[Dr. Jyoti Choudrie]

Track: Internet and the Digital Economy


Minitrack: The Diffusion, Impacts, Adoption and Usage of ICTs upon Society

We are seeking submissions to the Diffusion, Impacts, Adoption and Usage of
ICTs upon Society mini-track to be held in HICSS 2014.

 

HICSS 2014 is taking place at the Hilton Waikoloa on the Big Island of
Hawaii from Jan. 6-9th, 2014.

 

Detailed information about the conference can be found at:
http://www.hicss.hawaii.edu/hicss_47/apahome47.htm and information for
potential authors can be found at:
http://www.hicss.hawaii.edu/hicss_47/47cfp.pdf

 

Due date for submission of full papers is: June 15, 2013

 

The aim of this mini-track is to offer a global perspective of how ICTs are
being diffused, used and adopted within society (households, social
communities, micro organizations to medium sized organizations). Adoption,
usage and diffusion studies are prevalent in Information Systems (IS)
research and offer an insight into many issues surrounding ‘how’
technologies are being introduced, ‘when’ and ‘how’. By undertaking this
research academics, industry and government agencies will learn of how ICTs
are being utilised by various groups and communities in society and what
measures are being undertaken to have households and the various social
communities adopt and use the ICTs with a further consideration of the
impacts of the ICTs. Due to this, case studies, experiments, empirical,
applied studies are emerging on a daily basis. For this purpose, topics and
research areas included in this mini-track are, but are not limited to:

*	The adoption and usage of ICTs, broadband, mobile phones and other
ICTs within households
*	The adoption, use and diffusion impacts of ICTs upon households
*	The adoption and usage of ICTs upon various social communities (eg.
Residential neighbourhoods and Internet cafes)
*	The impacts of ICTs upon various social communities
*	Evaluation of the technological and non-technological aspects of the
adoption and usage of ICTs
*	Evaluating the technological and non-technological aspects of the
impacts of ICTs
*	The diffusion, adoption and usage of ICTs within households
*	The diffusion, adoption and usage of ICTs within various social
communities
*	Stakeholder theory and the adoption, diffusion and usage of ICTs
*	Human Computer Interaction issues related to the adoption, usage and
impact factors in the context of ICTS
*	Economics of the Adoption, Use and Diffusion of ICTs in society
*	Economics of the Adoption, Use and Diffusion of ICTs in households
*	Policies and the adoption, diffusion, use of Broadband in societies
and households.
