 WISE 2024 - Calls for Special-Tracks
The 25th International conference on Web Information Systems Engineering (WISE 2024):

The year 2024 marks the 25th anniversary of the International conference on Web Information Systems Engineering which will be held at Qatar University (in Doha, Qatar), on 2-5 December 2024. WISE is a class A conference that has consistently consolidated its position over the years, as among the top conferences in the research areas around the Web, Data and Knowledge Management, and Information Systems.
WISE-2024 promises to be a special edition, as it will offer a rich scientific program involving special tracks on important and trendy research topics, demos, a PhD symposium for the junior scholars, workshops, as well as thought-provoking keynotes by high-profile researchers from top universities and corporations such as Microsoft, Google, Meta and an industrial exhibition on the Web to celebrate this 25th anniversary.

Call for Special-Tracks 
The WISE Special Topics is a new and important track of the WISE conference. It brings together researchers, practitioners, industry experts and government actors to present and discuss their recent research results and innovations in important and trendy research areas or topics in the broad areas of the web, data management and information systems. Expected special topics should have a particular importance and potentially touch the lives of people in important ways. 

Special topics will be presented in special sessions during the conference. The evaluation criteria and quality level of the main conference apply also to the papers received in the special topics track. Received papers must also belong to the area of the special topic they are submitted to. Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings.
