description: The WWW8 Program Committee was in charge of selecting the technical papers that appear in these Proceedings. The committee was divided into six tracks, each with one or two vicechairs. 304 Submissions were received, which were extensively reviewed for originality, significance, technical soundness, and clarity of presentation. The review process culminated on January 28, 1999, in a meeting in which 48 papers were selected for presentation at the conference and inclusion in the Proceedings.The submission and review process were completely Web-based, supported by the excellent WitanWeb software package, developed by Dr. Howard Johnson at the National Research Council of Canada.The technical program is of high quality, and the more than 90 committee members and more than 60 additional reviewers provided close to 1,000 thoughtful and expert reports.
