Abstract
This volume contains selected research in progress papers at DESRIST 2017 – the 12th International Conference on Design Science Research in Information Systems and Technology held during May 30 – June 1, 2017, at Karlsruhe, Germany. This year’s DESRIST conference continues the tradition of advancing and broadening design research within the information systems discipline. DESRIST brings together researchers and practitioners engaged in all aspects of Design Science Research (DSR), with a special emphasis on nurturing the symbiotic relationship between Design Science researchers and practitioners. As in previous years, scholars and design practitioners from various areas, such as information systems, business & operations research, computer science, and industrial design come together to discuss both challenges and opportunities of Design Science and to solve design problems through the innovative use of information technology and applications. The outputs of DESRIST, new and innovative constructs, models, methods, processes, and systems, provide the basis for novel solutions to design problems in many fields. The conference further builds on the foundation of eleven prior highly successful international conferences held in Claremont, Pasadena, Atlanta, Philadelphia, St. Gallen, Milwaukee, Las Vegas, Helsinki, Miami, Dublin, and St. Johns. The 12th DESRIST conference has the theme “Designing the Digital Transformation” and emphasizes the contemporary challenge of transforming businesses and society using information technologies. The rapid digital transformation of businesses and society creates new challenges and opportunities for Information Systems (IS) research with a strong focus on design, which relates to manifold application areas of IS research. This year`s DESRIST, therefore, introduces selected themes in order to account for and further stimulate DSR in such areas. Specifically, DESRIST features seven themes: DSR in business process management, DSR in human computer interaction, DSR in data science & business analytics, DSR in service science, methodological contributions, domain-specific DSR applications, and emerging themes and new ideas. In total, we received 135 submissions (66 full research papers, 19 prototypes and products, and 50 research-in-progress papers) to the conference for review. Each research paper was reviewed by a minimum of two referees. In this proceedings appear 21 research in progress papers, with an acceptance rate of 42%. The full research paper and descriptions of prototypes and products are published in the separate Springer LNCS proceedings. We would like to thank all authors who submitted their papers to DESRIST 2017. We trust that the readers will find them as interesting and informative as we did. We would like to thank all members of the Program Committee as well as the many additional reviewers who took the time to provide detailed and constructive critiques for the authors. We are grateful for the support of many colleagues who took responsibility in Chair positions, such as the Doctoral Consortium Chairs, the Industry Track Chairs, the Product and Prototype Chairs, and the Local Arrangement Chairs, as well as for the great dedication of the many volunteers, whose efforts were instrumental to bring about another successful DESRIST conference. Our special thanks go to Dr. Stefan Morana who managed the operational review and publication process in his role as Proceedings Chair. Furthermore, we thank the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) and the sponsoring organizations, in particular SAP, Bosch, IBM, Senacor, as well as the Cyberforum / Digital Innovation Center for their support. We believe the papers in these proceedings provide many interesting and valuable insights into the theory and practice of DSR. They open up new and exciting possibilities for future research in the discipline.
