Aufgrund ihrer Diversität und Heterogenität gibt es keinen einheitlichen Weg der digitalen Transformation im Hochschulsektor. Curricula, Studienstrukturen, Präsenzlehre und digitale Lehr- und Lernangebote müssen auf die jeweiligen Hochschulen, Zielgruppen und Kooperationspartner zugeschnitten werden. Dabei müssen auch neue Zielgruppen erreicht werden, z.B. Berufstätige und Teilzeitstudierende, und die Individualisierung sowie die nationale und internationale Studierendenmobilität gefördert werden. Kompetenzen für die Informationsextraktion aus Lern- und Studienprozessen, (Big) Data Analytics und Visualisierung, Künstliche Intelligenz und Augmented Reality müssen in Hochschulen aufgebaut werden. Von der digitalen Transformation sind alle Bereiche von Hochschulen betroffen, z.B. Präsidien, Fakultäten und gleichgestellte Einrichtungen, Universitätsverwaltungen, Forschungseinrichtungen sowie zentrale und dezentrale (IT-)Dienstleister, die sich mit schnell verändernden Anforderungs- und Rollenprofilen anpassen müssen. Ferner sind rechtliche Rahmenbedingungen zu betrachten, z.B. Datenschutzanforderungen, um die Potenziale von digitalen Lehr- und Lernangeboten und von digitalen Medien in der Lehre zu erschließen. Dieser Track diskutiert theoretische, konzeptionelle, gestaltungsorientierte, empirische und verhaltensorientierte Beiträge. Einreichungen und Vorträge sind deutsch oder englisch möglich. *Mögliche Themen im Überblick* Campus Management Systeme und digitale Studierendenverwaltung Lernmanagement Systeme E(lectronic)- und M(obile)-Learning inkl.

Fwd: [AISWorld] At the Crossroads between Digital Innovation and Digital Transformation :: PDW at ICIS 2019 - Call for Submissions
by Gustaf Neumann 24 Aug '19

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] At the Crossroads between Digital Innovation and Digital Transformation :: PDW at ICIS 2019 - Call for Submissions Date: Thu, 22 Aug 2019 12:37:53 +0000 From: Gregory, Robert (rg7cv) <rg7cv(a)comm.virginia.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> At the Crossroads between Digital Innovation and Digital Transformation Call for submission – Paper Development Workshop at ICIS 2019 16 December, 14:30 -18:00 in Munich, Germany Overview: This PDW (professional development workshop) session engages the workshop attendees to debate and get feedback on their own research on topics at the crossroads between digital innovation and transformation. In particular, the PDW is aimed at examining the transformation processes and mechanisms involved in digital innovation and shedding more light on what is unique about the novel phenomenon of digital transformation – compared to IT function-driven and enterprise systems-enabled organizational transformations of the past – across multiple levels of analysis, including individual, organization, and society. Studying the interrelation between digital innovation and digital transformation is pertinent, since successive waves of digital innovation within an industry or at the level of an individual firm and its ecosystem may lead up to fundamental transformation of structures, roles and management (Tumbas et al. 2018), culture, competencies and skills, and so forth, depending on the influence of barriers such as inertia and resistance to change (Vial 2019). New phenomena, such as the democratization of innovation processes (Huang et al. 2017) and consumerization (Gregory et al. 2018), put large established firms under significant pressure to transform their legacy systems and organizational structures, and reinvent their models and approaches to value creation and capture (Bharadwaj et al. 2013; Sebastian et al. 2017). Thus, expanding the research agenda on digital innovation to focus as well on digital transformation has recently been identified as a key concern for the information systems field (Hinings et al. 2018; Vial 2019). To address this topic, this PDW is organized to attract scholars with interest in exploring and debating the interrelated domains of digital innovation and transformation. Presenter: Ola Henfridsson, University of Miami Presenter: Nicholas Berente, University of Notre Dame Presenter: Andrew Burton-Jones, University of Queensland Facilitator: Michael Barrett, Stockholm School of Economics Facilitator: Sabine Brunswicker, Queensland University of Technology Facilitator: Yolande E. Chan, Queen’s Unviersity Facilitator: Jonny Holmström, Umeå University Facilitator: Evgeny Káganer, IESE Business School Facilitator: Gerald Kane (Jerry), Boston College Facilitator: Sia Siew Kien, Nanyang Technological University Facilitator: Magnus Mähring, Stockholm