INDUSTRIAL TRACK
In order to establish better connections to actual applications of web technologies in E-Commerce, EC-WEB 2016 features an Industrial Track. We are looking for papers describing products or real-world applications of advanced web technologies for E-Commerce. Papers from companies are especially welcome. Authors of papers in the industrial track will have the opportunity to prodvide a demonstration of their technology in the main session of the conference. Papers for the industrial track should have a length of no more than 6 pages using the Springer LNBIP style. Being of a more practical nature, the requirements for evaluation and literature work are much lower for this track. Papers will be evaluated on the innovative nature of the technology/application presented and the real-world impact.
