Fwd: [AISWorld] CFP: SPECIAL ISSUE - Information Ethics from an Islamic Perspective
by Gustaf Neumann 23 Jan '16

23 Jan '16

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP: SPECIAL ISSUE - Information Ethics from an Islamic Perspective Datum: Sat, 23 Jan 2016 08:11:17 +0400 Von: Salam Abdallah <isalam(a)gmail.com> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org CALL FOR PAPERS Information Ethics from an Islamic Perspective *Call for Papers for *International Review of Information Ethics* (IRIE) * http://www.i-r-i-e.net/ *Vol. 25 (08/2016)* edited by Salam Abdallah, Jared Bielby, Mahmood Sangari, Mahmood Khosrowjerdi - Deadline for extended abstracts: *15th February 2016* - Notification of acceptance to authors: *15th March 2016* - Deadline for full articles: *30th May 2016* - Deadline for revised articles: *15th July 2016* - Publication: *August 2016* Researchers in information ethics have gone back in history as far as Aristotle and Descartes to seek ways, and develop principles, to resolve ethical quandaries arising from advancements in information and communication technologies. In the realm of published work, several studies have investigated the ethical dimensions of moral viewpoints and philosophies. For most of these stud-ies, however, emphasis has been drawn from secular and western philosophies, and religion has not been a point of contention. An ethical system comprising religious laws, specifically the Islamic doctrine, has rarely been addressed by ethical theorists, despite its potential for being a compre-hensive source of wide ranging principles that can be used to govern ethical decisions and guide moral behavior. Islam and its vast reservoir of knowledge can provide an alternative paradigm towards viewing information ethics. Islamic ethics derive from the Quran - a divine source, the Sunnah, and the Islamic jurisprudence that govern all aspects of life. An Islamic ethical system should also merit attention because it is generally believed that Islamic principles can be flexible and adaptable to many new situations such as those demanded by the confluence of information technology and ethics. While we acknowledge the importance of the spiritual realm of Islam, our interest in the following edition is on the extraction of principles and theories from the religious landscape of Islam towards its potential application to information ethics dilemmas. *Possible Topics and Questions* This issue of IRIE attempts to explore the political, social, and ethical dimensions of big data. We welcome the exploration of, while not restricting to, the following subject areas: Starting from the premise that Islamic law is based on a complete system of morality and that it can be a rich source of knowledge towards providing a moral context for information, as well as information ethics from a legal perspective, we invite manuscripts dealing with the different aspect of Islamic ethics, and specifically related to the philosophy of information and information ethics. The purpose of this special edition of the International Review of Information Ethics is to share the Is-lamic perspective on information ethics in order to stimulate new ways of thinking that extends the field of Islamic ethics to the development of a global body of applicable theories and practices. Research topics may be theoretical or applied, philosophical-theological, or sociological. Areas of research relevant to this issue include (but are not limited to): - Digital global citizenship - Comparative philosophies - Islamic information ethics as per Capurro's Trliemma, Luciano Floridi, and others - Islamic Epistemic Foundations of Ethics - Comparative religious and none religious perspectives - The ethical system of Islam in resolving information ethics dilemmas - The Information society from an Islamic perspective - Islamic ethics and emerging technologies - Artificial intelligence and Islamic ethics *Guest Editors:* Salam Abdallah, Abu Dhabi University, United Arab Emirates, Email: salam.abdallah(a)adu.ac.ae <http://www.i-r-i-e.net/salam.abdallah@adu.ac.ae> Jared Bielby, MA/MLIS, Co-chair, ICIE; University of Alberta, Canada, Email: bielby(a)ualberta.ca <http://www.i-r-i-e.net/bielby@ualberta.ca> Mahmood Sangari, PhD candidate, Department of Information Sciences and Knowledge Studies, Faculty of Psychology and Educational Science, Kharazmi University, Tehran, Iran, Email: msangary(a)gmail.com <http://www.i-r-i-e.net/msangary@gmail.com> Mahmood Khosrowjerdi, editor of Infropreneurship, PhD candidate, Philosophy of Information at Oslo and Akershus Universities, Email: mkhosro(a)gmail.com <http://www.i-r-i-e.net/mkhosro@gmail.com> For further information, especially on how to submit a paper, please refer to: *Information Ethics from an Islamic Perspective - Call for Papers* cfp-pdf-fulltext (30 KB) <http://www.i-r-i-e.net/inhalt/CFPs/cfp-IRIE-25-islamic-infoethics-2016.pdf> (right click and select "Save Target As") _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

Fwd: [AISWorld] 2nd Call for papers: Special Issue on Patient-centered Personalized eHealth
by Gustaf Neumann 22 Jan '16

