This book features the best papers from the First International Conference on Software and Data Technologies (ICSOFT 2006), organized by the Institute for Systems and Technologies of Information, Communication and Control (INSTICC) in collaboration with the Object Management Group (OMG). Hosted by the School of Business at the Polytechnic Institute of Setubal and sponsored by Enterprise Ireland and the Polytechnic Institute of Setúbal, the conference aimed to unite researchers and practitioners focused on information technology and software development. The conference tracks included “Software Engineering,” “Information Systems and Data Management,” “Programming Languages,” “Distributed and Parallel Systems,” and “Knowledge Engineering.” Covering a wide range of research topics and applications, the conference addressed everything from implementation issues to theoretical aspects of software engineering, databases, data warehouses, management information systems, and knowledge-based systems. It also encompassed distributed systems, pervasive computing, and data quality. A panel discussion featuring six distinguished researchers explored the future of software development, complemented by a tutorial and six keynote lectures. ICSOFT 2006 attracted 187 paper submissions from 39 countries across all continents.
