*CALL FOR PAPERS – ECIS 2017 Track "Business Models in a Digitized World"*
http://www.ecis2017.eu/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/ECIS2017-T31.pdf
**
25th European Conference on Information Systems (ECIS 2017)
June 5-10, 2017, Guimarães, Portugal (http://www.ecis2017.eu)
*Deadline for paper submissions: December 3, 2016*
***********************************************************
*TRACK DESCRIPTION:*
Rapid developments in ICT and digitization have brought about tremendous
changes to existing firms practically in all traditional industries,
including retail, travel, finance and manufacturing, to name a few.
Furthermore, ICT and digitalization have provided new opportunities to
digital startups such as Etsy, Uber, Snapchat and Spotify, as well as
new e-commerce enterprises such as Zappos or Zalando. Even the digital
and ICT incumbents, such as Amazon.com and Apple, need to constantly
re-evaluate and develop their business models in order to stay ahead of
the competition. The purpose of this track is to explore new ways of
theorizing and contextualizing IS in this digitized world using the
business model concept (e.g. Hedman and Kalling 2003; Veit et al. 2014).
This track aligns well with the ECIS 2017 conference theme “Information
Systems for a Smart, Sustainable and Inclusive World” since
digitally-induced business model innovation and transformation often
expedites resource efficiency, customer engagement, and the innovative
use of various information sources. Full research paper and
research-in-progress paper submissions are encouraged from all
theoretical and methodological perspectives drawing from IS,
entrepreneurship, marketing, strategic management and related disciplines.
Topics include but are not limited to:
• The use of the business model concept by ICT-driven firms
• Innovation of business models through ICT
• Interrelationships of 'fit' between ICT, organization,
business model, and performance
• Industry-specific classification schemes of business
models (e.g. social media business model types)
• Interplay of different business model components and their
configuration (e.g. product-market fit: Value proposition and customer
needs)
• Business model validation: Novel ICT-driven approaches to
validate hypotheses about different business model components (e.g. A/B
tests, lab and field experiments)
• Evaluation and simulation of new or existing business models
• Development of tools and languages for the description and
simulation of business models
• Modeling the relationship between business models and
business process models
• Development and evaluation of new business models in the
era of
− social media,
− sharing economy,
− smartphones,
− internet of things,
− cloud computing and software-as-a-service
− crowdsourcing,
− big data analytics,
− open data,
− platform-mediated services on two-sided/many-sided markets,
− electronic payments (e.g. Google Wallet), currencies (e.g. Bitcoin)
and technologies (e.g. mobile, social, ...)
• Digital transformation of business models
− from online to mobile world
− from traditional to multichannel/omnichannel world
− from on-premise to cloud products and services

=================================================
Track Description:
==================
Many scholars have emphasized the importance of (big) data, information, and knowledge assets for smart decision support, sustainable management, and leadership. Consequently, knowledge management (KM) is essential for organizations’ daily business, directly influencing competitive advantage and business development in a smart world. Eventually, KM per se aims at the sustainable development of knowledge exchange and preservation, from the individual to the team/group to the organizational level and beyond, in a globalized world.
Main goal of this track is to gather current research trends in KM with a focus on smart, sustainable, and inclusive knowledge environments. KM has become an interdisciplinary research field – the traditional gap between researchers from a technology versus a human-oriented angle has been bridged by holistic, interdisciplinary approaches. This is highly necessary due to the context of research: organizations are more and more distributed, the need for sustainable management of knowledge-intensive processes becomes still higher. We currently see strong developments towards research on social and inclusive aspects (like the use of social software for business and private purposes across generations) as well as towards global organizations (like smart KM solutions for offshoring, inter-organizational KM, etc.). The influence of geographical dispersion, communication across time zones, or national/cultural influence factors needs to become a focus issue in research. Particularly, collaboration takes place in different smart social or cultural environments. Due to the usage of collaborative technologies like social software, organizational and national boundaries become more blurred and knowledge can be diffused much easier. Openness and inter-organizational collaboration build the global pathway of rich, contextualized and sustainable knowledge sharing activities among networked persons within and beyond organizational boundaries. Furthermore, in an increasingly globally distributed world, organizations and knowledge workers are required to exploit relationships with others and to gain benefits out of such relationships. Eventually, KM supports dealing with the demographic change by, for example, providing inclusive measures like age-based learning offers for elderly persons.
The KM track aims to promote multi-disciplinary contributions dealing with a managerial, an economic, a methodological, a cultural or a technical perspective. Submissions based on theoretical research, design research, action research, or behavioral research are encouraged. We welcome both full research papers and research in progress papers.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
===================================================
* Capturing and sharing knowledge in social networks and distributed contexts
* Cross-organizational, cross-border and cross-cultural KM
* Sustainability of indigenous knowledge and knowledge societies
* KM and the demographic change
* KM and smart cities
* KM in the cloud
* Support for mature KM solutions: KM governance, KM strategies, KM maturity models, and KM performance
* Social and behavioral issues in KM
* Mobile technologies and social software usage in KM
* KM and learning
* Sustainable KM: securing and protecting knowledge
* KM and risk management