22 Jan '16

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] 2nd Call for papers: Special Issue on Patient-centered Personalized eHealth Datum: Fri, 22 Jan 2016 21:53:50 +0200 Von: Tsvika Kuflik <tsvikak(a)is.haifa.ac.il> Antwort an: tsvikak(a)is.haifa.ac.il Organisation: University of Haifa An: AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org Call for papers: Special Issue on Patient-centered Personalized eHealth User Modeling and User-Adapted Interaction: The Journal of Personalization Research (UMUAI) Extended abstract submission deadline: February 15, 2016 Paper submission deadline (for accepted abstracts): April 15, 2016 UMUAI Web site: http://www.umuai.org/ Scope of the Special Issue In recent years, patients want to be more involved in their health care. Clinicians acknowledge that involved and empowered patients take more responsibility for their health, which leads to better outcomes. With the advance of ICT, telemonitoring and decision support systems are now being targeted not only at care providers but also at patients. While patients want to be more involved, they do not have the required medical knowledge. On the other hand, physicians have the knowledge, but not the time to adapt that knowledge to all their patients. Traditional clinical decision-support systems (DSS) are aimed at supporting healthcare professionals treat patients by matching clinical knowledge to data of concrete patients, in order to provide patient-specific recommendations to the health care professionals. The clinical knowledge of these traditional systems addresses the clinical condition of the patient but is rarely personalized to the non-clinical considerations of patients (e.g., level of family support, patient autonomy, level of education of the patient). Recently, patient-centered clinical decision support systems have emerged, which envision an alternative scenario in which patients can become users of these systems in addition to care professional. The advice delivered to patients is different than the advice targeted toward physicians. While physicians need to receive support for choosing among treatment alternatives, patients need to receive reminders for performing measurements (e.g., of blood pressure), exercising, and taking medications in accordance to the medical requirements. These recommendations need to be personalized to patients' preferences, such as their normal meal schedule, their level of education, etc. This user-patient duality implies that patient-centered DSSs have to deal with user (patient) modeling in order to personalize the care needs of the concrete patient-users. These systems relate to the patient's clinical parameters but also to patient preferences, psycho-social considerations, functioning and disabilities, or co-morbidities that are particular to each specific patient in order to provide a complete and personalized treatment. In this special issue we will be focusing on Patient-centered clinical decision support systems and ubiquitous technologies that define user models supporting patient personalization. Topics Topics could include but are not limited to the following topics: . Personalized knowledge-based eHealth . Health behavior theories and personalization . Personalized training, coaching and education eHealth applications . Personalized health communication between patients and care providers . Patient model/ patient modeling . Using data analysis technologies (machine learning, data mining, big data, semantic data, data science, etc.) to build personalized patient-centric models and predictive systems . Ubiquitous and personalized eHealth Information Systems . Patient-tailored decision-support . Patient-centered systems (e.g., self-management) https://ssl.gstatic.com/ui/v1/icons/mail/images/cleardot.gif. Managing continuity of care for patients spanning different organizations or care teams within an organization Papers for this special issue should not target personalized medicine in terms of genetics/genomics. While telemonitoring could be an important aspect of personalized eHealth systems, papers need to have a focus on modeling patients/treatments using either knowledge-engineering or data analysis technologies. Paper submission and reviewing process The prospective authors must first submit an extended abstract of no more than 4 single-spaced pages, formatted with 12-pt font and 1-inch margins, through easychair: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=umuai-eHealth-16 by February 15, 2016. This abstract should be preceded by a completed UMUAI self-assessment form that can be found at http://www.umuai.org/self-assessment.html, preferably both in a single PDF file. All submitted abstracts will receive an initial screening by the editors of the special issue. The authors of the abstracts will be notified about the results of the initial screening by February 25, 2016. Abstracts that do not pass this initial screening (i.e., the abstracts that are deemed not to have a reasonable chance of acceptance) will not be considered further. Authors of abstracts that pass the initial