The Special Session on Digital Transformation (Digitrans-2018) will be held at the 24th International Conference on Information and Software Technologies (ICIST) scheduled on the 4-6 October, 2018 in Vilnius, Lithuania.
SCOPE
Two very important trends are the digital era and the organizational shift towards projects. We are starting to live in a projectized and digitalized world. The adaptation of organizations (e.g. companies, but also Higher Education Institutions ‐ HEI), processes, methods & tools, and of technologies are forcing a change process with a tremendous pace on people, companies and nations. In addition to the technical, economic and socio‐economic tasks, the digital transformation also requires new forms of management. Due to disruptive elements and jump innovations, traditional forms of organization are often overstrained. Therefore, the working form of digital transformation is the project. The session aims to bring together computer scientists, digital transformation experts and engineers from related fields, both from academia and industry.
