This edition marks the tenth Middleware conference. The ?rst
conference was held in the Lake District of England in 1998, and
its genesis re?ected a growing realization that middleware systems
were a unique breed of distributed system requiring their own
rigorous research and evaluation. Distributed systems had been
around for decades, and the Middleware conference itself resulted
from the combination of three previous conferences. But the attempt
to build common platforms for many di?erent applications requireda
unique combinationofhi- level abstraction and low-level
optimization, and presented challenges di?erent from building a
monolithic distributed system. Since that ?rst conference, the
notion of what constitutes "middleware" has changed somewhat, and
the focus of research papers has changed with it. The ?rst edition
focused heavily on distributed objects as a metaphor for building
systems, including six papers with "CORBA" or "ORB" in the title.
In f- lowing years, the conference broadened to cover
publish/subscribe messaging, peer-to-peer systems, distributed
databases, Web services, and automated m- agement, among other
topics. Innovative techniques and architectures surfaced in
workshops, and expanded to become themes of the main conference,
while changes in the industry and advances in other research areas
helped to shape research agendas. This tenth edition includes
papers on next-generation pl- forms (such as stream systems,
pervasive systems and cloud systems), managing enterprise data
centers, and platforms for building other platforms, among o- ers.
