Connected health is an umbrella term used to capture the complexities of
technology enabled care which encompasses topics such as telecare,
telehealth, telemedicine, mHealth, digital health and eHealth services.
Connected health entails the convergence of health information technology,
health informatics, digital media, mobile devices and sensors.
Connected Health is going to be an integral part of the solution to many of
the challenges facing the health, social care and wellness sectors,
especially in enabling more effective integration of care. There is a
growing emphasis on wellness facilitated by technology, wearables,
Smartphone, and programmatic healthy lifestyle changes. These
e-technologies are being used at an increasing rate to encourage patients
to adopt a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, monitored diets
and weight management, as well as improved self-management of their chronic
diseases and overall wellness.
Healthcare systems around the world are facing challenges in containing
costs of the growing demands on the health systems, which is impacted
generally by a growing population, thereby affecting the future
sustainability and the quality of care that healthcare systems have been
designed, and will be able, to deliver. The challenges include constrained
budget, health professional expertise and other resources aside from the
increased costs of advanced medical treatments and pharmaceuticals. The
world’s aging population is also creating increased complexities while
adding to the costs for timely and quality care delivery. As patients
become better informed and more engaged, they are demanding higher quality,
patient-centric and integrated healthcare services.
The promise of technology-assisted connected health is extremely
galvanizing. Today, innovative connected medical devices and remote sensors
can support quality healthcare, and such care delivery can also be further
enhanced through the combined and intelligent applications of big data
analytics, social media, the Internet of things (IoTs) coupled with
relevant software and hardware, for example, electronic health portals and
authenticated medical websites, various applications of patient health
information records, computerized physician order entry and other e-health
systems, including artificial intelligence, surgical robotics, mobile
diagnostics, remote monitoring devices and wearables.

Sirkka Jarvenpaa, The University of Texas at Austin
Digital entrepreneurship is a research area of great significance to the information systems field (Del Giudice & Straub 2011; Davidson & Vaast 2010; Yoo et al. 2010). The leanness by which digital ventures can be incepted and scaled through digital innovation is unprecedented (Huang et al. 2017). Startups and entrepreneurial action in both business and social innovation spaces are flexibly generated from increasingly available and enabling digital technologies. Such action crosses boundaries to create new ways to implement new business models, innovation networks, communities, and ecosystems; attract new and broad audiences; and generate new forms of business and social value. It also increases the speed by which opportunities are generated, lost, and regained. The flexibility and speed of digital entrepreneurship and innovation implies significant implications for business and social leadership, governance, and existing policy landscapes.
There are at least two arenas for digital entrepreneurship and innovation. One is the area of new business and social ventures, where the availability of powerful digital tools and infrastructure leverages the birth, adoption, innovation, and scaling of entrepreneurial action. Another one is the intrapreneurial activity that takes place within already established organizations including incumbent corporations and communities (Del Giudice and Straub 2011), in which groups of individuals generate new path-breaking innovation trajectories fueled by the promises of digital technology (Henfridsson and Yoo 2014).
This special issue invites papers that build and enhance our understanding of these phenomena. We welcome papers from a wide range of disciplines. The special issue is open to a wide variety of existing research methodologies but it also encourages innovation in research methodologies exploring digital entrepreneurship and digital innovation. Implications of findings for theory and practice are essential and we encourage submissions that generate new theory, or extend existing theories.
There is a broad range of exciting questions that digital entrepreneurship and innovation evoke. Questions addressed by papers suitable for the special issue could include the following but by no means are limited to:
* How can our theories better account for digital entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial action, and entrepreneurs?
* How can artifact design in entrepreneurial processes inform new theories?
* How can our research methods be developed to enable better understanding of digital entrepreneurship and innovation?
* What is the critical institutional logics shaping digital entrepreneurship and innovation in organizations and societies? What are the implications for our theories of organizations? Of institutions?
* What is the role of frugal innovation in digital entrepreneurship?
* What are the innovation strategies and digital technologies advancing new forms of entrepreneurship?
* What new digital methods, tools, and technologies are emerging for sensing business and social opportunities?
* How is big data playing a role in digital entrepreneurship?
* How is digital entrepreneurship interacting with and emerging various social network structures to create value?
* What is the role of culture in digital entrepreneurship?
* How are entrepreneurial activities building platforms, ecosystems, and other complex organizational forms?
* How are incumbent firms leveraging digital entrepreneurship through digital innovation?
* How is digital entrepreneurship shaping legal and policy frontiers?
* How is creativity and play embodied in daily life of digital entrepreneurship?
* How do new forms of entrepreneurship create value beyond monetization
* How do entrepreneurs leverage digital platforms to achieve superior performance?
* What is the role of platforms in facilitating or constraining digital entrepreneurship?
* How should artifacts built in digital entrepreneurship settings be evaluated?
To be considered for publication, papers must be submitted electronically by March 31, 2017. In line with JSIS convention, selected manuscripts will be sent out for blind review. Authors are instructed to follow the Guide for Authors and submission guidelines for the journal at the journal’s website,http://www.journals.elsevier.com/the-journal-of-strategic-informati… choosing "Special Issue: Creating Business and Social Value from Digital Entrepreneurship and Innovation” as the paper type in the mailto:sirkka.jarvenpaa@mccombs.utexas.eduonline submission system.

