-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] General Theories of Software Engineering, Special Issue in Elsevier's Science of Computer Programming, Second Call for Contributions Datum: Mon, 12 Aug 2013 06:20:36 +0200 Von: Pontus Johnson <pontusj(a)ics.kth.se> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Science of Computer Programming, published by Elsevier Science (http://www.elsevier.com/) Special Issue on General Theories of Software Engineering (see also http://semat.org/?page_id=937) Submission deadline: October 14, 2013 Most academic disciplines emphasize the importance of their general theories. Examples of general theories include the Big Bang theory, Maxwell?s equations, the theory of the cell, the theory of evolution, the theory of demand and supply, but among the general theories are also found theories with names such as the general theory of crime and the theory of marriage, both well-established within their respective fields. Few general theories of software engineering have, however, been proposed, and none have achieved significant recognition. The main consequence of a lack of theory is a craft, limited to problem solving by trial-and-error and rules-of-thumb and in most cases only related to a limited area of relevance. Its knowledge base cannot be used for other than the most rudimentary predictions. This, in turn, means that its innovations can only be tested in vivo, which in addition to providing only little general insight can be both expensive and painful. The long list of well-known software failures is a testament to the tradition of trial-and-error. Theory addresses this problem, because a theory is a system of rules that explain the real world at some appropriate level of abstraction, but cheaply and without pain. Theory can provide answers to questions that otherwise might be prohibitively expensive or impossible to give. A general theory of software engineering would ideally advise against costly error before the trial begins. This special issue, organized by the SEMAT initiative, aims to provide a forum for discussing the concept of a general theory of software engineering. The topics considered include the benefits, the desired qualities, the core components and the form of a general theory. Explicit proposals of general theories of software engineering are equally welcome. The special issue follows the publication of an article with the title ?Where is the Theory for Software Engineering?? in September/October 2012 issue of IEEE Software, as well as two SEMAT Workshops on a General Theory of Software Engineering (GTSE 2012 [http://semat.org/?page_id=561] and 2013 [http://semat.org/?page_id=760]), the most recent in conjunction with the ICSE. Manuscripts can be submitted in pdf format online at https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sigtse2013. All papers will be reviewed by at least three expert reviewers. For the subsequent copy-ready formatting, Elsevier strongly prefers LaTeX. However, MS WORD of ASCII documents can also be processed.

David Paradice, Florida State University, USA www.igi-global.com/ijitsa MISSION OF IJITSA: Prospective authors are invited to submit manuscripts for possible publication in the International Journal of Information Technologies and the Systems Approach. The primary objective of IJITSA is to publish research articles that are globally relevant for IT stakeholders and where a systemic interdisciplinary and/or a multi-methodology research perspective are considered. IJITSA improves scientific and technological knowledge regarding the engineering and management of IT systems by fostering the utilization of the Systems Approach. INTRODUCTION TO SPECIAL ISSUE THEME: While services ?as a type of business classification (Quinn, 1992)- and service systems have been engineered, managed and studied from early past century (Chase and Apte, 2007), their core re-foundations can be tracked recently (Cook et al. 1999). Furthermore, the economic relevance of service systems (or service sector in general) in the modern worldwide economy is totally recognized. As Sheenan (2006) reports ?business organizations focused on delivering help, utility, experience, information or other intellectual content ? account for more than 70% of total value added in the OECD?. Thus, service systems and service concept - as opposed to the product concept or the single post-sale business activity - have experienced fundamental changes, and acquired a high-practical business and theoretical relevance. In this special issue, we pursue to advance our scientific knowledge on the processes, methodologies, techniques and tools for engineering and managing IT-based service systems under a Systems Approach. The service-oriented paradigm has permeated several disciplines (Chesbrough and Spohrer, 2006). IT-based service