[AISWorld] SIGSAND Track and Minitracks @ AMCIS 2018

[Samuel, Binny (samuelby)]

The AIS Special Interest Group Systems Analysis and Design (SIGSAND) is sponsoring a track at AMCIS 2018 and we invite your submissions to one of the three minitracks.

Systems analysis involves examining business problems (opportunities) and identifying possible solutions, whereas systems design includes the identification, specification and implementation of an information technology solution.  The combined field of Systems Analysis and Design deals with all issues related to the development of systems and as such is of central importance to the Information Systems discipline, including understanding how businesses can create value with new digital technologies.  The SIGSAND track provides a forum for discussing research related to systems development tools, methodologies and other activities throughout the systems development life cycle (SDLC). This includes requirements determination, modeling techniques and languages, agile systems development practices, empirical evaluation of analysis and design methods, user involvement in systems development, open source development, design of systems architecture, and other technical and organizational issues in systems development.

The three minitracks this year are:
Minitrack 1) Innovations in SA&D Processes
Minitrack 2) Contemporary Issues in Agile Development
Minitrack 3) Modeling Languages, Methodologies, Methods, Techniques, and Tools

You can read more about the minitracks on the AMCIS 2018 website: http://amcis2018.aisnet.org/?page_id=111#toggle-id-28

The deadline for Completed Research and Emergent Research Forum (EFF) submissions is February 28.


We look forward to your submissions!