Betreff: [AISWorld] CfP in Business & Information Systems Engineering:
Smart Cities and Digitized Urban Management
Datum: Thu, 6 Oct 2016 15:59:12 +0000
Von: Tobias Brandt <brandt(a)rsm.nl>
An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org>
Call for Papers
Special Issue in Business & Information Systems Engineering on "Smart Cities and Digitized Urban Management"
The Smart City concept stands at the confluence of several global technological, socioeconomic, and environmental megatrends. On the technological front, Big Data, analytics, block chain, and the Internet of Things enable an ever more interconnected network of people, services, and infrastructures. On the socioeconomic front, urbanization drives people to the cities in search for a better life, demographic developments alter the very structures of society, and a new wave of migration uproots people and recombines social and cultural backgrounds of populations around the globe. Finally, from an environmental perspective, climate change and pollution make entire stretches of land uninhabitable, endanger coastal areas on every continent, and are a widespread cause of unrest and strife.
Cities are where these trends meet, being the cause of and solution to many of the associated challenges. Cities are responsible for most of the emissions heating the planet, but they are also the places where people turn to and move to, where even small adjustments can have tremendous impact. This is particularly relevant for some individual cities (e.g., in Asia) that show a tendency to grow together towards enormous metro-regions with unprecedented sustainability challenges. Simultaneously, the interaction and integration of smart cities with their outskirts as well as more rural "satellites" becomes a pressing issue.
Using information systems to improve all of the facets of urban life is the core of the Smart City paradigm. Therefore, this special issue seeks high-quality theoretical, empirical, and design-oriented contributions that outline and demonstrate how IS research can affect and improve urban socio-technical systems and address the issues outlined previously. As the topic is inherently transdisciplinary, we are particularly looking for manuscripts that seek to have an impact within and outside the IS discipline.
All defining aspects of "smart cities" such as transport, energy, waste, buildings, living, government, economy, and people are of interest. Relevant topic areas include, but are not limited to:
· Information systems for intergenerational collaboration in urban quarters
· Sharing economy and resource efficiency
· Energy informatics and urban smart grids
· Emergency response and climate change action
· Information technology for coastal management and protection
· E-government initiatives for local inclusion in smart city quarters
· Urban, inter-urban and urban-rural intermodal mobility and smart transportation
· IS-induced business model innovation for smart cities
· IS-enabled citizen acceptance and user-participation/community-sourcing in smart city concepts
· Migration and cultural inclusion
· Open data and local governments
Submission
Authors are asked to submit their papers online by 01 July 2017 via the journal's submission system Editorial Manager (http://www.editorialmanager.com/buis/).

