Data Marketplaces Beyond Conceptualization: Business Models, Governance, and Societal Concerns
Data marketplaces play a pivotal role in the emerging data economy by enabling the exchange of data products in data ecosystems (de Reuver et al., 2022; Oliveira et al., 2019). Data marketplaces are a subtype of digital platforms that create value through a) matching data providers and consumers, b) providing infrastructure for contract creation, and c) facilitating the transportation and payment of data products (Spiekermann, 2019; Stahl et al., 2016). Data marketplaces can have numerous forms, ranging from business-to-business (centralized or decentralized) data marketplaces to personal ones (Fruhwirth et al., 2020). While most data marketplaces are commercial platforms, public data spaces offer new vistas for creating public platform ecosystems (Beverungen et al., 2022).
Die Internationale Tagung für Wirtschaftsinformatik und Information Systems ist die wichtigste Tagung der Wirtschaftsinformatikforschung im deutschsprachigen Raum. Sie bietet Wissenschaftlern, Unternehmern und Nachwuchskräften die Möglichkeit, sich über den Stand der aktuellen Forschung zu informieren und ermöglicht somit einen Austausch zwischen der Wissenschaft und Praxis.

The BPM conference series embraces the diversity and richness of the BPM field and serves as a melting pot for experts from a mix of disciplines including Computer Science, Information Systems Engineering, and Management.
Data Marketplaces beyond Conceptualization: Business Models, Governance, and Societal Concerns
Data marketplaces play a pivotal role in the data economy by enabling the exchange of data products in data ecosystems. Data marketplaces are digital platforms that match data providers and consumers, provide infrastructure for contract creation, and facilitate the transport and payment of data products. Despite their promise, many data marketplaces fail to become commercially viable due to challenges related to business models, governance, and societal concerns. To move data marketplaces beyond conceptualization toward the commercialization phase, this minitrack calls for theoretical, empirical, or design science papers contributing to the broad topic of data marketplaces that focus on business models (e.g., the distinctions between data marketplaces with similar concepts such as data spaces, data platforms, or data collaborative; critical success factors of viable data marketplaces; industry contextual factors), governance topics (e.g., interactions between actors; governance hierarchy; outcomes of governance mechanisms), and societal concerns (e.g., data privacy; confidentiality; sovereignty; digital responsibility).
The International Conference on Business Process Management (BPM) is the premium forum for researchers and practitioners in the field of BPM. The conference embraces the interdisciplinary nature of BPM to its fullest extent. To this end, the conference explicitly seeks to bring together the finest research contributions and viewpoints from the fields of computer science, information systems engineering, and information system management. The objective is to enhance or refine the existing portfolio of theories, methods and tools for managing and improving business processes.
To accommodate this diversity, the BPM conference is structured into three tracks: Foundations, Engineering, and Management. Each track covers different phenomena of interest and research methods. Accordingly, each track has specific evaluation criteria, a separate track chair, and a dedicated program committee.
Digitale Technologien durchdringen alle Bereiche unserer Gesellschaft. Gegenstände werden durch ihre Erweiterung um Informationstechnik „smart“. Zunehmend größere und verschiedenartige Datenmengen stehen zur Verfügung, um Ereignisse zu dokumentieren, zu analysieren und vorhersagen zu können. Neuere Methoden der künstlichen Intelligenz erlauben die Übertragung von Aufgaben, die bisher Menschen vorbehalten waren, an Maschinen und Informationssysteme, schaffen aber auch völlig neue Aufgaben.
Derartige Veränderungen können vielfältige Implikationen haben. Kunden und Mitarbeiter können ihr Verhalten ändern. Unternehmen überdenken ihre Marktposition, passen ihre Strukturen z.B. mit internen Startups an und etablieren neue Rollen, wie z.B. die eines Chief Digital Officers. Insbesondere müssen Unternehmen ihre Geschäftsmodelle kritisch prüfen oder parallel neue Geschäftszweige aufbauen, um im Wettbewerb bestehen zu können. Einerseits kann eine erfolgreiche Digitale Transformation unter anderem zu mehr Wirtschaftswachstum führen, andererseits gilt es, nicht intendierten Risiken entgegenzuwirken oder diese zu vermeiden.
