                 The International Workshop on
        Next Generation Information Technologies and Systems
           
                   June 28 - 30  1993
        Technion -- Israel Institute of Technology
                    HAIFA, ISRAEL

GENERAL INFORMATION:

A current view in the research community is that next generation
information and systems  will be complex, intelligent,
cooperative and will utilize various multi-media technologies.

The goal of this workshop is to provide a forum for discussing
issues related to the realization of these next generation systems.
These issues include but are not limited to:

* Architecture of NGITS systems.
* Paradigms for the design and implementation of NGITS (software  
  repositories, application generators, and object orientation).
* Knowledge and Data management issues in NGITS.
* Multi-Media technologies.
* Intelligent Information Systems.
* Cooperation and Collaboration in NGITS.
* Computer Vision and its use in NGITS.
* The user's perspectives: NGITS interfaces.
* Inter-Disciplinary Research required for NGITS.
* Industrial Applications of NGITS.
 
We solicit contributions of two types:

* Research papers (extended abstracts limited to 10 double-spaced  pages)
* Position papers (about any of the relevant issues).


The workshop will feature paper presentations, discussions and
panels based on position papers submitted, a "feedback from the 
industry perspective" panel and invited speakers.

All accepted papers will appear in a conference proceedings. 
Selected papers will be published in a special issue of
the Journal of Intelligent Information Systems.
