AMCIS 2009 8/6/09 San Francisco (Submit 1/2/09)
http://amcis2009.aisnet.org/
The AMCIS 2009 program will include state-of-the-art research and broad-interest tutorials, tracks and mini-tracks offering high-quality research papers, panels from experts in academia and industry, and highly skill-oriented workshops.
AMCIS 2009 in San Francisco will feature tracks directly dealing with practitioners’ issues (outsourcing, IS training, and emerging information technologies) as well as CIO panels discussing issues such as evolution of IT communities of practice, and collaboration between academics and practitioners.
Papers are peer-reviewed using a double-blind system and will be considered for Best Paper Awards. In 2009, a Best Paper Award for a practitioner-oriented paper will be selected with input from CIOs.
To strengthen both the quality and the inter-disciplinary nature of the conference, papers that deal with both technology and management issues will be reviewed by at least one specialist in each area.
One innovation will include special poster sessions for those research papers that may be more appropriate for informal presentation. In addition, there will be presentations in languages other than English. In 2009, the AMCIS program will also initiate an AIS Fellows track.
