SCOPE
***************

The increased complexity of Web sites and the explosive growth of
Web-based applications has turned their design and construction into
a challenging problem. Nowadays, many companies have diverted their
Web sites into interactive, completely-automated, Web-based
applications (such as Amazon, on-line banking, or travel agencies)
with a high complexity that requires appropriate specification and
verification techniques and tools. Systematic, formal approaches to
the analysis and verification can address the problems of this
particular domain with automated and reliable tools that also
incorporate semantic aspects.

We solicit original papers on formal methods and techniques applied
to Web sites, Web services or Web-based applications, such as:

* rule-based approaches to Web system analysis,
  certification, specification, verification,
  and optimization
* algebraic methods for verification and certification
  of Web systems
* formal models for describing and reasoning about Web sites
* model-checking, synthesis and debugging of Web sites
* analysis and verification of linked data
* abstract interpretation and program transformation
  applied to the semantic Web
* intelligent tutoring and advisory systems for
  Web specifications authoring
* Web quality and Web metrics
* Web usability and accessibility
* Testing and evaluation of Web systems and applications

The WWV series provides a forum for researchers from the communities
of Rule-based programming, Automated Software Engineering, and
Web-oriented research to facilitate the cross-fertilization and the
advancement of hybrid methods that combine the three areas.

The previous WWV editions were: WWV'09 (Hagenberg, Austria),
WWV'08 (Siena, Italy), WWV'07 (Venice, Italy), WWV'06 (Paphos, Cyprus),
and WWV'05 (Valencia, Spain).
