Business Process Management (BPM) has evolved into a widely deployed and comprehensively studied discipline dedicated to providing a comprehensive set of tools, techniques and methods. BPM comprises activities like the identification, definition and modeling of business processes, their implementation and execution, monitoring, mining and control as well as their continuous improvement. Successful BPM needs an appropriate interplay of corporate capabilities such as governance, methods, information technology, culture, people, and strategic alignment. Technical questions related to modeling, simulating, and executing processes have been studied extensively in the past, but comparatively little work has been published with regard to the adoption, use, and organizational consequences of BPM. As the technologies underlying BPM have matured significantly, and organizational uptake of BPM technology is increasingly widespread, these questions now require increased attention. The proposed track encourages increasing Information Systems research in the BPM domain. We invite submissions dedicated to all issues along the process lifecycle and related capabilities. We seek papers that present rigorously conducted and relevant research and that add to the cumulative knowledge in the field of BPM. We also welcome a wide variety of research approaches including quantitative and qualitative, empirical and conceptual approaches such as case studies, action research, surveys, experiments, design science research, mathematical modeling, or scenario planning. TOPICS OF INTEREST Possible topics include, but are not limited to: . BPM adoption and governance . Domain-specific BPM and related solutions . Business transformation management . Business process innovation . Business value of BPM . Process-oriented Governance, Risk, and Compliance . Business process decision making . Business process industrialization . Business process analytics . BPM in the large . Content-Aware BPM . Culture in BPM and the role of people . Green BPM and sustainability transformations . Social BPM . Skills and BPM education . Process-aware information systems . Reference modeling and process frameworks . Process design and modeling languages IMPORTANT DATES Submission Deadline Date: 8th December, 2013 Notification of Acceptance: March 3rd, 2014 Final version of accepted papers due: March 30th, 2014 Early Bird Registration closes: April 16th, 2014 ASSOCIATE EDITORS Jörg Becker, University of Münster, Germany Alina Chircu, Bentley University, USA Amit Deokar, Dakota State University, USA Marlon Dumas, University of Tartu, Estonia Dax Jacobson, California State University, USA Susanne Leist, University of Regensburg, Germany Lars Mathiassen, Georgia State University, USA Jan Mendling, Vienna University of Economics and Business, Austria Hajo Reijers, TU Eindhoven, The Netherlands Flavia Santora, Federal University of the State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Peter Trkman, University of Ljubljana, Slowenia Stijn Viaene, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium Richard Welke, Georgia State University, USA Leon Zhao, City University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong -- Mailing-Liste: wi(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de Administrator: wi-request(a)lists.uni-karlsruhe.de Konfiguration: https://www.lists.uni-karlsruhe.de/sympa/info/wi

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] 1st CFP: SPECIAL ISSUE ON: Unveiling the Impact of Social Media: Importance of the Co-creation of Business Value during the Adoption and Use Process-Journal of Organizational and End User Computing (JOEUC) Datum: Sat, 30 Nov 2013 02:13:36 +0000 Von: Samuel FOSSO WAMBA <Samuel.FOSSO.WAMBA(a)neoma-bs.fr> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> ********************* CALL FOR PAPERS ********************* SUBMISSION DUE DATE: August 15, 2014 SPECIAL ISSUE ON: *Unveiling the Impact of Social Media: Importance of the Co-creation of Business Value during the Adoption and Use Process* Journal of Organizational and End User Computing (JOEUC) *Guest Editors: * Dr. Samuel Fosso Wamba, NOEMA Business School, France Dr. Shahriar Akter, University of Wollongong, Australia Dr. Thomas F. Stafford, University of Memphis, USA Dr. Mithu Bhattacharya, University of Detroit Mercy, USA *Introduction:* Social media is at the core of the so called "social commerce", which represents a new form of "Internet-based social media that allows people to participate in the marketing, selling, comparing, and buying of products and services in online marketplaces and communities" (Stephen & Toubia, 2010 <#_ENREF_3>, p. 215). Driven by the widespread diffusion and adoption of social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter, as well as mobile devices, social commerce is expected to generate tremendous business value in terms of operational efficiency and improved revenues in the incoming years. Some analysts estimated that the social commerce market will grow from about US$5 billion in 2011, to almost US$30 billion by 2016 (Zhou, Zhang, et al., 2011 <#_ENREF_4>). In a McKinsey Global Institute report, the consulting firm foresaw that in 2012 only, "$900 billion to $1.3 trillion in annual value could be unlocked in just four sectors by products and services that enable social interactions in the digital realm". According to the same report, "[t]here's no doubt organizations have begun to realize significant value from largely external uses of social[media]. Yet