WWV fosters the cross-fertilisation and advancement of hybrid methods from such areas. During its ten earlier editions, the WWV workshop series has established itself as a lively, friendly event with many interactions and discussions. Companies, organisations and institutions offer most of their electronic services as sophisticated web-based applications. Prominent examples include e-business, e-learning, e-government, and e-health services. The increased complexity and the explosive growth of such applications has made their design and implementation a challenging task, not in the least because at the same time quality, accessibility, security, and privacy issues need to be considered. Systematic, formal approaches to their specification and verification are needed to address the problems those systems by means of automated and effective techniques and tools. WWV welcomes papers of either theoretical or applied interest, including case studies or experience reports, in all areas of web-based systems (web services, cloud platforms, Internet-of-Things, social networks, big data), including but not limited to: - Formal methods and rigorous software and system engineering - Declarative, rule-based approaches - Product line and feature-oriented engineering - Programming and design languages and models - Specification, certification, transformation, and synthesis - Analysis, verification, model checking, and debugging - Semi-structured data, linked data, and semantic web - Security, trust, privacy, reputation, confidentiality, and integrity - Quality, metrics, usability, and accessibility - Testing, evaluation, and optimisation - Middleware, platforms, and frameworks INVITED SPEAKERS Dino Distefano Queen Mary University, London, UK & Facebook Jose Meseguer University of Illinois, USA SUBMISSION We solicit the submission of original, unpublished contributions not under review for publication elsewhere. Contributions are expected to comprise research papers (with novel, previously unpublished results), experience reports of real-world applications, tool descriptions, and short papers (e.g. describing work-in-progress or exploratory ideas). All papers must be prepared in LaTeX using the EPTCS style - Full papers should not exceed 16 pages (typeset 11 points). - Short papers should not exceed 8 pages. Additional details omitted due to space limitations may be included in a clearly marked appendix. Submissions must describe work unpublished in refereed venues, not submitted elsewhere. Contributions should be submitted in PDF format through the EasyChair online submission system. Submission of a paper involves a firm commitment that at least one of the authors will attend and participate in the workshop in case the paper is accepted. PUBLICATION All contributions will be evaluated by at least three reviewers, chosen by the Program Committee. The PC will select the best papers based on their quality, relevance to the workshop, and potential to instigate discussion. All accepted papers will be included in the post-proceedings, which will be published as a volume of the EPTCS series (WWV publication is indexed in DBLP and Microsoft Academic Research, among other important repositories). An open call for a special issue in a highly-reputed journal on the topic of the WWV workshop is envisaged. This has been common practice for WWV since 2009.

WWV'14 in Vienna, Austria; July 18, 2014 (FLoC workshop associated to IJCAR, as part of VSL 2014) homepage: http://wwv2014.isti.cnr.it/ The previous 10 editions of WWV attracted high-quality papers that were published in ENTCS (WWV'05, WWV'07 and WWV'08), by IEEE (WWV'06) and in EPTCS (WWV'11, WWV'12, WWV'13 and WWV'14). After WWV'09, a special issue of the Journal of Symbolic Computation on the topics of the WWV was organized. Similarly, a special issue of the Journal of Applied Logic was organized after WWV'10 and special issues of the Journal of Logic and Algebraic Programming were organized after WWV'11, WWV'12 and WWV'13. A special issue of the Journal of Logical and Algebraic Methods in Programming dedicated to WWV'14 and the CAV workshop VPT'14 is forthcoming.
