*Objectives*

The 2014 edition of the Web2Touch Track aims at presenting alternatives
to address interoperability and distributed knowledge management problem
for Web systems. Web is a living medium for collaborating where people
and computer systems can produce, share and consume information. However
several challenges for facilitating this collaboration are still open
issues, including: storage, retrieval, extraction, and visualisation of
huge quantity of information, interlinking, ontology classification and
fusion of data. New technologies and standards have been developed to
provide more efficient use of the Web, in particular for using Cloud,
Linked Open Data, and Big Data. The key of the success of the Internet
is the amount of published data available for everyone, but it also
generates problems to end-users. Researchers are continuously working to
improve Webapplications and Web contents structures. The aim is to avoid
overwhelming human beings with irrelevant data, and to increase the
capability of systems to correctly interpret Web contents, so improving
the quality of the interaction on the Web. This Track is intended as a
forum to discuss theories, models, techniques and user requirements
related to how a number of semantic interoperability problems can be
coped with to achieve commercial, scientific, and sociological success
for Web applications. Web2Touch is an open forum for studies in
multiples application domains including, for example, Web science,
eHealth, eGov, eLearning and collaborative systems in general.

*Topics*

Include but are not limited to:
- Case studies of social semantic web.
- Ontology and knowledge reuse and integration.
- Semantic web services.
- Experiences in semantic web support for collaborative work and
  business.
- Knowledge creation, management, maintenance, and validation.
- Collaborative ontology evolution and alignment.
- Web for sentiment analysis.
- Privacy issues in knowledge sharing.

- Submission deadline: Feb 4, 2014
- Notification of acceptance: March 14, 2014
- Camera ready papers: April 11, 2014
- Conference: June 23-25, 2014

(author kits and paper templates available for *Word*, *PDF*, and
*LaTeX*<http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html>)
and must be submitted in PDF format. Papers can be up to 6 pages. By

The previous editions of Web2Touch received publication from many
countries, the accepted ones are available in the IEEE Xplore. The best
papers from 2008 to 2010 were published in special issues of the
International Journal of Web Portals (2011, vol 1 and 3) and extended
versions of selected papers from Web2Touch 2012 were published in
Concurrency and Computation (2013), Web Portals (2013) and Collaborative
Enterprise (2013) .
