> DESCRIPTION
> 
> The three mobile service and business mini-tracks cover a wide perspective
> on mobile information systems research and practice. The mini-tracks cover
> different aspects of design,
> realization and perception of mobile value services. We focus on business
> aspects, such as business models, business impacts of mobile information
> systems and regulatory issues on the one hand as well as more technology
> and design oriented aspects on the other hand. Mobile service development
> is a third, important area.
> 
> As HICSS is addressing leading edge developments, we especially encourage
> submissions on new subareas such as:
> adaptability and adaptivity of mobile services, mobile cloud services, and
> privacy and security concepts. For the business oriented mini-track
> submissions on business models for the mobile value chain, user perception
> studies going beyond traditional TAM or contributions for special
> application areas such as mobile wellness, mobile participation or mobile
> services for the poor and underserved are invited. Finally, the mini-track
> wants to extend to the emerging area of mobile consumer services and
> applications.
> 
> We seek research papers, case studies, and practitioner reports related to
> business aspects of different stakeholders (e.g. device manufacturers,
> service providers, system and application
> developers and the operators) in mobile business. Of special interest are
> conceptual and empirical papers analyzing these business aspects,
> including product development, marketing, distribution and services as
> well as revenue logics and regulatory issues, of different players or
> networks. Also of interest are papers identifying the key factors and
> variables of the different business models as well as limitations in
> implementing them. The mini-track also provides a venue to present and
> debate theory-based solutions for problems that industry is currently
> facing in the field of mobile consumers services. Such applications will
> contribute to the advancement of user-inspired and consumer centric
> information systems design within this paradigm. We welcome studies with
> either qualitative or quantitative research methods as well as design
> research.
