The Sydney ISSI 2001 Conference

Calls for Proposals and Papers

Contributors are requested to submit an extended abstract of at least 1000 words to the Australian Organising Committee Chair, Dr Mari Davis. References accompanying the extended abstract need not be counted in the word limit. In cases of submissions with mathematical content, authors are requested to provide sufficient detail for reviewers to check the math. This may mean that mathematical work needs to be accompanied by an appendix (extra to the word limit above).

Submissions are requested to be sent electronically to the ISSI-2001 email address as an attached file in preferably Rich Text Format or as either Microsoft Word or other commonly used word processing software. Those not able to present their submissions by email should post them to arrive in Australia by 12th January 2001. All submissions received will be acknowledged. If you have sent a submission and do not receive confirmation of its receipt by the Australian ISSI-2001 Organising committee, please send your submission again. Check that the email address you used to send the submission is correct. Make sure you notify the ISSI-2001 headquarters of your current email address. 

Email for sending submissions: issi2001@unsw.edu.au

Extended abstracts should include author's names, organisations, and complete physical mailing address with telephone, facsimile, email on a separate page so that we are able to ensure anonymity in the review process.

Contributors will be notified no later than Friday 6th April 2001 by the ISSI 2001 Conference Organising Chair if their abstract has been selected for a paper presentation or as a poster.

Full papers in the correct format ready for publication in the Conference Proceedings must be received by the Conference Secretariat - UNSW, School of Information Systems, Technology and Management, Sydney 2052 AUSTRALIA - no later than Friday 8th June 2001.
