HIS'15 CALL FOR PAPERS

The 4th International Conference on 
Health Information Science (HIS2015)
28 - 30th May 2015, Melbourne, Australia
http://www.his-conferences.org/2015/
--------------------------------------

The 4th International Conference on Health Information Science provides 
a forum for disseminating and exchanging multidisciplinary research results 
in computer science/information technology and health science & services. 
HIS 2015 aims to integrate computer science/information technology with 
health sciences & services, embracing information science research coupled 
with topics related to the modelling, design, development, integration, and 
management of health information systems and health services. It covers all 
aspects of the health information sciences and the systems that support this 
health information management and health service delivery.  

The scope includes:
1. Medical/health/biomedicine information resources, such as patient medical 
   records, devices and equipment, software and tools to capture, store, 
   retrieve, process, analyse, optimize the use of information in the health 
   domain; 
2. Data management, data mining, and knowledge discovery (in health domain), 
   all of which play a key role in decision making, management of public 
   health, examination of standards, privacy and security issues; 
3. Development of new architectures and applications for health information 
   systems.

Topics include, but not limited to: 
- Information systems including electronic health records, hospital 
  information systems, data exchange and integration
- Health service delivery, workflow 
- Data mining, knowledge discovery, decision making support
- System interoperability, ontology and standardization 
- Bioinformatics
- Biomedical informatics, Brain informatics, Imaging informatics
- Telemedicine, Health data management
- Health database and information-system integration
- Health information extraction, Health information services
- Health information-system modeling, design, and development
- Health information visualization
- Support tools and languages for health information-system development
- Information system interface
- Data integration, Data processing
- Data federation, sharing, and mining
- E-health care delivery
- Distributed computing, Pervasive computing in content of e-health
- Information storage and retrieval in e-health
- Innovative applications in e-health
- Integration of heterogeneous information sources
- Agent systems with e-health

- World Wide Web

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
DUPLICATE SUBMISSIONS AND NOVELTY REQUIREMENTS 
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
A research paper submitted to HIS 2015 cannot be under review for any 
other publishing forum or presentation venue; including conferences, 
workshops, and journals, during the time it is being considered for 
HIS 2015 conference. Furthermore, after you submit a research paper 
to HIS 2015, you must await the response from HIS 2015 and only 
resubmit elsewhere if your paper is rejected--or withdrawn at your 
request--from HIS 2015. This restriction applies to identical papers 
as well as to papers with a substantial overlap in scientific content 
and results.
    
+++++++++++++++++
REVIEWING PROCESS  
+++++++++++++++++
Every research paper submitted to HIS 2015 will undergo a peer 
reviewing process. All accepted papers will be incorporated into 
the conference program and included in the conference proceedings 
published by Springer LNCS.
