In the 15 years of their history IDIMTs have proven to be a truly interdisciplinary and international forum for the exchange of concepts and visions in the area of software-intensive Systems, Engineering of Complex Systems, Information Engineering, Knowledge Management, System Thinking, Business Engineering, Information Technology, Information Management and related topics. The increasing importance of information as a vital resource requires the consideration of synergies in an interdisciplinary and holistic cooperation of various disciplines such as electronics, software engineering, sociology, management techniques, business, and education.

IDIMT involves a multi-national, multidisciplinary audience in discussing up to date and evolving topics and issues. The conference will follow the well-established pattern of a single stream of sessions, each introduced by a keynote and followed by shorter position papers, their full text being included in the proceedings. At least 20 minutes are set aside at each session for a plenary discussion.