Betreff: [AISWorld] AMCIS 2017 CfP: Digital Crime and Information
Systems Security
Datum: Thu, 12 Jan 2017 17:13:10 +0000

CALL FOR PAPERS
*** AMCIS 2017: Mini-Track on Digital Crime and Information Systems Security ***
August 10-12, 2017, BOSTON, MA, USA
Paper submission deadline: March 1, 2017
https://amcis2017.aisnet.org/
We invite submissions to the Digital Crime and Information Systems Security mini-track, within the Information Systems Security and Privacy track (SIGSec) of AMCIS 2017. The mini-track is aligned with SIGSec’s effort to address the emerging developments in information security. In the realm of digital crime, there are various significant developments, both in the ways in which criminals use technology to commit crime, but also in the ways in which organizations respond to this by developing appropriate countermeasures to fight crime.
Description
Digital crime is costing businesses billions of dollars every year. Besides the heavy toll in resources, recent reports indicate that it can take up to 46 days for companies to fully resolve security incidents. Criminals build on the global reach, anonymity and convenience of ICT and social media to identify and exploit various socio-organizational and technical vulnerabilities. Digital crime is an inherently diverse activity; it covers a wide spectrum between computer-assisted (existing, but digitalized) and computer-enabled (completely novel) types of crime, and spans physical and virtual borders. This mini-track invites the submission of papers that address a variety of issues pertaining to the prevention, detection and response to digital crimes, including criminological and crime science approaches. Interdisciplinary research that examines the causes, forensic investigation processes, or wider economic and societal impact of digital crimes, among other topics, is particularly welcome.
Scope
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
· Digital forensics and fraud investigations
· Criminological studies in Information Security
· Cyber-bullying and cyber-stalking
· Digital fraud and theft
· Cyber-espionage
· Online child exploitation
· Dark Net markets
· Cyber-Law
· Cryptocurrencies and digital crime
· Digital crime detection and prevention
· Economic and financial aspects of digital crime
Important Dates
· Manuscript Submissions Begin: January 9, 2017
· Manuscript Submissions Due: March 1, 2017, 1:00 PM EST
· Notification of Initial Decision: April 17, 2017
Submission Types
· Completed research papers (lesss than 5,000 words, excluding references, tables, and figures)
· Research-in-progress papers (less than 3,500 words, excluding references, tables, and figures)
All conference submissions will be double-blind, peer reviewed, and must be submitted using the online submission system. For complete instructions for authors and information about the conference, visit the AMCIS 2017 website: http://amcis2017.aisnet.org/
Publishing opportunity
All submissions will be considered for possible fast tracking in the Journal of Information System Security (http://www.jissec.org).
