>
> The 2nd International Rapid Mashup Challenge launches again a competition
> between mashup approaches/tools with special attention to their
> expressiveness and speed. We invite developers and researchers working on
> mashups, mashup tools and assisting technologies to compete in the creation
> of the most interesting and/or complex mashup they can develop within a

> the Challenge is to allow everybody working on mashups and composite Web
> applications to showcase their ideas and solutions and to establish an
> event that is both challenging and fun.
>
> We are interested in all kinds of mashup composition tools and approaches:
> from programming languages, domain-specific languages to natural language,
> from visual modeling tools to textual ones, etc. Submissions will be
> screened based on relevance, originality and maturity. Admitted
> contributions will be evaluated as follows: Points will be given (i) by the
> organizers for the supported mashup features based on the initial
> submission (see the checklist) and (ii) by the audience for the complexity
> of the mashup, the elegance of its construction and the showcased features
> of the mashup tool based on the live demonstration.

> French Journal of Management Information Systems (Syst?mes d'Information

> Information technologies play an increasingly important and prominent role
> in the health care sector. Health facilities, caregivers, patients and
> consumers have a vast array of IT solutions at their disposal. This
> includes the clinical information systems used in hospitals, which have
> functions for managing electronic patient records, laboratory results and
> medical imaging. We also see greater use of various forms of telemedicine,
> including teleconsultation, home telemonitoring and tele-expertise,
> intended to improve access to health care for patients who are
> geographically isolated or losing their autonomy. Lastly, the mobile
> applications available on various platforms are able to transform or even
> re-invent how care is provided to patients, who are shouldering greater
> responsibility for the management of their care.
>
> Over the last few years many international and North American conferences,
> including ICIS, HICSS and AMCIS, have special tracks devoted to health IT.
> Some of the leading journals in the field of information systems, such as
> EJIS, ISR and JAIS, have published special issues on the subject in recent
> years. Yet despite this growing interest, at this juncture European
> research in this area is still highly fragmented. The main objective of
> this special issue is to fill this gap by publishing a series of original,
> stimulating, rigorous and highly erudite articles.
>
> With the current proliferation of projects to implement information
> technology in health facilities across Europe and around the world, we are
> in an ideal environment for studying a wide range of research issues in
> information systems, such as organizational and individual adoption,
> resistance to change, project escalation, strategic alignment, governance
> of information systems, etc. Such problems are particularly significant in
> teaching hospitals, which constitute one of the most complex organizational
> models.

> The systems currently in place can be used to redefine information flows
> in a hospital department, a health facility or a network of facilities, so
> investigators in information systems are well placed to propose enlightened

> application of communications standards, and patient data security and
> confidentiality. Beyond the inherent interest in studying such a complex
> and fascinating sector, the challenge lies in developing actionable
> knowledge to support high-quality data that can be used for evidence-based
> management.

> However, beyond the recurring problems in information systems, the study
> of health IT also creates opportunities to investigate new research
> questions. This is the case with the creation of economic models associated
> with different forms of telemedicine, or even how IT use is transforming
> the very nature of the work performed by health care professionals.
> For example, investigations could examine how big data is transforming
> clinical decision making, the place of information systems in the creation
> and sharing of good clinical practices, and the role played by IT in
> changing individual behaviours and power structures within hospitals.
> Lastly, there are other research subjects or themes that deal more
> specifically with patients. This includes the accelerated deployment of
> social networks and mobile applications, which provides new opportunities
> to study the role and place of patients in the emerging care model.

> Since the study of health IT is by its very nature pragmatic and applied,
> it also encourages evaluative research. More prevalent in medical
> informatics, this type of work is primarily aimed at rigorously and
> exhaustively documenting the expected as well as unexpected impacts
> associated with the use of new IT solutions. Various methodological
> approaches, including questionnaire surveys, in-depth case studies,
> comparative randomized trials, simulations, action research and systematic
> literature reviews shed light on the nature and scope of the impacts of IT
> use in the health care sector.
>
> In sum, we hope that this special issue will help advance the state of
> knowledge on IT applications in health and lay the groundwork for original
> avenues for future research. We are therefore encouraging the information
> systems community to submit empirical, conceptual and theoretical articles
> (in French or English) on any of the problems discussed above or on one of
> the following subjects (non-exhaustive list):
>
> - The barriers to organizational adoption of IT in health care
> organizations;
>
> - Change management problems related to IT implementations in
> health facilities;
>
> - IT project management issues in the health care sector;
>
> - Strategic alignment of IT in health facilities;
>
> - The use of big data initiatives and their impacts on clinical
> decision making;
>
> - The role of information systems in the development and sharing
> of good clinical practices;
>
> - e-health related to the place of patients in emerging care
> models, in particular as this can be supported through the use of social
> networks and mobile applications;
>
> - The challenges and changes associated with the interoperability
> and interconnection of clinical information systems between facilities;
>
> - Governance models implemented in the industrialized countries
> to manage IT investments in health;
>
> - The role and contribution of the IT department in health
> facilities;
>
> - Issues associated with the implementation and deployment of
> national electronic health record projects;
>
> - The adoption, emerging uses and impacts of connected objects in
