The 2009 Workshop Web2Touch - living experience through web
in conjunction with

The 2009 IEEE/WIC/ACM International Conference on Web Intelligence

Milan – Italy
September 15 – 18, 2009

Welcome Message

This workshop intends to explore a multidisciplinary view of the web, demonstrating the full potential of the web as a live medium for sharing and collaboration. Joining their complimentary views, researchers can exchange their savoir-faire on architectures that are applied to similar problems. The web has evolved toward the semantic web, web services, social web and probably should appear in a “web of things”. Consequently the recently emerging web activities are characterized by collaboration, the sharing and creation of knowledge, woven into social and business networks. The techniques of representation, management, sharing, and knowledge discovery begin to face technical interoperability, semantics and organizational challenges.  This workshop aims to introduce state-of-the-art semantic technologies, web services and knowledge engineering in order to discover solutions for collaborative work in Science, Health, and Web Science. This workshop will be held in conjunction with the 2009 IEEE/WIC/ACM International Conference on Web Intelligence (WI 2009). We welcome contributions from academic researchers and industries.
