The International Conference on Information Science and Applications (ICISA 2011) will be held on April 26-29, 2011, Jeju Island in Korea.

The goal of this conference is to bring together researchers from academia and practitioners from different industries to share ideas, problems, and solutions. This conference will provide many opportunities for researchers to present recent research results and describe emerging technologies, new research problems, and directions in information science and applications issues. The conference seeks to contribute to presenting novel research results in all aspects of information science and applications.

All the accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings published by the "IEEE eXpress Conference Publishing" and will be included in the "IEEE Xplorer® and Elsevier's EI Compendex". Furthermore, the best papers presented in ICISA 2011 will be further revised and published in Special Issues of prestigious international journals (SCI-E).
