For the past twenty years the ACM Symposium on Applied Computing (SAC)
has been a primary forum for applied computer scientists, computer
engineers and application developers to gather, interact, and present
their work. SAC is sponsored by the ACM Special Interest Group on
Applied Computing (SIGAPP); its proceedings are published by ACM in both
printed form and CD-ROM; they are also available on the web through
ACM's Digital Library. More information about SIGAPP and past SACs can
be found at http://www.acm.org/sigapp


Special Track on E-Commerce Technologies
----------------------------------------

A few years ago, e-commerce applications were focused primarily on
handling transactions and managing catalogs. Business requirements,
however, are evolving beyond transaction support to include content
management, personalization, integration, and marketplace enablement.
The track will focus on technologies currently employed in creating
offerings, the latest developments in the electronic marketplace, on
computational and deployment issues, architectural support, policies,
and advanced solutions and practices. The track is intended to address
the current needs of both researchers and practitioners, and to identify
significant research challenges that will most beneficially impact the
future use of e-commerce applications.

The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Electronic Auctions
Agent Technology for E-Commerce
User's Preference Elicitation
Recommender Systems
Formal Methods in e-commerce
Security Aspects
Mass Personalization Technologies
User Modeling and Customer Profiling
Electronic Contracting and Electronic Negotiation
Mobile E-Commerce Applications
Trust and Reputation Systems in E-Commerce
Privacy and Anonymizing Applications
Data Mining for E-Commerce
Semantic Web Enabled E-Commerce
Electronic Payments
