The International Conference on Electronic Commerce (ICEC) is a forum for the exchange of new ideas related to emerging technologies and managerial practices in electronic commerce, IT services and mobile business. ICEC attracts global leaders in research from industry and academia. It recently has been held in Minneapolis (2007), Innsbruck (2008), Taipei (2009), Honolulu (2010), and Liverpool (2011). ICEC 2012 in Singapore will feature: refereed paper presentations on leading research issues; invited research sessions and keynote presentations; and panels on emerging issues that bring academic and industry participants together in dialogue. Because of ICEC's proximity to the vibrant international business and high-tech setting of Singapore, we expect to have involvement from business, technology and public policy experts.
This ICEC has an exciting theme: "Competing on Real-Time Data Analytics: Connecting the Virtual and Physical Worlds of Social Commerce." We encourage development and presentation of research on real-time data analytics in the context of social commerce, where there are many applications. They range from delivery of location-based services in mobile devices, to online booking systems in travel and hospitality management, to risk management systems in financial services, to e-gaming. We hope to make a unique data set available to researchers interested in using it for research for ICEC 2012. We will host special tracks on the development of research on real-time data analytics in social commerce related to our research at the Living Analytics Research Center.
In addition to data analytics in social commerce, ICEC 2012 seeks submissions on topics that include but are not limited to: B2B/B2C e-commerce, cloud computing and IT services, digital business models, data mining and recommender systems, e-government, auctions and markets, emerging IT, information privacy, Internet economics, Internet gaming, legal issues in e-commerce, location-based systems, mobile and pervasive commerce, Internet service pricing, recommender systems, secure commerce, service science, service innovations, smart grids, social networking, sponsored advertising, text and Web mining -- and many others.
All accepted papers will be published in the ACM digital library within its International Conference Proceedings Series under ISBN 978-1-4503-1197-7.
*Submission Instructions for full length papers:
Submissions must be original and must not have been submitted for publication elsewhere. Articles should be limited to 8 pages in length and follow the ACM ICPS guidelines for formatting (http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates). Articles exceeding the page limit or not formatted according to the Proceedings template will not be reviewed. Articles should be submitted via the online submission system (http://icec2012.confmaster.net/) as PDF documents (other formats will not be accepted).
*An Option: Inclusion of Abstract Only in Conference Proceedings
In addition to the usual scientific proceedings submissions, authors may submit full working papers that are under review or nearly ready for journal review without having the full paper included in the proceedings. Submissions will be reviewed and considered for presentation at the conference. The authors may choose, at their option, to publish only a one-page abstract in the proceedings, with a URL that points to the full paper, as the authors deem appropriate. Open access is preferred, but not required.
