International World Wide Web Conference
Hyderabad (IN), February 2011 - The Web has had a glorious existence of over two decades and has revolutionized the way we work and live. It has been the catalyst for proliferating information across boundaries, enabling effective communication, and 24/7 service availability - all leading to the digital, information-based economy that we have today.
Yet in reality, its direct influence has reached only a small percentage of the human population. By virtue of being hosted in a growing developing country bubbling with innovation, this year's theme will highlight the need for expanding the horizons of the Web to become all inclusive and pervasive, reaching out to every human life.
The International World Wide Web Conferences Steering Committee (IW3C2) and the International Institute of Information Technology, Bangalore, India cordially invite participants to the twentieth International World Wide Web Conference, to be held in Hyderabad, India.
The World Wide Web Conference is the global event that brings together key researchers, innovators, decision-makers, technologists, businesses, and standards bodies working to shape the Web. Organized by IW3C2 since 1994, the conference series is the premier venue for academics and industry to present, demonstrate, and discuss the latest ideas about the Web, its infrastructure, relevant algorithms, and new innovative applications. It is most of all an annual opportunity for the international community to discuss and debate the state and the evolution of the Web.
The technical program for the five-day conference will include refereed paper presentations, plenary sessions, panels, poster, and demo sessions. The WWW2011 program will also include panels, tutorials, and workshops, a W3C track, a developers' track, a PhD symposium, and exhibitions.
Confirmed Keynote Speakers include Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam, Sir Tim Berners-Lee, and Christos H. Papadimitriou.
The WWW Conference series provides the world a premier forum for discussion and debate about the evolution of the Web, the standardization of its associated technologies, and the impact of those technologies on society and culture. The conferences bring together researchers, developers, users, and commercial ventures - indeed all who are passionate about the Web and what it has to offer.
The conferences are organized by the IW3C2 in collaboration with Local Organizing Committees and Technical Program Committees. The series provides an open forum in which all opinions can be presented, subject to a strict process of peer review.