internal applications have barely begun to tap their full potential, even though about two-thirds of social's estimated economic value stems from improved collaboration and communication within enterprises. Although more than 80 percent of executives say their companies deploy social technologies, few have figured out how to use them in ways that could have a large-scale, replicable, and measurable impact at an enterprise level" (Chui, Dewhurst, et al., 2013 <#_ENREF_1>, p. 1). While value co-creation from social media is emerging as an important field of research (Fosso Wamba & Carter, 2013 <#_ENREF_2>), very few empirical studies have be devoted to how to actually co-create and capture value from social media. *Objective:* The main objective of this special issue is to contribute to filling this knowledge gap. More precisely, this special issue aims to invite scholars and practitioners to look at the ways and means to (a) co-create and capture business value from social media and Web 2.0-related concepts both at the individual, firm and supply chain levels, such value being assessable in terms of new business opportunities, improved performance and competitive advantage; and (b) unveil their implications for practices and management strategies. ** *Recommended Topics:* Topics to be discussed in this special issue include (but are not limited to) the following: ·Are current IT adoption research theories (e.g., TAM) appropriate to studying the adoption and use of social media at the individual, organizational, and interorganizational levels? ·Case studies on the implementation of new social media concepts for business value co-creation at the individual, organizational and interorganizational levels ·Enabling innovative electronic business models using social media in various sectors (e.g., administration, healthcare, retail industry, manufacturing, emergency services like disaster management) ·Governance structures and practices facilitating the co-creation and capture of business value from social media at the individual, organizational, and inter-organizational levels ·Modeling and simulating the business value of social media on quality management ·Modeling and simulating the costs and risks associated with the deployment of social media projects at the individual, organizational, and interorganizational levels ·Modeling and simulating the financial, managerial, leadership, and human resources required for social media implementation projects ·New theories development to explain the adoption and use of social media at the individual, organizational and interorganizational levels ·Social media and big data impact at the individual, organizational, and interorganizational levels ·Social media-enabled business analytics at the individual, organizational and interorganizational levels *Submission Procedure* Prospective authorsare invited to submit papers for this special theme issue on *"Unveiling the Impact of Social media: Importance of the co-creation of business value during the adoption and use process"* on or before August 15, 2014.

Jarke <jarke(a)dbis.rwth-aachen.de> An: <wi(a)lists.uni-karlsruhe.de> Upon numerous requests, the Deadline for CAiSE 2014 Main Conference has been extended. New paper submission deadline: 9 December 2013 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The 26th International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering http://delab.csd.auth.gr/caise2014/ Call for Papers Information Systems Engineering in Times of Crisis Real-time information systems and overly complex financial products have been blamed as causes of recent financial crises. The IS Engineering community is treating such phenomena as challenges, to be addressed through research and improved practices. In particular, our community has begun to address the role of information systems in predicting, preventing, and reacting to crises of many different kinds: data-centric financial and fiscal dependency analysis of the globalized financial systems, resilience of critical infrastructures by information management, reaction to natural disasters such as fires, floods, earthquakes, etc. Due to the very nature of crises as unexpected events with broad and vast impact, IS Engineering challenges traditional wisdom and methodologies, as well as interactions between research and practice including stakeholders such as crisis victims. CAiSE '14 will, as always, act as a forum of discussion that brings together researchers and practitioners in the field of IS Engineering. It will be the place to share mature research, ground-breaking ideas, and experience reports in our discipline. CAiSE welcomes all submissions that fall in the domain of information systems engineering. This year, the conference extends a special welcome to papers that address the role of IS engineering in crisis situations. Four kinds of contributions are accepted: technical papers, empirical evaluation papers, reports of experience, and exploratory papers. The CAiSE topics of interest include, but are not restricted to: Methods, techniques and tools for IS engineering . Innovation and creativity in IS engineering . Enterprise architecture and enterprise modelling . Requirements engineering . Business process modeling, analysis and management . Requirements, models, and software reuse . Adaptation, evolution and flexibility issues . Domain engineering . IS in networked & virtual organizations . Method engineering . Knowledge, information, and data quality . Languages and models .
