** CALL FOR PAPERS AND POSTERS ***
29th International Conference on Information Systems Development (ISD2021)
Valencia, Spain
September 8-10, 2021
http://isd2021.webs.upv.es/

ISD is a venue for the exchange of innovative ideas and experiences in information systems development. Since 1988, ISD has provided a broad forum for reporting scientific progress on different challenges in the ISD field, to bridging the gaps between industry, academia and society. This is an affiliated conference of the Association for Information Systems (AIS) that has raised a good international reputation.

The ISD2021 theme is "Crossing boundaries between Development and Operations (DevOps) in Information Systems".

The conference focuses on influences among information systems, organizational structures, and processes and people from its conception to its operation. The conference promotes research of methodological and technological issues and ways in which the IS developers and operators are transforming organizations and society through information systems.

We invite submissions from researchers and practitioners in all topics on IS development and particularly aligned with the main theme of the conference.

FULL PAPER AND SHORT PAPER SUBMISSION::

We invite submissions of technical research papers describing original and unpublished results related to Information Systems development and/or operations including methodological, technological, economical or social aspects. The maximum length for full paper submissions is 12 pages, including references and appendices.

We also solicit short papers that present new ideas and visions. Papers on new ideas may describe new, non-conventional research positions or approaches of information systems development that depart from standard practice. We also welcome vision papers which will be on long-term challenges and opportunities in information systems development research that are outside of current mainstream topics of the field. “New Ideas/Vision” papers must not exceed 5 pages for the main text, including all figures, tables, appendices, etc. One more page containing only references is permitted.

Submissions will undergo a double-blind peer-review process. All papers must be submitted via EasyChair to any of the tracks for the conference: https://www.easychair.org/my/conference?conf=isd2021

The ISD Proceedings will be published in the AIS eLibrary. In addition, a selection of the best full papers (by invitation) will be published by Springer as a separate volume of the Lecture Notes in Information Systems and Organization series (indexed by Scopus, DBLP, etc.).


POSTER SUBMISSION:

Posters provide an opportunity for researchers and practitioners to present and discuss their most recent research achievements, practical experience, tools and challenges related to Information Systems development.We encourage submissions on early-stage and ongoing work, as well as on innovative applications of existing tools and ideas in practice. We also encourage submissions of EU project results or ideas for proposals, early work (e.g., starting PhD work), work on information systems development education.
Such submissions consist of two parts:
1. An extended abstract of the presented contribution. The length for poster submissions is 2 to 4 pages plus one page for references.
2. The actual poster to be posted and presented at the conference (only for accepted extended abstracts)

The main evaluation criteria for poster submissions are the quality of the proposed poster in terms of novelty, relevance for the ISD audience, technical soundness and its ability to stimulate discussions. Posters should be submitted via EasyChair: https://www.easychair.org/my/conference?conf=isd2021
