-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP: AMCIS 2018 Mini-track on "Ontologies & Information Systems" Datum: Sat, 20 Jan 2018 08:17:48 +0200 Von: AJ_L Gerber <gerber.ajl(a)gmail.com> An: AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org Kopie (CC): aurona.gerber(a)up.ac.za Given the adoption trend of computational ontologies since the standardization of OWL by the W3C, we want to provide a platform for research on ontologies and information systems in this SIGODIS mini-track. An ontology in information systems is described as an artefact that captures domain knowledge using a standardised, computerized language. Within modern complex information systems, ontologies are often particularly relevant because of the coherent representation of the semantics and meaning of an application domain or similar knowledge in a computer readable format. The adoption of ontologies is driven by system requirements such as the capturing of contextual knowledge, the ability to draw inferences and reason from a knowledge base, reusability of knowledge, integration of heterogeneous systems, interoperability and internationalization, as well as semantic or reasoning support for disruptive technologies such as big data, artificial intelligence and robotics. This mini-track encourages submission of original research papers on any aspect of ontologies and information systems, both theoretical and application, within diverse domains such as information systems development, conceptual modelling, knowledge management, knowledge engineering, information sciences and semantic technologies including languages such as RDF(s) and OWL, and the associated technologies (such as querying, reasoning and reasoners). Suggested topics include any use of ontologies and information systems that include, but are not limited to, the following: - Ontology-driven Information Systems Development; - Capturing IS semantics with ontologies; - Ontologies in or for Information Systems; - Sytems integration using ontologies; - Ontologies in Information Systems Architecture; - Meaning and Semantics in IS; - Meta-data development and applications; - Ontology querying and reasoning; - Ontology engineering; - Upper, domain and application ontologies; - Specialized domain ontologies (e.g. enterprise ontology) ; - Ontology tools and technologies; - Ontology-driven systems development and systems development methodologies. You are cordially invited to submit your research to the SIGODIS mini-track! Important Dates: - February 28, 2018: Deadline for Paper Submission - April 17, 2018: Decisions made for Completed Research, ERFs submissions - April 25, 2018: Deadline for camera-ready submissions.

The integration of shared knowledge in an IS outsourcing arrangement, represents the blending of organisational knowledge with external knowledge sources. In an attempt to provide tactical mechanisms for creating and managing shared knowledge in organisations embarking on IS outsourcing arrangements, this article focuses on the design and application of a knowledge framework for IS outsourcing, with the purpose of guiding organisations in their knowledge exchange planning through concrete mechanisms, practical steps and validation. Key considerations for IS outsourcing is mapped to critical success factors, each associated with a set of knowledge requirements and knowledge flows to support the successful achievement of a specific critical success factor. An associated assessment tool was designed to identify knowledge exchange mechanisms and potential issues and gaps in current or future IS outsource arrangements.

First, it is recommended that lump-sum payment contracts should be avoided since software development project involves uncertainty. Instead, a variable payment contingent on observed quality can induce the service provider to exert optimal effort on the project. Second, entrepreneurs must not overlook the importance of providing economic incentives. They can protect their intellectual property by withholding critical knowledge and paying information rents in terms of higher than market wages to the service providers. Third, a startling result is that a low wage nation is not necessarily the optimal location to outsource software development projects. Thus, high wage-strong IPR nations might be chosen instead of low wage-weak IPR nations. Finally, the article explains the apparent paradox that software projects are often outsourced to locations that are characterized by weak intellectual property rights regime and high propensity of imitation.

This article looks at how knowledge management systems facilitate practices essential for collaborative, distributed work. A qualitative case study is conducted at a large multinational engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) company that has successfully implemented a knowledge management system. The study uses the framework of ‘knowing in practice' to the context of worksharing. This article contributes to the practice by providing specific suggestions that can be implemented from a social technical perspective to facilitate worksharing. Specifically, suggesting technological factors, and efforts needed by users and managers, in facilitating worksharing. This article contributes to research by applying the lens of ‘knowing in practice' to the context of worksharing.

A total of 59 interviews were conducted with doctors and nurses from two hospitals. The data analysis employed in vivo coding and process coding techniques. The findings suggest a process-oriented strategy for managing knowledge among doctors and nurses in a clinical work environment. The development of this strategy can help the healthcare workers and management to evaluate and further improve their current KM practices. Additionally, this article adds another KM strategy to the literature that is tailored to supporting healthcare organization. Future studies may want to replicate the proposed strategy in different settings such as other clinical or non-clinical departments within the hospital, other public or teaching hospitals or private hospitals.

