Current Trends in Web Engineering
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-workshop proceedings and the doctoral symposium of the 12th International Conference on Web Engineering, ICWE 2012, held in Berlin, Germany, in July 2012. The volume contains four workshops and a doctoral consortium, each focusing on specific research issues that contribute to the main themes of the ICWE conference: MDWE 2012: Eighth International Workshop on Model-Driven and Agile Engineering for the Web, ComposableWeb 2012: Fourth International Workshop on Lightweight Integration on the Web, WeRE 2012: Third Workshop on the Web and Requirements Engineering, QWE 2012: Third International Workshop on Quality in Web Engineering.
Advances and New Trends in Environmental and Energy Informatics
This book presents the latest findings and ongoing research in the field of green information systems and green information and communication technology (ICT). It provides insights into a whole range of cross-cutting topics in ICT and environmental sciences as well as showcases how information and communication technologies allow environmental and energy efficiency issues to be handled effectively. The papers presented in this book are a selection of extended and improved contributions to the 28th International Conference on Informatics for Environmental Protection dedicated to ICT for energy efficiency. This book is essential and particularly worth reading for those who already gained basic knowledge and want to deepen and extend their expertise in the subjects mentioned above.
Citizen Science
Citizen science, the active participation of the public in scientific research projects, is a rapidly expanding field in open science and open innovation. It provides an integrated model of public knowledge production and engagement with science. As a growing worldwide phenomenon, it is invigorated by evolving new technologies that connect people easily and effectively with the scientific community. Catalysed by citizens’ wishes to be actively involved in scientific processes, as a result of recent societal trends, it also offers contributions to the rise in tertiary education. In addition, citizen science provides a valuable tool for citizens to play a more active role in sustainable deve...
European Research Activities in Cloud Computing
What’s new in the European research and development area? Cloud computing is a provision model where whatever computing resource that can be thought of (machines, network, software solutions, applications) is provided as a service. This new paradigm has changed the center of gravity of computing in both the academic and industry environments, but despite the considerable efforts and investments, there are critical problems that are not yet solved. The research and development community involved in distributed computing is searching for viable solutions that will increase the adoption of the cloud. This is the case of the collaborative work done by multi-national teams in the context of the...
