In the context of Software Engineering, design methods and methodologies were introduced to provide mechanisms to develop these complex Web applications and Rich Internet Applications (RIAs) in a systematic way. Most of these methodologies focus on implementation and neglect other tasks such as requirement analysis and quality management. Although the relevance of Requirements Engineering is well known these techniques should be studied more widely in the Web Engineering community due to the complexity of Web Engineering problems (such as the changing nature of the stakeholders or the diversity of Web-related requirements). On the other hand, Requirements Engineering is a complex activity whose success depends on stakeholder participation. Therefore, the techniques proposed in the Requirements Engineering field need a more participative environment to support effective collaboration among stakeholders. In this context, the Web (especially Web 2.0 applications), provide a convenient platform that supports active participation by stakeholders in the Requirements Engineering process.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Topics of primary interest include, but are not limited to:<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>--------------------------------------------------------------<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>* Web requirements elicitation and analysis<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>* Web requirements validation and verification<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>* Web engineering methods and tools supporting requirements<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>* Traceability in Web requirements<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>* Modeling of requirements, goals, and domains in Web<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>* Prototyping and simulation in Web requirements<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>engineering<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>* Evolution of Web requirements<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>* Alignment between business and Web requirements<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>* Social, cultural, and cognitive factors in Web requirements engineering<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>* User-centred analysis and design<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>* Domain specific modelling languages addressing requirements for Web applications<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>* Web 2.0 and requirements engineering<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>* Requirements engineering for rich internet applications<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>* Model-driven approaches based on requirements models for Web applications and rich internet applications<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>All papers must be submitted through the journal’s Manuscript Central system:<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/iet-SEN<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>There are two ways of submission: invitations to the authors of higher quality papers accepted at the WeRE workshop<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>(http://gplsi.dlsi.ua.es/congresos/were10), and an open call for papers.
