>> The US National Science Foundation has announced a new program called
>> Secure and Trustworthy Cyberspace (SaTC). The program is open to
>> receiving grant proposals and has a special interest in Social,
>> Behavioral, and Economic sciences (SBE) science research.
>>
>> The program is managed by three Directorates at the NSF, the Social,
>> Behavioral, and Economic sciences (SBE), Computer and Information Science
>> and Engineering (CISE), and the Office of Cyberinfrastructure (OCI).
>> Computer science and applied SBE science work should be submitted to
>> CISE. Proposals that facilitate a transition from research to practice
>> should be submitted to OCI. Proposals which both contribute to
>> cybersecurity and advance basic SBE science research should be submitted
>> to SBE. Proposals can also be submitted to multiple Directorates and
>> co-reviewed if appropriate.
>>
>> Successful SBE submissions will involve contributions to rather than
>> applications of the SBE sciences. SBE-submitted SaTC proposals should
>> help develop new knowledge or methods that contribute to the SBE
>> sciences, while helping to develop a secure and trustworthy cyberspace.
>> In addition, SBE / SaTC is interested in proposals for workshops and
>> other intellectual engagements that may advance SBE science efforts in
>> the cybersecurity field.
>>
>> You can learn more about the SaTC program via our solicitation:
>>
>> http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2012/nsf12503/nsf12503.htm
>>
>> We are holding a Webinar this Friday, Dec. 2, 1pm EST, to further
>> describe the program and answer questions about it. If you are
>> interested, please register, ideally by end-of-day Dec. 1, at the

>
> Minitrack: Business Models for the Digital Economy
> (http://www.amcis-businessmodels.hdzimmermann.net/ )
>
> DESCRIPTION
>
> This minitrack serves as a forum for the presentation and discussion of
> new and innovative approaches of business models beyond e-commerce for
> coping with the challenges of the digital economy. We consider an economy
> based on the digitization of information and the respective information
> and communication infrastructure as digital economy. This new type of
> economy implies not only technological, but also and especially structural
> and process-related challenges and potential. The way in which economic
> value is created will change fundamentally in the digital economy and thus
> transform the structure of economies and societies.
>
> This evolution will radically alter processes and structures within and
> between industries leading to the digital economy. All of these
> developments characterize the emerging digital economy and cause new
> challenges businesses have to cope with. This clearly will have a major
> impact on how business models have to be designed. Therefore this
> minitrack addresses all topics concerned with the analysis, design,
> development, implementation, and control of future business models for the
> creation of economic value in the digital economy from a communication,
> organizational, business, economic, and managerial perspective applying a
> theoretical, conceptual, or practical approach.
>
>
> SUGGESTED TOPICS
>
> Challenges and foundations of the digital economy
> Analytical and architectural frameworks for new business models
> Design approaches/methods for new business models
> Models and modeling techniques/approaches for new business models
> Industry perspectives on business models
> Challenges of converging industries:
> Financial industry (e.g., emerging intermediaries, private/retail
> banking, insurance)
> Media industry (e.g., publishing, music business)
> Telecommunications (e.g., mobile network operators)
> A business model perspective on
> Mobile Business
> ?Ubiquitous Commerce?
> ?Collaborative Commerce?
> Social Commerce
> Social Media and Social Networks based business models
> Trust and new business models.
>
> IMPORTANT DATES

