-------- Forwarded Message -------- Subject: [AISWorld] Call for Submissions for the Systems Analysis and Design (SAND) Track at AMCIS 2022 - Due March 1, 2022 Date: Fri, 4 Feb 2022 13:25:49 +0000 From: Beard, Jon W [ISBA] jwbeard@iastate.edu To: aisworld@lists.aisnet.org aisworld@lists.aisnet.org

We welcome your submissions to three (3) exciting mini-tracks focusing on different aspects of systems analysis and design - a core information systems area.

General SAND (Systems Analysis and Design) Track at AMCIS 2022 - 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 therefore is of central importance to the Information Systems discipline, including understanding how businesses can create value with new digital technologies.

Submission Deadlines:

* March 1, 2022, 5 PM Eastern Standard Time - Completed Research and ERF Submissions due * April 15, 2022, 5 PM Eastern Standard Time - Workshop, Panel, TREO, and PDS Submissions due

To submit your paper, please visit: https://amcis2022.aisconferences.org/

Track Chairs:

Roman Lukyanenko, HEC Montréal

Arturo Castellanos, College of William and Mary

Jon W. Beard, Iowa State University

Minitracks:

Contemporary Issues in DevOps and Agile Development (SIGSAND)

It is fair to say that agile methodologies - in some form or manner - have been widely accepted in industry. We are farther along in our understanding of various aspects of agile development, including but not limited to its adoption, adaptation, scalability, social aspects, project management, distributed development, and enterprise agility. However, the emergence of new technologies, the increase in regulatory requirements, and the enormous changes that have occurred in the development landscape present opportunities for new areas of research. For example, the advent of DevOps and its interplay with agile needs more empirical investigation. Likewise, agile methodologies appear to be a natural fit for AI/Business Analytics projects which needs further exploration. This mini-track provides a forum for researchers to address fundamental issues regarding DevOps and agile development practices as well as contemporary topics raised by its widespread acceptance and use. The Chairs for this minitrack are:

Innovations in SA&D Processes

The objective of this mini-track is to bring together work on various organizational processes during the typical development phases of systems and software. These include, but are not limited to, innovations in organizational processes, work process analysis, distributed teams, global aspects of team collaboration, the balance between process and agile approaches, and innovations in software development processes. Researchers can present the technical, empirical, cognitive, pedagogical, theoretical, and applied aspects of processes related to Systems Analysis and Design, highlighting the continuing fundamental position of systems analysis and design in the IS discipline. Papers may cover topics including exploration and exploitation in software development, issues in managing globally distributed projects, and improving project management practices to address success dimensions such as scope, schedule, costs, and quality as well as co-creation of value for the customer. The Chairs for this minitrack are:

Modeling Languages, Methodologies, Methods, Techniques, and Tools

This minitrack recognizes the important role modeling languages, methodologies, methods, and tools play in the field of Information Systems. This minitrack provides a forum for researchers, educators, and practitioners working in the areas of modeling language development, use, enhancement, and evaluation. The minitrack will consider all papers that are related to the theme and we are particularly interested in papers that address and demonstrate the role of conceptual modelling with emerging trends such as Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Analytics, Cybersecurity, and Cloud Computing. Papers that discuss the changing role of modelling and models, and the future directions of modelling and models are also welcome. The minitrack is open to empirical, conceptual, theoretical, and technical pieces, and is receptive to all research methods. The Chairs for this minitrack are:

Dominik Bork, dominik.bork@tuwien.ac.at<mailto:dominik.bork@tuwien.ac.atmailto:dominik.bork@tuwien.ac.at%3cmailto:dominik.bork@tuwien.ac.at>
