IFIP –The International FederationforInformationProcessing
IFIPwas foundedin 1960underthe auspicesof UNESCO, followingthe First World
ComputerCongressheldinParisthepreviousyear.Anumbrellaorganizationforsoci-

IFIP is a non-profitmakingorganization,run almost solely by 2500 volunteers. It
operatesthrougha numberoftechnicalcommittees,whichorganizeeventsandpubli-

Preface
This proceedings book, which collects selected results produced in engineering doc-
toral programs, focuses on developmentand application of Cloud-based Engineering
Systems.Thesesystemsleveragetheemerging“networkeffect”andrelyontheaccess
tolargepoolsofcomputationalresourcesthatareavailablein the“cloud” to overcome
the limitations of environments with scarceprocessingandinformationstorageca-
pability. Potentialbenefitscanbefoundinallengineeringfieldsandatalllevels,e.g.,
supportingmanagement,operation,andservicesprovisioninsmallandmediumenter-
prises, facilitating high-levelsensorialperceptionbasedon sensor networkswith lim-
itedlocalintelligence,supportingmonitoring,anddiagnosisofamachinewithlimited
computerpower,etc.
This approach is changing the way engineeringsystems are designed, giving rise
to new subareas such as the so-called cloud manufacturing,while leading to exciting
challengesforresearchersandindustrialpractitioners.Insteadoftryingtoincreaselocal
computational resources at the level of each component/ subsystem, which in some
cases might be technically difficult, the efforts can be channeled to give connectivity
and communicationcapabilitiesto suchcomponents,connectingthem to “thecloud”.
Asaresult,notonlyelasticityandmorerobustsecuritymechanismsmaybeacquired,
but also wider access to larger pools of resources available on the Internet, opening
the opportunity for the development of higher value-added services. Furthermore, it
also challengessystemsengineersto payattentionto theunderlyingbusinessmodels,
securityconcerns,anduseracceptabilityaspects.

from doctoral research in these interrelated areas of engineering, while promoting a
strongmultidisciplinarydialog.Assuch,participantswerechallengedto lookbeyond
theirspecificresearchquestionandrelatetheirworktotheselectedthemeofthecon-
ference, namely to identify in which ways their research topics can benefit from, or
contribute to cloud-basedsolutions. Currenttrends in strategic research programsare
confirmingthefundamentalroleofmultidisciplinaryandinterdisciplinaryapproaches
in innovation.Asa matteroffact,moreandmorefundingagenciesare includingthis

skills,whicharemandatoryintheprofessionofaPhD.
ThesixtheditionofDoCEIS,whichissponsoredbySOCOLNET,IFIP,andIEEE
IES, attracted a considerable number of paper submissions from a large number of
PhDstudentsandtheirsupervisorsfrom23countries.Thisbookcomprisestheworks
