Distributed Applications and Interoperable Systems

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th IFIP WG 6.1 International Conference on Distributed Applications and Interoperable Systems, DAIS 2007, held in Paphos, Cyprus in June 2007. It covers current research in context-awareness, adaptation, mobility, distributed applications and peer-to-peer computing, all of which relate to the sustainability of distributed applications and integrated systems.
