Welcome LA-WEB 2009
LA-Web 2009 is the seventh conference aimed at providing a venue in Latin America for researchers and technologists from around the world to present, demonstrate and discuss the latest Web developments. LA-WEB 2009 is endorsed by the IW3C2 International World Wide Web Conference Committee. Previous conferences have been hosted in Vila Velha, Brazil (2008), Santiago de Chile (2007), Cholula, México (2006), Buenos Aires, Argentina (2005), Sao Paolo, Brazil (2004) and started in Santiago in 2003. This year, LA-WEB will be co-located with CLIHC 2009, and the venue will be Universidad Autónoma de Yucatán (UADY), located in the beautiful city of Mérida , Yucatán, México.
LA-WEB’2009 will accept contributions in the following categories:
- Full Papers (up to 8 pages). We invite high quality papers describing original work in all areas of Web research. Papers should properly place the work in the context of the conference’s theme, cite related work, and clearly indicate its innovative aspects and contributions to the field. Full papers will appear in proceedings published by the Conference Publishing Services (CPS).
- Short Papers (up to 4 pages). Authors are invited to submit work in progress whose preliminary results are of interest to the LA-WEB Conference audience. This year, LA-WEB offers a great venue to show exciting new work that is in an early stage and can benefit from discussion with colleagues. Accepted submissions will be available to LA-WEB community in the electronic Conference Proceedings (CD with ISBN)
Due CPS regulations if there is a paper that the author does not present at the conference will not be included in the digital libraries.
