Objective and Aspirations
The purpose of the mini-track is raise
attention of Information
Systems researchers to the emerging area of Mobile Consumer Services
and
Applications. Our objective is to provide a discussion forum for
researchers
whom are interested in the development and design of mobile information
systems
primarily for consumer use. The opportunity to present and debate
theory-based
solutions for problems that industry is currently facing in the field
of
consumers mobile services and applications will help the advancement of
design
science research within this paradigm.
Amazing business and technology successes
such as Apple’s iPhone and
App Store for distributing associated applications is motivating
Information
Systems researchers to shift the focus of design and development
oriented
research towards the understanding of what challenges consumers as
end-users of
mobile services and application create and how theorizing might improve
the
development and design of mobile services and applications. The
emerging area
of Consumer Information Systems brings up interesting problems that
have not
yet been studied. For example, traditional information systems
development
approaches focus on improving the efficiency and effectiveness of
organizational processes whereas design for consumer information
systems may
require an emphasis on hedonic value derived in the consumer
experience. We see
that the shift in focus from users to consumers calls for a significant
re-appraisal of our current information systems development methods and
the
ways we design mobile services and applications.
We welcome papers that investigate different aspects of designing mobile services and applications for consumers with the preference of using Design Science Research as the research methodology for the studies.
