Scope
=====
The third edition of the International Workshop on the Service for Large Scale Distributed Systems, SeDiS-2013 is dedicated to the dissemination and evaluation of original contributions to the architectures, techniques, protocols, components, orchestration, choreography and development related to the Service for Large Scale Distributed Systems (LSDS) with special emphasis on Cloud, Grid, P2P and Web-based systems. The purpose of the workshop is to provide an open forum for researchers from academia and industry to present, discuss, and exchange ideas, results, and expertise in the area of electronic services for large scale distributed systems. The workshop also aims at stimulating synergies between Cloud, Grid, P2P, Web-based and Sensor Network System developer communities.
