The International Conference on Web Services (ICWS) has been a prime international forum for researchers, academics, businesses, industry, and standard bodies to exchange the latest fundamental advances in the state of the art and practice of Web-based services, identify emerging research topics, and define the future of Web-based services. Internet/Web-based services are not limited to Web services. In 2018, we will strive to advance the largest international professional forum on Internet/Web-based services. The Proceedings of ICWS is EI indexed.
ICWS 2018 will co-locate with the following service-oriented sister conferences: the 11th International Conference on Cloud Computing (CLOUD 2018), the 15th International Conference on Services Computing (SCC 2018), the 7th International Congress on Big Data (BigData Congress 2018), the 7th International Conference on AI & Mobile Services (AIMS 2018), and the 14th World Congress on Services (SERVICES 2018). The 6 co-located theme topic conferences will all center around "services," while each focusing on exploring different themes (web-based services, cloud-based services, Big Data-based services, services innovation lifecycle, AI-driven ubiquitous services, and industry-specific services as well as emerging service-oriented technologies).
