Visit https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=desrist2019 to submit your papers. Deadline for Full Papers: Feb 1, 2019 Later deadlines for Prototypes, Panels, Doctoral Consortium and Late-Breaking Work. The increasing need for smart and connected solutions that address business and society challenges and opportunities through design requires advances in both theory and practice of design science research (DSR). The goal of the design science research paradigm is to extend the boundaries of human and organizational capabilities by designing new and innovative artifacts (constructs, models, methods, processes, and systems). Scholars having different backgrounds such as information systems, computer science, operations research, cognitive science and informatics are actively engaged in generating novel solutions to interesting design problems. DESRIST serves as a major forum for the presentation of innovative ideas, approaches, developments and research projects in the area of DSR theory and applications. It aims to facilitate the exchange of ideas between researchers and industry professionals. The 14th DESRIST conference will be held in Worcester, Massachusetts in the Greater Boston area and is expected to attract researchers and practitioners from around the world. Papers that illustrate research results, innovative traditional and non-traditional artifacts and industry experiences that describe significant advances in design science research are invited. We encourage submissions related but not limited to the following areas: Domain Specific Applications of DSR DSR in Healthcare DSR in Cyber Security DSR in Service Science DSR in HCI DSR in Data Science DSR in Business Analytics and Process Management DSR for ICT in Developing Countries DSR in Sustainable and Green Technology Theoretical and Methodological Contributions to DSR Emerging Ideas in DSR The DESRIST conference proceeding is published as a Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.

The call for papers can be found online at the IFIP 8.11/11.13 WG web presence at https://ifip.byu.edu. It also appears, below, for your convenience. Submissions are due June 1, and information security research appearing at the DRW typically appears after the meeting in prestigious journals of our field. This year’s meeting will feature a dedicated special issue of the highly regarded Computers & Security journal, to which top papers from the meeting will be fast-tracked. Our official CFP: IFIP WG8.11/WG11.13 Friday October 4 – Saturday October 5, 2019. Margaretville Hotel and Resort, Shreveport/Bossier Louisiana CALL FOR PAPERS The 2019 Dewald Roode Workshop on Information Systems Security Research is being held in conjunction with the Louisiana Tech Center for Information Assurance and the Cyber-Innovation Center of Bossier City, Louisiana. This is a venue closely affiliated with key defense industry security contractors and their cybersecurity consultancies. The active discussions in the workshop are intended to provide participants specific and actionable feedback on their research. We anticipate that this process will facilitate the successful development of workshop papers for further consideration at important journals (See https://ifip.byu.edu/ for past DRW papers which have been published in journals). Selection for the workshop is competitive, and only authors of the accepted papers and the active working group members will be invited to participate. A special issue of the journal Computers & Security, edited by Tom Stafford and Nicole Beebe, has been approved for competitive submissions fast-tracked from the conference. Anchoring the workshop to information systems means that the research will attend to and extend the social, organizational, and managerial literature in the focal area. Note that this is not an appropriate venue for papers with a purely technical, design-science, or econometric approach. While we assume an effective foundation in information security technology, we regard information systems risk broadly, for example, computer crime, employee misconduct, cyber warfare, cyber terrorism, human error and/or accident, natural events, etc. We also address information systems security broadly, for example, policies and policy compliance, diverse security behaviors, privacy, awareness, strategy, audit, planning and control. These and related research topics will be the focus of this workshop. Topics of Interest The 2019 Dewald Roode Workshop on Information Systems Security Research Topics may include (but are not limited to): Theoretical and empirical analyses of information security behavior Adoption, use, and continuance of information security technologies and policies Compliance with information security and privacy policies, procedures, and regulations Investigations of computer crime and security violations Motivators and inhibitors of employee computer crime Forensic analysis of security breaches and computer crimes Individual, organizational, and group information privacy concerns and behaviors Legal, societal, and ethical issues in information security Neurosecurity (NeuroIS) investigations of information security behavior CONFERENCE LOGISTICS General Chair Tom Stafford, J.E.

