CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVES
Web-based systems are becoming increasingly popular as tools for user-driven
access to information and services.
During the last years, Web-based systems are increasingly used to access
Multimedia Systems, Information Systems,
Legacy Applications and, more recently, High-Performance Computational
Environments (Problem Solving Environments).
In Web-based Multimedia Systems and Information Systems, the linking mechanism
of hypermedia offers users
a large amount of navigational freedom so that it becomes necessary to guide
users during navigation.
Moreover, the classes of users to be dealt with are becoming increasingly
heterogeneous
(novices, experts, specialists, technicians, and so on) due to the worldwide
deployment of applications.
Other important sources of heterogeneity are: the kind of user terminal, the
available network bandwidth,
the desired "resolution" to observe contents, etc. Therefore, such systems
should be able to adapt themselves
to different user requirements (and wishes) and should manage, in an
integrated way, the sources of heterogeneity,
not only at the application level, but along all the layers of a modern Web-
based system.
In the last years, Web Based Systems are also emerging as high-level
interfaces to large-scale distributed computing
platforms, called Computational Grids, that provide dependable, consistent,
and pervasive access to
high-end computational resources. Such systems, known as Grid Portals, are
defined to be Web-based
application servers enhanced with the necessary software to communicate to
grid services and resources.
Grid Portals provide application scientists a customized view of software and
hardware resources from a Web browser.
In Grid Portals, the main issues are the integration between web and grid
technologies, allowing the transparent
access to Problem Solving Environments through web interfaces. Moreover,
specialized Grid Portals,
allowing the installation, the management and the monitoring of grid
environments will represent an
interesting application area.
A main issue that will drive the development and evolution of the Grid raises
from the enormous amount of data and
information available coupled with the intelligent use of Grid resources and
applications.
Future generation Grids will include knowledge discovery and knowledge
management functionalities,
for user's needs and system management, and will employ semantic modeling of
user's tasks, available services,
and data sources to support high level services and dynamic services finding
and composition.
The main goal of the Track is is to discuss some of the current and future
technologies that will impact on architectures,
computational models and applications of Modern Web and Grid Systems,
with a particular emphasis on the use of semantics and knowledge discovery
techniques and services
addressing main design and management aspects.

SUBMISSION DETAILS
Papers should be original and contain contributions of theoretical or
experimental nature.
Moreover, papers concerning tools and architectures for industrial
applications will also be considered.
Interested authors should submit their 5 pages PDF/PostScript paper
(IEEE Proceedings format, http://computer.org/cspress/instruct.htm),
by using the START submission system
(http://www.softconf.com/start/ITCC2004/submit.html)
before November 21, 2003.
Instructions about submission can be found at
http://www.ee.unlv.edu/~it/Files/start/how-to-submit.html.
If electronic submission is not possible for some reasons, please send the
paper to the Track Chair via email.
Authors that have submitted their paper using email should not resubmit it.
Note: The Proceedings will be published by IEEE Computer Society.
A special issue of an international journal is being planned consisting of
selected papers from this conference.
Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit an extended version for
the journal.
