-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] JAIS Theory Development Workshop at ICIS 2011 Datum: Thu, 28 Jul 2011 12:04:17 +1000 Von: Gregor, Shirley <Shirley.Gregor(a)anu.edu.au> An: <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> _*Call for Papers - Submissions due 4 September, 2011 *_ Journal of Association for Information Systems sponsored Theory Development Workshop Associated with ICIS 2011 in Shanghai, China. Dear Colleague, Following the nine successful theory development workshops since December 2002, the Senior Editors of the Journal of Association for Information Systems (JAIS) are organizing the 10^th theory development workshop immediately preceding ICIS 2011. The theory development workshop is scheduled for SATURDAY 3RD OF DECEMBER BEFORE THE CONFERENCE. The exact location of the workshop will be announced later. The purpose of the workshop is to promote scholarship that focuses on new theoretical advances in the Information system field. The design of the workshop follows the Academy of Management Review (AMR) Theory Development Workshop format that has proved successful in promoting theory development in that field. Workshop participants will discuss drafts of their theoretical work with JAIS senior editors, members of the JAIS Editorial Board, and other workshop participants. The workshop is structured to provide detailed feedback from other researchers who are also developing theoretical work for future journal submission. There is no obligation for the authors to submit their work once completed to JAIS, although JAIS is a top quality outlet that does welcome conceptual and theoretical papers in addition to empirical ones and has taken papers from these workshops in the past. Prior to the workshop, participants whose papers have been accepted to the workshop will receive one to three papers to read and review. Reviews will follow a brief, structured format that allows participants to critique their own papers and the papers of other participants. Reviews will focus on constructive comments and recommendations for ways to improve the papers. During the workshop, participants will meet in small groups with a JAIS senior editor and editorial board members. During this discussion, participants will receive specific feedback on their papers and provide feedback to others in their group. A JAIS senior editor and editorial board members will facilitate the small group discussion so that each participant gets equal time to gather comments from other members of the group. Please consult the JAIS website for the list of Senior Editors and the Editorial Board members (_http://aisel.aisnet.org/jais/_) Selection for the JAIS Theory Development Workshop is competitive. This workshop only addresses theory-building, conceptual foundations and model development issues. All manuscripts must demonstrate new theory development to be considered. Papers submitted to conferences or scheduled to be presented at conferences (e.g., ICIS) can be sent as long as the primary contribution is new theory development. However, papers under review or revision at a journal are excluded. The application deadline is September 4^th , 2011. Papers should be no more than 35 pages in length (max 8000 words), double-spaced, 12 point Time new roman font or compatible size, with citations in JAIS format (_http://aisel.aisnet.org/jais/JAIS_Style.pdf_). Longer manuscripts are also considered if the length is well motivated. To submit a paper to the workshop, upload an electronic copy of your paper (including 3-4 key words on the abstract page) to Sprouts: Working Papers on Information Systems. See information here: _http://sprouts.aisnet.org/home.html_ Please note: once you have registered and set a "user" account, login to the system and click the link of "Manage deposits" at the top. To upload your paper, please click the button of "New Item" and follow the step-by-step instruction to upload your manuscript. In the submission form, make sure that you designate the paper to "Proceedings of JAIS Theory Development Workshop" and select "Shirley Gregor" as the Reviewer of your submission. Prior to submission, please read carefully the authors guide here _http://sprouts.aisnet.org/authors-guide.html_. Your will receive an acknowledgement of your submission within 7 days. If not, please contact the JAIS office in a couple days or so as a checkup. No applications will be accepted after Sunday, September 4^th , 2011. Individuals selected as participants will be notified by Monday, October 24^th , 2011.