They converge around location. Learn how these technologies are transforming the digital space by attending the SIGGIS Workshop in Cancun, Mexico: SIGGIS is pleased to announce our Workshop Keynote: *"Location Analytics at OXXO for Mexico and Latin America: Strategic Challenge and Success", Enrique Ernesto Espinosa Pérez, Expansión Process Manager of OXXO* OXXO is the largest convenience store chain in Mexico with more than 14,000 stores. For an interesting article on how OXXO is using GIS (and more): https://www.esri.com/about/newsroom/publications/wherenext/confidence-in-ne… ===================================================================== *GIS, Location Analytics and Digital Convergence:* *Social Media, Blockchain and Internet of Things* *August 15, 7:30am-11:30am* *Description:* This workshop will serve as a research forum on the varied aspects of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and location analytics. Aligned with the AMCIS 2019 theme, “New Frontiers in Digital Convergence,” the focus of the workshop will be on digital convergence of GIS and location analytics with other existing and emerging technologies, dealing with relevant teaching and research opportunities. Digital convergence is enabled by various technologies, such as Social Media, Blockchain, Internet of Things, Augmented and Virtual Reality, and the Cloud, and is often facilitated and accelerated by locational data and spatial features of such technologies. For example, Location Analytics and GIS move the Internet beyond cyberspace to the location-aware Internet of Things, enabling any devices or things to sense and communicate their geographical location over time. This workshop, including the keynote talk by an industry leader, will highlight emerging opportunities as well as issues, such as barriers to adoption and use, as well as privacy and trust. In addition, a group activity will be facilitated focusing on these research areas to discuss the “who, what, where, when, how, and why” of participating in this burgeoning research domain. *Draft Agenda:* 1.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [wkwi] Call for Chapter: Book on Balancing Agile and Disciplined Engineering and Management Approaches for IT Services and Software Products Date: Fri, 21 Jun 2019 15:39:52 +0200 From: jorge.marx.gomez(a)uni-oldenburg.de Reply-To: jorge.marx.gomez(a)uni-oldenburg.de To: wkwi(a)listserv.dfn.de *Call for Chapters: Balancing Agile and Disciplined Engineering and Management Approaches for IT Services and Software Products* *Editors* Prof. Manuel Mora, Autonomous University of Aguascalientes, Mexico Prof. Jorge Marx Gómez, University of Oldenburg, Germany Prof. Rory O'Connor, Dublin City University, Ireland Prof. Alena Buchalcevova, University of Economics Prague, Czech Republic *Call for Chapters* Proposals Submission Deadline: July 15, 2019 Full Chapters Due: November 15, 2019 Submission Date: May 15, 2020 *Introduction* While several Agile Software-System Development methods (such as Scrum, XP) have permeated in the Software Engineering academic and professional communities in the last 10 years (Hoda et al., 2018), they have been also criticized for trying of using them in all kind of software engineering projects (Boehm, 2002; Meyer, 2018) and by their large learning curve to be mastered (Ganesh & Thangasamy, 2012). Even inventors of the main agile methodologies have indicated subtly that agile methods do not imply easiness of utilization. For instance, Beck (1999; chapter 24) reported: "XP is simple in its details, but it is hard to execute". Similarly, Schwaber and Jeff Sutherland (2017; p. 3) "SCRUM is: lightweight, simple to understand, (but) difficult to master". Additionally, while some studies (Schwaber & Beedle, 2002; Holvitie et al., 2018) have reported that agile software-system development methods help to reduce the negative effects of technical debts, other studies have also reported (Schwanke et al., 2013; Guo et al., 2016) that agile software-system development methods are prone to introduce technical debts by "an emphasis on quick delivery and architecture and design issues" (Behutiye et al. 