The 15th International Conference on Information Integration and Web-based Applications & Services (iiWAS2013)
in Conjunction with The 11th International Conference on Advances in Mobile Computing and Multimedia (MoMM2013)
2 - 4 December 2013 Vienna, Austria
http://www.iiwas.org/conferences/iiwas2013/ email: iiwas2013@iiwas.org
**** Important Dates ***** 15 July 2013: Full Papers (10 pages), Short papers, Demos and work in progress (4 pages) 22 September 2013: Acceptance Notification 10 October 2013: Camera-Ready Papers and Authors Registration 02-04 December 2013: Conference Dates
***** Publication ***** ALL accepted iiWAS2013 papers will be published by ACM International Conference Proceedings Series (ISBN: and the supplemental proceedings and indexed appropriately in all major indexes. Selected high-quality papers will be invited to be published, after revision and extension, in special issues of international journals and in a book in the Book Series: Atlantis Ambient and Pervasive Intelligence published by Springer.
**** Scope ***** WWW has been driving global information integration. In spite of the many applications in all domains of our societies: e-business, e-commerce, e-learning, e-science, and e-government, for instance, as well as the tremendous advances by engineers and scientists, the seamless integration of information and services remains a major challenge. The current shared vision for the future is one of semantically rich information and service oriented architectures for global information systems. This vision is at the convergence of progress in technologies such as XML, Web services, RDF, OWL, of multimedia, multimodal, and multilingual information retrieval, and of distributed, mobile and ubiquitous computing. iiWAS2013 is the 15th in the series of the highly successful International Conference on Information Integration and Web-based Applications & Systems. Recently, iiWAS has been held in Bali (2012), Ho Chi Minh City (2011), Paris (2010), Kuala Lumpur (2009), and Linz (2008). This year, Vienna will host iiWAS2013.The iiWAS conference series have provided opportunities to researchers, graduate students, and industry practitioners to address recent research results and current industry practices in the area of information integration and web-based applications.
We invite two types of submissions: Full Technical Papers and Short Position Papers. A Full Paper should provide solid conceptual and theoretical foundation and substantial support for its results and conclusions as a significant contribution to the field. A Position Paper could be "demo" or ~work in progress, i.e., it reports the latest emerged ideas, approaches, methodologies, systems and application scenarios but have not yet been fully implemented and/or undergone extensive evaluation.

**** Submission Guidelines **** Papers must be submitted electronically in PDF through the conference website. Submitted papers must not substantially overlap with papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal or a conference with proceedings. Submitted papers will subject to stringent peer review by at least three members of the international program committee and carefully evaluated based on originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of exposition. Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings to be published by ACM. Format requirements for submissions of papers are: - Maximum 10 pages, including the abstract (no more than 150 words), all figures and references for Full Technical papers. - Maximum 4 pages, including the abstract (no more than 150 words), all figures and references for Short Position Papers. - All submissions should be formatted according to ACM guidelines (http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates) - Submissions must be entered into the Submission System (https://www.easychair.org/account/signin.cgi?conf=iiwas2013)
