Refereed Track: E* Applications: E-Commerce, E-Business, E-Science, E-Learning, and E-Communities
Internet and Web technologies enable new kinds of applications, usually prefixed with a capital "E" as in E-Commerce, E-Business, E-Learning, E-Science or E-Communities. Such applications are often innovative in their use of these technologies, and support or require new work, learning, or business scenarios. Furthermore, focusing on these E* Applications leads to new requirements as well as to interesting new technologies or extensions of existing ones.
The E* Applications Track, new to WWW in 2006 (but unifying and broadening previous WWW tracks in each of E-commerce, education, and applications), provides a unique forum both for describing innovative E* applications and scenarios as well as innovative technologies for these areas. We welcome both studies relating to specific classes of E-Applications and to cross-cutting issues. Relevant topics include, but are not restricted to, the following:
- Service architectures — distributed Web services; web service
technologies for e-Applications; embedded Web applications; Web
standards for E* applications; data protection, security and
privacy; ubiquitous computing and internet appliances;
recommendation, reputation, and trust systems; computational
markets for information services
- Data management — distributed and peer-to-peer-based learning
and e-science repositories; scientific metadata and annotation
management; intellectual property and digital rights management;
data and workflow provenance for e-Science; scientific data
quality and data cleaning
- Web-based collaboration and communities — collaboration and
communities in web-based educational environments; E-Learning and
E-Science community portals; synchronous collaboration
applications and services; enterprise collaboration tools;
- Web-based workflows — scientific workflows and process
automation; automated shopping, trading, and contract management;
supply chains, coalitions, and virtual enterprises;
web-based problem-solving environments for e-Science
- Ontologies and the semantic web — semantic Web and ontologies
for E* applications; ontology-based data integration and
analysis; languages for describing goods, services and contracts;
ontologies for e-Science; conceptual modeling and knowledge
represention for e-Science
- Data processing and visualization — data mining, analysis, and
statistics in e-Science; scientific visualization and e-Science
- Experience Reports and case studies for E* applications
