-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] AMCIS 2020 CFP - Computational Social Science Research through Analytics minitrack Date: Sat, 22 Feb 2020 15:11:16 -0800 From: Au Vo <auvo1001(a)gmail.com> To: This is the AISWorld List Server <aisworld(a)lists.aisnet.org> Dear Colleagues: Please consider submitting a manuscript to the Computational Social Science Research through Analytics minitrack under the AMCIS 2020 Data Science and Analytics for Decision Support Track. AMCIS 2020 will take place in Salt Lake City, Utah on August 12-16. The online submission system opens on January 6 and closes on February 28. Following is a short description of our minitrack and if you have any other questions, do not hesitate to contact us. We look forward to seeing you in Salt Lake City in 2020. Computational social science research has garnered much interest from multiple disciplines through the use of massive, multi-faceted, and authentic data. A recent trend in understanding social phenomena using computational social science research, especially through the use of analytics has led to many discoveries of, and confirmation of hypotheses and theories. The interdisciplinary nature of computational social science research is suitable for our field, for Information Systems has the ability to demonstrate both rigor and relevance of answering social science questions through innovative use of data analytics. As a discipline, Information Systems enable the collection, processing, and analyzing trace data, which are event-based records of activities of transactions that could be found in systems across organizations and the Internet. Therefore, our field are poised to explicate interesting and valuable insights. Thanks to the implosion in data analytics tools such as data mining, machine learning, artificial intelligence, researchers have the ability to augment understanding of existing problems and elucidate current perplexing issues. Large-scale problems are no longer a hard-to-reach problem, but an interesting one with a plethora of research directions. In general, the guideline for computational research has percolated through various disciplines via leading research outlets like Nature, Information Systems Research, Management Information Systems Quarterly, and Communications of the ACM have started to solicit calls in this nascent research field to attract more researchers to work on interesting problems and theory building from data. This minitrack encourages research on the utilization of data to explore, and potentially answer social phenomena. Submissions may focus on descriptive research process, novel algorithm designs, questions forming, new and interesting directions in computational social science. In addition, nascent theory forming through a bottom up approach using data is especially encouraged. Research in any domains are welcome, including but not pertaining only to, persuasion, ethics, equality, social benefit distribution, and humanitarian efforts. Below is a list of recommended topics, however, other relevant topics are also welcome: * Algorithm designs in Computational Social Science * Computational Social Science strategies and research processes * The role of Information Systems in Computational Social Science * Computational Social Science interdisciplinary research * Computational Social Science with Big Data applications * Computational Social Science in changing and/or influencing human behaviors * Ethics of Computational Social Science research on human behaviors * Nascent theory and hypothesis forming through the use of data (quantitative grounded theory) (Berente, Seidel, & Safadi, 2018; Conte et al., 2012; Giles, 2012; Rai, 2016; Wallach, 2018) Reference Berente, N., Seidel, S., & Safadi, H.

Please consider submitting your paper to our minitrack on how analytics, AI and other Epistemic Technologies transform organizing at AMCIS 2020. This minitrack aims to explore how the use of new epistemic technologies in organizations influence key aspects of organizing, including processes of information processing, insight generation, decision making, organizational structuring, and strategizing. We define epistemic technologies as tools that play a key part in the ongoing construction of knowledge (Anthony 2018). Such technologies include, for example, big data analytics tools, Artificial Intelligence tools, augmented reality applications, and technologies that leverage the Internet of Things (IoT). The reliance of these new epistemic technologies on data and algorithms poses unique challenges for organizations and has given rise to several debates in the academic community (Günther et al. 2017). The emergence of new epistemic technologies calls for a better understanding of distinct digital practices that are enacted as organizations actually leverage such technologies in practice (Baiyere et al. 2017), as well as how this may or may not allow organizations to actually create social and economic value (Sumbal et al. 2019). To understand how organizations may leverage such technologies requires examinations of the processes around the information value chain (Abbasi et al. 2016) as they take place in organizational context. The minitrack is open to any methodology that suitably examines the phenomenon including quantitative, qualitative as well as conceptual papers. We highly value work that takes a longitudinal perspective and aims to understand how organizations, and people, actually work with epistemic technologies in practice. In doing so, scholars may rely on different types of data and a range of (mixed) methods, such as qualitative observations, document content analysis, and advanced analytical techniques to model and understand people's actions and behavior. Emphasis will be placed on interdisciplinary studies that bridge the domains of organizational theory and information systems as well as information sciences. Broadly the topics of interest include but are not limited to the following: * Data-driven decision-making v/s intuition-based decision-making in organizations * New epistemic technologies and transformation of organizational decision-making processes * New epistemic technologies and transformation of organizational decision-making structure * New epistemic technologies and transformation of strategizing / strategy making processes * New epistemic technologies and transformation of organizational as well as individual identity * New epistemic technologies and the emergence of data science as a new occupation * New epistemic technologies and insights generation processes Submission Process: Paper submissions must be made electronically through AMCIS 2020 Manuscript Submission Site https://new.precisionconference.com/ais<https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fnew.preci…>.