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] Electronic Markets: CfP - Special Issue on "Shared Services: A Holistic Perspective" - Meet us at AMCIS Datum: Wed, 27 Jul 2011 09:52:34 -0400 Von: Frank_Ulbrich <Frank_Ulbrich(a)carleton.ca> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Meet us at AMCIS: Renaissance Foyer on August 5, 2011 from 3:30 PM-4:00 PM (or before the shared services session in room "Brule B" on August 5, 2011 from 10:30 AM to 12:00 PM) ******************************************************************** Electronic Markets - The International Journal on Networked Business Call for Papers for Special Issue on "Shared Services: A Holistic Perspective" ******************************************************************** Guest Editors: ************** * Frank Ulbrich, Stockholm School of Economics (SE) and Carleton University (CA) * Mark Borman, The University of Sydney (AU) Theme ***** Shared services is a networked business mechanism to deliver high quality services in an effective and efficient way to networks of internal functions or external organizations from a central source. Shared services are typically information intensive and digitally delivered and thus predicated on the use of advanced information and communication technologies. Services range from IT to HR or accounting to legal - and are constantly being applied to new areas. Shared services demand and enable changes in business governance, practices, processes, and organizational form and implementation is a complex, context-dependent endeavor expressed by electronic markets where multiple suppliers and customers interact for effectiveness and efficiency purposes. Previous research has generally focused on isolated aspects of shared services such as classification, motivation, and adoption studies. In this theme section we seek papers that provide a holistic view on shared services to integrate and advance current research - shedding new lights into the limited understood complexity of this phenomenon. Topics ****** Contributing papers may deal with any combination of the following issues and areas, but are not limited to them: * Modeling techniques for designing networked business mechanisms * Managing the transition towards shared services * Integrating shared services into an existing organizational form * Evaluating shared services * Comparing different ways to implement shared services (e.g. in different sectors, industries, or countries) * Governance structures and mechanisms for shared services * Managing dependencies in shared services arrangements * Emerging trends for new forms/types of shared services * Merging shared services centers * Abandoning/dissolving shared services We are interested in manuscripts from all over the world that are both conceptually and empirically based. In terms of conceptual papers and theoretical frameworks, we seek to contribute to theory building by both re-applying existing frameworks and developing new constructs that help explain the complexity of managing shared services in organizations. In terms of empirical data, we seek papers that report, for example, on experiences from using shared services to enhance organizational performance or lessons learnt from transforming towards this specific networked business mechanism. Additional topic suggestions are welcome. Submission ********** Prospective authors should prepare and submit manuscripts according to the guidelines published at http://www.electronicmarkets.org/authors/submission. All manuscripts that meet the scope of the special theme will be peer reviewed and should conform to Electronic Markets' publication standards. Methodological and theoretical pluralism (empirical or theoretical work, qualitative research, design science, prototypes, etc.) is welcome by the journal. All submissions should be original, not published nor under review elsewhere. If you would like to discuss any aspect of the special theme, please contact the guest editors for the special issue. Contact addresses ***************** frank.ulbrich(a)hhs.se; frank_ulbrich(a)carleton.ca mark.borman(a)sydney.edu.au Important dates *************** Proposal submission, optional: July 31, 2011 (Please send your proposal to the Guest Editors via email.)

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] CfP Service Engineering & Management / MKWI 2012 Datum: Thu, 21 Jul 2011 11:34:58 +0200 Von: Tilo Böhmann <boehmann(a)informatik.uni-hamburg.de> An: wi(a)lists.uni-karlsruhe.de -- Bitte entschuldigen Sie Mehrfachzustellungen -- ---------------- Call for Papers für die Teilkonferenz "Service Engineering & Management" Multikonferenz Wirtschaftsinformatik (MKWI) 2012 29.2. - 2.3.2012 in Braunschweig, http://mkwi2012.de ---------------- Durch die wachsende Bedeutung von Dienstleistungen wird deren Entwicklung und Management zur Schlüsselkompetenz in vielen Unternehmen. Dies bringt aber Herausforderungen mit sich, die in der Wissenschaft noch unzureichend untersucht sind. Zu diesen Herausforderungen zählt insbesondere die Produktivität von Dienstleistungen. Die konstitutiven Merkmale von Dienstleistungen, wie insbesondere die Immaterialität, das Uno-actu-Prinzip, die Nichtlagerfähigkeit und Integrativität, erfordern ein spezielles Vorgehen bei der Messung und Verbesserung der Dienstleistungsproduktivität. Insbesondere greift ein Produktivitätsverständnis zu kurz, dass einseitig die Effekte auf Seiten des Dienstleistungsanbieters fokussiert. Hier sind konkrete Modelle, Verfahren und Informationssysteme zur Messung und Bewertung von Dienstleistungsproduktivität gefordert, die Effekte bei Leistungs-nehmern und Leistungsgebern berücksichtigen. Da die Produktivität von Dienstleistung schon bei ihrer Entwicklung beeinflusst wird, ist die Weiterentwicklung und Überprüfung von Methoden und Werkzeugen der systematischen Dienstleistungsentwicklung (Service