This book contains the refereed proceedings of the 5th Scandinavian
Conference on Information Systems, SCIS 2014, held in Ringsted,
Denmark, in August 2014. The theme for this book as well as for the
conference is "Designing Human Technologies." The theme combines
the interplay of people with technology-a classic theme in
Scandinavian information systems research-with a growing interest
within the IS research field in design and design science research.
The nine papers accepted for SCIS 2014 were selected from 22
submissions.
It. is well known that t.he introduction of a new technology in one
organization not always produces the intended benefits (Levine,
1994). In many cases, either the receivers do not reach the
intended level of use or simply the technology is rejected because
it does not match with the expectations (true or false) and the
accepted psychological effort to use it. The case of formal methods
is a paradigmatic example of continual failures. The published
cases with problems or failures only constitute the visible part of
a large iceberg of adoption cases. It. is difficult to get
companies to openly express the problems they had; however, from
the experience of the author, failure cases are very common and
they include any type of company. Many reasons to explain the
failures (and in some cases the successes) could be postulated;
however, the experiences are not structured enough and it is
difficult to extract from them useful guidelines for avoiding
future problems. Generally speaking, there is a trend to find the
root of the problems in the technol ogy itself and in its adequacy
with the preexistent technological context. Technocratic technology
transfer models describe the problems in terms of these aspects.
Although it is true that those factors limit the probability of
success, there is another source of explanations linked to the
individuals and working teams and how they perceive the technology.

The International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) is a
non-profit umbrella organization for national societies working in
the field of information processing. It was founded in 1960 under
the auspices of UNESCO. It is organized into several technical
committees. This book represents the proceedings of the 2006
conference of technical committee 8 (TC8), which covers the field
of information systems. This conference formed part of IFIP's World
Computer Congress in Chile. The occasion celebrated the 30th
anniversary of IFIP TC8 by looking at the past, present and future
of information systems. The proceedings reflect not only the
breadth and depth of the work of TC8, but also the international
nature of the group, with authors from 18 countries being
represented in the 21 papers (including two invited papers) and 2
panels. All submissions were rigorously refereed by at least two
reviewers and an associate editor and following the review and
resubmission process nearly 50% of submissions were accepted. This
paper introduces the papers and panels presented at the conference
and published in this volume. It is never straightforward to
classify a set of papers but we have made an attempt and this
classification is also reflected in the sessions of the conference
itself. The classification for the papers is as follows: the world
of information systems - early pioneers; developing improved
information systems; information systems in their domains of
application; the discipline of information systems; issues of
production; IT impacts on the organization; tools and modeling and
new directions.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 2010 Joint
International Working C- ference of the International Federation
for Information Processing Working Groups 8.2 and 8.6. Both working
groups are part of IFIP Technical Committee 8, the tech- cal
committee addressing the field of Information Systems. IFIP WG 8.2,
the Inter- tion of Information Systems and Organizations, was
established in 1977. IFIP WG 8.6, Diffusion, Transfer and
Implementation of Information Technology, was est- lished in 1994.
In accordance with their respective themes, both IFIP WG 8.2 and
IFIP WG 8.6 have long had an interest in the human impact of
information systems. In December 1998, they held a joint working
conference in Helsinki, Finland, on the theme "Inf- mation Systems:
Current Issues and Future Challenges." The two working groups'
joint interest in and collaboration on research concerning the
human side of IS is c- tinued and extended through this joint
working conference, held on the campus of Curtin University of
Technology, from March 30 to April 1, 2010, in Perth, Western
Australia. This conference, "Human Benefit Through the Diffusion of
Information Systems Design Science Research," combines the
traditional themes of the two working groups with the growing
interest within the IS research field in the area of design science
research.
