*************************************************

CALL FOR PAPERS Forty-Ninth Annual Hawai'i International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS-49) January 5-8, 2016 (Tuesday-Friday) The Grand Hyatt Kauai Resort & Spa ( http://kauai.hyatt.com/en/hotel/home.html)

Track: Knowledge Innovation and Entrepreneurial Systems ( http://www.hicss.org/#!track8/c1pkx) Minitrack: Designing and Deploying Advanced Knowledge Systems ( http://www.hicss.org/#!designing-and-deploying-knowledge-system/cbcm)

The objective of this minitrack is to contribute to the body of knowledge that helps academics and practitioners to: * design, deploy and evaluate advanced knowledge systems, * explore and leverage appropriate project management methods and tools for designing and deploying knowledge systems, and * study changing organizational knowledge processes and structures.

Researchers and practitioners interested in submitting papers to this minitrack are encouraged to explore (1) the design, evaluation and deployment of knowledge systems that integrate emerging technologies like social media, mashups, ubiquitous IT; (2) project management methods and tools involved in the design and deployment of such knowledge systems; and/or (3) changing organizational knowledge processes and structures due to the use of these technologies. We welcome an integrative view spanning the entire life-cycle of knowledge systems - from knowledge systems design through deployment to retirement.

Topics and research areas include, but are not limited to: * Methodologies, tools, processes, and technologies for developing knowledge systems * Management of design and deployment projects of knowledge systems * Empirical studies of designing and using knowledge systems * Systems design for social knowledge creation and use (e.g. social media system architectures) * Incorporating and/or integrating knowledge services and mashups, social media, Web 2.0, cloud computing, and/or ubiquitous technologies in knowledge systems * The design, evaluation and/or use of processes, semantic technologies, knowledge retrieval and representation methods, and/or systems to map, track, and/or visualize social networks and/or work systems in order to facilitate knowledge creation and sharing and quick problem solving (e.g., when unexpected coordination breakdowns emerge) * Co-design of organizational work systems and knowledge systems * Design processes and representations for designing work systems and knowledge systems * The role of organizational digital natives in the design and use of knowledge systems * Design science and design theory research in knowledge systems design and deployment * Kernel (reference) theories for knowledge systems design and deployment (e.g., theories for individual, team and organizational learning)

For additional information or to submit abstracts, please contact the co-chairs:

Co-chairs: Timo Käkölä Department of Computer Science and Information Systems University of Jyväskylä 40014, Finland Email: timokk<at>jyu.fi Web: http://users.jyu.fi/~timokk/

HICSS conferences are devoted to the most relevant advances in the information, computer, and system sciences, and encompass developments in both theory and practice. Accepted papers may be theoretical, conceptual, tutorial or descriptive in nature. Those selected for presentation will be included in the Conference Proceedings published by the IEEE Computer Society and maintained in the IEEE Digital Library.

2015 Dates For Submission to HICSS-49 ( http://www.hicss.org/#!call-for-papers/c1cd9): June 15: Deadline to submit full manuscripts for review. Review is double-blind; therefore this submission must be without author names. August 16: Acceptance/Rejection notification will be sent to authors. All travel guarantees – including visa or fiscal/ funding procedures – should begin immediately after you receive the notification of acceptance. Make sure your server accepts the address from our review system. August 19: Contact your Minitrack Chair if you have not received acceptance/rejection notification August 16 - September 4: If your paper is accepted with mandatory changes (AM), you must make specified changes, and resubmit your paper to the Paper Submission and Review System for reconsideration, still without author names. September 4: Submission deadline for AM papers September 11: Contact your Minitrack Chair if you have not received a revised decision September 15: Deadline for submitting final manuscript for publication to the Publication System (not the previous Paper Submission and Review System). Add author names, affiliation, and email address to your papers. At least one author of each paper should register by September 15 in order secure publication in the Conference Proceedings. October 1: Early Registration fee ($675) deadline. (Fees will increase to $750 on October 2 and $850 on December 2.) October 15: Papers without at least one registered author will be removed from the Proceedings. Authors will be so notified.

How and When to Submit a Paper (http://www.hicss.org/#!call-for-papers/c1cd9 ): * Please follow Author Instructions ( http://www.hicss.org/#!author-instructions/c1dsb) for all details on submitting a paper to an upcoming HICSS Conference. * All papers must be submitted to a minitrack ( http://www.hicss.org/#!tracks-and-minitracks/c12zq). Minitracks are part of our 10 larger tracks. Make sure you understand the focus of a minitrack before submitting your paper to ensure you are submitting to the best possible fit for your research. * HICSS papers must contain original material. They may not be previously published, nor currently submitted elsewhere. * Abstracts are optional. You may contact the Minitrack Chair(s) or Track Chair for guidance or verification of content. If you are not sure of the appropriate Minitrack, submit a preliminary abstract to the Minitrack Chair(s) or Track Chair via email for determination. * Submit a paper to only one Minitrack ( https://precisionconference.com/~hicss/). Submissions to more than one minitrack may result in rejection by either minitrack without consultation with author. * Do not author or co-author more than 5 papers. Track Chairs must approve any names added after submission.
