Parallel and Distributed Processing and Applications - ISPA 2005 Workshops: ISPA 2005 International Workshops, AEPP, ASTD, BIOS, GCIC, IADS, MASN,

This book constitutes the refereed joint proceedings of eight internationl workshops held in conjunction with the Third International Symposium on Parallel and Distributed Processing and Applications, ISPA 2005, held in Nanjing, China in November 2005 (see LNCS 3758).

The 71 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 323 submissions. The papers of the eight workshops are very specific and contribute to enlarging the spectrum of the more general topics treated in the ISPA 2005 main conference. Topics addressed are applications and economics of peer-to-peer systems (AEPP 2005), advanced storage technology and autonomic distributed data (ASTD 2005), bioinformatics (BIOS 2005), grid computing in china (GCIC 2005), information assurance in distributed systems (IADS 2005), mobile ad-hoc and ubiquitous sensor networks (MASN 2005), service grid computing and applications (SGCA 2005), and Web information systems and applications (WISA 2005).
