The 55th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences Mini-track on
Human-centricity in a Sustainable Digital Economy http://hicss.hawaii.edu | HICSS-55 | January 4 – 7, 2022 | Hyatt Regency Maui, Hawaii, USA Paper Submission Deadline: June 15, 2021 | 11:59 pm HST The internet and the global digital transformation have changed many different aspects of our lives. Not only the economies and the societies but also people’s personal lives have been influenced by this new and ever-emerging era of our history. While the digital age has made it possible to provide novel services and solutions for the end-users, it has also caused serious concerns in different individual and societal levels, such as issues regarding online privacy, algorithmic bias, fairness and accountability of information systems, transparency, governance, and explainability of information systems, end-user manipulations, fake news, traceability, etc. The development of human-centric and end-user empowering information systems can be one approach towards “digital sustainability” since they enable individuals to influence how their data is used, by whom, and for which purpose. Many novel and personalized services are emerging in this direction, which make the digital economy sustainable, i.e. a positive place that focuses on human users. This minitrack aims to attract research that advances the understanding of human-centricity and end-user empowerment in a sustainable digital economy. As the transformation is multidimensional in nature, the minitrack adopts an interdisciplinary perspective, which considers human-centricity and end-user empowerment across application domains (e.g. software development, digital commerce, healthcare, administration, mobile apps, social media, and online services) and disciplines (e.g. economics, computer science, sociology). Among the relevant topics are: · Characteristics and design of sustainable human-centric information systems · Evaluation of existing information systems from a human-centric perspective · Co-creation and co-production of human-centric sustainable information systems · Analysis and design of technologies (e.g. AI, Blockchain) that empower end-users · Design of human-centric end-user agents, AI and machine learning · Fairness, transparency, accountability and controllability of information systems · Legal or economic aspects of human-centricity in information systems · Identity, privacy and consent management systems · Business value of human-centric and/or user empowered solutions · Sociotechnical studies of human-centricity in information systems · Opportunities and challenges of digital behavior change, habit formation, and digital addiction · Digital nudging for increasing social or ecological responsibilities · Ethical concerns regarding human-centricity and/or sustainability · COVID-19’s impact on human-centricity or sustainability of information systems Publication of Papers HICSS is the #1 Information Systems conference in terms of citations as recorded by Google Scholar. Presented papers will be included in the Proceedings of HICSS-55. Selected papers will be invited for a fast-track in Electronic Markets – The International Journal on Networked Business. A Special Issue on “Human-centricity in a Sustainable Digital Economy” at Electronic Markets is planned.
