TRACK COVERAGE
New technology is emerging at an unprecendented rate. Tasks that were
not feasible before are becoming trivial. Today, we can communicate
with anybody at any place at any time. New software products are being
developed almost everyday to assist decision making at different
managerial levels. With the rapid changes in technology and software,
analysts are beginning to provide support to high level executives like,
the Board of Directors, the President, the Congress, Directors and the
CEOs. With the advent of internet/intranet, decision support is taking
a completely different meaning,an on-line real time paperless support.
RECOMMENDED TOPICS
The Decision Support Technologies Track encourages the submission of
quality papers and panel and
workshop proposals dealing with (but not limited to) the following
topics:
Intranet/internet and its implications for Decision support
Data Warehousing and its usage in decision support
Cross-cultural issues in multinational decision support
Successes and failures in decision support applications
Data mining and its implications for decision support
Client/server architecture for decision support
Decision support in human resource management
Field/lab studies that provide innovative ideas
Intelligent information Support Systems
Emerging technologies and their implication for decision support
Full lengths papers (3-3500 words), research-in-progress proposals
(abstracts/summaries of 500-1000 words) and panel, workshop, tutorial or
symposium proposals (500-1000 words) invited.
For complete conference information, visit the IRMA Web Site at
http://www.irma-international.org
All submissions to be sent to:

Portugal.
SCOPE
The purpose of the 4th International Conference on Enterprise Information
Systems (ICEIS) is to bring together researchers, engineers and
practitioners interested in the advances and business applications of
information systems. Four simultaneous tracks will be held, covering
different aspects of Enterprise Information Systems Applications, including
Enterprise Database Technology, Systems Integration, Artificial
Intelligence, Decision Support Systems, Information Systems Analysis and
Specification, Internet Computing and Electronic Commerce.
ICEIS focuses on real world applications; therefore authors should highlight
the benefits of Information Technology for industry and services. Ideas on
how to solve business problems, using IT, will arise from the conference.
Papers describing advanced prototypes, systems, tools and techniques and
general survey papers indicating future directions are also encouraged.
Papers describing original work are invited in any of the areas listed
below. Accepted papers, presented at the conference by one of the authors,
will be published in the Proceedings of ICEIS. Acceptance will be based on
quality, relevance and originality. Both full research reports and
work-in-progress reports are welcome. There will be both oral and poster
sessions.
Special sessions, dedicated to case-studies and commercial presentations, as
well as tutorials dedicated to technical/scientific topics are also
envisaged: companies interested in presenting their products/methodologies
or researchers interested in holding a tutorial are invited to contact the
conference secretariat.
Information concerning the previous ICEIS editions (ICEIS'99, ICEIS 2000 and
ICEIS 2001) can be found at http://www.iceis.org,
http://www.est.ips.pt/iceis and http://www.staffs.ac.uk/iceis.
TOPIC AREAS / CONFERENCE TRACKS
Each of these topic areas is expanded below but the sub-topics list is not
exhaustive. Papers may address one or more of the listed sub-topics,
although authors should not feel limited by them. Unlisted but related
sub-topics are also acceptable, provided they fit in one of the following
main topic areas:
Databases and Information Systems Integration
Artificial Intelligence and Decision Support Systems
Information Systems Analysis and Specification
Internet Computing and Electronic Commerce
WORKSHOPS
ICEIS expects to host several workshops. If you would like to propose the
organization of a workshop to be held in conjunction with ICEIS 2002, please
contact the secretariat as soon as possible.
Keynote Speakers
ICEIS 2002 will have several invited keynote speakers, as in previous
editions. Their names are not yet confirmed.
TUTORIALS
ICEIS 2002 will have several tutorials, as in previous editions, to be
lectured the day before the conference opening. If you would like to propose
a tutorial for ICEIS 2002, please contact the secretariat as soon as
possible. Proposals should specify the topic and scope of the tutorial, the
background knowledge expected of the participants, and a short CV of the
instructor(s).
SUBMISSION OF PAPERS
Authors should submit a paper in English of about 10 A4 pages, up to 5.000
words, using the submission procedure indicated below. The programme
committee will review all papers and the contact author of each paper will
be notified of the result, by email. Each paper should clearly indicate the
nature of its technical/scientific contribution, and the problems, domains
or environments to which it is applicable. Authors must also indicate the
conference track to which the paper is submitted. The paper must be
carefully checked for correct grammar and spelling.
Paper submission procedure
A blind paper evaluation method will be used. To facilitate that, the
authors are kindly requested to produce and provide two separate files:
A papers front-page, with: the title, author(s), affiliation(s), contact
details, a list of keywords and an abstract.
The full paper, WITHOUT any reference to the authors. The manuscript must
contain, in its first page, the paper title, an abstract and a list of
keywords but NO NAMES OR CONTACT DETAILS WHATSOEVER are to be included in
any part of this file.
The contact author will then use the ICEIS web-based submission facility
available at the conference web site, to enter the contact information of
all paper authors plus the two files indicated in point 1, above. The
facility will automatically send a submission acknowledgement, by email, to
the author indicated as contact author.
The camera-ready format will be enforced only for accepted papers, but
authors are encouraged to use it also for paper submissions, in order to
reduce extra work later. Two templates are provided at the conference web
site: one for Latex and another for MS Word.
Due to space limitations in the Proceedings, the camera-ready version will
be limited to 8 (eight) pages for full papers, 6 (six) for short papers
(progress reports) and 4 (four) for poster presentations. If absolutely
needed, it will be allowed to increase the total number of pages, by 4 extra
pages. However, for each excess page the author will have to pay an
additional fee.
IMPORTANT DEADLINES
Full Paper Submission: 15 th October 2001
Workshops and Tutorials Submission: 15th November 2001
Author Notification: 17 th December 2001
Final Camera-Ready Submission and Registration: 14th January 2002

VENUE
Ciudad Real is in Castilla-La Mancha, the Don Quixotes land. It is not easy
to categorize Castilla-La Mancha, for it is a region of great variety and
complexity. On the one hand, there is the ruddy red earth, the windmills,
and simple whitewashed villages of the province of Ciudad Real (which
encompasses most of the area commonly called La Mancha). But there are also
the strangely sculpted cliffs of Cuenca and Albacete, the hilly woodlands of
Guadalajara and the dark mystery and ancient cultures of Toledo. Ciudad Real
is one hour by car from Toledo, fifty minutes by train from Madrid, seventy
minutes by train from Crdoba and two hours by train from Sevilla.
