Sommario/riassunto

This book presents the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Conference on Advanced Information Systems Engineering, CAiSE '96, held in Herakleion, Crete, Greece, in May 1996. The 30 revised full papers included in the book were selected from a total of some 100 submissions. The book is organised in sections on CASE environments, temporal and active database technologies, experience reports, interoperability in information systems, formal methods in system development, novel architectures, workflow management and distributed information systems, information modelling, object-oriented database design, and semantic links and abstraction.
