail addresses, followed by an abstract of no more than 150 words. The paper should be formatted according to the Springer LNBIP format. Only electronic submissions Adobe PDF format are accepted. E-mail your abstract to E.Proper(a)acm.org. Submit the full paper using the conference management system available at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=emmsad10 Accepted papers will be published in the EMMSAD conference proceedings, which will be provided in the LNBIP series by Springer Verlag, and should use the Springer LNBIP style (see http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-7-487211-0). Top papers in the completed research category will also be considered (after extension and enhancement) either for chapters in a book to be edited by the workshop co-chairs, or for journal publications in the International Journal of Information System Modeling and Design (IJISMD).

The ICEIS series of conferences bring together researchers, engineers and practitioners interested in the advances and business applications of enterprise information systems. The conference is scheduled to take place from 8 -- 12 June 2010, in Funchal, Madeira -- Portugal. The AER 2010 Workshop will be co-sponsored by INSTICC and the Enterprise Architecture Research Forum. *Background and Goals of the AER 2010 Workshop* Enterprise Architecture (EA) remains high on the agenda of both business and government. The advancement of EA has been rapid, despite being highly complex and multidimensional. Although there are many reports on success, there is still much confusion within both the practitioner and scientific communities with regards to issues such as adoption, integration, governance and alignment. The academic and research communities therefore need to actively participate in the establishment of foundations for EA, to enable this dynamic field will to fulfil its promises. The goal of this workshop is to establish a basis for presenting fundamental and applied research on EA, and also to provide researchers, academics and practitioners with a platform for discussions and publishing in this field. We invite participants to contribute to establishing a research foundation for EA in general, and also enterprise repositories, in particular. The latter is important because storing and maintaining the huge volume of architectural output in is major challenge for EA. *Topics of Interest * We are inviting papers that fall within the scope of the workshop as described above. We are especially interested in papers addressing one or more of the following topics: */General topics: /* · EA and enterprise engineering · EA repositories · EA frameworks · Theory and practice in EA · EA methodologies and tools */Other topics may include, but are not limited to: /* · Evolution of EA · Architectures and design principles for repositories · Modelling including strategy modelling, business modelling, application modelling, data modelling, technological infra-structure modelling · Model analysis, verification and validation · Specification of views, viewpoints and layers · Notations, languages and standards for organizational engineering · Ontologies in enterprise engineering · EA reference models, meta-models and frameworks · Business process management, including business process mining and clustering, business process patterns, process orchestration and coordination · Vertical alignment between strategy, business, support systems and technology · Integration: enterprise, business and enterprise application integration · EA and e-government, organizational theory, system development · Maturity models for EA artefacts and processes · Measurements, metrics, analysis, and evaluation of EA artefacts and processes · EA and service oriented architecture (SOA) · Integration of service-oriented and legacy architectures · Case studies for EA including adoption, governance, alignment and integration, managing complexity. *Important Dates* Regular Paper Submission Deadline: 8 March 2010 Authors Notification: 6 April 2010 Final Paper Submission and Registration: 21 April 2010 *Workshop Program Committee* Jason Cohen, University of Witwatersrand, South Africa Ulrich Frank, University of Duisburg-Essen, Germany Naoki Fukuta, Shizuoka University, Japan Fabien Gandon, INRIA, France Martin Hepp, Universität der Bundeswehr, Germany Manfred Jeusfeld, Tilburg University, The Netherlands Dimitris Karagiannis, University of Vienna, Austria Frank Leymann, University of Stuttgart, Germany Machdel Matthee, University of Pretoria, South Africa Irina Neaga, Loughborough University, United Kingdom Rainer Telesko, FHNW University of Applied Sciences Northwestern Switzerland, Switzerland Barbara Thönssen, FHNW University of Applied Sciences Northwestern Switzerland, Switzerland Darelle van Greunen, Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University, South Africa Holger Wache, FHNW University of Applied Sciences Northwestern Switzerland, Switzerland Rosina Weber, Drexel University, USA Mathias Weske, University of Potsdam, Germany Takahira Yamaguchi, Keio University, Japan Hanlie Smuts, University of South Africa, South Africa Robert Woitsch, BOC Asset Management, Austria *Paper Submission* Prospective authors are invited to submit papers for oral presentation in any of the topics listed above. The workshop welcomes two types of submissions: 1. Full papers describing fundamental and applied research related to EA or EA repositories. The maximum length of a full paper is 10 pages. 