Submission Guidelines
=====================
1. Two types of submissions will be accepted: research papers and
case studies. Research papers should describe original research that
has not been accepted or submitted for publication elsewhere. Case
studies should describe new insights gained from the application of
enterprise information technology in practice. All papers must be in
English and will be refereed.
2. Each submission must be accompanied by a cover page with every

affiliation and the topic area (key words) to which it is submitted.
All correspondence will be sent to the first author unless otherwise
specified.
3. Submissions have to be sent electronically and the
correspondence regarding receipt of submission will be made by email
unless otherwise requested. Submissions imply that at least one
author will register for the conference and present at the time
designated in the program. All submissions must be in either MS Word or PDF
formats.
4. Submissions must be received by Jan 31, 2006.
5. Submissions will only be published in the conference proceedings if at
least one of the authors attends the conference. CONFENIS 2006 proceedings
will be published by Kluwer publisher. For viewing IFIP series and published
sample issues, visit http://www.springer.com/series/6102 . Although the
Instructions for submitting a paper for the proceedings will be provided
when the paper is accepted, prospective authors may visit the same web page
mentioned above (upper right corner) for "For Authors and Editors" including
Author Instructions, Bibliographic Citation Instructions, sample papers, and
IFIP Copyright form.
Furthermore, the selected best research papers will be considered for