Engineering) erforderlich. Zudem besteht in der engen Verknüpfung von Dienstleistungen und Technologie zu Produkt-Dienstleistungssystemen eine besondere Chance zur Produktivitätsverbesserung. Im Zuge dieser hybriden Wertschöpfung differenzieren sich Unternehmen durch kundenspezifische Problemlösungen, die teilweise nach ihren Produktivitätswirkungen vergütet werden. Die Entwicklung, Realisierung, Einführung und Bereitstellung von Dienstleistungen und Produkt-Dienstleistungssystemen muss fachkonzeptionell noch besser verstanden und verstärkt durch Methoden und Informationssysteme unterstützt werden. Mögliche Themen für Beiträge in deutscher oder englischer Sprache: - Business-Engineering-Ansätze für die Verbesserung von Dienstleistungsprozessen - Transformation zu serviceorientierten Geschäftsmodellen - Konzepte und Methoden für das produktivitätsorientierte Service Engineering und Management - Weiterentwicklung und Erprobung von Methoden und Werkzeugen für die Entwicklung von Produkt-Dienstleistungssystemen - Referenzmodelle für Dienstleistungen mit hoher Produktivität - Empirische Studien zu Produktivitätsdefiziten bei Dienstleistungen - Standardisierung von Dienstleistungen und Dienstleistungsproduktivität - Steigerung der Produktivität von Dienstleistungen mittels operativer Informationssysteme - Softwarewerkzeuge für das Business Engineering im Dienstleistungsbereich - Kennzahlensysteme zur Messung der Dienstleistungsproduktivität - Gestaltung von Informations- und Kommunikationssystemen zur Produktivitätsmessung und -bewertung - Fallstudien zum Service Engineering und Management Leitung der Teilkonferenz: - Prof. Dr. Tilo Böhmann, Universität Hamburg (Koordinator) - Dr. Ralf Knackstedt, Rheinische Wilhelms-Universität Münster/ERCIS - Prof. Dr. Jan Marco Leimeister, Universität Kassel - Prof. Dr. Markus Nüttgens, Universität Hamburg - Prof. Dr. Oliver Thomas, Universität Osnabrück Programmkommittee: - Prof. Dr. Dr. h.c.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP - UCSI 2011 Datum: Thu, 21 Jul 2011 10:31:45 +0100 Von: Dennis Lupiana <Dennis.Lupiana(a)dit.ie> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org ******************************* CALL FOR PAPER ******************************* Submission Date: August 26, 2011 ___________________________________________________________________________________ The Second International Workshop on Ubiquitous Computing Security Issues (UCSI'11) http://www.comp.dit.ie/ucsi-2011/ In conjunction with the 6th International Conference for Internet Technology and Secured Transactions (ICITST-2011) December 11-14, 2011, Abu Dhabi, UAE Hosted by Khalifa University http://www.icitst.org/ Workshop Summary ================ In the last few years we have witnessed a significant increase in the use of computers and mobile devices in Ubiquitous Computing Systems. While this is a welcome trend, security concerns are becoming one of the major problems. It is affecting the adoption rate and usage of these systems. Unless deliberate efforts are taken to secure these systems from design to implementation most of the development achieved to date may not be realised and rolled out to the real world. The Ubiquitous Computing Security Issues (UCSI) workshop will bring together researchers and industry participants who are involved with the design, development, and implementation of novel applications and frameworks in the domain of Ubiquitous Computing. The UCSI workshop will provide a high profile, leading edge forum for researchers and engineers alike to present state-of-the-art research in the field of security for Ubiquitous Computing. The UCSI workshop invites original, high-quality research contributions. In particular contributions that identify the state-of-the-art in the design, development, deployment, evaluation and understanding of security issues for Ubiquitous Computing systems. Topics of Interest ================== > Security Challenges in Ubiquitous Computing Systems > Issues and Challenges of Ubiquitous Computing in e-Healthcare > Security and Privacy Concerns in Ubiquitous Computing Systems > Security Concerns in Positioning and Tracking Technologies > Privacy Concerns in Context-Aware Systems and Smart Environments > Techniques and Challenges for Implementing Secure Smart Environments > Legal and Ethical Issues relating to Ubiquitous Computing Systems > Security of FLOSS > Measuring software reliability issues > Mobile, Ad Hoc and Sensor Network Security > Network Security Issues, Protocols, Data Security in Ubi-com > Secure communications > Secured Database Systems > Security in Data Mining > Security and Access Control > Security of Web-based applications and services > Service, Security and its Data management for U-commerce Important Dates =============== Paper Submission: August 26, 2011 Authors Notification: September 30, 2011 Final Paper Submission: October 14, 2011 Early Registration Deadline (Authors only): May 31 to September 30, 2011 Late Registration Deadline (Authors only): October 01 to November 15, 2011 Participants Registration: May 31 to December 01, 2011 Workshop Dates: December 12-13, 2011 Submission Details ================== Paper must be submitted electronically to george.oreku(a)gmail.com.
