Deadline for submissions: February 17, 2009


The main way of accessing content on contemporary Web is by means of general purpose search engines. However, for reasons such as: password protection, FORM based interfaces and usage of dynamic client-side technologies (JavaScript, AJAX, Flash, Adobe Air, and others), a significant portion of modern Web content cannot be indexed and thus is unavailable to the majority of Web users.
In many cases these information sources that cannot be indexed, known altogether under the names of Deep Web, Hidden Web or Invisible Web, are better structured and of better quality than indexable surface Web sources. First attempts to index deep Web sources are proving that the task is not trivial.
Started recently, Deep Web research combines challenges from several active research areas including information retrieval, information extraction, hypertext, Web engineering, data integration, database technologies and the Semantic Web.
The goal of this workshop is to bring researchers and practitioners together to explore the issues and challenges related to domain dependent and independent Deep Web empirical studies, methodologies and techniques of accessing and processing Deep Web content, as well as their real life applications.
