[Dan Kim]

*POST- ICIS 2011    *

*LG CNS/KrAIS WORKSHOP ON *

*E-Collaboration through Information Communication Technologies*

**

*Shanghai, China - December 7, 2011* **

With the advancement of information and communication technologies, there
have been massive changes in the ways that people are collaborating. This
key trend of collaboration can trace its roots to the increasing usage of
e-collaboration through information and communication technologies.
****

In conjunction with the 2011 International Conference of Information Systems
(ICIS), Korean Association for Information Systems (KrAIS) will hold its
second Post-ICIS LG CNS/KrAIS Research Workshop immediately after the
conference in Shanghai, China. We cordially invite you to submit your paper
to the workshop. We are particularly interested in original research work on
a broad range of topics on e-collaboration through information and
communication
technologies. However, we welcome papers on any topics related to
information systems as the Workshop is not restricted to any specific topics
.  **

We solicit original research and technical papers not published nor
submitted elsewhere. Doctoral students and junior faculty members are
especially encouraged to submit their research. Student papers will be given
special consideration. Selected high quality papers from the workshop
proceedings will be invited for a possible fast-track publication in the
KMIS’ flagship journal, Asia Pacific Journal of Information Systems (APJIS).
****

*Scholarship for Students:*

Through the generous financial support by LG CNS, the KrAIS will award
scholarship (US$500 each) to four students. The program co-chairs will
select four student papers based on reviewers’ comment and recommendation.
Special considerations will be given to those who are the sole or lead
author of the paper. **

*Background:*

As a chapter of the Association for Information Systems (AIS) serving AIS
members with Korean heritage, Korean Association for Information Systems
(KrAIS) aims to promote the scholarship by its members. Any Korean scholars
and professionals - both domestic and abroad - who are interested in the
development, management, and use of information and communications
technology are encouraged to participate.  **

The objective of the KrAIS Research Workshop is to provide a forum where its
members can exchange ideas and information and promote possible
collaboration among its members. In particular, the Workshop will focus on
helping graduate students and junior faculty improve their research and
develop scholarship through close interactions with peers and senior
faculty. The workshop will help graduate students and junior faculty publish
their research in top-tier scholarly journals and effectively move their
careers forward. ****

Another important objective of the Workshop is to improve the reputation and
the impact factor of the KMIS’ flagship journal, Asia Pacific Journal of
Information Systems (APJIS) through citations and publications. ****

*Important Dates:*

Submission Deadline: September 14, 2011****

Notification of Acceptance: October 31, 2011****

 **

*Submission:*

Authors are encouraged to submit either complete research or
research-in-progress paper complying with ICIS 2011 formatting requirements
(http://icis2011.aisnet.org/template_submissions2011.doc). All submissions
must be either in English or in Korean. If you want to submit paper in
Korean, please submit a two-page extended abstract in English as well.  **

Authors who are interested in participating in the workshop need to submit
paper by September 14, 2011 to Dan J. Kim (*danjongkim at gmail.com*) and Gee-Woo
Bock (gwbock at skku.edu). Submissions will undergo a blind review process. All
authors should agree to provide timely reviews of at most two other
submissions, if requested.  **

*Format of Workshop:*

In order to facilitate in-depth discussion and exchange of ideas, the
Workshop will feature roundtable sessions where five to six authors briefly
present their research for about 10 minutes each, followed by questions and
discussions. Tables will be organized based on research interests and will
be led by two senior scholars who will serve as mentors. All participants
are expected to have read all the papers for the table prior to the workshop
so that the discussion will focus on how to improve the paper. All
participants may choose to present or discuss in Korean or English as most
KrAIS members are bilingual. However, separate tables will be assigned to
the members who can speak only English. **

*Time and Venue:*

The Workshop will be held from 12:30 pm to 5 pm on December 7, 2011 in the
ICIS conference hotel. Immediately following the Workshop, the KrAIS
business meeting and dinner will be held from 6 to 8 pm. We ask current and
future KrAIS members stay an extra day to support the new initiative by
KrAIS. **

*Registration:*

The LG CNS/KrAIS Research Workshop has been registered as an official
ancillary meeting and will appear in the official ICIS registration system.
KrAIS faculty members can register for the KrAIS Workshop when they register
for ICIS 2010. The registration fee for the Workshop is $40 for early bird,
$50 for regular, and $60 for on-site registration. Students are free of
charge. The income from the registration fee will be used to further promote
KrAIS programs and activities.
