All submissions must be made via the AMCIS 2021 PCS submission systemhttps://new.precisionconference.com/user/login. After creating an account and logging on to the PCS site, authors should go to the “Author Center” to make their submission. Specifically:
* Visit the AMCIS 2021 website for a complete list of tracks and mini-trackshttps://amcis2021.aisconferences.org/track-descriptions/#toggle-id-1-closed that are available and to determine the proper mini-track for your submission prior to submission. Please contact the relevant track/mini-track chairs with any questions or concerns. * If there is any conflict of interest between the author(s) and the track or mini-track chairs, the paper must be submitted to the “General Topics” mini-track within the Advances in Information Systems Research track. * Determine the proper type for your submission by reviewing the types of submissionshttps://amcis2021.aisconferences.org/submissions/types-of-submissions/ on the conference website. Submission instructions, templates, and forms can also be found on the websitehttps://amcis2021.aisconferences.org/submissions/types-of-submissions/.

Systems analysis involves examining business problems (opportunities) and identifying possible solutions, whereas 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, as such, 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, agile systems development practices, 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. 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 * 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) * 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.)
One more focused minitrack is also a part of the Systems Analysis and Design Track:
SAND Minitrack 1 – Modeling Languages, Methodologies, Methods, Techniques, and Tools This minitrack recognizes the important role modeling languages, methodologies, methods, and tools play in SAND. This minitrack provides a forum for researchers, educators, and practitioners working in the areas of modelling language development, use, modification, and evaluation. We are particularly interested in papers that combine conceptual modelling with emerging trends like Artificial Intelligence and in pieces that target the changing role modelling and models can take now and in future. An objective of this minitrack is to work toward a more standardized set of concepts which would in turn benefit researchers, educators, and practitioners in this field while also considering recent developments in domain-specific conceptual modelling. We welcome empirical, conceptual, theoretical, and technical pieces, and are open to all research methods. The most promising submissions will be invited for a fast-track to the Journal of Database Management. Contacts for the minitrack are: Dominik Bork dominik.bork@tuwien.ac.atmailto:dominik.bork@tuwien.ac.at John Erickson johnerickson@unomaha.edumailto:johnerickson@unomaha.edu Keng Siau siauk@mst.edumailto:siauk@mst.edu Xin Tan xtan@fdu.edumailto:xtan@fdu.edu
