***************************************************************************************************


The RCIS conference series aims to bring together researchers, engineers, academics, and professionals of information science in a wide sense. This conference aims to facilitate knowledge sharing and dissemination of the latest advancements in key areas such as information systems and their engineering, user-oriented approaches, data and information management, enterprise management and engineering, domain-specific IS engineering, data science, information infrastructures, and reflective research and practice

The special theme of RCIS 2027 is “Information Systems for a Fragmented World: Resilience, Trust, and Digital Sovereignty”. In an increasingly fragmented world, shaped by geopolitical tensions, technological disruptions, evolving regulations, and growing societal divides, Information Systems play a critical role in supporting resilient, trustworthy, and sovereign digital ecosystems. The RCIS 2027 theme invites researchers and practitioners to explore how Information Systems can be designed, engineered, governed, and evolved to address these challenges. Particular attention is given to strengthening the resilience of digital infrastructures and socio-technical systems, fostering trust through transparency, accountability, security, and responsible AI, and advancing digital sovereignty by enabling meaningful control over data, technologies, and digital resources. RCIS 2027 encourages contributions that investigate these challenges from technical, organisational, human, and societal perspectives, promoting innovative approaches to building Information Systems that remain reliable, inclusive, and adaptable in an uncertain and rapidly changing world.