screening will be invited to submit the full version of the paper by April 15, 2016. The formatting guidelines and submission instructions for full papers can be found at http://www.umuai.org/paper_submission.html. Papers should not exceed 40 pages in journal format. Each paper submission should note that it is intended for the Special Issue on Patient Centered Personalized eHealth and be submitted via email to the address mentioned in the submission instructions given above (submission(a)umuai.org). Full version papers will follow a second review process that will conclude with a final notification of acceptance or rejection. The tentative timeline for the special issue is as follows: February 15, 2016: Submission of extended abstracts (4 pages) February 25, 2016: Notification regarding abstracts April 15, 2016: Submission of full papers July 1, 2016: First round review notifications October 1, 2016: Revised papers due November 7, 2016: Final notifications due December 7, 2016: Camera-ready papers due January 1, 2017: Publication of special issue Guest editors: Guest editors: Mor Peleg, University of Haifa, Israel. http://mis.hevra.haifa.ac.il/~morpeleg/ <http://mis.hevra.haifa.ac.il/%7Emorpeleg/> morpeleg(a)is.haifa.ac.il Tsvi Kuflik, University of Haifa, Israel http://sites.hevra.haifa.ac.il/tsvikak/ tsvikak(a)is.haifa.ac.il David Riano, Universitat Rovira i Virgili, Spain http://banzai-deim.urv.net/~riano <http://banzai-deim.urv.net/%7Eriano> david.riano(a)urv.net Tsvika Tsvi Kuflik, PhD.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP – JAIS Special Issue: Advances in Qualitative IS Research Methodologies Datum: Fri, 22 Jan 2016 18:07:08 +0000 Von: JAIS <JAIS(a)comm.virginia.edu> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> The Journal of the Association for Information Systems (JAIS) announces a call for papers for an upcoming special issue, Advances in Qualitative IS Research Methodologies. Complete details may be found on the JAIS website: http://aisel.aisnet.org/jais/ Guest co-editors: Dubravka Cecez-Kecmanovic, UNSW, Australia Robert Davison, The City University of Hong Kong, China Walter Fernandez, UNSW, Australia Patrick Finnegan, UNSW, Australia Shan Pan, UNSW, Australia Suprateek Sarker, University of Virginia, USA Background The purpose of the Special Issue is to foster and contribute to methodological advances of qualitative research including new philosophical approaches and innovative research designs and methods that enable more profound, critically engaged, practically relevant and reflexive insights into IS and organizing in the digital era. We invite IS scholars to think differently about these emerging and increasingly intertwined social and technological phenomena and explore bold vision and methodological innovations in conducting IS inquiries. Building on the rich tradition of epistemological and methodological debates in IS and social sciences more broadly, this Special Issue aims to: - Provide an unconventional forum for a critical reflection and wide-open debate on fundamental issues in IS research: paradigmatic and philosophical foundations, epistemological and methodologies choices, and implications for knowledge production, justification and relevance; - Stimulate epistemic developments above and beyond the well-trodden methodological paths to encourage and equip IS researchers to grapple with the complex and emerging IS phenomena of the digital age; and - Advance IS research by proposing, developing, and show-casing new, visionary and innovative qualitative research methodologies and methods/techniques, and illustrating their contributions to knowledge creation. We encourage scholars to submit works that contribute to these key aims. Papers of a methodological and conceptual nature as well as those that are empirical are welcome. While contributing to any of the three aims, the papers may focus on, but are not restricted to, the following: General themes: - epistemological concerns, methodological concerns and concerns with methods – reviews and critical reflections on IS research practices; tensions and challenges of aligning epistemology to methodology and then to method(s) - methodological questions of adopting new philosophies/approaches in IS research (e.g. sociomateriality, practice theory, process theorizing); - alternative modes of IS inquiry - innovative approaches, methodologies and methods; new forms and challenges of knowledge production; technologically enabled and assisted IS inquires; - revisiting generalizability in IS research – past debates vs future challenges; - new and emerging IS phenomena/objects/foci/domains in the digital era, such as: digitization processes in private, public and third sector; social networking; virtual(izing) reality; openness phenomena (open innovation, value co-creation); global sourcing and crowdsourcing; new technology-enabled modes of working and organizing; electronic markets; vertical and horizontal transformation of industries; enterprise systems, globalization and transformation of organizations; - qualitative research and methodological challenges in the