II Workshop on Research in Information Systems and Technologies in Chile

WSTI-2015

16/October /2015 , Chillán , Chile

The challenges associated with the development and implementation of technologies and information systems in organizations are mainly technical and organizational issues. Research in these areas benefits from an integrated vision. The discipline of information systems and technology (IST) is committed to providing a central hub for the harmonious development of systems and organizations. Recently, a Collaboration Network in Information Systems and Technologies in Chile (RedSTI) has been established in order to provide a place for interaction among researchers in information systems and technologies. This network brings together university professors from various Chilean universities that belong to computer science, business and information systems departments.

The purpose of this workshop is to present both in-progress and completed research. We invite national and international researchers to submit their preliminary, in-progress, and completed research. Research topics includes (not exclusively):

• Adoption and Diffusion of Information Technology
• Business Intelligence, Analytics, & Knowledge Management
• Big Data, and Visualization
• e-Government
• e-Business and e-commerce
• Enterprise Systems
• Global and Cultural Issues in IS
