-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Call for the ICIS2019 PDW "Studying and Theorizing Knowledge Work in the Age of Intelligent Machines" Date: Fri, 27 Sep 2019 16:07:35 +0000 From: Stella Pachidi <s.pachidi(a)jbs.cam.ac.uk> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> "Studying and Theorizing Knowledge Work in the Age of Intelligent Machines” ICIS 2019 Professional Development Workshop (PDW) Date: Monday 16th December 12:00 - 14:30 (lunch included) Event Location: International Congress Center München (ICM), Room TBC Call for registration Abstract: Organizing knowledge work and workers has been a long-standing theme in information systems research (Bailey et al. 2010; Brown and Duguid 2000; Dougherty and Dunne 2012; Newell et al. 2009; Orlikowski 2002; Schultze 2000). Maintaining a focus on knowledge work is critical insofar as so-called “intelligent” machines, such as deep learning algorithms, are changing the ways through which knowledge is created and shared in organizations and epistemic communities more generally (Faraj et al. 2018). Understanding the consequences of emerging knowledge worker-intelligent machine (KWIM) reconfigurations is of huge practical and theoretical significance (Rai et al. 2019). In this PDW, we are interested in exploring the potential opportunities and challenges for studying and theorizing knowledge work in the age of intelligent machines. We will jointly map the current terrain of knowledge work research; discuss what KWIM reconfigurations IS researchers may need to attend to; explore what alternative theoretical lenses might be useful; and reflect on how to tackle potential methodological challenges in studying KWIM reconfigurations. PDW Format: The workshop is intended to be highly interactive. We will kick-off with a short introduction by the organizers and a panel discussion with our facilitators, all of whom are experts in the field of knowledge work: Nicholas Berente, University of Notre Dame USA Panos Constantinides, University of Warwick UK Samer Faraj, McGill University Canada Marleen Huysman, VU Amsterdam The Netherlands Natalia Levina, New York University USA Hila Lifshitz-Assaf, New York University USA We will continue with round table discussions, facilitated by the aforementioned facilitators, on the following topics: A. Learning algorithms and the changing nature of knowledge work B. Automating, Augmenting and Assembling Knowledge Work C. The politics of KWIM reconfigurations D. Epistemological and methodological opportunities and challenges We will conclude in a plenary format, in which we will cover debriefing from the round table discussions, a general Q&A, and a discussion on what further steps we can take to advance research on knowledge work in the era of intelligent machines. Registration details: The PDW is free of charge. However, to ensure PDW discussions are engaging there is a limited number of spaces. Therefore, participants need to pre-register here<https://forms.gle/KwWbNZ4xFHMnc5YM6> by November 15th 2019. The workshop organizers are looking forward to welcoming you in Munich.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] LAST Call CFP: 5th Post-ICIS SIG Social Inclusion (SIGSI) Research Workshop 2019 Date: Wed, 25 Sep 2019 20:36:24 +0000 From: Hala Annabi <hpannabi(a)uw.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> LAST CALL 5th Post-ICIS SIG Social Inclusion (SIGSI) Research Workshop 2019 Munich, Germany - Wednesday December 18, 2019 Submission deadline Friday, October 4, 2019, with notification of acceptance or rejection by Monday, October 14, 2019. SOCIAL INCLUSION: THE HEART OF INNOVATION ECOSYSTEMS & INFORMATION SYSTEMS In the 2019 Post-ICIS research workshop, SIGSI explores the interplay between social inclusion, information systems, and innovation. Innovation in our world is fueled by the interconnectedness of ideas, experiences, and perspectives from individuals and societies across the globe using a range of information systems. Consequently, it is imperative that we understand the role of information systems in individuals' and groups' full participation in the normatively-prescribed activities of the societies in which they are embedded. We invites submission of research ideas, extended abstracts, research-in-progress, and full papers related to the workshop theme of social inclusion in innovation ecosystems and information systems. In addition, we welcome relevant theoretical, empirical, and intervention submissions that relate to the mission of the AIS Special Interest Group on Social Inclusion (SIGSI). SIGSI promotes research, pedagogy, and outreach on all aspects of social inclusion in the field of Information Systems (IS). The goal of such efforts is to stimulate greater diversity of thought and people in AIS and the IS field overall, and participation of all our members in a more socially-aware and inclusive discipline. Relevant research topics include: the role of social inclusion in facilitating innovation across boundaries, how to design IS and innovation ecosystems based on social inclusion principles; critical analysis of measures of efficiency and effectiveness in relation to innovation; the gender gap in the IS field; gender minorities, inclusion of the differently-abled, inclusion of neurodiversity in IT, intersectionality of identities (such as ethnicity, gender and socio-economic class), socioeconomic divisions that impact access to or use of technology, digital inclusion, under-served groups, and a range of topics related to human diversity, and the "haves" and "have nots" in interconnected digital environments. Submitted research can be conceptual, analytical, design-oriented, or empirical. The workshop will include a keynote address, "ignite" lightning talks, and roundtable discussions of submitted work. *** Instructions for Contributors *** We welcome: * Completed research papers (10 pages) * Research-in-progress papers (5 pages) * Extended abstracts (2 pages) * Research ideas (1 page) All submissions will be reviewed.

