These abstracts should be e-mailed to: wjank@rhsmith.umd.edu by the deadline above (February 28, 2005). PDF is the preferred format. As this is a work in progress conference, abstracts will be evaluated based on the potential research contribution and the ability to stimulate interest and discussion at the conference.

A limited number of doctoral fellowship will be available, pending funding by NSF. Doctoral students who want to apply for these fellowships should submit a 2 page research proposal based on a database of electronic commerce transactions. This database will be made available early 2005. The research proposal should address theoretical, empirical or methodological questions and problems related to the database.
