Dear colleagues,
For the first time, HICSS-54 (January 5-8, 2021, Kauai) will
feature a special track on Location Intelligence
(
https://hicss.hawaii.edu/tracks-54/location-intelligence/).
CALL FOR PAPERS: Location Intelligence Research Minitrack,
HICSS-54 (2021)
*Description of the minitrack:*
This minitrack aims to discuss the broad area of locational
intelligence. Digital transformation is leading to application of
locational data for organizational intelligence and decision
making in the areas of business operations, marketing, logistics,
supply chain, environment, natural resources, healthcare, retail,
sharing economy, public safety, among others.? Research papers are
sought that apply a variety of theories and empirical techniques,
quantitative, and qualitative, to understand how geography and
location are increasingly important to incorporate into the system
sciences. There is a need to develop new theories and modify
existing ones for the systems sciences that incorporate spatial
data, locational intelligence, and geographical concepts. Current
concepts of data science, big data, trust, and privacy need
attention in addressing locational intelligence research
questions.?
Research papers are solicited across a range of topics, including
but not limited to:
* Spatial Business: Analyses that address a range of business
functions, including marketing, customer relations, operations,
logistics, supply chain, asset and risk management.
* Spatial Health and Healthcare: Analyses that address locational
dimensions of health and delivery of healthcare.
* Sustainability and Climate Change: Analyses that explore the
spatial dimensions of environmental sustainability and climate
change.
* Industry Clusters and Community Development: Analyses that
address spatial aspects of economic development and community
impacts, including infrastructure, workforce, environmental
impacts, and social inequalities.
* Emergency Management and Public Safety: Studies of systems for
locational intelligence and decision-making in crises and
emergencies.
* Location Analytics for Spatial Big Data: Analyses that introduce
and enhance such emerging areas of space-time modeling, spatial
analytics, locational decision-making, geography of the sharing
economy, and spatially referenced social media.
* Spatial Theory, Concepts and Methods: Analyses that explore
innovative approaches to advancing spatial theory, concepts, and
methods.
* Locational Data Privacy and Security: Research on the issues and
problems of locational data privacy and security.
