-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
IMPORTANT DATES:
Submission: 07 April 2018 (Extended)
Notification: 28 April 2018
Camera-ready: 15 May 2018
Workshop date: 05 June 2018

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The goal of this workshop is to bring the attention of researchers to the opportunities and challenges involved in engineering Web of Things.
In the new era of computing, the development is evolving from traditional client-server architectures to decentralized multi-device architectures in which people use various types of Web-enabled client devices, and data is stored simultaneously in numerous devices and cloud-based services. This new era will dramatically raise the expectations for device interoperability, implying significant changes for software architecture as well.
EnWoT 2018 aims at attracting contributions related to the subject at different levels, from modelling and design to engineering. Foundational contributions, as well as concrete application experiments are sought.
The workshop welcomes submissions describing unpublished research, as well as deployment experiences on various topics related to engineering web of things as outlined below.

TOPICS:
Topics of interested include but are not limited to:

  *   Software architectural styles and patterns for connecting objects to the World Wide Web
  *   Engineering smart objects on the web
  *   Real-time communication with physical objects
  *   Web-based discovery, search, composition, and physical mashups
  *   Self-adaptive and self-management approaches
  *   Semantic web and Linked open data
  *   Web of Thing and Internet of Everything
  *   Challenges for Big Data and IoT applications
  *   Architectures and Framework for smart devices connection
  *   Liquid User Experience
  *   Internet of People
  *   Liquid Software
  *   Liquid Web of Things
  *   Security, access control, and sharing of physical things on the Web
  *   Cloud platforms and services for the Web of Things
  *   Application of Web tools and techniques in the physical world (REST, HTML5, social networks)

SUBMISSION & SPECIAL ISSUES:
Workshop papers are 12 pages long and peer-reviewed; post-workshop proceedings to appear in Springer's LNCS series.
Submission of papers should be submitted as a single PDF file in the EasyChair system [https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=enwot2018]
Submissions will be judged on novelty, relevance, clarity of presentation, and correctness. Authors of accepted submissions are required to present their work.

Selected regural papers may be invited to submit the extended version to a special issue on a "Special Issue on Smart Technologies and Architectures enabling the Internet of Things" in the Future Generation Computer Systems Journal.
Moreover, selected demo papers may be invited to extended version to a "Special Issue of Wiley's Internet technology Letters".
Expanded conference papers must include at least 30% new scientific material.