School of Economics Facilitator: Gabriele Piccoli, Louisiana State University Facilitator: Molly Wasko, University of Alabama at Birmingham Facilitator: Ryan Wright, University of Virginia Facilitator: Youngjin Yoo, Case Western Reserve University Format: The Paper Development Workshop will consist of two parts. In the first part of the workshop, there will be three short keynote presentations. In the first presentation, Ola Henfridsson will provide an introduction and overview over research on digital innovation. In the second presentation, Nicholas Berente will provide an introduction and overview over research on digital transformation. Finally, the third presentation by Andrew Burton-Jones will focus on the methodological and theoretical challenges in conducting research on digital innovation and/or digital transformation. The second part of the workshop will feature round-table discussions. Up to four participants who are at a similar stage in their research projects and have common research interests will gather in small groups. Each group will be facilitated by a scholar with experience in conducting and publishing studies in digital innovation and transformation as well as significant experience with reviewing, editing, and mentoring. Submission Details: To participate in the Paper Development Workshop interested participants are requested to submit a short paper draft describing their research projects which should include (1) title, (2) an abstract of their research idea of (max. 150 words), (3) up to five keywords, (4) an extended introduction including a short theoretical part, (5) the status of their data collection and current project phase, (6) potential contributions, (7) two concrete questions for the round table discussions. All applications have to be submitted in one file (.doc; .docx; or .pdf format) to SIGDITE(a)gmail.com<mailto:SIGDITE@gmail.com> before the application deadline and should not exceed 5 pages in total (including references, tables, etc.). Application deadline for the workshop is October 31st 2019. Submitted short paper drafts will be peer reviewed by the PDW organizers and decisions about acceptance will be communicated until November 15th. Accepted participants will be notified about their group allocation and will receive the short papers of their group members for review and preparation. Each accepted participant will be asked to prepare a short review of the other papers accepted in the same group and submit these reviews to the organizers by December 6th. In addition, participants will have access to all other short papers allocated to different groups. The Workshop Organizers are looking forward to your submission and to welcome you in Munich, Robert W.

Fwd: [AISWorld] [ISWORLD] CFP: The 2019 Pre-ICIS SIGBPS Workshop
by Gustaf Neumann 24 Aug '19

24 Aug '19

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] [ISWORLD] CFP: The 2019 Pre-ICIS SIGBPS Workshop Date: Fri, 23 Aug 2019 22:06:04 -0400 From: Jennifer Xu <jiexu2(a)gmail.com> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> *The 2019 Pre-ICIS SIGBPS Workshop on Blockchain Technologies and Smart Contracts* Workshop Theme: Security and Trust in the Blockchain Era December 15, 2019 Munich, Germany http://2019.sigbps.org/ *Submission Deadline: *September 30, 2019* Dear Colleagues: We cordially invite you to submit your latest research results to SIGBPS2019. --------------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS --------------------------- SIGBPS workshops aim to extend the boundaries of research in business process management and services science by incorporating new elements that have not been sufficiently emphasized in the past. The recent rapid advances in information systems have created both challenges and opportunities to develop new business services via innovative business processes. This workshop promotes theoretical research in business process management and service science. On one hand, driven by the need to solve practical problems, the business process modeling and automation research has been largely prescriptive. There has been a lack of strong theories in this area, and we believe that it is essential to develop new theories about business process and service automation. On the other hand, more recently blockchain is poised to become the most exciting invention after the Internet; while the latter connects the world to enable new business models based on online business processes, the former will help resolve the trust issue more efficiently via distributed and decentralized computing. While the recent advancements