Desouza, Kim Normann Andersen This special issue welcomes contributions on information systems as enablers of innovation in the public sector, at the municipal, state or federal level, in any nation, and even between countries. Information systems are the catalysts for IT-enabled innovations that are transforming the nature of public agencies, the manner in which they design, implement, and evaluate public policy, and the governance of public goods. The goal of this special issue is to advance the state-of-the-art by encouraging groundbreaking, thought-provoking, and novel papers that examine all facets of information systems-enabled innovation in the public sphere. We are specifically interested in papers that push the frontiers on how the implementation of new information systems in the public sector enable strategic innovation. New public sector initiatives around the world include the adoption of IoT in Smart Cities, the use of cloud computing and data analytics for improved decision-making and policy development, the implementation of blockchain to license government assets and transmit records securely, or the incorporation of artificial intelligence applications for the delivery of e-services. In this context, the aim of this special issue is to compile theoretically-grounded and empirically-valid assessments of these initiatives. Papers of interest can be conceptual or empirical, but must advance our understanding of innovation dynamics in the public sphere. Submissions may address any the following topic areas but are not be limited to these: * Emerging IS governance models * Financing IS projects, systems, and organizations * Adoption and assimilation of emerging technologies * Predictive analytics and personalization of public services * Mega-scale IS projects * Public values in information systems innovation * The role of Chief 'X' Officers in the Public Sector (CIOs, CTOs, and CSOs) * Cybersecurity in the Public Sector * IS Outsourcing and public-private partnerships * Digital platforms and ecosystems * Social networking platforms and public opinion * Digital civic activism * The next frontiers of digital divides Please direct your questions related to this special issue to any of the guest editors: Raquel Benbunan-Fich, Baruch College, CUNY [rbfich(a)baruch.cuny.edu] Kevin C.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP - AMCIS 2018 Mini-track: The Dark Side of Information Technology Use Datum: Fri, 5 Jan 2018 20:50:31 +0800 Von: Randy Wong <rymwong(a)life.hkbu.edu.hk> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org Call for Papers - Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS) 2018 New Orleans, LA, August 16-18, 2018 Track: *Adoption and Diffusion of Information Technology* Mini-track: *The Dark Side of Information Technology Use* We invite submissions to the Dark Side of Information Technology Use mini-track at the Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS) 2018 to be held in New Orleans, LA, August 16-18, 2018. Information systems (IS) research traditionally emphasizes the positive values and outcomes (e.g., productivity and enjoyment) of information technology (IT) use. The dark side of IT use (e.g., technology addiction, technostress, information overload) remains an under-explored area of research. Emerging IS research has begun to examine the dark side of IT use that harms the individuals, organizations, and societies. While the dark side of IT use has attracted increasing scholarly attention, the continuous advancement of IT has dramatically increased the scope and intensity of the phenomena. This mini-track provides a forum for the exchange of research ideas and best practices related to the dark side of IT use. It aims to raise awareness of the emerging negative aspects of IT use, and address the challenges of maintaining a productive, enjoyable and healthy use of IT. We invite both completed and research-in-progress papers. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: - Theoretical models explaining relationships between the antecedents and negative outcomes of IT use - Conceptualization and operationalization of the concepts related to dark usage of IT (e.g., misuse, obsessive use, compulsive use, and addictive use) - Theoretical models explaining dark usage of IT - Negative outcomes of IT use in different levels (individual, organizational, societal levels) - Relationships between positive and negative outcomes of IT use - Technological designs and negative outcomes of IT use - Cultural differences and negative outcomes of IT use - Measurements of negative outcomes of IT use - Prevention and intervention programs for reducing levels of negative outcomes of IT use - Legislation for alleviating negative outcomes of IT use - Novel methodological approaches for studying negative outcomes of IT use - Future trends of research on negative outcomes of IT use Important dates - January 15, 2018: System opens for paper submissions - February 28, 2018: Deadline for paper submissions Please find instructions for authors and more information about the conference at: http://amcis2018.aisnet.org/ *Mini-Track Co-Chairs:* Zach W.Y.

