Plan now to submit your research for review, and attend the IACIS 2012 International Conference in Myrtle Beach! You will have a very rewarding experience.

"Information Technology in Action - Exploring How IT Supports Our Lives" is the theme of the IACIS 2012 International Conference. Information Technology supports where we work, our education and educational system, how we interact with people, and how we live our lives. Managing diverse technologies and supporting complex computing environments present numerous challenges for IT managers, software developers and educators. As we become increasingly dependent upon technology we have come to expect it to be available 24X7X365 to meet our needs. How have information systems organizations responded? How are Information System technologies developed, implemented, secured, and deployed, and are they effectively meeting our needs? How have we incorporated diverse technologies into the MIS curriculum to create effective learning environments? These are just some of the questions that IS researchers may wish to address.

The IACIS 2012 International Conference provides a showcase for the latest research in practice and pedagogical topics that focus on how information systems are used to support organizations or enhance the educational process. You are invited to share your research on the conference theme or other relevant IS and IT research with the educators and professionals attending the IACIS 2012 International Conference. Papers covering related academic and technical issues are also encouraged.