in fintech made blockchain a practical technology, smart contracts are now getting more attention. Smart contracts are essentially a transaction protocol that executes the terms of a computerized contract. The potential business impacts of blockchain and smart contracts are challenging existing business models, leading to fascinating research opportunities in business process and service applications. The purpose of the SIGBPS workshop this year is to provide an interdisciplinary forum to discuss new research directions in the areas of building trustworthy business processes and services with blockchains and smart contract technologies. We have seen testimonial studies on how to examine, design, implement, and deploy solutions based on blockchains and smart contracts to resolve research and practical issues in BPS applications. Such applications may benefit many research frontier domains, for example, information systems in Finance, Supply chain, Education and Healthcare. This year’s workshop will focus on the research and development of blockchain technologies and applications with a workshop theme called “Security and Trust in the Blockchain Era.” This theme is to signify the unique capability of blockchain technologies and applications in the enablement of secure and efficient information flows across organizational boundaries, resulting in lower process costs, better business trust, and more novel business collaborations. Given the nature and purposes of this workshop, we invite research papers of no more than five pages that are well articulated and formatted in single line spacing, Times New Roman, 11-point font, and 1 inch margin all around. We particularly seek position papers but also welcome conceptual papers with either theoretical or application flavors, as well as research-in-progress papers. Case, empirical, and behavioral studies relevant to the following topics are welcome. Suggested research topics include, but are not limited to, the following: - Security issues in blockchain-enabled systems and platforms - Computational trust in blockchain-enabled systems and applications - Open collaboration processes and services in blockchain-enabled systems - Design science research in BPS applications of blockchain-driven smart contracts - Technical and application solutions for smart contracts and BPS applications - Empirical studies on blockchain, smart contracts and BPS applications - Trust, privacy, and behavioral issues in smart contracts under blockchains - Regulation, governance, and standardization of smart contracts in BPS applications - BPS applications of contract theory in smart contract management - Blockchain-driven protocols for BPS smart contracts - BPS applications with blockchain and smart contracts in healthcare, supply chain, finance, education - BPS case studies of blockchain and smart contract adoption - Economics and game theory of smart contracts The workshop will be organized with special tracks of interests. Researchers with expertise in the above topics are welcome to direct the paper solicitation and reviewing within one track, which might be, but not limited to, one of the following: - Security and Trust in Blockchain-enabled Systems - Integration of smart contracts in workflow systems - Process-centric consensus modeling for DAO - Service science and engineering in blockchain ecosystems - Blockchain enabled supply chain processes and finance - Innovative Blockchain applications in industry Please email hsubram(a)fiu.edu, jxu(a)bentley.edu, and/or rong.liu(a)stevens.edu if you would like to get more information, or if you are considering to direct the paper solicitation in one of the areas above. --------------------------- IMPORTANT DATES --------------------------- Submission deadline: *September 30, 2019 * Notification of paper acceptance: October 21, 2019 --------------------------- SUBMISSION --------------------------- Please submit your paper online at https://app.conferency.com/sigbps2019. --------------------------- COMMITTEES --------------------------- *Honorary Chairs:* - Edward Stohr, Stevens Institute of Technology, USA - Akhil Kumar, Pennsylvania State University, USA *Conference Chairs:* - J.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [WI] WI2020 Call for Papers Community Track IT-Beratung im Wandel: Daten, Digitalisierung und Geschäftsmodelle Date: Thu, 22 Aug 2019 16:25:29 +0000 From: Nissen Volker Prof. Dr. TU Ilmenau <volker.nissen(a)tu-ilmenau.de> Reply-To: Nissen Volker Prof. Dr. TU Ilmenau <volker.nissen(a)tu-ilmenau.de> To: wi(a)lists.kit.edu <wi(a)lists.kit.edu> ************************************************************************************************************* *Call for Papers: WI2020-Community Track “**IT-Beratung im Wandel: Daten, Digitalisierung und Geschäftsmodelle**”* *15. Internationale Konferenz Wirtschaftsinformatik (WI 2020), 9.