[EGOV LIST] CFP- IFIP WG8.6: Digital Adoption, Diffusion and Innovation - Indonesia

[Marijn Janssen via eGov-list]

IFIP WG8.6 Working Conference:
Digital Adoption, Diffusion and Innovation in the Augmented and Digital Society


The physical and real world are increasingly blending, with various technologies augmenting our real world. The objective of the IFIP WG8.6 group is to foster understanding and enhance research in practice, methods, and techniques in the transfer and diffusion of information technology during and after the development process. Since its inception, the IFIP WG8.6 group has focused on the transfer, diffusion, and implementation of Information Technology at the individual, organizational, and societal levels and welcomes all types of research methods.

The increasing interconnection of digital technologies, enabling extensive data collection, processing, and utilization have diverse positive and negative impacts. It compels all types of organizations to innovate, leverage, and manage the risks of new IT solutions. Organisational dynamics, management and decision-making practices, professional practices, accounting and anti-corruption efforts are evolving under this pressure. The adoption and diffusion of next-generation digital technologies at various levels present numerous research challenges. Societal, organizational, and individual needs and benefits should guide the shaping of an augmented and digital society and research has a significant role to play in this regard.


This working conference will focus on understanding the transfer, diffusion, and adoption of emerging digital technologies and systems (e.g., metaverse, augmented/virtual reality, blockchain, artificial intelligence, Generative AI, LLMs, Internet of Things, social media among other digital technologies), These technologies are emerging at different paces and have significant impact on individuals, organisations and society. Regulations, business practices, professions and markets are changing, and financial and digital literacy are becoming more important. Public values such as inclusion, fraud prevention, fairness, transparency, and accountability should influence the adoption and use of these technologies and the ways our society will be shaped.

The conference encourages research in the broad field of transfer, innovation, adoption, and diffusion of IT. The transfer and diffusion of IT innovations involves numerous stakeholders who need to navigate the inherent diversity, complexity, and uncertainty of the digital landscape. There is a need for methods, theories, and practices to understand and shape our digital society. More diverse sources of data, information, and knowledge must converge to create new value in practice and theoretical insight.

The conference aims to be a forum for academics, practitioners, and doctoral students to exchange ideas and collaborate with members of the IFIP community on the topic of IT transfer, diffusion, and innovation. Contributions are within the scope of the IFIP 8.6 Working Group, as well as those addressing the conference theme. Topics may include, but are not limited to:


  *   Appropriation of emerging technologies including smart and mobile devices, cloud computing, AI, Blockchain, data analytics, drones in homes, cars and transportation systems, government, cities and different organisations.
  *   Diffusion, transfer, and implementation of both mature and immature smart information technologies and systems in organizations and among organizations, sectors, and countries.
  *   Adoption of Virtual worlds, metaverse, gamification, Internet of Things (IoT) in different organisations, sectors, professions and countries.
  *   Transfer of technology to be incorporated in systems for customers and clients and in different developing and developed countries.
  *   Development of frameworks, models, and terminology for information technology transfer and diffusion in different contexts and different types of technology.
  *   Identification of risk factors and barriers to success in emerging technology adoption and strategies for addressing them.
  *   Conditions or scenarios under which specific transfer and diffusion techniques are applicable.
  *   Methods to evaluate the efficiency, effectiveness, and value of technology transfer programs and approaches, including time and effort estimators and metrics.
  *   Organization design and process issues related to technology transfer and diffusion.
  *   Case studies of technology transfer and diffusion to provide instances to guide research, development, and practice.
  *   Standards and intellectual property issues that inhibit or facilitate information technology transfer.
  *   Ethics in the adoption of emerging technologies including AI, Internet of Things, Big Data Analytics, wearables and mobile technology.