> Track: Management of IT Outsourcing Projects in a Global Economy
> Mini-track: IT Project Management
> While academics and practitioners alike suggest that relationship
> management is a crucial factor in the overall success or failure of an IT
> outsourcing project, managing outsourcing relationship becomes a daunting
> task as the traditional IT outsourcing projects (application development,
> database development, etc.) has developed into a highly specialized
> marketplace of IT-enabled service projects such as business process
> outsourcing (BPO), knowledge process outsourcing (KPO), etc. over the last
> decade. The phenomenon of significant, sustained trend of IT project
> globalization, has led to the fact that researchers in many disciplines
> are reframing and refocusing their efforts around project management that
> explore whether findings in one context hold true in another. Along this
> line, a recent report by Gartner points out that many firms have failed to
> build a skills base to meet the challenge of managing their new
> outsourcing environment and are therefore at risk of a low return on
> service value. Therefore, this mini?track invites research articles that
> focus on social, managerial and knowledge-related topics in IS
> outsourcing/offshoring project management, which we believe lead to a
> pathway to the success of IT project. With papers that are both conceptual
> and empirically based, we seek to contribute to theory building by both
> reapplying existing frameworks and developing new constructs that help
> explaining the project t management view of IT outsourcing relationship in
> general, and offshoring arrangements in particular.
>
>
>
> Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
>
> ? IT projects management in IT outsourcing/offshoring, considering
> the relationships between organizational characteristics
>
> * Coordination of IT projects in outsourcing/offshoring arrangement
>
> ? Conflict resolution in IT outsourcing/offshoring projects
>
> ? Contractual management in IT outsourcing/offshoring projects

> * Knowledge flow management in IT outsourcing/offshoring projects
>
> ? Knowledge management, codification processes and their impact on
> the performance of outsourced IT projects
>
> * Cultural issues in IS outsourcing/offshoring projects
>
> ? IT projects management in emerging outsourcing arrangements such
> as crowed sourcing
>
> ? IT outsourcing project life cycle
>
> ? Retained management capabilities from a social and knowledge

> As governments seek to remodel and restyle their services, e-Government
> continues to stir interest and attention. New dynamic issues such as
> e-democracy, e-citizenship, interoperability, e-identity and e-voting have
> become core elements in the development of public sector delivery. The
> multi-tier nature of e-Government, relevant at local, regional, and
> central government but also at the supranational level such as the
> European Union, makes it of importance to academics and practitioners
> alike. Vital questions are posed which link technological development and
> a streamlining of government services to more social based values of
> inclusion, accessibility and power relationship ratios.
>
>
>
> E-Government encompasses more than just technology - it challenges the way
> in which public sector service providers and citizens interact. Democratic
> renewal, the transformation of service delivery, community leadership and
> citizenship integration are all key elements of this fascinating subject.
> e-Government is tightly related to legal, economical and organisational
> fields and as such holds a strong interdisciplinary status. You can see a
> full list of the conference and journal accreditations by clicking the
> star in the right hand side bar.
>
>
>
> Academic research, case studies and work-in-progress/posters are welcomed
> approaches. PhD Research, proposals for roundtable discussions or
> knowledge caf?s, non-academic contributions and product demonstrations
> based on the main themes are also invited. Please feel free to circulate
> this message to any colleagues or contacts you think may be interested.
>
>
>
> Papers presented at the conference will be published in the conference
> proceedings, subject to author registration and payment. The proceedings
> have an ISBN and ECEG proceedings are listed and/or rated by multiple
> organisations worldwide. Selected papers presented at the Conference will
> be considered for publication in a special issue of the Electronic Journal
> of e-Government.

> This is a first call for papers for the 7th European Conference on
> Innovation and Entrepreneurship (ECIE-2012) being held at Escola Superior
> de Gest?o e Tecnologia, Instituto Polit?cnico de Santar?m, Portugal on the
> 20-21 September 2012.

>
> Innovation and entrepreneurship are tightly coupled concepts. Innovation
> involves designing new ways of conceptualising, developing and producing a
> range of goods and services which society requires. Although inventing new
> things may be seen as part of innovation, innovation does not exclusively
> rely on new discoveries. Rather it can stem from simply seeing new ways of
> satisfying demand. Thus innovation is not a synonym for invention and
> almost anyone can come up with new innovations.
>
>
>
> Entrepreneurship adds a further dimension to how new ideas are converted
> into goods and services. Entrepreneurship is sometimes said to be a
> mindset required to convert innovation into a real business situation
> which will deliver benefits to the stakeholders. Entrepreneurship is
> always driven by an individual or a small group of individuals who are
> referred to as entrepreneurs and who are sometimes colloquially referred
> to as the 'movers and shakers' in our society. Thus the entrepreneur
> configures the various factors of products to that they become a viable
> proposition.
>
>
>
> Publication opportunity:

>
>
> Papers accepted for the conference will be published in the conference
> proceedings, subject to author registration and payment. Selected papers
> will also be considered for a special issue of the International Journal
> of Innovation and Regional Development, journals published by
> Inderscience.
>
>
>
> The advisory group for the conference invites submissions of both academic
> and practitioner papers on a wide range of topics and a wide range of
> scholarly approaches including theoretical and empirical papers employing
> qualitative, quantitative and critical methods. Academic research, case
> studies and work-in-progress/posters are welcomed approaches. PhD
> Research, proposals for roundtable discussions non-academic contributions
> and product demonstrations based on the main themes are also invited.

> The world economy in which we are living poses challenges that lead to a

> CALL FOR PAPERS
>
> 18th Americas Conference on Information Systems
> Seattle, Washington, August 9-12, 2012
>
> Track: Social Issues and Social Inclusion
> Minitrack: The Dark Side of Social Networking -- Social and Ethical Issues
>
>
> DESCRIPTION
>
> Online social networks are web-based services, platforms, or sites
> that *?*allow
> individuals to (1) construct a public or semi-public profile within a
> bounded system, (2) articulate a list of other users within whom they
> share
> a connection, and (3) view and traverse their list of connections and
> those
> made by others within their system*? *(Boyd and Ellison, 2008). By
> facilitating the establishment and maintenance of social relations as well
> as the sharing of interests and activities within individual networks,
> social networking sites (such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, MySpace,
> YouTube, and more recently Google+) have become increasingly integrated in
> our modern culture, changing the way we work, study, play and socialize,
> and how we spend time and money.
>
> Notwithstanding the many personal, educational, and work benefits offered
> by online social networks, their use raises a variety of social and
> ethical
> concerns (e.g., privacy and security threats, cyber-bullying, addiction,
> deception, censorship and surveillance). The objective of this mini-track
> is to develop theoretical insight and understanding on topics and issues
> that address the *troubling* or *dark* side of online social networks. We
> welcome conceptual, theoretical, and empirical papers that enrich our
> understanding of the social and ethical issues of online social networks.
>
>
>
> Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
>
> -- Privacy risks
>
> -- Security vulnerabilities
>
> -- Cyber-bullying and cyber-stalking
>
> -- Social network addiction
>
> -- Risk to child safety
>
> -- Risk to reputation and confidentiality
>
> -- Violations of intellectual property right
>
> -- Ethical issues in social network analysis and mining
>
> -- Risk of identity theft
>
> -- Deception on social networks
>
> -- Reduction in productivity and disruption to working environment
>
> -- Negative impact of social networking on relationships (e.g., social
> isolation and distraction from quality relationships)
>
> -- Negative health consequences (e.g., personality and brain disorder)
> associated with the use of social networking sites
>
> -- Social network surveillance
>
> -- Social network censorship
>

> Title :
> Dynamic Software Product Lines based on Service-Oriented Architectures
>
> Description:
> Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA) and Software Product Lines (SPL)
> are approaches to software development that both encourage reuse of
> existing assets and capabilities rather than repeatedly redeveloping
> them for new systems. These two approaches tend to be used in the
> context of pervasive applications. The intent is that organisations can
> capitalise on reuse to achieve desired benefits such as productivity
> gains, decreased development costs, improved time to market, and higher
> reliability. However, when SOA are supposed to enable assembly,
> orchestration and maintenance of enterprise solutions to quickly react
> to changing business requirements, SPLs aim at systematically capturing
> and exploiting commonality among a set of related systems while managing
> variations for specific customers or market segments. The ever growing
> use of Model Driven Engineering (MDE) now makes it possible to handle
> such large and complex software constructions at a higher level of
> abstraction, so that large scale software manipulations, such as product
> derivations or system configurations can be automatically generated from
> high level models. To cope with the constantly evolving environment
> inherent to pervasive applications, these models will be kept at runtime
> to support the continuous adaptation process. This work will investigate
> innovative solutions to bridge the gap between SOA and SPL through the
> use of MDE to produce self-adaptive pervasive applications.
>
> Working Environment :
> The postdoc candidate will work at INRIA in the TRISKELL team. INRIA is
> the French national institute for research in computer science. There
> are 8 INRIA research centres located throughout France, hosting more