A complex service is built upon several services, and its systems, including its digital system, are composed upon their systems. Therefore, the information is an important source of innovation, and the digital means enable to introduce new functionalities which were difficult or impossible to offer before. Technology, as an operant resource, leverage information sharing across service ecosystems at society level, enabling data-driven value co-creation as a service strategy. This session is inviting original submissions addressing the entire development cycle of complex services and their service systems, enacting new types of knowledge exchange that would advance society in its complexity. Society is facing today critical situations for which its systems must be purposely reshaped. Complexity, a fundamental characteristic of the world we live in, must be understood against society needs and new tools for analyzing and describing it are required today. Authors are encouraged as well to present developed practices, mechanisms, methods, toward increasing the engagement in teaching, learning, research and institutional activities to support digital skills formation in industry fostering new services and jobs creation. In this perspective, it concerns important properties of Service Science, which induce situations where knowledge, skills, activities and jobs can emerge to surmount challenges in identifying the growing share of increasingly complex services that characterize the digital economy. IMPORTANT DEADLINES - April 26, 2019: Submission of papers - June 28, 2019: Notification of acceptance for papers - July 26, 2019: Final camera ready manuscript and registration payment of at least one of the authors - October 9-11, 2019: Conference PAPER SUBMISSION http://icstcc2019.cs.upt.ro/authors/initial-papers-submissions/ Papers submitted to the special session on "Complex service modelling, composition, and engineering" will be reviewed in the same manner as the regular papers.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [computational.science] [SmartSys 2019]: Call for papers Date: Wed, 23 Jan 2019 10:28:11 +0100 From: Antonio Arena <antonio.arena(a)ing.unipi.it> To: computational.science(a)lists.iccsa.org [We apologize if you receive multiple copies of this CFP.] CALL FOR PAPERS - IEEE SmartSys 2019 Fourth IEEE Workshop on Smart Service Systems (SmartSys) Co-located with the IEEE International Conference on Smart Computing (SMARTCOMP 2019) Washington D.C., June 12th/15th, 2019 http://mpsc.umbc.edu/smartsys/2019/ <http://mpsc.umbc.edu/smartsys/2019/> Technology succeeds when it provides benefits to the society either directly or indirectly. Understanding the societal and economic impact and human-centered aspects of a smart system or technology in advance and designing the system a-priori with potential value-added services help spur the discoveries of new tools, methodologies and innovative services. Smart service systems span across a variety of socio-technical facets comprising of devices, people, organizations, environments, and technologies to sense, actuate, control and assess the physical, cyber and societal artifacts of the human service systems. Besides the systems being self-adaptive and fault-tolerant, need to be designed in such a way that it can continuously increase the quality and productivity, the compliance and sustainability of the smart services it offers. While human-centered perspective and cognitive learning help create multi-facet value added services and catalyze the sustained economic growth of smart service systems, understanding the multi-modal sensing, control, heterogeneity and interdependency between different physical, virtual and logical components of such a complex system will enable the realization of new transformative smarter service systems. If successful, this can help improve the quality-of-service of the customers, quality-of-life of the citizens and quality-of returns of the stakeholders and investors. Nurturing the development of smart service systems seeks for inter- and trans-disciplinary crosscutting research threads from system and operational engineering, computer science and information systems, social and behavioral science, computational modeling and industrial engineering etc. The goal of this workshop is to bring together practitioners and researchers from both academia and industry in order to have a forum for discussion and technical presentations on the fundamental knowledge and principles of smart service systems that enable the value co-creation in sensing, actuating, data analytics, learning, cognition, and control of human centric cyber-physical-social systems and future of work..

Fwd: [AISWorld] AMCIS 2019 CFP - Mini-track: IT Governance and Business-IT Alignment
by Gustaf Neumann 23 Jan '19

23 Jan '19

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] AMCIS 2019 CFP - Mini-track: IT Governance and Business-IT Alignment Date: Wed, 23 Jan 2019 10:02:17 +0100 From: Lazar Rusu <lrusu(a)dsv.su.se> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org AMCIS 2019 Cancún, México, August 15-17, 2019 https://amcis2019.aisconferences.org/ Mini-track: IT Governance and Business-IT Alignment Track: Strategic and Competitive Uses of Information Technology We kindly invite you to submit your manuscripts to the Mini-track: IT Governance and Business-IT Alignment at AMCIS 2019. Mini-track Description: In many organizations, information technology (IT) is crucial for the running and growth of the businesses that calls for a specific focus on IT governance or enterprise governance of IT. Enterprise governance of IT is defined to be “an integral part of corporate governance, exercised by the Board, overseeing the definition and implementation of processes, structures and relational mechanism in the organization that enable both business and IT people to execute their responsibilities in support of business/IT alignment and the creation of business value from IT-enabled business investments” (De Haes and Van Grembergen, 2015, p.2). But to generate value from IT a company needs to have implemented an effective IT governance in place which is “an actively designed set of IT governance mechanisms” that supports “organization’s mission, strategy, values, norms and culture” (Weill and Ross, 2004, p.2-3). In their research Schlosser et al. (2015, p.129) have identified some specific effective IT governance mechanisms like “top management support for business-IT collaboration and IT representation on the executive