CALL FOR PAPERS
MIS Quarterly Executive
June 2017 Special Issue
"Digital Business Transformation and the Changing Role of the IT Function"
****************************************************************************

MOTIVATION
Digital business transformation has a dramatic impact on the corporate
world. Technological trends such as big data, the internet of things,
mobile computing and cloud computing significantly influence processes,
products, services and business models. The potential benefits resulting
from this digitization trend are enormous. At the same time, these
disruptive technologies and business models are forcing companies to
rethink their strategies and capabilities – and to do so quickly.
Well-established companies, in particular, face pressure from start-ups
with their extraordinary potential for rapid innovation and high level
of implementation competence.
Due to its inherent technology focus, the digitization trend has
increased the importance of information technology and heightened
demands on companies’ IT functions. Accordingly, besides ensuring the
regular IT operations, IT functions are increasingly requested to
proactively identify technological innovations and to rapidly transfer
them into marketable solutions – and with that to directly contribute to
the company’s overall success. Many IT functions do not have the
necessary structures, processes and abilities to systematically develop
business innovations. Additionally, they are often perceived as being
too bureaucratic, hardly flexible and not on a par with the business
departments. Hence, the IT function is undergoing a change that
comprises new modes of internal organization as well as new forms of
collaboration and alignment with other business departments.
Furthermore, many IT units are taking on responsibility for providing
digital services directly to the enterprise’s customers and consumers.
Given the importance of these changes to IT practice, MISQE is seeking
papers for a special issue that will explore how IT functions can cope
with the changes brought on by the digital economy, and how IT functions
can enable, support or even drive the digital business transformation.
With this special issue, we hope to contribute to discussions about the
implications of digitization on the IT function, its structures,
processes and people, as well as about the adjustments that are
necessary to address the new challenges.
POSSIBLE TOPICS INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO
Organizational change, governance and business/IT relationship
o New organizational designs
o Bi/multimodal / two-speed / multi-speed IT organization
o New collaboration and alignment models between (digital) business and IT
o Demand management for developing digital services
o Changing IT governance structures and budgeting processes
o Role of the CIO / CDO
New IT capabilities
o Digital strategy development
o IT innovation management approaches
o Technology scouting
o Managing risks of digitization
Changes in the IT value chain / sourcing
o Changing integration of external partners
o New sourcing models and partners
o Integration of external innovation capacities

Betreff: [AISWorld] Mobile Data Analytics, Call for Papers -- IEEE IT
Professional; Submission deadline: 15 October 2016

CALL FOR PAPERS

Mobile Data Analytics
Submission deadline: 15 October 2016
Publication: May/June 2017
Mobile data analytics (MDA) is an area of growing relevance and interest
among IT professionals, entrepreneurs, and academics. MDA deals with data
analytics, particularly big data analytics, on resource-constrained mobile
devices. The proliferation of mobile commerce, growth in mobile
advertisements, implicit and explicit massive application-level data
collection by mobile app vendors, and data generated by social networks
necessitate data correlation and the discovery of meaningful patterns and
helpful insights from collected data. Moreover, the growth of the Internet
of Things that connects various devices and objects and gathers a variety of
data, and the widespread use of mobile and wireless devices, contribute
heavily to the evolution of mobile data. MDA offers ample opportunities to
enhance mobile user experience, generate new insight and foresight, and
increase revenue.
However, MDA demands heavy processing and large memory and storage
capabilities normally unavailable in mobile devices, and presents several
challenges: how to store and retrieve big data from mobile devices, how to
build lightweight solutions that generate insight from massive structured
and unstructured data, and how to visualize these data on a small screen.
This issue of IT Professional seeks to present readers with mobile data
analytics trends, issues, novel solutions, and applications. We are
soliciting articles from industry, business, academia, and government on
various topics, including the following:
* Software and tools for mobile and data analytics
* Cloud-based mobile data analytics
* Mobile big data management and analytics
* Enterprise mobility analytics
* Emerging/novel mobile analytics models
* Mobile data mining and machine learning
* Mobile social community intelligence
* Mobile data analytics privacy and legal issues
* Visualization of mobile data analytics
* Mobile and data analytics case studies
Submissions
Feature articles should be no longer than 4,200 words and have no more than
20 references (with tables and figures counting as 300 words each).
Illustrations are welcome. Articles should be novel, have a practical
orientation, and be written in a style accessible to practitioners. For
author guidelines, including sample articles, see
www.computer.org/web/peer-review/magazines.
Submit your article at https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/itpro-cs.
