Fwd: [AISWorld] 2nd CFP: Journal of Information Technology on Ethical Issues and Unintended Consequences of Digitalization and Platformization
by Gustaf Neumann 20 Jan '21

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] 2nd CFP: Journal of Information Technology on Ethical Issues and Unintended Consequences of Digitalization and Platformization Date: Wed, 20 Jan 2021 17:20:14 +0000 From: Rossi Matti <matti.rossi(a)aalto.fi> To: Isworld <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> This is a 2nd call for papers for this special issue and we believe that it is very timely given the recent episodes concerning politics and Twitter and Parler and the role and power of these social networks, and the infrastructure that they rely on, in the society. “Ethical Issues and Unintended Consequences of Digitalization and Platformization” Special Issue Editors: Matti Rossi, Aalto University – Finland (corresponding, matti.rossi(a)aalto.fi) Christy M. K. Cheung, Hong Kong Baptist University – Hong Kong Suprateek (“Supra”) Sarker, University of Virginia – USA Jason B. Thatcher, Temple University – USA Disruptive digital innovations do not come without pain – the disorder that they introduce can create negative externalities and unintended consequences for people, communities, industries and economies. In the worst case, there is disruption with little innovation. This can lead to job losses for individuals, loss of human dignity, negative health impacts, lost revenue for communities, obsolescence of industries and loss of the traditional values that underpin modern societies. Sarker et al. (2019) note that “humanistic concerns arising from the curtailing of human freedom and development, and from racism, sexism and commodification of the human body are overlooked for the apparent benefits that systems, including widely used search engines and medical databases, promise to deliver (Noble 2018; Wachter-Boettcher 2017). Indeed, there is a rising need for a thorough ethical interrogation of algorithms (O’Neil 2016) that underlie systems mediating many critical human activities, so as not to marginalize certain stakeholders, especially those ‘who are already in the margin’ (Noble 2018, p. 171).” In this special issue, we take critical, yet constructive view of technological and social changes associated with “digital transformation” (Zuboff 2015, Wood et al. 2019, Larsson and Teigland 2020). We are interested in contrarian papers that reject the taken-for-granted assumptions of positive impacts of technology, as in cases of digital platforms, telework enabled by mobility, growth of the gig economy, fintech/blockchain, and so on, and investigate relatively unexamined platform externalities as a means to identify ways to resolve paradoxes, discontinuities and challenges posed by technology and the unintended consequences of technology applications. We also seek papers that shed light on the problems of information technology (IT)-enabled phenomena such as the implications of winner-takes-all platform economics; highlight the social, environmental and economic implications of blockchain and similar innovative digital technologies; or propose solutions that mitigate negative societal impacts of innovation (e.g., through leveraging the power social networks to disseminate information and strengthen democratic discourse). We encourage the submission of manuscripts taking either of two stances: 1. Submissions considering a critical or dystopian view of the social, technological and moral implications of digitization and digital transformation. Here, “the dark side” – ethical Issues, unintended digitalization and other problematic aspects – of digitalization and platformization are front and centre the argument. An example may be Zuboff’s (2015, 2019) recent work on surveillance capitalism and her analyses of large-scale digitization “gone wrong”. 1. Submissions seeking to balance or reconcile “the dark side” and “the bright side” of digitalization and platformization. Here, analyses, exemplars and theoretical frameworks considered ethical issues and negative consequences explicitly, in addition to intended benefits of digitalization too often exclusively focused on. An example may be social media research: initial writings trumpeted the benefits of social media for building relationships, with later work highlighting problematic behaviours such as cyberbullying or doxxing. In this special issue, we are open to all forms of inquiry, including surveys, experiments, case studies, design science projects and conceptual work that probe “the dark side”, ethical issues and unintended consequences of digitization, platformization and the rapid diffusion of digital infrastructures and digital work models based thereon. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Digital Taylorism and the race to the bottom for workers * Destruction of jobs by “botization” * Risks for society from fast-spreading false information * Systemic risks and vulnerability of digital platforms * Management incompetence in digital transformation * Risks of IoT and blockchain * Dark side and ethics of sharing economy and gig economy * Digital privacy and surveillance capitalism * Bias in algorithms and artificial intelligence * Digital inequity and digital divide between “the North” and “the South” * Fake news, misinformation, and disinformation in social media * Fake and biased online reviews and co-creation on digital platforms * The emergence of deep web/darknet marketplaces * Subjective well-being (e.g., FOMO and social media fatigue) * Cyberharassment, cyberbullying and cyberstalking Submission Timetable Manuscripts will go through no more than two rounds of review. § Authors are invited to submit abstracts of papers aimed at the special issue directly to the special issue editors (via email) for early feedback. § First round submission: 1st June 2021 § First round decision to authors: 1st Oct 2021 § Special issue workshop at ICIS 2021 (TBA) § Second round submission: 1st Feb 2022 § Second round decision to authors: 1st Apr 2022 (reject or accept w minor revision) Editorial Review Board Margunn Aanestad, Agder University, Norway Alexander Benlian, TU Darmstadt, Germany Michelle Carter, Washington State University, USA Tommy Chan, Northumbria University, UK Mike Dinger, University of South Carolina-Upstate, USA Taha Havakor, Temple University USA J.