Dieser Konferenz-Track schafft einen Rahmen für die Präsentation, Diskussion und Entwicklung innovativer Ansätze zur Digitalen Transformation bestehender Unternehmen sowie zur Etablierung neuer Unternehmen. Wir unterstützen dabei ein breites Spektrum erkenntnistheoretischer Positionen und Forschungsmethoden zur Entwicklung und Diskussion neuartiger Theorien und IT-Artefakte.
Besonders begrüßen wir Beiträge, die Einsichten in die Wirkungsmechanismen der Digitalen Transformation geben und dabei bestehende Theorien und IT-Artefakte der Wirtschaftsinformatik infrage stellen oder konzeptionell weiterentwickeln. Konkrete Anwendungsfälle sind genauso von Interesse wie großzahlig-empirische Beiträge, die untersuchen, wie sich technologische Entwicklungen auf die Gestaltung von Geschäftsmodellen auswirken. Dabei sind alle Teile eines Geschäftsmodells – Produkt bzw. Dienstleistung, Kundenbeziehung, Ressourcen sowie Kosten- und Erlösmodell – gleichermaßen von Interesse. Ebenso von Interesse sind auch die strukturelle Einbettung von Digitalisierungs¬initiativen in Unternehmen und Branchen sowie deren Management. Literaturanalysen und Taxonomien müssen neben einer Aufbereitung der Literatur zwingend auch innovative Ideen und konkrete Perspektiven für die digitale Transformation oder die Etablierung neuer Unternehmen entwickeln.
Das Doctoral Consortium der WI2022 dient dazu, die Dissertationsvorhaben der ausgewählten Teilnehmer/innen durch Coaching und hochwertiges Feedback erfahrener Professoren/innen außerhalb der eigenen Universität weiterzuentwickeln. Weiterhin wird der Austausch mit anderen Doktoranden/innen gefördert. Zielgruppe sind Doktoranden/innen der Wirtschaftsinformatik (oder einer Nachbardisziplin mit fachlichem Schwerpunkt in Wirtschaftsinformatik) im zweiten oder dritten Jahr ihres Promotionsstudiums.
DESRIST 2021 will take place in Kristiansand, Norwegen at the University of Agder.
The design science research (DSR) community has traditionally focused on socio-technical design to
improve the human condition, simultaneously considering tasks, technologies, people, and social
structures at the individual, organizational, and societal levels. As the field matured, the “design first and
people will adapt” approach gave way to methods and frameworks that embrace the evolving needs of
users as well as contextual changes over time. Broadly speaking, DSR scholars have taken three
approaches. Some work closely with stakeholders and practitioners using action design research (ADR) to
gain a deeper understanding into their needs, wishes, and challenges. Others focus on developing novel
and innovative artifacts to assist specific target users in pursuing their aims. Still others find ways to make
the knowledge created through their DSR projects reusable across contexts and time, so that designers
can build on this knowledge and focus attention on developing methods and artifacts of increasing
usefulness. What these three approaches have in common is their cognizance of the sociotechnical nature
of design.

The conference theme of ECIS 2020 is Liberty, Equality, and Fraternity in a Digitizing World. As the United Nation’s 2030 sustainable development goals highlight, we live in a world where not everyone enjoys the freedoms commonly argued to be a human right (like freedom of speech, of religion, of assembly); where eradication of poverty and inclusiveness are still far from a reality; and where loneliness and isolation remain a common experience for many. Digital technologies are sometimes presented as at least part of the solution for helping to drive towards a sustainable and inclusive future. Yet at the same time, digital technologies have also been identified as a threat to our freedoms (e.g., in relation to our privacy), to fairness (e.g., with the digital divide decreasing the economic opportunities for some, and with robotization causing unemployment levels for others), and to community (e.g., with social media reducing face-to-face relationships between people even while online connections may be increasing).
In other words, the consequences (both intended and unintended) of ever-more pervasive digital technologies in our work and personal lives in relation to creating a more inclusive and sustainable world are not straight-forward. For this conference, then, we are especially interested in papers that discuss and expand our understanding of how digital technologies are influencing and impacting fundamental human values, whether at the individual, the organization and/or the societal level. In addition to the conference theme, ECIS 2020 hopes to attract a range of traditional track themes that have been at the heart of the IS community in Europe, as well as tracks covering new emergent themes. The aim of ECIS 2020 is to form a meeting place for people in the IS field to discuss fundamental and innovative issues related to Information Systems.

