This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10 th International Conference on Mobile Web Information Systems, MobiWIS 2013, held in Paphos, Cyprus, in August 2013. The 25 papers (20 full research papers, 4 demonstration papers, and one abstract of the keynote speech) presented were carefully reviewed and selected from various submissions. The papers cover the following topics related to mobile Web and Information Systems (WISs), such as mobile Web services, location-awareness, design and development, social computing and society, development infrastructures and services, SOA and trust, UI migration and human factors, and Web of Things and networks.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Conference on Web Engineering, ICWE 2013, held in Aalborg, Denmark, in July 2013. The 21 full research papers, 4 industry papers, and 11 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 92 submissions. The scientific program was completed with 7 workshops, 6 demonstrations and posters. The papers cover a wide spectrum of topics, such as, among others: web mining and knowledge extraction, semantic and linked data management, crawling and web research, model-driven web engineering, component-based web engineering, Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) and client-side programming, web services, and end-user development.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Rapid Mashup Challenge, RMC 2015, held on June 23, 2015, in Rotterdam, The Netherlands, in conjunction with the 15th International Conference on Web Engineering, ICWE 2015. The 2015 edition of the challenge is the first installment of a series of challenges that aim to engage researchers and practitioners in a competition for the best mashup approach. The 6 thoroughly reviewed contributions contained in this volume are extended versions of the initial proposals that served the authors to express their interest to participate in the challenge. The initial proposals have been used by the challenge organizers to select participants based on the interestingness and maturity of the proposals.

Mashups have become a significant software trend, reinterpreting existing web components and enabling novel, value-adding compositions. They also empower non-programmers to become developers. The authors provide the first comprehensive reference work on mashups, systematically covering key concepts and techniques in mashup design and development. They explore the synergies among various models at different abstraction levels and how these models translate into composition paradigms and architectures for development tools. The book balances scientific insights with practical technology applications. The first part introduces the theoretical and technological foundations for designing mashups and tools to aid in their development. The second part delves into specific aspects of mashups, discussing core component technologies, approaches, and architectural patterns, with a focus on model-driven architectures for tool-aided development. It also addresses development processes, composition paradigms for end-user development, and quality issues. This work appeals to a wide audience, including students, lecturers, and researchers seeking a comprehensive overview of mashup concepts and technologies. Practitioners like software architects will find valuable guidance on implementation concepts and development tools. A related website offers additional teaching materials for courses or self-study.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 11th International Conference on Business Process Management, BPM 2013, held in Beijing, China, in August 2013. The 17 regular papers and 8 short papers included in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 118 submissions. The papers are organized in 7 topical sections named: process mining; conformance checking; process data; process model matching; process architectures and collaboration; as well as alternative perspectives, and industry paper.

This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-conference proceedings of Current Trends in Web Engineering, ICWE Workshops 2015 which was held in June 2015 in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. The 16 revised full papers were selected form 23 submissions and cover topics on natural language processing for informal text, pervasive Web technologies, trends and challenges, and mining in the social Web
