Introduction:

Over last two decades, web has grown from being a mostly text based
medium for disseminating information to play an important role in all
facets of our lives. Some of the exciting developments in recent
years include ubiquitous e-commerce, explosion of multimedia that
rivals radio and television, and social networking. This workshop
aims to bring together researchers that are responding to these new
developments with the application of data, text, and multimedia
mining tools to solve the latest and forthcoming problems posed by
the world wide web.

Papers describing theoretical aspects, prototype systems, tools and
techniques, applications, and surveys of existing work (position
papers), as well as future directions are welcome. The topics may
include but are not limited to the following list:
