With global trade and worldwide communications now dependent on effective Information Technology (IT) infrastructure, policy makers in Government and Business need to apply more complex measures to evaluate the return from IT investment. This track seeks to explore all economic related issues in the broad context of IT facilitated applications and environments. Perspectives may be drawn from local, national or global businesses; local, state or national governments; national or international stakeholders and examine a range of issues in relation to costs, benefits, investment and funding models, economic and social impact, and business and community value.

Suggested topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

• The economics of developing national and international IT infrastructures and supporting IT based applications (e.g., online trading systems, e-government, military systems, security systems, and online education)

• Comparison of economic versus social capital return from IT investment in different industry, community and/or cultural environments

• Innovative frameworks, new methods and models for measuring IT and e-business investment and value returns

• Evaluation of different models for IT resource procurement and management (e.g. outsourcing, ASPs, call centres)

• Employing IT to develop new products and services and benefits realisation in a variety of different application environments (e.g., CFPR systems, e-SCM systems, e-logistics systems, CRM systems, e-tailing systems, and e-health systems)

• Enterprise architecture investments and the impacts and benefits from cross-industry, cross-national, collaborative commerce applications

• Mobile communication and emerging information technologies and their economic impacts

• Comparing payoffs from and risk management approaches to e-Business and traditional IT investment strategies
