Since the start of the International Workshop on Web Caching and Content Distribution (WCW) in 1996, it has served as the premiere meeting for researchers and practitioners to exchange results and visions on all aspects of content caching, distribution, and delivery. Building on the success of the previous WCW meetings, WCW 2004 extended its scope and covered interesting research and deployment areas relating to content services as they move through the Internet. This year, WCW was held in Beijing, China. Although it was the first time that WCW was held in Asia, we received more than 50 high quality papers from five continents. Fifteen papers were accepted as regular papers and 6 papers as synopses to appear in the proceedings. The topics covered included architectural issues, routing and placement, caching in both traditional content delivery networks as well as in peer-- peer systems, systems management and deployment, and performance evaluation. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who submitted papers to WCW 2004 for their valued contribution to the workshop. This event would not have been possible without the broad and personal support and the invaluable suggestions and contributions of the members of the program committee and the steering committee.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 7th Joint International Conference on Service-Oriented Computing, ICSOC-ServiceWave 2009, held in Stockholm, Sweden, in November 2009. The 54 contributions to this volume, consisting of 37 full papers, 8 short papers and 9 demonstration papers, were carefully reviewed and selected from 228 submissions. The papers are arranged in topical sections on composition, discovery, design principles, customization and adaptation, negotiation, agreements and compliance, selection, platforms and infrastructures, security, modeling and design, validation and verification, reputation and ranking, and service management. This volume launches the new subline of Lecture Notes in Computer Science, entitled LNCS Services Science.

Welcome to ICSOC-ServiceWave 2009. This volume contains the research and demopapersselectedforpresentationattheSeventhInternationalConferenceon Service-Oriented Computing, which was held in Stockholm, Sweden, November 24-27, 2009. Continuing the tradition set in the previous six years, we are pleased to present a high-quality technical program.This year ICSOC ServiceWaveworked together to convey a world-leading and unique opportunity for academic - searchers and industry practitioners to report their state-of-the-art research ?ndings in service-orientedcomputing. The joint conference aims to foster cro- community scienti?c excellence by gathering experts from various disciplines such as distributed systems, software engineering, computer networks, business intelligence, service science, grid and cloud computing, and security. Consistent with the high quality of the conference, we received 228 paper submissions from a number of di?erent disciplines. Thirty-sevenpapers were - cepted as regular contributions, for a very competitive acceptance rate of 16%; eight further submissions were accepted as short papers. The programalso c- prisedninedemonstrationsofinnovativetoolsandprototypes.Alltheseelements contributed to a program that covered the many di?erent areas of the discipline and provided an up-to-date synthesis of the researchon service-orientedsystems and applications.

Many industrial applications built today are increasingly using emerging behavior engineering technologies: this book looks at various research and practical issues for researchers and students working in computer science and engineering, and for industry technology providers interested in behavior engineering and applications. Behavior Engineering and Applications encompasses intelligent and efficient computational solutions, including models, architectures, algorithms and specific applications, focused on processing, discovering, understanding and analyzing the behavior captured by the above data. Focusing on applying any engineering paradigm to systemically process, discover, understand and analyze these data, this book also addresses problems in a variety of areas and applications that related to behavior engineering. This book includes chapters derived from selected papers from The 2016 International Conference on Behavior Engineering (ICBE), as well as separate contributions the editors selected cutting-edge research related to behavior engineering.
