Is your research concerned with the interaction of

information
systems, organizations and society? Do you need a forum

to discuss
some of your current research ideas or findings that

have not
crystallized into a formal paper? Would you like

feedback from your
peers as you move your current research forward? Do you

want to meet
internationally respected researchers in information

systems?

If so, we invite you to present your research-in-

progress or ideas for
paper development at OASIS, the IFIP Working Group 8.2

research
workshop. OASIS is open to all interested scholars and

professionals
who are researching in the area of information systems,

organizations
and society. The unique and collegial character of the

IFIP Working
Group 8.2 (http://ifipwg82.org/content/mission) ensures

constructive,
helpful, and high-quality feedback. This is a great

opportunity for
you to share your research, meet group members, and

learn about their
research in a relaxed and supportive setting.

This year, OASIS will be held prior to ICIS 2015 on

Saturday, 12
December 2015 in Fort Worth, Texas. Papers will be

workshopped in
small group discussions in a round-table format. Papers

will be
grouped around the themes of submissions. Participants

will be
expected to read and comment on other papers in their

group. The goal
is to help move the work forward to publication in other

venues.

We invite those interested in sharing and discussing

their
research-in-progress or under-development-papers to

submit via the
EasyChair online submission system:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=oasis2015

There are two types of submissions: short papers and

long papers. The
length of short papers and long papers is limited to

5,000 words and
10,000 words respectively (excluding references). The

format of the
submission is a Word or PDF document that includes a

title, author
names and affiliations, and 3-4 keywords.

The deadline for submission is 10 September 2015.

Authors will be
notified of acceptance/rejection decisions by 24

September 2015. As a
paper development workshop there will not be formal

proceedings;
accepted papers will be made available to other

attendees for the
period of the workshop and a printed abstract will be

include as part
of the conference pack.

Further information including registration details will

be provided on
the conference website. Any questions regarding OASIS
