The Hawaii International Conference on System Services (HICSS) is an annual conference that unites top scholars, researchers, and professionals in the field of system sciences. The conference ranks extraordinarily high amongst several Information Systems and Management Information Systems conferences. Beginning in 1968, HICSS is one of the longest-standing scientific conferences across the world. The prestigious reputation of HICSS is up-kept by its particularly rigorous double-blind peer review process for accepted research papers.
Dr. Derrick L. Cogburn, Dr. Nanette S. Levinson, and Dr. Filippo Trevisan, Deputy Director of of the Institute on Disability and Public Policy (IDPP), share leadership roles in the minitrack on Social Media: Culture, Identity, and Inclusion. While Dr. Trevisan and Dr. Nanette did not attend HICSS-57 in person, their contributions were instrumental in steering the minitrack towards success.
At HICSS-57, Dr. Cogburn and his team showcased their research in multiple minitracks. Contributors to the various minitracks also include American University faculty members Dr. Francis Armour, Assistant Professor of Information Technology and Analytics and Dr. J. Alberto Espinosa, Professor Information Technology and Analytics in the Kogod School of Business.
