- Description: The research presented describes our approach to enabling content developers and end-users to create and/or customise distributed GIS applications dynamical-ly at run-time through the incorporation of GIS services, implemented as stand-alone components or CORBA Objects, with a specialised XML descriptor. It also looks at some of the design considerations that must be dealt with by both the client-application developer as well as the service developer, including the GIS service description, associated GUI and help system.

- Description: This volume contains the papers presented at the 5th International Workshop on Advanced Parallel Processing Technologies, APPT 2003. This series of workshops is designed to strengthen the cooperation between the German and Chinese institutions active in the area of these technologies. It has continued to grow, providing an excellent forum for reporting advances in parallel processing technologies. The 5th workshop itself addressed the entire gamut of related topics, ranging from the architectural aspects of parallel computer hardware and system software to the applied technologies for novel applica-tions. For this workshop, we received over 191 full submissions from researchers all over the world. All the papers were peer-reviewed in depth and qualitatively graded on their relevance, originality, signi?cance, presentation, and the overall appropriateness for their acceptance. Any concerns raised were discussed in the program com-mittee. The organizing committee did an excellent job in selecting 78 papers (Among them, 21 were short ones) for presentation. In short, the papers included here represent the forefront of research from China, Germany, and the other countries.

- Description: This paper presents our approach towards creating a Web-based Spatiotemporal Geographic Information System, in particular, the creation of the spatial data set and the component interaction. It explores the possibility of rendering Virtual GIS Worlds in near real time across the WWW using a standard Web browser as the user interface. A" proof of concept" Web-based VGIS application was developed to investigate methods for the efficient transfer of high-bandwidth multimedia GIS content over the WWW, as well as providing a suitable development environment for research into Web-based Temporal GIS. This paper describes how VRML and Java were used to provide the visualisation of virtual worlds, interaction with individual objects inside the virtual world, and the query tools for adding, deleting, selecting or manipulating these objects or their associated attribute data.