2017; p. 154). Consequently, balanced discipline-agility methods and approaches have been proposed by researchers (Boehm & Turner, 2004; Rodriguez-Martinez et al., 2012) and some particular adaptations (maturity models, scalation models, enhancement models) to agile methods have been also explored (Boehm & Turner, 2005; Campanelli & Parreiras, 2015; Galvan-Cruz et al., 2017; Dingselyr et al., 2018; 2019; Ozcan-Top & Demirors, 2019). Furthermore, new ISO/IEC standards like the ISO/IEC 29110 standard, pursue similar aims (O'Connor, 2019). Similarly, in the domain of IT service management (TSO, 2012) it has been an extensive utilization of disciplined best practices and process frameworks such as ITIL v3.2011 (TSO, 2012), the ISO/IEC 20000 (ISO/IEC 2010), CMMI-SVC (SEI, 2010), and the proprietary ones ITUP (IBM, 2010) and MOF 4.0. (Microsoft, 2008). However, in the last 5 years, the agile paradigm has also permeated to the IT Service Management field and at present days there are several available agile IT service management best practices and process frameworks such as VeriSM (Mann, 2018), IT4IT (Open Group, 2017), FitSM (FitSM, 2016a; 2016b) and Lean IT (LeanIT, 2015). Furthermore, with the current high interest in business and governmental organizations for making Digital Transformations (World Bank, 2018; Open Group, 2018) providing innovative services, the need of agile effective and efficient IT service design methods arises in this modern worldwide context. Thus, despite the classic IT Service Management best practices and process frameworks have caused beneficial economic and positive performance impacts in the recent past, however, the current highly dynamic world pushes strong pressures on the IT area for delivering quickly and correctly IT services. New claimed agile (and flexible integrative) IT Service Management best practices and process frameworks (i.e. LeanIT, IT4IT, FitSM, and VeriSM) have already emerged in this last 5-year period, but scarce scientific evidence of their effectiveness is available. Both disciplined and agile approaches rely on very separate assumptions, and consequently, their straight integration of balanced methods is not a trivial task (Siau et al., 2015). Furthermore, the high dynamic context of the software-system and IT services customer demands and the emergence of highly related information technology and innovations such as cloud computing (Younas et al., 2018), Internet of things (Jacobson et al., 2017), microservices architecture (Pautasso et al., 2017), and DevOps approach (Dingsoyr, T., & Lassenius, 2016) claim for a reconsideration of the adequate utilization of disciplined vs agile vs balanced IT services and software development methods. Nevertheless, these concerns have been few explored. Thus, in this co-edited book, we call for conceptual frameworks which help to clarify the theoretical foundations of balanced design methods for software and IT service, as well as empirical cases (exploratory and confirmatory ones) where evidence on success or learned lessons on failed cases of these balanced methods be reported. *Objective* This book will aim to collect and disseminate high-quality theoretical and applied research on a very relevant topic in the software engineering and IT service management domains. The expected contributions will pave the path toward better development methods for software and IT services based on the convergence of disciplined and agile approaches.

Juli 2019, 12 Uhr) Date: Thu, 20 Jun 2019 07:52:27 +0000 From: Michael Prilla <michael.prilla(a)tu-clausthal.de> Reply-To: Michael Prilla <michael.prilla(a)tu-clausthal.de> To: fg-cscw(a)lists.gi.de <fg-cscw(a)lists.gi.de>, fb-mci(a)lists.gi.de <fb-mci(a)lists.gi.de>, interaktion(a)tzi.de <interaktion(a)tzi.de>, mci(a)listserv.uni-siegen.de <mci(a)listserv.zimt.uni-siegen.de>, wi(a)lists.kit.edu <wi(a)lists.kit.edu> Liebe Kolleg*innen, liebe Studierende, liebe Interessierte an Themen im BereichCSCW& Social Computing, auch in 2019 veranstaltet die FachgruppeCSCW& Social Computing mit dem Fachbereich Mensch-Computer-Interaktion der Gesellschaft für Informatik dieCSCWChallenge, in der