## Track Description ##
Interacting with information technology (IT) has become a
pervasive element in private and business life. With the advanced
development of IT in a digitizing world, humans constantly adjust
to the latest technological circumstances and adapt their routines
and habits accordingly. Similarly, system designers need to build
on a profound theoretical and methodological knowledge base for
the design, implementation, and evaluation of novel artefacts in a
highly competitive and dynamic market environment. The
interdisciplinary area of design research in Information Systems
is concerned with informing the design of IT artefacts by
establishing and applying comprehensive (design) theories,
exploring and testing models with rigorous research, providing
validated evaluation methods and design guidelines, as well as
designing and evaluating IT artefacts.
In information systems, scholars can follow different approaches
when engaging in design-oriented research. Firstly, researchers
can engage in artefact creation following design science research
(DSR). Here, the focus is to identify and understand an important
real-world problem and provide a solution for it by building and
evaluating artefacts. Researchers thereby can contribute with
theory-grounded and artefact-centric design knowledge to the
scientific knowledge base. Secondly, researchers can engage in
understanding and investigating specific design elements of an
information system by conducting empirical research, both
qualitatively and quantitatively (e.g., interviews, laboratory
experiments, surveys). By doing so, researchers can also
contribute valuable design knowledge.
The aim of this track is to stimulate research that extends the
scientific knowledge base for design research in information
systems in general and for a digitizing world in particular. We
thereby seek research that produces novel design knowledge about
IT artefacts for addressing real-world problems (e.g., data-driven
design, digital assistants, socially influencing systems),
methodological contributions for the design of such systems (e.g.,
cross-disciplinary research, participatory-design, user experience
engineering), as well as research addressing the implications of
specific design elements of information systems (e.g. flow,
privacy). We welcome a diversity of submissions focusing on
designing, developing, and evaluating IT artefacts, adding to the
theoretical and methodological knowledge base about design
research in information systems and the role of design research in
problem domains, and exploring tool support for design science
research.

## Publishing Opportunities in IS Transaction on Human-Computer
Interaction (THCI) ##
High quality and relevant papers from this track will be
considered for selection for fast-tracked development towards
publication in AIS Transactions on Human-Computer Interaction
(
http://aisel.aisnet.org/thci/). Selected papers will need to
expand in content and length in line with the requirements for
standard research articles published in the journal. Although the
track co-chairs are committed to guiding the selected papers
towards final publication, further reviews may be needed before
final publication decision can be made.
AIS Transaction on Human-Computer Interaction (THCI) is a
high-quality peer-reviewed international scholarly journal on
Human-Computer Interaction. THCI is oriented to the Information
Systems community, emphasizing applications in business,
managerial, organizational, and cultural contexts. However, it is
open to all related communities that share intellectual interests
in HCI phenomena and issues.

- Shirley Gregor, Australian National University, Australia
- Marc T. P. Adam, The University of Newcastle, Australia
Paper submission deadline: 29th November 2019.
