ICWE aims to bring together researchers and practitioners from various disciplines in academia and industry to tackle the emerging challenges in the engineering of Web applications. \nThe Demos and Posters track provides a unique forum to showcase artifacts, present early results, discuss ongoing research, and obtain feedback from members of the Web Engineering community. \nIn line with this year\u2019s theme, \u201cAgentic & Autonomous Web: Design, Trust, Accessibility, Sustainability and Performance\u201d, we particularly welcome contributions that explore how Web systems can be designed for and in collaboration with autonomous agents; how to engineer trust, security, privacy and explainability; how to advance accessibility and sustainability; and how to meet performance demands across the edge-cloud continuum. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>DEMOS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Demonstrating artifacts<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Demos track offers an interactive forum to present prototypes, tools, frameworks, datasets, benchmarks and running systems. Submission may report on open-source or commercial solutions. We particularly encourage interactive demos with which attendees can engage hands-on. Submissions are evaluated for novelty, technical quality, clarity, relevance to ICWE, interactivity and contributions to the year\u2019s theme. Each paper should include a section describing the exact demonstration scenarios, which include how the audience will experience the demo, the artifact\u2019s functionalities, user interface and interaction options.  \nNote that demonstrations should be brief so that they can be shown repeatedly.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>POSTERS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Presenting and demonstrating theoretical work (demonstration of concepts, theories and algorithms)<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Posters track invites researchers, practitioners, PhD students to submit original research ideas, preliminary results, experience reports and vision papers.
