CALL FOR PAPERS - EATIS 2007 - http://www.deei.fct.ualg.pt/eatis
Euro American
Conference on Telematics and Information Systems
May 14-17,
2007 | Universidade do Algarve, Faro - PORTUGAL
first deadline:
December 17, 2006
****************************************************************************
EATIS 2007
aims primarily at the production of scientific work around
"Informaticity" (the usage of informatics in
everyday life). Submitted papers hopefully should deal
with issues about transversal services and applications
such as digital convergence for instance. They should
be oriented towards community and cultural enhancement,
to build knowledge and skills for work, to improve work
quality, citizenship participation as well as consumer
choice.
In particular,
EATIS 2007 encourages the use of Information System (IS)
and Information and Communication Technologies (ICT),
allowing citizens a better participation at various levels
of government (local, regional, national and international),
as well as the ethics component in the use of services
and technologies related to IS and ICT.

EATIS permanent
institutional goal is to actively promote academic collaboration
between European and American continents universities,
thus providing state-of-the-art discussions that can potentially
provide key research directions to young researchers and
new research groups.
EATIS network
of professors and researchers in Computer Science is composed
by 81 members, affiliated to 65 universities or research
institutions, spread to 31 countries, around all continents.
This is the basis of the EATIS Program Committee.
The conference
will be done in technical cooperation with Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), IEEE Computer
Society, Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), and
the Brazilian Computer Society (SBC).