Fwd: [AISWorld] CFP: 2nd International Workshop on Next Generation Information Systems (NeGIS 2021)
by Gustaf Neumann 19 Jan '21

19 Jan '21

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP: 2nd International Workshop on Next Generation Information Systems (NeGIS 2021) Date: Tue, 19 Jan 2021 15:28:07 +0100 From: Monica Vitali <monica.vitali(a)polimi.it> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org ========================================================== 2nd International Workshop on Next Generation Information Systems: Emerging Challenges in Fog and Cloud Computing (NeGIS 2021) Co-located with CAiSE'21 29th June 2021Melbourne, Australia www.negis.polimi.it @ <https://twitter.com/EnBIS2016>NeGIS_workshop ========================================================== SCOPE ====== The amount of data and services supported by Information Systems (ISs) has increased exponentially during the last few years. To improve their efficiency and reduce costs, modern organizations have been shifting their services, with part of their ISs, to the Cloud. More recent developments have shown an inversion towards decentralization and distribution of applications and services in the huge pool of devices and computing facilities available nearer to the customers. This shift is due to the impact of the Internet of Things, which is further increasing the amount of data to be stored and computed. The next generation of Information Systems will further push these trends to create seamless and pervasive systems. Fog Computing, in particular, is the last frontier for ISs, where data and services can be moved in the continuum of resources between the cloud and the edge. In this context, the management of ISs can exploit the diversification of the resources available, but at the same time is getting more and more complex and challenging. The management of next-generation ISs should, therefore, take into consideration the heterogeneity of the cloud/fog infrastructure. Such complex architecture is posing new challenges in the management of modern applications, especially in reference to enhancement of quality of service, security, privacy, and energy efficiency. In particular, security and privacy need to be considered for the amount of sensitive data possibly produced, while energy efficiency is central, due to the high amount of computational nodes involved. Approaches such as blockchains and distributed learning can be exploited to face these emerging challenges, but universally accepted solutions for next-generation ISs are yet to be found. In this workshop, we aim to collect contributions investigating the management of cloud and fog computing in next-generation Information Systems. Topics include but are not limited to: - Modeling, Monitoring, and Managing Cloud and Fog computing solutions - Models, methods, and tools for data management in Cloud and Fog Computing - Energy-awareness and sustainability in Distributed Information Systems - Quality of Service, energy efficiency and security in Fog Computing - Blockchain proposals for IoT and edge devices - Blockchain-based architectures for Fog Computing - Distributed and Federated Learning in heterogeneous Information Systems - Synergy between Distributed Information Systems and the Internet of Things - Security and privacy solutions for next-generation Information Systems. Negis2021 will be co-located in Melbourne with the 33rd International Conference on Advanced Information Systems (CAISE'21, 28 June-2 July 2021). BEST PAPER AWARD ================= The best paper will be considered for publication in the International Journal of Cooperative Information Systems (IJCIS). To be selected the paper must include a validation of the proposed approach. The authors of the paper selected as the best paper will have to provide an extended version for submission to a fast evaluation track. KEY DATES ========= Abstract submission: 22nd February 2021 Full paper submissions: 1st March 2021 Notification of acceptance: 6th April 2021 Camera-ready copies: 12th April 2021 Workshop: 29th June 2021 SUBMISSION ========== The workshop is addressed to researchers with a background in the field of Emerging Challenges of information systems in Cloud and Fog Computing. Contributions will be evaluated for their relevance to the workshop topics and will be blind reviewed by at least three PC members. The workshop will be divided into two main parts. In the first part, authors of accepted papers will present their work. This part will be divided into sessions according to the topics that emerged from the contributions. The second part will be a round table for discussing issues and solutions, aiming at enhancing collaboration.