-11. März in Potsdam*_ _http://wi2020.de/* Track Chairs* Volker Nissen (TU Ilmenau, primärer Kontakt) Thomas Deelmann (FHöV NRW) Paul Drews (Leuphana Universität Lüneburg) *Track Beschreibung* Die IT-Beratung befindet sich derzeit im Wandel. Digitalisierung und Vernetzung sind Themen, die heute auf der strategischen Agenda ihrer Kunden weit oben stehen. Die Unternehmen der IT-Beratungsbranche müssen sich neuen strategischen, organisatorischen und technischen Herausforderungen der Klienten stellen. Im Fokus stehen hierbei neben potenziellen Effizienzgewinnen vor allem umfassende und teilweise disruptive Veränderungen von Geschäftsmodellen. Dabei ist zu beobachten, dass Daten in mehrfacher Hinsicht wachsende Bedeutung erfahren. Neue Geschäftsmodelle beruhen oft auf dem Einsatz von BigData-Technologien, Data Science und datenbasierten Wertschöpfungsketten. IT-Beratungsorganisationen übernehmen dabei eine Katalysatorfunktion: Sie helfen ihren Klienten, das Geschäftsmodell „data-driven“ auszurichten, „Daten in Werte“ zu wandeln und die erforderlichen Veränderungen der IT-Infrastruktur zu planen und umzusetzen. Neben dieser veränderten Dienstleisterrolle werden Beratungsunternehmen auch intern zunehmend „data-driven“. Zum einen können sie Daten stärker in ihre Dienstleistungen integrieren und zum anderen kann ihr eigenes Geschäftsmodell signifikant verändert werden, wenn Daten zur Digitalisierung der Leistungserbringung genutzt werden, was wiederum zur Virtiualisierung von Beratungsleistungen führt. Der Grundgedanke besteht hierbei darin, den persönlichen Vor-Ort-Kontakt von Berater und Klient durch gezielten Einsatz von Technologie auf ein sinnvolles Minimum zu reduzieren. Eine wesentliche Motivation ist der Wunsch, im traditionell schlecht skalierenden Geschäftsmodell der Unternehmensberatung (mehr Projekte brauchen entsprechend mehr Berater) durch Technologieeinsatz eine höhere Skalierbarkeit zu erreichen. Hierfür sind ganz unterschiedliche Ansätze entwickelt worden, deren Extremfall das vollautomatisierte (also rein technologiebasierte) Consulting ist. In diesem Umfeld entstehen derzeit auch Self-Service Consultinglösungen, die Kunden auch ohne Beraterkontakt konsumieren können. Diese Aspekte führen zu der Frage, welche Auswirkungen Daten, Digitalisierung und Vernetzung auf die IT-Beratung haben. Wie werden sich die Geschäftsmodelle, Prozesse und Dienstleistungen der Beraterbranche zukünftig verändern? Die Teilkonferenz ist offen für empirische, gestaltungsorientierte, konzeptionelle und kritische Beiträge in deutscher und englischer Sprache. Nachfolgend (ohne Anspruch auf Vollständigkeit) einige mögliche Themen für Beiträge: ·Aktuelle Trends und Perspektiven in der IT-Beratung und anderen, nah verwandten Professional Service Firms (IT Service Provider, andere Formen der Unternehmensberatung und Wirtschaftsprüfung) ·Änderungen in den Märkten und bei den Klienten der IT-Beratung ·Zusammenwachsen von Beratungsfeldern ·Veränderungen im Geschäftsmodell der IT-Beratung ·Ansätze zur besseren Skalierung in der Unternehmensberatung ·Plattformbasierte Formen des Consultings ·Digitalisierung und Vernetzung bei internen Prozessen von Beratungsanbietern ·Modularisierung der Wertschöpfungskette im Consulting ·Automatisierte Formen der Unternehmensberatung und Self-Service Consulting ·Auswirkungen der Trendthemen Digitalisierung und Vernetzung auf den „War for Talents“ in der Beratung und erforderliche Qualifikationen von BeraterInnen ·Chancen und Risiken der Virtualisierung von Beratungsleistungen aus Berater- und Klientensicht ·Vorgehen bei Virtualisierungsinitiativen in der Unternehmensberatung ·Status quo technologiegetriebener Beratungsansätze in der Praxis ·Fallstudien zum Thema *Wichtige Termine* 15.10.2019 - Deadline für Einreichungen 20.11.2019 - Entscheidung der Reviewer über Annahme 19.12.2019 - Deadline für Revisionen 09.-11.03.2020 – WI 2020 in Potsdam Weitere Informationen zur Konferenz finden Sie unter http://wi2020.de/. ********************************************************************************* Mit besten Grüßen / With best wishes, Volker Nissen ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Prof. Dr. Volker Nissen Chair of Information Systems Engineering in Services University of Technology Ilmenau Faculty of Economic Sciences and Media Institute of Information Systems Engineering P.O.