Digitization profoundly changes our society and economy and thus the way we live, work, learn, communicate, and collaborate. The interaction of digitally integrated customers, products and services provides new ways of value creation. Digitization is the creation of digital architecture and the use of decision management for enabling innovative business models and transforming existing business models and processes. The session –Digital Architecture and Decision Management – covers fundamental and practical aspects to support the digital transformation of products, services and processes. This disruptive change interacts with all information processes and systems, which are important business enablers for digitization since years. Digital architectures enable the intense interaction with customers and products. The customer is closely integrated with business processes and interacts like a co-worker by using implicit touch points, which are provided by mobility and wearable systems and the Internet of Things. The data collected by these interactions allow to automate decisions impacting the customer. Digitized products and services have dynamically extendable capabilities by accessing external services. Using them they are able to autonomously make decisions hitherto reserved to human beings. Decision Management considers decisions as first- class citizens in management equal to service and processes. It supervises and controls the identification, development, deployment, operation and optimization of decisions and their components. Decision components may be data sources, decision models and decision foundation. By handling decisions separately from processes and services, decision management takes into account that decisions, processes and services evolve at different speeds. Furthermore, decision management increases reuse and consistency of decisions by enabling centralized repositories that provide decisions to services and processes. Our aim is to provide a platform for researchers and practitioners to discuss both technological and business aspects of the digital transformation and to have a deep look into the flexible digital architecture and decision management mechanisms in the context of technologies, platforms, services, and applications, fostering customer experience With disruptive transformation and continuous improvement. Session‘s Topics Digital Architecture * Digitization of Products, Services, Processes, Systems, and Enterprises * Dynamic Capabilities and Digital Enterprise Models * Digital Strategy, Governance, and Management * Security in Digital Architectures * Architectural Patterns for Digitization and Intelligence Analytics * Customer Experience and Interaction Design * Self-optimizing and Resilient Adaptive Systems * Adaptive Software Architectures * Runtime Monitoring of Operation Data * Digital Platforms and Ecosystems * Digitization Technologies: Integrating Internet ofThings, Microservices, REST Services, Services & Cloud Computing, Big Data & Analytics, Social Media, etc. Decision Management * Advanced Analytics and Decision Support for Digital Enterprises * Cognitive Models for Decision Support * Identification and Development of Decisions and Decision Components * Artificial Intelligence Problem Solving for Digitalization * Knowledge Representation, Machine Learning, and Inference * Deployment and Operation of Decisions * Digital Visualization, Interaction, and Augmented Reality * User Roles and Human-centred Problem Solving and Learning * Multi-perspective Architectural Viewpoints, Methods, and Environments * Decision Support Processes and Frameworks * Decision Optimisation * Digital Applications: Digitized Cars, Smart Finance, Smart City, Smart Home, Smart Medicine, Smart Energy, Industry 4.0, 3-D Printing and Production Environments, etc Main Contributing Researchers / Research Centres (will be extended) Witold Abramowicz –Poznan University of Economics and Business, Poland Oliver Bossert –McKinsey & Company, Frankfurt, Germany Lars Brehm–Munich University, Germany Eman El-Sheik –University of West Florida, USA Michael Fellmann–University of Rostock, Germany Bogdan Franczyk –University of Leipzig, Germany Ulrik Franke –RISE SICS AB Stockholm, Sweden Björn Johansson –Lund University, Sweden Selmin Nurcan –The University Paris 1 Pantheon-Sorbonne, France Gunther Piller –University of Applied Sciences Mainz, Germany Kurt Sandkuhl –University of Rostock, Germany Rainer Schmidt –MunichUniversity, Germany Christian Schweda, Reutlingen University, Germany Ulrike Steffens –HAW Hamburg University, Germany Janis Stirna –University of Stockholm,Sweden Matthias Wissotzki –University of Rostock, Germany Alfred Zimmermann –Reutlingen University, Germany ================================================== Contact: =================================================== Alfred Zimmermann Reutlingen University of Applied Sciences Alfred.Zimmermann(a)reutlingen-university.de Rainer Schmidt Munich University of Applied Sciences Rainer.Schmidt(a)hm.edu _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

