• Today distributed applications are pervasive, some very successful (e.g., Internet, P2P, social networks, cloud computing), and benefit everyone, but the design and the implementation of many of them still rely on ad-hoc techniques instead of on a solid theory. The next generation of distributed applications and services will be more and more complex and demands research efforts in establishing sound theoretical foundations to be able to master their design, their properties and their implementation. This proposal is a step in this inescapable direction.
