*AIS-Journals Joint Author Workshop in ECIS 2014 -- Open Call*

*
Submission due by Thursday APR 24*

------------------------------------------------------------------------

With the success of the first workshop in PACIS 2013, Association for 
Information Systems (AIS) will hold a similar workshop the first time in 
ECIS 2014 especially designed to assist authors who had submitted or 
plan to submit their work to one of the AIS-8 and 4 other AIS Journals 
(i.e., MISQ, EJIS, ISJ, ISR, JIT, JMIS, JSIS, JAIS, plus CAIS, MISQE, 
PAJAIS, THCI).

This is an AIS-sponsored joint workshop where selected editors and 
authors of all AIS journals are congregating and mingling in one place.  
The purpose is to have an interactive discussion between 1-2 editors and 
3-4 authors on the same table. Each author can only present one paper in 
this workshop and is obliged to stay on the same table. There is a lunch 
event for all registered participants and mentors.

The workshop welcomes authors to submit full papers, work-in-progress 
papers, or extended abstracts of at least 5 pages.  Authors who had 
submitted papers to ECIS 2014 are welcome to submit their papers again 
to this workshop and get a chance to interact with the editors. Each 
accepted paper will entitle a 15-minute oral presentation to a small 
group of AIS journal editors and other prospective authors in a 
round-table format, followed by a 30-minute interactive discussion.  The 
discussion following each presentation focuses on how to improve the 
paper for journal submission. During each session, up to 4 papers will 
be presented and discussed on each table; each paper will last for up to 
45 minutes. To facilitate discussion, all editors and authors must read 
the papers on the same table before attending the workshop.

A number of AIS journal Editors and Senior Editors have been invited to 
participate and there should be enough capacity to serve a group of 40 
papers. Acceptance to the workshop will be on a first-come, first-served 
basis. Priority will be given to full or nearly-completed papers.