era of Big Data; - new answers to old questions: does IS research matter in practice (and for whom) and why should we care? - new strategies and genres for representing qualitative research in electronic journals such as the Journal of the AIS. These themes can be explored on their own and also as part of the following tracks: - Methodological advances in case study research including new perspectives/ approaches in case study research of emerging IS phenomena; methodological challenges in multiple cases research; theorizing from cases – new methods and challenges; - Methodological advances in field/ethnography/virtual ethnography research including: new ways of doing field work underpinned by novel approaches; field work in new digital environments (virtual, global, distributed, algorithmic worlds); unleashing discovery and learning from field work; - Methodological advances in action research including different ontological and epistemological assumptions and their implications in conducting Action Research; integration or comparison of the variants of Action Research; innovative ways of approaching and doing Action Research and advancing theoretical and practical contributions of Action Research; - Methodological advances in Grounded Theory approaches to knowledge production and theory building including: innovative ways of grounded theory development; challenges of grounded approaches in case study and field study inquiries, and technological assistance in grounded knowledge production and theory building. Researchers are invited to submit their paper that addresses one of the nominated themes/tracks and clearly contributes to the Special Issue aims. Authors will have an opportunity to present their papers at two workshops one held in Istanbul before ECIS 2016 (see https://jaisqual.wordpress.com/), and the other held in Sydney just before ACIS 2016 (which will be held in Wollongong). Participation in a workshop is not compulsory for the submission of a paper to the Special Issue. However, presenting a draft paper at a workshop will be very helpful to the authors for getting early feedback before submitting a paper to the Special Issue. Important submission dates (a complete list of dates is posted in the call on the JAIS website) 21 Feb 2016 - Deadline for submission of extended abstracts for the pre-ECIS workshop (Istanbul) https://jaisqual.wordpress.com/ 9 Aug 2016 - Deadline for submission of extended abstracts for the pre-ACIS workshop (Sydney) 1 Feb 2017 - Deadline for full paper submissions to the Special Issue Abstracts should be mailed to the workshop organizing co-chairs: Michael Cahalane, UNSW, Australia (m.cahalane(a)unsw.edu.au) Daniel Schlagwein, UNSW, Australia (schlagwein(a)unsw.edu.au) _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

Participate in the Challenge and demonstrate what you can do! The 2nd International Rapid Mashup Challenge launches again a competition between mashup approaches/tools with special attention to their expressiveness and speed. We invite developers and researchers working on mashups, mashup tools and assisting technologies to compete in the creation of the most interesting and/or complex mashup they can develop within a given time boundary, using a given set of source components. The goal of the Challenge is to allow everybody working on mashups and composite Web applications to showcase their ideas and solutions and to establish an event that is both challenging and fun. We are interested in all kinds of mashup composition tools and approaches: from programming languages, domain-specific languages to natural language, from visual modeling tools to textual ones, etc. Submissions will be screened based on relevance, originality and maturity. Admitted contributions will be evaluated as follows: Points will be given (i) by the organizers for the supported mashup features based on the initial submission (see the checklist) and (ii) by the audience for the complexity of the mashup, the elegance of its construction and the showcased features of the mashup tool based on the live demonstration. STRUCTURE OF CHALLENGE Admission: Submit your application by April 15, 2016. The application should include a brief description of proposed tool/approach and a filled feature checklist. Preparation: If your proposal is accepted to the challenge, you will receive a list of Web APIs that are allowed to be used to compose the mashup during the competition. You will thus have a little more than one month before the conference to get ready. Competition: During the ICWE conference you will give a live demonstration of how you build your mashup in exactly 10 minutes. The resulting mashup will be also demonstrated and evaluated by a jury and the audience. Post-Challenge: You have the opportunity to publish a paper explaining your solution to the challenge and giving technical details about your approach and how it was used to rapidly build the mashup. PROCEEDINGS Accepted papers will be published in the proceedings of the Challenge and printed by Springer in its Communications in Computer and Information Science (CCIS) Series.

