OBJECTIVES AND SCOPE
Information Systems Development (ISD) progresses rapidly,
continually creating new challenges for the professionals
involved. New concepts, approaches and techniques of
systems development emerge constantly in this field. Progress
in ISD comes from research as well as from practice. The aim
of the Conference is to provide an international forum for the
exchange of ideas and experiences between academia and
industry, and to stimulate exploration of new solutions.
TRACKS AND TOPICS
The ISD 2005 Conference will be organised in different
research tracks and a special industry track according to the
conference theme “Bridging the Gap between Academia and
Practice”. On the next slide some important tracks are

CONFERENCE VENUE
The Conference will be held at the campus of Karlstad University (http://www.kau.se/) in
Sweden. We are delighted to invite you to the beautiful Scandinavian country of Sweden,
the home of nine million people. Karlstad is situated in mid-western Sweden on top of
Lake Vänern, one of Europe’s largest freshwater lakes.
Karlstad is situated in between Stockholm, the capital city of Sweden and Oslo, the
capital city of Norway. The relatively close distance and easy access to Gothenburg,
Sweden’s second largest city and Copenhagen in Denmark is also important.
The County of
Värmland, in which
Karlstad is situated, is well known for
several authors, among others Gustaf
Fröding and Selma Lagerlöf, and also
many athletics. Today, ice hockey is a
major sport in Karlstad, being the address
of Färjestads BK, one of the most
successful teams in the country.
When visiting Karlstad, you always feel
the closeness to water. Besides being
situated by a lake, River Klarälven also
flows through the centre of Karlstad. The
longest stone arch bridge in Sweden, built
more than 200 years ago and still in use,
crosses the river.
The symbol of the university, and also of
Karlstad municipality, is the sun. The
inhabitants of Karlstad are proud to have
more than 1 800 sunny hours a year, an
amount which is in the top positions of the
Swedish sun hour’s league.
