AMCIS 2015 Spanish & Portuguese Track
Track Co-Chairs:

Track Description:
The AMCIS 2015 Spanish, Portuguese, and Latin America track promotes IS/IT/MIS research in and about Latin America. Latin America makes up a large part of the Americas and its population speaks primarily Spanish or Portuguese. ACMIS is a conference in English for the Americas.  To bridge this gap, this track opens a space for rigorous and high-quality research that is written in Spanish or Portuguese while also accepting papers in English that bring together IS/IT/MIS research and Latin America.

Any IS/IT/MIS paper that could be accepted in other AMCIS tracks but that it could not be reviewed there because it is written in Spanish or Portuguese is a reasonable submission for this Track. Additionally, papers written in English that specifically study Latin America are also welcome here.

Accepted papers will be published in the language they were submitted (papers in Spanish or Portuguese will also include a copy of the title and abstract in English). Presentations can be made in English, Spanish, or Portuguese at the authors' discretion.

La Conferencia de Sistemas de Información de las Americas (AMCIS) promueve investigación cientifica y rigorosa sobre Sistemas de Información (SI), Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicación (TIC) y Gestión de los Sistemas de Información (GIS) conducida en y sobre America Latina. America Latina conforma una gran parte del continente cuya población habla principalmente español o portugues. Siendo AMCIS una conferencia en Inglés para las Américas este track de AMCIS abre un espacio para la diseminación de trabajos científicos en español o portugués, además de aceptar manuscritos en Inglés que combinan investigación sobre SI, TIC, GIS y América Latina.
Cualquier manuscrito sobre SI, TIC o GIS que podría ser aceptado en alguno de las tracks de AMCIS pero que está escrito en Español representa una presentación razonable para este track. Los trabajos aceptados serán publicados en español, pero también se incluirá una copia del título y del resumen en inglés. Las presentaciones en la conferencia pueden realizarse en inglés o español dependiendo del criterio de los autores. Los mejores trabajos serán invitados para ser ampliados e incluidos de forma acelerada en la Revista Latinoamericana y del Caribe de la Asociación de Sistemas de Información (RELCASI) -a double-blind peer-reviewed journal of the AIS-.