2. Short papers describing fundamental and applied work in progress research related to EA or EA repositories. The maximum length of a short paper is 4 pages.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP - Web Science: A New Paradigm in IS-Research (minitrack at AMCIS 2010) Datum: Tue, 26 Jan 2010 18:41:12 +0100 Von: Johannes Putzke <putzke(a)wim.uni-koeln.de> An: <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> **************************************************** CALL FOR PAPERS "Web Science - A New Paradigm in IS-Research" Minitrack at 17th Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS 2010) August 12-15, 2010, Lima, Peru http://www.amcis2010.org **************************************************** Web Science is a new, interdisciplinary scientific paradigm (or even discipline) that seeks to understand the Web in its whole with a focus on technical and social challenges. The AMCIS 2010 minitrack on Web Science welcomes in particular submissions (1) examining social aspects of the Web, (2) using Web data for forecasting or other purposes, and (3) proposing architectural principles of a Web infrastructure for social software. The term Web Science was coined by Berners-Lee and colleagues (2006) in a short Science article. Since than many researchers adopted the paradigm, organized specialized Web Science conferences and developed the paradigm further (e.g. Hendler et al. 2008). In this minitrack, we intend to foster the interdisciplinary discourse between scholars developing the Web and scholars examining the increasing amount of networked data in a variety of disciplines such as Information Systems, Computer science, Sociology, Physics, Management Science, Economics, Anthropology and Communication Studies. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): * Social Network Analysis * Semantic Network Analysis * Web mining for purposes of (collective) trend prediction / collective intelligence / prediction markets / link prediction / agenda setting * Social media (e.g. blogs, media sharing sites, opinion aggregators, Massively Multiplayer Online Games, social bookmarking sites and folksonomies, social networking platforms (like Facebook, Habbo Hotel, LinkedIn), and Wikis) * Diffusion processes (e.g. eWOM, viral marketing, identifying influentials) * Decision Support Systems using the Web * Theoretical properties of social machines in the Web * Algorithms for creating social machines in the Web and analyzing social networks * Architectural principles of a Web infrastructure for social software * Cultural differences and social mechanisms on the Web * Applications of the Web including e-government, e-health, e-science and other emerging areas * Collaborative innovation networks (COINS) / virtual communication and collaboration * Random graphs, modeling and simulation, or other approaches to empirical network analysis * Trust, privacy, risk, transparency and security * Promoting the paradigm of Web Science (e.g. curricular and epistemological underpinnings) The minitrack is interdisciplinary in nature. We invite contributions from a broad spectrum including information systems, computer science, economics, management, sociology, psychology, biology, and physics in order to take full advantage of methodological broadness. We also invite practitioners that will enrich the discussions through their experiences with developing the Web. Papers will be peer-reviewed using a double-blind system and will be considered for Best Paper Awards. In 2010, a Best Paper Award for a practitioner-oriented paper will be selected with input from CIOs. IMPORTANT DATES Submission Opens : January 4, 2010 Papers Due : March 1, 2010 Notification of Acceptance : April 12, 2010 Camera Ready Copy Due : April 26, 2010 INSTRUCTIONS FOR PAPER SUBMISSION Please submit final papers via Manuscript Central(http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/amcis2010).

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] 2nd CfP for the AMCIS 2010 minitrack on "Information Systems Success & Benchmarking" / opportunity for fast track publication in BPMJ Datum: Tue, 26 Jan 2010 13:58:04 +0100 Von: Simone Rudolph <Simone.Rudolph(a)in.tum.de> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org (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/Ho…) 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=18…).
