Information Quality (IQ) is becoming a very active area of research and practice. The awareness of IQ is growing. The organisations have started to realise the importance of IQ, adverse impacts it can have when ignored and long lasting benefits it can provide when managed properly. With this increased awareness of IQ, a plethora of methodologies and frameworks for IQ are emerging. It is thus timely to seek assessment of the state-of-the-art in this area and get directions for further enhancing it.

Recommended general topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

* Research methodology for information quality
* Technical frameworks for information quality projects and programs
* Methodologies and approaches for information quality assessment and measurements
* Information quality systems development
* Information quality and enterprise architecture

* Approaches and methodology for identifying information quality success factors
* Case study approaches and field research in data and information quality
