Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences (HICSS) is an annual conference for Information Systems and Information Technology academics and professionals sponsored by the University of Hawaii at Manoa. Along with ICIS, HICSS is widely considered to be one of the most prestigious international conferences for IS/IT in the world. The conference, which now draws over 600 participants every year, provides a platform for panel discussions and the presentation of peer-reviewed information systems research papers. Papers selected for presentation appear in the HICSS Proceedings, which have grown to constitute nearly 100,000 pages of refereed material in the 39-year history of the conference.

The first HICSS conference, which took place in 1968 at the University of Hawaii, attracted representatives from 11 countries. Since that time, HICSS has grown markedly, and now attracts registered delegates from over three dozen countries every year.

HICSS-40 will be held in January of 2007 at Waikoloa Village on the Big Island.
