Information Systems Education & Curricula Workshop (ISEC'13)
Kraków, Poland, September 8-11, 2013
ISEC goal is to promote the discussion about the convergence between Computer Science and Information Systems topics, so that researchers can present a complete and detailed specification of their educational curricula by means of these two topics. We inspect papers that contribute to the better understanding of emerging and important educational fields of Computer Science (CS) and Information Systems (IS). Authors are invited to submit their papers in English, presenting the results of original research or innovative practical applications in the field.
Regarding the selection process, we plan to perform a triple review process.
