--------------------------------------------------------------------------
ISCRAM conferences present the latest findings from academia and the field on the design, development, implementation, use and evaluation of information systems in the domain of crisis management and response, through a unique program of academic research, practitioner cases and technology demonstrations, with plenty of opportunity for discussion and social events.
The 7th edition of the annual international ISCRAM Conference is back in the USA, and takes place in beautiful Seattle next May.
The theme for ISCRAM2010 is Defining Crisis Management 3.0. Our aim is to look forward at the conference and consider how our rapidly changing technologies may change the way that we respond to crises in our ever more interconnected world.
As always the conference will be multidisciplinary drawing together perspectives from across all socio-technological domains. Human behaviors are as important to us as the technologies that enable us to share information and situation assessments quickly and in increasing volumes.
While we particularly solicit papers emphasizing the conference theme, we welcome papers covering all aspects of information systems for crisis response and management.
