[AISWorld] Invitation to the IFIP WG 8.6 conference

[Peter Axel Nielsen]

Call for participation

IFIP 8.6 Conference, Aalborg, Denmark, June 2-4, 2014<http://ifip2014.aau.dk/>

Theme: “Creating Values for All Through IT” is intended to encourage researchers to reflect on future technologies that create value by transferring and diffusing new functionality, features and capability, in new forms, and to larger groups of users and customers.
    New phenomena that have the potential to extend our perspective on value creation include: platforms for third-party development, internet of things, green IS, smart cities, social media, and cloud computing. Contexts in which IT is used becomes increasingly complex, uncertain, and differentiated. These are just a few examples. This conference will provide a forum for consideration and evaluation of new and radical innovations and allow researchers to consider values and value creation in the context of advanced utilisation of future and enabling information technologies.
     The IFIP 8.6 Conference 2014 promotes scientific excellence and practical implications on transfer and diffusion of information technology and invites academics and practitioners to participate to extend our research-based knowledge on this topic. The conference will feature an exciting program of scientific papers, keynotes, panels and ample opportunity for networking.
    The research community IFIP Working Group 8.6<http://ifipwg86.wikidot.com/about-us> is an open research community aiming to foster understanding and improve research in practice, methods, and techniques in the transfer and diffusion of information technology within systems that are developed and in the development process.
