-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP: AMCIS 2017 Mini-Track: Socio-Technical Challenges in Smart City Development Datum: Thu, 2 Feb 2017 12:05:47 +0000 Von: peng alex <alexchaox(a)hotmail.com> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> *CALL FOR PAPERS - AMCIS 2017, Boston, August 10-12, 2017* http://amcis2017.aisnet.org/ *Mini-Track: Socio-Technical Challenges in Smart City Development * *part of " Social Technical and Social Inclusion Issues (SIGSI)" We warmly invite your submissions to the mini-track on "Socio-Technical Challenges in Smart City Development". *Mini-track Description* It is increasingly recognized by governors, information systems researchers and industrial practitioners that, although the smart city concept is driven by advanced information technologies, its success can be highly influenced by a wide range of socio-technical factors and challenges. However, an extensive review of the current literature suggested that the majority of smart city studies focused mainly on the technical and engineering aspects, such as smart city IT architecture, operational algorithms, engineering models, prototype designs, and smart testbeds. In contrast, there is a significant scarcity of studies to explore potential social, cultural, political, ethical, managerial, organizational, and human aspects related to the design, development, deployment and usage of smart technologies, systems and services in different societal and city contexts. This minitrack thus aims to serve as a forum to bridge this knowledge gap, as well as to offer a socio-technical angle and a n information systems perspective to complement the very technical view in the current smart city research agenda. *Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:* - Public trust, user acceptance, user behaviors, citizen needs, and citizen engagement in smart city services; - Impacts of smart technologies and systems on people, organisations, and the whole ecosystem of cities; - Behaviour changes led by the daily usage of smart city services and facilities; - Technochange management in smart cities; - Emerging economic, business and service models in smart cities - Data integration, data governance and data management issues in smart cities - Cultural, organizational, institutional, and any other socio-technical challenges affecting the development and deployment of smart solutions in the context of specific cities. *Important Dates* - January 09, 2017: Manuscript submissions for AMCIS papers begin - March 01, 2017: Deadline for AMCIS paper submissions due 1 pm EST - April 17, 2017: Notification of initial decision on submitted papers - April 25, 2017: Deadline for camera-ready revisions - April 28, 2017: Notification of decision on revised camera-ready papers *Mini-track Chairs* - Guochao Alex Peng, Professor, School of Information Management, Sun Yat-Sen University, China - Miguel Nunes, Dean and Professor, School of Information Management, Sun Yat-Sen University, China _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP - AMCIS 2017 Minitrack: Virtual Communities and Social Media in Health Care Datum: Wed, 1 Feb 2017 17:22:26 +0000 Von: Brenda L. Eschenbrenner <eschenbrenbl(a)unk.edu> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Call for Papers 23rd Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS'17) August 10-12, 2017 Boston Track: Virtual Communities and Collaboration Minitrack: Virtual Communities and Social Media in Health Care Description: Virtual environments provide new platforms for individuals to acquire and share information regarding health concerns. Virtual communities can provide an additional means for patients to provide support to one another facing similar health issues. Healthcare providers are utilizing virtual environments to connect with patients and consult with other providers, while healthcare organizations are creating new ways to manage and improve healthcare operations. Virtual environments present new channels to educate the public on various topics such as healthcare crises or managing chronic diseases. It also provides opportunities to garner information from individuals to identify emerging issues, such as flu epidemics. However, concerns also arise with leveraging virtual environments for healthcare-related purposes, such as patient privacy and information accuracy. Hence, this minitrack seeks to explore the opportunities as well as the issues associated with virtual communities and social media in health care. We encourage paper submissions that study the development, use, and assessment of virtual communities and social media in healthcare, which can be from a variety of perspectives (e.g., patient, healthcare provider, and healthcare organization). We welcome papers that study the application of virtual communities and social media in this context as well as challenge such applications. This minitrack is open to both theoretical and empirical studies, and is open to all research methods (e.g., survey, field study, case study, experimentation). Potential topics may include (but are not limited to): * Development of frameworks for evaluating virtual communities and social media in health care * Theoretical models describing the development, use, and assessment of virtual communities and social media in health care * Research on novel, innovative uses of virtual technologies and data analytics for health care communities and social media * Examinations of implementations, adoptions, and outcomes of virtual communities and social media in health care along with factors influencing these activities * Meta-analyses and meta-syntheses of research and the implications for virtual communities and social media in health care * Issues, limitations, and barriers surrounding virtual communities and social media in health care Submission Process: Paper submissions must be made electronically through AMCIS 2017 Manuscript Submission Site https://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/amcis2017. Papers will be peer reviewed using a double-blind system. Important Dates: January 9, 2017: ScholarOne opens for Completed and ERF paper submissions March 1, 2017 (1:00p.m. EST): Completed and ERF paper submissions due April 17, 2017: Initial decisions for Completed Papers and ERFs More information is available at https://amcis2017.aisnet.org/ or by contacting the minitrack co-chairs.