Special Session on ICT in Academia: Applications and use

Chairs:

Nestor Michael C. Tiglao, University of the Philippines  nestor@up.edu.ph
Wilfred S. Manuela Jr., University of the Philippines  wilfred@up.edu.ph


Session Description

Information and communication technology in the university setting provides unique challenges distinct from other organizations due to factors such as the sheer number of users and stakeholders, widely dispersed locations in a campus setting, variety of applications and platforms used, and funding limitations, among others. This special session seeks to discuss the problems and solutions of providing ICT services in a university campus setting.

Topics include but are not limited to:
  • IT management structure and policies at universities
  • Strategic approaches to IT services at universities
  • Benefits of free and open source (FOSS) software
  • Deployment of campus-wide ICT services like VoIP and video conferencing
  • Innovative uses of IT for teaching and learning
  • Use of emerging technologies like RFID, Wi-Fi and Wi-Max in university campuses
  • Data center design and campus network management
  • Data and computer security


Papers will be evaluated for originality, significance, clarity, and contribution.  It is IBIMA policy to send complete papers to two reviewers for full blind peer review and to send a summary of review back to the author(s) .   Short papers/abstracts will be reviewed by reviewer and/or the editor.  All review comments and suggestions should be addressed in the final submission.  Submitted Papers must not have been previously published or currently submitted for publication elsewhere.

Conference proceedings will be published as an e-book on a CD (ISBN:0-9753393-8-9
)
