13 Feb '21

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP AMCIS2021 - TRACK: AI and Semantic Technologies for Intelligent Information Systems (SIG ODIS) Date: Sat, 13 Feb 2021 15:33:27 -0500 From: Vijayan Sugumaran <sugumara(a)oakland.edu> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org CALL FOR PAPERS AMCIS 2021 Virtual Conference, August 9 - 13, 2021 Paper submission deadline: March 1 (5:00pm Eastern Standard Time, US) Submission System Link: <https://new.precisionconference.com/user/login> https://new.precisionconference.com/user/login TRACK: AI and Semantic Technologies for Intelligent Information Systems Sponsoring SIG: SIGODIS The purpose of this track is to provide a forum for academics and practitioners to identify and explore the issues, opportunities, and solutions using Artificial Intelligence, computational ontologies, data driven IS, and intelligence related to business and systems including the social web, intelligent systems design, implementation, integration and deployment. An increasing number of artificial intelligence-based systems are being developed in different application domains employing a variety of tools and technologies. This track is intended to increase cross-fertilization of ideas from these areas, share lessons learned and stimulate areas for further research. Track Chair: Don Heath, University of Wisconsin Oshkosh (drheath2(a)gmail.com <mailto:drheath2@gmail.com> ) Mini-track: Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning: Antecedents, Mechanisms, and Consequences - Social, Ethical, & Practical Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) have brought significant changes to workplaces and our daily lives. However, there are many issues that remain unresolved. In this mini-track, we focus on the social, ethical, and practical aspects of AI and ML, and investigate the antecedents, mechanisms, and consequences of the use of AL and ML. Issues of interest include but are not limited to the following: 1) factors affecting automation through AI and ML, including both technical and practical factors, 2) how to automate work through AI and ML, 3) how AI and ML are used in practice, 4) issues related to the use of AI and ML, such as legal, ethical, governance, and biased use. 5) consequences and impact of use of AI and ML, such as operational efficiency and effectiveness, business performance, job displacement, and dark side of AI or ML. Mini-track Chair: Gang Peng (gpeng(a)fullerton.edu <mailto:gpeng@fullerton.edu> ) Mini-track: Innovative Technologies for Managing Data-intensive Systems Evoked by recent trends, such as big data, data science or cloud computing, the planning and engineering of IS in today's data-driven world is getting progressively a more complex task. In many cases, sophisticated approaches are required to overcome the data-intensive nature of such endeavors. At this point, established technologies, as they have been used for many years, are reaching their limits. However, innovative technologies and concepts, such as automation, continuous integration, micro services, domain specific ontologies or decision support systems appear to be promising "enablers" to meet the current demands. To overcome their realization shortcomings, a plethora of facets must be handled. Hence, in this mini-track, we welcome a variety of research approaches including, but not limited to, theoretical articles, reviews and use case studies that are related to the use of innovative technologies for planning, engineering, deploying, testing and operating data-intensive systems. Mini-track co-chairs: Matthias Volk (matthias.volk(a)ovgu.de <mailto:matthias.volk@ovgu.de> ) Daniel Staegemann (daniel.staegemann(a)ovgu.de <mailto:daniel.staegemann@ovgu.de> ) Mini-track: Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning and Automation in Business - Tools, Technologies, and Techniques Artificial Intelligence (AI) is assuming increasing importance in business, specifically in the areas of machine learning, analytics, statistical analyses, and a variety of big data-related topics. The purpose of this mini-track is to provide a venue for forum for researchers involved in basic discovery investigations, applied research investigating business phenomena, and tool or platform development associated with large data sets or other AI-related areas. Mini-track co-chairs: John Erickson (johnerickson(a)unomaha.edu <mailto:johnerickson@unomaha.edu> ) Keng Siau (siauk(a)mst.edu <mailto:siauk@mst.edu> ) Mini-track: Promises and Perils of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning: Disruption, Adoption, Dehumanisation, Governance, Risk and Compliance In the last decade, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) have developed from peripheral technologies to dominant drivers of innovation. They are routinely used to recognize images; parse speech; respond to questions; make decisions; and replace humans. Given that AI and ML tools are becoming a part of our everyday lives, it is critical that researchers and practitioners understand their state of art, adoption and influence. Improperly deployed AI and ML tools can incorporate biases, violate privacy, threaten safety, and take questionable decisions that can affect individuals, organizations and ultimately society. This mini-track will focus on the promises and perils of AI and ML with a particular focus on (a) adoption, (b) disruption, (c) potential dehumanisation, and (c) governance, risk and compliance mechanisms required to protect and enhance human wellbeing. We welcome wide-ranging papers with qualitative and quantitative orientations; with theoretical and practical contributions; from personal, organizational and societal perspectives. Mini-track