> Fraud has been an important topic affecting businesses and consequently,
> affecting business related research areas. Increased interest is shown by
> academics prompted by the importance given by governments, media, and
> industry. The recent financial crisis caused by corporate frauds show the
> immense concern of this topic by the general public around the globe.

> Fraud is an intentional deception made for personal gain or to damage
> another individual. It comes in different forms, including but not limited
> to intentional information security breaches, credit card fraud, financial
> fraud, tax fraud, health fraud, and insurance fraud etc., all with
> fraudulent purpose. Such frauds have cost the society enormous amount of
> fund during the past decades.
>
> As organizations are increasingly dependent on technological means to
> carry out their routine yet crucial communications and to seek
> sustainability, information security issues in terms of confidentiality,
> integrity, and accessibility has becoming crucially important. The
> increasing number of information security breaches that organizations have
> encountered mirrors the urgency of further investigation on information
> systems security from a combination of technological and behavioral
> aspects. Likewise, from an accounting perspective, financial reports
> intentional misstatement and failed to reveal correct financial
> information call for systematic investigation with new framework and
> techniques to take into account ecological and social performance in
> addition to financial performance.
>
> The topic of information fraud and investigation is multidisciplinary in
> nature, and its complexity calls for a wide variety of research
> approaches, such as action research, case studies, surveys, model
> development etc.
>
> This special issue intends to deal with the state-of-the-art information

