CALL FOR PAPERS: Minitrack on Innovation, Design, and Analytics Supported Development of ICT Enabled Services

(in Decision Analytics, Mobile Technologies and Service Sciences track)

The purpose of the minitrack is to draw researchers' attention to Innovation, Design, and Analytics Supported Development of ICT Enabled Services for Consumers and Enterprises. It provides a discussion forum for researchers interested in fostering a service-based approach to these areas as well as an opportunity to present and debate design and theory-based solutions to the problems facing industry in the field of ICT enabled services. In a broad sense, ICT enabled services can be defined as [1] : "..systems that enable value co-creation through the development and implementation of information and communication technology enabled processes that integrate system value propositions with customer value drivers." This emerging area of research raises interesting questions. E.g., traditional development approaches focus on improving the efficiency and effectiveness of organizational processes. The design of ICT enabled services may, however, require an emphasis on the socio-psychological aspects, such as the value-in-use and user/consumer experience. Thus the shift from consumer and enterprise users to co-creators of value, calls for a significant re-appraisal of our current design and development approaches. 

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

* ICT enabled services, mobile services, and consumer Information Systems related topics
	- Analytics supported design and development
	- Socio-psychological aspects
	- Temporospatial relevance 
	- Discovery and fuzzy-front end processes
	- Innovation processes
* Consumers and/or enterprise users aspects
	- Service ecosystems 
	- Social networking
	- Location aware mobile services 
	- Hedonic ICT enabled services 
	- ICT enabled analytics services
	- Mobile analytics services
	- Understanding social/cultural contexts
