ICIS http://icis2012.aisnet.org/ is the major annual international meeting of the Association for Information Systems (AIS), which has over 4,000 members representing universities in over 95 countries worldwide. It is the most prestigious gathering of academics and practitioners in the IS discipline, and provides a forum for networking and sharing of latest ideas and highest caliber scientific work among the IS professions. Each year, over 1,000 IS academic professions from around the world participate in the conference program, which includes about 60 sessions and 180 presentations, in addition to keynotes, CIO panels, and research panels. The Journal of Virtual Worlds Research (http://jvwresearch.org), following a successful workshop in Shanghai at ICIS 2011, will host a special face-2-face workshop on Augmented Reality. Background About AR:Journal web: http://www.jvwresearch.org Augmented Reality (for example: http://mashable.com/follow/topics/augmented-reality/) is one of the “hottest” topics in IT/IS. The rise of high-end mobile cameras, GPS, and devices with on-cloud computation allow for many new opportunities. Theoretical research in the field (see for example: http://www.ismar11.org/) is now being further developed into applications. Confirmed Speakers:Yesha Sivan, Jon Preston, Jeff Chastine, Dov Teeni Agenda:08:30–09:00 Breakfast & Welcome Call for papers:Given the exploratory purposes of this workshop, we invite well-articulated papers (2-3 pages including visuals) with one-page bio and background of the author(s). We particularly seek experimental and forward-looking papers. We also welcome conceptual papers with theoretical flavor, as well as completed research papers or research-in-progress papers. Some of the submitted papers may be invited for fast-tracking to the Journal of Virtual Worlds Research. Suggested research topics include, but are not limited to (#x refers to the image in the JVWR web site): • Devices (See example #1, #4) How to Submit:Authors/Presenters: Send 2-3 page description with one-page bio and background to [email protected]. Deadlines: Submission by authors: Oct 19, 11:59 EST (New York time) How to Register:Please register soon, space is limited.
