>
> Description
>
> The non-profit sector represents a substantial part of the US economy (5%
> of
> the GDP). While the penetration of information systems and information
> technologies (IS/IT) among non-profit organizations has been increasing,
> studies have consistently shown that non-profits lag behind their
> counterparts in the private and public sectors with respect to IS/IT
> adoption and strategic use. This phenomenon has been coined the
> organizational digital divide - the inequalities between organizations in
> society that can strategically use IS/IT to advance their mission and those
> that cannot.
>
>
>
> The non-profit sector in the United States consists of over 1.5 million
> organizations. In response to the economic recession, these non-profits are
> increasingly being called upon to provide essential programs and services
> that the public and private sectors cannot or will not provide. However,
> the current operating environment of the non-profit sector has become
> increasingly more complex and challenging. While some non-profit
> organizations have benefited from new advances in IS/IT, many struggle to
> manage their technical infrastructures. These challenges bring great
> opportunities for IS research and practice.
>
>
>
> The purpose of this mini-track is to provide researchers with a forum for
> presentation and discussion of the key issues and challenges related to the
> adoption and strategic use of IS/IT by non-profit organizations. Authors
> are
> encouraged to submit papers on IS/IT issues within the non-profit context.

> Possible topics may include, but are not limited to:

> . Theoretical perspectives and frameworks describing the

>
> . Barriers to IS/IT diffusion and adoption among non-profit
> organizations.
>
> . IS/IT planning and management in non-profit organizations.
>
> . Design, implementation, and use of IS/IT to improve non-profit

>
> . Strategic uses of IS/IT among nonprofit organizations.
>
> . Alignment of IS/IT strategy and non-profit organization's social
> mission.
>
> . Measuring effectiveness of IS/IT use in nonprofit organizations.

> . Issues related to improving sustainable practices in the non-profit

>
> Track: Diffusion of Information Technology
>
> Minitrack title: Beyond Use: Examining the outcomes of System Use
>
> Description:
> IS literature has built a rich stream of research predicting system use in
> various contexts. An implicit assumption was that use would produce positive
> benefits either for the individual, team or organization. This explains why
> most research examining IT/IS adoption and diffusion had intention to use or
> use at the dependent variable. Researchers have less frequently examined use
> as the independent variable in the nomological network. As a result, our
> understanding of whether or not use yields actual benefits and what exactly
> are those benefits, are less understood.
>
> This mini-track aims to expand our knowledge of IT/IS adoption and
> diffusion by moving beyond a focus on use, to understanding broader
> outcomes. Submissions are expected to provide new insights into how system
> use impacts outcomes at the individual and team level. As such, research
> examining the interplay between team and individual analysis is invited. In
> addition, the mini track is open to examining the impacts of various types
> of systems.
>
> Topics of interest to this mini-track will include but are not limited to
> the following:
>
> ? The impacts of use on individual and team performance
> ? The impacts of use on turnover, job satisfaction and employer
> commitment
> ? The impacts of use on individual and team mental models
> ? The impacts of use on trust, identity, cohesion and social
> integration
> ? The impact of use on the development of social networks
> ? How individual and/or team system use evolves over time to impact
> various outcomes
> ? How team system use influences individual outcomes

> Submissions are invited for workshop proposals to be included in the BPM
> 2011 Workshop Program. Workshops are meant to facilitate the exchange of
> ideas and experiences between active researchers and stimulate discussions
> on new and emerging issues in line with the conference topics. Workshops may
> concentrate in-depth on research topics or may also be devoted to
> application and/or standardization issues.
>
> All workshop papers will be published by Springer as a post-workshop
> proceedings volume in their Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing
> (LNBIP) series. Hard copies of the proceedings will be shipped to all
> registered participants about four months after the workshops.

> In the last decade, the number and complexity of Web-based software systems
> and the amount of information they offer has been continuously growing. In
> the context of Software Engineering, design methods and methodologies were
> introduced to provide mechanisms to develop these complex Web applications
> and Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) in a systematic way. Most of these
> methodologies focus on implementation and neglect other tasks such as
> requirement analysis and quality management. Although the relevance of
> Requirements Engineering is well known these techniques should be studied
> more widely in the Web Engineering community due to the complexity of Web
> Engineering problems (such as the changing nature of the stakeholders or
> the
> diversity of Web-related requirements). On the other hand, Requirements
> Engineering is a complex activity whose success depends on stakeholder
> participation. Therefore, the techniques proposed in the Requirements
> Engineering field need a more participative environment to support
> effective
> collaboration among stakeholders. In this context, the Web (especially Web
> 2.0 applications), provide a convenient platform that supports active
> participation by stakeholders in the Requirements Engineering process.

> Recently, environmental issues have motivated both researchers and
> practitioners to identify solutions from Green IT and Green IS. Among
> practitioners, while Green IT has gained significant attention, Green IS has
> seen increasing importance. Even though Green IT covers both infrastructure
> and organizational aspects of environmental technology, Green IS
> incorporates a more general initiative by associating an integrated set of
> systems (including people, processes, software, and information
> technologies) to support individual, organizational, and societal goals.
> Surprisingly, while industries, corporations, and IS units have acknowledged
> the importance of environmental issues, the IS academy has provided limited
> contribution to burgeoning knowledge in Green IS. The critical role of both
> Greening IS and Greening IT and both Green IS and Green IT for goods and
> services manufacture is visible to consumers but is also embedded in the
> life cycles of materials, manufacturing systems, and public infrastructure.
> Information in general, and IS and IT systems in particular can play an
> important control role through support of environmental management systems,
> life cycle analysis, and design for the environment practices.
> Organizationally IS and IT managers and technologists' awareness of greening
> organizations is one of the potential starting points that requires
> investigation. The latest step is not only awareness and readiness, but how
> can organizations leverage their IS capacities to effectively address these
> issues from reactive risk management or cost averse perspectives, and also a
> longer term competitive stance and relationship. Inevitably, this special
> topic issue of the Green IS/IT the decision to complete environmental action
> will be strategic with fundamental changes across the organization and IS
> can play a central role in this effort.