studentische Teams eine Aufgabe bearbeiten sollen. Wir würden wir uns über zahlreiche Einreichungen zu dieser beinahe schon traditionellenChallengefreuen. Informationen zurChallengefinden sich unten sowie unterhttps://fg-cscw.gi.de/cscw-challenge/oderhttps://muc2019.mensch-und-computer.de/challenges/. **CSCWChallenge2019: Kooperation in neuen digitalen Realitäten** Die Aufgabe derCSCWChallenge2019 orientiert sich am Motto „Neue Digitale Realitäten“ der Tagung Mensch und Computer 2019: Einreichungen sollen Konzepte darstellen und überprüfen, in denen Zusammenarbeit unter den Bedingungen neuer digitaler Realitäten gestaltet und beleuchtet wird. **Aufgabe: Kooperationsunterstützung in neuen digitalen Realitäten** Neue digitale Realitäten bieten Chancen für die Entstehung neuer Formen von Zusammenarbeit und die Unterstützung vorhandener Formen, bergen aber auch Herausforderungen und Risiken. Mit steigender Durchdringung des Alltags mit Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien muss Zusammenarbeit unter neu entstehenden Bedingungen und Wegen gestaltet werden. Dynamische und ortsunabhängige Kommunikation mit Messaging-Diensten oder Telepräsenzrobotik sind Beispiele für solche Möglichkeiten, die bereits vorhanden sind. Gleichzeitig bestehen Fragen, wie herkömmliche Features und Möglichkeiten der Kommunikation in neuen digitalen Realitäten abgebildet werden können, und wie Risiken bspw. hinsichtlich Privatheit begegnet werden kann. In der Aufgabe zurCSCWChallenge2019 geht es daher darum, Konzepte zur Unterstützung von Kooperation unter den Bedingungen neuer digitaler Realitäten zu entwickeln. Die Konzepte sollen innovativ sein und Einblicke in zukünftige Unterstützungsmöglichkeiten oder Formen der Zusammenarbeit bieten. Sie dürfen generisch sein, also auf verschiedene Kooperationsszenarien anwendbar sein. Sie sollen aber in Bezug auf mindestens eine konkrete Kooperationsaufgabe dargestellt und hinsichtlich ihres Mehrwerts überprüft werden. **Voraussetzungen und Bewertungskriterien für eingereichte Beiträge** In den Einreichungen zurCSCW-Challenge2019 sollten folgende Elemente vorhanden sein: * Eine Beschreibung der neuen digitalen Realität, die adressiert werden soll. * Das Ziel der Kooperationsunterstützung sollte konkret und mit mindestens einem Anwendungsfall beschrieben werden. * Der Ansatz der Lösung soll einen oder mehrere Ansätze aus der Forschung zuCSCWund Social Media verwenden, umsetzen oder anpassen. * Das Konzept soll entlang eines Anwendungsfalls überprüft bzw. evaluiert werden. Hier sind bspw. Szenario-basierter Ansätze ebenso möglich wie Evaluation im Feld. Bewertet werden Kreativität, Relevanz, Klarheit, Begründung und Methodik. **Anwendungsfelder** Neue digitale Realitäten schließen (vgl.http://muc2019.mensch-und-computer.de/cfp/mensch-computer-interaktion/) Internet of Things und Industrie 4.0, Interaktion mit eingebetteten und ambienten Systemen, Intelligente Häuser und Haushaltstechnik, Ambient Assisted Living, Automotive User Interfaces, virtuelle, gemischte und erweiterte Realitäten, virtuelle Charaktere und Avatare, Brain-Computer Interfaces, mobile und ubiquitäre Interaktion und Mensch-Roboter Interaktion ein. Es dürfen jedoch auch weitere Themenfelder aus dem Bereich digitaler Realitäten bearbeitet werden. **Format** Beiträge können sowohl in deutscher, als auch in englischer Sprache eingereicht werden und sollen 10 Seiten nicht überschreiten. Hierbei sollten die Autorenrichtlinien und die Formatvorlage der Mensch und Computer Konferenz beachtet werden. Folgende Struktur kann als Orientierungshilfe genommen werden: Motivation, Hintergrund, Methodik, Konzept, Implementierung, Schlussfolgerung und Ausblick Zusätzlichen Unterlagen: Um das Konzept zu illustrieren sind Videoprotoypen, Screencasts eines Prototyps bzw. URL auf webfähigen Prototypen erwünscht und können mit eingereicht werden. **Teilnahmebedingungen** DieCSCW-Challengerichtet sich an Studierende, die im Wintersemester 2018/19 oder im Sommersemester 2019 an einer Hochschule immatrikuliert sind. DozentInnen sollen nur allgemein beraten, aber nicht bei der eigentlichen Durchführung derCSCW-Challengeunterstützen.