board” as key to social business-IT alignment at the operational level. According to De Haes and Van Grembergen (2015) the ultimate outcome of IT governance is business-IT alignment that is defined as “the fit and integration among business strategy, IT strategy, business structures and IT structures” (De Haes and Van Grembergen, 2015, p.4). Concerning the relation between IT governance and business-IT alignment Schlosser et al. (2015, p.126) have found that IT governance mechanisms like “top management support of business-IT collaboration, IT representation on the executive board, and joint IS training” to have the “strongest relationships with business performance” that is explained by a significant degree of two dimensions of social business-IT alignment. The importance of research in business-IT alignment has been mentioned by many researchers. Chan and Reich (2007) have found that organizations that succeed to align their business and IT strategies will outperform those who have not done it. While, Luftman et al. (2017) have found that business-IT alignment has a significant impact on firm performance. In opinion of Leonard and Seddon (2012) there are two motivators of why business-IT alignment continues to be important for organizations. The first one is concerning the strategic benefits brought by business-IT alignment and the second one is related to the fact that IS managers consider business-IT alignment to be a key issue for their organizations (Leonard and Seddon, 2012). In support why business-IT alignment is still a top management concern for executives in organizations around the world are also the findings of the annual study of IT key issues and trends done by Society for Information Management in 2017 (Kappelman et al., 2018). As we noticed the research in IT governance and business-IT alignment has been explored for different motivates that are still important for understanding the contribution of these studies to the research in this area but also how can these studies could be used by practitioners. In this mini-track we are looking to receive papers that reports innovative research studies and new insights into the theories, models and practices in research of IT governance and business-IT alignment. We are welcoming the submission of full research papers and Emergent Research Forum (a research in progress option) papers using a variety of research methodologies. More information about types of submissions you will find at the following link: https://amcis2019.aisconferences.org/submissions/types-of-submissions/papers. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following: • IT governance structures, processes and relational mechanisms • IT governance roles of the board and executive management • Business-IT relationships and business-IT alignment • Organizational culture influence on IT governance and business-IT alignment • Organizational structure influence on IT governance and business-IT alignment • IT governance and business performance • IT leadership role in business-IT alignment • IT governance and business-IT alignment for digital transformation • IT governance implementation and its impact on business-IT alignment • Theoretical models for studying IT governance and business-IT alignment • Practices and cases on IT governance and business-IT alignment The best papers in this mini-track will be invited for fast track publication in International Journal of IT/Business Alignment and Governance (IJITBAG).

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Call for Papers for minitrack on Social media and disinformation AMCIS 2019 Date: Tue, 22 Jan 2019 18:51:17 +0000 From: Shah, Vishal <shah3v(a)cmich.edu> To: aisworld-request(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld-request(a)lists.aisnet.org>, aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Dear Colleagues, We kindly invite you to submit your manuscripts to Social media and disinformation minitrack, under the Information Security and Privacy track of the 2019 AMCIS conference, which will take place on 15-17 August, 2019 in Cancun, Mexico Submission deadline is March 1, 2019. Following is a short description of the minitrack. Minitrack Chair: Rishikesh Jena, University of Alabama, rjena(a)cba.ua.edu This minitrack seeks papers that elaborate an address the underlying causes of disinformation through technological means. Researchers have identified how false information is spread more quickly, deeper, and further due to human nature accepting rumors more quickly over truthful statements (Vosoughi, Roy & Aral 2018). The use of social technologies, which allow for quick dissemination of information further encourages this dynamic by offering strong user engagement but little to no context to users. A balancing act is required in the use of these technologies between mechanisms for disseminating information while allowing us to check the validity of this information. Technological developments (algorithms, big data, artificial intelligence, Internet of Things and smart technologies) hold the promise of combating misinformation. At the same time, artificial intelligence, big data, and algorithms offer little to no access to information that they make inferences about our online actions that are often used to present advertisements or information to us. While the impact of disinformation is mostly believed to influence socio-political opinion, however, it is also likely to affect the world of business. For example, troll farms are buying advertising to disseminate information on a scale that can potentially reach millions of users. Additionally, this information can spread within an organization via “Enterprise Social Media” (ESM) (Leonardi, Huysman, & Steinfield, 2013). ESM can spread disinformation within the organization, hence making internal operations of an organization susceptible to disinformation/misinformation. This can become especially problematic if the organization is in the business of information dissemination such as Facebook and Twitter. What mechanisms frameworks are needed to ensure institutions have immunity against “fake news”. Thus, combating disinformation is a dual challenge, as it can impact the supply and demand side of information dissemination business. We encourage submissions dealing with social media and interaction of “fake news” at an individual level as well as enterprise levels. In this track, we are therefore looking for research on the diverse causes of misinformation/disinformation in social technologies and a variety of ways that these technologies can help us combat it. We welcome articles that detail how technological enterprises such as Facebook or Twitter as a unit) develop strategies to combat disinformation as well as theoretical frameworks we can draw on to develop such strategies. This mini-track welcomes all types of empirical and theoretical contributions. Possible topics include but are not limited to: - Enterprise responses to fight disinformation - Case Studies of enterprises that have fallen prey to disinformation campaigns - Technical solutions and their scalability to protect the integrity of information - User education and usage policies in the space of 'fake news" - The ability of ESM to discriminate between real and doctored information given that technical tools (such as algorithms, big data, artificial intelligence etc.) are also used by disinformation campaigns References: Leonardi, P., Huysman, M., & Steinfield, C.