-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] AMCIS 2012 CFP: Information Systems for Sustainable Business Practices and their Organizational Adoption Datum: Sun, 5 Feb 2012 20:56:21 +0900 Von: Chulmo Koo <helmetgu(a)gmail.com> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org _AMCIS 2012 __Minitrack Proposal_ Information Systems for Sustainable Business Practices and their Organizational Adoption 18th Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS 2012) 09 - 12 August 2011, Seattle, Washington, USA, http://amcis2012.aisnet.org/ Track: Green IS: Building Research Programs and Designing Curricula Green IS and sustainable business practices have increasingly found their way into the agenda of researchers and practitioners.Green IS relates to both, infrastructures and organizational aspects of environmental technology. Sustainable business practices include Green IS but entail a more general view, considering people, processes, software, and information technology to support individual, organizational, and societal objectives. Information in general and information systems in particular, can play an important role in supporting sustainable business practices, e.g. regarding supply chains, life cycle analyses, recycling, or resource consumption (including energetic and non-energetic resources). This minitrack focuses on the one hand on the design of artifacts that support sustainable business practices and on the other hand on measures to ensure their organizational adoption. The environmental awareness of IS managers is one of the potential starting points for future investigations. The IS discipline is challenged to provide insights into how organizations can leverage their IS capabilities to effectively address environmental issues while simultaneously considering economic imperatives such as management of risk and return, and competitive advantage. Decisions related to sustainable business practices, inevitably, will be strategic in nature, with fundamental changes across organizations, and IS can play a central role in this effort. *__* We invite contributions from a broad spectrum including business information systems, engineering, management, operations research, applied computer science, and economics in order to fully incorporate technical and business aspects. We also invite practitioners that will enrich the discussions through their business experiences. *_Important Dates_* Mar 1, 2012: Deadline for paper submissions April 2, 20012: Authors will be notified of acceptances on or about this date April 20, 2012: For accepted papers, camera ready copy due *_Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:_* IS for sustainable business practices: -Green supply chain management & logistics -Environmental management systems -Life cycle analysis -Reuse, recycling, remanufacturing -Metals & minerals informatics -Information Systems for green industrial eco-systems Organizational adoption of sustainable business practices: -Motivations for greening within organizations -Organizational adoption of sustainably business practices -Information systems for an environmental awareness -Technologies greening organizations (e.g. mobile systems, cloud computing, remote sensing) -Green awareness and communication for formulating organizational strategy *__* *_Minitrack Chairs Contact Information:_* Chulmo Koo Assistant Professor College of Business Chosun University, South Korea helmetgu@g <mailto:helmetgu@chosun.ac.kr>mail.com <http://mail.com> Joseph Sarkis Professor of Management Graduate School of Management Clark University, USA jsarkis(a)clarku.edu <mailto:jsarkis@clarku.edu> Gilbert Fridgen Research Center Finance & Information Management University of Augsburg, Germany gilbert.fridgen(a)wiwi.uni-augsburg.de <mailto:gilbert.fridgen@wiwi.uni-augsburg.de> Stefan Seidel Assistant Professor Institute of Information Systems University of Liechtenstein, Principality of Liechtenstein stefan.seidel(a)uni.li <mailto:stefan.seidel@uni.li> -- =============================== Chulmo Koo, Ph.D, Assistant Professor College of Business, Chosun University, South Korea Cellphone 82-16-505-1393 Office 82-62-230-6831 www.chosun.ac.kr/~helmetgu/ <http://www.chosun.ac.kr/%7Ehelmetgu/> ===============================

