INTRODUCTION ------------ The WWW is now a familiar channel for information dissemination and gathering among people from all walks of life. The sheer variety and amount of information that may be obtained are staggering. Academics and researchers now have another avenue to publish their research and satisfy their quest for knowledge. Many are discovering and tapping vast amounts of information never dreamed of before. Team workers utilise the Web for remote collaboration. Corporations with business sense have established a Web presence to exploit the technology. The consumer has benefited from access to large amounts of dynamic data; this has also enabled comparison-shopping and assisted decision-making. Hence, the Web has become somewhat indispensable to many and for various reasons. The aim of this conference is to provide an international forum for researchers, professionals, and industrial practitioners to share their knowledge in the rapidly growing area of Web technologies. We invite submissions that address both fundamental issues of Web data management and issues related to the development and management of Web-based applications. Suggested topics include, but are not limited to:

* Deep/Hidden Web * Web Ontologies * Mobile Web Information Systems * Web Performance * Semantic Web * Web Query Languages * Web Agents * Web Security * Web Change Monitoring & Management * Web Services * Web Commerce * Web Tools & Languages * Web Data Model * Web Transactions * Web Information Retrieval * Web Visualization * Web Intelligence * Web Warehousing * Web Metrics * Web-Based Business Processes * Web Mining * XML & Semi-structured data
