International Conference on Business Innovation and Information Technology

DCU is proud to host the International Conference on Business Innovation and Information Technology

The new and unique International Conference on Business Innovation and Information Technology aims to provide a premier forum for the presentation and discussion of business innovations associated with Information Technology (IT). We invite contributions from industry and academia as well as encourage postgraduate researchers to submit their work.

Submissions may be any of the following:
- research paper
- short paper
- experience report

Contributions must be submitted here.

Held in Dublin, Ireland on 24th and 25th of January 2008, the conference focuses on real-world business applications and innovations associated with information technology. Therefore, contributions should highlight the benefits and invitations driven by information technology in organisations. The idea of the conference is to provide a forum and platform for both researchers and practitioners to exchange knowledge and ideas and learn from each other.

Practitioners and researchers present findings and experience. In addition to the official program, there is plenty of opportunity for informal discussions and networking.

Contributions are selected on the basis of abstracts. Abstracts will be evaluated for originality, significance and contribution. All authors of accepted contributions are expected to present at the conference. All accepted and presented contributions will be invited to submit a full paper, which will be published in the conference proceedings after the conference.

Topics may include, but are not limited to:
- Innovative Business Models and E-Commerce Solutions
- Regulatory and Privacy Issues
- E-Government
- Information Systems and Business Processes
- System Development and Software Engineering
- Advanced Information Technologies

It is planned to publish in the Springer Series “Lecture Notes in Business Information Systems (LNBIP)”. As accepted papers are published in the conference proceedings, contributions must not have been previously published or submitted for publication elsewhere.
