25th Annual ACM Symposium on Applied Computing, Track on Web Technologies (Mar 2011, Taiwan)

25th Annual ACM Symposium on Applied Computing
Track on Web Technologies
21-25 March 2011, TaiChung, Taiwan

Web-related technologies are becoming more and more pervasive and powerful, with the advent of new exciting concepts, protocols, languages, and technologies such as Social Software, Web Services, the Semantic Web, AJAX.  Web applications are progressively evolving into rich and flexible environments where users can easily access documents, publish new content, share resources, and interact with others.  This new class of ubiquitous software systems is emerging, and fostering the evolution of new cooperation paradigms among people. Novel approaches and techniques, new tools and frameworks are needed to address the increasing complexity of these applications.  The Web Technologies track of ACM SAC aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners from industry and academia working on practical and foundational aspects of Web technologies as well as other technologies that in the Web have found new and unexpected application fields.