D. Joshi (Washington State University, USA), Lei Chi (Pfizer Inc, New York, USA) Innovation is considered the engine for firm growth. Especially innovations, through recombining seemingly unrelated knowledge streams, can have groundbreaking impact and lead to sustained competitive advantage. To generate such innovation, firms often need to go beyond their existing technological or geographical boundaries to identify and integrate novel knowledge elements. This article refers to firms' knowledge activities of drawing upon distant knowledge (i.e., knowledge from dissimilar technological domains or distant geographical regions) to create novel technological solutions, as innovation through boundary spanning. Aiming to investigate the roles of information technology (IT) in facilitating innovation through boundary spanning, we collected data from the pharmaceutical industry over a six-year period to test the research model. The data analysis results indicate that IT supports boundary-spanning activities in firm innovation and different IT-enabled knowledge capabilities affect boundary-spanning innovation differently.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] Blockchain Analytics Special Issue CFP Datum: Fri, 19 Jan 2018 06:38:40 +0000 Von: Zheng, Zhiqiang <ericz(a)utdallas.edu> An: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> You all are cordially invited to submit a paper to the Journal of Management Analytics special issue on Blockchain Analytics. This call for paper can be accessed via http://explore.tandfonline.com/cfp/est/jma/si1?utm_source=CPB&utm_medium=cm…. Blockchain is transforming industries by enabling innovative business practices. Its revolutionary power has permeated areas such as remittance, payment, banking, financing, trading, manufacturing, supply chain management, legal service, education, healthcare, government, and so on. Blockchain enables trustless transactions, smart contracts, decentralized economics, and disintermediated society. It has fundamentally altered how business value is being discovered, created, transferred, distributed, and realized in economics. This poses new challenges for both business practitioners and academic researchers.

Accepted papers will be included into the CAiSE workshop proceedings to be published in the Springer LNBIP series. *Motivation:* Modern enterprises are under permanent pressure for change to cope with new competitors and integrate emerging technologies. These changes involve adoption of processes, operations, value proposition and the response to evolving market requirements, especially with regards to the digitalization. Enterprise modeling is an established approach for the conceptual representation, design, implementation and analysis of information systems and has gained much attention in academia as well as in industry. Enterprise modeling is today of primary importance to develop, analyze and deploy information systems that operate in today’s digitalized world. It contributes with the conceptualization, implementation, and use of machine processable languages to facilitate the interaction with complex business and technological scenarios, engage in knowledge management and support organizational engineering. In addition, the development of reference models for selected domains, the design of generic models for enterprise architecture management, and the development of modeling tools are investigated. *Scope:* In this workshop the focus shall be 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 modeling, simulation, transformation, case studies, and prototypes. *Relevant Topics:* For this workshop we are particularly, but not solely, interested in high-quality papers addressing one or more of the following topics: * Conceptualization of enterprise modeling methods * Enterprise modeling platforms & tools * Enterprise Ecosystem modeling * Metamodeling * Modeling method engineering * Multi-View Modeling * Formalization of enterprise modeling methods * Reference modeling * Semantic-based enterprise modeling and enterprise ontologies * Enterprise architecture management * Multi-level enterprise modeling * Modeling in agile development environments * Model Consistency * Best practices and use cases * Open models * Evaluation of enterprise modeling methods * Interdisciplinary modeling issues *Important Dates:* Paper submission: March 4, 2018 Notification of acceptance: April 6, 2018 Workshop: June 11th or 12th, 2018 CAiSE’2018 Conference: June 11th – 15th, 2018 *Workshop Chairs:* Dr. Dominik Bork (corresponding), dominik.bork(a)univie.ac.at Prof. Dr. Hans-Georg Fill Prof. Dr. Dimitris Karagiannis Prof. Dr. Matti Rossi Further information about the workshop, e.g., submission guidelines, the PC and much more can be found online: http://austria.omilab.org/psm/content/emodcaise2018 -- Dr. Dominik Bork University of Vienna Faculty of Computer Science Research Group Knowledge Engineering Room: 4.19 Währinger Straße 29, 1090 Vienna Phone: +43-1-4277-789 22 eFax: +43-1-4277-878922 -- Mailing-Liste: wi(a)lists.kit.edu Administrator: wi-request(a)lists.kit.edu Konfiguration: https://www.lists.kit.edu/wws/info/wi

