Dear Gustaf Neumann,

Since your research interests seem to be related to the area of e-Business technology and its current applications, we would like to invite you to submit a paper to the 9th International Conference on e-Business (ICE-B-2012).

The areas of the conference are: 1. Applications 2. Enterprise Engineering 3. Mobility 4. Collaboration and e-Services 5. Technology Platforms 6. Sustainable e-Business 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 2012 is part of the International Joint Conference on e-Business and Telecommunications (ICETE 2012) that has 5 more conferences with very strong synergies between them, namely:

- DCNET: Int'l Conference on Data Communication Networking (http://www.dcnet.icete.org) - OPTICS: Int'l Conference on Optical Communication Systems (http://www.optics.icete.org) - SECRYPT: Int'l Conference on Security and Cryptography (http://www.secrypt.icete.org) - SIGMAP: Int'l Conf on Signal Processing and Multimedia Applications (http://www.sigmap.icete.org) - WINSYS: Int'l Conf on Wireless Information Networks and Systems (http://www.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 409 submissions, 12% were accepted as full papers, 16% were presented as short papers and 13% as posters.

The conference program features a number of Keynote Lectures to be delivered by distinguished world-class researchers, namely: - Venu Govindaraju, University at Buffalo, United States - Sushil Jajodia, George Mason University Fairfax, United States - Andreas Holzinger, Medical University Graz, Austria (list not yet complete) http://www.icete.org/KeynoteSpeakers.aspx

Submitted papers will be subject to a double-blind review process. All accepted papers (full, short and posters) will be published in the conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, on paper and on CD-ROM support. BHOE 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, revised versions of best papers presented at the conference will be considered for publication in either the Journal of Information Processing Systems (JIPS) or a special issue of the Journal of Networks (JNW).

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