Dear Friends and Colleagues,

(with apologies for cross-postings)

In view of several requests, we extended the deadline to 30 January 2009.

Here is the URL for submission: http://desrist2009.ist.psu.edu/submit.html

This year, the conference is being done "in cooperation with ACM." Accepted papers will, therefore, be available in ACM Digital Library. In addition, extended versions of select papers will be invited to Journal of the AIS.

4th Design Science Research in Information Systems and Technologies (DESRIST) 2009 conference In-Cooperation with ACM, SIGCHI, SIGMIS, SIGCAS, and SIGDA.

Location: Philadelphia, PA, USA Date: May 7-8, 2009

Theme: Diversity in Design Science

The conference promises to be an exciting place to meet, connect with new and old colleagues, and a source of new ideas. In addition to multiple panels, of which one will present an industry-focused view of enterprise architectures, there are multiple keynote speakers. They include:

* Carliss Baldwin, Harvard Business School (Design Rules) * John Gero, George Mason University (Design Cognition) * Jay Kesan, University of Illinois (Intellectual Property in Design)

See more information here: http://desrist2009.ist.psu.edu/learn_d.html

The call for papers describes the conference in this manner:

The Fourth DESRIST Conference, in-cooperation with ACM, is a meeting place that will bring together researchers and practitioners engaged in Design Science research in the broadest sense. Questions and concerns in Design Science, therefore, relate to choosing domains in which individuals and teams would intervene, the context in which these interventions would take place, and the consequences of these interventions. We invite contributions (manuscripts, demos and panels) that describe your work in the area of Design Science research. These include but are not limited to:

* Science of Design and Design Theory * Philosophical foundations of Design Science * Evaluation of Design Science Research * Infrastructure Design * Design Processes * Representation for Design * Design Evolution * Organizational Design * Design for Innovation * Design Economics * Modularity and Rules in Design * Architectures for Design * Meta-Design Control in Design * Design of Software-Intensive Systems

The domains include (but are not limited to): Software, Services, Database, Business Processes, Information Systems, User Interfaces, Knowledge Discovery and Management, Data Mining,Medical, Health and Bio-Informatics, Social and Virtual Collaboration, Networking and Multimedia Systems, Grid and Peer-to-Peer Computing, and Pervasive Computing.

***** Important Dates ******** Submission: January 30, 2009 Acceptance: March 10, 2009 Camera Ready Submission: April 10, 2009 Early Registration Closes: April 10, 2009 Conference Dates: May 7-8, 2009 Doctoral Consortium: May 6, 2009

Awards: * Herbert A Simon Award for the best Design Science paper * Vinton G. Cerf Award for the best Student Authored paper (sole or lead author with student standing)

We look forward to your research contributions.

Sandeep Purao, Program Chair
