Innovations in Information Technology (Innovations’11), is a premier forum for the presentation and discussion of technology

advances and research results in a wide range of disciplines in Information Technology (IT). This is an annual international

conference organized by the Faculty of Information Technology, United Arab Emirates University (UAEU). This year, the

conference will for the first time be hosted in Abu Dhabi. Innovations’11 is the seventh edition of the conference, which

has been held since 2004 in the UAE (past conferences were held in Dubai and Al Ain). The conference will feature world-renowned keynote speakers and excellent technical sessions addressing the technology

landscape and current challenges and opportunities in topics including communication networks, information security, web

services, high performance computing, data acquisition and processing, data mining, transportation management, and health IT

and bioinformatics.
