Systems Analysis and Design (SAND) - General Track Description:
There are many and varied aspects of SAND, both traditional approaches and emerging perspectives, with new technologies increasingly incorporated into our everyday work and personal lives and the growing digitalization of organizations and workplaces. New challenges (e.g., digital transformation, changes in technology expectations as we start to emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic, etc.) continue to require our attention to the analysis and design efforts providing opportunities for both research and practice.
Systems Analysis involves examining business problems (opportunities) and identifying possible solutions; systems design includes the identification, specification, and implementation of an information technology solution. The combined field of Systems Analysis and Design (SAND) deals with all issues related to the development of systems and is of central importance to the Information Systems discipline, including understanding how businesses can create value with new digital technologies. The SAND track provides a forum for discussing research related to systems development tools, methodologies, and other activities throughout the systems development life cycle (SDLC). This includes requirements determination, modeling techniques and languages (including AI and machine learning capabilities), agile systems development practices, DevOps and related implementation approaches, empirical evaluation of analysis and design methods, user involvement in systems development, open-source development, design of systems architecture, and other technical and organizational issues in systems development.
SAND topics include, but are not limited to:
* Systems Analysis and Design: Methodologies and Design Processes * Systems Analysis and Design: Empirical Evaluations, Modeling Methods, Techniques, and Languages * Systems Analysis and Design: Requirements Elicitation, Modeling, and Validation * Analysis and Design for Service-Oriented Enterprises * Micro-service-based Development (DevOps, etc.) * Contemporary Issues in Agile Development * Strategic Software Management: Issues, Experiences, and Theory * Technical and Managerial Issues in Open Source Development * User Participation and Involvement in Information Systems Development * Impact of Systems Analysis and Design on IS use (e.g., adoption, information quality) * Comparative Analysis of SAND Approaches and Techniques * Application of SAND concepts and principles beyond IS development (e.g., in data analytics) * Organizational Issues in Systems Analysis and Design * General Systems Analysis and Design * New and Emerging SAND Tools and Approaches (especially as used for AI/ML, Blockchain, Analytics, IoT/AoT, etc.) * History of SAND
Feel free to contact us if you have any questions.

Mini-Track Information
Mini-Track: The Applications of Systems Analysis and Design Models in Less Developing and Developing Countries Many organisations everywhere around the globe, including those in developing regions, are intimately involved in developing and implementing their Information Systems (IS) projects. To admiringly develop these IS projects, those organisations have spent lots of funding and time to ensure they are fitted with the latest system design and analysis methods. Nonetheless, the literature is still scarce, with published evidence showing that these companies claim to have successfully used these acquired analysis and design techniques. Consequently, these intricate system analysis and design models endorsed in developed nations may only remain theoretical with limited use. Moreover, many of these system analysis and design techniques had never succeeded in the claimed benefits made when they were acquired, which begs the principal research question of the present deployment state of system analysis and design in these companies, particularly in the less developing and developing regions.

Mini-Track: Sustainability and social fairness in context of information system design Information technology, and sciences are critical levers of societal transformation to achieve sustainable development. Digital technologies especially can pose a threat to the environment and society, but they can also pave the way out of crises. Thus, information systems (IS) research, which investigates the application of information technology in organizations to support operations, management and decision-making, needs to pay particular attention to achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals. However, research and practice on this crucial topic are mainly lacking, especially since the field is experiencing dynamic development. For example, little consideration is given to the needs and the involvement of developing countries or minorities in IS development, or to the energy consumed while producing hardware. There is, furthermore, still a lack of sufficient framework conditions to ensure non-discrimination as early as technology development. Both policymakers and, in particular, companies are responsible here. Mini-Track Chairs are:

Mini-Track: Exploring the Phenomenon of Low Code Development Platforms
From the early start of the IS discipline, practices, organization, and management of IS Development, have been central research areas. New techniques and methods are becoming popular to develop systems as quickly and efficiently as possible, especially with business development goals in mind. However, in practice, IS development projects continue to fail at a high rate, as measured by delays, time and budget overruns, and the inability to meet expected functionality and quality. Low code development platforms (LCDPs) may be a solution to overcome these as they allow the quick development and deployment of applications without the need for a programmer. This mini-track provides a forum for discussing research related to LCDPs based on a phenomenon-driven approach. We seek papers that focus on organizational, group, and individual levels analysis of LCDPs. We invite submissions based on conceptual/theoretical or empirical studies using qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods. Mini-Track Chairs are:
