Call for Paper: IEEE 2010 International Workshop on Healthcare Informatics Services (HIS 2010) in conjunction with ICWS/SCC/CLOUD 2010President Barack Obama points out, “(Healthcare) is about people’s lives. This is about people’s businesses. This is about our future.” Computer technologies are bringing about enormous changes in the biomedical domain, revolutionizing the way healthcare is delivered and managed. The changes wrought by ubiquitous deployment of microchips, computers and sensors promise to be profound enough to change our lives and our society. Embedded software is getting more pervasive and its use in medical devices is gaining momentum. The devices and services are taking on increasingly vital roles in reducing the errors and cost. Scientific and clinical services and workflows, bio-sensors, along with interoperability of systems have brought seamless care into the realm of possible. It is becoming increasingly clear that the promised changes in healthcare will only be possible with judicious exploitation of the Healthcare IT and advances in biomedicine. The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners from the fields of healthcare, biomedical sciences, computer science, management and services to share their experiences and research results, and identify the emerging trends, opportunities, problems, and challenges in this area. It is anticipated that the workshop will foster collaborative efforts among practitioners and researchers, accelerate knowledge discovery, and thus contribute towards advances in research and practice of healthcare.
Prospective Audience and Authors: The workshop will be integrative from two perspectives: The research perspective will give researchers the opportunity to present and discuss current and future breakthroughs in information technologies and services in healthcare as well as the novel ways in which they are applied. The practical perspective will provide the opportunity for researchers and practitioners to present case studies and practical experiences in deployment, use, and management of software, systems, and tools in healthcare and biomedicine related applications, activities and facilities. Authors are invited to submit regular papers (8 pages), short papers (4 pages), and demo papers (2 pages) that show original unpublished research results in all areas of healthcare informatics services.
List of Potential Topics: Research results, case studies, and demos of systems on scientific computing and management in health and biomedical applications are encouraged. Suitable topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
Workshop format: The format of the workshop will include presentations, demonstrations (hardware and software), and posters.
Size and length of the proposed workshop: The workshop is expected to be held for one day. The duration of individual sessions will range from 90 minutes to 120 minutes, including a 15minutes break.
Instructions for Final Submission: Final papers will be acceptable in MS-Word format. The maximum number of pages is 8 for a regular paper, 4 for a short paper, and 2 for a demo paper. Submission requires you to be registered and logged in on Conferences Hub(http://www.confhub.com/). Registration is free.
