Research papers are sought on all aspects of the World Wide Web, including
the technical, social, educational and commercial aspects. A paper might
describe and analyse a technical or application innovation. A paper might
be theoretical or analytical. A paper might be a think piece on the
implications of Web technology. The only criteria for acceptance of papers
at AusWeb99 will be quality and relevance to the AusWeb audience.
As always AusWeb papers will selected by peer review. Submissions will be

presentation time in favour of more question and discussion time. We will
