Background, Aims and Scope

EC-Web is an international scientific conference series devoted to technology related aspects of e-Commerce and e-Business. The 16th edition of the conference, EC-Web 2015, will take place in Valencia, Spain in September 2015 and will serve as a forum to bring together researchers and practitioners to present and discuss recent advances in their fields. We solicit original scientific contributions in the following areas:

Search, Comparison and Recommender Systems
Preference representation and reasoning
Semantic-based Systems, Ontologies and Linked Data
Agent-based Systems, Negotiation and Auctions
Social Web and Social Media in E-Commerce
Computational Advertising
E-commerce Infrastructures and Cloud-based Services
Service modellin and engineering
Business Processes, Web Services and Service-Oriented Architectures
E-Business Architectures
Emerging Business Models, Software as a Service, Mobile Services
Security, Privacy and Trust
Case Studies
TRACKS

EC-Web 2015 will feature a set of tracks:

T1) Search, Comparison and Recommender Systems (Track chair: Tommaso Di Noia, Politecnico di Bari, Italy) In the Web era, resource retrieval techniques play a fundamental role in helping the users to deal solve the issues related to with information overload. Today's Ssearch engines are no more longer working just solely on pure text/keyword analysis and this is the case also for modern matchmaking systems where both the query and the resources to be retrieved share a common structure . Their results are computed and enriched by putting together, e.g.for example, link-based data, user preferences as well as information encoded in the so- called knowledge graphs. The same happens for personalized information filtering systems such as recommender systems where pure collaborative and content-based approaches are hybridized with each other combined and fed by rely on many various different and and diverse data sources in order to improve not just only the accuracy of the results but also their novelty, diversity, and serendipity.

T2) Linked Data and Semantic Web (Track chair: Asunción Gómez Pérez, UPM Madrid, Spain) Semantic Web Technologies, in particular data markup standards provide an established means for publishing and partially exchanging structured data on the web. Large numbers of websites have started to markup their content using standards such as Microdata, Microformats, and RDFa allowing search engines like Google, Bing, and Yahoo! use the markup to improve their search results. MeanwhileAt the same time, this is widely used in the e-commerce area where structured product offers descriptions are published online and sometimes even linked to general purpose schemas such as schema.org and or product classifications such as eClass. Theis special track ius concerned with methods, tools, and analyseis covering the life-cycle of structured descriptions for e-commerce on the web including their creation, maintenance, integration and use.

T3) Service Modelling and Engineering (Track chair: Jorge Cardoso, University of Coimbra, Portugal) Service-oriented systems are becoming pervasive in business. Cloud services, Web APIs, and process models are examples of building blocks, which can be assembled combined to implement service systems. While previous past approaches often relied on SOA patterns to architect systems, we can nowadays observe an increased there is the need now to provide theories, techniques, and tools to support service engineering in order to be able to to develop superior more effective and efficient services. This track will present focuses on current research on in the fields of service modeling (e.g., SLA, pricing models, legal terms, standardization efforts, process models), service analytics (e.g., capacity planning, metered usage, service compliance, performance optimization, reliability prediction), and frameworks to compose services (e.g., Cloud BPM and end-to-end integration).

T4) Social Web and E-Commerce (Track chair: Conor Hayes, DERI, Ireland) The sSocial wWeb has become an important platform for activities connected to online e-commerce on the web. Social networks, review sites and blogs have become important places to market products and analyze their reception by lareger groups of customers. Thus, methods for creating and analyzing user behaviour and interaction on the sSocial wWeb becomes more and more increasingly important. Topics of interest in this context special track include targeted advertisement, opinion mining and sentiment analysis as well as trust and reputation mechanisms in social online social networks and their impact on user behaviour.

T5) Agents-based E-Commerce Systems (Track chair: Terry R. Payne, University of Liverpool, UK) The use of personal agents in e-Ccommerce settings comes with many advantages as it enables customers to monitor offers and place purchase orders or bids without having to be online constantly. In particular in setting s with multiple buyers and sellers, the agent-metaphor provides an adequate model to provide automatic support for market participants. This special trakckc is concerned with the use of multi-agent technology in e-commerce and the topics include: agent architectures, communication protocols, and negotiation mechanisms for performing e-commerce business transactions on the web. We are interested in theoretical papers as well as in reports on practical implementations of agent-based e-commerce systems .on the web.

T6) Open Track This track is open to submission concerning any topic related to the intersection of e-commerce and web technology not covered by any of the above mentioned tracks. Depending on the topic of the paper and the availability of reviewers, the pProgramm chairs will take the freedom to forward assign papers to a special track if in case it fits there.

T7) PhD Track In this track we especially encourage submissions on early results by first and second year PhD students. The papers should present the PhD topic project outline of the candidate including and cover the Problem Statement, the State of the Art, and Pplanned cContribution as well as information on first results achieved. Reviewers will be instructed to treat evaluate these papers different thant full research papers and provide as much constructive feedback as much as possible. The first author of papers submitted to this track has to be a PhD Student.
