CALL FOR PAPERS: AGILE / LEAN AT HICSS

Agile and Lean: Organizations, Products and Development http://www.agileleanhiccs.org/ Submission deadline: June 15, 2017

Please consider submitting a paper (or forward to someone who might be interested) for the Agile and Lean: Organizations, Products and Development mini-track, to be held at HICSS-51 on January 3-6, 2018 on the Big Island of Hawaii.

We welcome papers from academics, practitioners and academic-practitioner collaborators.

We seek research papers, case studies, position papers, or other contributions that explore all forms of agile development (including Scrum, Kanban, Extreme Programming/XP) and lean process management (including Lean Startup, Customer Development). Further, we seek contributions on the wider application of agile and lean principles, including, but not limited to the contexts of DevOps, Agile content development, agile construction, and more.

Our mini-track will focus on questions such as:

- What guidance can we provide to create and sustain better agile and lean behaviors and more successful outcomes? - How can we incorporate other functions, such as architecture and production support, into agile and lean frameworks? - How can organizations and cultures restructure to support these philosophies? - Which metrics help enterprises, teams and individuals adapt and improve? - What are the measurable outcomes of using agile techniques? - What are the measurable differences in outcomes when using traditional vs agile techniques? - What are ways that we can create a repository of knowledge, experiences, cases, data, etc., that could be used by research and industry to leverage and expand our understanding of and practical skills in agile techniques?

CALL FOR PAPERS Relating to these questions, we invite early research results, case studies and position statements on topics including, but not limited to:

- Enterprise agile and using agile at scale (such as the scaled agile framework) - New tools to support agile and/or lean practices - Refinements of agile and/or lean practices - Comparing and/or integrating different agile techniques (such as scrum and kanban) - The use of agile beyond traditional software development projects (such as data science or information security) - Applying lean practices to information system development - Identifying and mitigating roadblocks to agile adoption - Agile in the classroom - Agile metrics and how to measure agile team performance

Paper submissions should be in English and not exceed 10 pages.

Accepted papers will be published / indexed as part of the HICSS conference proceedings.

The Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS) provides a great mix of academics, industrialists and consultants studying many applications and aspects of system science. Now in its 51st year, HICSS is one of the longest-standing continuously running scientific conferences. HICSS is an IEEE Computer Society sponsored conference. HICSS papers are in the top 2% of conference papers downloaded from IEEE.
