-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] 2nd CFP: HICSS 2013 - CFP Paradoxes and tensions in innovation and implementation of complex systems Date: Tue, 8 May 2012 09:45:44 -0500 From: Sirkka Jarvenpaa <Sirkka.Jarvenpaa(a)mccombs.utexas.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> *Track: Organizational Systems and Technology Track* *Mini-track: Paradoxes and tensions in innovation and implementation of complex systems * Within the 46th Hawaiian International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS), we organise a minitrack on *Paradoxes and tensions in innovation and implementation of complex systems*. The 46th HICSS, one of the most prominent Conferences on Information Systems and Sciences worldwide, will be held on January 7-10, 2013, in Maui,Hawaii (http://www.hicss.hawaii.edu). Paradoxes and tensions are ubiquitous to innovation and change in sociotechnical systems in a wide ranging contexts including but not limited to open innovation, e-health, mobile platforms, integrated supply chains. Conflicting demands, contradictory practices, and competing views create fiction that can energize or inhibit the performance of a complex socio-technical system. There is a growing literature on paradoxes, tensions, and duality and recently paradox theory has been proposed as an alternative meta-theoretical approach to problems that have previously been addressed by contingency theory or structural theories. The paradox theory reconceptualizes opposing poles of paradoxes, not as a tradeoff but as a duality where the opposing poles of the paradox are leveraged simultaneously and considered to be mutually dependent and mutually enabling. The track focuses on papers that theoretically or empirically advance our understanding of how tensions and paradoxes can be leveraged, enhanced, and honed to create new and frame-breaking opportunities, enhance their implementation, and acceptance, and ensure successful co-evolution of complex systems in dynamic environments. We will solicit excellent papers that will develop and expand this area. The papers can use any acceptable methodology and theory including innovation and implementation of complex systems, tensions, paradoxes, complexity theory, institutional theory, innovation theories, control theory, ambidexterity theory, trust asymmetry theory, etc. Possible topics: How does paradox perspective change or alter our view of technology related dynamics in socio-technical systems? How does duality contribute to better management of socio-technical innovation? How do institutional logics shape development and implementation of complex systems? How can technologies be designed to better leverage opposing poles of paradoxes? What is the role of technology in nesting and interweaving tensions/paradoxes? MINITRACK CHAIRS Sirkka L.

Their use however is mainly limited to either the initial or end phases of the lifecycle, namely business modelling and implementation, and their adoption is normally not characterised by an integrated and coherent end to end approach which systematically discovers the real-world semantics of business requirements, represents such semantics in formal ontologies and subsequently grounds the software design and implementation ontologically. What is also lacking is a sound approach to ontological reuse such that existing ontological patterns be used to drive the discovery of system requirements with the potential to more easily identifying previously developed software components which can be semantically mapped to those ontological patterns. Ontology-Driven Information Systems Engineering (ODISE, pronounced odyssey) concerns the practical and formal application of ontologies to all phases of the software development lifecycle. Contributions in the form of research, research-in-progress papers and practitioner reports are welcome. Of particular interest to the workshop are contributions that emphasise formal ontologies and real world semantics in improving IS engineering and contributing toward developing software that is more adaptive and responsive to changing business requirements. This workshop is aimed at discussing the above themes and to bring together academics, researchers and practitioners (with a background in IS engineering and/or ontology development) in order to develop an agenda of future collaborations that combine research and industrial expertise. Topics for contributions include, but are not limited to: - Ontology as a means to inform the process of gathering requirements. - Ontology as a means to inform architecture development directly from requirements specifications. - Ontology as a means to inform the software design directly from the architecture specification. - Ontology as a means to model the software development process and the software product itself. - Ontologies as run-time artefacts or to inform the design of run-time artefacts. - The role of ontology reasoning in the software engineering process. - The role of ontologies in model-driven development. - Philosophical ontologies (3D vs. 4D) and their role in IS development - Comparison of different ODISE mechanisms (e.g. domain-specific modelling, profiling, etc.). - Comparison of the role of foundational ontologies vs. domain ontologies in ODISE. - Ontology driven development of service software. - Methodological issues for ODISE. - Problems of semantic mismatch between traditional IS modelling paradigms, approaches, techniques, etc. and ontological modelling. - Ontology-based development/modelling/programming languages. *** Important Dates and Submission *** Authors are invited to submit papers via EasyChair. Please check the workshop Web site for further instructions. Deadlines are as follows: 14 May 2012 (EXTENDED): Submission deadline for ODISE paper 31 May 2012: Notification of acceptance 21 June 2012: Revisions due 24 July 2012: Workshop *** Organisers *** Sergio de Cesare (Brunel University, U.K.) Frederik Gailly (Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Belgium) Grant Holland (Organic Complex Systems Institute, U.S.A.)

In formal and applied ontology, modularity is central to reducing the complexity of designing and understanding ontologies, and to facilitating ontology verification, reasoning, development, maintenance and integration. Recent research on ontology modularity shows substantial progress in foundations of modularity, techniques of modularization and modular development, distributed reasoning and empirical evaluation. These results provide a solid foundation and exciting prospects for further research and development. The workshop continues a series of successful events that have been an excellent venue for practitioners and researchers to discuss latest and current work; the most recent WoMOs were held at FOIS 2010 and ESSLLI 2011. TOPICS include, but are not limited to: - What is modularity?: kinds of modules and their properties; modules vs. contexts; design patterns; granularity of representation; - Logical/foundational studies: conservativity; modular ontology languages; reconciling inconsistencies across modules; formal structuring of modules; heterogeneity; - Algorithmic approaches: distributed and incremental reasoning; modularization and module extraction; sharing, linking, reuse; privacy; evaluation of modularization approaches; complexity of reasoning; implemented systems; - Applications: semantic web; life sciences; bio-ontologies; natural language processing; space and time; ambient intelligence; social intelligence; collaborative ontology development and ontology versioning. IMPORTANT DATES Paper Submission: May 11, 2012 Notification: June 12, 2012 Camera ready: July 1, 2012 Workshop: July 24, 2012 SUBMISSION GUIDELINES: We welcome submissions on modularity in a broad sense.