co-chairs: Valeria Sadovykh (valeriasadovykh(a)gmail.com <mailto:valeriasadovykh@gmail.com> ) David Sundaram (d.sundaram(a)auckland.ac.nz <mailto:d.sundaram@auckland.ac.nz> ) Kevin Craig (kac0117(a)auburn.edu <mailto:kac0117@auburn.edu> ) Mini-track: Artificial Intelligence and its Role in Intelligent Systems Artificial Intelligence and Intelligent Systems are experiencing a resurgence. Significant progress has been made over the last few years in the development of machine learning, and computational intelligence techniques such as bio/nature-inspired computing, deep learning, and cognitive computing. Similarly, there is an upsurge in the application of AI technologies and multi-agent systems in a variety of fields such as electronic commerce, internet of things, computer vision, natural language processing, speech and voice recognition, and healthcare. While research on various aspects of artificial intelligence is progressing at a very fast pace, there are still a number of issues that have to be explored in terms of the design, implementation and deployment of AI applications and multi-agent systems. This mini-track provides a forum for sharing cutting edge research in AI applications and their implications on organizations. Best papers from this mini-track will be fast tracked for publication in a special issue of International Journal of Intelligent Information Technologies (http://www.idea-group.com/IJIIT). Mini-track co-chairs: Vijayan Sugumaran (sugumara(a)oakland.edu <mailto:sugumara@oakland.edu> ) Stefan Kirn (stefan.kirn(a)uni-hohenheim.de <mailto:stefan.kirn@uni-hohenheim.de> ) Mini-track: Customer Experience and Organizational Intelligence Increasingly, organizations are interacting with current and potential customers across a plenitude of IT-mediated "touch points". Consequently, coordinating strategies will likely dominate management thought in the near and intermediate term as the number and variety of these "touch points" continues to expand. Effective strategies will rely on quality practitioner and academic research on a variety of issues, such as how to: differentiate user experience across points of interaction, increase reach to the consumer, improve conversion rates, sustain consumer loyalty, manage the global and the local experience, etc. The end customer is at the focus, with various technologies, devices and networks facilitating seamless computing, communication, collaboration as well as commerce related functionalities to the end users. This is made possible by embedding data, sensors, controllers, and other devices into the physical and virtual spaces of human beings thereby facilitating seamless interactions and co-engagement between the end customer and the organization.

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] GOING VIRTUAL - The 20th IFIP Conference e-Business, e-Services, and e-Society I3E2021 Date: Fri, 12 Feb 2021 17:06:22 +0000 From: Dennehy, Denis <denis.dennehy(a)nuigalway.ie> To: aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> The 20th IFIP Conference e-Business, e-Services, and e-Society I3E2021 (A virtual conference including live keynote presentations, paper presentations, and networking events) Responsible AI and Analytics for an Ethical and Inclusive Digitised Society 1st – 3rd September 2021 NUI Galway, Galway, Ireland www.I3E2021.com<http://www.i3e2021.com/> AI, analytics, and ICT in general, create opportunities and unintended or negative consequences for individuals and society (cf. Ransbotham et al., 2016; Majchrzak et al., 2016). These opportunities and consequences have not been evenly distributed. Despite the many personal, economic, and societal benefits offered by AI and analytics, its use raises a variety of ethical concerns. Ethics permeates the entire analytics process, from what data to use, to how to represent the extracted knowledge and exploit the insights to create economic and social value. Ethical concerns (i.e. illegitimate surveillance, invasion of privacy, unemployment, malicious use etc.) are frequently used to portray AI and analytics as ‘a danger to humanity’. These concerns warrant the attention of the academic community who are in a privileged position within society to raise awareness about the responsible design, implementation and use of AI, analytics, and ICT. At the same time, AI and analytics has opened new domains of exclusion and privilege for some, leaving some individuals and communities excluded from the digitised society. For example, digital exclusion is part of the overall challenge of exclusion, a growing phenomenon which carries with it a series of deteriorations in life paths (i.e. poor lifelong earnings and an increased risk of marginalisation). There are many who are currently excluded for reasons of low income and education, location, culture, trust and confidence levels or various disabilities (European Commission). Success in the increasingly digitised society requires a comprehensive approach to fostering an ethical and inclusive society. The 20th IFIP Conference on e-Business, e-Services, and e-Society aims to bring together contributions from a variety of perspectives, disciplines and communities for the advancement of knowledge regarding Responsible AI and Analytics for an Ethical and Inclusive Digitised Society. To this end, we invite scholars, practitioners and research students to submit and present their papers and findings to the 20th IFIP Conference on e-Business, e-Services, and e-Society to be held in September 2021 at NUI Galway, Galway, Ireland. Theoretical and empirical papers employing quantitative, qualitative, and/or critical methods are welcomed. Submission Guidelines Authors should submit original, unpublished research papers.

