**************************************************************************** 1st International Workshop on Crowdsourced Web Engineering (CroWE'12) http://crowe.ethz.ch http://crowe.ethz.ch/
SHORT DESCRIPTION: Crowdsourcing techniques have been proposed to address different aspects of web engineering ranging from the generation of content to the design and adaptation of web sites. At the same time, many Web 2.0 platforms have been designed around crowdsourcing models that enable the functionality to be extended through community-developed applications or plugins. Here, potential security issues have gained particular attention among researchers. Recently, a number of researchers have also begun to look at the use of crowdsourcing to support the evaluation of not only web sites and their interfaces but also various tools that form part of the design and development process. The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers who have applied crowdsourcing in a diversity of ways in order that they may learn from the experience of others and to stimulate discussion with a view to fostering new research ideas.
Papers may be related to any aspect of crowdsourced engineering. The following list gives an indication of possible topics: -) crowdsourcing models and architectures -) methods for crowdsourced web engineering -) crowdsourced design -) crowdsourcing for web site augmentation and adaptation -) novel forms of crowdsourcing content -) crowdsourcing linked data -) crowdsourcing web search -) use of crowdsourcing in evaluation -) end-user development approaches for the web -) applications of the crowdsourced paradigm in web engineering -) quality aspects of crowdsourcing -) security issues in crowdsourced systems -) usability issues in crowdsourced systems

*************************************************************************************************************** 3rd Workshop on Semantic Personalized Information Management - Linking Social and Semantic Web (SPIM'12) 2012.spim-workshop.org http://2012.spim-workshop.org/
SHORT DESCRIPTION: The Third Semantic Personalized Information Management (SPIM 2012) workshop aims at investigating new challenges and requirements for web based information systems that arise with the advent of the Social and Semantic Web. The scope ranges from new solutions how to manage the huge amount of information (user generated content, semantic web sources, etc.) in the back-end to new systems and algorithms to take advantage of the information to improve improve the quality of search results and thus better satisfy the users? information need. Of special interest are practical approaches and ideas that aggregate social data from different applications or combine data from social platforms like Facebook with Semantic Web and Linked Open Data (http://linkeddata.org/) sources to enhance the performance of WIS. While there is already research done in the area, no standards or commonly agreed techniques are available. This workshop can prepare the ground for a standardized techniques allowing data and knowledge exchange between IR systems.

****************************************************************************************** 4th International Workshop on Lightweight Integration on the Web (ComposableWeb'12) https://sites.google.com/site/composableweb2012/
SHORT DESCRIPTION: ComposableWeb aims to bring together researchers and practitioners with different research interests and belonging to communities like Web Engineering, Service Engineering, Business Process Management, Databases, Semantic Web, Software Composition, and Software Engineering and to advance the state of the art in the areas of web mashups, lightweight composition, and service-oriented computing. The workshop particularly aims to stimulate the discussion of key issues, approaches, open problems, innovative applications, engineering practices, and novel trends.

********************************************************************************************* 8th International Workshop on Model-Driven and Agile Engineering for the Web (MDWE'12) http://mdwe2012.pst.ifi.lmu.de http://mdwe2012.pst.ifi.lmu.de/
SHORT DESCRIPTION: What will be the future of Web development? Web Engineering is a specific domain in which systematic development is needed and therefore approaches such as model-driven and agile development can be successfully applied. Existing model-based Web engineering approaches already provide methods and tools for the design and development of most kinds of Web applications. They address different concerns using separate models (navigation, presentation, workflows, etc.) and come with model compilers that produce most of the application?s Web pages and logic based on these models. In practice, however, most of these Web Engineering proposals do not fully exploit all the potential benefits of Model-driven Engineering (MDE), such as complete platform independence, metamodeling, and model transformations.
The MDE paradigm offers advantages such as technology independent models and (partially) automatic generation of applications, but also well-known problems as maintenance of the models. Thus, there are defenders of MDE and also defenders of alternative paradigms such as agile development processes. We want to raise a lively and constructive discussion on pro and cons, and how in practice we can benefit from both a MDE and an agile development process. Find some responses at the workshop!
Following the Internet trends, we want to focus the workshop on two main topics and how MDE and/or an agile process could help in the development, evolution and maintainability of social Web and social enterprise apps as well as multi-device, mobile and rich Web applications (RIAs).

********************************************************************* 3rd Workshop on The Web and Requirements Engineering (WeRE'12) http://gplsi.dlsi.ua.es/congresos/were12/
SHORT DESCRIPTION: The International Workshop on the Web and Requirements Engineering (WeRE) intends to be an international event for exchanging ideas on both using Web technologies as a platform in the requirements engineering field, and applying requirements engineering in the development and use of Web applications. Papers focused on new domains and new experiences with the connection between requirements engineering and the Web are also highly encouraged. The workshop will be a forum for researchers, designers, and users who are related to the combination of these two main topics.

************************************************************************ 3rd International Workshop on Quality in Web Engineering (QWE'12) http://www.dsic.upv.es/workshops/qwe12
SHORT DESCRIPTION: The main objective of the workshop is allowing participants to discuss and get to know the most innovative and advanced experiences for guaranteeing the quality of Web applications and content, and the role that Web Engineering methods can play in this task. This includes, among other aspects, focusing on the way in which Web Engineering methods can be further empowered by taking into account quality principles and by integrating sound quality assessment techniques that have proven their effectiveness (review guidelines, usability models, usability evaluation methods, usability checkers, accessibility verifiers, information quality tools, logging tools, automatic metric capture tools, statistical tools, etc.). The workshop will particularly try to encourage the discussion on new emergent issues related to current trends in the creation of modern Web applications, commonly referred to as Web 2.0 applications.

********************************************************************************************************* 1st International Workshop on User Interface Description Languages in Web Engineering (UIDL-WE'12)
SHORT DESCRIPTION: The UIDL-WE workshop is aimed at investigating open research/development issues in the area of user interfaces of web applications based on a User Interface Description Language (UIDL). First, fundamental aspects need to be addressed in order to rigorously pave the way for a sound UIDL: models, meta-models, languages, and notations. Second, applied aspects of a UIDL should also be discussed in order to properly operationalize the UIDL: (meta-)model editors, computer-aided software engineering, software support, rendering engines and code generators, but also requirements for industrial uptake, including case studies in real-world conditions and the investigation of factors that may determine acceptance by developers. Third, in order to ensure the quality of web applications for the end-users, some evaluation needs to be conducted in order to assess the quality of the application that can be derived by the UIDL, especially from the viewpoint of visual quality, usability, and efficiency.
