Abstract

The potential benefits of pursuing an intentional community-wide development of a research agenda for IT are discussed. Motivation to undertake this task arises from the continuing evolution of IT as a distinct discipline. There is an opportunity to mark progress by developing an IT research agenda that has broad involvement from the community. Alternative formats for an agenda are discussed and potential research topic areas are proposed, drawing upon prior contributions. To help inform the discussion, 24 other research agendas are profiled, providing useful examples of agenda-development processes and alternative formats for the recommended IT research agenda.
