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 invites original research  
and industrial papers on the theory, design and implementation of  
digital information systems, as well as proposals for demonstrations,  
tutorials, workshops and industrial presentation.

We solicit original research and technical papers not published  
elsewhere. The papers can be theoretical, practical and application  
oriented on the themes and areas specified. The IEEE template of the  
papers is available at http://www.icdim.org . The papers should not  
exceed 8 pages. Any supporting materials such as data, proof etc  
should be sent as Appendix. Each submission undergoes review by three  
referees on the basis of originality, novelty, new methodology and  
innovativeness. Based on the recommendations of the reviewers the  
papers will be accepted.  A best-paper award will be presented at the  
conference. Accepted papers must be presented at the conference by one  
of the authors. All the accepted papers will be published by IEEE. All  
papers published in ICDIM 2006 Proceedings will be completely indexed  
by IEEEXplore.
Extended/modified versions of the papers will appear in a special  
issue of the Journal of Digital Information Management (JDIM).
