Quantum computing is rapidly progressing from theoretical promise to practical implementation, offering significant computational advantages for tasks in optimization, simulation, cryptography, and machine learning. However, its integration…
This volume contains the proceedings of SOS 2009, the Sixth Workshop on Structural Operational Semantics held on the 31st of August 2009 in Bologna, Italy as a affiliated workshop of CONCUR 2009, the 20th International Conference on…
Modern systems are increasingly connected and more integrated with other existing systems, giving rise to \textit{systems-of-systems} (SoS). An SoS consists of a set of independent, heterogeneous systems that interact to provide new…
This paper is about a new way for programming distributed applications: the service-oriented one. It is a concept paper based upon our experience in developing a theory and a language for programming services. Both the theoretical…
The global economic recession and the shrinking budget of IT projects have led to the need of development of integrated information systems at a lower cost. Today, the emerging phenomenon of cloud computing aims at transforming the…
Service-Oriented Computing (SOC) enables the composition of loosely coupled service agents provided with varying Quality of Service (QoS) levels, effectively forming a multiagent system (MAS). Selecting a (near-)optimal set of services for…
Service-oriented computing (SOC) is an interdisciplinary paradigm that revolutionizes the very fabric of distributed software development applications that adopt service-oriented architectures (SOA) can evolve during their lifespan and…
We develop formal foundations for notions and mechanisms needed to support service-oriented computing. Our work builds on recent theoretical advancements in the algebraic structures that capture the way services are orchestrated and in the…
Because Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is one of the hottest topics that is currently gaining momentum, and the number of its adopters (both business and IT executives) is increasing in a tremendous manner, it is really a must to…
The Second International Workshop on Programming Language Approaches to Concurrency and Communication-cEntric Software (PLACES) was co-located with ETAPS 2009 in the city of York, England. The workshop took place on Sunday 22nd March 2009.…
Pervasive computing appears like a new computing era based on networks of objects and devices evolving in a real world, radically different from distributed computing, based on networks of computers and data storages. Contrary to most…

Service-Oriented Computing is a paradigm that uses services as building blocks for building distributed applications. The primary motivation for orchestrating services in the cloud used to be distributed business processes, which drove the…
At present organizations try to achieve competitive advantages using information technology (IT). Organizations not only use Information technology to manage their internal operations but also to collaborate with their customers and…
The widespread emergence of the Internet as a platform for electronic data distribution and the advent of structured information have revolutionized our ability to deliver information to any corner of the world. Although Service Oriented…
The vision of augmenting computing capabilities of mobile devices, especially smartphones with least cost is likely transforming to reality leveraging cloud computing. Cloud exploitation by mobile devices breeds a new research domain called…
Open Science is a paradigm in which scientific data, procedures, tools and results are shared transparently and reused by society as a whole. The initiative known as the European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) is an effort in Europe to provide…
We introduce a newly designed undergraduate-level interdisciplinary course in scientific computing that aims to prepare students as the next generation of research-oriented computational scientists and engineers. The course offers students…
