The International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) is a
non-profit umbrella organization for national societies working in
the field of information processing. It was founded in 1960 under
the auspices of UNESCO. It is organized into several technical
committees. This book represents the proceedings of the 2006
conference of technical committee 8 (TC8), which covers the field
of information systems. This conference formed part of IFIP's World
Computer Congress in Chile. The occasion celebrated the 30th
anniversary of IFIP TC8 by looking at the past, present and future
of information systems. The proceedings reflect not only the
breadth and depth of the work of TC8, but also the international
nature of the group, with authors from 18 countries being
represented in the 21 papers (including two invited papers) and 2
panels. All submissions were rigorously refereed by at least two
reviewers and an associate editor and following the review and
resubmission process nearly 50% of submissions were accepted. This
paper introduces the papers and panels presented at the conference
and published in this volume. It is never straightforward to
classify a set of papers but we have made an attempt and this
classification is also reflected in the sessions of the conference
itself. The classification for the papers is as follows: the world
of information systems - early pioneers; developing improved
information systems; information systems in their domains of
application; the discipline of information systems; issues of
production; IT impacts on the organization; tools and modeling and
new directions.