systems can be defined as ?? a value coproduction configuration of people, IT, other internal and external service systems, and shared information (such as language, processes, metrics, prices, policies, and laws.? (adapted from Spohrer et al., 2007). Accordingly, a service can be defined ?in general- as ?? the application of resources (including competences, skills, and knowledge) to make changes that have value for another (system)? (idem, 2007). Service paradigm has been identified as one of the relevant themes for IT in the last decade (Demirkan and Goul, 2006; Rai and Sambamurthy, 2006; Beachboard et al. 2007; Zhao et al. 2008). In particular, in this special issue we are interested in advancing the scientific knowledge on how to design IT-based service systems, as systems which comprise hardware, software, network infrastructure, data, environment and people components (Gallup et al., 2009). While models of processes for engineering and managing IT-based service systems (like ITILv2, ITIL v3, CMMI-SVC, CobIT, ITUP, MOF 4, ISO 20000) have been posed, their specific practices are still unclear and few used by most IT practitioners. We consider such a topic to be mandatory to foster a cost-effective and trustworthy engineering and management of IT-based service systems (Buede, 2000). Additionally, since IT-based service systems are also systems (Tien, 2008; Alter, 2008; Mora et al., 2009) their essential and shared attributes for general systems (Ackoff, 1971; Gelman and Garcia, 1989) should be considered. Based on aforementioned issues for systems, service systems, and IT-based systems, we believe that a Systems Approach (Ackoff et al., 1962; Checkland, 2000) and a Systems Engineering view (Sage, 2000; Buede, 2000) can be helpful for this aim. A Systems Approach can be defined as an answering and problem-solving system comprised of: (i) systemic philosophical paradigms (P?s: an ontological, epistemological and axiological stance on the world): (ii) systemic theoretical frameworks (F?s: ideas-constructs, theories, and models); (iii) systemic methodologies (M?s: methods, techniques, and instruments), and (iv) situational areas identified as systems (A?s: natural, artificial or social objects, artifacts and subjects under study). Similarly, a Systems Engineering discipline, can be briefly defined as ?the interdisciplinary approach and means to enable the realization of successful (cost-efficient and trustworthy) systems?.

Vor dem Hintergrund, dass weiterhin eine große Zahl an IKT-Misserfolgen zu beobachten ist, bleibt die Messung des Erfolgs von IKT auf Basis individueller Nutzung und organisationaler Adoption eine wichtige Herausforderung sowohl für Praktiker als auch in der wissenschaftlichen Forschung. In der internationalen Information-Systems-(IS)-Community spiegelt sich das u.a. in zahlreichen Veröffentlichungen zu IS Success und IS Adoption -- oftmals auf individueller Ebene -- wider. Komplementär nimmt der Forschungsstrang zum Geschäftsnutzen von IKT (Business Value of IT) einen breiteren -- zumeist organisationalen -- Fokus ein. Die Forschungsaktivitäten in diesem Bereich werden zunehmend dahingehend erweitert, dass nicht nur IKT sondern auch andere Artefakte wie Organisationsstrukturen, Prozesse und Methoden untersucht werden. Hier kann eine Brücke zur konstruktionsorientierten Wirtschaftsinformatikforschung geschlagen werden, bei der die erfolgsorientierte Evaluierung von Artefakten von großer Bedeutung ist. Diese Teilkonferenz lädt Forscher und Praktiker ein, ihre Forschung zu Aspekten der Adoption, der Nutzung und des Erfolgs von Artefakten wie IKT, Organisationsstrukturen, Prozessen und Methoden zu präsentieren. Dabei kann es sich um konzeptionelle sowie qualitativ- und quantitativ-empirische Studien handeln. MÖGLICHE THEMEN - Adoption, Nutzung und Diffusion von Artefakten - Erfolg von Artefakten - Managementansätze zur Steigerung von Adoption, Nutzung und Diffusion - Methoden und Modelle zur Messung der Adoption, Nutzung und Diffusion von Artefakten - Management und Messung des Erfolgs und Nutzens von Artefakten - Einfluss von strategischen, organisationalen, prozessualen oder kulturellen Faktoren auf Erfolg und Nutzen - Evaluation von Artefakten im Rahmen von Konstruktionsforschung und Design-Science-Prozessen - Wechselwirkung zwischen vor allem technischen Artefakten und der sozialen Umwelt in verschiedenen Bereichen des täglichen Lebens EINREICHUNGSPROZESS Beiträge können in deutscher oder englischer Sprache verfasst werden. Es können Beiträge als Vollversion (12 Seiten inkl. Deckblatt, Literaturverzeichnis etc.) und als Research in Progress (7 Seiten inkl. Deckblatt, Literaturverzeichnis etc.) eingereicht werden. Diese müssen exakt der Formatvorlage entsprechen. Sämtliche Beiträge werden durch ein Programmkomitee mindestens 2-fach-blind begutachtet.

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP: CAiSE'14 26th Int. Conf. on Advanced IS Engineering. Thessaloniki, Greece Datum: Sun, 11 Aug 2013 23:22:28 -0400 Von: E. Yu <eric.yu(a)utoronto.ca> An: <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> The 26th International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering http://delab.csd.auth.gr/caise2014/ *** 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: - Formal and/or technical papers - Empirical evaluation papers - Experience papers - 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 ? Mining, monitoring and predicting ? Variability and configuration ? Matching, compliance and alignment issues ? Conceptual design and modelling ? Security ? Service science ----- Innovative platforms, architectures and technologies for IS ? Service-oriented architecture ? Model-driven architecture ? Component based development ? Agent architecture ? Distributed, mobile, and open architecture ? Innovative database technology ? Semantic web ? IS and ubiquitous technologies ? Adaptive and context-aware IS ----- Domain specific IS engineering: ? Crisis Management ? eGovernment ? Enterprise applications (ERP, COTS) ? Data warehouses and business intelligence ?

-------- Original-Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] CfP: Multikonferenz Wirtschaftsinformatik 2014 - Teilkonferenz: Adoption, Nutzung und Erfolg von Artefakten in der WI Datum: Mon, 12 Aug 2013 13:34:20 +0200 Von: Nils Urbach <nils.urbach(a)uni-bayreuth.de> An: wi(a)lists.uni-karlsruhe.de (Bitte entschuldigen Sie eventuelle Mehrfachzustellungen.) ******************************************************************************** CALL FOR PAPERS Multikonferenz Wirtschaftsinformatik (MKWI) 2014 26.-28.02.2014 in Paderborn Website: http://www.mkwi2014.de/ Teilkonferenz: Adoption, Nutzung und Erfolg von Artefakten in der WI Webseite: http://www.mkwi2014.de/Cfps/Details/1 ******************************************************************************** BESCHREIBUNG Fragestellungen der Wirkung und Wirtschaftlichkeit von Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien (IKT) werden in der Wirtschaftsinformatik (WI) seit vielen Jahren intensiv diskutiert. Vor dem Hintergrund, dass weiterhin eine große Zahl an IKT-Misserfolgen zu beobachten ist, bleibt die Messung des Erfolgs von IKT auf Basis individueller Nutzung und organisationaler Adoption eine wichtige Herausforderung sowohl für Praktiker als auch in der wissenschaftlichen Forschung. In der internationalen Information-Systems-(IS)-Community spiegelt sich das u.a. in zahlreichen Veröffentlichungen zu IS Success und IS Adoption -- oftmals auf individueller Ebene -- wider. Komplementär nimmt der Forschungsstrang zum Geschäftsnutzen von IKT (Business Value of IT) einen breiteren -- zumeist organisationalen -- Fokus ein. Die Forschungsaktivitäten in diesem Bereich werden zunehmend dahingehend erweitert, dass nicht nur IKT sondern auch andere Artefakte wie Organisationsstrukturen, Prozesse und Methoden untersucht werden. Hier kann eine Brücke zur konstruktionsorientierten Wirtschaftsinformatikforschung geschlagen werden, bei der die erfolgsorientierte Evaluierung von Artefakten von großer Bedeutung ist. Diese Teilkonferenz lädt Forscher und Praktiker ein, ihre Forschung zu Aspekten der Adoption, der Nutzung und des Erfolgs von Artefakten wie IKT, Organisationsstrukturen, Prozessen und Methoden zu präsentieren. Dabei kann es sich um konzeptionelle sowie qualitativ- und quantitativ-empirische Studien handeln. MÖGLICHE THEMEN - Adoption, Nutzung und Diffusion von Artefakten - Erfolg von Artefakten - Managementansätze zur Steigerung von Adoption, Nutzung und Diffusion - Methoden und Modelle zur Messung der Adoption, Nutzung und Diffusion von Artefakten - Management und Messung des Erfolgs und Nutzens von Artefakten - Einfluss von strategischen, organisationalen, prozessualen oder kulturellen Faktoren auf Erfolg und Nutzen - Evaluation von Artefakten im Rahmen von Konstruktionsforschung und Design-Science-Prozessen - Wechselwirkung zwischen vor allem technischen Artefakten und der sozialen Umwelt in verschiedenen Bereichen des täglichen Lebens EINREICHUNGSPROZESS Beiträge können in deutscher oder englischer Sprache verfasst werden. Es können Beiträge als Vollversion (12 Seiten inkl. Deckblatt, Literaturverzeichnis etc.) und als Research in Progress (7 Seiten inkl. Deckblatt, Literaturverzeichnis etc.) eingereicht werden.