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP - BPM@Cloud: 1st International Workshop on Business Process Management in the Cloud Datum: Wed, 1 Feb 2017 20:45:20 +0200 Von: Kyriakos Kritikos <kritikos(a)ics.forth.gr> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org Call for Papers 1st International Workshop on Business Process Management in the Cloud - BPM@Cloud 2017 in conjunction with the 7th International Conference on Cloud Computing and Services Science - CLOSER 2017 OFFICIAL WORKSHOP URL: http://closer.scitevents.org/BPM@Cloud.aspx DESCRIPTION: To reduce costs as well as allow a more flexible provisioning of their business processes (BPs) and services, organisations are continuously thinking to move to the cloud. However, most of them do not have the appropriate expertise towards performing this move. As such, there is a need of platforms which are able to realise respective methods, techniques and algorithms that provide the appropriate cloud-based support level to these organisations. This support level should enable organisations to check which parts of their business processes should be moved to the cloud as well as cater for bridging the gap between the business and IT level. Moreover, it should assist in the allocation, publishing, execution, monitoring, evaluation and adaptive provisioning of these business processes, thus catering for their appropriate management based on the four main lifecycle activities of BP design, allocation, execution and evaluation. By moving and offering business processes in the cloud, the notion of Business Process as a Service (BPaaS) is realized which is projected to become quite profitable for the organisations participating in its value chain which can play the role of Brokers, BPaaS management platform operators, or software developers. Thus, BPaaS not only caters for migrating existing BPs in the cloud but can also become a novel exploitation product in the cloud stack that will further boost the adoption of cloud computing. The workshop invites research papers that deal with any subject that is relevant for the realization of the BPaaS vision according to either business, technical or both perspectives. Research and development work on facilitating any kind of management for BPs in the cloud is more than welcome as well as innovative work that attempts to deal with the well-known business-to-IT alignment problem. Research that advances the state-of-the-art in cloud computing in areas related to BP management (e.g., cloud orchestration) are considered quite relevant. Novel cloud platforms supporting the advertisement and management of business process or workflows are also relevant. Finally, papers focusing on conveying practical knowledge or important issues related to moving or managing BPs in the cloud are also welcome. TOPICS: Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Cloud-based Business Process Migration: - Novel methods and techniques on cloud migration - Novel methods and techniques for moving business processes in the cloud * Cloud-aware Business Process Modelling: - Business Process Modelling - Semantic Business Process Languages and Ontologies - Hybrid Business Process Modelling - Goal-Oriented Modelling of Business Processes - (Semantic) Cloud Service Description Languages - KPI Modelling Languages & Ontologies - Cross-Layer Metric Models (from business to infrastructure layer) * BPaaS Design & Alignment: - Business process to workflow alignment - Semantic Composition of business services - BPaaS Discovery & Composition - BPaaS & Business Service Model Repositories - BPaaS Design Methodologies and Methods - BPaaS Design Environments & Tools * BPaaS Allocation: - Cloud Service Matchmaking - Cloud Service Selection - Semantic Cloud Service Discovery and Selection - Cloud-based Workflow Concretisation - Cross-layer Cloud Service Selection & BPaaS Deployment Reasoning - Business to technical non-functional requirements mapping - BPaaS Deployment Description - BPaaS Allocation Environment & Tools * BPaaS Execution: - Cross-Layer Cloud Service Monitoring - Cross-Cloud Service Monitoring - Cross-Layer BPaaS Adaptation - Adaptive BPaaS Execution - Cloud Service Orchestration - Cloud-based Workflow Management - Semantic Logging - BPaaS Execution Environments & Tools * SLA-based BPaaS Management: - Semantic SLA Description - Hierarchical SLAs - SLA Mapping between hierarchy levels - SLA Management Frameworks * BPaaS Evaluation: - KPI Analysis & Drill-Down - (Conceptual) Analytics - (Semantic) Process Mining - Business Intelligence Knowledge Extraction Algorithms & Tools - Best BPaaS Deployment Discovery - Adaptation & Deployment Rules Derivation - Data Extraction & Linking for BPaaS Evaluation - BPaaS Evaluation Environments & Tools IMPORTANT DATES: - Paper Submission: February 20, 2017 - Authors Notification: March 1, 2017 - Camera Ready and Registration: March 13, 2017 PAPER SUBMISSION: - Prospective authors are invited to submit papers in any of the topics listed above. - Instructions for preparing the manuscript (in Word and Latex formats) are available at: http://closer.scitevents.org/Templates.aspx - Please also check the Guidelines at http://closer.scitevents.org/Guidelines.aspx. - Papers must be submitted electronically via the web-based submission system using the appropriated button on this page.
