The 3rd International Workshop on

Web Services and Social Media (WSSM-2014)

In conjunction with The 17th International Conference on NBiS-2014

Salerno, Italy

September 10-12, 2014

Call for Papers

After Ajax technology had released Web applications from using screen transition on communicating with a Web server, Web applications got closer to desktop applications. Now we can utilize WebSocket and WebRTC. Both of them are technologies for bidirectional communication. And we can also benefit from asm.js, which is a technology for making JavaScript run faster. Furthermore, WebGL enable us to develop a faster 2d/3d graphics application with the Web. Web applications might be able to be substituted for the desktop applications.

International Workshop on Web Services and Social Media (WSSM) encompasses a wide range of topics in the research, design, and implementation of Web related things, especially, social activity on the Internet. The first workshop on WSSM-2012 was held in Melbourne, Australia. The second workshop on WSSM-2013 was held in Gwangju, Korea. And this time, the 3rd workshop on WSSM-2014 will be held in Salerno, Italy in conjunction with the 17th International Conference on NBiS-2014. This workshop provides an international forum for researchers and participants to share and exchange their experiences, discuss challenges and present original ideas in all aspect of Web Services and Social Media. You are invited to submit papers in these areas and welcome to participate in the workshop. We welcome not only research papers on WSSM technology but also reports on requirements of WSSM in all domains. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
