Scope -----

"Tradition meets Innovation" is the promising motto of the 9th I2CS, dedicated to a bundle of interesting aspects around modern community systems. Discuss state of the art in an atmosphere of grand tradition: In Jena, Goethe, Schiller, Hegel, and Fichte left their mark on intel- lectual life, Abbe, Zeiss and Schott laid the foundations for economic prosperity. Germany's "Science City 2008" will provide an excellent venue for I2CS's conference and workshop topics.

Due to the rapid evolution of web technologies and rich mobile devices ICT support for communities is possible on next quality level. Trying to achieve this, we challenge new research questions in a wide range of connected fields. In search of innovative solutions multi-discipli- nary collaboration among researchers and industry partners is essential. Hence, the goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers, experts, and practitioners from various areas related to novel Internet Community Systems.

Topics ------

The selection of I2CS topics encompasses aspects of Internet Community Systems: foundations, technology, applications and socializations. The topics include, but are not limited to original work in the following areas:

A) Foundations - Theories, models, algorithms for communities ---------------------------------------------------------- - Distributed algorithms and simulation models - Game theory, graph theory and cost models - Innovative communication protocols - Self organization and self stabilization - Security and privacy protection - Interoperability and IT-governance

B) Technology - Distributed architectures and frameworks ----------------------------------------------------- - Service-oriented architectures for communities - Peer-to-peer and grid architectures - Distributed community middleware for Web x.0 - Software agents for community support - Adaptive cooperative information systems - Community management in ad-hoc environments - Information retrieval and distributed ontologies

C) Applications and socialization - Communities on the move -------------------------------------------------------- - Mobile Internet applications' experiences - Context and location awareness - Personalization of components and tools - Personal social networks and user behavior - Social and business aspects of user generated content - Expert profiles, collaborative filtering and matching - Domain specific languages for semantic design

Submissions -----------

We solicit submissions of unpublished papers presenting research results, industrial experiences and applications, as well as de- tailed specifications of open problems. Electronic submission is required. Full papers of no more than 10 pages written in English should be submitted as PDF files using the EasyChair conference system accessible via
