The increased levels of flexibility and engagement provided by the intensive use of mobile and ubiquitous ICT, social media, virtual and augmented reality has fostered the adoption of new learning models in formal contexts. The impact of ICT in learning in informal contexts is also very relevant due to the increased presence of ICT in all aspects of our daily life. To better represent the influence of ICT in lifelong learning, and in line with authors such as Luciano Floridi, we may say that current ICT enable not just online learning but actually onlife learning. The development of the Internet of Things (IoT), or the Internet of Everything, is paving the way to new generations of learning applications and services, due to the expected increase in the capacity of interaction IoT will provide. An intensively technologically mediated territory increases the learning possibilities with strong potential impact both in formal and informal contexts. This infrastructural backbone supports the vision on Smart Cities by influencing and improving key factors like mobility, environment, people, quality of life and governance. In Smart Cities, learning is not only a way to train an adequate human capital, but becomes one of the driving forces of the “smartness” and well being of a community. Unavoidably the underlying and ubiquitous techno-ecosystems - whose embedded intelligence, sensitivity and responsiveness surround the individuals - challenge the future of learning and call for a redefinition of spaces, contents, processes, skills and assessment approaches. The special issue of IxD&A aims at sharing research papers discussing innovative opportunities and challenges on Smart City Learning. Exploratory, case study and prototype evaluation papers are welcome. The workshop and the special issue are supported by the Association for Smart Learning Ecosystems and Regional Development (ASLERD) http://www.mifav.uniroma2.it/inevent/events/sclo/index.php?s=219 established to influence the development of this area from an international perspective.

Fwd: [AISWorld] CfP ECIS 2016 in Istanbul - Track "IS Governance and Control"

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CfP ECIS 2016 in Istanbul - Track "IS Governance and Control" Datum: Fri, 23 Oct 2015 20:15:58 +0000 Von: Wiener, Martin <MWIENER(a)bentley.edu> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> :: CALL FOR PAPERS :: 24th European Conference on Information Systems (ECIS) June 12-15, 2016, Istanbul, Turkey http://www.ecis2016.eu Track: IS Governance and Control http://www.ecis2016.eu/files/downloads/Tracks/T18.pdf *** Deadline for Paper Submission: November 27th, 2015 *** :: Track Description :: The governance and control of information systems (IS) are key activities for deployment of information technology (IT) resources and ultimately for value creation through IT. They thus represent a key responsibility of IS leadership. In today’s environment, the changing nature of the IS infrastructure (e.g., bring your own device [BYOD], cloud computing) as well as the organization and sourcing of IS tasks and functions (e.g., backsourcing, crowdsourcing, open sourcing, outsourcing, offshoring) further increases the demand for effective IS governance and control. At the same time, it challenges existing conceptualizations and theories of IS governance/control. For instance, while cloud services may make the IT artifact seemingly disappear, the efforts of molding organizational routines, usage practices, and IT resources have not disappeared. IS outsourcing/offshoring arrangements span national borders, bridge organizational boundaries, and highlight the intersection of cultures. BYOD and crowdsourcing not only challenge organizational boundaries but also established ideas about ownership of resources, tasks, and outputs. On the other hand, where more “traditional” technologies and organizational arrangements are still dominant, such as for example with ERP packages, the challenges of exercising governance/control over development and implementation efforts remain highly important and complex. The objective of this track is to foster and promote research on IS governance and control by offering new perspectives as well as by providing deeper, richer, and more nuanced insights, which enable IS practitioners to use IT resources more effectively. The track is open to all types of contributions including conceptual, theoretical, and empirical papers (completed research and research in progress) studying governance/control issues in different contexts, at different levels of analysis, and from different theoretical and stakeholder perspectives. We particularly welcome papers that address the conference theme “Information Systems as a Global Gateway” by focusing IS governance and control challenges at the intersection between technological, organizational, national, cultural, social, and other boundaries. The track invites both completed research papers and research in progress papers. *** JITTA Fast-Track Option *** Selected papers will be invited for fast tracking at the Journal of Information Technology Theory and Application (JITTA). Where the authors choose to submit their paper to JITTA, expedited reviews and editor decisions can be expected. :: Track Topics :: Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: · IS Governance: Governance structures, processes, and capabilities; governance of IS/IT architectures and platform ecosystems; new governance models for complex organizations; structure and nature of business-IT relationships; performance effects of IS governance choices; etc. · IS Control: Control of different IS projects and processes (e.g., internal vs. outsourced, traditional vs. agile); control typologies and portfolios; dynamics of control; control in hierarchical vs. lateral controller-controllee relationships; intended vs. unintended (socio-emotional) consequences of control; etc. · Link between IS Governance and Control: Impact of IS governance arrangements on IS control; project management office (PMO) governance, project portfolio management, and other arrangements that allow monitoring, control, and prioritization of IT resources and work between projects; roles and responsibilities of IS project and process stakeholders; etc. · IS Leadership: Executive and board involvement in IS governance/control; distribution of power and decision rights; information flow between decision authorities; etc. · IS Compliance: Interfaces between IS governance/control and IS compliance needs; risk management approaches for meeting regulatory requirements; the role of IS controls within internal and external audits; etc. · Strategy Implementation: Translation of strategic objectives into governance/control practices and structures; governance frameworks for breaking strategic objectives into the particular IT and business units; etc. · Organizational Design: Impact of design choices on governance/control effectiveness; relationship between IT and business architecture; control actions across hierarchical levels; etc. · IS Business Value: Design of appropriate governance structures, processes and capabilities for managing the value of IT investments; value appropriation in intra- vs. interorganizational control relationships; etc. · Sourcing Practices: Decisions and outcomes of various sourcing models including outsourcing, offshoring/nearshoring, crowdsourcing, open sourcing, sourcing in the cloud, shared services, and backsourcing; governance structures that produce sourcing decisions; contractual vs. relational governance; governance of vendor portfolios and multi-vendor strategies; client- vs. vendor-retained capabilities; etc. · Novel theoretical perspectives and research approaches that broaden or challenge our understanding of IS governance and control. :: Track Chairs :: W.

