Pressing Topics

We especially welcome research and engineering work in the following areas:

• development of intelligent and generic Web API clients
• dynamic combination of and interactions between Web APIs
• novel hypermedia-driven solutions
• tackling the tremendous growth and heterogeneity of APIs
• analyses and studies around the practical, social, and economic factors surrounding the development, use, and adoption of Web APIs and mashups
• novel solutions for the automated discovery and profiling of Web APIs
• Web APIs, platforms, and protocols for the Web of Things including, e.g., Web APIs and RESTful protocols for constrained devices and real-time applications, novel solutions for finding and mashing up distributed “things” over the Web, etc
• lessons learned from the deployment, maintenance and evolution of Web APIs and mashups

All Topics

In addition to the topics above, this workshop is also open to:

• applications of the REST architectural style to novel domains
• design patterns and anti-patterns for Web APIs
• automated Web API composition
• inverted REST (REST for push events)
• integration of pub/sub with REST
• REST-compliant transaction models
• frameworks for Web API implementation and consumption
• modeling Web APIs
• resource design and granularity
• evolution, versioning, and extension of Web APIs
• REST-protocols beyond HTTP
