[AISWorld] Call for Papers: Advanced Information Technologies on Business Operations

[Zhang, Jennifer]

Impacts of Advanced Information Technologies on Business Operations

(Part of the Organizational Systems and Technology Track, HICSS 48)



We invite you to submit papers for the "Impacts of Advanced Information Technologies on Business Operations" minitrack at HICSS, January 5-8, 2015. The conference will be held on Kauai, Hawaii.


This minitrack, building upon a successful track record of the last five years, will bring to HICSS high quality research that use analytical and empirical modeling approaches to explore the increasing complex roles that advanced information technologies such as RFID, cloud computing, and Web 2.0 play in business operations and strategies. In particular, we seek novel studies that systematically explore the complex interplays between information technology and business process designs, customer relationship management, organizational architectures, product development, sales and services, and supply chain management. We are also soliciting comprehensive reviews of relevant research, rigorous case studies, and applications highlighting the use of new technologies, methods, and techniques. There is a growing body of research within the economics, marketing, operations management, information systems, and healthcare communities which are starting to address those issues. This minitrack has been attracting a growing number of scholars from all over the world and has already led to three successful Special Issues in the Decision Support Systems journal. We expect to see applications in:

*         business analytics and big data in supply chain management

*         information sharing and integration along the supply chain

*         sales innovation using real-time location and social data

*         the impact of web 2.0 on competition and cooperation

*         capacity planning, contracting and supply chain design

*         social media implications for operations management

*         using mobile applications for order fulfillment

*         crowdsourcing and product innovation

*         outsourcing service operations

*         innovations in healthcare IT

Selected papers from the minitrack will be fast tracked to a Special Issue of a leading refereed journal.
