The IFIP Working Group 8.2 was established in 1977 as a working group
concerned with "the interaction of information systems and the
organization."  The fluidity of IT over time has afforded and facilitated
many new opportunities for organizing, conducting business, and
collaborating. The 2011 OASIS workshop promotes understanding of the
implications of these opportunities and the challenges they present to
organizations.



*We invite you to present your as-yet unpublished research at OASIS, the
IFIP Working Group 8.2 research workshop. **This year, we will have two
types of presentation tracks:*



*1.      **“Almost Ready for Prime Time” for presentation and discussion in
the traditional “stand and deliver, then take questions” format, and,***

* *

*2.      **“Research in Progress” that will highlight work still under
development and will feature small group discussions in a round-table
format, for example, theoretical development, data collection, or data
analysis “trouble-shooting sessions.” ***



The IFIP 8.2 working group focuses on the development and use of information
technologies in organizational contexts, both broadly defined. The group
seeks to generate and disseminate knowledge about and improves our
understanding of the role and impact of information technology and to
improve the design and application of information technologies that are both
useful and effective for individuals, groups, organizations, and society at
large.



The OASIS workshop is open to all interested scholars and professionals who
are researching in the area of organizations, information systems, and
society. The unique and collegial character of the IFIP Working Group 8.2
ensures constructive, helpful, and high-quality feedback. This is a great
opportunity for you to share your research, meet IFIP WG 8.2 members, and
learn about their research in a relaxed and supportive setting.







For more information about the Working Group, see http://ifipwg82.org/.
