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.
