ICCC/IFIP CONFERENCE on ELECTRONIC PUBLISHING ‘97
New Models and Opportunities
14-16 April 1997 - The University of Kent at Canterbury
Advance Programme and Registration Form
The ICCC (International Computer Communications Council) in
conjunction with IFIP (International Federation for Information
Processing) is pleased to announce a new conference on Electronic
Publishing to be held at the University of Kent at Canterbury,
14-16 April 1997. The title of this year’s conference is
Electronic Publishing - New Models and Opportunities. There will
be two parallel streams: one on technical issues; and the other
on socio-economic issues. There will also be plenary sessions
for papers and discussions that cover the whole of electronic
publishing.
A major underlying theme of the conference is the promotion of an
'exchange of experience' between the participants - especially
between academics researching in the area and publishers and
others with practical experience. All papers have been refereed
to ensure high quality.
We are particularly pleased to welcome our two invited speakers:
Professor David Brailsford, Department of Computer Science,
University of Nottingham, and Editor of the journal Electronic
Publishing; and Dr Andrew Odlyzko, AT&T Research Labs, and
author of Tragic Loss or Good Riddance - The Demise of
Traditional Scholarly Journals.
Professor Jack Meadows of Loughborough University, Chairman of
the Programme Committee, said of the conference "We intend that
this conference be a stimulating experience, with a great deal
of cross fertilisation of ideas. The combination of practical
experience and the latest discoveries of academic research will
undoubtedly lead to new models of academic and other publication
in the near future."