Please pass it on to your colleagues and students who might be interested in contributing] ================================================================================================================================ Call for Papers Special Issue "Applications of Internet of Things (IoT): Challenges and Opportunities" of Sustainability (ISSN 2071-1050). https://www.mdpi.com/journal/sustainability/special_issues/app_internet ================================================================================================================================ Sustainability (ISSN 2071-1050), IF 2.592, is running a Special Issue on the topic of "Applications of Internet of Things (IoT): Challenges and Opportunities". Dr. David Gil, Dr. Jesús Peral and Dr. Mohan Tanniru are serving as the guest editors. You are cordially invited to submit a contribution to this Special Issue, of either original research or a review. The submission deadline is 30 June 2020. Internet of things (IoT) has made it possible for many devices (sensors, RFID, GPS, and many other types of smart devices) to acquire data on product use in context so as to provide insight and help organizations act to create value. While advanced technologies like big data analytics and machine learning techniques can help gain insight, there are still ways that are needed in order to assist organizations to take actions from these insights. Organizations who can sustain value creation over time are those who can move from analysis to insight to action by evaluating and implementing viable solutions quickly to meet customer needs. This Special Issue seeks to explore how IoT advances are used by cities for sustainability along multiple dimensions. Some examples include water resource management, efficient energy use, and air quality assurance, as well as improving citizen interactions in support of public policy formulation on health, transport, education, and economic development. Specifically, we are looking for innovative tools and techniques used for data analysis, models, and architectures used to gain insights, simulate performance, and coordinate action, as well as leadership models to implement actions.

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

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] [AISWORLD] CFP: The 2019 Pre-ICIS SIGBPS Workshop Date: Tue, 24 Sep 2019 09:03:57 -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. The deadline is fast approaching. --------------------------- 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.

Agrawal, University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, USA, dpa(a)cs.uc.edu Internet of Things (IoT) and CPS (Cyber-Physical Systems) provide mechanisms that are monitored and controlled by computing algorithms that are tightly coupled among users and the Internet. That is, the hardware and the software entities are intertwined and they typically function on different time and location-based scales. Security, privacy and trust in the Internet of Things (IoT) and CPS (Cyber-Physical Systems) are different from conventional security. Different security concerns revolve around the collection, aggregation of data or transmission of data over the network. Analysis of cyber-attack vectors and provision of appropriate mitigation techniques are important research areas with respect to these systems. Adoption of best practices and maintaining a balance between ease of use and security are again crucial for the effective performance of these systems. This book will discuss, present techniques and methodologies as well wide range of examples and illustrations to effectively show the principles, algorithms, challenges, and applications of security, privacy, and trust for IoT and CPS. It will be full of valuable insights into security, privacy, and trust in IoT and CPS and will cover most of the important security aspects and current trends that are missed in other books. In addition, it will be an excellent reference book to courses on security, privacy, and trust for IoT and CPS. The material will prepare readers for exercising better protection/defense in terms of understanding the motivation of attackers and how to deal with as well to mitigate the situation in a better manner. Topics include, but are not limited to, the following: - Fundamentals, Overviews, and Trends of Computer Networks and Cyber Security - Cyber risk, Cyber-crime, Cyber threat analysis, and modeling - Cyber forensic tools, techniques, and analysis - Security of cyber-physical cloud systems - Cloud computing and services for cyber-physical systems - Energy management for cyber-physical cloud systems. - Real-time data analytics and data stream management for cyber-physical systems - Context-aware event processing for cyber-physical systems - Security challenges in cyber-physical cloud systems - Data virtualization and data-as-a-service in cyber-physical systems - Cyber-physical cloud systems for smart city, smart energy grid - Internet of Things and real-time cloud services - Data-driven framework for cyber-physical systems - Situational awareness in cyber-physical systems - Adaptive attack mitigation for CPS - Authentication and access control for CPS - Availability, recovery, and auditing for CPS - Data security and privacy for CPS - Embedded systems security and privacy - EV charging system security - Intrusion detection for CPS - Key management in CPS - Legacy CPS system protection - Lightweight crypto and security - Security and privacy in industrial control systems - Smart grid security - Threat modeling for CPS - Urban transportation system security - Vulnerability analysis for CPS - Wireless sensor network security and privacy - IoT-powered botnets - iBeacon security and privacy - Forensics on IoT devices - HCI and security and privacy in IoT - Mobile service privacy for IoT devices - Reverse engineering and automated analysis of IoT malware - Security and privacy in IoT operating systems and middleware - IoT payment applications - Standardization efforts related to IoT - Testbeds and case studies for IoT - Traffic monitoring and intrusion detection for IoT - Virtualization solutions to IoT security - Security and privacy for IoT-based smart cities - Ethics, legal, and social considerations in IoT security - Biometric modalities involved in IoT security - Cyber attacks detection and prevention systems for IoT networks - Cloud computing-based security solutions for IoT data - Security and privacy issues in heterogeneous IoT - Cloud of Things security and privacy issues - Intrusion detection for IoT - Trust Management for IoT - Deep learning models for the service-centric Internet of things - Deep Learning architectures for optimizing time series computational data in IoTs - Energy Efficient Machine Learning and Data Analytics Techniques in IoT for Industry - Multimedia data management in IoT - Dynamic processes in IoT - Security protocols in service-centric IoT - Information revelation and privacy in IoT - Dependable and Reliable IoT Analytics Proposal submission A proposal for book chapter is needed from prospective authors before the proposal *submission due date*, describing the objective, scope, and structure of the proposed chapter (no more than 5 pages).
