ACM Web Science Conference
The Web Science Conference has been held every year since 2009 and has been an ACM conference since 2011. It is a vibrant, interdisciplinary gathering engaging not only with Web Science researchers but with related and complementary disciplines. The series has produced over 800 publications that have been downloaded more than 300,000 times. The conference is organized each year by a local team of volunteers in different parts of the world in collaboration with the Web Science Trust.
Web Science Trust Test of Time Award
The Web Science Trust Test of Time Award was inaugurated in 2022 and is awarded annually to the author or authors of a paper presented at a previous Web Science Conference that has stood the test of time through continued relevance and impact. The recipients of the award receive a monetary prize, and an engraved award.
