WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION
 
   Ubiquitous Web Systems and Intelligence represents a vision of
   the future whereby information access and discovery is available
   everywhere. It integrates concepts of ubiquitous and pervasive
   computing, web computing, and intelligent systems, whereby people
   are able to access information from various sources using
   ubiquitous devices. These information may also be in a form of
   knowledge discovered by the system. All of these are realized
   through the use of ambient intelligence in which humans are
   surrounded by an environment which is sensitive and responsive
   to them.
