IWEB – The International Conference on Web Handling

IWEB provides an international forum on all things web handling for engineers and scientists from industry and academia interested in learning, exchanging technical information on new developments, innovations, and future directions.

Formerly coordinated by the Web Handling Research Center (WHRC) at Oklahoma State University. The WHRC closed in January 2020.
Many web handling colleagues that hosted and attended IWEB since 1991 are working to continue this important conference.

Even though the WHRC is closed, many of the valuable technical papers are available through the OSU library’s website (Click on the Proceedings Button).
