Fifth International Workshop on Web APIs and Service Mashups, Lugano, Switzerland
14 September 2011 - 14 September 2011
Switzerland
The Fifth International Workshop on Web APIs and Service Mashups will take place on 14 September 2011 in Lugano, Switzerland.
Service computing and Web 2.0 are converging into a programmable and 'composable' internet. Part of this programmability is the result of the multitude of web APIs (application programming interface), which allow the combination of multiple services into new applications known as mashups. Mashups deliver new data and services with a combined higher value than the original components. While mashups have taken off and thousands of them are currently available for various purposes, various challenges and opportunities remain.
The event will seek to bring together stakeholders from academia and industry. Topics that will be discussed are set to include:
- languages, frameworks, and platforms for the design, implementation, testing and maintenance of services mashups, including dynamic languages and frameworks;
- new approaches to mashup construction;
- novel applications of mashups, e.g. mobile, location-aware or wiki-based mashups;
- specific service mashup application and technology examples with respect to design, architecture, implementation, usability and user-experience;
- mashups within social software platforms;
- mashups within and across enterprises;
- duality of service and mashups: performance, reliability, security or other non-functional aspects;
- analysis of and experience with services mashups (creation, deployment, and usage) from social and economical perspectives.For further information, please visit: http://mashups2011.aifb.kit.edu/index.php(opens in new window)
