* Conference Background and Goals
The IADIS Health Informatics 2005 conference addresses several themes
within the Health Informatics area. This conference has a unique concept:
it is a scientific conference hosted virtually. This means that the
quality of a scientific conference (with the peer reviewed submissions,
the publication in a book and CD with ISBN, the possibility of best papers
being considered for publication as extended versions in journals) comes
together with the benefit of being at your office or at home and taking
part in it at any time during its three week duration. You choose which
sessions to attend from the conference themes offered and you can tailor
your best schedule.

* Format of the Conference
The conference will comprise invited talks and oral presentations. The
proceedings of the conference will be published in the form of a book. The
best paper authors will be invited to publish extended versions of their
papers in selected Journals.

* Types of Submissions
Full and Short Papers, Posters/Demonstrations, Tutorials, Panels and
Doctoral Consortium. All submissions are subject to a blind refereeing
process.
