[AISWorld] CfP: Products & Prototypes at DESRIST 2017 in Karlsruhe, Germany

[Oliver Müller]

Call for Papers
----------------------------
Products & Prototypes at DESRIST 2017 - http://desrist2017.kit.edu<http://desrist2017.kit.edu/>

Products & Prototypes Chairs:
- Peter Loos, Saarland University, Germany
- Oliver Müller, IT University of Copenhagen, Denmark
- Jason Thatcher, Clemson University, USA

The Products & Prototypes Track is intended to showcase implementations of innovative IT artifacts (i.e., constructs, models, methods). The track provides an opportunity to demonstrate and discuss emerging IT artifacts with researchers and practitioners.

Submissions for the Products & Prototypes Track should comprise the following sections in no more than 5 pages:
- Introduction
- Design of the artifact (e.g., problem statement, use cases, intended user groups, list of features)
- Significance to research (e.g., innovativeness of the artifact)
- Significance to practice (e.g., usefulness of the artifact)
- Evaluation of the artifact (e.g., in laboratory or field settings)
- If available, screencast of or link to an implementation of the artifact

Accepted submission will be published in the DESRIST conference proceedings (Springer LNCS). For formatting guidelines for accepted papers please refer to paper Springer LNCS formatting guidelines.

The DESRIST 2017 Conference
----------------------------
12th Design Science Research in Information Systems and Technologies (DESRIST) 2017 Conference http://desrist2017.kit.edu/

Location: Karlsruhe, Germany
Date: May 31 - June 1, 2017

Theme: Designing the Digital Transformation

The rapid digital transformation of businesses and society creates new challenges and opportunities for Information Systems (IS) research with a strong focus on design.  There has been a surge of interest in Design Science Research in IS in the last few years, and we conclude that this is now a mature field. The goal of the Design Science Research paradigm is to extend the boundaries of human and organizational capabilities by designing new and innovative constructs, models, methods, processes, and systems. Scholars having different backgrounds such as information systems, computer science, software engineering, energy informatics, and medical informatics are actively engaged in generating novel solutions to interesting design problems in IS.

With this year's theme, we hope to focus attention on Design Science Research on digital transformation of businesses and society. In addition to a Best Paper Award, the conference will provide an award to the best paper addressing the conference theme.