The digital transformation means that digital usages inherently enable new types of innovation and creativity in various domains. In general, Digital Transformation can be defined as an integration of digital technology into all areas of business, resulting in fundamental changes to how businesses operate and how they deliver value to their customers. The BIS Conference traditionally has focused on actual trends of development, implementation and application of business information systems in different domains. Thus, to continue this tradition, the upcoming edition of BIS will focus on the Digital Transformation that affects both individual businesses and whole domains, such as e.g. administration, communication, art, medicine, healthcare, finance and science. The Digital Transformation is described as "the total and overall societal effect of digitalization". Digitization has enabled the process of digitalization, which resulted in transformation of existing business models, socio-economic structures, legal and policy measures, organizational patterns, cultural barriers, etc. There are a number of reasons why businesses undergo Digital Transformation. The main argument is that they simply have to. With the evolving business markets, companies that want to succeed must understand how to apply technology to support strategical decisions and realise the visions. However, there are many ways how it may be achieved. Thus, the BIS 2018 Conference wants to drive the discussion of Digital Transformation related to problems, challenges and opportunities for today's business markets. We invite researchers and business practitioners to present and publish their latest research results. Our goal is to enable sharing theoretical and practical knowledge of ongoing Digital Transformation activities and thus to inspire researchers to think outside the box. We hope that the inspirations from the Conference will lead to further innovations being the next stage of Digital Transformation. ====================================================================== CONFERENCE TOPICS ====================================================================== Topics include (but are not limited to): Big and Smart Data and Artifical Intelligence * data science and digital transformation * smart machines, artifical intelligence, and cognitive computing in business systems and applications * business intelligence * linked (open) data * knowledge representation and reasoning * big data analytics * real-time big data analysis and streaming analytics / stream reasoning * standards, data models, and business models for big & smart data * corporate semantic web and semantic web applications * digital curation technologies * data and information quality * information extraction and information retrieval * sentiment analysis, emotion mining * data integration from Web information sources * modelling and describing evolving data sources * information gathering for supporting knowledge-intensive enterprises Business and Enterprise Modelling * requirements for enterprise modelling * modelling of enterprise architecture * quality of enterprise models * change management * enterprise modelling theory * enterprise modelling practice, case studies, and action research * decision modelling * governance, risk, and compliance modelling * standards, conceptualizations, notations, and ontologies * business design patterns * business models and (open) innovation ICT Project Management * tools and techniques * stakeholder and user management * effort, time, and cost estimation * resources management * risk management * quality management * global and virtual development teams Process Management * (semantic) business process management * event-driven busines process management * adaptive and dynamic processes * supply chain processes * scientific workflows in a business context * ERP implementations * integration of data and processes * collaborative BPM * value chain design * business rules, decision models, and decision management * complex event processing Smart Infrastructures * cloud computing * fog and edge computing * security and privacy * (micro) services architectures * sensor systems * software-defined infrastructures * smart ledger / blockchain * agent systems and collective intelligence * internet of things and cyber-physical systems * industry 4.0 Social Media and Web-based Business Information Systems * social CRM * social user experience * social media in business * social media and privacy * social media analytics * social network analytics * social computing * social sentimental analysis * communities and crowedsourcing * social semantic web and pragmatic web * web/social web/distributed search * personalized search and recommendation * user interfaces and human computer interaction Applications, Evaluations, and Experiences * smart cities * smart manufacturing * e-business * e-health * e-government * business related e-science * mobile applications * industry specific applications * future directions and interdiciplinary relations ====================================================================== SUBMISSION ====================================================================== BIS 