Dear Gustaf Neumann,

Let me kindly inform you that the 10th International Conference on Web Information Systems and Technologies (WEBIST 2014 - http://www.webist.org/), to be held in Barcelona, Spain (April 3 - 5, 2014) is now welcoming the submission of position papers whose deadline is scheduled for next January 3.

A position paper presents an arguable opinion about an issue. The goal of a position paper is to convince the audience that your opinion is valid and worth listening to, without the need to present completed research work and/or validated results. It is, nevertheless, important to support your argument with evidence to ensure the validity of your claims. A position paper may be a short report and discussion of ideas, facts, situations, methods, procedures or results of scientific research (bibliographic, experimental, theoretical, or other) focused on one of the conference topics. Please check further details about position papers submission at the conference website (http://www.webist.org/GuidelinesTemplates.aspx).

The conference will be sponsored by the Institute for Systems and Technologies of Information, Control and Communication (INSTICC) and technically sponsored by the European Research Center for Information Systems (ERCIS). INSTICC is Member of the Workflow Management Coalition (WfMC) and Object Management Group (OMG). The Science and Technology Events (SCITEVENTS) will be the Logistics Partner.

WEBIST is interested in promoting high quality research as it can be confirmed by last year acceptance rates, where from 143 submissions, 19% were accepted as full papers. Additionally, 21% were presented as short papers and 20% as posters.

Submitted papers will be subject to a double-blind review process. All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, under an ISBN reference, on paper and on CD-ROM support. A short list of presented papers will be selected so that revised and extended versions of these papers may be published by Springer in the LNBIP series. The proceedings will be submitted for indexation by Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (ISI), INSPEC, DBLP, EI (Elsevier Index) and Scopus. All papers presented at the conference venue will be available at the SCITEPRESS Digital Library (http://www.scitepress.org/DigitalLibrary/). SCITEPRESS is member of CrossRef (http://www.crossref.org/).

We also would like to highlight the possibility to submit to the following Satellite Workshops and Special Session: Workshops: - 1st International Workshop on the Latest Advances in Information Systems for the Enterprise 2.0 - ISE2.0 2014 (http://www.webist.org/ISE.aspx) - International Workshop on Internet of Facts - IoF 2014 (http://www.webist.org/IOF.aspx)

Special Session: - Special Session on Business Apps - BA 2014 (http://www.webist.org/BA.aspx)

Workshops, Special sessions, Tutorials as well as Demonstrations dedicated to other technical/scientific topics are also envisaged: companies interested in presenting their products/methodologies or researchers interested in holding a tutorial are invited to contact the conference secretariat. Workshop chairs and Special Session chairs will benefit from logistics support and other types of support, including secretariat and financial support, to facilitate the development of a valid idea. The conference program features a number of Keynote Lectures to be delivered by distinguished world-class researchers, including those listed below.

Please check further details at the WEBIST conference website (http://www.webist.org/). Should you have any question please don't hesitate contacting me.

WEBIST 2014 will be held in conjunction with CSEDU (http://www.csedu.org), SMARTGREENS (http://www.smartgreens.org) and CLOSER (http://closer.scitevents.org) in Barcelona, Spain. Registration to WEBIST will enable free attendance to any sessions of CSEDU, SMARTGREENS and CLOSER conferences as a non-speaker.

Kind regards, Carla Mota WEBIST Secretariat