It also provides opportunities to interact with experts or peers to facilitate learning. Virtual environments provide platforms for individuals to collaborate and acquire information in a variety of domains. These environments present new channels to educate others on various topics, as well as learn about a particular domain from others’ knowledge and experiences. Organizations are utilizing virtual collaborations to support knowledge sharing with existing and potential customers, stakeholders, partners, and employees. However, concerns, such as privacy-related issues and performance issues of virtual collaborations, also arise with virtual environments. Hence, this minitrack seeks to explore the opportunities as well as the issues associated with virtual collaborations for knowledge sharing and learning. We encourage paper submissions that study the development, use, and assessment of virtual collaborations for knowledge sharing in learning and training contexts from a variety of perspectives (e.g., individual, organizational, and international). We welcome papers that study the application of virtual collaborations for knowledge sharing and learning as well as challenge such applications. This minitrack is open to both theoretical and empirical studies, and is open to all research methods (e.g., survey, field study, case study, experimentation). Potential topics may include (but are not limited to): * Development of frameworks for evaluating virtual collaborations for knowledge sharing in learning and training contexts * Theoretical models describing the development, use, and assessment of virtual collaborations for knowledge sharing and learning * Research on novel, innovative uses of virtual technologies and data analytics for virtual collaborations for knowledge sharing and learning * Examinations of implementations, adoptions, and outcomes of virtual collaborations for knowledge sharing and learning along with factors influencing these activities * Meta-analyses and meta-syntheses of research and the implications for virtual collaborations for knowledge sharing and learning * Issues, limitations, and barriers surrounding virtual collaborations for knowledge sharing and learning Submission Process: Paper submissions must be made electronically through AMCIS 2020 Manuscript Submission Site https://new.precisionconference.com/ais.

One of the first results of the AI-HLEG has been to deliver ethics guidelines on Artificial Intelligence (https://ec.europa.eu/futurium/en/ai-alliance-consultation/guidelines). These guidelines put forward a human-centered approach to AI, and list seven key requirements that human-centered, trustworthy AI systems should meet, summarized by the following headers: 1. Human agency and oversight 2. Technical robustness and safety 3. Privacy and data governance 4. Transparency 5. Diversity, non-discrimination and fairness 6. Societal and environmental wellbeing 7. Accountability Many of today's most popular AI methods, however, fail to meet these guidelines: making them compliant is a scientific endeavor that is as crucial as it is challenging and stimulating. Systems based on deep learning are a case in point: while these systems often provide impressive results, their ability to _explain_ these results to the user is very limited, challenging requirements 4 and 7; in most cases we lack ways to formally _verify_ their correctness and assess their boundary conditions, challenging requirement 2; and we don't yet have methods to allow humans to _collaboratively_ influence or question their decisions, challenging requirement 1. Similar criticalities are present in many other popular AI methods. This full day workshop will collectively address the fundamental questions of what are the scientific and technological gaps that we have to fill in order to make AI systems _human-centered_ in terms of the above guidelines. PAPER SUBMISSION ---------------- Contributions are seeked on new foundations for building Human-Centered AI systems, able to comply with AI-HLEG recommendations. Contributions are seeked in the form of full papers (max 7 pages plus references) presenting mature results, or position papers and reports of relevant ongoing work (max 4 pages including references). More specific topics include, but are not limited to: - Explainable AI - Verifiable AI - Technical robustness and safety of AI systems - Collaboration between humans and AI systems - Integrating model-based and data-driven AI - Integrating symbolic- and sub-symbolic AI - Mixed initiative AI-Human systems - Proactive AI systems in human environments - Understanding and naturally interacting with humans - Understanding and interaction in complex social settings - Reflexivity and expectation managament - Integrating Learning, Reasoning and Acting in AI systems - Integrating human and robot cognition Papers should be formatted according to the ECAI2020 formatting style, available at the ECAI2020 website (ecai2020.eu). Submissions are not anonymous. Accepted papers will be made available on the workshop site, and must be presented at the workshop. There will be no official proceedings, but we will consider editing a special issue including extended versions of the presented papers.

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”.