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] Call for Papers : International Conference on Engineering of Complex Computer Systems (ICECCS 2012) Datum: Sat, 4 Feb 2012 23:59:34 +0000 Von: Kappelman, Leon <Leon.Kappelman(a)unt.edu> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> CALL FOR PAPERS: ICECCS 2012 website: http://www.iceccs.org/ 17th Annual IEEE International Conference on the Engineering of Complex Computer Systems (ICECCS) July 18-20,2012 Ecole Normale Superieure, Paris - FRANCE This conference is co-sponsored by the IEEE Technical Committee on Complexity in Computing (TCCX) and the CESAMES non-profit organization ***************************************************************************** Submission deadline: February 15, 2012 -------------------------------------- The success of key human activities ranging from research and business to everyday services relies on the use of ever more sophisticated, feature-rich and complex computer systems. These complex computer systems are regularly required to accomplish more, faster and on a broader scale, to adapt dynamically to changing workloads, scenarios and objectives, and to achieve guaranteed levels of performance and dependability. Satisfying such demanding requirements in the presence of the variability, heterogeneity and non-linear behaviour that characterise complex computer systems poses numerous challenges to both their developers and their users. The aim of the conference is to bring together researchers, practitioners and leading experts from academia and industry, to advance the state of the art in the specification, development, validation and verification, and management of complex computer systems. Scope and topics: ================ Authors are invited to submit papers describing original, unpublished research results, case studies and tools. Additionally, submissions of poster papers are sought for two separate poster sessions: an "ongoing research" poster session, and a "PhD research" poster session. Topics of interest include but are not limited to the following aspects of complex computer systems: - Requirement specification and analysis - Verification and validation - Model-driven development - Reverse engineering and refactoring - Achitecture software - Big Data Management - Sensor Networks and Ubiquitous Computing - Design by contract - Agile methods - Safety-critical& fault-tolerant architectures - Adaptive, self-managing and multi-agent systems - Real-time, hybrid and embedded systems - Systems of systems - Tools and tool integration - Industrial case studies Different kinds of contributions are sought, including novel research, lessons learned, experience reports, and discussions of practical problems faced by industry and user domains. The ultimate goal is to build a rich and comprehensive conference program that can fit the interests and needs of different classes of attendees: professionals, researchers, managers, and students. A program goal is to organize several sessions that include both academic and industrial papers on a given topic, and culminate with panels to discuss relationships between industrial and academic research. Full papers are divided into two categories: Technical Papers and Experience Reports. The papers submitted to both categories will be reviewed by program committee members, and papers accepted in either category will be published in the conference proceedings. Technical papers should describe original research, and experience reports should present practical projects carried out in industry, and reflect on the lessons learnt from them. Poster paper submissions should specify in their abstract whether they describe ongoing or PhD research. Both types of poster papers will be reviewed by program committee members, and accepted posters will be published in the conference proceedin Submission of Papers: ==================== Submitted manuscripts should be in English and formatted in the style of the IEEE Computer Society Proceedings Format. Papers should not exceed 10 pages for full papers and 2 pages for poster papers, including figures, references, and appendices. All submissions should be in PDF format. Submissions not adhering to the specified format and length may be rejected immediately, without review. See the submission guidelines on the conference website. Important Dates: ================ Submission of titles and abstracts : February 1, 2012 Submission of all papers : February 15, 2012 Notification of acceptance : March 30, 2012 Camera-ready material for publication : April 15, 2012 Registration deadline for authors : May 15, 2012 