IS: Crossroads of Technology, People, Organizations and Markets

Limassol, Cyprus - September 3-5, 2011

Call for Panel Discussions

MCIS 2011 accepts proposals for panel discussions on topics related to the
scope of the conference.  Panel discussions are expected to offer an
informative, well-rounded address of a topic ideally leading to an engaging
dialogue between panelists and attendees. Topics include, but are not
limited to, emerging developments of Information Systems, the contribution
of Information Systems in a specific business sector of particular
importance to the Euro-Mediterranean region, or potentials of collaboration
between academia and business.

A typical panel discussion is expected to be structured as follows: 

*         The moderator outlines the topic and presents the panelist,

*         Each panelist presents his/her views on the topic,

*         The moderator co-ordinates discussion between the panelist and the
attendees, and

*         The moderator presents the final conclusive remarks.

Panel discussions are expected to last 90 minutes; with the last 30 minutes,
at least, devoted to addressing questions coming from the floor.

Panel proposals must include information on:

*         Title of the panel discussion;

*         A brief introduction (up to 200 words) to the topic of the panel
discussion;

*         Name, affiliations and contact information for the moderator and
the suggested panelists; while

*         A position statement (up to 100 words) for each panelist may be
also included, although not formally required.

Proposals for panel discussions must be submitted as any other
paper/proposal through the conference submission system (EasyChair). Upon
approval, the moderator and the panelists must be registered by the
"Authors' Registration Day" to be included in the program. 

Inquiries or clarifications may be addressed to Prof. Georgios Doukidis,
<mailto:gjd at aueb.gr> gjd at aueb.gr or Prof. George Papadopoulos,
