Dear Gustaf Neumann,

We would like to draw your attention to the International Conference on e-Business (ICE-B 2011), which has currently an open call for papers. 

The areas of the current conference are: (i) Applications; (ii) Enterprise Engineering; (iii) Mobility; (iv) Collaboration and e-Services; (v) Technology Platforms, and we look forward to receiving submissions (both research-driven and of a more practical nature) that reflect innovative results in the mentioned areas.

ICE-B 2011 is part of the International Joint Conference on e-Business and Telecommunications (ICETE 2011) that has 5 more conferences with very strong synergies between them, namely:

- DCNET: Int'l Conference on Data Communication Networking (http://dcnet.icete.org)
- OPTICS: Int'l Conference on Optical Communication Systems (http://optics.icete.org)
- SECRYPT: Int'l Conference on Security and Cryptography (http://secrypt.icete.org)
- SIGMAP: Int'l Conf on Signal Processing and Multimedia Applications (http://sigmap.icete.org)
- WINSYS: Int'l Conf on Wireless Information Networks and Systems (http://winsys.icete.org)

These six concurrent conferences are held in parallel and registration to one warrants delegates to attend all six.

ICETE is interested in promoting high quality research as it can be confirmed by last year acceptance rates, where from 422 submissions, 11% were accepted as full papers, 18% were presented as short papers and 14% as posters. 

Submitted papers will be subject to a double-blind review process. All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, on paper and on CD-ROM support.

A short list of presented papers will be selected so that revised and extended versions of these papers will be published by Springer-Verlag in a CCIS Series book.

Additionally, a short list of papers presented at the conference, will also be selected for publication in the CEPIS UPGRADE Journal and in the REICIS Journal. 

The proceedings will be submitted for indexation by Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index, INSPEC, DBLP and EI.
Best paper awards will be bestowed at the conference closing session.
All papers presented at the conference venue will be available at the SciTePress Digital Library (http://www.scitepress.org/DigitalLibrary/).

In addition to these six conferences, ICETE will also include some small events (workshops), that will provide a more interactive and focused platform for presenting and discussing new and emerging ideas. 

WORKSHOP:
Regular Paper Submission Deadline: March 14, 2011
