DiversiWeb 2011.

DiversiWeb 2011, the First International Workshop on Knowledge Diversity on the Web, co-located with WWW2011 in Hyderabad, India, provided an interdisciplinary forum for researchers and practitioners to present and discuss their ideas related to the challenges posed by diversity on the Web. We addressed a wide array of interdisciplinary questions, which need to be tackled in order to preserve the fragile balance between a world that is continually converging and growing together, the rich diversity of the global society, and the dangers of fragmentation and splintering.
