Free Issue of New Journal: Foundations and Trends in Web Science

William Grosso @ October 2, 2006

The inaugural issue of Foundations and Trends in Web Science, entitled A Framework For Web Science is available for free download.

Each issue of FnTWEB is an in-depth review of a single topic. This one appears (it’s 130 pages and I haven’t read it yet) to be making the case for “Web Science” as a discipline. Since the authors are mostly from the world of semantics (Tim Berners-Lee, Wendy Hall, Jim Hendler, Kieron O’Hara, Nigel Shadbolt and Danny Weitzner), I’d expect a significant amount of semantic web content and theory.

Full disclosure: I wrote and reviewed some of the papers cited in the references.
