In the globalized, knowledge-based society, information systems and their underlying technologies are playing increasingly important roles. In Asia, where developed and fast- developing countries are both located cooperatively and collaboratively, more advances and developments in Information and Communication Technology are the key factors for the successful future.

The fifth Asian Conference on Information Systems, ACIS 2016, following the successes of the four Asian Conference of Information Systems (ACIS 2012 at Siem Reap, Cambodia; ACIS 2013 at Phuket, Thailand; ACIS 2014 at Nha Trang, Vietnam; and ACIS 2015 at Penang, Malaysia), is the unique, premier meeting of researchers, professionals and practitioners to discuss various current issues in information systems and related areas with a special focus on the current conditions and the future sustainable developments of Asian countries. ACIS 2016 will provide keynote sessions, concurrent oral sessions, poster sessions, and more, to exchange ideas, discuss best practices, raise awareness, and share experiences for deepening mutual understanding and friendship among researchers, professionals and practitioners.

ACIS 2016 will be held at Krabi, Thailand during 27-29 October, 2016. Krabi, located in the southern Thailand, is famous for the beauty of beaches and rocks, still preserving the traditional tastes and flavors, easily accessible internationally.

All the accepted papers will be published in the proceedings to be published by IEEJ, Japan, and selected papers will be invited to indexed international journals. High quality research papers and case studies are invited to be submitted electronically through the conference’s website.
