As of 2009, the discipline of Web engineering is a well-established and mature ?eld of research within the software engineering, database, information te- nology, and other related communities. By its very nature, Web engineering is, therefore, a multidisciplinary ?eld that is beginning to establish ties even o- side the domain of computer science. As a discipline, Web engineering system- ically applies the knowledge of Web science to the development and evolution of Web-based applications and systems. This volume contains the proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Web Engineering (ICWE 2009), which was heldinSanSebasti an, SpaininJune2009. TheICWEconferencesareamongthe most essential events of the Web engineering community. This fact is manifested both by the number of accomplished researchers that support the conference series with their work and contributions as well as by the continuing patr- age of several international organizations dedicated to promoting research and scienti?c progress in the ?eld of Web engineering. ICWE 2009 followed conferences in Yorktown Heights, NY, USA; Como, Italy;PaloAlto, CA, USA;Sydney, Australia;Munich, Germany;Oviedo, Spain; Santa Fe, Argentina; and Ca ceres, Spain. With San Sebasti an as this year's venue, the conference series visits the country where it was originally launched in 2001 for the third time. This year's call for papers attracted a total of 90 submissions from 33 co- triesspanningallcontinentsofthe worldwithagoodcoverageofallthe di?erent aspects of Web engineering.
