Program Committee
The Program Committee has about 49 members, who are complemented by about 594 reviewers, from about 63 countries. The names, affiliations and countries of the PC’s members as well as the additional reviewers could be found at the Conference’s web site, or more specifically at www.iiis2010.org/eista/PCommitte.asp
The Program Committee is mostly formed by 1) the authors of the sessions' best papers of EISTA 2009; 2) its effective invited session organizers who also were co-editors of the conference proceedings; and 3) some members of past EISTA Conferences, who were also authors of best papers. (Those who manifested no interest in participating in the Program Committee have been removed).

Virtual Participation
Given the Global Recession, and thinking of those scholars, researchers and professionals related with the conference topics but unable to attend it personally (usually due to insufficient funding for the traveling costs) a Virtual Participation mode has been established, with the same peer reviewing and validity than face-to-face ones.
Submissions made for Virtual Participation would go through the same reviewing processes of the regular papers (double-blind, non-blind, and participative peer reviewing) and, if accepted (according to the same acceptance policy), they will be included in the proceedings and will be eligible for journal publication, with no additional cost, if they are, according to their reviewers, among the best 10%-20% of those physically and virtually presented at the conference.

Each regular session, included in the conference program, will be associated to a corresponding virtual session where all final versions of the articles to be presented will be displayed and authors can comment them via electronic forums. Registered authors of virtual participations will have access to all conference program sessions (and papers). Their article will be displayed as the regular ones. Virtual authors also have the option of sending, besides the final version of their article in a PDF document, an electronic presentation (PowerPoint, flash, etc. and/or a 15-20 minutes video)

After paying the respective shipping and handling costs, registered authors of virtual participation, who have paid their registration fee, can get delivered the same conference material that the regular attendees receive at the registration desk.

Participation in the conference could be done by means of one or several of the following activities:
? The submission of a paper/abstract.

Kinds of Participants
Participation of both, researchers and practitioners is strongly encouraged. Papers may be submitted on: research in science and engineering, case studies drawn on professional practice and consulting, and position papers based on large and rich experience gained through executive/managerial practices and decision-making.