> CONFERENCE THEME
>
> The special theme of the 24th edition of CAiSE is Information Services.
> The notion of service plays a more and more extensive role in the
> enterprise development. Indeed, most of the enterprise management and
> manufacture is based on the exchange of services: services to the
> customers and/or citizens, services to support the inter-organisational
> collaboration as well as services to accomplish intra-organisational
> activities. Many organizations and companies are sharing services with
> others, interfacing services from others, or outsourcing their ICT
> resources to various locations worldwide aided by the internet. For all
> of them, the concept of service becomes a cornerstone of their processes
> of collaboration, innovation and value creation. In this context, the
> information systems (IS) engineering is moving towards the adoption of
> service-driven architectures where intra- and inter-organisational
> business activities are carried out with the help of information
> services. Information services are considered as a new means to deal
> with the complexity, modularity and interoperability of the constantly
> growing IS. Design and development of information services and
> information service-driven architectures become key to the success of
> organisations and their business. Therefore, the service-driven IS
> domain becomes a new complex domain, which requires new
> interdisciplinary approaches and new transdisciplinary ways of thinking.
>
> CAiSE?12 aims to bring together researchers and practitioners in the
> field of information systems engineering and invites papers that address
> all these challenges. The topics of interests include, but are not
> restricted to:
>
> Methodologies and Approaches for IS Engineering:
> - Enterprise architecture and enterprise modelling
> - Service science
> - Requirements engineering
> - Business process modelling and management
> - Model, component, and software reuse
> - IS reengineering
> - Adaptive IS engineering approaches
> - Knowledge patterns and ontologies for IS engineering
> - IS engineering approaches for adaptive and flexible information systems
> - IS in networked & virtual organizations
> - Method engineering
> - Knowledge, information, and data quality
> - Quality of models and of modelling languages
>
> Innovative platforms, architectures and technologies for IS engineering:
> - Service-oriented architecture
> - Model-driven architecture
> - Component based development
> - Agent architecture
> - Distributed, mobile, and open architecture
> - Innovative database technology
> - Semantic web
> - IS and ubiquitous technologies
> - Adaptive and context-aware IS
>
> Engineering of specific kinds of IS:
> - eGovernment
> - Enterprise applications (ERP, CRM)
> - Data warehousing and business intelligence
> - Workflow systems
> - Knowledge management systems
> - Content management systems
> - Sustainability-aware IS
>
> **********************************************************************
> AUTHOR GUIDELINES
>
> We invite four types of original and scientific papers:
>
> - Formal and/or technical papers describe original solutions
> (theoretical, methodological or conceptual) in the field of IS
> engineering. A technical paper should clearly describe the situation or
> problem tackled, the relevant state of the art, the position or solution
> suggested and the potential - or, even better, the evaluated - benefits
> of the contribution.
>
> - Empirical evaluation papers evaluate existing problem situations or
> validate proposed solutions with scientific means, i.e. by empirical
> studies, experiments, case studies, simulations, formal analyses,
> mathematical proofs, etc. Scientific reflection on problems and
> practices in industry also falls into this category. The topic of the
> evaluation presented in the paper as well as its causal or logical
> properties must be clearly stated. The research method must be sound and
> appropriate.
>
> - Experience papers present problems or challenges encountered in
> practice, relate success and failure stories, or report on industrial
> practice. The focus is on 'what' and on lessons learned, not on an
> in-depth analysis of 'why'. The practice must be clearly described and
> its context must be given. Readers should be able to draw conclusions
> for their own practice.
>
> - Exploratory Papers can describe completely new research positions or
> approaches, in order to face to a generic situation arising because of
> new ICT tools or new kinds of activities or new IS challenges. They must
> describe precisely the situation and demonstrate how current methods,
> tools, ways of reasoning, or meta-models are inadequate. They must
> rigorously present their approach and demonstrate its pertinence and
> correctness to addressing the identified situation.
>
> **********************************************************************
> SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION
>
> Papers should be submitted in PDF format. The results described must be
> unpublished and must not be under review elsewhere. Submissions must
> conform to Springer's LNCS format and should not exceed 15 pages,
> including all text, figures, references and appendices. Submissions not
> conforming to the LNCS format, exceeding 15 pages, or being obviously
> out of the scope of the conference, will be rejected without review.
> Information about the Springer LNCS format can be found at
> http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html.Three to five keywords
> characterising the paper should be indicated at the end of the abstract.
> The type of paper (technical/empirical evaluation/experience/exploratory
> paper) should be indicated in the submission.
> Accepted papers will be presented at CAiSE'12 and published in the
> conference proceedings, which are published in the Springer Lecture
> Notes in Computer Science (LNCS).

