All papers accepted for conference/workshops/tutorials will be included in the
Proceedings published by the IEEE Engineering Management Society
 
The International Conference on Digital Information Management is a
multidisciplinary conference on digital information management,
science and technology. The principal aim of this conference is to
bring people in academia, research laboratories and industry and offer
a collaborative platform to address the emerging issues and solutions
in digital information science and technology. The ICDIM intends to
bridge the gap between different areas of digital information
management, science and technology. This forum will address a large
number of themes and issues. The conference invites original research
and industrial papers on the theory, design and implementation of
digital information systems, as well as proposals for demonstrations,
tutorials, workshops and industrial presentation.

We solicit original research and technical papers not published
elsewhere. The papers can be theoretical, practical and application
oriented on the themes and areas specified. The IEEE template of the
papers is available at http://www.icdim.org . The papers should not
exceed 8 pages. Any supporting materials such as data, proof etc
should be sent as Appendix. Each submission undergoes review by three
referees on the basis of originality, novelty, new methodology and
innovativeness. Based on the recommendations of the reviewers the
papers will be accepted.  A best-paper award will be presented at the
conference. Accepted papers must be presented at the conference by one
of the authors. All the accepted papers will be published by IEEE. All
papers published in ICDIM 2006 Proceedings will be completely indexed
by IEEEXplore.

Extended/modified versions of the papers will appear in a special
issue of the Journal of Digital Information Management (JDIM).