CONFERENCE DATES: 17 - 22 JULY 2016, TORONTO, CANADA TOPIC OF THE SPECIAL SESSION: ============================= Living in the digital business era today, we are witnessing rapid social and technological developments in electronic commerce, mobile commerce, and no-line commerce. Especially the retailing industry is facing rapid changes in consumer behavior and increasing shift towards online commerce in an omni-channel setting. Digital business managers, as well as system engineers, are daily confronted with the challenges resulting from these rapid developments. Among others, designing innovative web, social or mobile user interfaces, along with conversion optimization, are major activities defining firms’ success potential. But, consumers also demand to access different distribution channels by various access technologies independently from their current location even at-home, on-the-way, in-store or even automated. Such scenarios where the consumers switch for example between shopping online at home, via mobile device on the way, locally in a brick-and-mortar store or even without any active interaction (automated) supported by technologies and concepts of the internet of things (IoT, e.g. intelligent refrigerator), are referred to as no-line commerce. Understanding of user behavior and information needs on the one hand, but also relevant concepts, processes, and technologies on the other hand, is an inevitable precondition for designing and managing successful businesses in the context of no-line commerce and innovation. These challenges are collectively best characterized and addressed by HCI in Business, Government and Organizations (HCIB). Theoretical, empirical, and design science research papers are highly welcome. We welcome papers applying different scientific methods, including for instance qualitative research (e.g., case studies), traditional behavioral experiments, and studies using physiological measurement. Your contributions should be related to the following indicative topics and keywords, which outline the spectrum of issues to be addressed in this special session in the context of HCI in Electronic Commerce, Mobile Commerce and No-Line Commerce: *User experience and usability in the context of electronic-, mobile-, and no-line commerce *Trust in commerce, mobile commerce, and no-line commerce and implications on HCI *Concepts and case-studies for HCI in electronic-, mobile-, and no-line commerce *Processes and Business Models related to electronic-, mobile-, and no-line commerce and implications on Human Computer Interaction *Usability studies based on physiological measurements (e.g., eye-tracking, skin conductance, heart rate, or ecg) in the context of electronic-, mobile-, and no-line commerce *Understanding of human behavior and understanding human information needs *Concepts for open innovation and design thinking related to commerce processes *IT Architectures for electronic-, mobile-, and no-line commerce and implications on HCI *HCI relevant aspects for search engine optimization, web analytics, information retrieval and opinion mining in the context of electronic-, mobile-, and no-line commerce *Smart Technologies and IT implication for HCI related to electronic-, mobile-, and no-line commerce -- ---------------------------------------------------- Dr. Markus Helfert School of Computing Dublin City University Glasnevin Dublin 9, Ireland Senior Lecturer and Director Business Informatics Research Group http://www.computing.dcu.ie/big/ Programme Chair: B.Sc. in Enterprise Computing Research Affiliate at: The Open Government Institute (TOGI) Zeppelin Universität, Germany Phone: +49 - 7541 6009 1476 http://www.zu.de IVI Research Fellow http://www.ivi.ie/ Senior Lecturer and Researcher in Information Systems Phone: +353-1-700-8727 Phone: +49 -7541 6009 1476 Fax: +353-1-700-5442 Office: L2.26 Email:markus.helfert@computing.dcu.ie http://www.computing.dcu.ie ---------------------------------------------------- Email Disclaimer "This e-mail and any files transmitted with it are confidential and are intended solely for use by the addressee.

This is the 21st event in the Reliable Software Technologies series, previous ones being held at Montreux, Switzerland ('96), London, UK ('97), Uppsala, Sweden ('98), Santander, Spain ('99), Potsdam, Germany ('00), Leuven, Belgium ('01), Vienna, Austria ('02), Toulouse, France ('03), Palma de Mallorca, Spain ('04), York, UK ('05), Porto, Portugal ('06), Geneva, Switzerland ('07), Venice, Italy ('08), Brest, France ('09), Valencia, Spain ('10), Edinburgh, UK ('11), Stockholm, Sweden ('12), Berlin, Germany ('13), Paris, France ('14), and Madrid, Spain ('15). General Information ------------------- The 21st International Conference on Reliable Software Technologies - Ada-Europe 2016 will take place in Pisa, Italy. Following its traditional style, the conference will span a full week, including a three-day technical program and vendor exhibition from Tuesday to Thursday, along with parallel tutorials and workshops on Monday and Friday. The conference has over the years become a leading international forum for providers, practitioners and researchers in reliable software technologies. The conference presentations will illustrate current work in the theory and practice of the design, development and maintenance of long-lived, high-quality software systems for a challenging variety of application domains. The program will allow ample time for keynotes, Q&A sessions and discussions, and social events. Participants include practitioners and researchers representing industry, academia and government organizations active in the promotion and development of reliable software technologies. The Ada language, a reliable software technology by design, crosses all topics of the conference, which nonetheless also welcomes any other technologies proposed or in use for reliable software. This edition of Ada-Europe also features a focused Special Session on Safe, Predictable Parallel Software Technologies. Following the intensifying trend of usage of Multi-/Many-core systems, it is increasingly important to assess how reliable software technologies need to adapt to these complex platforms, as well as how parallel models need to adapt to domains in which safety and predictability is a must.
