Research and Industry Tracks

There will be two independent tracks for Research and Industrial papers with a different set of evaluation criteria. The authors must clearly indicate the track to which the paper is being submitted.


Research Papers: The conference is soliciting original research papers on all aspects of Web information systems engineering. Submitted papers will be judged according to their scientific merits and evaluated on significance, originality, technical quality, and exposition.

Industrial and Application Papers: WISE 2009 encourages submissions covering the application of Web information systems engineering in practice, including papers describing innovative implementations, novel applications, and major improvements to the state-of-practice. The papers submitted to this track can range from a few page extended abstract to a full paper. The track will also include a small number of invited visionary papers.

Publication

The proceedings of WISE 2009 will be published in two separate volumes by Springer in its Lecture Notes in Computer Science series, one volume for all papers accepted by the main conference, and one volume for all papers accepted by all WISE workshops. A special issue of the World Wide Web Journal is scheduled in 2010 for publishing extended versions of selected WISE 2009 papers.
