-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP SI: Business Analytics for the Management of Information Systems Development Date: Wed, 22 Jul 2020 11:33:22 +0000 From: Dennehy, Denis <denis.dennehy(a)nuigalway.ie> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Special issue call for papers from Information Technology & People Submission deadline: 30th September 2020 Special issue editors: Denis Dennehy, National University of Ireland Galway, Ireland Email: denis.dennehy(a)nuigalway.ie<mailto:denis.dennehy@nuigalway.ie> Ilias Pappas, University of Agder, Norway Email: ilias.pappas(a)uia.no<mailto:%20ilias.pappas@uia.no> Samuel Fossa Wamba, Toulouse Business School, France Email: s.fosso-wamba(a)tbs-education.fr<mailto:s.fosso-wamba@tbs-education.fr> Katina Michael, Arizona State University, USA Email: katina.michael(a)asu.edu <mailto:katina.michael@asu.edu> <mailto:katina.michael@asu.edu>Overview of Special Issue Information Systems Development (ISD) has been part of the intellectual core of information systems for over 40 years (Obrand et al., 2018; Sidorova et al., 2008). Its chequered history of successes and failures has, however, been an ongoing concern of the IS research community (Dwivedi et al., 2015; Hassan & Mathiassen, 2017). Despite efforts to improve the management of ISD projects, these efforts have not had the desired effect (Lim et al., 2011). There is anecdotal evidence that business analytics can help project managers to (i) understand the dynamics and collective state of complex projects, (ii) detect and forecast trends, (iii) improve the effectiveness of risk models, (iv) evaluate the effectiveness of a change to the development process, and (v) distinguish questions of ‘information’ from questions of ‘insight’ (Davenport et al., 2010). Business analytics are frequently referred to as ‘the techniques, technologies, systems, practices, methodologies, and applications that analyse critical business data to help an enterprise better understand its business and market and make timely decisions’ (Chen et al., 2012, p.1166). Yet, much of the research conducted to date has focused on the technologies of business analytics and not enough on the people and their organisational context in which such technologies are intended to be used (Abbasi et al, 2017; Conboy et al., 2018; Mikalef et al., 2019). This is a significant limitation given that the ISD environment is a highly metric oriented, complex, and socially embedded activity that is continuously changing (Conboy, 2009; Kudaravalli et al., 2017; Windeler et al., 2017). This special issue seeks to collect contemporary research on the latest developments and challenges of how organisations exploit business analytics to support project/portfolio managers, project teams, and other project stakeholders. Indicative List of Anticipated Themes This special issue seeks a wide range of articles that draw on diverse project settings, theories, and approaches to understand the different aspects of business analytics as applied to the context of ISD. The following questions are of interest for the special issue: • How can business analytics be used to better understand and manage ISD projects? • What value does business analytics provide to ISD management and development teams? • What tensions arise from the integration of business analytics with traditional and agile methods and practices? • What are the emerging best practices that enable business analytics to be embedded within the ISD process and the wider organisation? • Does the deployment of business analytics make existing agile methods and practices less valuable or even obsolete? • What new metrics and standards can business analytics provide to manage and control ISD projects more effectively? • How can business analytics enable organisational learning and innovation in the context of ISD? • How are business analytics being applied in various types (distributed, large scale) of ISD projects? • How can business analytics support the scaling of ISD projects? • What are the change management and organisational cultural issues that need to be considered when developing analytical capabilities? • How can business analytics provide new ways of working in ISD projects? • What ethical issues stem from the use of business analytics in ISD projects? • How can business analytics be used to support more effective decision making? • What are the new theories and theoretical developments to explain the implementation and use of business analytics in ISD projects? These questions are not intended to be exhaustive. Rather they are intended to stimulate thinking about the role of business analytics in the management of ISD projects across various levels of analysis - from participants in individual projects through projects, programs, portfolios, organisations, and the wider society. We welcome submissions that address questions pertaining to all aspects of the intersection of business analytics and ISD project management.

Well-known examples are blockchain-based approaches for cryptocurrencies or smart contracts for the automated, distributed and transparent execution of algorithms without intermediaries. For introducing these technologies in real-life enterprise scenarios it is however essential to align them with business requirements and show their added value. For this purpose, methods of conceptual modeling can contribute for enabling the communication in organizations, deriving and aligning requirements for technical implementations or even creating code that can be executed using DLT. In this workshop we thus aim to bring together researchers working on the interface between conceptual modeling and DLT for presenting and discussing their most recent research results. The workshop will be held for the second time in the context of the ER'2020 conference in Vienna, Austria. Topics for this workshop include but are not limited to the following: * Domain-specific modeling languages for blockchains and smart contracts * Modeling the strategy, processes and implementation of decentralized organizations * Enterprise architecture models utilizing DLT infrastructure * Business process and workfow modeling and execution on the blockchain * Modeling approaches for blockchains, smart contracts and decentralized applications (DApps) * Model-driven engineering and generative approaches for blockchains and smart contracts * Attestation and identity for blockchains and smart contracts utilizing conceptual models * Collaborative modeling approaches using blockchain and DLT infrastructures * Blockchains and DLT infrastructure for managing, versioning and collaborating on models * Privacy, anonymity and data protection for enterprise models supported by blockchains * Value creation and supply chain models for decentralized value creation * Visualization of DLT infrastructure, blockchain transactions and smart contracts using conceptual models Submissions and Formatting Guidelines Since the proceedings will be published by Springer in the LNCS series, authors must submit manuscripts using the LNCS style. The page limit for submitted papers (as well as for final, camera-ready papers) is 10. Manuscripts not submitted in the LNCS style or exceeding the page limit will not be reviewed and automatically rejected. Authors should consult Springer's authors' guidelines (ftp://ftp.springernature.com/cs-proceeding/svproc/guidelines/Springer_Guide…) and use their proceedings templates, either for LaTeX (ftp://ftp.springernature.com/cs-proceeding/llncs/llncs2e.zip) or for Word (ftp://ftp.springernature.com/cs-proceeding/llncs/word/splnproc1703.zip), for the preparation of their papers. Springer encourages authors to include their ORCIDs in their papers. In case of acceptance, the corresponding author of each paper, acting on behalf of all of the authors of that paper, must complete and sign this Consent-to-Publish form (https://www3.unifr.ch/inf/digits/en/assets/public/files/events/mod-dlt-er20…). The corresponding author signing the copyright form should match the corresponding author marked on the paper.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] 2020 Dewald Roode Workshop on Information Systems Security Research Date: Tue, 21 Jul 2020 15:27:06 +0000 From: Chen, Rui [ISBA] <ruichen(a)iastate.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Dear colleagues: This is a friendly reminder that paper submission of the 2020 Dewald Roode Workshop on Information Systems Security Research will close on August 1st. This year, the workshop will be held as a virtual conference. Paper authors and the audience will interact during live WebEx meetings. Both Completed Research and Early-Stage Research are welcome. High quality papers will be fast tracked to the AIS Transactions on Human-Computer Interaction. The workshop registration fee is $35. We provide a number of registration fee waiver for PhD student participants. Beside research presentations, the workshop features speeches by: * Professor Arun Rai, Editor-in-Chief, MIS Quarterly * Meg Anderson, Chief Information Security Officer, Principal Financial Group Details of the workshop are available below: https://www.ivybusiness.iastate.edu/events/the-2020-dewald-roode-workshop-o… Best, Rui Chen Iowa State University ---------------------------------------------- The 2020 Dewald Roode Workshop on Information Systems Security Research IFIP WG8.11/WG11.13 Friday October 2 – Saturday October 3, 2020 CALL FOR PAPERS The 12th Dewald Roode Workshop on Information Systems Security Research will continue the efforts to advance the discipline of information systems security through the creation, dissemination, and preservation of well-formed research, following the success of the first eleven Information Systems Security Research Workshops (University of Cape Town, 2009; Bentley University, 2010; Virginia Tech, 2011; Brigham Young University, 2012; University at Buffalo, 2013; Newcastle University, 2014; University of Delaware, 2015; University of New Mexico, 2016; University of South Florida, 2017; University of Cape Town, 2018; Louisiana Tech University, 2019). 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). High quality papers will be fast tracked to the AIS Transactions on Human-Computer Interaction. Selection for the workshop is competitive, and only authors of the accepted papers and the active working group members will be invited to participate. 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 2020 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 • Behavioral analyses of design science treatments enhancing or balancing security and privacy tradeoffs CONFERENCE LOGISTICS Honorary Chair Joey George, Iowa State University General Chair Rui (Ray) Chen, Iowa State University Program Co-Chairs (in alphabetic order) Mala Kaul, University of Nevada, Reno Mark J Keith, Brigham Young University Yuan Li, University of Tennessee SUBMISSION INFORMATION Submission deadline (extended): August 1, 2020 Notification to authors: September 1, 2020 Attending participants must register by September 15, 2020 Deadline for final papers: September 15, 2020 (to be distributed to workshop attendees in advance) Click here to submit your paper: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=drw2020 Manuscripts will be prescreened by the program chairs to ensure that all papers sent to reviewers are reasonably complete, well-formed, and appropriate to the scope and mission of the workshop. Double blind reviews will follow for prescreened papers. No requirement on paper length or formatting style. Authors should designate below the title whether the manuscript is being submitted as “early stage” or “completed papers.” Manuscripts must be anonymous for the review process. In recognition that the review process greatly relies upon a scarce resource of the services of reviewers, authors, by the act of submission, are implicitly promising to serve as a reviewer on one to two conference papers, if requested. For general questions about the workshop, please contact Rui (Ray) Chen at ruichen(a)iastate.edu For questions about the program, please contact Mala Kaul (mkaul(a)unr.edu), Mark J Keith (mark.keith(a)gmail.com), or Yuan Li (yli213(a)utk.edu) SPONSORSHIP The Ivy College of Business at Iowa State University sponsors this event. The IFIP Working Group 8.11/11.13 holds The Dewald Roode Workshop on Information Systems Security Research annually. WG 8.11/11.13 (Allen Johnston, Chair; Manish Agrawal, Vice Chair) is the IFIP Working Group on Information Systems Security Research.

Fwd: [AISWorld] Call for Papers: ModComp'20 (at MoDELS): 7th International Workshop on Interplay of Model-Driven and Component-Based Software Engineering
by Gustaf Neumann 22 Jul '20

22 Jul '20

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Call for Papers: ModComp'20 (at MoDELS): 7th International Workshop on Interplay of Model-Driven and Component-Based Software Engineering Date: Tue, 21 Jul 2020 16:47:50 +0200 From: Andreas Wortmann <wortmann(a)se-rwth.de> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org CALL FOR PAPERS ModComp'20 (at MoDELS): 7th International Workshop on Interplay of Model-Driven and Component-Based Software Engineering http://www.es.mdh.se/ModComp/ ----------------- IMPORTANT DATES ----------------- Deadline for papers submission: 26 July, 2020 Notification of acceptance: 21 August, 2020 Camera ready: 28 August, 2020 Online pre-proceedings: 01 October, 2020 Workshop date (TBD): 18-20 October, 2020 ----------------- SCOPE ----------------- Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) and Component-Based Software Engineering (CBSE) have been shown to effectively reduce software development complexity by (i) shifting the focus from source code to models and (ii) building software systems as the composition of new and existing components, respectively. Moreover, the interplay of MDE and CBSE approaches is gaining recognition as a very promising means to boost the development of software systems by reducing costs and risks and shorten time-to-market. While several attempts to effectively combine MDE and CBSE have been documented, there are still unsolved clashes arising when exploiting interplay of MDE and CBSE, mostly due to mismatches in the related terminology as well as to differences in their basic essence. As a satellite event of MoDELS'20, the goal of ModComp’20 is to gather researchers and practitioners to share opinions, propose solutions to open challenges and generally explore the frontiers of interweaving between MDE and CBSE. ----------------- TOPICS ----------------- Solicited topics include, but are not limited to: - Partial