> --- OVERVIEW ---
>
> The Global Integration Summit (GIS) is the annual meeting of the
Integration Consortium (IC), the non-profit, user-driven association of IT
professionals focused on application, information, process,service, and
system integration technologies.
>
> The GIS differs from other industry events as it is truly user-driven and
vendor-neutral. With an attendance hovering above 200 every year, and
involving senior integration executives from leading Global 2000
corporations, the event offers a personal atmosphere for networking.
>
> The Integration Consortium is calling on integration thought
leaders,practice leaders, business leaders, and product leaders to present
papers at the 2006 Global Integration Summit that can help the industry
achieve a higher degree of maturity and application interoperability. If you
are such a leader, you are invited to submit a paper, by January 31, 2006,
to
> the GIS Program Committee for consideration at the 2006 Summit. A
peer-review process will select the best papers which will be published in
the Summit Proceedings. Of the accepted papers, the best ones (the best of
the best) will be invited to present their papers at the Summit in Boston
and to defend their perspective at a plenary of their peers. The top three
presentations, as voted on by attendees at the Summit, will also receive a
cash award ($1,000, $2,000, or $3,000) at the annual awards banquet.
>
> --- THEME ---
>
> For our 3rd edition, the theme "Integration For Everyone" seeks to build a
unified view of the Integration Discipline. One outcome of the Summit will
be to develop a new Integration Body of Knowledge (I-BOK) As such, we
welcome IT thought leaders from industry, vendors, analysts, and academia to
expose the "State of the Art" in integration solutions.
>
> --- TOPICS ---
>
> Topics can range from business drivers for integration such as Governance
and Regulatory Compliance, to integration approaches and platforms such as
the Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and Business Process Management
(BPM), to technical infrastructure issues such as Enterprise Service Bus
(ESB) and Open Source Middleware.
>
> Papers can take the form of conceptual frameworks, research in
progress,best practice reports, case studies, and executive viewpoints.
>
> We welcome papers that contribute to enriching the I-BOK. Please see below
