25 January 2006 Special Issue of Engineering Letters on Web Engineering.
We all work daily with the Web. Nearly everything we do in regard to business and even for some of us everything we do with our private lives, involves interaction of some kind with the web. Yet too often we take pretty much for granted the enormous technical accomplishments of the last decade or two -- what's resulted in the web that, for a case in point, allows you to read this very document so conveniently.

But as "the Web" grows and grows, inevitably there will be a need to re-think some of the ways things are done. The vast majority of web applications (which includes "everything" web related) has been don in an ad hoc fashion, and this increasingly is leading to subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) problems of quality, reliability, and maintainability.

Thus a special issue of Engineering Letters devoted to "Web Engineering" seems to be a idea whose time is 100% right. Organized by Prof. Spiros Sirmakessis and Prof. Giannis Tzimas, both at Computer Technology Institute, in Patras, Greece, the special issue promises to have a range of topics on web engineering ranging from collaborative web application development to legal issues. Here is where you get the Special Issue Details.
