CALL FOR PAPERS
===============================================================================

We welcome submissions for the 30th International Conference on Information
Systems Development (ISD), which will be hosted by Babeș-Bolyai University,
the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration, in Cluj-Napoca, Romania.

The conference promotes research of methodological and technological issues
and ways in which the IS developers and operators are transforming organizations
and society through information systems.

This year, the conference focuses on how Artificial Intelligence can empower
Information Systems and how this facilitates or impacts digital transformation
in various aspects e.g. organizational structures, enterprise architectures,
decision-making, business processes, business-IT alignment.

THEME: AI FOR IS DEVELOPMENT AND OPERATIONS

We invite you to join us at this conference and to help shape the
Information Systems development methods and technologies of the future!