This special issue aims to provide a forum for scholars, practitioners and policy-makers of sharing economy enabled digital platform to discuss the development strategies and prospects. Sharing economy relates closely to what is currently “hot” in the world of practice (e.g., Airbnb, Lending club, Uber, Didi, Mobike) and provides a convenient way of ‘sharing’ goods, services and other resources with the help of digital technology to achieve effective resource allocation and cost saving. The development of sharing economy in online communities suggests significant changes for the form of transportation, tourism, work location, etc. Previously unknown individuals acquired a unique way to meet new people, thus improve the social contacts and grow online communities. These broad impacts give rise to novel and important research questions and analytical approaches. The aim of the special issue is to address these issues concerned with novel and important research questions, analytical approaches and make contributions on how emerging innovations like sharing economy can be used to bring about socioeconomic development (i.e., the process of social and economic development). In particular, the scope of the special issue includes perspective of quantitative and computational studies involving big data set, case studies, interpretive work, design science and action research related to sharing economy, creative conceptual or theoretical work on the effect of sharing economy, sharing economy enabled digital platforms in developing regions, and sharing economy with ICT for development etc. This special issue emphasizes the sharing economy in the context of developing parts of the world. We welcome papers that contribute to how digital platforms enable a sharing economy that may or may not bring about socioeconomic development. It is open to theoretical and empirical studies deploying a range of methodologies. Topics addressed We would like to invite the authors to submit their research on sharing economy enabled digital platform for development from theoretical, technological, social, psychological, econometric, behavioral, and design science perspectives. Research deploying different theoretical lenses could focus on behavioral study and system design, methods, modeling, and techniques in addressing various aspects of sharing economy enabled digital platform for development. The special issue will focus on a wide range of topics including but not limited to: The impact of sharing economy on socioeconomic development The strategies and success factors of sharing economy enabled digital platform. Case studies of sharing economy enabled digital platforms for development. Emerging issues in sharing economy for development. Trust, privacy, security and ethical issues in sharing economy enabled digital platforms for development. Social, behavioral, economical, psychological and technical factors influencing sharing economy enabled digital platforms for developing world. User behavior and modelling in sharing economy. System design of sharing economy enabled digital platforms. Sharing economy related information systems, technologies, theories, methods, or models that could be transferred and applied from developed regions to developing regions. Artificial intelligence, big data, machine learning and cloud computing technologies for sharing economy. ICTs and sharing economy for development. Design science and action research related to sharing economy. Online collaboration in the sharing economy. Business strategy and practice for sharing economy.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Reposted: JGITM - Call for papers and special issues Date: Tue, 18 Jun 2019 15:40:47 -0400 From: Prashant Palvia <pcpalvia(a)uncg.edu> To: AISWorld <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Sorry, there was a typo in the previous posting. JOURNAL OF GLOBAL INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY MANAGEMENT (JGITM) The premier journal in Global Information Technology Management (in its twenty-third year of publication). http://www.tandfonline.com/UGIT. The journal is published by Taylor & Francis. Listed with the Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI), SCOPUS and CC/S&BS. Editor in Chief: Prashant Palvia, Ph.D., University of North Carolina at Greensboro, pcpalvia(a)uncg.edu *CALL FOR PAPERS:* *We receive a lot of high-quality manuscripts but many are rejected simply because they do not offer any international perspectives. Here are some ways to internationalize your manuscript: conduct the study in multiple countries, compare your results with existing studies in other parts of the world, discuss how your findings are unique and offer new insights not offered in studies in other countries, discuss implications of your single-country study to other regions of the world.* We invite you to submit a high-quality manuscript that includes international issues or has international implications, which are explicitly articulated. Note that JGITM aims and scope, as included on the web site, state: “Besides quality work, at a minimum each submitted article should have the following three components: an IS (Information Systems) topic, an international orientation (e.g., cross cultural studies or strong international implications), and original research along with evidence (e.g., survey data, case studies, secondary data, etc.).” *SPECIAL ISSUES:* If you or your colleagues would like to propose a special issue of JGITM, please contact the Editor in Chief (EIC) with a proposal. You will have much guidance and assistance in preparing the special issue from the EIC. Each issue typically requires three fully referred articles, an editorial, a professional interview, and a book review. The usual lead time for a special issue is 12-15 months. The theme of the special issue must be in global IT and offer international perspectives, e.g., a topic area or focus on a world region. Here is more information about the journal: MISSION: The Journal of Global Information Technology Management (JGITM) is a refereed international journal that is supported by Global IT scholars from all over the world. JGITM publishes articles and reports related to all aspects of the application of information technology for international business. For example, it reports on information resource management, managerial and organizational concerns, and innovative applications related to global IT. Very important to the journal is its emphasis on quality and relevance. Furthermore, the journal will disseminate this knowledge to researchers, practitioners, academicians, and educators all over the world on a timely basis. Finally, the journal is international in all respects: content, article authorship, readership, and the editorial board. SCOPE AND COVERAGE: The journal's scope is multidisciplinary. It will publish research and applied articles from all areas of MIS as well as functional IT applications that have international focus. The journal will also consider a variety of methodological approaches. The journal encourages manuscript submissions from authors all over the world, both from academia and industry. In addition, the journal will also include reviews of MIS books that have bearing on global aspects. Practitioner input will be specifically solicited from time-to-time in the form of invited columns or interviews.

