Call for Papers
---------------
The pervasive connectivity of the Internet and the powerful
architecture of the WWW have created a tremendous opportunity for
conducting business on the Internet. The terms e-commerce and
e-business have been used to describe those systems and technologies
that make conducting business on the Internet possible. The purpose of
this workshop is to identify and explore the technical and related
technology managment issues and solutions for e-commerce on the
Internet. In particular, we are interested in the infrastructure
issues to facilitate e-commerce and Web-based information systems.
The WECWIS workshop is to be a forum for free exchange of ideas.
Particularly welcome are reports on experimental work, experience
with current standards and position papers addressing current and
future needs of e-commerce and Web-based information systems.
Topics for submission include but are not limited to:
+ Personalization and content management for e-commerce systems
