Dear Colleagues:Due to the determining role that information systems have acquired in our world as a result of the modern global society, it is imperative that individuals and institutions find a way to keep pace with the new tide of high speed long distance interactions.
Universities play a fundamental role in this process of the acquisition of knowledge of the new information society and, further more, they are responsible along with corporations and technology developers, to establish the new paths that this information society will follow in the future.
The Role of Universities in the Future Information Society is the answer that a group of people with a common interest, have developed with the main concern of sharing these new technologies and ways of communication.
Understanding this role and establishing collaboration links among individuals and institutions brings up a better and stronger global society,
