AMCIS 2015 CFP: Mini-Track: Resilient Handling of Extreme Events in
End-User Environments
Track: End-User Information Systems, Innovation, and Organizational
Change (SIG-OSRA)
Puerto Rico, August 13-15, 2015
The ubiquity of information technology (IT) innovations, like Web 2.0
and social media, has led to the creation of new ways of doing business,
including new organizational forms and new forms of value creation. In
particular, the end user has become an integral part of many
organizations’ innovation and efficiency models. Yet the presence of end
users introduces both new risks and new ways of dealing with risks.
These risks may take the form of extreme events such as natural
disasters (earthquakes), terrorist attacks, or economic crises, or
smaller events (loss of organizational assets). Just as the inclusion of
end users in innovation has given organizations and entrepreneurs a
competitive advantage, the ability to handle extreme events is key to
maintaining advantages – as well as to the sustainability of the
organization itself. Indeed, the end user itself may be a key resource
in handing or predicting an extreme event.
In order to gain rich insight into and provide comprehensive means for
the outlined subject we seek to bring together researchers from
different fields such as business information systems, computer science,
software engineering, CSCW, extreme events research, information
visualization, management research, organization theory etc. Both
conceptual and empirical works are welcome and will be considered for
this mini-track.
Suggested Topics
·Theories, models, approaches and concepts of resilient handling of
extreme events in end-user environments
·Cooperation, coordination and communication during extreme events
·Emergent and evolving behavior during extreme events between different
actors in ecosystems
·Case studies on extreme events in in end-user environments
·Resilient IT infrastructures
·Extensions to IT management methods in order to comprise resilient
handling of extreme events.
·Role and possibilities of new technologies and innovations for handling
extreme events.
·Communicative visualization approaches comprising complex extreme
events, resilient handling of extreme events, reporting/modeling on
different levels of granularity
·Evaluations of advantage/disadvantage of world-wide standardization and
centralization efforts
·Cultural issues in handling extreme events in end-user environments
·Research methods and theories suitable for guiding research on extreme
events in end-user environments

CALL FOR PAPERS
Special Issue of IEEE Multimedia
Social Media for Ubiquitous Learning and Adaptive Tutoring
http://www.computer.org/portal/web/computingnow/mmcfp1
*********************************************************************
AIMS
The rapid growth of social media has led to an increasing number of social
media services, such as Facebook, Second Life, Twitter, and WhatsApp.
These tools facilitate a socially connected Web, where everyone can
interact with each other, create online communities, and share multimedia
content. With this social and participatory Web, users are not just
content consumers but also content producers, often in a collaborative
manner. At the same time, with the fast-growing popularity of Massively
Open Online Courses (MOOCs) that have emerged from the convergence of
distance education and the increasing accessibility of the Internet,
university education may reach virtually unlimited number of learners
throughout the world. Thus, effectively improving the use of such
educational resources by relying on social media services becomes an
interesting and important issue for learners, tutors, and courseware
providers.
TOPICS
In this special issue, we solicit high quality papers that cover the
technical issues and systems that apply social media services to
ubiquitous learning and/or adaptive tutoring. We are also interested in
papers that provide an overview and discuss future directions of
social-media-enabled learning and tutoring services. The topics of
interest include, but are not limited to:
* Ubiquitous learning with social media technologies
* Adaptive and intelligent tutoring with social media services
* Courseware engineering with social media
* Web 2.0 technologies for multimedia learning and tutoring
* Collaborative learning in social networks
* Game-based learning through social media
* Personalized learning within social networks
* Social learning environments
* Social networks analysis and mining to support multimedia learning
* Multimedia content processing in social learning environments
* Multimedia-enabled learning in social networks
* Multimedia question-answering services
* Mobile social learning environments