Early registration deadline for non-authors : May 30, 2012 General Chair: ============== Daniel Krob, Laboratoire d'Informatique (LIX), Ecole Polytechnique and CNRS, France Finance Chair: ============== Isabelle Perseil, INSERM, France Publicity Chair: ================ Alice Parisot, CESAMES, France Program Chairs: =============== Karin Breitman, Pontificia Universidade Catolica do Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Isabelle Perseil, INSERM, France Marc Pouzet, ENS-INRIA, France Program Committee: ================== Mithun Acharya, ABB Corporate Research, United States Marc Aiguier, Ecole Centrale Paris, France Yamine Aitameur, LISI/ENSMA, France Luis Almeida, Fac. de Eng. da Universidade do Porto, Portugal Keijiro Araki, Kyushu University, Japan Luciano Baresi, DEI - Politecnico di Milano, Italy Jonathan P.Bowen, London South Bank University, United Kingdom Karin Breitman, PUC-Rio, Brazil Phil Brooke, University of Teesside, United Kingdom Jean-Michel Bruel, IRIT, France Michael Butler, University of Southampton, United Kingdom Jürgen Börstler, Blekinge Institute of Technology, Sweden Radu Calinescu, Aston University, United Kingdom Corina Cirstea, University of Southampton, United Kingdom Agostino Cortesi, Universita' Ca' Foscari di Venezia, Italy Jim Davies, University of Oxford, United Kingdom Julien Delange, European Space Agency, Netherlands Felicita Di Giandomenico, ISTI-CNR, Italy Marco Di Natale, Scuola Superiore SantAnna, Italy Simone Diniz Junqueira Barboza, PUC-Rio, Brazil Gilles Dowek, Laboratoire d'Informatique(LIX), École Polytechnique and INRIA, France Kerstin Eder, University of Bristol, United Kingdom Franck Fleurey, SINTEF, Norway Carlo Alberto Furia, ETH Zurich, Switzerland Sebastien Gerard, CEA, LIST, France Jean-Paul Gibson, Telecom& Management SudParis,France Mark Grechanik, Accenture Labs, United States Lindsay Groves, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand Esther Guerra, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Spain Sylvain Hallé, UQAC, Canada Jérôme Hugues, ISAE, France Shinji Kikuchi, Fujitsu Laboratories, Japan Joseph Kiniry, IT University of Copenhagen, Denmark Ralf Laemmel, Universität Koblenz-Landau, Germany Regine Laleau, Paris Est Creteil University, France Phillip Laplante, Penn State University, United States Johan Lilius, bo Akademi University, Finland Jaime Lloret, Polytechnic University of Valencia, Spain Gerald Luettgen, University of Bamberg, Germany Tom Maibaum, McMaster University, Canada Tiziana Margaria, Potsdam University, Germany Julie Mccann, Imperial College, United Kingdom Dominique Mery, Université Henri Poincaré Nancy 1, France Raffaela Mirandola, Politecnico di Milano, Italy Andrea Omicini, Università di Bologna, Italy Flavio Oquendo, European University of Brittany - UBS/VALORIA, France Laurent Pautet, Telecom Paristech, France Isabelle Perseil, INSERM, France Robert Pettit, The Aerospace Corporation, United States Marc Pouzet, ENS-INRIA, France Arend Rensink, University of Twente, Netherlands Bernhard Rumpe, RWTH Aachen University, Germany Camille Salinesi, Université Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne, France Ricardo Sanz, Universidad Politecnica de Madrid, Spain Cristina Seceleanu, Mälardalen University, Sweden Bran Selic, Malina Software Corp, Canada Florian Skopik, Vienna University of Technology, Austria Oleg Sokolsky, University of Pennsylvania, United States Volker Stolz, University of Oslo, Norway Jing Sun, The University of Auckland, New Zealand Jörn Guy Süß, ITEE, The University of Queensland, Australia Kenji Taguchi, AIST, Japan Dalila Tamzalit, University of Nantes, France Bedir Tekinerdogan, Bilkent University, Turkey Massimo Tisi, AtlanMod, INRIA& Ecole des Mines de Nantes, France Antonio Vallecillo, University of Malaga, Spain Tullio Vardanega, University of Padua, Italy Emil Vassev, University College Dublin, Ireland Jens Weber, University of Victoria, Canada Juan Ye, University of St Andrews, United Kingdom Bechir Zalila, ReDCAD Laboratory, University of Sfax, Tunisia Naijun Zhan, Lab. of Computer Science, Institute of Software, Chinese Academy of Sciences, China Miaomiao Zhang, Tongji University, China Jianjun Zhao, School of Software, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, China Huibiao Zhu, East China Normal University, China Steffen Zschaler, King's College London,United Kingdom _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org
