Following the successful earlier conferences at Bangalore (2006) Lyon (2007), and London (2008) the fourth event is organized at Michigan (2009). The International Conference on Digital Information Management is a multidisciplinary conference on digital information management, science and technology. The principal aim of this conference is to bring people in academia, research laboratories and industry and offer a collaborative platform to address the emerging issues and solutions in digital information science and technology. The ICDIM intends to bridge the gap between different areas of digital information management, science and technology. This forum will address a large number of themes and issues. The conference will have original research and industrial papers on the theory, design and implementation of digital information systems, as well as demonstrations, tutorials, workshops and industrial presentation.

The topics in ICDIM 2009 include but are not confined to the following areas.
