Call for Workshops Proposals

The workshop chair of iiWAS2009 invites proposals for workshops to be held in conjunction with the iiWAS conference.

The workshops are aimed to provide opportunities for researchers, professionals and students to meet and discuss selected topics on information integration and Web based applications and services.
Workshops will be either full day or half day. The workshops are part of the iiWAS conference and also part of the conference registration. At least one of the workshop organizers must commit to attend and run the workshop.
Workshops proceedings will be published by ACM and the Austrian Computer Society (OCG) books@ocg.at series. @WAS will also help workshop organizers finding high quality scientific journals interested in publishing extended versions of selected papers.
Workshop organizers will establish a workshop site. The workshop organizers will also manage the submission, review and notification processes, dissemination of the workshop, elaboration of the final program and edition of the workshop proceedings (the workshop chairs will be editors of the proceedings).
