Call For Papers - CFP

Since 1999 the ACM Special Interest Group on Electronic Commerce (SIGECOM) has sponsored

the leading scientific conference on advances in theory, systems, and applications for electronic

commerce. The Tenth ACM Conference on Electronic Commerce (EC'09) will feature invited speakers,

paper presentations, workshops, and tutorials covering all areas of electronic commerce. The

natural focus of the conference is on computer science issues, but the conference is interdisciplinary

in nature.

The conference will be held from Monday July 6 through Friday July 10 in the Frances C. Arrillaga

Alumni Center at Stanford University, Palo Alto, Calfornia. Tutorials and workshops will be held on

Monday July 6th and Tuesday July 7th, 2009. Accepted technical papers and invited talks will be

presented from Wednesday July 8th through Friday July 10th, 2009. This conference is co-located with

the TARK XII conference (Theoretical Aspects of Rationality and Knowledge) at Stanford on July 6-8,

2009.
