From the reviews:
“The papers propose methods for clustering the data flow based on the description of transactions. … Although the conference scope is wide, the target audience … include middleware researchers such as software and application developers, industry researchers and engineers, academia and Internet providers, and Web administrators. … this volume is unique and cannot be compared to any other of its kind. It covers a wide range of information systems implementations and their management. Overall, I recommend this collection to academics … .” (Jolanta Mizera Pietraszko, ACM Computing Reviews, September, 2010)
