ICWE 2004 invites original submissions in the mentioned and other related areas. Contributions may fall in any of the following categories: papers, demonstrations, workshops and tutorials. The submissions may cover new approaches in Web Engineering, novel viewpoints and challenges on any aspect of Web Engineering, reports on the implementation or deployment of advanced Web projects in an industrial or application scenario, or descriptions of Web Engineering education experiences.
Paper Submission Guidelines
Proceedings of the conference will be published
by Springer Verlag in its
Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.
Paper submission is in two stages. Authors first submit an abstract via the conference Web site by the abstract deadline.
Then, full manuscripts are submitted via the conference Web site by the paper deadline, as PDF files.
Papers may not exceed 14 pages in the Springer LNCS format.
Submitted papers may be accepted either as full papers, or as
short papers or poster presentations. All the accepted submissions
will be included in the Conference Proceedings.
Additionally, an extended version of selected papers will be
published in a special issue of the Journal of Web Engineering
after the conference.
Tutorials
Tutorial proposals should be submitted to the Tutorial Co-Chairs, Jose Emilio Labra and Klaus Turowski. Tutorials may last for a half-day (3 hours) or for a full day (6 hours) and they are held on 26-27 July.
A tutorial proposal should include the following:
- Title of the tutorial.
- Names and affiliations of the organizer(s), identifying one primary contact.
- Abstract of the tutorial with no more than 200 words, describing its main topics, goals and expected outcomes.
- A table of contents, with short explanations of the contents of individual sections.
- Target audience. Specify assumed background knowledge needed, if any.
- Facilities, equipments, equipment and materials required.
- Biography of each presenter.
Workshops
We solicit workshop proposals promoting highly interactive forums for exchanging novel results, conducting in-depth discussions on a specific topic, or coordinating work among representatives of a technical community.
Workshop proposals should be submitted to the Workshop Co-Chairs, Sara Comai and Maristella Matera.
Workshops last for one full day and will be held on 26-27 July.
A workshop proposal should include the following items:
- Name of the workshop.
- Names and affiliations of the organiser(s), identifying one primary contact.
- Abstract of the workshop with no more than 200 words, including its major topics, goals and expected outcomes.
- Motivation: relevance of the workshop to the Web Engineering community; references to other workshops organised by the proponents at ICWE or other conferences.
- Desired number of workshop participants (minimum and maximum).
- Facilities, equipment and materials required.
- A preliminary version of the Call for Papers that the organisers must prepare if the workshop is accepted, briefly describing the goals of the workshop, the maximum number of accepted participants, the participant selection process, the schedule of the activities, and the organisers' biography.
- A short description of the activities that Workshop organisers propose to undertake for he success of the workshop upon acceptance of the proposal.
Demonstrations and Posters
ICWE 2004 provides a forum for discussing ongoing work: We welcome poster reports on in-progress projects, demonstrations of early versions of software tools and products, invitations to cooperate on new project ideas, etc. Please submit poster and demonstration proposals to the Poster and Demo Chair, Alexander Knapp. Accepted posters and demonstrations will have a two-page description in the Conference Proceedings.
