Social computing lies at the intersection of social behavior and computing systems. It focuses on the use of technology to create social conventions and contexts, as well as the new relationships and power structures that result. Three widely-agreed tenets of social computing are (i) the shift of innovation from a top-down to a bottom-up model; (ii) the shift of value from ownership to experiences; and (iii) the shift of power from institutions to communities. Social computing (also known as Web 2.0 and social media) has drawn much interest in academia, the information technology industry and among Internet users. This track at ITNG 2012 will serve as a platform for those researching this area. Submissions may include research, system, evaluation, policy and position papers. Topics include, but are not limited to: * Use of information communication technologies for social computing * Mobile social computing * Infrastructure and architectures for social computing * Online communities and social networking * Social tagging and collaborative information organization * Information retrieval and sharing techniques * Usability and user needs * Applications and case studies in social computing * Novel applications supporting user-generated content and social interaction * Social, institutional and policy issues in social computing * Social computing in schools, enterprises and other organizations * Collaboration and social computing * Social computing trends and issues PUBLICATION Proceedings will be published by the IEEE Conference Publishing Services and indexed in major databases. Electronic submission in PDF or MS Word format are required. Papers must represent high quality and previously unpublished work, not currently under review by another conference, workshop, or journal. Interested authors should submit a 6-8 page paper of their original and unpublished work including 5 keywords in the IEEE format. Your submission should include the author names, complete mailing addresses, telephone and fax numbers, and the email addresses of the authors. For formatting and submission instructions, please refer to http://www.itng.info/submission.php.

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Call for papers for CAIS special section on Emerging Ideas in Information Systems Date: Sun, 25 Sep 2011 17:40:57 -0500 From: Ilze Zigurs <izigurs(a)mail.unomaha.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org Communications of the Association for Information Systems Call for Papers, Special Section on Emerging Ideas in Information Systems Guest Editors: Fred Niederman, St. Louis University Don McCubbrey, University of Denver We are soliciting papers on emerging ideas in Information Systems (IS) that provide a "breakthrough" or innovative way of thinking. Our goal is to stimulate original thinking and reconceptualization of existing observations in service to the practice of IS. Our leaning is toward addressing phenomena that confront leaders and workers in the IS domain as well as the effects of using IS beyond organizations. We emphasize the potential of such thinking to increase the value of our scholarly work to our practitioner colleagues and our students, as they serve in the role of change agents and entrepreneurs and engines of organizational and societal progress. We want to stress the forward-looking positioning of this endeavor. We are particularly looking for conceptual papers or think pieces that will help to bring forward emerging aspects of the field. We are also open to meta-analyses and literature reviews that emphasize what we have learned in a particular domain and what questions remain to be addressed. We are open to case studies and other methods that focus on practice. We are as interested in the details of small accumulated choices/actions as we are in the summary of these into the effects of large constructs on one another. Within the organizational IS context, we are looking for papers that emphasize: (1) reorganization or reinterpretation of the relationship among components in development, managing, and innovating with IS within and between organizations, e.g. better understanding of the interaction of specific organizational policies and practices with development constraints and outcomes; (2) reporting of patterns of findings based on observations and studies in the IS domain, e.g. meta-analysis or literature reviews showing patterns of findings and unaddressed questions in a domain of interest; (3) observation of detailed strategic, tactical, and operational behaviors and/or artifacts from the organizational application of IS, e.g. case studies showing the acquisition, adaptation, and use of information systems focused on detailed choices and local as well as summary outcomes; (4) extrapolations of current trends into future prospects; and (5) IS capabilities to address the grand challenges facing society including health care, sustainability, poverty alleviation, employment, social equity, and extending participation in governing institutions. We envision including work on emerging technologies like ubiquitous computing, natural language processing, complex adaptive systems, agent-based modeling, social media, virtual worlds, and analytics, particularly when such inquiries incorporate what has been learned from "emerged" technology, what differentiates these technologies, what we can learn in observing their utility, and their potential for influencing both workplace and society at large. We are not only interested in success stories, but also in "failure" stories with an emphasis on what was learned. Interdisciplinary scholarship is increasingly demonstrating its value, and IS crosses almost every knowledge domain from art to the natural sciences. Therefore, papers that envision innovative interdisciplinary applications will be welcomed. Editorial Board: Currently being composed, we plan to invite a broad array of IS scholars from the three AIS regions whose prior work is based on a broad diversity of content and methods. Timetable: Submit abstract to co-editors by January 9, 2012 Submit paper by March 5, 2012 Reviews returned to authors by April 2, 2012 Revise and resubmit by May 21, 2012 Final decisions by June 1, 2012 Papers published by July 16, 2012 Review Process: Inquiries prior to submission are welcome. Each paper will be reviewed by at least two members of the Special Section review board. Papers will have two rounds of peer review. The first round of reviews will provide developmental guidance for improving those papers that are conditionally accepted. Final selections for the Special Section will be made from the second-round submissions. Submission Instructions: All submissions should be emailed to the guest editors in MSWord format, following APA guidelines. Submit to niederfa(a)slu.edu and dmccubbr(a)du.edu.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] First CfP: ICSOB 2012, 3rd Int. Conf. on Software Busiess Datum: Fri, 23 Sep 2011 17:25:02 +0300 Von: Pasi T. Tyrvainen <pasi.t.tyrvainen(a)jyu.fi> An: <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Call for Papers Third International Conference on Software Business June 18-20, 2012, MIT, Cambridge, Massachusetts http://www.icsob.org Theme: Innovation and Entrepreneurship in the Software Business --------------------------------------------------------------- Advancements in the software industry have had a substantial impact not only on productivity and on GDP growth globally, but also on our daily work and life. Software business refers to commercial activities in the software industry, aimed at generating income from the delivery of software products and software services. Although the software business shares common features with other international knowledge-intensive businesses, it carries many inherent features making it a challenging domain for research. In particular, software companies have to depend on one another to deliver a unique value proposition to their customers. New developments like Apps that run on pre-existing platforms have emerged as a major force and are creating what is being labeled as the App Economy.