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Call for Papers for minitrack on Rhetoric, Technology, and (Dis)information AMCIS 2019 Date: Tue, 22 Jan 2019 18:51:58 +0000 From: Shah, Vishal <shah3v(a)cmich.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org>, aisworld-request(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld-request(a)lists.aisnet.org> Dear Colleagues, We kindly invite you to submit your manuscripts to Rhetoric, Technology, and (Dis)information minitrack, under the Information Security and Privacy track of the 2019 AMCIS conference, which will take place on 15-17 August, 2019 in Cancun, Mexico Submission deadline is March 1, 2019. Following is a short description of the minitrack. Minitrack Chair: James Melton, Central Michigan University, melto1jh(a)cmich.edu This minitrack seeks to explore the relationship between rhetoric, social media platforms, and disinformation. One of the ways to deal with disinformation and to avoid exacerbating biases is to have a general population trained in rhetoric. Because the discipline of rhetoric studies the effects of persuasion on audiences, it can help make those audiences more aware of mechanisms of spreading disinformation. For example, recent papers studied how to inoculate people against misinformation by asking them to play roles such as “clickbait monger” seeking to get clicks themselves or to act as “conspiracy theorist." It was found that when made aware of the ease that misinformation could be spread, people were more likely to be critical of it in the future (Roozenbeek et al. 2018; van der Linden et al. 2017). Such interventions demonstrate that rhetorical awareness of mechanisms that enable the spread of disinformation can help combat bias through awareness. We welcome papers at the intersection of rhetoric, psychology, and information systems that attempt to solve the problem of disinformation from an interdisciplinary standpoint. This mini-track welcomes all types of empirical and theoretical contributions. Possible topics include but are not limited to: - Political persuasion using technology - Safeguards against "fake news" - Technical solution(s) to identify and combat disinformation - Impact of dis/misinformation on an individual, group, and societal levels - Changes in the very meaning of "facts" - Interaction of disinformation and supposed "self-expertise" (e.g., Dunning-Kruger Effect) - Technical traps set up by bots to entice social media users, and its behavioral impacts - Frameworks to combat disinformation/misinformation Link to the track/minitrak: https://amcis2019.aisconferences.org/submissions/track-descriptions/#toggle… References: Roozenbeek, J., & van der Linden, S.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Call for Papers for minitrack on User experience, human-computer interaction, and design of (dis)information AMCIS 2019 Date: Tue, 22 Jan 2019 18:53:25 +0000 From: Shah, Vishal <shah3v(a)cmich.edu> To: aisworld-request(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld-request(a)lists.aisnet.org>, aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Dear Colleagues, We kindly invite you to submit your manuscripts to User experience, human-computer interaction, and design of (dis)information minitrack, under the Information Security and Privacy track of the 2019 AMCIS conference, which will take place on 15-17 August, 2019 in Cancun, Mexico Submission deadline is March 1, 2019. Following is a short description of the minitrack. Minitrack Chair: Gustav Verhulsdonck, Central Michigan University, verhu1g(a)cmich.edu This mini track seeks papers at the intersection of User Experience (UX) design, Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and disinformation. Design for user experiences is one way to tackle the problem of disinformation. Today’s technological devices may promote the engagement of a user by designers utilizing deep knowledge of the user’s behavior and psychology (Choi & Kim 2004; Chou & Ting 2003). Persuasive design and design for behavior motivate users to stay longer on a platform by “gaming” their behavior or decisions through the design of an interface (Fogg 2002; Lockton et al. 2010). It can range from simplifying a design with a clear call-to-action so that the user makes a purchase, coax them into staying on the platform, or from deceptive practices where threatening language is used to prevent users from opting in/out of policies (aka “confirmshaming”). Often, design practices can serve to clarify things for the user, but they may also utilize disinformation and serve the underlying economic motive of the platform. What mechanisms can help prevent disinformation from a design point of view? Which design practices should UX designers consider to counter disinformation and develop more transparent, ethical design for users? We encourage all types of papers dealing with the design of disinformation exploring issues of agency, platforms, and design in light of the challenges of user experience. This mini-track welcomes all types of empirical and theoretical contributions. Possible topics include but are not limited to: - Business models of internet companies and their relation to disinformation/misinformation - Political and societal impacts of disinformation/misinformation - Efficacy of measures to counter disinformation/misinformation - Social bots and their impacts on changes in perception "usser experience" - HCI perspectives on disinformation/misinformation Link to the track/minitrak: https://amcis2019.aisconferences.org/submissions/track-descriptions/#toggle… References: Choi, D., & Kim, J.
