Call for Papers


General SIGSAND Information

SIGSAND is the special interest group on system analysis and design of the Association for Information Systems (AIS). SIGSAND provides services such as news, announcement of conferences and call for papers, portals for working papers, research, and teaching, sponsorship of tracks at major conferences, an annual symposium, listserv, and special issues in journals. SIGSAND also has an international presence, that is growing, as evidenced by its international chapters.

Submission Guidelines

Faculty, graduate students, and independent scholars are invited to submit completed research papers, research in progress papers, or extended position statements in the area of Systems Analysis and Design. Issues addressed in submissions can range from the creation of new systems analysis and design formalisms and development methods (grammars and methods), to the evaluation of new or existing formalisms and methods by examining issues involving their use (scripts and context), to polemic arguments on the potential value of the approach. Given the broad range of issues in this call, submissions can be anchored in any of a range of research methods including: formal analysis, systems development (design science), experiments, case studies, and field studies. 
 

Topics of Interest

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: agile methods, process modeling, analysis and design of service-oriented systems, component based development, conceptual modeling, database design and query languages, empirical studies in systems analysis and design, object oriented methods and methodologies, ontological foundations, project management issues in systems analysis and design, rapid systems development, requirements engineering, security issues in systems analysis and design, software testing and quality control, teaching systems analysis and design, transition from structured approaches to object oriented approaches, unified modeling language (UML), user participation, workflow modeling.

Submission Process

Submissions will be reviewed by the symposium organizers for relevance and contribution to SA&D. Accepted submissions will receive in-depth feedback from symposium participants and will be included in the proceedings. Authors will retain copyright on their work, allowing them to submit revised versions of their papers to other outlets. The following length limits apply:

Completed research - 5,000 words

Research in progress - 3,000 words

Position statements - 3,000 words
