Final Call for Papers: Conference “Managing Spreadsheets in the light of Sarbanes-Oxley”
(PRWEB) February 24, 2005
EuSpRIG is issuing a Call for Papers for the 2005 conference on “Managing Spreadsheets in the light of Sarbanes-Oxley”. The programme will concentrate on all aspects of the management of spreadsheets including:
assessing current spreadsheet use
risk and other classification systems
proving effectiveness
available controls techniques
planning which kind of techniques fit which risks
maintaining integrity and compliance
We are seeking the following types of submission:
Full academic papers (up to 5000 words),
Management summaries (up to 2000 words).
We invite original papers from both new and established researchers within the academic and practitioner communities that present material related to the conference themes. The conference proceedings will be published by EuSpRIG.
Submissions to EuSpRIG 2005 may not have (already) been published in a journal or conference proceedings, nor presented at another conference. Moreover, they may not be currently under consideration for publication or presentation elsewhere. Only papers that are accepted and presented in person will be published.
It is expected that academics and students will contribute to the full papers which will be double-blind refereed by members of the programme committee. Management summaries are predominantly expected from business people and practising professionals such as spreadsheet users, developers, auditors and accountants – all who can contribute to the prevention, detection and correction of errors in spreadsheet models and applications. Such summaries will be reviewed by two referees.
Students please note: EuSpRIG in association with ISACA (Northern England Chapter) has arranged for the creation of an annual prize to be awarded for the best EuSpRIG conference paper submitted by an undergraduate or masters postgraduate student.

Submission deadline: 11 March 2005
Acceptance notice: 15 April 2005
Final camera-ready copy: 27 May 2005
