Information and communications technology has enormous potential for transforming our healthcare delivery systems. Managing health and medical data in electronic format and extracting better understanding from it brings significant technical challenges that have to be resolved. These include how to store and manage large amounts of complex and disparate data; how to facilitate efficient information retrieval by diverse stakeholders with different objectives; balancing data privacy concerns against clinical and research benefits of data availability; and how to extract knowledge from data to contribute to healthcare decision making. The incorporation of specialised data types and multiple data sources to support broader operational and evidence related aspects of healthcare is also important. This includes diverse areas such as biomedical imaging, data coding, diagnosis and treatment guidelines, genome/phenome data, interactive multimedia, and physiological signals.Contributions are sought addressing current research topics in health informatics and knowledge management, including but not limited to: conceptual models and architectures for health information systems, privacy, protection and security issues for health data and systems, improving the use and quality of health data collections and registries, health workflow management and business process engineering, clinical decision support systems and diagnosis/treatment guidelines, patient journey analysis and modelling, and care plan management, health information retrieval, analysis and visualization, health knowledge discovery, representation and application, health databases and repositories, and data integration/linking, modelling spatial, temporal and biological data for health purposes, systems for integrated or coordinated care and sharing of patient data, public and population health data analysis, prediction and surveillance, electronic health records (EHRs) and personal health records (PHRs), health data coding, terminologies, ontologies, messaging protocols, health consumer information systems and web portals/tools, data and knowledge aspects of bioinformatics and physiological signals, biomedical devices and imaging data processing and analysis/interpretation, and evaluation and standardisation in health data and clinical applications.Keywords: Accepted papers list.
