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.
<br>
<br>
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