model reuse and composition: once individual components are modelled (interfaces and behavior), these models should be reusable in the different usage contexts of these components. Moreover, it should be possible to build a system model by composition of pre-existing models of individual components; - Component/module-based versioning: in order to handle evolution when for instance one component is upgraded to a newer version; - Modelling component interaction and component behaviours: clear separation of internal behaviour and externally visible interaction capabilities, e.g. by interface protocols; - Model extraction for componentization of legacy systems: when legacy systems are componentized, generation of architectural and behavioural models from, e.g., implementation artefacts is needed in order to get full support from model-based activities such as analysis, e.g. if those components are reused in a new context. Along with implementation artefacts, other kinds of information regarding any observation of the system at runtime, such as, e.g., log files, system execution traces, traces, might need to be considered for reverse componentization; - Component interoperability: in order to enable the automated construction of semantic matching and mapping between different modelling notations (e.g., component models) with emphasis on precise syntactic, protocol and operational descriptions of components; - Management and elicitation of modular interdependencies in models: to infer and support automated reasoning on the possible interdependencies between the different software models exploited throughout the software life cycle; - Evolution of component models: tackling challenges in component models evolution and model co-evolution which are amplified by the high degree of interchangeability typical of CBSE; - Model transformations in presence of third-party components: exploring how model-driven techniques may deal with third-party components, especially concerning the preservation of system properties (both functional and extra-functional) along the involved model manipulations for e.g. analysis, code generation, etc; - (Meta)model and model transformation modularity: reasoning on issues related to composability of (i) metamodels, (ii) views in terms of (meta)model portions, (iii) transformation portions from different languages, and (iv) transformation rules; - Composition of (meta)models and model transformations: model transformations, and/or (meta)model viewpoints could take advantage of CBSE advancements in order to ease their reuse, and composition; - Enforcement of incrementality: models and model manipulations to support incremental verification and validation of component-based systems; - Case studies, applications, tool demo: best practices applied to real world applications, lessons learned, success/failure stories in intertwining MDE and CBSE. ----------------- SUBMISSION ----------------- ModComp'20 welcomes research papers, experience papers and tool presentations; nevertheless, papers describing novel research contributions and innovative applications are of particular interest. Two types of submission are solicited: full and short papers. - Full papers: with a maximum of 10 pages, including figures, appendices AND references), full papers clearly describe the situation or the problem tackled, the relevant state of the art, the position or solution suggested and the potential benefits of the contribution. Systematic and empirical reports are welcome too. - Short papers: with a maximum of 5 pages, including figures, appendices AND references, short papers include tool demonstrations, position papers, industrial experiences and case-studies, well-pondered and sufficiently documented visionary papers. Tools in demonstrations should be made available for use to the reviewers. Contributions should represent original and previously unpublished ideas that are currently not under review in any conference or journal. Each submitted paper undergoes a formal peer review process by a minimum of 3 Program Committee members. Submitted papers should include authors' names, affiliations and contact information. Special issue at SoSyM: We plan to organize a theme issue at SoSyM to which the best papers from the workshop will be invited for being submitted in extended form. The extended papers would undergo a new peer-reviewing process. ----------------- ORGANIZATION ----------------- Workshop organizers and chairs Federico Ciccozzi (main contact), Mälardalen University (Sweden) Antonio Cicchetti, Mälardalen University (Sweden) Andreas Wortmann, RWTH Aachen University (Germany) ----------------- CONTACT ----------------- Website: http://www.es.mdh.se/ModComp/ Main contact: Federico Ciccozzi, federico.ciccozzi[at]mdh.se _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org
