Aims and Goals: The explosive growth
of Web resources and Internet applications in the recent
years has created an urgent need for effective and
efficient tools for information consumers, who must be
able to easily locate, manage and exchange disparate
information, ranging from unstructured documents and
pictures to structured, but often hidden,
record-oriented data. Though many research works are
done, with papers published in various conferences and
journals, the systematic and authoritative books such as
monographs, handbooks, reference books and textbooks in
these areas are in high demand for academic, graduates
and industry practitioners. This new series is a timely
response to the recent advances in Internet and World
Wide Web technologies and it is aimed is to promote the
research and development activities and disseminate
knowledge in web information systems in particularly,
and in internet applications in general.
Books in the series should have a strong focus on
internet/Web-based applications and, in particularly,
web-related problems such as web personalization, web
commerce, web agents, web services, web-based
multimedia, web-based information systems, web search
engines, web-related performance evaluations,
web-supported cooperative work, and universal design.