Enterprise modeling offers a concept to cope with these challenges by using machine processable languages to facilitate the interaction with complex business and technological scenarios, by engaging in knowledge management and by supporting organizational engineering. It thus directly contributes to the design, implementation, use, and evaluation of solutions. Thereby it spans from traditional fields such as business process management and business intelligence to more recent areas such as enterprise architecture and semantic information systems. In this workshop the discussion shall be fostered both on the foundations and applications in enterprise modeling, as well as on the model-based development and evolution of enterprise- wide IS from a conceptual / business perspective. For the description of innovative and rigorously elaborated research results a wide variety of research methodologies are welcomed including but not limited to the use of mathematical modeling, simulation, case studies, and prototyping methodologies. *Important dates:* Workshop paper submission deadline: February 20, 2016 Workshop paper notification to authors: March 16, 2016 Camera-ready paper: March 20, 2016 Workshop: June 14, 2016 *Submissions* For the workshop we solicit high quality contributions in the form of papers according to the LNBIP format (12 pages), which will be presented in 20 minutes presentations + 10 minutes of discussions. The proceedings of all the workshops held in conjunction with CAiSE 2016 will be published as a single volume in the Springer LNBIP series. All papers must be prepared in accordance with the Springer/LNBIP camera-ready format and be submitted electronically (in PDF) via the submission website (https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=enterprise-modeling-2016). All submissions need to be anonymized for peer-review. For each submission at least two peer reviews will be collected from members of the PC.

This phenomenon has changed social interaction, shrinking the world we live in. People are more connected than ever before, providing opportunities for organizations to individual identify and connect to their customers. Social networks have also used to facilitate collaboration and communication within a global environment. As VCs continue to grow in popularity, new communities are continuing to be developed and expanding using new technologies to become more mobile. VC users have more options that ever before with many users selecting among and participating in dozens of virtual communities. With a multitude of VCs to choose from, we need to increase our understanding of factors that lead to success and sustainability of those communities. This special issue focuses on the theoretical and practical issues related to the sustainability of virtual communities and future directions of these networks. We welcome empirical and qualitative research in the area of VCs that will help expand knowledge and understanding of this phenomenon that can be used to inform researchers and practitioners alike.

