SITIS'07
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.
