Prior to 1998,there were severalmajor conferences and workshops at which research into middleware was reported, including ICODP (International Con- ference on Open Distributed Processing), ICDP (International Conference on Distributed Platforms) and SDNE (Services in Distributed and Networked En- vironments). Middleware’98 was a synthesis of these three conferences. Middleware 2000 continued the excellent tradition of Middleware’98.It pro- vided a single venue for reporting state-of-the-art results in the provision of distributed systems platforms. The focus of Middleware 2000 was the design, implementation, deployment, and evaluation of distributed systems platforms and architectures for future networked environments. Among the 70 initial submissions to Middleware 2000, 21 papers were se- lected for inclusionin the technicalprogramof the conference.Every paper was reviewedbyfourmembersoftheprogramcommittee.Thepaperswerejudgedac- cordingtotheiroriginality,presentationquality,andrelevancetothe conference topics. The accepted papers cover various subjects such as caching, reflection, quality of service, and transactions. We would like to express our deepest appreciation to the authors of the submitted papers and the program committee members for their diligence in reviewingthe submissions.We wouldalsolike to thank IFIP andACM fortheir technical sponsorship and financial support, respectively. Finally, we would like to thank the members of the steering committee and the other organizing com- mittee members for their efforts towards making Middleware 2000 a successful conference.
