***********************************************************

The International Conference on Web Engineering (ICWE) aims at promoting
scientific and practical excellence on Web Engineering, and at bringing
together researchers and practitioners working in technologies,
methodologies, tools, and techniques used to develop and maintain Web-based
applications leading to better systems, and thus to enabling and improving
the dissemination and use of content and services through the Web.

The Twelfth International Conference on Web Engineering (ICWE 2012) will be
held on July 23 - 27, 2012 in Berlin, Germany.

ICWE 2012 invites proposals for tutorials that will provide conference
participants with the opportunity to gain knowledge and insights in a broad
range of Web Engineering areas. Participants at the tutorials include
scientists and practitioners, who are seeking to gain a better
understanding of the technologies, methodologies, tools, and techniques
used to develop and maintain Web-based applications.

Proposed tutorials can be either half-day long (3 hours) or full-day long
(6 hours). Tutorial proposals should address issues related to the topics
of the conference. Topics not mentioned in the topics of interest list are
also encouraged as long as they are of special relevance to ICWE. Tutorials
that have less than 8 early registrants will face the risk of cancellation.

** Submission instructions **

Tutorial proposals must clearly identify the intended audience and its
assumed background. Proposals must be no more than 3 pages and must provide

intended length of the tutorial (3 or 6 hours) should also be indicated,
together with justification that a high-quality presentation will be
achieved within the chosen time frame. Proposals should also include
contact information and a brief bio of the presenters. If the tutorial has

been given and how it will be modified for ICWE 2012. In summary, tutorial
