Aims & Scope
------------

At the core of the information revolution brought by the Web is the
ability to effectively and efficiently share and exchange information
virtually with anyone anytime anywhere. Yet, it is very hard to keep up
to date with the ever-increasing sophistication of the tools and
techniques available at the dawn of the 21st century for building the
future information society. Industrial, commercial, educational, and
information society institutions and organizations whose activities rely
more and more on information technology cannot afford to ignore the
latest technological and infra-structural development and trends of the
Internet. Business to consumer, business to business, and business to
government transactions, business intelligence, decision support at
every level of the enterprise are conducted competitively only when they
tap into the information resources offered by the world wide web and
when they leverage the latest tools and techniques available.

iiWAS2003 aims at providing a forum for the discussion and exchange of
ideas and information by researchers, students, and professionals on the
issues and challenges brought on by Internet technology for the
intelligent integration of information.
