I realize not everyone is interested in the conference announcements I send out. After all, most people will never attend any of them. But hey, I won't attend more than a vanishing proportion of them either. I find them fascinating for several reasons. They remind me how big the world is, and how small. They give me a sense of knowing what everyone in the research world and other relevant institutions is doing, or at least what they publicly say they're doing and what language they use to say it. Fortunately, numerous RRE readers share my fascination, and several of them have self-organized to assemble the enclosed absurdly long list of upcoming conferences that relate to the social-aspects-of-computing types of topics that RRE covers. The conferences are loosely grouped into six categories: information systems in context, information society, interface, economics and commerce, libraries and museums, and the incredibly huge world of education technology. We thought of assembling a humorous list of the odd conferences that also get organized in the world (e.g., the "Reciprocal Meat Conference") but we decided it would be too easy. information systems in context Second Kyoto Meeting on Digital Cities, 18-20 October 2001 http://www.digitalcity.jst.go.jp/meeting/ Organizations and Society in Information Systems, New Orleans, 16 December 2001 http://www.ifipwg82.org/oasis2001.php3 Information Systems Development, London, 5-7 September 2001 http://www.rhbnc.ac.uk/~uhtm022/isd2001/isd2001c.htm Information Systems and the Future of Digital Economy, Gdansk, 6-8 June 2002 http://panda.bg.univ.gda.pl/ecis2002/main.html Critical Research in Information Systems, Salford, UK, 9-10 July 2001 http://www.isi.salford.ac.uk/cris/ Enterprise Information Systems, Setubal, Portugal, 7-10 July 2001 http://www.iceis.org/ Security and Control of IT in Society, Bratislava, 15-16 June 2001 http://www.conference.sk/ifip/cfp.html Association of Internet Researchers, Minneapolis, 10-14 October 2001 http://www.cddc.vt.edu/aoir/ European Anti-Malware Conference, Berlin, 8-11 June 2002 http://conference.eicar.org/ Geospatial Information and Technology Association, Tampa, 17-20 March 2002 http://www.gita.org/events/02_25_open.html History of Scientific and Technical Info Systems, Philadelpha, 15-17 November 2002 http://www.chemheritage.org/HistoricalServices/2002HHSTIS2.htm Road Transport Information and Control, London, 19-21 March 2002 http://conferences.iee.org.uk/RTIC/ European Conference on e-Government, Dublin, 27-28 September 2001 http://www.mcil.co.uk/2c-eceg2001.htm information society Information, Knowledges and Society, Havana, 22-26 April 2002 http://www.idict.cu/info2002/venglish.htm Euro-China Forum on the Information Society, Beijing, 16-20 April 2002 http://www.EuroChina2002.com/default.htm interface Usability Professionals Association, Las Vegas, 27-29 June 2001 http://www.upassoc.org/conf2001/call.html IFIP Conference on Human-Computer Interaction, Tokyo, 9-13 July 2001 http://www.interact2001.com/ Information Technology Evaluation, Oxford, 17-18 September 2001 http://is.twi.tudelft.nl/iteva/Callfp012.htm Language-Action Perspective on Communication Modelling, Montreal, 21-22 July 2001 http://www-i5.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/conf/lap2001/ Human Interfaces in Control Rooms, Cockpits and Command Centres, Manchester, 19-21 June 2001 http://www.iee.org.uk/Conf/PIC2001/ Advanced Driver Assistance Systems, Birmingham, 17-19 September 2001 http://www.iee.org.uk/Conf/ADAS/ International Workshop on Groupware, Darmstadt, 6-8 September 2001 http://criwg.nce.ufrj.br/criwg01/ Human Factors in Computing Systems, Minneapolis, 20-25 April 2002 http://www.acm.org/sigchi/chi2002/ International Conference on Information Visualization, London, 25-27 July 2001 http://www.graphicslink.demon.co.uk/IV2001/ economics and commerce ACM Conference on Electronic Commerce, Tampa, 14-17 October 2001 http://www.acm.org/sigs/sigecom/EC01/ Electronic Commerce, Vienna, 31 October -