Information Systems for a Sharing Society
A Sharing Society enables the advanced development of digital information technologies. Governments, organizations, and individuals have gained new capabilities and opportunities for sharing data, information, and knowledge in the world gone digital. The sharing activities bring the new possibility for governments to build an eco-social system for meeting citizens' essential needs; these create new waves of competition among businesses for creating new digital business designs and ways to manage customer relationships; these also enhance people's power in controlling their lives in the digital society. However, a Sharing Society triggers emerging challenges and issues that need to be adequately addressed, such as privacy and the digital divide. The continuous evolution of a Sharing Society significantly influences the efficient and effective use of information systems and advanced digital technologies. These are important to study from multiple perspectives.
ECIS 2019 will be a meeting platform for European and international researchers in the field of Information Systems to discuss and debate this sharing phenomenon. We envisage studies that reflect upon and provide innovative solutions that contribute to the sustainable development of the sharing society.

The CBI series aims at creating a forum for researchers and practitioners from various fields and backgrounds that contribute to the construction, use and maintenance of information systems and their organizational use contexts. A dedicated goal of the CBI series of conferences is to bring together researchers from different fields and disciplines to stimulate discussion, synergy and collaboration. Accordingly, the CBI conferences use a format that enables in depth discussions among researchers during the conference. The benefits of such a cross-disciplinary conception are contrasted by a challenge: Authors who submit a paper take the risk to be assessed by standards that are different from those they are used to in their own research communities. The CBI’s organization accounts for this challenge by the various tracks covering different fields, their track chairs and program committee members and program chairs. Tracks are not only intended to represent a certain subject area, but also to include papers from different communities.
Daniel Beverungen is member of the Program Commitee. For details and more information and important dates see our Call for Papers.

Prof. Dr. Daniel Beverungen ist auf der VHB-Jahrestagung 2018 in Magdeburg Track Chair für den Bereich Wirtschaftsinformatik.
Die 80. Pfingsttagung des Verbands der Hochschullehrer für Betriebswirtschaft e. V. (VHB) findet vom 23. bis 25. Mai 2018 an der Otto-von-Guericke-Universität Magdeburg statt. Im Zentrum der Tagung steht die Analyse betriebswirtschaftlicher Entscheidungsprozesse, welche sich stets in einem Spannungsfeld zwischen der Rationalität der Optimierungsmethoden und der eingeschränkten Rationalität des menschlichen Handelns befinden. In den Vorträgen und Plenumsdiskussionen soll unter anderem der zentralen Frage nachgegangen werden, welche Einschränkungen der Rationalität bei der Optimierung der Entscheidungsprozesse berücksichtigt werden sollten, um in der Praxis umsetzbare Mechanismen zu entwerfen. Die Diskussionen mit Experten aus der Wissenschaft und der Unternehmenspraxis geben der betriebswirtschaftlichen Forschung Impulse für eine verstärkt praxisnahe und verhaltensrobuste Entscheidungsunterstützung, die für die Wirtschaft von großer Bedeutung sind.
Die Jahrestagung des Verbands der Hochschullehrer für Betriebswirtschaft e. V. bietet ein Forum, um neue Forschungsergebnisse aus allen Gebieten der Betriebswirtschaftslehre vorzustellen und zu diskutieren. Es können sowohl Vorträge als auch Symposien eingereicht werden.

Cyber-Physische Systeme (CPS) sind selbstoptimierende und rekonfigurative Systeme, die informationstechnische und physische Subsysteme mittels Kommunikationstechnik verknüpfen. Durch die Einbindung von Sensoren und Aktuatoren in ein digitales Gesamtsystem stellen CPS neuartige Systemfunktionen für die Informations-, Daten-, und Funktionsintegration zur Verfügung und ermöglichen so die Entwicklung vernetzter, digitaler Wertschöpfungsnetzwerke wie z. B. Smart Factory und Smart Mobility. Solche innovativen Geschäftsmodelle bzw. Smart Services wurden bislang jedoch nur exemplarisch etabliert und der Mehrwert von CPS wurde selten in konkreten Anwendungsszenarien nachgewiesen. Eine technische Voraussetzung für erfolgreiche CPS sind intelligente Dienste, die den Datenaustausch zwischen den Subsystemen des CPS ermöglichen. An der Schnittstelle zwischen eingebetteten Systemen und Anwendungssystemen müssen insb. Event-getriebene Architekturen und Datenschnittstellen konzipiert und implementiert werden. Cloud Computing ist ein vielversprechender Ansatz für die bedarfsgerechte Provisionierung digitaler Ressourcen. Im Rahmen einer IT-Architektur ist die Gestaltung von CPS als Gesamtsystem festzulegen. Hierbei sind Standardisierungspotenziale zu nutzen, die eine Interoperabilität der Subsysteme ermöglichen. Technische, organisatorische und rechtliche Aspekte sind zu betrachten. Dass das Verhalten bzw. die Prozesse der beteiligten Subsysteme nur eingeschränkt im Rahmen des Entwurfs vorherbestimmt werden kann, wirft zudem Fragen der Gestaltbarkeit bzw. Emergenz der Subsysteme und der CPS auf.
