The International Conference on e-Business, ICE-B 2013, aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners who are interested in e-Business technology and its current applications. The mentioned technology relates not only to more low-level technological issues, such as technology platforms and web services, but also to some higher-level issues, such as context awareness and enterprise models, and also the peculiarities of different possible applications of such technology. These are all areas of theoretical and practical importance within the broad scope of e-Business, whose growing importance can be seen from the increasing interest of the IT research community.
The areas of the current conference are: (i) e-Business applications; (ii) Enterprise engineering; (iii) Mobility; (iv) Business collaboration and e-Services; (v) Technology platforms, and we look forward to receiving submissions (both research-driven and of a more practical nature) that reflect innovative results in the mentioned areas.
Authors are encouraged to submit their work on technology-driven enterprise solutions (with a stress on the telecommunication technology), which can either represent a more engineering-related contribution or be more business application-oriented. Papers describing new (software development) methods or technological IT solutions, as well as papers introducing tools or presenting advanced prototypes and general survey papers indicating future directions are also encouraged - papers describing original work are invited in any of the areas and sub-areas listed below.
Acceptance will be based on quality, relevance and originality. Both full research reports and work-in-progress reports are welcome. There will be both oral and poster sessions. The best papers will be selected to appear in a book to be published by Springer-Verlag.
Special sessions, case studies and tutorials dedicated to technical/scientific topics related to the main conference are also envisaged: researchers interested in organizing a special session or holding a tutorial, or companies interested in presenting their products/methodologies, are invited to contact the conference secretariat.
KEYNOTE SPEAKERS
ICETE 2013 will have several invited keynote speakers, who are internationally recognized experts in their areas. Their names are not yet confirmed.
