Objectives
The World Wide Web is a huge repository of global information that holds
tremendous potential for data mining and knowledge discovery. The
diversity and vastness of data on the WWW is both a challenge and an
impediment to the successful application of traditional mining and
knowledge discovery tools and techniques. The crossover from traditional
data sources to the WWW demands new notions, frameworks and solutions
to address changes and developments required in equipping data mining
and knowledge discovery tools and techniques for the new arena.

This workshop intends to bring together researchers in the knowledge
discovery and mining areas and in the management of unstructured and
semi-structured Web data areas to assess current methodologies and explore
new notions, approaches, and issues in web data mining and warehousing.
We invite papers that are relevant, but not limited to the following areas
of interest:

* Data models of Web data
* Knowledge discovery and web mining techniques
* Models and frameworks of Web mining process
* Web data extraction, cleaning and transformation
* Query languages and systems for Web data
* Structure discovery in Web information
* Data integration over the Web
* Web warehousing
* Web data visualization
* Website management
* View maintenance of Web data
* Emerging standards for Web data management