Die MKWI 2018 in Lüneburg steht unter dem Motto „Data driven X – Turning Data into Value“ und adressiert damit eine für Unternehmen und die öffentliche Verwaltung hoch aktuelle und potenzialträchtige Frage: wie die immer noch exponentiell wachsenden Datenbestände genutzt werden können.

The International Conference on Serviceology is an annual academic event initiated by the Society of Serviceology (www.serviceology.org) in Japan aiming to bring together researchers, academic and industry leaders, active and interested in the latest technologies, methodologies, and case studies addressing (co)-creation of services in a sustainable society.
ICServ2017, to be held in Vienna in July 12-14, 2017, is the fifth event in this series, following three successful events in Japan (2013, 2014, 2016) and one in the USA (2015). As its predecessors ICServ2017 aims to be an interdisciplinary forum for people to share their views to exchange ideas, to develop new insights and to report state of the art research results.
ECIS 2017 will take place in Guimarães, Portugal at the Centro Cultural Vila Flor and is hosted by the Department of Information Systems of the University of Minho. The aim of the ECIS 2017 is to discuss the fundamental issues related to the role information systems research and education can play in creating a smart, sustainable and inclusive world.
The world is facing very complex and long-term challenges that require sophisticated and integrated responses in a context of globalization, strong interdependency, pressure on resources, ageing. Simultaneously, the creation and sharing of information and knowledge is growing at a fast pace. The increasing pace of technological innovation and qualification of human resources brings with it the hope that the economic and social changes necessary to the well being of the world population may occur in an effective way.
The International Conference on Design Research in Information Systems and Technology will take place from May 30 to June 1, 2017 at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Germany.
The potential for high-impact design science research is a frequently discussed topic, as the paradigm can generate applicable and relevant findings for practice. The link between design science and practice ecompasses more than the publication and consumption of research. Many design science studies take place in human life or organizational projects, which require ongoing collaboration between research and practice. This collaboration enables a continuous and reciprocal knowledge transfer, as innovative theoretical insights are applied in environments that are natural, complex, and developing.
DESRIST is focused on designing new and innovative constructs, models, methods, processes, and systems. The goal of this design science research (DSR) paradigm is the extension of boundaries of individual and organizational capabilities.
Daniel Beverungen is a member of the program committee and will be acting as a chair for Service Science papers that are submitted to the conference.
Informationstechnologie durchdringt zunehmend alle Bereiche unserer modernen Gesellschaft. Gegenstände werden durch ihre Erweiterung um Sensoren, Aktuatoren, Rechenleistung und Konnektivität „smart“. Soziale Medien ermöglichen Personen, Unternehmen und öffentlichen Verwaltungen eine kontinuierliche und digitale Vernetzung. Zunehmend größere und verschiedenartige Datenmengen stehen zur Verfügung, um Ereignisse dokumentieren, analysieren und in Echtzeit vorhersagen zu können.
In ihrer Gesamtheit wirkt sich diese Digitale Transformation auf das Verhalten von Personen aus und verändert gleichzeitig Strukturen, Prozesse und Informationssysteme in Organisationen. Einerseits führt eine erfolgreich gestaltete Digitale Transformation zu mehr Wirtschaftswachstum, steigert das Gemeinwohl und fördert eine ökologisch nachhaltige Entwicklung. Andererseits gilt es, nicht intendierte Risiken der Digitalen Transformation entgegen zu wirken oder zu verhindern.
