CALL FOR PAPERS | AMCIS 2017, Boston, August 10-12, 2017 | https://amcis2017.aisnet.org/

*Social Technical and Social Inclusion Issues (SIGSI)*

*Mini-Track: The Embedded Digital Environment: Individual and the New Socio-Technical Ecosystems*

We warmly invite your submissions to the Mini-track of “*The Embedded Digital Environment: Individual and the New Socio-Technical Ecosystems*” within Social Technical and Social Inclusion Issues (SIGSI) Track. This mini-track welcomes complete research papers (conceptual, theoretical, and empirical), case studies, research-in-progress, and best practices.

*Mini-track Description*

In today’s digital world, facilitated by innovative and mobile platforms, individuals are faced with a more dynamic and complex environment when interacting with sociotechnical systems. It is through these interactions that an ecosystem is created where individuals and various sociotechnical systems they are connecting to are symbiotically influenced by one another. Such ecosystem imposes changes on the sociotechnical systems all the while it is gradually changing people’s daily life as well as whole societies. As such, people are living in an embedded digital environment, which dramatically impacts their individual capabilities offered by customizability of the systems they use. Therefore, the study of social technical and social inclusion issues cannot be fully understood without a thorough examination of the dynamics of the interdependent interaction between individual and the system. This mini-track provides a forum for presenting research in this new and exciting area of social technical environment.

*Potential Topics*

Possible topics thus include but are not limited to:

- Digital Individual Systems - Digital Individual Systems in Workplace - Individual and Sharing Economy - Individual and Crowdsourcing - Individual Behaviors (e.g. decision-making) in the new Socio-technical Ecosystems - Individual and User Capability in the new Socio-technical Ecosystems - Individual and Task Performance in the new Socio-Technical system - Individual and IT diffusion and adoption in the new Socio-Technical system - Theories and relevant research frameworks for exploring individual usage of IT

*Important Dates*

January 9, 2017: Manuscript submissions for AMCIS 2017 begin

March 1, 2017: Manuscript submissions for AMCIS 2017 closing

April 17, 2017: Authors notified about the disposition of their papers