> Special Issue on Mobile Information Systems and Mobility
>
> In 2006, an EJIS special issue on mobile user behaviour published seven
> papers that explored
> the ways in which ?increased mobility of the users violates some of the
> assumptions traditionally
> associated with the use of IS? (van der Heijden & Junglas, 2006, p. 249).
> In the five years since
> that special issue was published, mobile devices have become much more
> powerful, and users
> have become more demanding of mobile access to information systems. Many
> individuals now
> carry powerful computing devices with them at all times, blurring the
> boundaries between
> personal and organizational systems and uses. Individuals are becoming
> ?experiential?
> computing users, with personal computing devices embedded in their
> everyday activities.
>
> The increased power and prevalence of mobile devices presents an
> opportunity, if not an
> obligation, for information systems researchers to revisit fundamental
> assumptions embedded in
> our theories. What changes when we assume that mobile access is a key
> component of
> information systems and that mobility is a key expectation of users?
> Should IS theories that
> were developed to investigate the deployment of fixed systems in bounded
> environments
> controlled by organizations be revisited in the context of mobility?
>
> We invite theoretical and empirical papers that explore the meanings and
> implications of
> mobility for information systems research and researchers. We encourage
> broad definitions of
> mobility and information systems, in recognition that mobility can
> dissolve organizational
> boundaries, reshape information systems, and change the nature of use and
> users. Potential
> topics include, but are not limited to:
>
> ? Design of mobile information systems environments
> ? Management challenges in a mobile information systems environment
> ? Mobile content and services development, the rise of the mobile ?app?
> and cloud computing
> ? Perspectives on the ?always on, always connected? mobile society, the
> mobile device as instrument of societal change
> ? Understanding the mobile content consumer, opportunities and threats for
> content providers
> ? Theorising the mobile ICT artefact
> ? New affordances of mobility
> ? Understanding the materiality of mobility, exploring the mobile artifact
> ? New actors in a mobile information systems environment, including
> machine to machine interaction
> ? Mobility in the workforce, including overlapping contexts of mobile
> technology use (work, leisure, social), the business value of mobility,
> and mobility considerations in ICT strategy
> ? The role of digital infrastructures in enabling mobility

> Mini-track: Information Technology (IT)-enabled Supply Chain Management:
> Co-Creating and Capturing Business Value from IT
>
>
> The preoccupation with supply chain management (SCM) has been present over
> the last few decades. Numerous studies have pointed to the need to
> increase the level of integration of inter- and intra-organizational
> processes and information systems in order to achieve a greater level of
> seamlessness and reduce duplication efforts and corresponding
> inefficiencies. The advent of new concepts (e.g., social media, Web 2.0,
> green supply chain) and technologies (e.g., Radio Frequency Identification
> (RFID), Bluetooth, Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) II) should
> accelerate this trend. For example, the combination of intelligent
> products and intelligent services enabled by RFID with the existing ICTs
> in supply chains should play a facilitating role ? thus allowing greater
> visibility of products and services to supply chain members ?, and in
> parallel offer more opportunities for quick and efficient supply chain
> activities. Supply chain members should therefore face greater strain as
> they will be expected to manage not only their own activities in relation
> to those products and services, but also the integration of upstream and
> downstream core business processes and inter- and intra-organizational
> information systems. In this context, collaboration between the supply
> chain stakeholders to co-create and capture value from ITs for their
> economic growth sustainability becomes not only a prerequisite, but also a
> major challenge. This mini-track aims to look at how to co-create and
> capture business value from new concepts (e.g., social media, Web 2.0,
> green supply chain) and technologies (e.g., RFID technology, Bluetooth,
> ERPII) both at the firm and supply chain levels.
>
> Suggested topics, but are not limited to:
>
> ? Business process modeling & simulation, business process redesign from
> new concepts (e.g., social media, Web 2.0, green supply chain) and
> technologies (e.g., RFID , Bluetooth, ERPII) at the firm and supply chain
> levels
> ? Case studies on the implementation of new concepts (e.g., social media,
> Web 2.0, green supply chain) and technologies (e.g., RFID technology,
> Bluetooth, ERPII) for business value co-creation at the firm and supply
> chain levels
> ? Enabling innovative electronic business models using new concepts (e.g.,
> social media, Web 2.0, green supply chain) and technologies (e.g., RFID
> technology, Bluetooth, ERPII) in various sectors (e.g., healthcare,
> retail, manufacturing)
> ? IT-enabled business analytics at the firm and supply chain levels
> ? Modeling and simulation of financial, managerial, leadership, and human
> resources required for projects of new concepts (e.g., social media, Web
> 2.0, green supply chain) and technologies (e.g., RFID technology,
> Bluetooth, ERPII)
> ? Modeling and simulation of the business value of new concepts (e.g.,
> social media, Web 2.0) and technologies (e.g., RFID technology, Bluetooth,
> ERPII) on quality management
> ? Modeling and simulation of the costs and risks associated with the
