Description

The Internet pervades many of the activities of modern societies and has become the preferred medium for the delivery of information and services. The successful implementation of Internet applications, ranging from eBusiness, to eEducation or to eGovernment, is a multi-faceted problem, involving technological, managerial, economic, and legal issues.

The 4th International MCETECH Conference on e-Technologies aims to bring together researchers and practitioners interested in exploring the many facets of Internet applications and technologies, with a focus on the technological, managerial, and organisational issues. Original and inter-disciplinary approaches to these problems are highly encouraged.

Authors focusing on the technological aspects are encouraged to highlight economic, managerial, or organizational implications of their work. Conversely, authors focusing on the economic, managerial, or organizational aspects are encouraged to highlight the technological dimension.

The program committee will award a Best Paper Award to the best research paper in terms of 1) originality, 2) presentation, and 3) impact. Extended versions of the finalist papers shall be submitted to a special issue of the International Journal of E-Business. All accepted research and industrial papers will be included in the indexed conference proceedings published in the Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing series (Springer).

The conference also includes an industrial track, providing a forum for practitioners to present problems and case studies that have benefited from, or could benefit from, Internet technologies in their business. There will also be co-located workshops on the first day.
