*/The Social Dimension of Information Systems: In Memoriam Prof. 
Alessandro D'Atri/*

With the untimely passing of Professor Alessandro D'Atri in April 2011, 
the information systems community lost an important figure. Professor 
D'Atri was a highly accomplished scholar, an innovative educator, and an 
inspirational leader.As a scholar, he made significant contributions to 
many diverse areas of information technology, ranging from computational 
complexity and graph algorithms, to database theory and database user 
interfaces, to virtual enterprises, business organization and 
e-commerce.As a career educator, Professor D'Atri held teaching 
positions at half a dozen universities, where he taught a great variety 
of courses to students at all levels, and has nurtured an impressive 
number of young scholars.Among his many accomplishments as a leader, 
Professor D'Atri founded the enterprising CeRSI Research Centre for 
Information Systems Research in LUISS University in Rome, he was the 
founder of ItAIS, the Italian Chapter of the International Association 
for Information Systems, and he served as a permanent consultant to the 
Italian Ministry of Research and Universities.

Professor D'Atri was also a member of the Editorial Board of the 
/Journal of Information, Communication and Ethics in Society,/ and, in
