Call for Research & Industrial Papers

The International Conference on Web Engineering (ICWE) aims at promoting scientific and practical excellence on Web Engineering, and at bringing together researchers and practitioners working in technologies, methodologies, tools, and techniques used to develop and maintain Web-based applications leading to better systems, and thus to enabling and improving the dissemination and use of content and services through the Web. The Eleventh International Conference on Web Engineering (ICWE 2011) will be held from June 20 - 24, 2011 in Paphos, Cyprus. A special focus of ICWE 2011 will be Web Data Engineering.

* Extension: Papers must not be longer than 15 (fifteen) pages.
* Format: Paper submissions should be formatted according to the LNCS guidelines.
* Submission place: Authors can use the ICWE 2011 Submission site at EasyChair for the submission of their manuscripts: http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icwe2011



Publishing of accepted works

The conference proceedings will be published by Springer-Verlag as an LNCS volume. Official proceedings will include: full papers (15 pages), demonstration papers (4 pages) and posters (4 pages). Workshop papers and contributions to the doctoral consortium will be published separately.

Final versions of accepted papers must strictly adhere to the LNCS guidelines and must include a printable file of the camera-ready version, as well as all source files thereof. No changes to such formatting rules are permitted. Authors of accepted papers must also download and sign a copyright form that will be made available on the Web site of the conference. Each paper requires at least one full registration to the main conference.

Selected papers will be invited to submit an extended version to a special issue of the JCR-indexed Journal Of Web Engineering (pending agreement).
