Data management systems play the most crucial role in building large application s- tems. Since modern applications are no longer single monolithic software blocks but highly flexible and configurable collections of cooperative services, the data mana- ment layer also has to adapt to these new requirements. Therefore, within recent years, data management systems have faced a tremendous shift from the central management of individual records in a transactional way to a platform for data integration, fede- tion, search services, and data analysis. This book addresses these new issues in the area of data management from multiple perspectives, in the form of individual contributions, and it outlines future challenges in the context of data management. These contributions are dedicated to Prof. em. Dr. Dr. -Ing. E. h. Hartmut Wedekind on the occasion of his 70th birthday, and were (co-)authored by some of his academic descendants. Prof. Wedekind is one of the most prominent figures of the database management community in Germany, and he enjoys an excellent international reputation as well. Over the last 35 years he greatly contributed to making relational database technology a success. As far back as the early 1970s, he covered—as the first author in Germany— the state of the art concerning the relational model and related issues in two widely used textbooks “Datenbanksysteme I” and “Datenbanksysteme II”. Without him, the idea of modeling complex-structured real-world scenarios in a relational way would be far less developed by now. Among Prof.

Parallel and Distributed Computing, although within the focus of computer s- ence research for a long time, is gaining more and more importance in a wide spectrum of applications. These proceedings aim to demonstrate the use of p- allel and distributed computing concepts in di?erent application scenarios and attempt to spark interest in novel research directions to advance the embracing model of high-performance computing research in general. The objective of the workshop is to speci?cally address researchers coming from universities, ind- trial and governmental research organizations, and application-oriented com- nies in order to close the gap between purely scienti?c research and the app- cability of the theoretical ideas to real-life problems. The individual research contributions published in the current proceedings are the result of three di?- entworkshopsthatwerecollocatedattheEuro-ParConference2006inDresden, Germany: The CoreGRID Workshop on Grid middleware The general focus of the CoreGRID workshop is ?rst to assess the current state of the art; second, new approaches in the areas of Knowledge and Data M- agement on Grids, Grid Resource Management and Scheduling, and Grid Inf- mation, Resource and Work?ow Monitoring Services are discussed; and ?nally, it serves as a forum for the exchange of ideas between the user community and Grid middleware developers. The CoreGRID workshop on Grid middleware was organizedbytheCoreGRIDNetworkofExcellenceandtookplaceAugust28-29, 2006, in Dresden. CoreGRID is the European Research Network for streng- ening and advancing scienti?c and technological excellence in the area of Grid and Peer-to-Peer technologies.
