GIIS 2009
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

IEEE Global Information Infrastructure Symposium (GIIS 2009)
June 23th ~ 25th, 2009,
Hammamet, Tunisia
http://www.ieee-giis.org/

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Scope and Overview:

GIIS 2009 follows the success of GIIS 2007 (www.ieee-giis.org/GIIS2007).
The scope of GIIS consists of interrelated set of technical, policy, and
social issues implicit in the development of national and international
(global) information infrastructures. GIIS aims at identifying and
promoting the exchange of knowledge on these interrelated issues and
provides liaison to bodies in the global society, technical for and
international standards. GIIS 2009 will stimulate interdisciplinary
conference sessions and workshops to discuss, built and further the use
of national and international information infrastructures.
The conference also aims at providing a forum for the participants to
broaden professional contacts and for technical discussions and
interactions on specific information infrastructure topics. Information
infrastructure brings together information processing applications,
communications networks and services, physical and software elements in
networks, and end systems. The program of GIIS 2009 will include invited
talks, paper presentations, workshops, tutorials, panel and discussion
sessions.
The technical issues addressed by the conference include
Interoperability at various levels, standard services and user
interfaces, world wide naming and addressing, and the international
mobility of persons and services. The policy issues addressed by the
conference are those with a large technical element, including
protection of intellectual property, privacy and security, international
use of encryption technology, commercial protocols, and standards vs.
proprietary technologies. The conference is specifically interested in
ubiquity, open source/equal access, ease of use, cost effectiveness,
standards, and architectural openness.
