Text Box: Peer-to-peer (P2P) and Web Services (WS) technologies are currently attracting enormous media attention. In P2P systems a very large number of autonomous computing nodes (the peers) pool together their resources and rely on each other for data and services. We wish to organize a workshop to address the need for P2P technologies and platforms that support self-organization of WS, semantic WS, load balance, routing, etc. Prospective participants from academic and industrial will be invited to submit papers for presentation at the morning session of the workshop. With these as a focus we will spend the afternoon in discussion. As results of the workshop, we will prepare a report on the set of papers, useful in their own right, and our discussion about them. We hope to be able to present an immediate report to the HPCC 2009 organizers. In the call for participation, we will suggest a category structure for the P2P computing and Web services we feel are most important, such as case studies, sample exercises, and so on.
The workshop provides a forum for researchers and practitioners from academic, industrial, public and government sectors, to share their latest innovations on the P2P computing, Web services and Mobile web services technologies and applications. The workshop will be advertised through mailing lists interested in P2P and WS fields in order to ensure that a wide range of authors will participate. 
Area of interest include, but not limited to: 
Services composition in P2P Web services networks
Data placement and query answering in P2P systems
Transaction management for P2P Web services
Autonomous peers and semantic Web
Self-organization and emergent behavior in P2P systems
Resource allocation in P2P systems and Web services
Scalability, coordination, robustness and adaptability in P2P and Web services
Autonomic Web Services in P2P systems
Semantic Web services Overlay Networks
Mobile Web services.
