CRIS 2006
8th International Conference on Current Research Information Systems
May 11-13th, 2006 in Bergen, Norway
Call for Participation
euroCRIS organises conferences relating to Research Information Systems. Having started in Bergen (Norway) in 1991 the CRIS Conference Series is returning to its origin. The conference will take place at the world heritage monument Bryggen, the former Hanse-quarter at Bergen. The title is:
Enabling interaction and quality: Beyond the Hanseatic League!
CRIS is aimed at promoting scientific discussion and information exchange on research information systems. CRIS 2006 continues the tradition of encouraging the sharing of experiences among developers, producers and users of research information systems. CRIS 2006 is further intended to foster discussion on novel approaches and ideas on international dialogue, pan-European cooperation, and the transfer and use of information related to CRIS.
TOPICS

* INTERACTION
Interoperation of systems and people, interaction of CRIS users with systems, integration of different CRIS-related inputs, portals and information access (including Open Access), data warehouse construction, new support paradigms such as GRIDs