Fwd: [WI] CfP - HMD Praxis der Wirtschaftsinformatik: Human Capital Management

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [WI] CfP - HMD Praxis der Wirtschaftsinformatik: Human Capital Management Datum: Thu, 21 Jan 2016 12:46:28 +0000 Von: Strahringer, Susanne <susanne.strahringer(a)tu-dresden.de> Antwort an: Strahringer, Susanne <susanne.strahringer(a)tu-dresden.de> An: WI(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de <WI(a)aifb.uni-karlsruhe.de> *Call for Papers *Zeitschrift: HMD Praxis der Wirtschaftsinformatik (http://www.springer.com/hmd <http://www.springer.com/hmd/>) Schwerpunktheft Dezember 2016 (HMD 312): *Human Capital Management Vorschau: *Dass Mitarbeiter einen Wert darstellen, in den es sich zu investieren lohnt, wissen viele Unternehmen schon lange. Aber handeln sie auch danach? Ist der Wandel von der reinen Ressourcenverwaltung hin zum so genannten Human Capital Management (HCM) vollzogen? Auch die Wirtschaftsinformatik versucht in diesem Entwicklungsprozess durch Softwarewerkzeuge und Applikationen, passende Betreiber- und Governance-Modelle sowie intelligente Datennutzung einen Beitrag zu leisten. Ob und in welcher Form ihr dies gelingt, ist Gegenstad des Schwerpunktheftes. Dabei geht es vor allem um die Frage der softwareseitigen Unterstützung von über Personaladministration hinausgehenden Prozessen wie Personalgewinnung und -entwicklung, Kompetenz- und Nachfolgemanagement sowie die Akzeptanz und Nutzungsbarrieren entsprechender Lösungen. Im Themenfeld der reiferen Funktionalitäten sind Fragen der Erhöhung von Wirtschaftlichkeit bei guter oder sogar besserer Servicequalität zum Beispiel durch Self-Service-Systeme nach wie vor von großer Bedeutung. Große Übernahmen in der Softwareindustrie deuten zudem an, dass auch Anwendungsfelder wie das Reisekostenmanagement noch großes Potenzial bieten. Inwiefern auch klassische HR-Funktionalitäten erweitert werden müssen auf einen Personenkreis, der in vielen Unternehmen im Sinne einer „Workforce on Demand“ einen beachtlichen Teil der Arbeit erledigt, ohne zu den eigenen Mitarbeitern zu gehören, wird zunehmend an Relevanz gewinnen. Ob HCM in die Cloud gehört, bzw. welche HR-Services sich für eine Bereitstellung als SaaS eignen, beschäftigt Anwender- wie Herstellerunternehmen. Gerade für kleinere und mittlere Unternehmen kann hier möglicherweise der Schlüssel zum Einstieg in modernere Funktionalitäten liegen. Für große Unternehmen werden sich Hybridstrategien in der Praxis bewähren müssen. Auf der Datenseite gewinnt HCM Analytics zunehmend an Bedeutung, dabei auch die Frage, ob und wie interne Daten mit extern verfügbaren verknüpft werden. Da das Phänomen „people data everywhere“ nicht mehr wegzudenken ist, müssen sich Unternehmen hier verstärkt mit ethischen als auch rechtliche Fragestellungen auseinandersetzen. Auch aus einer IT-Managementperspektive soll das Themenfeld HCM im Schwerpunktheft adressiert werden, z.B. mit Fragen nach der Notwendigkeit einer HR-IT-Strategie, der Gestaltung einer wirksamen HCM-Governance auf Applikationsebene und den Besonderheiten von HCM-IT-Projekten. Mögliche Themenstellungen des Schwerpunktheftes sind u.a.: * HCM-Funktionalitäten (z.B. Wertbeitrag, Nutzungsbarrieren, Nutzungserfahrungen etc.) * HR-IT-Strategie (z.B. Notwendigkeit einer solchen) * HCM-IT-Projekte (z.B. Besonderheiten im Vergleich zu anderen Domänen) * HR Cloud Services (z.B. Eignung, Akzeptanz, Einbindung in on-Premise-Lösungen) * Applikationsgovernance * HCM Analytics * Employee Self Services * eRecruiting * Workforce on Demand * Praxisbeispiele, Fallstudien, Prototypen in den genannten Feldern *Themenvorschläge: *Bitte wenden Sie sich vor einer Einreichung mit Vorschlägen (Thema, kurzes Abstract) an die Herausgeberin des Heftes. *Termine und Fristen: *Einreichung von Vorschlägen bis spätestens: 2. April 2016 (gerne auch früher) Abgabetermin fertiger Beiträge bis spätestens: 15. Juni 2016 Überarbeitung durch Autoren: voraussichtlich im August 2016 (nach Eingang der Gutachten) Erscheinungstermin: Dezember 2016 Autorenhinweise: http://www.springer.com/hmd <http://www.springer.com/hmd/> *Herausgeber des Schwerpunktheftes: *Prof. Dr. Susanne Strahringer Technische Universität Dresden, Fakultät Wirtschaftswissenschaften Lehrstuhl Wirtschaftsinformatik, insb.
