HICSS-46 TRACK: DECISION ANALYTICS, MOBILE SERVICES AND SERVICE SCIENCE

Minitrack: Open Data Services

 

"Across time, the world has gone through many revolutions, but the
information revolution fueled by open data and network effects is the
largest shift in power. This fundamental shift in power from 'the high
priests' to the people will give birth to new industries, topple governments
and transform the world as we know it."

- Mr. Vivek Kundra, HICSS-45 Keynote Speaker

 

Opening of government and private data will transform the way we produce,
aggregate and consume data in ways yet unimaginable. As the available data
stack grows, we can see the proliferation of innovative new services on many
areas (e.g. traffic, news etc.) based on two key trends: the opening of the
vast data resources collected by authorities and different governmental
units, and the increasing availability of new open sensor data (for example,
from mobile devices).

 

Until recently, this movement has been the domain of computer science and
key issues have focused on technical availability and data format standards
that enable linking the data. Now, we are moving into an era of consuming
that data that is creating novel opportunities and challenges for the
creation of new services. This calls for research from various disciplines,
including at least information systems science, service science, and
marketing to better understand these opportunities and challenges.

 

We especially encourage submissions of papers describing innovative services
created by employing open data. We seek research papers, case studies, and
practitioner reports related to the publication of the open data sets
followed by new service development and their implications. Of special
interest are novel applications of available open data in various domains,
such as, preventive healthcare, traffic, media, and travel, to name a few.
Furthermore, we are interested in "hybrid models" and aggregation usage of
both open and proprietary data sets in unison to develop new services.

 

We welcome studies employing either qualitative or quantitative research
methods, as well as design research. 

 

Relevant topics for this minitrack include (but are not limited to):

. Services consuming open data

. Location and sensor data based services

. Peer production of data

. Privacy issues related to open data and open data services

. Aggregation of open and proprietary data

. Developer community-driven open data service development

. Business value of open data services

. Business model destruction/creation caused by open data

. Open data service ecosystems

. Novel approaches to development of open data applications
