Sommario/riassunto

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th IFIP WG 6.1 International Conference on Distributed Applications and Interoperable Systems, DAIS 2013, held in Florence, Italy, in June 2013, as part of the 8th International Federated Conference on Distributed Computing Techniques, DisCoTec 2013. The 12 revised full papers and 9 short papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 42 submissions. The papers present state-of-the-art research results and case studies in the area of distributed applications and interoperable systems focussing on cloud computing, replicated storage, and peer-to-peer computing.

Sommario/riassunto

The Internet and the World Wide Web (WWW) play an increasingly imp- tant role in our today’s activities. More and more we use the Web to buy goods and to inform ourselves about cultural, political, economical, medical, and scienti?c developments. For example, accessing ?ight schedules, me- cal data, or retrieving stock information become common practice in today’s world. Many people assume that there is no one who “watches” them when accessing this data. However,sensitive userswho accesselectronic shops(e-shops) might have observedthat this assumptionoften isnot true. In many cases,E-shopstrack the users’“accessbehavior”when browsingthe Web pagesof the e-shopthus deriving “accesspatterns” for individual shoppers. Therefore,this knowledge on access behavior and access patters allows the system to tailor access to Webpagesforthatusertohis/herspeci?cneedsinthefuture.Thistrackingof usersmightbeconsideredharmlessand“acceptable”inmanycases.However, in cases when this information is used to harm a person - for example about the person’s health problems - or to violate his/her privacy (for example ?nding out about his/her ?nancial situation), he/she would like to be sure that such tracking is impossible to protect the user’s rights.