Fwd: [AISWorld] CFP: AMCIS 2021: Blockchain for Development
by Gustaf Neumann 11 Feb '21

-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] CFP: AMCIS 2021: Blockchain for Development Date: Thu, 11 Feb 2021 11:55:35 +0000 From: Paulo Rupino Cunha <rupino(a)dei.uc.pt> To: ISWorld list <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Dear colleagues, Keep in mind that the successful Blockchain for Development minitrack, under the Global Developmen (SIG GlobDev) track, will have another edition in AMCIS 2021. CALL FOR PAPERS - BLOCKCHAIN FOR DEVELOPMENT Blockchain is emerging as a very promising technology.using cryptographic mechanisms that render the records virtually immutable. This enables transparency, auditability, and resilience. Additionally, Blockchains can also store and enforce smart contracts – pieces of code that are executed automatically once predetermined conditions are met – further reducing uncertainty and promoting confidence among stakeholders that would not normally trust each other and, thus, dispensing with middlemen. This has led to innovative experiments in high profile areas, such as financial services, insurance, healthcare, value chains, shipping and logistics, Internet-of-Things, Intellectual Property Rights licensing, and crowdfunding, among others. In addition, Blockchain also holds a huge potential for development in general and emerging economies in particular. It can foster more democratic mechanisms and help fight corruption. It can enable secure and lean ID mechanisms, reduce the number of unbanked, prevent voting fraud and tax evasion, improve government management of public benefits, reduce commissions on remittances of emigrants, control donations and charity initiatives, or ensure integrity of public records. In the past, we have seen emerging economies lag in ICT adoption when compared with developed counterparts. With Blockchain, however, the opportunity exists to implement the technology in the same time frame, to address afflicting areas and even leapfrog established solutions in others. Topics of interest for this minitrack include, but are not limited to: ● The social and organizational impact of Blockchain for Development ● Blockchain for Development case studies, applications, and implementations ● Alternative ID systems based on Blockchain ● Blockchain in e-government and public administration ● Barriers and enablers in the adoption of Blockchain for Development ● Blockchain and traditional pain points in Development ● Blockchain and voting ● Blockchain and the legal system ● Blockchain and regulatory frameworks ● Smart contracts ● Alternative uses of the Blockchain ● Tokens, ICOs, fundraising ● Blockchain and disruptive innovation ● Business models supported on Blockchain Important Dates • January 6, 2021: Manuscript submissions begin • March 1, 2021: Completed research and ERF submissions are due at 5 p.m. EST • April 21, 2021: Workshop, panel, TREO and PDS submissions are due at 5 p.m. EST Minitrack chairs • Paulo Rupino da Cunha, University of Coimbra, Portugal, rupino(a)dei.uc.pt <mailto:rupino@dei.uc.pt> • Piotr Soja, Cracow University of Economics, Poland, eisoja(a)cyf-kr.edu.pl <mailto:eisoja@cyf-kr.edu.pl> • Marinos Themistocleous, University of Nicosia, Cyprus and University of Piraeus, Greece, themistocleous.m(a)unic.ac.cy <mailto:themistocleous.m@unic.ac.cy> _______________________________________________ AISWorld mailing list AISWorld(a)lists.aisnet.org
