<p class="Default"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">In the past few decades, the field of Information Systems (IS) has come a long way. IS researchers today are making valuable contributions not only to the conferences, workshops and journals devoted to the field
 but also to outlets meant for other disciplines such as economics, organizational behavior, operations management, marketing, strategy, and computer science. With the passage of time, the IS field has become vibrant and stable and is taking its rightful place
 beside other fields. However, one aspect of IS research has remained constant. IS research does not just examine past phenomena; it makes special attempts to discover tomorrow’s problems and opportunities. As IT-based innovations continue to shape strategies
 and business practices in virtually every industry or sector, opportunities to make forward looking contributions are also on the rise.