Fwd: [AISWorld] AMCIS 2021 CFP: Agile Project Management (IT Project Management Track)
by Gustaf Neumann 19 Jan '21

19 Jan '21

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] AMCIS 2021 CFP: Agile Project Management (IT Project Management Track) Date: Tue, 19 Jan 2021 11:25:45 +0000 From: Meghann L. Drury-Grogan <mdrury(a)fordham.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org Dear Colleagues, We are seeking high quality research papers for this minitrack that investigate various aspects of *Agile Project Management*, sponsored by the SIG ITProjMgmt. Agile methodologies are a large part of IT project management. They strive to reduce the cost of change throughout the software development process and rely heavily on teams and teamwork. Therefore, a better understanding of the factors that help teams using agile methodologies drive project success is needed. Further difficulties for organizations relate to sustaining the use of agile methodologies in the long-term and the management of a potentially diverse range of agile projects at the portfolio level. These and related items will be explored in this minitrack. Possible topics include, but are not limited to: - Agile and adaptive IT project management versus traditional management - Agile project portfolio management - Best practices in agile project management - Challenges implementing and sustaining agile methodologies - Communication and interaction on agile teams - Controls used in agile teams - Decision-making and governance in agile teams - Evaluation and reward systems used by agile teams - Managing co-located, virtual and/or distributed agile teams - Trends in agile project management Agile methodologies strive to reduce the cost of change throughout the software development process and improve development quality and timeliness. Though success stories with the adoption of agile methodologies exist, managers struggle with maintaining agile methodologies in the long-term. Agile methodologies rely heavily on teams and teamwork. Therefore, management must develop a better understanding of factors that agile teams drive project success. These may include selecting appropriate team personnel; developing effective team communication processes; creating an open work environment; ensuring correct decisions are made; implementing appropriate controls; encouraging continuous customer communication; and establishing evaluation and reward systems for individual and team performance. A further difficulty is managing a potentially diverse range of agile projects at the portfolio level. Agile project portfolio management provides opportunities that a traditional project portfolio would not allow, such as more transparent metrics, frequent management review meetings, and a quicker readjustment of project priorities and resources. *Important Dates:* Full paper submissions (<5000 words, excluding references, tables, and figures) and ERF papers (<3500 words, excluding references, tables, and figures) must be made electronically through Manuscript Central. Papers will be peer reviewed using a double-blind system. January 2021: System opens for Completed and ERF paper submissions February 28, 2021: System closes for Completed and ERF paper submissions April 2021: Notification of initial decisions on Completed and ERF paper submissions More information is available at https://amcis2021.aisconferences.org/ or by contacting the minitrack chairs: 1.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CfP and Smart Teaser for ISESL - IS Engineering for Smarter Life Workshop, Springer (joined to CAISE 2021) Date: Tue, 19 Jan 2021 11:11:19 +0100 From: Elena Kornyshova <elena.kornyshova(a)cnam.fr> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org, ifip-wg81(a)idi.ntnu.no *Interested in Smart Life? Take a look on our Smart Teaser <https://youtu.be/v-zb8YILoyo>!* <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-zb8YILoyo> ******************** *CALL FOR PAPERS* *Second International Workshop on Information Systems Engineering for Smarter Life 2021* *(ISESL 2021)*** /Joined to CAISE 2021, Melbourne, Australia, 28 June 2021 - 2 July 2021/ (http://isesl21.cnam.fr/ <http://isesl21.cnam.fr/>) In the era of Digitalization, new technologies (Internet of Things, Augmented reality, Cyber-Physical Systems, Cloud Computing, Machine Learning, and so on) change not only enterprises and organizations functioning, but also all aspects of human life: robots assisted disabled people, smart buildings, digital enhanced visits for museums, serious games for learning… the list is long. These various technologies are intended to improve or enhance life of Humans. In one way or another, they contribute to a Smarter Life. Until now, digital technologies have been brought into the game as silo solutions. Reasoning holistically about information in the context of a bank or a manufacturing plant is routine practice. However, it is less common with emerging technologies for everyday life public digital application. We deeply believe that methods, models and techniques inherited from IS engineering research could considerably improve the way human interact with the digital world and would change the user experience. The goal of the workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners who are interested in the application of disruptive technologies to Smarter Life. The workshop topics include, but are not limited to, the application and emerging concepts of rising digital technologies to different fields of life through the perspective of information systems: * Artificial Sentience and Artificial Intelligence * Machine consciousness * Cognitive spaces * Patient experience design and health, Point-of-care diagnosis, E-Health * Digital heritage * Sustainable development, Responsible ICT * Digital education and teaching experience design for World Wide audience * Smart Home, Smart Buildings, Smart Roads, Smart Cities * Cyber warfare, Digitalization in law enforcement * Ethical and philosophical aspects of new technologies usage with Humans. *Submission:* The length of the paper should not exceed 12 pages (including all text, figures, references and appendices) for full papers, or 6 pages for short papers.