2018 proceedings are planned to be published as a volume in Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing (LNBIP) series by Springer Verlag. http://www.springer.com/computer?SGWID=0-146-6-450209-0 Information for LNBIP authors may be found at http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs?SGWID=0-164-6-791344-0 Submission: http://bis.ue.poznan.pl/bis2018/submission-guidelines/ * language of publication: English * paper must not exceed 12 LNBIP pages (including abstract and references)* * please include a 100-word abstract at the beginning of the paper, which clearly presents the achievement or contribution of the paper * please include 4-7 keywords best describing your paper * we understand that you submit your original work that has not been published or submitted elsewhere, and that you agree to publish your work when it is accepted by the Program Committee;

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: ECEL 2018 First call for papers for the 17th European Conference on e-Learning Datum: Thu, 4 Jan 2018 16:46:46 +0000 Von: ACPIL Updates <ACPIL.Updates(a)academic-conferences.org> An: 'Gustaf.Neumann(a)wu-wien.ac.at' <Gustaf.Neumann(a)wu-wien.ac.at> Hello Gustaf This is the *First*call for papers for the *17th European Conference on e-Learning (ECEL 2018)* being co-hosted by *Hellenic Air Force Academy (HAFA) *and the *Technological Educational Institution (TEI) of Athens, Greece,*1-2 November 2018. This call will *close*on *the 12^th April 2018.* At ECEL 2018 we want to establish what really matters in e-learning. Increasingly e-learning is taking a logical place in the design of learning materials. It is often integrated in the design process of learning. A blended learning design cycle sets goals, works out how these goals are best achieved, and then fills out the appropriate methods of learning. In this way, e-learning can be chosen as a method of learning, and can be selected for its true value. We are expecting examples of great course design as well as examples of good practice, showing the real value of e-learning innovations. By investigating the design and rationale behind good practice individuals will be better able to apply e-Learning applications in their own setting. *We invite contributions of**empirical and experiential research, and case studies and work-in-progress/posters are also welcomed approaches.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP AMCIS '18> Minitrack: Social Theory in Information Systems Research (SIGSI) Datum: Wed, 3 Jan 2018 15:44:34 -0500 Von: Rosenbaum, Howard S. <hrosenba(a)indiana.edu> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org Call for Papers: AMCIS 2018 Minitrack: Social Theory in Information Systems Research (STIR ’18) Track: Social Inclusion (SIGSI) 24th Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS), Aug. 16-18, 2018 New Orleans, LA, USA This minitrack solicits papers using social theory to critically examine ICTs and their roles in enabling and constraining social inclusion. What can be done to improve access to computing for underrepresented groups? In what ways do new technologies impact digital divides? What are the social, cultural, political, and economic implications of the Internet of things? These are examples of the kinds of questions we are interested in exploring in this minitrack. We are particularly interested in completed or emerging research using social theory to address the conference theme, Digital Disruption, critically examining the ways in which emerging technologies are changing the sociotechnical landscape in ways that narrow or widen the digital divide. This will be the 18th consecutive year for STIR, and we hope to continue a tradition of high quality papers, and thought-provoking and lively discussion for IS researchers using social theory in their work. In addition to research aligned with the conference theme we are also interested in high quality empirical and conceptual work that uses social theory to investigate issues such as (but not limited to): • Improving access to computing for underrepresented minorities • Reengineering the pipeline in STEM education for greater inclusiveness and diversity • Critically assessing the ways in which ICTs and information systems can be used to privilege some and exclude others • Understanding the impacts of the Internet of Things on the digital divide • Assessing the unintended consequences of technology implementation and use in organizations and in social life • Reflection on the ways in which ICT assemblages support and challenge political, cultural, and economic hegemonies. Mini-Track chairs Howard Rosenbaum, Indiana University hrosenba(a)indiana.edu Pnia Fichman, Indiana University fichman(a)indiana.edu Submission Instructions: https://amcis2018.aisnet.org/submissions/call-for-papers/ Important Dates: January 15, 2018: Manuscript submissions open February 28, 2018: Deadline for paper submissions April 18, 2018: Authors will be notified of decisions April 25, 2018: Camera-ready submissions due _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org
