Call For Papers, Workshops and Tutorials
IEEE First International Conference on Digital Information Management (ICDIM
2006)
December 06-08, 2006
Co-sponsored by IEEE
(http://www.icdim.org)

The International Conference on Digital Information Management is a
multidisciplinary conference on digital information management, science and
technology. The principal aim of this conference is to bring people in
academia, research laboratories and industry and offer a collaborative
platform to address the emerging issues and solutions in digital information
science and technology. The ICDIM intends to bridge the gap between
different areas of digital information management, science and technology.
This forum will address a large number of themes and issues. The conference
invites original research and industrial papers on the theory, design and
implementation of digital information systems, as well as proposals for
demonstrations, tutorials, workshops and industrial presentation.

We solicit original research and technical papers not published elsewhere.
The papers can be theoretical, practical and application oriented on the
themes and areas specified. The IEEE template of the papers is available at
http://www.icdim.org . The papers should not exceed 8 pages. Any supporting
materials such as data, proof etc should be sent as Appendix. Each
submission undergoes review by three referees on the basis of originality,
novelty, new methodology and innovativeness. Based on the recommendations of
the reviewers the papers will be accepted.  A best-paper award will be
presented at the conference. Accepted papers must be presented at the
conference by one of the authors. All the accepted papers will be published
by IEEE. All papers published in ICDIM 2006 Proceedings will be completely
indexed by IEEEXplore.
Extended versions of the papers will appear in a special issue of the
Journal of Digital Information Management (JDIM).
