Call for Papers for the

* 13th International Multiconference: INFORMATION SOCIETY 2010 *

11-15 October 2010 in Ljubljana, Slovenia

URL: http://is.ijs.si

 

---------------

 

* Description *

 

The concepts of information society, information era, infosphere and 

infostress have by now been widely accepted. But, what does it really 

mean for societies, science, technology, education, governments, our 

lives? The Information Society multiconference deals with information 

technologies, which are of major importance for the development of 

Europe. IS 2010 will serve as a forum for the world-wide and national 

community to explore further research directions, business 

opportunities and governmental policies. These reasons require that 

we host a scientific meeting in the form of a multiconference, which 

will consist of several independent conferences with themes essential 

for the development of the information society. The main objective is 

the exchange of ideas and developing visions for the future of 

information society. IS 2010 is a high-quality multidisciplinary 

conference covering major recent scientific achievements.
