Building upon past successes of the pre-ICIS HCI/MIS workshops as well
as the tremendous interest in broad HCI issues exhibited by MIS colleagues,
 the AIS SIGHCI will hold its sixth annual pre-ICIS HCI/MIS research
workshop prior to ICIS 2007 in Montréal, Canada on December 8, 2007.

WORKSHOP OBJECTIVE:

The objective of the workshop is to provide an open and constructive
discussion forum of important HCI research in Information Systems that
addresses the ways humans interact with information, technologies, and
tasks - especially in business, managerial, organizational, social and/or
cultural contexts. HCI in MIS is concerned with the macro level (versus
the micro level) of Human-Computer Interaction analysis.

KEYNOTE SPEAKER:

Professor Fred D. Davis, David D. Glass Chair in Information Systems,
Department Chair of Information Systems, Sam M. Walton College of
Business, University of Arkansas.

SPECIAL THEME PAPERS OF JAIS:

The best, completed research papers from the workshop will be fast-tracked
for publication consideration in the Journal of the Association for 
Information
Systems (JAIS) - http://jais.isworld.org.

SUBMISSION:

This year, the workshop will be accepting high quality research papers
(completed research or research-in-progress papers) and posters that
describe novel, early, and creative research ideas. The submissions
should not be currently under review elsewhere and the papers/posters
should have not appeared elsewhere.

Maximum length: Completed research papers, research-in-progress papers,
and posters must not exceed 14, 7, and 3 single-spaced pages, respectively.
The page limit includes all text, figures, and tables, but does not include 
the
cover page, abstract, keywords, and references.

File Formats: Only Word file formats will be accepted. All submissions
must be formatted for 8.5 x 11 inch paper (1 inch = 2.5 cm) and have
1 inch margins all around. Please use Times New Roman 12-point font
with single spacing for the body of the paper. The first page of the
manuscript should have a title, the type of the submission (complete
research, research in progress, or poster), total word count of the
submission, an abstract of 150 words or less, and a list of 5-6 keywords.

Submissions will undergo a double-blind review process. Authors should
agree to provide timely reviews of at most two other submissions, if
requested. Manuscripts should be in MS Word format and be submitted
as email attachments to the workshop program co-chairs (see below)
with the subject heading "HCI/MIS workshop submission." Authors can
use the body of the email as the cover letter for the submission and should
ensure that their identities do not appear in any part of the manuscript.