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: [AISWorld] CFP: 4th International Workshop on Socio-Technical Perspective in IS development (STPIS'18) Datum: Thu, 18 Jan 2018 21:08:44 +0100 Von: ilia <ilia(a)ibissoft.se> An: AISWORLD Information Systems World Network <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Dear colleagues, Please consider visiting Tallinn, Estonia in June 2018 and participating in 4th International Workshop on Socio-Technical Perspective in IS development (STPIS'18) planned for 12th of June 2018 This is the first call with a submission deadline of *4 March 2018* The main */purpose /*of the workshop is to arrange */discussions /*on using a socio-technical perspective in IS development, the long term goal being to make this workshop a/*meeting place for the community of IS researchers and practitioners*/ interested in the socio-technical approach. Following the purpose, only part of the workshop is devoted to presentations, the rest is designated for collaborative work. This year we follow the practice established during STPI'17 and will be working on a real case from the local industry. Attached to CAiSE'18 conference https://caise2018.ut.ee/ Full description see at http://stpis2018.blogs.dsv.su.se/ Short description is presented below --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Despite that a socio-technical perspective has been around for over a half century, it is often forgotten in the Information Systems (IS) discourse today. Consequently, many “new approaches” appear to reflect on IS systems problems, such as modern IT systems poorly adjusted to the external or/and internal environment (e.g. market, organizational culture) of organizations in which they are (to be) deployed. We strongly believe that it is high time the social-technical perspective took its proper place in IS research, practice and teaching. The main purpose of the workshop is to arrange discussions on using a socio-technical perspective in IS development, the long term goal being to make this workshop a meeting place for the community of IS researchers and practitioners interested in the socio-technical approach. Topics of interest include but are not limited to: * Case studies using socio-technical approach * Information system design using socio-technical approach * Socio-technical comparative studies of technology/IS adoption * Socio-technical analysis, design, development and integration of – health care systems – crisis management systems – information security management systems – learning systems – privacy enhanced technology * Societal Security from a socio-technical perspective * Ethnographic and Anthropological aspects of IS design and adoption * IT business alignment from a socio-technical perspective * Using Viable System Model (VSM) for analysis and design of socio-technical systems We invite submissions of short and long papers and multi-media materials in the following categories: * Position papers * Idea papers * Experience reports * Research papers * Multi-media. Besides papers, we accept submissions in form of multi-media materials, for example, recorded video or animated presentation, describing industrial experience of using socio-technical perspective for IS analysis or development. In case of acceptance, an extended abstract is published in the workshop proceedings, while the multi-media material itself or a link to it is placed on the workshop site. * Posters Deadlines for the first call ------------------------------ Submission of papers - 4 March 2018 Proceedings ----------------- As with the previous editions of STPIS.

-------- Weitergeleitete Nachricht -------- Betreff: Call For Papers - KMIS 2018 (Seville / Spain) Datum: Thu, 18 Jan 2018 20:01:30 +0100 Von: Scitevents <cfps(a)scitevents.net> An: neumann(a)wu-wien.ac.at CALL FOR PAPERS 10th International Conference on Knowledge Management and Information Sharing Submission Deadline: *May 2, 2018 * *http://www.kmis.ic3k.org/* September 18 - 20, 2018 Seville - Spain Knowledge Management (KM) is a discipline concerned with the analysis and technical support of practices used in an organization to identify, create, represent, distribute and enable the adoption and leveraging of good practices embedded in collaborative settings and, in particular, in organizational processes. Effective knowledge management is an increasingly important source of competitive advantage, and a key to the success of contemporary organizations, bolstering the collective expertise of its employees and partners. Information Sharing (IS) is a term used for a long time in the information technology (IT) lexicon, related to data exchange, communication protocols and technological infrastructures. Although standardization is indeed an essential element for sharing information, IS effectiveness requires going beyond the syntactic nature of IT and delve into the human functions involved in the semantic, pragmatic and social levels of organizational semiotics. The two areas are intertwined as information sharing is the foundation for knowledge management. Proceedings will be submitted for indexation by: DBLP, Thomson-Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index, INSPEC, EI, SCOPUS and Semantic Scholar. All papers presented at the conference venue will also be available at the SCITEPRESS Digital Library <http://www.scitepress.org/>. Kind regards, Carla Mota KMIS Secretariat *Address: * Av. D.
