Management and Business

Information Architecture and Information Technology

Enterprise Architecture

Entrepreneurship in the IS area

Fundamentals of IS

Mathematical Fundamentals for IS

Knowledge Management and Organizational Learning

IS Managements

IS Planning, Auditing, Strategic Alignment, Security and Risk, Quality,

Project Management, and Business Process Management

Psychology applied to IS , Social and Human Aspects in IS

Intelligent IS (intelligent agents, genetic algorithms, machine

learning, data mining, formal models, ontologies, automated reasoning, neural

networks, knowledge representation)

General Systems Theory

2. Regular Track - Paper Submission

Papers may be written in English or Portuguese and should follow the SBC

papers publishing model (http://www.sbc.org.br/index.phpoption=com_jdownloa

ds&Itemid=195&task=finish&cid=38&catid=32 ) and be submitted in PDF format.

There are two possible types of submission:

Full Papers: they must have seven to 12 pages (including figures, tables,

diagrams, bibliography and appendices). Papers submitted as "Full Papers" may,

after evaluation by the Program Committee, have their acceptance recommended as

"Short Papers".

Short papers: they should be limited to six pages (including figures,

tables, diagrams, bibliography and appendices). Short papers should pre ferably

describe "work in progress", whose results are not fully consolidated.

Proposals for papers should be submitted electronically through the SBC's JEMS

systems, using the following tracks

(https://submissoes.sbc.org.br/home.cgic=1496 ):

Full Papers: SBSI 2012 Technical Tracks 1. Regular Track -

Full papers.

Short papers: SBSI 2012 Technical Tracks 2. Regular Track -

Short papers.

All contributions will be reviewed considering the technical merit and the

relevance to the symposium.

Accepted papers will be published in the symposium proceedings conditional upon

registration of at least one of the authors at the event.

The following journals are committed to publish extended ve rsions of papers as

a selection of best papers:

iSys Revista Brasileira de Sistemas de Informao Electronic

ISSN 1984- 2902

RESI Revista Eletrnica de Sistemas de Informao ISSN 1677 -

SPECIAL TRACKS

In addition to the Regular Track, the SBSI 2012 PC invites submission of papers

selection processes, as follows. Papers that fit specifically in one of these

four Special Tracks and which are submitted for the Regular Tr ack will be

redirected to be evaluated on the correct track as expected.

1. Special Track 1 Information Systems and Smart Cities (Positions Papers)

2. Special Track 2 Industry Experience Reports and Case Studies

3. Special Track 3 Applications of Information Systems Tools

4. Special Track 4 Education in Information Systems
