    Every year, hundreds of tourism academics, industry representatives,

    government officials, students and entrepreneurs come together to share,

    discuss and challenge latest developments in information technology in the

    fields of travel, tourism and hospitality. With the theme "eTourism: Towards

    a Sustainable Digital Society" the ENTER 2019 conference will focus on

    exploring the ways in which technology and tourism together can make our

    society more sustainable. We call for latest research and case studies on

    concepts, applications, and business models to be shared in the conference.

    Organized by the International Federation for Information Technology and

    The conference brings together the research community and industry, and

    it is organized in three streams, namely industry track, destinations track,

    and research track. If you are representing tourism industry or destinations,

    please see suitable calls for presentations at https://www.enter2019.org.

    The conference also features six to eight world-class keynote speakers

    discussing the most pressing topics within eTourism.

    Location

    The 26th edition of ENTER will take place in Nicosia, Cyprus. Nicosia is the

    capital of Cyprus; a status it has enjoyed for 1000 years since the 10th

    century, though its beginnings date back 5000 years to the Bronze Age.

    Nicosia is a sophisticated and cosmopolitan city, rich in history and culture

    that combines its historic past with the amenities of a modern city. Cyprus

    is an island drenched in sun and mythology, at the crossroads of ancient

    civilizations. 9,000 years of history gathered on one island. Cyprus packs a

    remarkable array of sights and attractions, museums and archaeological

    parks, throbbing beach resorts, pine covered mountains, medieval fortresses

    and ancient temples. Over the last few years, it has become one of the top

    touristic European destinations breaking in consecutive years the record of

    tourist arrivals. It is expected that in 2018, more than 3.6 million tourists

    will visit Cyprus and plans target a steady intake of 5 million tourists per

    year. More information about Nicosia and Cyprus as well as what the island

    and its capital offer can be found on the conference web site.

    Call for Research Papers

    We invite research papers across the widest spectrum of Information and

    Communication Technologies in Travel and Tourism to be presented at the

    ENTER 2019 conference. All submissions to the research track are rigorously

    evaluated for novelty, significance, and soundness. Papers should clearly

    state the background, introduction, purpose, theory, methodology, results,

    conclusions and managerial/industry/social implications of the study, and

    be fully referenced with appropriate citations. The authors of full papers

    and research notes will have the opportunity to present their research orally

    supported by PowerPoint slides. Full technical details will be provided with

    the acceptance of the paper.

    The proceedings of recently held ENTER conferences are listed by ISI's

    Conference Proceedings Citation Index - Science (CPCI-S). ENTER 2019

    proceedings will follow a similar indexing process for ISI and other major

    indices.

    A) Full Papers

    Full papers should be innovative, so to advance the knowledge base of

    related fields. These papers present major contributions to the field and

    should be up to 12 pages in length. The conference proceedings

    https://www.springer.com/la/book/9783319729220> (to be published by

    Springer International Publishing) will include all accepted full papers. An

    award for the best full paper will be presented during the conference.

    B) Research Notes

    Research notes of up to 5 pages are invited. These papers represent new

    ideas not developed enough at the scale of a full paper, findings that restate

    known research, descriptions of prototypes, or research that is limited in

    scope. All research notes will be published by the e-Review of Tourism

    Research (eRTR) at http://ertr.tamu.edu/ (Editor of eRTR: Cody Morris Paris,

    Middlesex University Dubai, United Arab Emirates).

    C) Organized Sessions

    Proposals for organizing technical or other research-oriented sessions are