Fwd: [AISWorld] Last Call for Collaborators: Construct Item Ontology
by Gustaf Neumann 17 Jun '19

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Last Call for Collaborators: Construct Item Ontology Date: Mon, 17 Jun 2019 11:13:58 +0000 From: Kai R. Larsen <Kai.Larsen(a)Colorado.EDU> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Dear Colleagues, We now have a dozen+ faculty colleagues on the team. At this point we are opening the project up to PhD students in their third+ year. Should be a wonderful learning experience. We will close team enrollment in three days. If you have colleagues interested in literature reviews, latent measurement models, qualitative research, or who love to organize stuff, please forward. Background and data: after 40 years of quantitative construct research in IS, it time to examine our favorite antecedents. There are several construct taxonomies in existence, but construct taxonomies cannot reveal the true molar nature of what exists. The Human Behavior Project at the University of Colorado has collected more than 17,000 items from 1981-2016 published in three of the top journals in the discipline. While this project does not focus on qualitative or design science research, it will draw on both of these traditions to analyze our quantitative items. Why: we believe these items represent a unique lens into a popular form of research in the discipline, and an opportunity to understand better what is theorized to exist and how these “atomic” pieces fit together. We will build an ontology -- a specification of what entities exists in the world, e.g., people, technologies, groups, etc., coupled with a hierarchical taxonomy of items that purport to measure some attributes of these entities. By organizing these, we will enable better selection of items for construct creation, construct testing, historical analysis, content validity evaluations, and algorithmic analysis. After publication(s), all data from the project will be released to the discipline to enable unanticipated work to take place. The team: we expect to gather a large and diverse set of researchers from across the IS discipline to join in a massively collaborative project. The goal is not only to produce the item ontology but to collectively find or build the technologies that would enable such a task. Think of it as a contribution to Team Science as well as an attempt to examine a critical tool of our discipline. Regardless of the methodological background, outside-the-box thinkers should be able to contribute and take leadership positions for specific products and serve as the first author for such work. When: We will engage in a one month enrollment period (5/21/2019 – 6/20/2019), before scheduling a call among those interested. If appropriate, AMCIS may serve as a first face-to-face meeting of part of the team. How: Fill out this 1-minute survey<http://leeds.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_3UdOWzWMNxR2B7v> to be on the initial email. If you are too excited to stop there, send Kai an email directly at kai.larsen(a)colorado.edu. Kai ☺ -- Kai R.

In London, September 9th - 13th Workshop to be held on September 9th The development and adoption of wearable technologies continues to gain momentum in both industrial and consumer product arenas. With wearable and on-body solutions offering new solutions to advance the future of work (especially in the new rapidly evolving gig economy), it is imperative that the people designing and creating wearable technology interfaces and devices understand the impact of their decisions on device accessibility and more broadly, usability. Individuals with functional limitations or other impairments could be left behind through poorly considered design of the new wearable technologies. This workshop will bring together experts in assistive technology, usability, and wearable computing to discuss ways to help designers and technologists create more accessible, usable, devices. Papers may include topics such as: · Accessible design for wearability for individuals with mobility impairments · Multimodal output for individuals with sensory impairments · Creating accessible and wearable input interfaces · Rapid prototyping interfaces for people with disabilities · Examples of inclusive participatory design for assistive technology · The interplay of policy and design in the development process · Targeting the effects of specific disabilities through individual personas · Designing for impairments associated with aging · Creating wearable interventions to improve sensory and mobility abilities · Dissemination of techniques and processes for inclusive design in an educational setting · Impacting mobile device design via industry education and regulatory mechanisms · Case studies of wearable design for populations with disabilities · Use of audio and sonification in assistive technology devices · Social acceptability of wearable assistive technology · The role of policy and regulation in enhancing accessibility · The design at intersection of technology, economics and policy · Designing inclusive technology policies · Engaging Industry Stakeholders in the inclusive design process Workshop Paper Submission We are soliciting original research contributions and will have a peer-review process for submitted papers. We hope all accepted workshop papers can be included in the ACM digital library and the supplemental proceedings. Conference participants can sign up for the workshop without submitting a paper.
