Theme: Navigating the Accounting Future: The Impact of Emerging Technologies on the Digital Economy
Submission Deadline: January 15, 2025 (11:59 EST Time (early submission encouraged)
Background
The Journal of Information Systems (JIS) is the academic journal of the Accounting Information Systems (AIS) Section of the American Accounting Association. Its goal is to support, promote and advance knowledge of accounting information systems. The primary criterion for publication in JIS is contribution to the accounting information systems, accounting and auditing domains by the application or understanding of information technology theory and practice.
The JIS proudly announces its 4th International Conference, which is meant to encourage accounting information system researchers around the world, particularly from regions beyond the US, to submit their academic papers to JIS and receive the spotlight they deserve. This event aims to create a conceptual connection that transcends the geographical and intellectual boundaries of the participants and redefines what is possible in AIS research.
Conference Scope
We encourage submissions exploring adopting and adapting emerging technologies in accounting, auditing and accountability, focusing particularly on how these innovations can enhance transparency, efficiency, and reliability in accounting processes. The goal is to examine both the opportunities and challenges arising from the digitalization in this sector.
While our spotlight is AIS, we are also eager to embrace submissions related to digital technology and society. Digital transformation across the US, European countries, Southeast Asia and Africa offers various insights relevant to accounting, economics, and finance, particularly in digitization and digital transformation. We also seek papers that examine these developments and their impact on societal and community advancement in the increasingly digital world.
Please note that for fast-track consideration in the JIS, a clear match of the paper’s topic with the journal’s theme, vision, and mission is required.
Topics may include, but are not limited to:
Example:
1. Integration of AI and Machine Learning in AIS
2. Blockchain Revolution in Accounting, Auditing and Accountability
3. Robotic Process Automation (RPA) in Accounting, Auditing and Accountability
4. Cloud Computing in Accounting: Efficiency and Security Concerns
