Through selecting or composing appropriate web services, an enterprise or organization can accelerate its system development, optimize system performances and gain more profits (Liu et al., 2017; Shih et al., 2019; Zhang et al., 2016). The recently emerged new computing paradigms (e.g., cloud, edge and fog), on one hand, widen the scope of applications of services computing technology (Deng et al., 2014; Wang et al., 2017; Mahmud et al., 2018), on the other hand bring additional difficulties and challenges in terms of resource load (Vaquero et al., 2014; Shi et al., 2016), energy cost (Roman et al., 2018), link switch (Zhang et al., 2018), quality optimization (Guan et al., 2018; Gong et al., 2018), and so on. Therefore, it becomes a necessity to combine the advantages of both the services computing technology and the cloud/edge/fog computing paradigms. This special session aims to highlight the cutting-edge research and applications related to the “Service Computing Innovations in the Cloud, Edge and Fog Environment”.

OSN content (e.g., online reviews, eWOM via tweets, likes, claps) differs in nature and frequency, and OSN structure increases the content’s reach and propagation speed by orders of magnitude. Further, the content can be continuously captured at the finest level of granularity. Unstructured data in this form that is disseminated over OSN provides a lean yet in many ways unique and rich means of communication that has the potential to not only influence receivers (consumers, colleagues, stakeholders, etc.), but also to provide a window into the participants’ information needs, responses to incentive structures, and the collective sentiments of social groups (consumers, employees, voters, etc.). This mini-track invites original research on the use of analytical techniques to advance the theories of social networks to further understand social influence, human behavior and decision-making, network structures, and information diffusion. Topics may include the following: • Emerging architecture for scalable social media analytics • Social network and Geospatial analytics, • Visual social network analytics • Privacy and security in social networks • Communities structure discoveries such as profiling participants, and subgroups • User sentiment analysis, opinion mining, and recommendation analysis • User empowerment and social movements with OSN • Impact of OSN on brand communication, advertising, and e-commerce • Use of theories to understand user communication patterns and behavior in social media • Impact of OSN on decision-making at the individual and organizational level • Integration of OSN in enterprise processes and systems • Ethical concerns about the nature of OSN content and spread of misinformation Selected papers from the mini-track will be eligible for a fast-track review for publication consideration in the e-Service Journal ( https://www.jstor.org/journal/eservicej). **Submissions due by Friday, February 28, 2020,5:00 pm MST (7:00 pm EST) **Submission Instructions: https://amcis2020.aisconferences.org/submissions/types-of-submissions/ Mini-Track co-chairs: Amit Deokar, UMass Lowell, USA, amit_deokar(a)uml.edu Babita Gupta, California State University Monterey Bay, USA, bgupta(a)csumb.edu Uday Kulkarni, Arizona State University, USA, uday.kulkarni(a)asu.edu Best wishes, Babita ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Babita Gupta, Ph.D. Professor of Information Systems Director of AACSB Accreditation College of Business California State University Monterey Bay Room 326, Gambord BIT Building, 3052 Divarty Street, Seaside, CA 93955 Phone: 831-582-4186 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Board Member: Teradata University Network <http://www.teradatauniversitynetwork.com/> _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org

Fwd: [AISWorld] CFP - AMCIS 2020 Minitrack: Fake News, Rumors, and Other Unintended Consequences of Engagement in Virtual Communities
by Gustaf Neumann 20 Feb '20

20 Feb '20

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP - AMCIS 2020 Minitrack: Fake News, Rumors, and Other Unintended Consequences of Engagement in Virtual Communities Date: Thu, 20 Feb 2020 17:58:25 +0000 From: Vikas Jain <VJAIN(a)ut.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Call for Papers Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS'20) August 12-16, 2020 Salt Lake City, Utah Track: Virtual Communities and Collaboration Minitrack: Fake News, Rumors, and Other Unintended Consequences of Engagement in Virtual Communities Description: Virtual communities enabled by social media are providing new opportunities for people to engage with each other. Such engagements span across personal, political, social, or economic spheres. Recently, such engagements have been exploited to spread fake news, rumors, biased reporting, or for promoting unsupported viewpoints. Some other unintended effects include cyberbullying, suppression of alternate viewpoints, or promotion of narratives disconnected from facts. These reflect unintended consequences of engagement in virtual communities that have the potential to significantly influence the discourse of social, political, moral, or economic debate. It cannot be denied that virtual communities hold a lot of potential for beneficial and positive engagement among the community members but there is a need to examine some of these unintended consequences prevalent in virtual communities. The objective of this mini-track is to provide a forum for discussion and presentation of original r esearch highlighting some of these unintended consequences and subsequent challenges/or solutions to deal with them. We seek papers that address nature of unintended consequence of engagements in virtual communities from a theoretical, conceptual, or empirical perspective. Both quantitative and qualitative studies are welcome. In alignment with theme of AMCIS 2020, we are pleased to invite submission of completed research papers and research-in-progress papers for the mini-track: Fake News, Rumors, and Other Unintended Consequences of Engagement in Virtual Communities. This mini-track aims to increase our understanding and awareness of the unintended consequences of people's engagement to virtual communities as facilitated through social media. While virtual communities are primarily purposed to foster collaboration among individuals with shared purpose, interest and goals, recent engagements in these communities have been exploited to facilitate behaviors that potentially bring about disruptive social, political, moral and even economic unintended outcomes. Spreading of fake news and rumors, and promotion of groundless opinions to gain some political advantage are examples of such unintended consequential behaviors. We welcome both quantitative and qualitative studies that explicate the theoretical, conce ptual and empirical nature of similar unintended consequences of virtual communities. In addition, papers that model and analyze impacts, spread and drivers of factors across similar topic areas are welcome. Potential topics may include (but are not limited to): * Cyberbullying, cyber-aggression, and unwanted contact * Harassment, intimidation and stalking * Damaged reputation due to rumors or gossips * Online deception * Sex and violence * Inadvertent disclosure of private information * Changes to relationships between public and private sphere * Suppression of alternate viewpoints * Promotion of narratives disconnected from facts * Data mining in virtual communities for malicious intent * Use of personal data by third-parties, hacking and identify theft Submission Process: Paper submissions must be made electronically through AMCIS 2020 Manuscript Submission Site https://new.precisionconference.com/ais. Papers will be peer reviewed using a double-blind system. Important Dates: Jan. 6, 2020: Submission system opens Feb. 28, 2020: Completed Research and ERF submissions due (5:00p.m. MST) April 22, 2020: Camera-ready papers due (5:00p.m. MST) More information is available at https://amcis2020.aisconferences.org/track-descriptions/#toggle-id-26 Or by contacting the minitrack co-chairs.

The recent events like US presidential elections in 2016 or earlier events like Arab Uprising demonstrate the profound impact that such newer technologies can have in reshaping the democratic processes. With the potential to influence millions of people across the world, such new technologies have not only enabled new ways to engage people in civic processes but have also posed challenges to governments across the world in ensuring that citizens are appropriately informed. It is an opportune time to engage in a research discussion on how to leverage newer technologies to strengthen existing civic and democratic processes and minimize some of the unintended consequences. The objective of this mini-track is to provide a forum for discussion and presentation of original research highlighting role of newer technologies like smart devices, social media, or Internet of Things (IoT), in shaping the technical, organizational, managerial and socio-economic aspects of civic and democratic processes. We seek to invite papers that identify emerging frameworks of democratic engagement enabled by these newer technologies and highlight the opportunities/challenges posed to governments across the world. We seek papers from a theoretical, conceptual, or empirical perspective to set the stage for future research direction for reshaping civic engagement using newer technologies across countries. Both quantitative as well as qualitative studies from developed and developing countries perspectives are encouraged. Potential topics may include (but are not limited to): * Impact of social media on civic and democratic processes * New civic and democratic engagement models/frameworks in digital age * Information bias and its impact on civic and democratic processes * Rumors and fake news in digital age and its impact on democratic outcomes * Civic engagement challenges in digital age * Evaluation models for assessing impact of newer information technologies on civic and democratic processes * Data analytics strategies to expand civic and democratic engagement * Case studies documenting success/failure of information technologies in expanding civic and democratic engagement Paper submissions must be made electronically through AMCIS 2020 Manuscript Submission Site https://new.precisionconference.com/ais Papers will be peer reviewed using a double-blind system.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] EJIS Special Issue on The Dark Side of Analytics and Artificial Intelligence. Deadline March 31st Date: Thu, 20 Feb 2020 10:47:58 +0000 From: Conboy, Kieran <kieran.conboy(a)nuigalway.ie> To: AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org <AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org> The European Journal of Information Systems special issue on “The Dark Side of Analytics and Artificial Intelligence". Deadline March 31st. Guest editors: Patrick Mikalef, Ales Popovic, Jenny Eriksson Lundström and Kieran Conboy Please note the upcoming deadline for this special issue. This special issue will extend the critical reflection on the impact and unintended consequences of big data analytics and AI. Specifically, we aim to attract submissions that delve into the many misplaced assumptions and potential dangers that AI might introduce in the organizational setting. Such negative implications tend to be often overlooked by empirical research studies and their consequence seldom discussed. We invite the submission of original manuscripts that advance empirical, theoretical, and conceptual understanding of the consequences and effects of how big data analytics and AI drive digital business strategy. Manuscripts must have substantial implications for theory and practice, and we welcome both empirical papers and conceptual theory development papers, as well as other genres. We are particularly interested in manuscripts that address the challenges and changes that these technological innovations bring to strategic management theories, and how such technologies may change the way we think about how organisations operate and compete. The special issue is designed to embrace a variety of perspectives on emerging technological innovations, information systems, and digital business strategy research. Purely computer science papers are not within the scope of this special issue. For more information see: https://nbviewer.jupyter.org/github/GoodmanRichard/EJIS/blob/master/The%20D… Important dates: - Initial paper submission deadline: March 31st, 2020 - First round authors notification: May 31st, 2020 - Invited revisions deadline: July 15th, 2020 - Second round authors notification: August 31st, 2020 - Final revision deadline: October 15th, 2020 - Final authors notification: December 15th, 2020 - Projected publication: Spring 2021 Do not hesitate to get in touch with me or my co-editors If you are interested in submitting and would like to discuss your ideas.
