ICE-B is organized by INSTICC - Institute for Systems and Technologies of Information, Control and Communication, and is part of ICETE - The International Joint Conference on e-Business and Telecommunications.

The purpose of ICE-B 2008, the International Conference on e-Business, is to bring together researchers, engineers and practitioners interested on information systems methods and applications in the context of e-business. e-Business is a research area of growing importance, encompassing several areas of theoretical and practical importance. Therefore, we look forward to receive research work and applications on innovative aspects of several areas relater to e-Business, including: “Communication and Software Technologies and Architectures”, “Web and Mobile Business Systems and Services” and “Business and Social Applications”.

Ideas on how to analyze and approach problems by combining information systems and communication technologies, either in the scope of R&D projects, engineering or business applications, are welcome. Papers describing new methods or technologies, advanced prototypes, systems, tools and techniques and general survey papers indicating future directions are also encouraged. Papers describing original work are invited in any of the areas listed below. Accepted papers, presented at the conference by one of the authors, will be published in the Proceedings of ICE-B, with an ISBN. Acceptance will be based on quality, relevance and originality. Both full research reports and work-in-progress reports are welcome. There will be both oral and poster sessions.

The best papers will be selected to appear either in an international journal or in a book to be published by Springer.

Special sessions, case-studies and tutorials dedicated to technical/scientific topics related to the main conference are also envisaged: researchers interested in organizing a special session, or companies interested in presenting their products/methodologies or researchers interested in holding a tutorial are invited to contact the conference secretariat.
