The purpose of the 7th International Conference on Web Information Systems and Technologies (WEBIST) is to bring together researchers, engineers and practitioners interested in the technological advances and business applications of web-based information systems.

The conference has five main tracks, covering different aspects of Web Information Systems, including Internet Technology, Web Interfaces and Applications, Society, e-Business and e-Government, Web Intelligence and Web Security.

WEBIST focuses on real world applications; therefore authors should highlight the benefits of Web Information Systems and Technologies for industry and services, in addition to academic applications.

Ideas on how to solve business problems, using web based information systems and technologies, will arise from the conference.

Papers describing advanced prototypes, systems, tools and techniques and general survey papers indicating future directions are also encouraged.

Both technological and social-oriented papers are accepted.

All papers must describe original work, not previously published or submitted to another conference.

Accepted papers, presented at the conference by one of the authors, will be published in the Proceedings of WEBIST.

Acceptance will be based on quality, relevance and originality.

Both full research reports and work-in-progress reports are welcome.

There will be both oral and poster sessions.
