Four simultaneous tracks will be held, covering : different aspects of Enterprise Computing, including Enterprise Database : Applications, Artificial Intelligence Applications and Decision Support : Systems, Systems Analysis and Specification, and Internet 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. There will be both oral and poster : sessions. : : Special sessions, dedicated to case-studies and commercial presentations, as : well as technical 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. : : We are building on the success achieved by ICEIS'99 with more than 350 : delegates, 8 VIPs and a book published by Kluwer Academic Publishers (in : press). Please check http://www.est.ips.pt/iceis where you will find more : information concerning ICEIS'99. : : --- TOPIC AREAS / CONFERENCE TRACKS --- : Each of these topic areas is expanded below but the list is not exhaustive. : Papers should address one or more of the listed topics, although authors : should not feel limited by them.
