Publications
RS see the provision of a suite of vehicles for publication and discourse as a major role for the group. We have put considerable effort into reviewing the research support role of CITRENZ. One outcome of this a recognition that we have a series of publications, each of which meets a different need:
New Zealand Journal of Applied Computing and Information Technology |
Fully refereed journal with the aim of publishing articles, which report applications, development and research in the area of Computing and Information Technology. Published articles have New Zealand authors and/or content that relates to New Zealand. The Journal is published twice a year. |
|
Conference proceedings serves dual role of promoting excellence in IT research and teaching, and supporting a developing research culture. Has three themes: computing education, computing research and computing practice. Has three levels of publication, fully refereed papers, reviewed papers and poster papers. The conference proceedings are a substantial document of around 500 pages |
|
This has been discontinued. An archive of previous editions is maintained on this site. |
Conferences
Each year CITRENZ holds an annual conference, the first of which was held in Wellington in 1988. Subsequent conferences have been held in various locations including Rotorua, Christchurch, Wanganui, New Plymouth, Nelson, Auckland, Dunedin, Napier, Hamilton, and Palmerston North, Christchurch, Tauranga, and Wellington.
The conference delegates are predominantly computing and information technology lecturers and industry representatives from throughout New Zealand. The 2013 conference will be held in Hamilton and we expect to have 170 delegates with an increasing participation from the international community. The 2014 Conference will be held in Wellington.