Dieser Konferenz-Track schafft einen Rahmen für die Präsentation, Diskussion und Entwicklung innovativer Ideen zur Digitalen Transformation aus der Perspektive einzelner Personen, von Organisationen und Institutionen, Netzwerken und der Gesellschaft insgesamt. Wir unterstützen ein breites Spektrum erkenntnistheoretischer Positionen und Forschungsmethoden zur Entwicklung neuartiger Theorien und innovativer IT-Artefakte. Besonders begrüßen wir Beiträge, die auf „Thought Leadership“ abzielen. Mit „Thought Leadership“ meinen wir innovative und substanzielle Ergebnisse, die neue Einsichten in die Wirkungsmechanismen der Digitalen Transformation geben und darüber hinaus innovative Lösungen zur Gestaltung von Organisationen und Informationssystemen vorstellen („from insight to impact“).

Der Workshop richtet sich an Forschende und Praktiker, die Methoden der Wirtschafts- oder Energieinformatik zur Weiterentwicklung der Energiewende bzw. der Elektromobilität einsetzen. Jedoch ermutigen wir auch Angehörige themenverwandter Forschungsfelder wie der Energie- und Automatisierungstechnik, der Dienstleistungsforschung, dem Entrepreneurship, dem Geschäftsprozessmanagement, dem Internet der Dienste und der Intelligenten Systeme zur Teilnahme.
The IEEE Conference on Business Informatics (CBI) will be held in Paris (France) from 29 August to 1 September 2016.
Business Informatics continues to establish its importance and consolidation as a main domain of research and applied work. IEEE has embarked upon this multidisciplinary area for a number of years. IEEE CBI, now in its 4th edition, plays an active role in the bootstrap process of the growing scientific and professional communities of the emerging field of Business Informatics. The policies adopted by the Steering Committee and the actions of the Organizational Committees are guided by the best international standards and intended on achieving top reputation due to the relevance of the topics selected and the rigor of the contributions selected for presentation.
The IEEE Conference on Business Informatics aims at advancing quality research related to business and practice, while addressing several relevant and inter-related domains. For details on domains (listed below) and topics addressed in this conference see our Call for Papers.
The 18th IEEE Conference on Business informatics will be held in the Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers. We will be delighted to host you in Paris and count on you to have a fruitful and enjoyable conference.
The increased diffusion of sensors in the world has lead to the possibility to monitor in detail the evolution of several real-world objects of interest. GPS receivers, RFID chips, transponders, detectors, cameras, satellites, etc. concur in the depiction of the current status of monitored things. Therefore, the opportunity arose to connect physical reality to digital information. The screening of real-world objects makes indeed sensors the interface towards real-world information, as they are the originators of machine-readable events. The exploitation of such knowledge is leading to successful applications such as Smart Cities, Flight Monitoring, Pollution Control, Internet of Things, and Dynamic Manufacturing Networks.
The amount of information at hand would consent a fine-grained monitoring, mining, and decision support for business processes, stemming from the joint observation of business-related objects in the real world. However, the main focus of process and data analysis in Business Process Management (BPM) still lies at a high level of abstraction, such as activities’ status, and is based on digital-to-digital information, such as information systems’ data- and activity-centric logs. Furthermore, a limited investigation from the BPM community has been evinced towards the physical-to-digital bridge so far. Such a bridge would be naturally provided by rethought information systems, where the knowledge extracted from real-world objects would best depict the contingencies and the context in which business processes are carried out. At the same time, awareness of physical reality for undertaken actions would allow for a better control over the interaction that the Business Process Management Systems (BPMSs) have with the real world.
The objective of the RW-BPMS workshop is therefore to attract novel research and industry approaches investigating the connection of business processes with real-world objects monitoring. Conceptual, technical and application-oriented contributions are pursued within the scope of this theme.
Service Science is an emerging academic discipline that is highly relevant to IS scholars. Information systems enable the creation of many services (e.g. cloud based storage), while simultaneously representing the context in which many services are co-created (e.g. IT consulting).
However, despite substantial efforts within the field, researchers and practitioners still suffer from a lack of theory-based knowledge for engineering and managing services, and to leverage IS for service innovation. At the same time, service, a concept that can be considered the foundation of all economic exchange (e.g. Vargo and Lusch, 2004), now challenges previously established concepts in the IS discipline, such as the separation between corporate IS and consumer IS, or internal IS and external services. Service-focused research in IS needs to create and refine concepts, models, methods, and systems to reflect these developments. We call upon the next generation of service scholars that started their academic careers in the last 5 years to address the emerging challenges through fresh thinking.
