The ISSIP (http://www.issip.org/) is a non-profit organization co-founded by IBM, Cisco & HP to promote human-centered “smart” services for value and outcome. IBM and ISSIP promote and disseminate research and applications among academicians and professionals interested in theory, methodologies, and applications in major understanding of smart/wise service systems (cognitive, wisdom, cloud and fog computing, analytics, mobile, social, security, internet of things, digital transformation, service science, service innovation etc.). The awards also can encourage a cultural shift by scholars toward explicit recognition of their collaboration with industry practitioners and demonstrate the benefits of such interaction for scholarly research.
