CONFERENCE OBJECTIVES AND PURPOSE
STANDARDIZATION and INNOVATION are fundamental processes in our technological and increasingly global civilization, sometimes operating in tension and sometimes in concert with each other. The complex interplay between these two processes is still not well understood, in spite of being linked to nearly every facet of our economy, society, culture, and physical environment. In recognition of the crucial importance of improving our understanding of these processes and of their interrelationship, the SIIT International Conference was initiated in 1999 to bring together technology developers, industry leaders and scientific researchers, from government, commerce and academia.
SIIT 2001 will provide an open, international forum to consider all aspects of Standardization and Innovation. Users, manufacturers, service providers, researchers, governmental agencies and educators involved with theoretical and applied studies of information technology, telecommunications, social sciences, law and humanities are invited to contribute significant original papers. Contributions will include those involving disciplines of economics, business, engineering, management, political science, public policy, regulation, sociology, philosophy, communication, and human factors/usability.
By promoting applied and theoretical studies of the interdisciplinary nature of standardization and innovation, the SIIT conferences provide a novel forum for the formulation and resolution of questions vital to 21st century global economic and social growth. The conference format offers a unique opportunity to gather a broad variety of practitioners, providers and thinkers from around the world and to facilitate insights on an array of relevant, interconnected and timely issues and topics.
Those wishing to participate in organization of the conference (e.g., technical or administrative committees) or to inquire about opportunities as a conference sponsor are invited to contact the General Conference Chair, Timothy Schoechle: email: Timothy.Schoechle@StandardsResearch.org phone: +1 303-492-3653
Opportunities for fellowship or travel support may be available. Please forward this Call for Papers to any interested party.
