The SITIS conference is dedicated to research on the technologies used to
represent, share and process information in various forms, ranging from
signal, image, and multimedia data to traditional structured data and
semi-structured data found in the web. SITIS spans two inter-related
research domains that increasingly play a key role in connecting systems
across network centric environments to allow distributed computing and
information sharing.

SITIS 2007 aims to provide a forum for high quality presentations on
research activities centered on three main tracks.
