The third annual ACM Conference on Electronic Commerce (EC'01) will feature invited talks, panel discussions, refereed paper presentations and tutorials covering all areas of electronic commerce. The natural focus of the conference is on computer science issues, but the conference is interdisciplinary in nature. We actively seek research relevant to those issues but which draw in a significant way on economics, game theory, management, law, and other disciplines.
INVITED SPEAKERS
| Jeremy Bulow | Stanford, Business / Federal Trade Commission | |
| Tom Leighton | MIT, Computer Science / Akamai Technologies | |
| Lawrence Lessig | Stanford, Law / Electronic Frontier Foundation | |
| Alvin Roth | Harvard, Economics and Business |
PAPER SUBMISSION
The conference is soliciting papers on all computer scientific aspects of electronic commerce; representative topics are listed at the end of this announcement. Submitted papers will be evaluated on significance, originality, technical quality, and exposition. They should clearly establish the research contribution, its relevance to electronic commerce, and its relation to prior research. Accepted papers will be presented at the conference, and included in the published proceedings. Submissions may be up to 6000 words, and may not have appeared before (or be pending) in a journal or conference with published proceedings, nor may they be under review or submitted to another forum during the EC'01 review process.
Electronic submissions (in PDF or postscript format) are strongly preferred. Paper copies can be sent, if needed, to the following address:
