IBIS: Call for Journal Articles, No.2, 2006

Call for Articles for the IBIS Journal
- Interoperability in Business Information Systems -


Since the first issue of the IBIS journal has been published, we have had more than thousand downloads of 
the first issue (http://www.ibis-journal.net) and a lot of motivating feedback. The editors would like to thank the 
community for expressing their support. Now, we would like to encourage  to submit articles for inclusion in 
the next issue of the International Journal of Interoperability in Business Information Systems.

We are interested in both theoretical and practical research. We are also interested in case studies and 
results of recently finished research projects. Although our focus is on research results, we also accept a 
small amount of practical articles. Contributions should be original and unpublished and are required to have 
a high quality.

Topics of the journal include, but are not limited to:
    * Integration of business information systems
    * Enterprise modeling for Interoperability
    * Interoperability architectures and frameworks
    * Interoperability of business standards
    * Intelligent mediators
    * Coupling of information systems
    * Interoperability of classification systems
    * (Semi-)Automatic transformation of standards
    * Interoperability of (meta) models
    * Semantic integration concepts
    * Interoperability between domain specific standards
    * Semantic analysis of structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data
    * Interoperability of catalog based information systems
    * Cooperation in heterogeneous information systems
    * Ontology matching, merging and aligning
    * Semantic combination of heterogeneous standards
    * Ontology- and model management
    * Interoperability of sector specific systems
