The LAWA project organizes an one-day workshop with researchers using 
(or planning to use) the Web as a corpus for their studies. The focus is 
on methods, tools, and platforms for big-data analytics, including 
requirements on and experiences with such technologies. Topics of 
interest include but are not limited to: Web dynamics, history, and 
archives; text mining and contents classification, temporal/longitudinal 
studies, scalable methods (e.g., cloud-based map-reduce), large scale 
data storage, community detection and evolution.

The workshop will have presentations by participating researchers and 
big-data users, including the LAWA project team. Emphasis will be on 
experience-sharing and discussing mutual interests in big-data analytics 
for the temporal Web. The workshop is free of charge and open to public, 
but registration is compulsory by sending an email to:
